Speaker 1: Yo, what is up? Boys? How's it going? And welcome
back to another episode of the One Piece Virgin Podcast.
With me today we have Posit Poseidon the Virgin herself.
How's it going?
Speaker 2: Hello?
Speaker 3: Hi?
Speaker 1: Hello, Hello? We're talking about Post and his Lobby. Jordan
the anime dude is also with us. How's it going?
Speaker 4: Howdy? Howdye? What's up? Everybody? Happy to be here?
Speaker 1: No, the man, I love Nico Robin hat is currently flipped.
I'm gonna flip it for you right now on stream.
How do I do this? I'm trying to be a
tech master talk about one piece, you know.
Speaker 3: I man, I feel like my head.
Speaker 4: I feel like my head's so much worse now. Yeah,
I just gotta I gotta find me one of those.
Speaker 1: I fixed it. I fixed it. I fixed it. Man.
We all love Nico Robin over here.
Speaker 4: I had culture.
Speaker 1: Poseidon last time. We finished off with saying goodbye to
the going Man and transitioning into the Post and his
Lobby arc. Where do you want to start? Take it
from here?
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, I uh, it was hard. It was
hard for me to like go in the marry too many,
I mean like two s and t O O, like
how the straw has had a hard time. I'm like, man,
I also had a hard time. But we go back
to water seven and now they're trying to figure out,
all right, we need a.
Speaker 1: Boat, we need a boat.
Speaker 3: We need a boat, we need a ship. We need
to get out. He may be a pirate without a
to finish the grand line?
Speaker 1: Would you believe? Would you believe that when we did
this series with Animac with a C he said he
read the manga, he was not attached. He was not
attached to the going Mary. And while we're crying and depressed,
he's like, it's just the boat, guys. Come on, No, No.
Speaker 4: That's why his name is spilled with the sea capital.
Speaker 1: And that's why when you said where they're looking for
a new boat, I just got PTSD from that. So
they're looking for their new No, they need a new ship. Right,
go ahead, continue, So.
Speaker 3: I will need a little bit of guidance if I
miss anything. These like remind me.
Speaker 2: So rats are kind of like.
Speaker 1: Ahead, I think I do think it started off with
Frankie going in and trying to tell a story and
Lufy was sleeping and eating while he was sleeping, and
stuff like that. In regards the ship. So I think
you're on the right track for the start.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So they go back right and they're like, we need
a ship. So if you guys remember frank the Frankie
family stole like a bunch of from the straw hats
and we get revealed what they used the money for.
So like Frankie ended up. I believe buying a tree
a tree, but there's something special about this tree.
Speaker 1: I love reaction to this. She bought wood from the
special tree. Do you remember the special tree of name?
Speaker 3: I think it was like the Treasure tree, treasure tree,
something fancy. I don't even remember. It was just a tree,
but it was a very very special tree.
Speaker 4: Just a tree broke.
Speaker 3: But this tree has supposedly like one of these strongest
like wood is like the strongest wind in the world.
Speaker 4: People, that's what they always say. He got ripped off.
But oh god.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's called the Treasure tree, Adam. I don't think
they're revealed where the tree is at, just that there's
constant battles and fights, and people die and towns have fallen,
but the tree stays standing. But every now and then
a branch or a piece of the wood ends up
on the black market and Frankie with his stolen money
stole that would continue.
Speaker 3: So he plans to build the Straw Hats News ship
with this tree, and like his dream is to build
like the ultimate ship and have somebody like ride it,
you know.
Speaker 2: So right after that.
Speaker 3: We kind of get like, oh, the Marines kind of
arrive at Water seven and everybody is panicking. They're like,
oh my god, they're coming after us. But it turns
out there is a vice admiral in particular who arrives
who we find out his name is Monkey D Garp,
and get reveal that that is Lufy's.
Speaker 4: Grandpa, Monkey Family, the Monkey Family.
Speaker 3: And he's a vice admiral, so he's like high up
in the ring.
Speaker 1: We get a bunch of monkey de I mean yeah,
Monkey Family reveals, and Garp walks in and punches Loofy
and does damage to him, and Lufy's like, don't even
fight him, He'll kill you, which is crazy because like
Lufy and the boys are usually all bad ass and strong,
and like grandfather comes in and just like yeah, leave them,
don't don't mess with them. How was what was your
reaction to to Garp's entrance, And like, your thoughts on that.
Speaker 3: So just to be like fully transparent, I kind of
already knew because of the like of the action they
reveal it like straight away, like episode one, Monkey d
Garp is his grandpa, but up until this point, nobody
really knows, right, dude.
Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy that they waited three hundred episodes
in the anime and then the live action cruise, Like
for a episodes, let's just yeah there or two episodes,
let's just introduce him immediately, versus like three hundred in
the anime is wild.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like.
Speaker 1: Knowing what we know as an anime fan, I like
that they waited to introduce him, But I think if
you're not an anime only having Garp and Kobe be
more relevant, I kind of like as well, Like I
like both in different ways. It's like, Kobe is a
relevant character, why did they just forget about him for
three hundred episodes? Right? So having him with Garp and
kind of like chasing an ongoing threat, and like, you
guys don't know that Garp is his grandfather when you
first start watching, so you're think a powerful marine is
just chasing him versus like if you've watched the anime
you already kind of know, and because of that, there's
like the threats not really a threat. We know he's
not going to arrest Loofy. But I think if you're
like only looking at the live action like by itself,
it's if it's like the only like material you watched.
I actually think it's not bad what they were going for.
What are your thoughts on that, Jordan?
Speaker 4: I personally like kind of like how they did the
live action. You know, it's always fun to see more garb.
It's one of those things where when Oda is constructing
the story, you know, week the week and whatnot, he
has all these other things that probably take precedent over that,
and there's a lot that's shown off there that's kind
of off screen. It's like it's happening. The world's very dynamic.
Things are happening all the time, but we're not always
seeing that. Rather than just like one or two flashbacks
or not flashbacks like cutaways in the middle of like
three hundred episodes, it's just kind of showing it alongside
Lufy's journey and kind of like having them playoff of
each other. So I like how they did it in
the live action honestly, I feel like it's one where
they're only able to do that because the story's so
fleshed out in the world so alive. So I don't know.
I like it.
Speaker 1: I feel like Kobe and Garb got time that they
wouldn't have normally got, which we kind of wanted anyway.
And it's kind of acting in a similar role that
Smoker has, where like he's chasing Loofy from place to
place and following him, and I feel like Smoker was neglected,
So I wonder what, like a little bit neglected later
in the story. So I wonder what they're gonna do
with the live action with Smoker. Are they going to
have smoke or chase him or is Garp and Kobe
gonna take that mantle continue to chase him or both.
Speaker 4: It's a good question. It's a good question, I guess. Beside,
do you have any thoughts I guess on Kobe and Helme,
Like in the anime, we've seen them again, Like I
know you've seen them in the live action, but like
in the anime, like they're very different than they used
to be. The most character growth in one piece.
Speaker 3: Sorry, Yeah, no, I I really enjoy them. Yeah, Kobe
was like a huge wive and then Helmepo was just
a very spoiled brat. Definitely shape them up to be
to be very well maintained marine. So it's kind of
cool to see the little reunion as well between Loufy
and Kobe, and Lufy being like, oh my god, we
didn't become a marine like you said you would.
Speaker 1: Kobe's design changed a lot, like it's only been that long,
how what the fuck?
Speaker 3: He had like a different voice as well. He's much older,
sounds much older.
Speaker 1: I don't know how much Luf looks identical, and Kobe
had the biggest glow up of all time. It's been like,
what has it been? How long has it been?
Speaker 4: Like six months?
Speaker 1: A year?
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say that one piece takes place over a
very short span of time, right like right now, Like
it hasn't been that long. And whenever he was like
Coby's talking about being a part of Albato's crew and whatnot,
Lukey's like, oh yeah, I forgot about that. You're like
you forgot that was a few months ago? Man, that
was it was less than a year.
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of ships went down in that
amount of for Loofy and also Loofy, he's got one
brain sell to share.
Speaker 4: You're not wrong.
Speaker 1: Puberty hit Kobe like a truck. My god, Yeah, that's
a wild that's the biggest that's the best transformation in anime.
Speaker 4: It's still argue that.
Speaker 1: Non physically. I guess physically as well, but even like
character has changed a lot. Any thoughts on that.
Speaker 2: Poseidon, I like his character is much more bearable now.
I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3: But because he changed so much physically, the straw hats
could not recognize him. They're like, who are you?
Speaker 2: He's like, you really don't remember who I am?
Speaker 3: No, we don't who.
Speaker 4: We also get to see Kobe's dream kind of in
this rowag, at least him tell Loofy his dream, right
or where he kind of wants to end up as
far as he wants to be an admiral. Right, So, yeah,
how did you did.
Speaker 1: You do any reaction to, like, you know, like Kobe
yelling out that he wants to be an admiral and
Lufy's Lufy's reaction.
Speaker 3: I don't know. It was just very heartwarming because I
remember how much like that was like a huge part
of the beginning in anime.
Speaker 2: How Kobe he wanted to be a marine. He wanted
to be a marine.
Speaker 3: He wanted to initially just be a part of it,
and now he's striving for more because he already achieved that.
So I'm really excited to kind of like where his
journey goes moving forward. If we get to see him again,
which I'm sure we will, feel like he'll be very
important later on.
Speaker 1: He never saw him again, never saw him again, Jordan.
Is there anything specific about that about that scene that
you like?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, just the fact that Zoro and Loofy
both are seeing him again after so long. He says
his dream and it's such a grand dream that he's
kind of embarrassed to say it, like he's like, oh,
that sounds very arrogant. Like I'm sorry I even said that.
They don't mock it or laugh right, like, they just
take it very seriously, like they just the way that
they handle it is just so manned the man that it.
It kind of wore my heart a little bit too.
I love that scene, man, I love Nico Robin.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, guys, I got distracted by chat take my money.
They're like, sell the hat. I think I think we
need to sell this hat pause Iidon.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, we definitely have a ru Yeah.
Speaker 1: Fun funny, I got totus back to there. Jordan, I
do completely agree, though. It's nice that like Lufy's dream
being the Pirate King being so over the top makes
everyone else's dream, like I'll like, feel more achievable in
a way for the crew, but also Lufy's reaction when
it's like you want to be an admiral, like for
him it's no big dealers, like, yeah, it makes sense,
chase your dream.
Speaker 4: And it's kind of like Poseidon said, right, like it's
one of those things where even just joining the Marines
at all seemed out of reach for Kobe at the start,
and it was kind of loofy that gave him that
push to like that's your dream, like go go chase it. Right,
you only live once, So it's like Lufy's now twice
had that impact on it where he like makes this
dream that seems out of reach feel much more achievable
than it ever did otherwise.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm trying to see here. So oh, we
got the reveal of obviously Garp being the grandfather, which
he already knew, but there's another reveal about Lufy's family,
So yeah, is the end.
Speaker 3: Of the arc of this Like little arc, we also
get to see Monkey d Dragon, where's the iconic little
green coat?
Speaker 2: And if you remember, there was a man in.
Speaker 3: A green coat who saved Loofy back in Logtown. So
now we can confirm that that was his dad.
Speaker 1: He is a part wanted criminal in the world. Apparently
according to Nico Rock, they.
Speaker 4: Made you wait on that scary scary man.
Speaker 1: What the part of you were gonna say?
Speaker 2: The Revolutionary I believe right, the Revolutionary Army?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What a family?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a family.
Speaker 3: It was so funny because I remember during the arc,
Garb was just like, man, I wanted you an ace
to be marines, Like that was what he wanted his grandchildren.
Speaker 2: But they ended up becoming.
Speaker 4: Also funny because Lufy's like, I didn't even know I
had it dad. Oh, and then the Garb's like, you
know what, I wasn't supposed to say that. Just forget it.
Speaker 3: You know you did it.
Speaker 4: I take it back. After revealing it to the to
the whole crew, the whole world.
Speaker 1: And the cruise just sitting there being like, oh wait,
Garps Vice Admiral used to fight against Rogers your grandfather.
Oh wait, the most dangerous man the world Revolutionary Army
literally fighting against the government. Dragon is your dad. Also,
how Shank's doing like all these for the crew at once.
Speaker 3: It's yeah, we also get to find out about the emperors.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, emperors.
Speaker 3: So they are kind of like these strongest pirates. They're
the ones who rule like part of the grand line.
Speaker 2: And we find out that Shanks is one of them
and a white Beard is one of them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we get to see them two we don't
know another two. I wonder if you would be able
to guess off the TCG.
Speaker 3: I will one of the recent sets it was for
Emperor's theme, but I think it's more recent as like, oh,
it's not the current em now, but there's like it's
like the four Emperor's currently and I'm like, great, thank
you forget about it. Oh my Godlers, I honestly don't
even know. I'm kind of seeing it is like, yes,
there are parts of the anime I already know just
from playing the TCG, and it's just kind of I
can't avoid that. But it's more, it's honestly kind of
fun just figuring out how they even got there, you
know how what happened. Yeah, so I'm I'm not too
like mad about it.
Speaker 2: It's just like the journey.
Speaker 1: That it was nice hearing white Beard and Crazy from
this point, three hundred episodes in to see white Beard
and Shanks just talking about Buggy Buggy.
Speaker 3: Find out that Shanks and Buggy were on Goldie Rogers
Crew as well when they were kids.
Speaker 2: So those two were like brothers.
Speaker 1: So yeah, Buggy's my boy. I love them so much.
Speaker 3: I think it's very important to also talk about why
Shanks and white.
Speaker 2: Yes were meeting. So there was a character we met,
I think on Jaya. I think it was Giant.
Speaker 3: It was one of the islands before Skypeia. We met
Marshall D. Teach. So he used to be a part
of Whitebeard's crew and now he left and supposedly he
got he attained a devil fruit that's very, very dangerous.
So that's why I believe was meeting killed somebody.
Speaker 1: He killed a crew member, and Shanks goes to white
Beard and is like, be careful sending ace after him. Yeah,
and fuck up, he killed he he killed a son
of mine, a member of my trew. Obviously going to
take him down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so.
Speaker 3: That's more towards the end of the arc, but I
think it's very important to kind of like ye also
a note, h Something I also noted while during that
scene was when Shanks got up on the boat, a
lot of the crew members just kind of like fell
to the ground.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we kind of see what. I don't know
if it's like a devil fruit or what they.
Speaker 3: Did, but I kind of took note of it where
like people were like, oh my god, people, they're getting
weakened and stuff like that whenever Shanks kind of walks around.
So Shanks definitely has something going on with him, but
we don't know what it is.
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. I'm like, is it
a double fruit? Like what is going on?
Speaker 4: This cologne just way too strong? What's going on? Yeah,
there's a lot in this little little section here after.
Speaker 2: Lore drops like it's it's insane.
Speaker 4: I think the New World is also mentioned for the
first time right from from Kobe as well, so just
talking about like big bullets. So I guess any thoughts
on the New World or had that been brought up before.
I don't think it has.
Speaker 1: Apparently jos who mentioned hockey on that at that scene,
and that'd be the first time hockey's ever mentioned other
than in Canada every day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh Canada, Oh Canada.
Speaker 4: I can't wait for us to get hockey here in
the US. That'd be that.
Speaker 2: Would be wild, that would be crazy for sure. Oh man, Yeah,
I know this. It was a lot of like huge
lore drops here.
Speaker 3: Uh. One of my favorite scenes from I guess this
around this part we're talking about was definitely the conversation
between Couson and raw. Yes, they kind of have a
little bit of like a heart to heart. She was
basically they were. He was talking to her about how
he like intended to like kill her, but he just
chose not to because she they were they were able
to beat CP nine, which is crazy, right there, meant
to be like one of these strongest units in them
in the Marines, right, but the straw Hats were able
to take all of them down.
Speaker 2: So he decides to kind.
Speaker 3: Of just let her go, which is I don't know,
He's a very interesting character.
Speaker 2: I really like him.
Speaker 1: Have you seen Robin's backstory with Saul and Alkg already?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 3: Right, So he he could have killed her as a
child because he knew already like she she's part of
that little group of archaeologists. But he was the one
who actually helped her escape.
Speaker 1: Let her go. Saw sacrificed call his friend in a way,
sacrificed his life to help Robin. So now he's like,
oh shit, I got I might as well help Robin too,
like I let him go like kind of in his name.
And then for twenty years Robin evaded the government. They
didn't really do anything with her life, like didn't find
friends or family or any place to call home. And
al Kiji kind of like what I loved without this
conversation is al Hej's like I gave up and I
figured like the CP nine and and then his lobby
would take care of you, you know, and then the
straw hats her new friends and family pulled it off.
Oh man, I love one piece.
Speaker 4: He's a he's a very whimsical character. This is now
there's gonna be like the third time he's kind of
just flopped, yeah, let her go or what have you
and stuff, because there was prior to Water seven as well,
and then yeah, post tennis lobby and then as a kid.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, it's I think it's all rooted in that
backstory all these times that he's letting her go. Now,
it's just like kind of like because Saul sacrificed himself
or or whatever, and knowing what she went through as
a child, like the world government going after her as
a child is crazy. I think that backs where he
influenced how weird he acts. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've definitely seen like shades of gray all throughout
the Marines as well. Right, they all kind of have
their own sense of of justice, and I mean we
see that again with a kind of with Garb in
this arc as far as like Garbs a marine, he
takes things seriously to an extent, but like you know,
he kind of has his own morals and ethics and
he's not gonna capture Loofy because it's his grandson, right,
Like he's putting family first there, even even if he
did hit him a lot as a kid. So yeah,
I don't know, I feel like you get that a
lot or you start to see that a lot more
around this time.
Speaker 3: Frankie, Oh my god, I cried for his little family
kind of arc here. So I think we have to
mention the bounties now, every single straw hat, including Frankie
now has a bounty. They all have wanted visits.
Speaker 1: So, Puiz, do you remember the numbers?
Speaker 3: I don't. I just remember fifty fifty fifty, I remember
it was laughing. I believe Lufy's was three hundred mill. Yes,
THEIRL was one hundred and twenty. Nice, Robin was eighty,
and I can't remember the rest of them.
Speaker 1: Nice better than I can probably do. But Robbin's only
went up one million, which is interesting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, we're gonna say, and I was gonna say,
Soga King.
Speaker 2: You know, you got to get one, but Soda King did.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Soga King got one. And it's the same bounty
that Lufy basically started out with. So I always thought
that was interesting.
Speaker 1: The thirty million, thirty mil, Yeah, and forty four million,
I believe to.
Speaker 4: Frankie. Yeah, so it was forty four million for Frankie,
seventy seven million for Sangy even you know, Zora have
a little dick measuring contest about that, about who's this bigger?
And uh, Nobby's was sixteen million, sixteen and then uh,
anything interesting I guess about Sangy's that stuck y.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he he is the only one who does not
have a proper picture. He had to draw him because
it's likely it does.
Speaker 4: It's pretty good.
Speaker 3: They tried to take a picture of him, but it
didn't work out, like it turned off black. So they're like, well,
we had to draw him. I love that little sequence
of each of like the almost like their families in
a sense, kind of reacting to the to be the bounties.
And my favorite reaction was definitely Sony's Varacti crew. They
were all laughing at him there, like, wow, it looks.
Speaker 1: Just like I do. Love the different pictures like Loofy's
smiling and happy NAMMY's posting like a model, Soga King
like he's been through it, Choppers like so happy, go lucky,
tongue out drooling over cotton candy like it's just like
the pictures are so good. And then Sondia just gets
ripped on the eyebrow is like fucking huge, the drawing
of the eyebrow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no do. Bounty arts are always so fun. And
then like you said, you also got in a good
see little panshots of like the entire world that we've
seen up to this point, right, how things are still
going on there? They're still uh still living their lives.
Speaker 3: I love the vb's reaction because like her, the Alabasta
people were like.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, this all Sunday joined.
Speaker 3: The straw Hats, and BB's like, you know, I trust
Loofy so much. I'm sure like she joined for like
he let her on for like a good reason. So
I thought that was really.
Speaker 4: Because they wouldn't have known enough to this point, right
that the whole time.
Speaker 3: They would not have known, so this this was their
first kind of like oh my god.
Speaker 4: Oh that's wild, so easy to forget. Just everybody knows
different amounts of information, so yeah, we've known for so long.
Speaker 1: It's m.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Tying out with Frankie right now that Frankie has
a poster, he has to go on the run now,
and his family, the Frankie family, they they want him
to leave, like go with the straw Hats, but Frankie
himself does not want to because he's like, well, Water
seven is my home, you know, I need to stay
here and take care of like the Frankie family. And
you kind of like get like the small sequence of
the times that like Frankie has kind of like helped
out the people in the Frankie family because they're not
They're not really right, they're more like found family. Like
he saved them, like he saved like the little two
sisters from basically becoming alcoholics, right, and he gave everybody
who didn't have a home, like a place to be
and be a part of some things. So that whole
little sequence of them like trying to push him to
go with the straw hats, like stealing his underwear and
like the straw hats kind of like you know, leading
him to the ship. It was kind of just very
emotional because I can imagine like how hard it was
for Frankie to want to just to leave, you know,
because after the whole Tom thing, Tom died, you know,
Cocoa became an alcoholic. You know, supposedly Frankie was dead,
so he couldn't even see Iceberg, his like brother figure.
He didn't have anybody, So it was it was very
It was a hard sequence for me to watch because
I'm like, oh.
Speaker 4: There's a lot there. So I guess you got all
the way to where they kind of leave water seven,
Is that right? Or you made it up?
Speaker 2: I got to the episode.
Speaker 1: You can't just skip over Robin grabbing Frankie's balls.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she did grab his balls.
Speaker 4: That was that was the hardest part.
Speaker 5: She did not hesitate, she did not hast think about
she is she's yeah, that's I love man.
Speaker 3: I love Eco, Robin.
Speaker 1: Man, I love Robin.
Speaker 4: Oh, Chad, that's not You can't just say she touched
his ball like she squeezed or whatever like that painful.
It was not like.
Speaker 1: Any pleasant way.
Speaker 4: No, it's a haunting scene.
Speaker 3: Would my favorite Oh sorry, it was like when he
was like he kept crying, but Robin's like, I'm not
even touching him anymore, like I haven't done anything. But
it was him like pretending like he was still getting
his balls crushed, but it was just him crying.
Speaker 4: Yeah, speaking of crying. I one of my favorite parts
of this arc that we haven't even really touched on
yet is what do you think about how they handled
the whole uh whole USAP thing now that you know
was only on his lobby and now now we have
USAP back, but like do we like do what do
you think about that whole thing?
Speaker 3: Loufy was ready to like have him back on the crew,
but you have Zoro here basically saying to Lufy you
cannot just let him back on the crew without him
saying sorry, and like the whole thing about like Zoro,
he's like somebody who's very much he values.
Speaker 2: Honor and respect.
Speaker 3: And the way he saw USAP disrespected Loofy by not
like because Lufy is the captain, like he's the one
who calls the shots, so USAP fighting him and all
of that, Zoro kind of saw it as very disrespectful.
So he wanted Lufy to be like, I don't want
you letting him back on the crew unless he can
apologize for what he did. And even Sonjy was like, yeah,
I agree. So you kind of get like that whole
You need to be a captain and you cannot let anybody.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't discusge just because the other are friends
and you're easy going. You can't just gloss over this.
Like he threw a tantrum. You guys got into a fight.
He disobeyed the captain and even challenged the captain to
a duel, which could have resulted in Like you're putting
your life on the line at that point, Like this
is very serious. You're starting to kill the captain for something. Essentially, Yeah,
you can't just come back like nothing happened like exactly,
and then choosing to leave on your own accord not
something to take likely lightly. I completely agree and Lufy
as a captain needs to like not go running back
to becoming running running back and apologizing to him. And
I think I think Zoral and even Sonji agreed with him,
was spot on there. Yeah, but what ends up happening be.
Speaker 3: Said they so garb ends up going after them. Now, please,
can somebody remind me why? I just remember he was
just like going after them and starting to throw cannon balls.
Speaker 1: He like told the navy. He's like, I can't arrest him.
He's my son. And they're like you have to be like, well,
I guess I have to.
Speaker 4: Excuse than that. You at least say you tried, right.
Speaker 3: Frankie is already on the boat at this point, like
they were like you have to go. So now he's
on there with them, and they're waiting around like they're
trying to wait. They're like, hold up, let's see if
Usop comes back.
Speaker 2: So Chopper I think it was Chopper.
Speaker 3: And not me, like, can't we just like wait a
few minutes, just like see if he is on the
way and there are the other half is like no, like,
we have to go. These marines are coming after me.
So we get the sequence of like we stopped finally
like mestering up the courage to go and ask to
join or well in his thing, he's like, well, I'll
join the crew because you guys want me back, right,
So we get this whole sequence of him like running
towards the shore and like hey, guys, like I'm back, let.
Speaker 2: Me back on.
Speaker 3: And then he like screams like I am so sorry.
So that's when they all kind of like, all right,
he can come back. So Loofy kind of grabs him.
He's back on the boat and he rejoins the straw Hats,
and we kind of also get to see what the
Thousand Sunny, which is the name of the ship, is
capable of. Because Frankie built this ship to be like
his dreamship. This thing can do a lot. He it
like shot itself in the air and he like was
very specific. He was like, this ship can fly in
the air for one kilometer. Okay, they were able to scape,
law uh god, and they kind of you know, get
said sailing. And then the last episode I watched, I
felt like was a very also very important episode to
kind of talk about. So we get to see Ace
kind of find where Teach is and we get some
confrontation going on between the two step. It's a I
think this is a very big checkpoint where it's like,
oh no.
Speaker 4: That sounds like some drama.
Speaker 3: So, like we talked about earlier, uh, Teach now has
a double fruit that is extremely extremely dangerous, and Ace
was tasked to go after him and take him down.
So we get to see what exactly his double fruit is.
And I know it's a Logiah because he mentioned it.
But his devil fruit, I believe it's called the dark
dark fruit, like a darkness fruit. So he has the
power of darkness and gravity, so he can kind of
like like a black hole like suck things in and like.
Speaker 2: Shoot him back out.
Speaker 3: But he also has a way of turning off devil
fruit powers, which is kind of nasty. So we get
to see him kind of use it on Ace, where
he's like, my powers are so good against people who
rely heavily on their devil fruits because I can turn
them off essentially, And now it's like, oh no, he's
probably gonna be a very very dangerous individual moving forward.
Speaker 1: Oh I love hearing talk about these scenes for the
first time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, I'm gonna move with a TCG
in this again, it makes sense because Blackbeard turns off
on plays.
Speaker 2: I was like, why does he do Oh, I know why?
Now he turns off.
Speaker 3: Your abilities, Like, why does he do that? Because he
does it in the anime.
Speaker 1: Ace was such a bad matchup for for Blackbeard, just
because like Ace is like so strong, but he's mainly
op in the sense that his devil fruit was op.
Speaker 4: Did it finish the fight in the episodes you were
in the sid or did off of it?
Speaker 3: Cut off? It didn't like we didn't even see like
the end of it. It just like ended the episode again.
Speaker 1: But it really is a bad matchup, right, Like someone
that relies on their devil a logia de fruit so
heavily and that his devil fruit overpowers most people. Is
it's a tough one, uh for Ace for sure, And
I think that just shows that doesn't matter the devil fruit,
like you need to train in other aspects as well,
and we'll see that, hopefully more in the future.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm kind of wondering up in this point, and
maybe you guys can correct me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 2: I remember a few urcs ago we had I believe
Lafitte go to the elders.
Speaker 3: And petition that Black Bear become an emperor. So I
don't know if he's an emperor at this point, assuming
that like enough time has passed by.
Speaker 1: So let's say he's not an emperor, because that hasn't
been revealed yet. He wants to be an emperor. Do
you remember what his plan was?
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 1: Do you remember why he was in what was the
island called Jaya?
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 1: So he went to Jaia. He was trying to find
someone with a high bounty to like loofy, to give
to the government so that he could do something big
and be given the title of the of the Chichibuk.
Speaker 4: What's it called in English Jano.
Speaker 1: The Emperors of the Sea or no, not emperor. Yeah, sorry,
I couldn't remember the English way. The Tijiki warlords you're good, you're.
Speaker 2: Good, getting mixed up.
Speaker 1: So he the reason why he went to Jaya, and
he ended up going after Luf He's someone with a
big bounty to try to give it to the government
to become a member of the warlords. Yeah, and then
he just barely missed him, right, He just barely missed
him because Lufy went flying into the sky. That's like
the last time we saw him. So yeah, Any any
ideas of what's going to happen going forward with one
piece with some of these characters.
Speaker 3: I think Blackbeard is going to be a real problem.
I have a feeling he's going to try to take
down all the pirates to be he wants to become.
I don't know if he wants to become King of
the Pirates, but I'm assuming he's doing this because he
wants to a lot of people are kind of chasing
after that title.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I think that's fair.
Speaker 2: Very dangerous individual.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean we haven't seen a lot of
black Beard up at this point, right, But on Jaya,
him and Lufy kinda if nothing else, they uh, they
had some similar type of thoughts on dreams themselves, right,
Like that whole whole arc was about dreams and uh.
And while some people might laugh at him, He's like, no,
you know you got you got a dream? Right, So.
Speaker 1: Chat, can you guys remind me was Blackbeard looking for
Loofy on Jaya or only after discovering Lufy's bounty he
started going after Loofy. Did he go there for someone else?
Was it was? It? Told? Was it?
Speaker 4: I can't remember? I think Uh, I don't think he
knew Lufy's bounty, and nobody on Jaia n exactly and
Lufy actually had one hundred million very bounty. It looked
like he was only thirty million right well when he
was there, and then we got the reveal that it
was one hundred million there after, like directly after Jaia,
once he was gone.
Speaker 1: I didn't say that he was looking for someone else
before Loofy. Yeah, I don't think he's bounty just popped up. Yeah, Okay,
I almost want to go back and watch again for
the nineteenth million time. I love this.
Speaker 4: There's so much.
Speaker 1: There's so many little details, a foreshadow things. It's hard
to pick up on your first watch. I try to.
Speaker 4: I still struggle to pick it up sometimes, right.
Speaker 1: I try to hint little things for Poseidon here and there.
Speaker 4: To be honest, did you did you even remember that
we had like met a mysterious individual on Lope Down.
Uh that like we just never got any more about,
like we learned this arc it was Dragon, But like
I'm gonna be honest the first time I watched, I
don't think I remember, like I was like, oh, yeah,
that happened.
Speaker 1: But yeah, he had.
Speaker 3: A very specific color in his coat. That's all I remembered.
Speaker 4: Like, I liked his jacket. Okay, he's got some oh man,
oh my goodness, he used to get it from somewhere.
Those flip flops.
Speaker 1: Man, he set trends, Pasidon, Is there anything we missed,
anything you guys want to talk about before we wrap
it up?
Speaker 2: I am looking forward to Thriller bar.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna really miss the Water
seven kind of saga. It was, honestly, in my opinion,
peak one piece right now. I thought that was like
just like a masterpiece. Chef's Kiss amazing. I could see
myself rewatching that arc later on.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 3: It was amazing, and I really enjoy it, and I
feel like the the the bar is now set very
high for future arcs, So we'll see how I feel
moving forward. But I'm excited to start thriller Bark.
Speaker 2: I am getting through the.
Speaker 3: Little filler arc with like the Alchini family or.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't know who these people are, and I don't
think they are very relevant, but it's a it's a
fun arc. It's nice to just like put in the
background while I'm doing things. So true, I'll get to
Thriller Bark soon, be honest.
Speaker 4: I forgot all about the al Chini family. I'm gonna
have to have her catch me up on that.
Speaker 1: I'm not don Alcini today, of all days, the day
of the Feedercini. Any final, any final thoughts, Jordan h No.
Speaker 4: Overall, I said it it's a very small little segment
there after all of Venislobby and stuff where we're back
on water seven, but a lot was revealed, a lot
of setup for kind of what's to come, and I'm
glad it still seems like you're enjoying it because, like
I said, a bit of a slower arc, but also
also kind of not right. So yeah, yeah, I personally
love the bounty arcs and like the going around the
world and seeing what everybody's up to and things like that.
It's like a good little break, a good little break
week basically.
Speaker 3: Fair.
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to Thriller Bark in two weeks maybe three,
depending we might want to try and do it all
on batch, but if we can't, we can't how many
episodes a thriller bark, Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Quite a few. It's a pretty long arc, I think,
is it not?
Speaker 1: We maybe I would be able to It's forty five episodes,
so maybe we break it up with the two. Then
let's try to aim for twenty. I guess it's roughly
for next week or for two weeks from now.
Speaker 2: Then is there this particular episode count.
Speaker 3: I think that will help me a lot.
Speaker 1: I'll have to message you because it's off the top
of my head. I can't remember. I have a spot
in mind, but I don't know if it's gonna be
a little bit over twenty or a little under twenty.
So I'll message you.
Speaker 3: Okay, sounds good to me.
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, Thank you everyone for watching Shint Poku, Space Cowboys,
whatever the fucker outshow is these days. I'll see you
all next time. Check out the boys later.
Speaker 2: Bye bye boy,
