December 24, 2019 14:00 - 54 minutes - 50.1 MBThis bonus episode takes a wider look at shonen battle anime, of which One Piece is just a single (and arguably best) series. We talk Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, Fairy Tail, History's Strongest Disciple, Bleach, My Hero. We discuss the tropes we enjoy from these series, as well as what makes the best rival and antagonist characters. So take off those training weights, prepare the forbidden technique your master warned you against using recklessly, and let's head into battle with someone who ha...
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 10! A Casual Chat With Grant! Tokusatsu! Evangelion! Isekai!
December 23, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 63.5 MBJoin us for our first ever guest appearance from none other than the internet's Grant, host of both the Super Sentai Podcast as well as the Blade Licking Thieves podcast. We don't have a specific topic of conversation, so we chat about lots of things: Tokusatsu, isekai anime trends, Evangelion (which is, definitively, not a mecha anime), Fruits Basket as well as Full Moon Wo Sagashite. We're thrilled by his positivity, and we discuss what it means to be an oldtaku. Other series we discuss...
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 9! Existential Sci Fi Humor With The Murderbot Chronicles!
December 22, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 67.5 MBIn the last bonus episode with Curtis, we tackle the 4 novella science fiction series The Murderbot Chronicles by Martha Wells. It stars an introverted security bot (sec unit) that discovers it may care more about its human companions than it had once believed. And corporations are too big to fail and are putting the lives of their employees at risk. It's a story of directly exploring emotions, and we love it. Also, we talk about the difference of fantasy and science fiction
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 8! Let's Go Super With Dragonball Super: The Broly Movie!
December 21, 2019 14:00 - 50 minutes - 46 MBIt's time to power up with this SUPER episode that finally gives Joel what he's wanted all along: canonical Gogeta! Kat's out sick so it's up to Joel and Curtis to power up and face this challenge. The Dragon Ball Super folks attempt to make Broly more interesting in his canonical debut, Freeza is back for shenanigans, and, you know, we have an action packed movie that's 70% movie and 5000% Hype. HIIII-YAAAAAAAAAH!!
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 7! The MCU Mega Episode! Strawhats, Assemble!
December 20, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 68.8 MBGosh do we have a lot to talk about, which makes sense considering we're covering 2 movies, wow! We discuss Thanos as a villain, whether or not Thor is an interesting character, and how we might integrate One Piece into various elements of the MCU. The youtube video mentioned can be found here
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 6! We Return to the Expanse! Season 2 and Space Zombies!
December 19, 2019 14:05 - 1 hour - 58 MBIf you enjoyed our discussion of the first season of the Expanse, then gosh do we have good news for you! This season includes more space Zombies and increased stakes as tension continues to climb! Sadly, it does not seem that Miller and Holden have developed super powers from the radiation... yet.
Water 7 Saga, Episode 17: Storming the Tower of Law! Obtain the Five Keys!
December 19, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 69.8 MBChatting with the Hosts starts at 2:41 We briefly discuss our plans for NaNoWriMo (sadly, neither of your hosts made much progress this year) We're making progress on reading Paul Kreuger's Steel Crow Saga The final season of Bojack Horseman has started, and we're looking forward to the closure it may bring for the characters, and the depiction of self-improvement as work. Briefly mentioned is the His Dark Materials Trilogy, which is both a book series and a TV show on HBO Regular...
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 5! Kingdom Hearts 2.71 The Memories of an Apex Shadow
December 18, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 64.2 MBThis episode will take you to Whole New Worlds, so please, Be Our Guest, and remember, you Ain't Never Had a Podcast Like Us. Actually, we make far fewer Disney puns in this episode, but we do discuss Kingdom Hearts 3, and once more Joel is the closest to a well-read fan, while Curtis has played without following the story too closely and Kat has never played but enjoys the story. Lot of fanfiction moments in this episode, folks!
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 4! It's a Valentine's Day Episode! Love is in the Air!
December 17, 2019 14:00 - 52 minutes - 47.9 MBFor this episode, we're bringing you discussion of not 1, but 3 rom-com shows with different levels of comedy and fan-service. Though To-Love-Ru almost killed us, we found a way to persevere. THe other 2 series: The World God Only Knows and Ouran High School Host club. In addition to discussing what we liked or didn't from each series, we bring in discussion of One Piece. What would their host-club personalities be like?
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 3! Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks!
December 16, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 62.1 MBIt's time for Kat's pick for a bonus episode, and we chose the second Equestria Girls movie! We try and see if Curtis (completely removed from this series) can name the mane 6 characters and their elements of friendship/harmony, and Joel has a fanfic moment about "Shadow Luffy"- or would it be... Luffy Black? Nega Luffy? Anti Luffy? Yfful? So join us for some great laughter (and, we suppose, generosity, kindness, honesty, loyalty, and magic)!
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 2! Season 1 of The Expanse
December 15, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 84.2 MBCurtis takes the space-helm in this episode, and this time Joel is the newbie! It's also our first science fiction based bonus episodes, and it turns out Joel is a larger fan of fantasy, while this is Curtis's bread and butter. We discuss how drab and hopeless the future seems to be, moral relativity, and racial tensions, the old stable of speculative fiction. Joel predicts space Hulks and space Cthulu in future seasons. Plus, Holden and Miller should kiss.
12 Days of KotWN Bonus Episodes: Day 1! Pokemon and One Piece!
December 14, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 65.2 MBWelcome to the very first bonus episode we ever recorded. We apologize if the audio is not what you expect- it's something of a time capsule for our old set up. But more importantly, pokemon! It's a huge series with which your hosts each have some familiarity- some strong, some not as much. So enjoy as we talk cross overs and whether this long running series could work well with the other long running series near and dear to our hearts. Pocket Pirates? Pirate Monsters? Either way it'll be a ...
Water 7 Saga, Episode 16: The Tragedy of Ohara is Revealed! War is Declared on the World Government!
December 05, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 71.2 MBChatting with the Hosts starts at 2:19 We have a lot to talk about this week! We're both big fans of Stephen King's Needful Things, though we do wonder if perhaps Mr. King is insane, as one does. We enjoy Pretty Cure alright, but are a little worried it's too episodic, which isn't always our favorite style of story telling. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has had its end, which had been a large part of Kathryn's life for a time. And Lastly, Joel has continued his watch-thro...
Water 7 Saga, Episode 15: Crashing the Enies Lobby Courtroom! Luffy Evolves One Step Further!
November 27, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 52.4 MBChatting with the Hosts starts at 2:27 We discuss: the Black Clover anime, Paul Kreuger's Steel Crow Saga, and Kat's first step on her Inuyasha journey. Regular episode resumes at 17:36 Luffy has evolved one step further in this episode. We also celebrate the greatness of Sodom, Gamorrah, Sogeking, and Franky being a feral biter! Plus, we get plenty of stuff to speculate, such as what devil fruit powers Kaku and Kalifa will get, what's inside Devil Fruits, and if Zoro is manifestin...
Water 7 Saga, Episode 14: We've Landed at Enies Lobby! We Meet the Remaining Members of CP9!
November 07, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 57.4 MBWe introduce a new segment, "Chatting with the Hosts" and will use time stamps moving forward. Chatting with the Hosts starts at 9:46 We discuss: the Black Clover anime, Futari wa Pretty Cure, Pierce Brown's Iron Gold (and the Red Rising series in general), Paul Kreuger's Steel Crow Saga and Last Call at the Nightshade Lounge, and Rustage's Straw Hat Pirates Rap Cypher Regular episode resumes at 25:58 This episode has 3 headed-judges, flying trains, giants, and the moment for...
Upcoming Changes Announcement
November 05, 2019 14:00 - 1 minute - 925 KBThe show bids farewell to its One Piece Casual. Though the crew is now smaller, we shall continue to sail towards the horizon
Special Episode: One Piece Stampede!
November 05, 2019 14:00 - 50 minutes - 41.3 MBIn a break from our typical format, we discuss the fourteenth One Piece movie: Stampede, and we allow ourselves to break our no-spoilers rule, so if you're not caught up on the series, maybe give this one a pass. This was a celebration of 20 years of the One Piece anime, and we take a deep dive into everything we loved, and things we felt held it back. So strap in and enjoy this special episode
Water 7 Saga, Episode 13: All Aboard the Hype Train! Next Stop: Mortal Judgment!
October 24, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 67.1 MBEveryone's on trains in this episode: Good guys, bad guys, main characters, support characters. Among the many wonderful new faces is one that bears a striking resemblance to a former crew member. Just who IS Sogeking, and WHERE is Sniper Island?? We also discuss Wanze (the rollerblading noodle chef who shoots ramen from his nose) and his stupid face, Nero (The "Sea Weasel") and what is wrong with his face, and we discuss whether friendship lasers are believable or not. And we discuss Zoro's...
Water 7 Saga, Episode 12: Let's Visit Mecha Island! The Adventures of Chief Luffy!
October 10, 2019 18:26 - 1 hour - 55.5 MBWe explore yet another One Piece movie and the New Years special that sees the Straw Hats in an Alternate Universe! We generally like Chief Luffy, but are a bit more critical of the adventure on Mecha Island. We talk about... Turtle Cloacas, bad mysteries, TAKING OVER THE WORLD.... with a Turtle, and Jiggle Physics. Yes, we're fine, why are you asking?
Water 7 Saga, Episode 11: All Aboard to Rescue Robin! The Power of Clarity and Sanji's One Man Rescue Team!
September 26, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 61 MBIt's a jam packed episode this week, folks. Luffy and Zoro reclaim their confidence when they hear of Robin's true motives, Zoro seems to be developing a sixth sense for cursed blades, and we're reunited with the chef with the twirly eyebrows. We also ponder nautical terms, and wonder if Geese can be classified as boats. Also, Jimmy Neutron and Fairy Tail references this week.
Water 7 Saga, Episode 10: Franky's Backstory is Revealed! Tom is the Best and Spandam Sucks!
September 12, 2019 13:00 - 56 minutes - 51.4 MBIt's time for another trip to flash back land, where we meet two new characters. Join us as we come to the realize that weapons... can be used as weapons, and even more government corruption is revealed, what a shocker! Also, we predict Usopp will return as a martial arts master, allowing Luffy to win the tournament!
Water 7 Saga, Episode 9: CP9 Makes Their Move! Top Ten Anime Betrayals!
August 29, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 76.3 MBAt long last, we get to see the faces behind the masks of the CP9, and they're familiar to a lot of us! We discover what Iceberg has, and whether or not it's Robin's soul in a jar, and we get super amazing kung fu powers! The action is really ramping up, and the building is going to blow in just a few more minutes!
Kuro Neko Con 2019: 20 Years of One Piece
August 22, 2019 13:00 - 36 minutes - 33 MBJoel and Kat attended Kuro Neko Con, and talked about what makes One Piece so great, and why it has remained so popular after 20+ years of publication. They also talk spoilers, end-of-series theories, and take audience questions. Warning, here there be spoilers for the entire series, not just what had been previously covered.
Water 7 Saga, Episode 8: The Battle Against a Cyborg! Robin Attempts to Perform a Murder!
August 15, 2019 13:00 - 43 minutes - 40.2 MBThis episode has a lot of silliness from the three hosts, including speculation about Mayoral Murder groups, and a badly sung opening. But really, that's just to offset all the unease that's going around town. Iceberg was almost murdered, and the Straw Hats are taking the heat for it! Plus, Franky is a Cyborg??
Water 7 Saga, Episode 7: The Raid on Franky House! The Fated Duel Between Friends!
August 10, 2019 02:34 - 1 hour - 62 MBThis is an emotional episode for all involved, lovely readers. Usopp has even more violence incited upon him! The Monster Trio and special guest Chopper break the Franky family! Usopp and Luffy duke it out! But this episode isn't all somber reflection and tears, we also briefly consider whether Franky is made out of Spinach, and whether Iceburg may have Robin's soul in a jar! Things are getting intense, but you can count on us to grit and bear it and muck it all up with bad jokes!
Water 7 Saga, Episode 6: Welcome to Water 7! Usopp's Very Bad Day!
July 18, 2019 22:00 - 1 hour - 58.5 MBThis episode is something of a double header, combining our thoughts on the sixth One Piece Movie (Baron Omatsuri's Secret Island), as well as our introduction to Water 7. We meet lots of colorful new characters, including a pigeon that controls the minds of men, and a... bunny... cat? Curtis weaves a tale of the Capulets and the Romulans, we uncover a secret society of nine celestial ponies, and Joel discovers Venice in the real world was based off of the fictional city of Water 7. Wow! ...
Water 7 Saga, Episode 5: Foxy's Return! A Formidable Foe Gives Robin the Cold Shoulder!
July 11, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 61.9 MBThis episode of the podcast is brought to you by pheasants. Yes, pheasants. We realize we know nothing about them, and also we're getting sick of Foxy. The good news is he isn't here for long, and we can instead talk about admiral Aokiji. We play the prediction game of what the admirals will be like, and we get some hints about Robin's past. And Luffy's strangely enough. Did you know he had a grandpa? We sure didn't
Water 7 Saga, Episode 4: The Tale Of Lost Memories! Who Are You Again?!
July 04, 2019 13:00 - 53 minutes - 49.2 MBWe cover a whole filler arc, the Ocean's Dream Arc, and we struggle to find anything nice to say about it, honestly. Joel's disbelief can no longer be suspended, and Curtis accidentally stumbles upon a great new segment: "Buggy Time!" We also later stumble upon the idea of a One Piece centered talk show. In fact, perhaps we should combine those two ideas into one. Buggy Time airing on Primetime television this Winter! Plus, could Robin and Chopper be the ultimate shonen duo?
Water 7 Saga, Episode 3: The Davy Back Starts Anew! Battle of the Captains!
June 29, 2019 19:31 - 42 minutes - 38.8 MBJust when you thought the Davy Back had concluded, Luffy agrees to 3 more rounds! We get 2 wacky games: Dodgeball and Red Light, Green Light, but then we get to the heart of these episodes: A Mano y Mano Captain versus Captain battle, and Luffy unlocks his inner wildness with a new outfit! We spend a lot of time head canon-ing our own ideas, but not before we give these episodes their proper respect.
Water 7 Saga, Episode 2: The Davy Back Fight Continues! The Unlikely Duo in the Groggy Ring!
June 20, 2019 13:00 - 58 minutes - 53.6 MBWe witness 2 more rounds of the Davy Back Fight, and then Luffy... saves a horse. Although this moment is filler, Joel defends it as an interesting reflection of Luffy's character. We also talk about a gamified devil fruit, and the use of time magic by the Straw Hats. Curtis notices that something feels off about that third match, and Joel gushes about that Zoro Sanji team up. ANTI MANNER... KICKA COUUURSE!
Water 7 Saga, Episode 1: The Straw Hats Land at Long Ring Long Land! The Davy Back Fight Begins!
June 13, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 57 MBA new arc brings a new villain and a new form of pirate battle: The Davy Back fight! We talk about the new opening and closing songs for these episodes, as well as our impressions of how the Davy Back Fights might play out, and how well we think Chopper and Zoro handled their upsetting loss in the first round!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 17: Welcome to Navarone! The Strawhats face off against G-8!
June 06, 2019 13:00 - 50 minutes - 46.6 MBIn this episode, we tackle a filler arc in its entirety in one episode! Plus, it's the longest, and potentially, greatest One Piece filler ever! We talk Robin being a clever woman, we talk Luffy and Zoro being sidelined, we talk Sanji reaching peak levels of being annoying, and we talk Chopper's career as an actor! We love Vice Admiral Jonathan, and we also welcome the strongest member of the Straw Hat pirates aboard the crew: Condoriano!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 16: Sky Island is Saved! God is Vanquished!
May 30, 2019 17:14 - 1 hour - 71.4 MBWe close out the Skypeia arc with discussion of Eneru as a villain, our thoughts on Jaya/Skypeia as a whole, theories about space and Poseidon! Curtis is unhappy with the warrior giants we saw near the beginning of the series, and we also have tangents aplenty- some focused on mustaches.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 15: The 400 Year Old Friendship! Wyper's Fury Finally Explained!
May 23, 2019 13:00 - 41 minutes - 38.4 MBBefore we can see how the Skypeia arc will end, first it's time for some flash backs! However, we find Calgura and Montblanc Noland to be incredibly interesting. Actually, they're both pretty good looking people, and we agree that Calgura has "Big Bowser" energy. Ho boy, even 400 years ago we have ourselves a grand adventure!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 14: Escape From the Ark Maxim! The Straw Hats Are in a Play!
May 16, 2019 13:00 - 51 minutes - 47.1 MBThere's a lot to discuss in this episode, and the Straw Hats are managing to just barely keep one step ahead of Eneru! Usopp and Nami show courage, Sanji demonstrates a plan, and then we spend some time talking about the time the Straw Hats were in a play. And to top it all off, we compare the cool factor of Zoro and Sanji
Sky Island Saga, Episode 13: Zoro Gets His Own Movie! The Tale of Mystic Sword Rituals!
May 09, 2019 13:00 - 42 minutes - 39.1 MBWe take a break from Sky Island's climactic final battle to watch the sixth one piece movie, ostensibly centering on Zoro... Except it isn't, really. We discuss what worked well about this film, but mostly on where it fell flat. And, of course, we can't discuss non-canon material without once more trying to pitch our own versions of the movie or alternate realities we'd like to see.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 12: Eneru Returns from the dead! Rubber Man versus Rumble Man!
May 02, 2019 13:00 - 59 minutes - 54.3 MBYes, it's time for the final, epic showdown between Luffy and Eneru! Except... it gets cut short, but not before we get TAAAAAKO HAAAANABI! Joel loses his mind, and Curtis briefly considers the possibility of Aisa being a super powerful witch. Conis has a super badass moment, and we also discuss Logias and their natural weaknesses.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 11: The Zoro Wyper Power Hour! An extended Vore-cation!
April 25, 2019 13:00 - 56 minutes - 52 MBThe action is really picking up now! The Survival game enters its final round, Zoro and Wyper have gone absolutely crazy in Upper Yard, and Nami and Robin somehow finds themselves among a group of far more blood-thirsty and battle-tested warriors. But it's all okay, because Wyper seems to have KILLED Eneru? Incredible! Also, before his defeat, we see him ranting like a madman- he has entered his second form!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 10: Robin's Archeology Adventure! Eneru Zips Into the Fray!
April 18, 2019 13:00 - 56 minutes - 51.7 MBThis episode gives Robin her first canonical chance to shine as a Strawhat in combat, giving us a few hints as to this "void century" she's always hinting at. But mostly we just hate on Gedatsu, easily the most useless of Eneru's priests. We also go into which fights we've found the most entertaining thus far, being particularly grateful that the less fight-oriented members of the crew have been holding their own.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 9: The Survival Game Begins! Sky Warfare Rages!
April 11, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 63 MBThis thrilling episode brings you a heated 3 way death battle in God's land! Eneru predicts that the fighters will be reduced to just 5 members in 3 hours time, and also he has GOAT PEOPLE under his command??? What nonsense is this! We also talk about the new opening and closing songs, and we discuss whether Buggy and Alvida are the Team Rocket of One Piece. Oh! And Zoro totally gets a long range attack. With his swords. Yup, just another day in anime pirate land.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 8: Shandorians on the attack! The crew goes Treasure Hunting!
April 04, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 61.1 MBThe battle with Satori rages and reaches its conclusion. Plus, Nami makes a startling discovery about the so-called "vearth" up in Skypeia. What all could it mean?!? But more importantly than that, we have a mother-flippin' WOLF PARTY on our hands! Will Nami meet the wolf man of her dreams? What sort of things would we put in our surprise balls? How would the Straw Hats serve Luffy if he were bestowed the title of god and they were his priests? All this and more in this week's episode!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 7: The Ordeal of Spheres! Chopper All On His Own!
March 28, 2019 13:00 - 48 minutes - 44.3 MBIn this episode Luffy, Usopp and Sanji attempt to fight an opponent who appears to be psychic?? We speculate about a viable strategy to defeat this opponent, and Curtis is asked to predict how similar the other 3 priests will be to Satori. We also cleverly deduce Eneru is nothing more than a rogue AI controlling an orbital satellite, and we talk about Straw Hat crew member fusions.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 6: Welcome to Skypeia! God is Watching Everything You Do!
March 21, 2019 13:00 - 52 minutes - 48.3 MBWe've made it to the skies in this episode, a place that has masked warriors, a sky knight and his terrifying bird-horse, and... angels? Worry not folks, we're fairly certain the crew didn't die on the trip up the knock up stream, but you never know. Plus, the straw hat crew are already criminals on the sky island? That totally changes... nothing for the crew, really. Oh, and did we mention god might be the Big Bad for this arc?! Holy smokes, potentially literally!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 5: Onwards, to the skies! We get a TON of world building!
March 14, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 80.6 MBWe have so much to talk about this episode. "Pirate Santa" is revealed to be none other than Marshal D. Teach, AKA Blackbeard! A villainous D? Say it ain't so! And all those other Jaya weirdos are all part of his crew! We talk Whitebeard's first appearance, we talk Blackbeard's crew and their aesthetic, we talk about the Shichibukai/Seven Warlords, the Gorosei/Five Elder Stars, and Fleet Admiral Sengoku! So much "stuff" to discuss!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 4: Dead End Adventure! A Grand Pirate Race
March 07, 2019 14:00 - 48 minutes - 44.7 MBBefore we can continue our journey towards the Sky Island, we first must embark on the fourth One Piece movie! We see a glimmer of hope lost in the writing, pacing, and characterization, but we have fun imagining what this movie could have been in an alternate reality. So get ready to listen to us spend too much time talking about furnaces, and just bashing pretty much everything in this movie except the concept!
Sky Island Saga, Episode 3: Pies Vs Beer! A Whole Batch of New Characters!
February 28, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 60.8 MBWe've managed to escape the terror filled waters that is the Filler Ocean, and get to meet a bunch of brand new characters for our 50th episode! We've got Pirate Santa, someone who calls himself Bellamy the Hyena, a luchador, you name it! Plus, we play some extra exciting trivia games with Curtis. Thank you for joining us for 50 episodes. Truly, our listeners were our greatest treasure this whole time.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 2: Let's Do The Time Warp! Taxation is Theft!
February 21, 2019 14:00 - 38 minutes - 35.7 MBBefore the real season 3 content can start, our podcasters first must endure one final trial of filler. We have robot suits, time travel, and a rainbow mist, and we have more criticisms than we do praise. Plus, we discover filler names are hard to remember, Plus we talk a little more about Kingdom Hearts.
Sky Island Saga, Episode 1: The Tale of Zenny! An Inordinate Number of Goats!
February 14, 2019 14:00 - 52 minutes - 48 MBLook, the actual anime had a plot with an old man and some goats. The goats were cute and Zenny is fine- neither great nor awful. So once again, we get distracted by other topics! We discuss the series "best girl" so far, we get distracted by Kingdom Hearts for a fair bit, and then focus on who Coby's rival could be, as well as reflecting on Luffy's personality and whether it's a good fit for the role of Pirate King. Oh, and Kathryn finds us the shadiest of sponsors. We're just going t...
Alabasta Saga, episode 19: Some of the Worst Filler Ever! Backstory gallore!
February 07, 2019 14:00 - 49 minutes - 45.3 MBWe could dwell on 5 less-than-stellar filler episodes to end the Alabasta saga, or we could discuss the bigger narrative picture. We discuss the importance of children in One Piece, we speculate about future crew members and the state of the Warlords of the Sea, and Vivi's role in the series going forward. Lastly, if you wish to donate to Joel's Bridgade and help us in our fight against Type 1 Diabetes, please visit https://www2.jdrf.org/site/TR?fr_id=7684&pg=team&team_id=277419
Alabasta Saga, episode 18: A Farewell to Vivi! Welcome Robin to the Crew!
January 31, 2019 14:00 - 47 minutes - 43.1 MBIt is, sadly, time to depart from Alabasta, but not before Mr. 2 Bon Clay makes a surprising return! Curtis speculates about future Warlords of the Sea the crew may encounter, and the marines get a lot of focus. Tashigi gets some character growth and Smoker's best friend Hina shows up, along with 2 familiar faces! Get ready folks, Season 2 is quickly coming to an end!
