The hate for the Skypiea arc is honestly misinterpreted. The arc isn't the problem, and the pacing has been like that throughout the anime and hasn't changed that much in the 1100's episodes, so really, people/fans are just complaining about the pacing in general. Shut up and admit you liked the arcs, some are just more interesting than others; given the info, but the pacing is the same formula lol.

I think it's that Robin's voice sometimes goes a little breathless that makes it sound a little weak, yeah. This is where Zoro’s attacks start to become really interesting! Also impossible to give a short translation, lol. We’re going into Buddhism here, with the 36 disturbances/destructive passions/ill desires, ”bonnō”. So the pronunciation for the above is ”36 bonnō hō” , but the way it’s written to be pronounced in the manga is ”36 pond(o) hō”. Which means ”36 pound cannon”. As in old military cannons whose power was measured in pounds. Because Oda loves himself a pun. Shame about the animation budget apparently taking a hit in this episode, too. I don’t really felt it made the attack justice: https://i.imgur.com/31W5dXN.gif What I do think that they should have made a bit of an effort with in the translation is Zoro’s comments afterwards. He’s so much of a samurai here, with his expressions! It’s something along the lines of: ”I am pained for your sake. I bear you no ill will, but… I'm not such a fine jewel of a person to let myself be killed just because I’m asked to. I will take up the challenge… of this survival game.”

I enjoy One Pace a lot, but I really wish they would be a little more flexible with their editing criteria instead of strictly sticking to the manga. Like not including Enel joining the game and Sanji attacking him is just a straight up bizarre decision.

Kayanolive

Its alr to be wrong sometimes

Kayanolive

Thats how the manga went no?

El

I see none of you (geks) are answering any question, even on discord (apologies if you did and I just missed it), regarding what happened to the upload of OP 150-151. Is it because of the chaos that is the comment section? Did you hide it temporarily to clean up the mess? 😶

brog.

McKay dont even try it buddy

greyxwaren

crazy since i hate the dub specifically for luffy lmao he sounds like when i read stories to my son and have to make up a “boy” voice. and if you wanna go “well she is a female voice actor pretending to be a boy” that argument is invalid when you have VAs such as romi park, junko takeuchi and mariya Ise who can voice both men AND women without sounding fake or cringy. but again that’s my personal opinion

Benjamin Knock

Vivis english voice actor is easily on par with her japanese one

MegMegMegg

I feel like I mention this every week, but if you guys love Luffy singing, there are TONS of songs recorded by the voice cast in character. An account called POLARIS LEI on YouTube has almost all of them with the english translations

Touchmi

So for context, Enel joins the "game" and shows up to the Going Merry and Sanji attacks him. You can expect more of this lack of context with One Pace.

Touchmi

Not liking Robin's voice are fighting words brother

Touchmi

The Luffy song in English dub is equally as bad and funny as it is in sub. Colleen Clinkenbeard (Fun Fact she is the VA for Hawkeye in Fullmetal Alchemist dub) does a wonderful job voicing Luffy. Her and Christopher Sabat (Voice actor for Vegeta in Dragonball) as Zoro are like the key reasons why I started my English dub watch of One Piece. Also fun fact Oda hand picks every actor and voice actor for the straw hats in every version of One Piece.

Touchmi

I'm a firm believer that anyone who says, "Pacing is bad" isn't caught up. Or started watching at post time skip or something because honestly 1100 episodes, it isn't enough.

Touchmi

No hes on like 917 or something. I think he stopped so the Geks could catch up

Janine

Oh wait, is he caught up with the anime?

Janine

Hi Jack! Are you going to watch the new OP episodes in April, or will you wait for the others?

Nat_off

Robin’s voice = Mommy’s voice

Veronia

Literally no registration of what he said🤣 but we getting that realization from them soon enough💜

greyxwaren

now that i’m thinking about it some of these had decent pacing and issues would come from the fights (what’s new) for example people who want EL to be one pace, y’all’s issue is with the fighting so jack you might wanna switch to one pace for fights only?

greyxwaren

i rewatched it multiple time with multiple members of my family and trust me when i say this is not the point they start noticing its importance. even ponyglyphs. went straight over my siblings heads when it was first mentioned. only noticed during EL and i had to bring up these scenes of robin every time she split from the group to explore just to remind them

Fatipapi

Just straight up ignored Jacks fishing hook 😂😂😂 it just went straight over their heads. However, i do feel like if they had not been yapping during that scene, they probably wouldve been like “hmmm whats that JACK??”. Ah well, itll come back into the picture soon enough

Veronia

I was dying laughing when they missed it🤣 and jack tryna bring it up later was so funny too

Veronia

Literally perfect list!!

Neant

Yeah I thought the same when I was watching the reaction but my 2nd thought is that tbf as a first time watcher its not easy to figure out which plot or lore is important at this point. Other reactors I watched also didnt notice it (except for H&K). I believe they will gradually realize that One Piece is more than just a battle shonen. On the other hand, applause to Carter that he noticed it and is interested. 👏👏

Fatipapi

Cant believe yall yapped through Robin mentioning one of the biggest mysteries in OP lore and didn’t even discuss it afterwards 🥲🥲💔

Fatipapi

30:50 bruh i read “..and catch up to Enels prostate”

Fatipapi

LET’S FUCKING GOOOO

Super Novice

Oh it definitely takes getting used to, but Robin is definitely unique in so many ways, she’s very different to Nami and I like the contrast of both ladies

Super Novice

Nami and Robin have interesting backstories, are insanely crucial to the crew, probably the two most intelligent crew members. They fight, they get hurt and have narrative depth (which we will see aloooot more of) just because they’re hot and show their bodies doesn’t negate that. Hot girls can be powerful, respectable also.

Super Novice

Zoros VA is awesome I also like robins Each to their own I guess

Super Novice

Robins dub voice is definitely one of the better in the dub. But I still like her sub a lot

greyxwaren

my suggestion: LRLL: one pace W7: regular EL: regular post EL: one pace TB: one pace SA: regular AL: regular ID: regular MF: one pace (too much running guys) post MF: regular R2SA: regular FMI: idk either watch the remaster or one pace based on your preference PH: one pace DR: one pace Z: regular WCI: one pace RV/LV: one pace (they stretched it out so much it should’ve been 5-6 episodes) WN act 1: one pace rest of WN regular

Marcus

It becomes very endearing after a certain amount of time

Marcus

Women in their twenties can sound that deep. Robin is 28yo and at the time of this episode her VA was 38, so 10 year difference.

Marcus

It’s too soon to say this. It implies a lot. Hold off until the end of the arc and let oda&Enel cook and marinate first. Oda didn’t tell us that fact until after the arc was finished.

greyxwaren

also translating tanuki instead of raccoon just straight up assuming we speak japanese 😭🤣

greyxwaren

agreed! i have thoughts on him but i’ll save them for the end of the arc

greyxwaren

i disagree i personally like her voice (or maybe it grew on me) but i think they were going for “mature attractive lady” considering she’s the oldest out of the strawhats rn and the sub does a great job at it. (plus i hate dub one piece so much so i dont have anything to compare it to lol)

Jasmin☆

idk if it’s just me but her sub voice sounds old for her age

Jasmin☆

robin’s dub voice>>>>>

sil

chopper is so smol thats baby

watch orb

I switched from Dub to Sub to use One Pace. I ended up getting used to the voices and liked it even more except for: Robin and Sanji. Their change in voices also felt like a negative change in personality/vibe.

watch orb

I will say the people in “No Difference” are actually better in JP than ENG but not so much where it matters. I enjoyed them both in English and in JP

watch orb

ENG VA better: Sanji, Robin JP VA better: Luffy, Zoro, All side characters No Difference: Nami, Chopper, Ussop

wanira 11

Bro you know way too much about this

Rayanh LaNansha

😂😂

Mahti

Zoros voice is perfection

Keiji

A tanuki is a raccoon dog.

Frozzen Edge

Good points

Nami Swannn

Oh you’re right! I didn’t even notice I put 20, I knew they were the same age my mistake

Apex

Having the show spoiled when I watched weekly was rough

Apex

Please finish Wano before watching RED

Veronia

LRLI for sure needs one pace if you watching it, but I would suggest watching 5 eps and not doing the last ep with one pace, switch back to regular show after the 5th EP instead of after the 6th EP, personally I don’t think one pace does W7 justice but that’s just my personal opinion💜

Veronia

YESSS PLEASE!

Cannon Andrus

Right

Zipzzty

😭 same with shanks and Mihawk Just shows who’s really superior

Jonas Teigen

one piece has the worst dub ever its crazy

Dasha

Brig said he wonders how Luffy's singing sounds in English dub and I checked it out. Well I wish I didn't

Keanu Cullen

Different camera angle got me tripping out

Marcus

Yes lol, zoro is taller than sanji by less than half an inch😂🤓

Marcus

Please edit out the name of that, they haven’t been told what it’s called yet.

Marcus

I think it is the popular opinion Sandi. At least in my experience haha. The main criticism I hear is that it’s too much musical and not enough shanks. I like the idea of how it is, although I haven’t seen it yet.

greyxwaren

pausing to say after alabasta luffy almost lost the *piece of paper* ace gave him so nami sewed it to the inside of the red ribbon on the hat and added a string so it doesn’t keep flying off. i think it was in the episodes you skipped im not sure

shlumlord

YEEESSSSS

Zipzzty

Actually Zoro is 1 cm taller than sanji and yes it’s definitely intentional

Zipzzty

W mention fr

Zipzzty

Zoro’s voice fits him perfectly

Sandi uchiha

Unpopular opinion: film red is not that good

Sandi uchiha

“Only use women for nudity” Sir, nami and robin are used to further the plot as well and are probably some of the best written female characters in anime. Put some respect on my gurls.

Marcus

Dont froget that characters like robin and Nami are pirates, avoiding law and seeking freedom and dreams, they aren’t concerned with fitting into social norms/order and maintaining a modest reputation. If you pay attention to the islands and societies we see in the show, most side and background female citizens are modestly and appropriately dressed. I think it’s just a big overreacting by you. Rant over. P.s. I’m not supporting every choice oda makes in that manner but I’m not against it either. It’s his story and all of that stuff he does fits realistically in the world he’s established. The way he writes many female characters is respectful in terms of writing them with quality, instead of getting the common shallow shonen girl. That’s was what I meant by respect.

Marcus

As for the appearance stuff…are you saying there aren’t mamy women who want to show a lot of skin or are you saying that women shouldn’t show that much skin? Have you not thought that there are narrative points and character personalities traits that lead to such wardrobe choices? I’m sure oda often does it for the appeal, but he often shows men shirtless and showing a lot of skin, do you find a problem with that. Yeah oda is often generous with how much skin he shows, but why is that a bad thing? Majority of the time it’s not presented in a negative tone and it’s just presenting natural parts of the human figure that exists, majority of the time the characters in question don’t seem to be bothered or harmed by it. So how is any of that disrespectful? It just seems like it’s something that doesn’t meet your standards.

Marcus

… respect in how he has the characters fight on their own, not just always whining & relying on others to save them. He also has them make as big of an impact and provide value equal to their male counterparts, sometimes out shining them while also having the opposite occur . He explores their internal struggles and insecurities and has them address them. He treats them as full characters, like he does for all of his characters really/mostly. That’s how he respects them.

Marcus

Just to be clear. Skypiea is very high up in the sky with no safe way of getting there, it’s extremely risky to attempt the travel, therefore not many people get to visit. Though pirates have reached it and brought back evidence of the,(wavers/dials), it seems to be an Urban legend or non existence to most people. Even the residence of jaya, directly below skypiea, joke about its existence. From that we can gather that at least skypiea isn’t common knowledge to the world therefore not publicly recognised by the world government. This also could explain why we haven’t seen a marine presence in this arc. So in summary I wrote everything above just to tell YOU🫵, Cannon,…that the gun slinging Shandian would not likely know about the infamous (GOAT) pirate hunter Zoro.😂

Frozzen Edge

But I agree with you about the depth of female characters

Frozzen Edge

This has to be a joke, what respect he he shows them half naked 90% of time, it would be soo nice if oda could make one piece like hxh and not fan service and use women nudity 24/7

Ari

my preference...?

Pudding

One Pace feels super nice🤔

kuza

ok what are we even saying now...

Ari

I like Robin's voice and dislike Zoro's

Trznk

Carter is spot on with the lore behind Robin and her journey to uncover the history- it’s the main highlight of this arc not the conflicts & fights, not even Enel. So HYPED for the next saga/arc 😮‍💨

Pudding

I’m lovin the Chopper love from the Geks 😭❤️❤️

Trznk

Robins voice sounds like a mature women it matches her age

Pudding

A tanuki is an animal that exists in real life, it’s a japanese raccoon dog. Search it up! It’s super cute.

kuza

rs dont disrespect robin

Mahti

Her voice sounds a bit funny to me but it's not like I dislike it, the voice actor is really good

brog.

carter you are on thin ice buddy

saDbo

Enel is such a fun villain, he really elevates the arc for me

Nicholas R. Gonzales

@Jack you can find a list online that shows the filler % of each arc. Every arc after this has more and more filler, which means worse and worse pacing. Considering the crew was already disliking the pacing in Alabasta I think it would be smart to stick with One Pace for the rest of the series. The pacing will not improve from here.

Ante

Good to see them pick up the One Piece memes on their own. Hyping up Luffy's singing, "nobody dies", slim shady (comments helped here), laugh tier lists, natori and batori, the whitebeard and doflamingo powerscaling attempts, etc. A lot of the fun of OP is the little community inside jokes.

Marcus

Sanji is 19. He and zoro are the same age and height. I think it’s intentional.

Marcus

Oda writes his female characters with a lot of respect and substance/quality. You love to see it.

saDbo

I think you guys can watch movie 6 now, it's a really good movie although a bit dark, it's kind of a psychological horror movie, very different from One Piece (it's got good comedy too tho)

Marcus

Also one piece voice actor’s original songs. Enel has one too😂

cozo

Void century mentioned

Nami Swannn

Yup just searched up their ages and it’s: -Luffy : 17 -Zoro : 19 -Nami : 18 -Usopp : 17 -Sanji : 19 -Chopper : 15 -Robin : 28 (And honorary sh Vivi is 16)

Super Novice

Personally I like robins voice, she’s soft spoken and reserved. But we definitely get to see the voice actor flex at other moments so don’t worry.

Ari

Jack, for the next arc and some others but there are arcs that don't need it like W7, EL, MF, etc

Nami Swannn

I didn’t remember Usopp standing up against Enel 😭 y’all he might be a coward but he’s reliable for when it counts Also I was on the same boat with Robin’s VA, it was just very different than anything I’d ever heard. With time tho, I got used to it plus getting to know her character more and her very direct personality/humour made the monotone voice fit her character (dw her VA has range…iykyk 👀). She’s also meant to be in her late 20s so I guess that’s why they went for a more mature voice compared to the rest who are early 20s/ late teens

Mahti

EL has worse pacing than Skypiea

Janine

Another One Pace translation that I noticed different from the original is the scene where Chopper is looking for Zoro, Luffy, and Robin and says, 'I’m starting to get worried.' I remember that in the original, he says, 'I’m feeling insecure’ which I think is funnier.

Marcus

You’ve just got to improve your core strength if you can’t move mid-air like anime characters, skill issue smh.

Diamantes 💎💎🇲🇽

Mihak or shanks alone pack up enel, facts overkill btw

Marcus

Glad you’re enjoying the character laughs Cannon. There’s many more unique ones to come. It’s a random quirk that isn’t needed but it just adds more charm to the show and the fandom loves it.

Marcus

43:02 I can’t believe we hear that Ost this early on.

Zipzzty

Yes definitely remember to mention it then a long time until we get there

Zipzzty

Noticed that

Marcus

Despite One pace translating the Ball Brother’s words several times as “killed”. They never said that, they just said a word that roughly translates to “done in/defeated”.

El

Geks, what happened to ep 150-151? It’s nowhere to be seen

Zipzzty

Another Void Century Mention 👀👀

Fatima

I think someone asked Oda in an SBS a long time ago what Enel's bounty would be if he were a pirate in the Blue Sea. I'm not sure, but I think he said 500 million berries.

Marcus

Yep but Jack mentioned it haha

Frozzen Edge

i think they should watch fan letter when they get to FMI

Ciara P

When y’all get further into the show you need to react to the straw hats voice actors song covers y’all would love them

Zipzzty

💀

Goat Geks

Zipzzty

W drop

Zipzzty

Film red long time until we can watch that lmao

Zipzzty

He a cutie patootie fr

Sandi uchiha

chopper is so cute. also, only use one pace for thriller bark. the rest is good.

Marcus

Film red would definitely be a good one to try. You must definitely check out strong world which is the only movie Oda actually wrote the screenplay for. Strong world is watchable after the 400s

Marcus

Jack, whether it’s asking for one pace for every new arc or just continually for the rest of the series, I think it would be fair to poll it and not just look at the few visible commenters.

Marcus

😳

beannie

same mckay, i love a woman that could actually kill me🙏

julia

EL definitely needs one pace

Alex

Not quite. They're raccoon dogs which aren't even really related to raccoons (they're a part of the dog family not raccoon family).

Marcos

Void century mentioned!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1999

The dookie dial is crazy

julia

W Geks!!!

Neant

Fr :/ But Im happy at least Carter gets it 😌

Nanashi

And they were yapping their asses off over it😭

Studio Geck

Thats what i was going for haha

Rayanh LaNansha

“Enel is like a pet to Whitebeard.” —Carter 😂😂😂 (this somehow made me think of Omniman 😅)

Rhettoric

Skypiea is cooking! I love that they play the Drum Island theme near the end of Chopper's fight. And I see McKay is a man of taste 🤌🏼

Jose Flores

Loved that this video started with a revisit to Luffy singing. Awesome stuff.

Tom

So true later on they use rubber rubber for Luffy's moves as well

EmlovesOP

nami killing it love to see her improving as a fighter

marco

Tanuki are like raccoons except they're canines with huge ballsacks and live in Japan. "Fun" fact: Gaara's gourd is based on a tanuki scrotum.

Dasha

I never noticed that flowers on Hiruluk's flag are shaped like Chopper's hooves. Cute

wanira 11

Yeah I have to check out EL in one pace, I just want to see if the peak moments in that arc are just as satisfying in One pace as in normal one piece. If that is the case, I'm totally fine with one pace for EL. But I have to check it out first

SavDog23

One Pace translations are so ass for some stuff lmao

Neant

Fights in EL drags a lot. But I haven’t checked EL in One Pace so idk if it’s bcs of fillers.

Mitch

I agree wanira. I think W7 is perfectly fine. MF def doesn’t need it. Sab is perfect as well. EL is debatable idk

Dasha

yeah it's ep 291, unfortunately it's a filler :(

Poragami

good that not much happened these episodes

Dasha

Luffy's singing definitely comes back at some point, but I believe it happens in fillers. Correct me if I'm wrong. I remember a scene where Luffy sings with a bunch of kids, was it in a filler?

wanira 11

My suggestion is this: one pace for long ring long and TB. W7 and MF should be watched normally in my opnion.

Cannon Andrus

Your boy had a rough night last night but we here

sesaka

"let us know if we should watch One Piece: Red when we get there" alright ill answer in 5 years

Niffol

Tanukis are raccoons

Poragami

All good Cannon? U look tired af lmao

Neant

Robin‘s archeology adventure is the highlight of this arc for me.

Acebes

lip bite guy called chopper a tanuki. they are japan's racoons. If you know Mario's furry outfit that makes him fly, that's the tanooki suit. Not relevant but extra context. https://www.treehugger.com/thmb/uqqZVNeg-R4TPTckbYbDO9jtlos=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/__opt__aboutcom__coeus__resources__content_migration__mnn__images__2016__01__tanukifamily-4ec424557e9349fcaa411c10ee3c5e6d.jpg

Niffol

Jack is right, A lot of the Sea shanties have a lot of fun theorycrafting lines. lol Idk how much is lore and how much is just fun theories.

Wiifty

yea i think it will make the show more enjoyable for the others

LeBron Glazer (Bronsexual)

Yeah

Dounia Ghodbane

You should definitely check out the One Piece movies !! Like watch one every 2 or 3 arcs to avoid any spoilers. I’ve only watched 2 movies so maybe I’ll get to watch the rest with you guys..

jrnoodles

Thanks Geks! I love Enel's design so much.

Grim Reaper

Real

Benjamin Knock

the english versions of the openings reach up to the 4th (the one youre on now) and theyre all absolute bangers. the 3rd opening in english specifically is my favorite of all the openings, 1 and 3 both use vic mignogna who voiced edward elric in the dub
