One Piece Eps 284-285 (full)

One Piece Eps 284-285 (full)

Comments

Ya, the anime was catching up to manga around this time, so they used flashbacks to fill time. You might consider doing 3 episodes instead of 2 for a while. Especially when things are just building up.

Didn't the Miss Merry Christmas, Mole woman said that fusing Devil Fruits into objects was a new technology that the government had found?

Nanach

and that's a spoiler, because we get the information way later in the Anime.

We have already seen "Objects eatings fruits" the Bazooka-Dog form Alabasta was a Bazooka eating a Dog Dog Fruit. It is supposed to confused you and it wioll get explained more and more. Right now Devil fruits are a huge mystery at this point in the show and one of the most intrigueing things over the time beeing developed and digged into. Also 284 is so good the whole episode for me is a "Leap of faith" with Franky believeing in the Strawhats against the odds and Luffy literally taking a Leap of faith.

So there's nothing "important" important in the filler episodes 279-282 you skipped: they're mainly flashback episodes showcasing the moments that led each member of the straw hats to truly tie their fates to Luffy, to become a true member of the straw hat pirates.They also feature the inner thoughts of those members as they're waiting for the drawbridge to be lowered.It isn't necessary, but it might be nice if you were to watch them on your own sometime before the final battle and give us your opinion on them,perhaps as part of the intro for one of the new reactions Just keep in mind that they're re-using the original footage from the episodes in question and are mainly to show why each member of this crew is so willing to put everything on the line to rescue Robin.

A scientist by the name of Doctor Vegapunk discovered a method to feed devil fruits to objects. Back in Alabasta, the dog that shot baseballs out its mouth was actually a cannon that ate the Dog Dog Fruit: Dachshund Model.

Everyone! Get ready for the introduction of Zoro's most powerful sword!

Personally, I ADORE the Kumadori gags

The Guy Usopp is going against is supposed to be third strongest if we go by the power levels which were shown. Lucci, Kaku and Jabra in that order.

Pyromaani

Yea its noticeable but doesnt rlly become issue till you catch up and can just watch 1 episode a week. xD

Pyromaani

One Piece logic really does take the reigns here especially in regard to Funkfreed. But this is actually not the first time we've seen a weapon consuming a devil fruit! If you remember, in Alabasta, Mr. 4 had a cannon that ate the Mutt-Mutt fruit.

svt

and yea the pacing is getting slower compared to what it was.

Pyromaani

It's amazing Zoro managed to find someone before Chopper could sniff someone out.

Tom Jones

Like you mentioned, the anime reallyyyy starts stretching out the beginning recaps and still-shots and it messes with the pacing of the story imo. Mostly it's the studio just trying to keep the series with the year round model vs seasonal...but real episode content kinda suffers.

Don Julio

Time for action! These are some great fights! Also the whole "how can a sword eat a fruit" - put a pin in that! There are some strange things that happen with Devil Fruits in One Piece and trying to figure out/understand how they work is a big part of the lore!

Amlet

The thing is back in Alabasta When Robin did read the poneglyph it revealed where the orginal Pluton is and the blueprints are there for the build another pluton if the orginal pluton was in use. To make em fight each others.

Pyromaani

yay!

GainingGamer

So uh, a heads up, Kumadori, the pink CP9 Member, he seems weird to American audiences, but he’s actually basically a very heavily exaggerated Japanese 仙人/Sennin/Sage stereotype. He’s actually pretty funny lol
