Post ".O.N.E. .P.I.E.C.E. 123-124" by "studiogek" from patreon

Matt Haloostock

Building off the Game of Thrones mention at the end, I think that part of the reason that I and many others hate season 7 and 8 is because the story was so poorly written. If George wanted to do some of the same themes like Dany going mad and the white walkers aren't the final bad guys, it would be better accepted as long as it is still congruent with everything else that is happening. D and D had no idea how to create their own mysterious and compelling. Although I would definitely still hate if Arya kills the Night King (especially with a knife trick while jumping past a bunch of white walkers).

xSaorix

Love that Berserk manga on the table

Mauricio

One piece nation are we ready to see some peak today ?

Benjamin Knock

One pace is a joke, it absolutely destroys the narrative flow of the animations, unfortunately yiu cant just cut stuff out and call it a day, music being one of the most pivotal parts of anime gets all chopped up and ruins any sense of continuity within the scene

Marcos

I legit want them to see “that” one day because it will blow their minds

Nicholas R. Gonzales

They don’t even know how important the next arc is to overall story. Manga cooking rn

Marcus

People are only asking for one pace next saga because it’ll help you get through the content faster as you are only doing 4 episodes a week. The pacing for the pre time skip is fine, using one pace now will be more of a disservice than service to your watching experience. The commenters are just impatient. You’d get way less suggestions for one pace right now if you did more than 4 eps p/w(not suggesting you should). Also the boys already know about a time skip so don’t worry.

rhett donaldson

Don’t get me wrong, I agree that the original anime is the best way to watch the first half of the show…but when you’re only watching 4 episodes a week, I think it’s a toss up. I used arc instead of saga in my comment but to be fair, One Pace detracts nothing from the episodes you mentioned imo. But yeah, the next arc per se doesn’t really need One Pace because it’s on the shorter side, but I don’t think using it would detract from the experience. Honestly, if we stick to this same schedule of 4 episodes a week, I would argue it will enhance it for them. In the end, I trust Jack, so whatever he decides, I’m cool with

Fatima

Especially the episodes from 144 to 151 and 186 to 189 are important, so please watch them in the normal version.

Fatima

Please, guys, I beg you not to watch One Pace for the next arc just yet. You really only need One Pace from around episode 500 onwards. The reason is that, from that point on, many episodes adapt only one manga chapter or sometimes even just half a chapter per anime episode. For example, you might see random people running or looking shocked for five minutes straight, which is why One Pace becomes so necessary. In contrast, earlier episodes often covered 4–5 chapters at a time. So, you really don’t need to watch the entire next arc in One Pace, especially since it’s a very important arc for the story.

Fatipapi

Miss Fathers Day lmaooo

Fatipapi

How can luffy crack his knuckles audibly when he's rubber 😂

greyxwaren

jack struggling to share his thoughts pertaining to what the one piece might be without spoiling is so real lmaoo it's so hard to say anything at this point since the show and the audience are supposed to think of it in a basic though process of it being a treasure so saying anything even hypothesizing might be considered a spoiler even though we ourselves have no idea what it is at all except that it is something tangible and not he friends we made along the way. all theories might alter the way y'all think about the one piece so it might be best not to dwell on it too much until the show shift its focus on it

Marcus

@zippity I love your comments bro😂🔥

Marcus

Ngl, it’s like a lot of people are saying, you’re going to have to catch up to the manga at some point if you don’t want to be spoiled on the one piece reveal. Because once it happens, it’s over, everyone will know before the anime gets to it, you’d have to be an isolationist with no internet or radio to not know 😂😭

Marcus

X

AV

yeah I don't want them to use One Pace at all but if they are going to use it, they should use it sparingly.

Ben Dalgliesh

Aot 2.0 tonight?

An

i dont think they even need one pace for most of the long arc

Enma

Sucks that she died, she was a really interesting character. 😔😔

Liam

WHERE IS NARUTO

AV

Can people stop saying One Pace for the next arc. The next arc is small and I will be pissed if they used One Pace for it. What you actually mean is the long arc after the next. After episode 152.

Studio Geck

😂😂😂

brog.

she is my pfp because she is my glorious queen. please glaze her as such

Jan

I second this ☝🏻

Michael

One pace time

rhett donaldson

When Carter starts stretching, you know he has a lot he wants to say lmfao. Loving it, and I envy Mckay wanting to binge (definitely a better experience). I agree with the suggestions for One Pace in the next arc and I feel for Jack in this reaction, because I'm caught up as well and feel the same way. Great content as usual, and the next upload (episode 126) is my personal favorite you'll have seen so far. Tuesday can't come soon enough! (Also Mckay, Berserk is so peak, I'm sitting next to my deluxe collection right now. So happy you're enjoying it)

Smoore

Brig definitely said “Yeah imma delete this whole thread.” And Mckay said his own stuff. I said something like “ I Have not seen the show but i know some names. When do we see x,y,z.” Is that different from what happens here

GreetswithJudgement

❤️

Sasha

I feel like Cannon vs Brig boxing match is happening soon

Sasha

Is that the first true introduction to one of Zoro's main themes?😂

Karlsefni

@Smoore, SPOILERS‼️- SPOILERS - SPOILERS - SPOILERS‼️ - SPOILERS‼️ I remember that comment thread - it's still up to this day, Brig never ended up deleting it. The difference is I think Brig & McKay just shout out random names with no context for time to time but you were asking a specific question of when certain characters would show up that have only been slightly mentioned in the show thus far. Characters that the geks presume to be dead or the story/dialogue has show cased them no longer being present. You weren't directly spoiling anything but if one of the geks were to read it, they may have drawn assumptions that would have slightly spoiled their experience. As for Brig & McKay, I don't watch all the one piece uploads so I don't know if this is the case. But if what they’re also doing is similar & possibly ruining the experience for the other geks, your comment is completely fair.

Sasha

Damn. Brig has that selective hearing.

Sasha

Those gifts were insane. That fidget spinner is my favorite😍

ssj4rit

Only 6 more episodes until 20 more episodes until 100 more episodes until 50 more episodes until PEAK

Marcos

Anyone read the last one piece chapter. I legit need someone to talk this with because OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Markus

After next arc please do one pace 🙏 next arc pacing is actually fair compared to the other arcs surrounding it

Emily

Yeah he right lol

Dylan Roy

Only 6 more episodes of alabasta!!

Amare D.

I said the same thing

kuza

im sure a long watch session will come eventually also

Ryker

they’re also gonna use one pace for some of the arcs with exceptionally bad pacing so that will get them caught up faster

Ante

It's so hard not to talk about this stuff, the manga is on an AMAZING run right now.

Martin Squanch

Yeah i calculated with all episodes left up to now. But i assume many will be skipped because of filler. So it will be not actually October 2029, only in the worst case.

kuza

holy shit actually?

kuza

no way one piece pacing isnt good?!?!?!

kuza

i truly cant wait for the day gek is caught up to one piece and cooking up theorys

Martin Squanch

If our Gek boys keep a pace of 4 episodes a week we reach episode 1122 around October 2029.

Neant

It’s cooking so hard that I guess One Piece theorists are busy now

cdstr

hey jack, watching you react to the boys is so funny to me because you are saying the same thing i would want to say. especially your facial expressions. having watched one piece like you, i can kinda guess what you are thinking when the boys say something. sometimes they tend to have a bad reaction to something on screen and i can see you immediately go to defend it. i get it because i feel the same way. i think you should let them say something bad without correcting them or always defending it right away. its hard to watch one piece again without thinking about what you already know. (not talking about spoiling though. the boys give you a hard time for one word you said, if it ends up being right. even though that might be the most logical answer. watching it for the first time.) but just your opinions on characters, knowing there backstory. knowing when it gets good and bad in the arcs, anything like that. you dont know anything about that the first time watching, so i think it definitely affects their watch. its not that big a deal but i like hearing what the other 4 come up with on their own. its super cool when they get to the ideas on their own, without a comment or two from you. there is so much to talk about in the episodes, that i think you avoid saying some stuff. but also i love hearing your opinions too about one piece. its gotta be so hard being the only one whose watched, especially for one piece. i cant imagine. i hate spoilers, but thats just for myself. i guess thats why i care about this. but when it comes to haku, theres nothing you can do about that. youll just have to deal with it lol. sorry for the paragraph. just thinking about this. feel free to disregard. love the reacts, boys. my favorite reactors on youtube. keep it up.

saDbo

It's so fun reading everyone's theories about that last double spread. The final saga is cooking

SammieO

Agreed, they literally could finish it all next week.

kaan

3+3 episodes to finish up Alabasta next week, give it a thought 👀

kaan

“That hole looks gator-ish”. That is hilarious lmao and actually when you look sideways, it looks kinda like it lol. Luffy covering himself in his own blood to beat up crocodile goes so hard

Brianna Tsao

Ok so I wasn’t tripping, the hardcover of Berserk really is on the table 👀

Nanashi

I get the sentiment but a bad ending can ruin a lot either way

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)

The thing about Oda hes said it before and keeps saying until this day, Oda is going to write the story how he wants and hes going to end to his liking he doesnt get swayed much by anybody. Is just so happens that everything that hes done thus far resonates with the fan base. Dont get me wrong theres some plot holes and things the fan base disagrees with but thats what happens when you been writing a such complex story for 25 years.

Neemz

Bro that final double spread changed my life. Goda

Sanji

He said he used one pace which only has sub. Maybe it’s my biased nostalgia but dub for pre-2010 anime are kinda goated! (FMAB, death note, code geass, ghibli, cowboy bebop, dragon ball, Naruto, etc).

TrueCrisp

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO ***DO NOT*** READ THE TITLE FOR EPISODE 130

GreetswithJudgement

Second this. My personal favorite.

Mitch

Yea it’s actually mind boggling how 1000 chapters later Oda can explain and tie together stuff in such a cohesive manner. It makes these early arcs feel infinitely more important.

TT1000

Love the Karasuno banner there!

MrP

I’m sure the final will be extremely touching. Never doubted Oda’s storytelling skills. I’m just not ready for this. And thank you for appreciating my post!❤️

MrP

yeah I don’t really care what one piece is at this point, there’s so many other more interesting things

MrP

nah just drunk

Neant

Gotcha, that makes sense. I won’t be surprised if some details changed, but I feel the main story is quite consistent.

Marcus

It’s not a rumour he talked about it in an interview, but it’s not really that he hates it. He just likes subverting and surprising his viewers, so if he’s seen a bunch of the public guess some plot points, he would sometimes change it. Don’t worry though he won’t change the main points he wants to tell. He also said something along the lines of that he used to look at fan theories online. But because all of the hardcore theorists occasionally guessing his big plot reveals he felt the need to one up his original plans, so he stopped looking at them and focused on aiming his writing at casual readers who would still be shocked, and that it is what it is if the dedicated theorists predicted them.

rain

I’m so ready to rewatch skypeia with them after this chapter😭

Studio Geck

Trust me im enjoying the adventure! I have really like this show from the beginning!

Neant

I doubt this rumor. There are a lot of hints and foreshadowing in early chapters, like "raftel", Oda played with the Japanese characters in the begining of the series, no one knows what it means, and 1000 chapters later, iykyk, its one of the most satisfing revealing. I watched one video by Ohara, acturally Oda put a lot of hints in drawing and the use of Japanese characters which are difficult to notice. The new chapter released further proved that he planned everything early on. I feel that actually it could be he draws the picture in the new chapter at the very beginging of the series and then elaborated it. Thats why we viewers feel everything planned and well connected.

Rayanh LaNansha

Yes!! Miss All Sunday, of course!!

jrnoodles

Thanks! I think I read somewhere, don't know if it's true, that Oda hates people guessing his plot points so he changes them whenever he can. It feels fake though.

Neant

Anyone read the new 1138 chapter? Wholly... hearing Carter suspicious of the ending of One Piece and then see that chapter…. All I want to say now is y’all need to trust Jack and Oda and catch up as quickly as you can. Jack spitting facts it makes sense but also mind blowing.

Sandi

Carter, relax. Trust the process. Just enjoy the adventure😏 I trust Oda that man is a genius 😤

Ryker

it seems like mkay and brig are getting way more invested and i love to see it

AV

Crocodile, Ace, Luffy... and Miss All Sunday.

AV

With Jack, you never know if he is spoiling or just making shit up.

Jasmin☆

next week uploads pls be 3 eps each to finish the arc🙂‍↕️🙏🏼

AV

He should post arc reviews

AV

He watches it in dub...

jack-o-nami-swaaan

Perfect example of a video where 3 or 4 episodes would've been better. The pacing simply demands it.

Mitch

McKay said he was

Neant

And he was a big hater in the beginning.

Hem-ehem

Just popping in for a sec to look at the Haikyu poster at the back! 🫶 That 4D GOT throne is awesome!

Sanji

Yall see the video where Moistcritikal said One Piece is his favorite franchise now.

davosmith1

yall gotta get that utah mammoths merch 🔥🔥🔥

Sanji

I get what Jack is saying at the end. He’s spitting facts

bebe

ohh that haikyu poster in the back ✨✨

maddie bloom

honestly, no ending will be good enough. we all have our expectations, and they may not all be met. one piece has built up for over 2 decades, and there are so many threads in play. it's interesting rewatching because you can see those threads but do not know where they go. you guys understand since you are rewatching aot. you get to see things you were not aware of before.

Mauricio

Ooh right, I Forgot about that episode! But asking for 6 episodes with the schedule that they have, and the answers to add more episodes that they’ve given, it’s kinda unrealistic 💔 but you never know, maybe they surpise us.

Trznk

Jack was trying to explain that this story is very well planned that mysteries all connect. As the story unfolds, crazy revelations recontextulise prior plot points and weave together the narrative expanding world into greater depths & u realise the intention behind everything. One Piece lore and world building is unlike any other. It’s the main strong point of this series - not the fights the story itself. That’s why it keeps getting better and better and is the massive success that it is. It truly lives up to its reputation you’ll see :)

psychotaco343

I think it’s 6ep for the full conclusion of the arc

Trznk

I had the same thought when I started this series “It’s bound to be disappointing” but realised how well planned this story is as as the story unfolds. One Piece goes on strong. It’s been planned from the end not the start. Its layers upon layers as u go through u question how on earth did one person write this and manage to connect everything so well

psychotaco343

Also y’all got 6ep left i think y’all should just finish next week in one shot even if we don’t get one piece for a week I feel like it’s a good trade off I’d love to see y’all’s reaction to the whole concussion of the acr?

Trznk

Nico Robin, the ponaglyph & the lore is the heights of this arc.

Nick K

As an anime only watcher, with everything going on in the show before the break, there are so many big things I'm concerned with beyond the One Piece. I'm curious for sure, but I'm so curious about so many other things that I feel like it's guaranteed to have a a lot of highs at the end even if it doesn't hit all of them perfectly

Zannen Da

Just do two triple episodes video. Then you’ll be done with the saga.

Smoore

Well Mckay, I am not going to search through all the videos, but Brig said he would delete the whole thread and yours was along the lines of “bruh”

Cannon Andrus

Hoarding? Was I boarding 😭😭ohhhh like keeping it at my house

sil

it's always a good day when there's a new OP reaction ♡

McKay Carter

What comment are you referring to?

Neant

You said it beautifully ❤️I thought the same before the ‘he laughed’ episode. But after seeing that I have the hope that Oda would not only making the puzzle completing process satisfying but also the ‘completed puzzle picture’ itself could be something soul touching.

Chérissa

I wish more people had this comprehension for One Piece instead of random excuses and bullshit🫠. One Piece has always been about the journey and rarely ever about the destination.

Mauricio

Next week, if you guys post 3 episodes on Thursday, will mark the end of the Alabasta saga. Fingers crossed for a 3 episodes drop on Thursday <3

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

ho is you poet

MrP

I thought a little about your thoughts at the end of the video and came to the conclusion that no ending to One Piece would be good. It's no secret that One Piece is not just about adventure, One Piece is adventure itself for everyone who watches / reads it. I came to a rather trivial comparison with a puzzle. Watching One Piece is like putting together a puzzle, only the pieces are scattered all over the world and you have to go on a round-trip adventure. You also don't even know the approximate size of the final puzzle. Sometimes you find a piece and it continues the main picture, for example, the sky, without adding anything new. Sometimes the piece doesn't fit anywhere and you put it aside until better times or forget about it altogether. And in some happy moments, the found piece either opens a new detail in the full picture (it turns out there is a sun in this endless sky ), or it fits that long-forgotten piece and now both pieces have meaning. I haven't read Song of Ice and Fire, but I have watched Game of Thrones. It's an amazing show, but the narrative model is different (though I think Carter's comparison is apt). But still, in Game of Thrones, the ending was very important. In One Piece, after the last big arc, I realized that I don't really care what a One Piece is or who finds it. When I finish putting the puzzle together and put it on the shelf, I'll feel happy for a split second, but then disappointment and emptiness will set in. It sounds pretentious now, but maybe someday you'll share my feelings. So my fear is not that One Piece will and badly, but that it will end someday.

Neant

Carter, let Oda cook, I don’t think he has been rewriting, at one point of the story you will have the strong feeling that Oda already decided what the One Piece is. Jack we feel you.

Mahti

Arguably the best manga ever

Amare D.

Maybe double triple drops next week to finish the arc 😙

MrP

Yeah OP manga is arguably the best manga ever. I feel like remake is going to be peak but some people will be disappointed about some cut out scenes. Like in FMI remake they cut out one of the funniest conversations ever lol. Anyway I can’t wait to see the remake too!

Asbjørn Kennedy

Hold up, I don’t know for how long it’s been there but I noticed the Berserk manga on the table. Which of the Geks are reading Berserk?!

psychotaco343

Luffys gonna give the One Piece to Zoro then no one will find it not even Oda?!

Zannen Da

Is he liking the eclipse? Cuz the eclipse is the fifth DE volume thats on the table.

Nick K

I would say pacing definitely slowed down. Stuff lingered longer than it should have, or things were restated more than they needed to be. Also some flashbacks thrown in lightly here and there and it's definitely fine but slower than it's been

Zannen Da

Take whatever Jackson says with a grain of salt. Like ¼ teaspoon.

saDbo

@Vega imo the theory is still valid, even with current lore. It's just incomplete/needs some updating

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

I know that panel and I'm not even 50 episodes ahead of them 😂

Marine Piece!!!

Facts the manga has been cooking a long time 🔥

Zipzzty

Carter cooking at the end ofc some people will be disappointed but majority will probably love the ending imo cause oda is goatda

Zipzzty

“He laughed” iykyk

Zipzzty

@Vega going to be the biggest reveal in anime history

Zipzzty

Cause The Manga Was Goated from 1-1138

Zipzzty

The remake is gonna cook Cause Manga was Goated from chapter 1-1138

Zipzzty

One Piece Lore and Mysteries too goated

Zipzzty

Nah Bro i don’t how i was watching ts One Piece Remake finna cook

Zenah

I get what jack talked about (the idea of the one piece) ,Because I also thought of it. And I absolutely believe oda will hold that into until we reach the one piece.

Vega

What episode are you on, Jack?

beannieswife

mckay's impression of crocodile killed me😭 and i truly understand what carter is saying, when i watched alabasta for the first time i was feeling the same ngl, but i realized that it's because it feels like some events are not adding much to the bigger picture of the show, at least that's how i felt as a first time watcher around these eps, i'm excited to know your thoughts at the end of the arc! the last few eps were a game changer for me

Vega

I used to think it was the inherited will theory as well but based on the manga and how things are going.. thats way down the list at this point. Most recent chapters are answering a lot of questions and putting things together.

Maj

Greatest backstory of all time btw, unbelievable viewing

Nonos

I saw McKay make a comment on another video and say he’s reading and loving it

saDbo

There's an old theory about what the One Piece is (inherited will theory) and imo it's still the best one on the matter, but even that one doesn't explain everything.. There are too many mysteries in this show Also, really excited for the next two episodes! Especially 126 🔥 it's so good

Crimson Fire

Getting answers from One Piece is just as bad as the anime's pacing. I swear Oda loves keeping people guessing for years, if not decades, before revealing some answers. New fans are lucky to binge the series.

Jackson Carter

Iykyk, I was just trying not to say too much while explaining that I have an idea as to what some of the One Piece could be. And if you’ve seen far enough into the show then you know what I’m talking about

Jackson Carter

I don’t have a theory about what it is physically, just the info stuff I was referring too which I’m sure lots of people know about. Plus I just watched some certain backstory episodes in Wano that really confirmed what I was thinking….

MrP

wow the pacing is horrible again

Amare D.

NEVER!

kingkoopa98

Which one of you is reading Berserk?

Nick K

I feel like Jack is too much of a One Piece apologist and feels he has to add info or pre-explain stuff more than he should be. It's ok to just let it breathe, we're happy they're watching too but I'd say less is more from people that already know the show unless they are asking something that is minor to answer. Or like ask questions but keep them vague and don't respond to their answers. Like you can start a conversation (example: Mihawk V Crocodile) but don't engage in it. Just my opinion, not hating.

Ari

same, Alabasta isn't in my top 10 either lol. Can't wait for them to start what's next

Chrisiyyi

by the time the boys reach where we at now the show might already be ended ayyy

Rayanh LaNansha

Maaan, I love how you guys just take the time to reminisce about all the ways in which Luffy amuses you after the episode ends. Can’t wait for you guys to see the many peak moments of his journey. While Alabasta doesn’t rank in my top 10 arcs, characters like Crocodile, Ace and Luffy himself really make it up for me.

GreetswithJudgement

❤️

sesaka

I understand what Jackson meant during that conversation about the One Piece. We already know a lot about what we will eventually learn when it is found, and we are aware of some 'prophecies' regarding what will happen narratively afterward. While the physical nature of the One Piece remains unknown, as fans, we understand the significance that finding or discovering it will have on the world. but if jackson has an actual theory of what the one piece PHYSICALLY is, id be intrigued to hear it from him, in maybe a spoiler thread or something.

Sly

Eyyy decorations on the walls looking extra juicy🔥

GreetsWithJudgement u the goat

Smoore

Brig (especially) and Mckay keep talking about future characters and arcs in these OP videos and I guess that's fine (not even referring to this video). But why was Brig then angry and deleting my comment after I asked about and mentioned the name of a future character from one of his fave anime. Just like you, I have not completely watched that anime but i know some names because of social media.

spoons

Ok the “He’s got blood all over him” is so crazy 😂😂

Emily

Yall need to watch more episodes the manga is just too good rn 🤭

Aidan O'Neill

I get what jacks talking abt, u just need to watch more

GreetswithJudgement

Nooo don’t think that way! 😭 my favorite gift the Geks received wasn’t even from me!! All gifts matter!

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

All I was thinking while seeing all those gifts were how If I were to send them something it would never surpass it 😂

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

😔 You can try to binge ( 2-3 episodes more than usual) when things get really heated in some arcs ( like Pain arc in Naruto, best arc in the whole show), but you don't have to post it. Post regular number of episodes and watch more if you have time.

Fatipapi

take that back 💀💀

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

Jack confused me at the end 😂😂 also, I don't agree with Carter about pacing of these episodes. For me, it was quite good. I guess he is more sensitive to little changes in pacing 🤔

GreetswithJudgement

Aww thank you Zip!! ❤️

Zipzzty

Ur the goat the gifts were amazing

GreetswithJudgement

I appreciate it!! ❤️

GreetswithJudgement

Cannon hoarding it is like the most Cannon thing ever lol Anyway, thanks for all you do Geks! The easiest part is finding stuff you’ll like, the hardest part is making sure it arrives lol Enjoy! (Oh and the mini light saber chopsticks were cheap so I won’t be surprised if some don’t work😂)
