  Speaker 1: This is an Unspoiled Network podcast. This is spoil Me,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: covering one piece episodes seven forty four through seven forty
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: six No Way Out. Admiral Fujitra's ruthless pursuit Sun's cups,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: the straw Hat Fleet is formed, and the numerous rivals
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: struggle amongst themselves the raging monsters of the New World.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: In these episodes, Loofy is getting a fleet, whether he
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: likes it or not, apparently, and there is a power
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: vacuum that is resulting in some real future problems for
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: our gang. Welcome to spoil Me. Welcome to the show everyone.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I am Natasha. Thank you very much to Florian for
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: commissioning this episode, and thank you very much to Florian
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: for being flexible because I had to move the recording.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I won't even say at the last second, because I
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: did not have a chance to get in touch with
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Florian until long after I should have recorded already to
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: let him know. So there's my bad. But appreciate you
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: a lot, definitely, So this trio of episodes, I actually
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: really really enjoyed you guys know how mad I was
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: in the last grouping because Fuji Toa just pissed me off.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: And it's so funny because the first of these three episodes,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: No Way Out Admiral Fujiitorro's ruthless pursuit, it basically just
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: cemented how I e about him, with him being about
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: to drop a bunch of rubble on the straw hats,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and then they get away due to the people in
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the town basically conspiring to like cover for Lufy, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: this fucking dude backs off and is just like, I
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: bet you have such a kind heart, and I am
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: so sorry. I understand that not everybody agrees with me. Seraphm.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: I get you, I get where you're coming from, But
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, I just I cannot
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: with a person who believes one thing and is about
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: to do the opposite of that thing, Like there's there
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: has got to be a reason that feels really ironclad
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: for me, and I just don't really feel it with him.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: He's just not. Just for those who are not in
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the discord and apology Seraphim, because you're not here, I'm
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: kind of making this argument on your behalf. But Seraphim's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: argument in the discord is that Fujiitura was playing a
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: long game that he didn't want to step in against
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Do Flamingo, because then the World government would be able
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: to take credit because Fujiitura is their guy. And that
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: also there is in a previous episode a mention of
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the fact that Fujiita was conscripted, not a volunteer for
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: the Marines, So there's a possibility that, like he can't
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: even quit, that that's not an option for him. Now
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: as far as the long game thing, what I said
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: in the discord was like, I understand this, but I
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: also feel like he still could have helped against Do
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Flamingo and then done that big public transmission with the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: apology and made it clear that he was given the
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: opposite of the orders that he actually carried out, and
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I think it's would have had the same effect. But
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the idea that he was maybe conscripted and doesn't have
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: a choice about being in the Marines or not, I
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: find it a compelling argument, but I don't feel like
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the show has done enough to make it clear if
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: that is the case. If it's the case, then yeah,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: that's definitely like something to take into consideration with him
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: trying to work against the system because he is forced
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: to be in the system and doesn't want to be
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: and if that like in that sense, I would actually
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: really admire the attempt here, but the show just didn't
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: really illustrate that adequately for me. So it just comes
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: across as somebody who is part of the Marines knows
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: that they're up to no good is and is sort
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: of trying to have his cake and eat it too,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and like fight the Marines but not too hard, and like,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna try and do the right thing,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: but like in such a way that it really doesn't
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: look like you're trying. And the whole thing with him
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: holding all of this rubble over their heads and saying,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: you need to feel the weight of the destruction you wrought.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I will never recover from the fact that he says
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that to them, after the damage that he inflicted on
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: dress Rosa himself, and the fact that these are the
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: people who saved dress Rosa. They had nothing to do
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: with this destruction. All of this was either do Flamingo
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: himself or his people that did this. So there's I
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: don't feel like really much to be said in his
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: defense regarding that particular accusation. So anyway, I can understand
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: where Seraphim is coming from, but none of that is
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: just it's inadequate for me, and I just find him
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to be one of those people that's like, in a
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: way makes me more infuriated because he's straddling this line
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: and it feels like is unwilling to really commit one
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: way or the other, which is so accurate to how
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: real life is that seeing it in something like this
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: makes it feel all the more infuriating. I know I
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: keep using that word, but I'm sorry. There it is.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Florian says, I'm fifty to fifty with him. I can
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: take him or leave him, if that makes sense. I'm
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: also a Libra though, yeah, Libra vibes here also, Florian,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: so I very much get you on that. So let's
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: start off with the Ruthless Pursuit, which there's a fun
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: visual here of everybody heading down this extremely long doc
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I guess that is several miles long, with all of
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: these different ships set up next to it, and this
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: dude who he says that it's like his fleet and
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: that they made a doc or Lumbus is that how
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: you say his name? And he says they've extended ropes
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to a bridge sturdy enough to support even our most
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: sizeable allies in their escape and it's a good thing
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: he says that, because then we see the giant heading
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: toward them and literally leaping onto it, and I was
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: just like, holy shit, this is a very fun bit,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: and especially the giant is holding onto Loofy because Lufy
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: was trying to continue his fight with Fuji Tora, and
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: pretty much everybody is like, Lufy, Loofy, Loofy, Hey, hey
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: stop it, no, no, Loofy, do not do that. And
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I found it genuinely amusing the fact that, like, this dude,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: because the giant is holding Loofy in his fist the
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: way that he is. What it reminded me of is
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: when you're trying to get a cat to take a
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: pill and you have to burrito the cat and a
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: towel to keep its claws out of the way so
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: that you can shove its mouth open and just push
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the pill down its throat. So it just kept like,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: we just keep going back to this imagery of Loofy
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: in his fist, and it just made me think of
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: wrapping up a very disgruntled cat in a towel, and
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: that the fact that they have to do that to
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Lufy feels actually really really appropriate and it takes a
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: while before Loofy is finally convinced that this fight isn't
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: going to occur and that it's not worthwhile to continue this,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: you know. Meanwhile on land, Fujiitura is still standing there
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: in his uh swirling dust and debris, looking real fucking serious,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: and he's thinking, if you think I'll simply let you escape,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: you're mistaken, And he shoves his fist forward and this
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: massive cloud of broken masonry begins to float forward over
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: all of the ships. And at this point I was
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: so pissed at him. I was so angry. You do
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: not even understand. It's just like, no matter what front
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: you're keep, you're trying to keep up here the thing,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: you know, Like, I'm so disgusted. So anyway, he like
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: the fact that he is about to be to either
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: willingly kill Loofy or to willingly put Loofy in impal Down,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: which we know is a place with a lot of
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: torture in it. After everything that Loofy did for this community,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: that he was about to like resort to this, I
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: will never forgive it. I won't be able to get
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: over it. I'm so sorry. And he begins to do
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: this thing where there. It's a weird thing with the
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: animation where you're seeing this like almost pulsing circle that's
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: like a dark It almost looks like in film when
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: they're when you have to change over the real when
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: you're watching a movie, like on an old fashioned film screen,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: there's like a ring that will pop up a bright
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: light in the corner of the screen to signal to
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: the person who's working the projector that they have to
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: switch over the film. And it kind of looks like
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: that sort of ring, but dark instead of bright, and
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: it's like here and there and here and there. And
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: then when you start to see some of the bigger
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: chunks of debris beginning to like move together and clump,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: and I think it was looking almost like there was
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: a sort of magnetized thing happening. I'm not really entirely
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: sure what this was meant to signify, because even if
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: you have all of these chunks like clinging to one another,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: does that make it more devastating than just the cloud
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of debris would have been to begin with? Anyway, I'm
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: not really sure if that makes it like more intimidating necessarily,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: it just feels like it's pretty bad to begin with,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: maybe this is supposed to be like what he's doing
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: to enable the cloud to move forward away from him
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: and still remain contained and in control. I don't know.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: So everybody who is like on the land is watching this,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: going what the hell is happening with this thing? Eventually
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: King Rico is like, why is he doing this? And
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Viola has to be the one to say, like, he's
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: chasing straw Hat, it's following him. And you see Ricu
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: like start sweating because he's understandably, I owe straw Hat
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: so fucking much after everything, and this dude is about
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: to take him down with this? Are you serious? So
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: then we go to this speech that he has. I
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: know how you must feel right now, straw Hat. Although
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I cannot see the havoc I have wrought, I know
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: it looms heavily before your eyes, a dark sky that
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: suffocates any hope for escape. The moment you try to
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: set sail, this rubbable fall like an endless rain, sinking
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: every ship into the abyss below. Surely you must know,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: even if by some miracle you do escape me, the
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: four Emperors will hound your every step. By defeating Joker,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: you've put a target on your back. Your life will
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: be a living hell until at last they claim your neck.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: You took pity on me for my blindness, but the
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: truth is this was an injury that I brought upon myself.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: These eyes were closed by my own actions because they
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: saw too many things that I didn't care for, things
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: that I wished they hadn't. And I thought for sure
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: when he said this, that we were going to get
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: a flashback at this moment, and that we were suddenly
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: going to see what awful thing he went through, and
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the fact that he blinds himself. It was just such
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: a It just felt like such a perfect setup, you know.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: And we don't get any further explanation. We just that's
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the end of that speech. We have the cloud that's
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: like all formed over the ships, and eventually there's this
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to find the moment where that dark, sort
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: of pulsing black I don't even know what to call it.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I keep wanting to call it like a barcode, because
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: that's the weirdness of the He says, this is the
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: end of your story, and bits of the cloud begin
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: to rain. He doesn't drop everything all at once. There's
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: just like individual pieces as these pieces are beginning to fall.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: We hear some yelling and some footsteps and somebody yells out,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: where's Rebecca? Give her back to us, Loofy. Whatever you're planning,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: we're gonna stop it. And you guys know, like last episode,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I was just sort of over the townspeople. I was
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: very much feeling like, these guys are fucking useless and
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: keep screwing things up for everybody, and I am sick
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: of it. And there was just a feeling for me
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: of like you could keep getting your ass saved so
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: many times that I don't feel like you deserve it anymore.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: You're not even trying. And it was really fun actually
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: in this episode to have this thing happen that happens here.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: They're rushing forward and it seems like they're doing the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: thing that I was real pissed at them for doing
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: last episode, which is turning on Lufy yet again, even
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: though he's saved their asses. And then we have Fuji
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Tora like he's at first just sort of guys, why
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: are you running this way? There's just pirates over there.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I have this under control, Stay out of it. He's
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: really baffled why so many people are getting involved. And
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: then he tunes in so to speak, because you know,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: he has a heightened sense of hearing due to being blind,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: and he hears people like one of the kids saying, wait,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I thought Lufy was our friend. Why are we doing
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: this again, and the kid's parents saying, just play along.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: We're doing this because as long as we are in
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: the way of all of that rubble, Fujiita won't let
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: it drop. So by doing this, we're saving straw Hat's life.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, I loved this so much.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: It made me so happy. It's about day time. This
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: crew of people is made to do something for Loofy
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: for a change. He's out here doing everything for them. Yes,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: pay that shit back, thank you, appreciate it. And there
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: was just so much about this, Like there's also the
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: fact that they bring up how nobody ever talks about it,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: but Rebecca's father is actually heros and they live in
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: that cottage out on the hillside, and they used to
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: be a family with Scarlet and all the adults in
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the kingdom have known that for sixteen years now. Of
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: course we knew the truth about the fairies too, but
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: we kept the secret to protect them. So you guys,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: the fact that everybody knew about this, You know what
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Right then, why are we doing it?
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: And I think we're meant to be like, oh, okay,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: we're not really doing it. Later on, because King Riku
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: says something about how Rebecca and Kiros are going to
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: be coming for dinner. They're not even coming for dinner,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I believe, Rebecca says no, Viola says Rebecca is coming
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: to cook us dinner, which I definitely had a moment
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: of like wow. But in the end, I still feel like,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: if you guys are having her over, if the whole
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: town already knows, can we just like let go of
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: this weird story that we've set up about how she
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: has a prince for a father. Actually, like I I
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know anyway, it just seemed like
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: we're trying to sort of resolve that story be but
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: not in a way that feels like we're dealing with
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: it head on. It feels like very passive aggressive in
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: a way which anybody who has been listening to my
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: show for any amount of time understands how deeply contemptuous,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: contemptuous I am of passive aggressive, Like handling of situations.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: From what I understand of Japanese culture, it's like quite
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: a thing, you know. It's sort of in the same
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: vein that I think of waspy families, where it's much
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: more about appearances and reputation and keeping face. And so
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: I think that I'm just destined to be unsatisfied by
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: this plotline. I think, like ultimately, guys, where I stand
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: on this is that I am the most disappointed by
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: the fact that we went through that whole Heros and
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Rebecca storyline and never actually got a resolution where they
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: get to like be publicly together in a way that
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: makes them happy. So it feels like, well, why did
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: we go through all of that if we weren't even
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: going to get like an it's a happy ending and
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: that they get to be together. And I don't think
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: she really cares about being a princess. So it's not
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: exactly that I think she's unhappy. It's just that it
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: feels like there's a larger issue here that we haven't
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: dealt with, which is that these people who loved each
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: other had to like go and hide in such a way,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: and maybe the way things shook out wouldn't have happened
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: this way if they hadn't been set apart from the
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: rest of their family. You know, but I think it's
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: like supposed to be just the admirable story be of
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: her giving up being a princess so that she can
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: be with her father and the selflessness of that, and
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: how that's supposed to prove something about her, And you know,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: I guess, I guess it's just really not what I
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: was hoping for, and after everything, it was a little
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: bit flat for me, But you know, it is what
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: it is, so we get Kiros. This is when he's
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: like wondering what Lufy actually looks like, and he's thinking,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: you know, what is a shit your eyes? And what
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: does your smile look like? It's a shame. Wish I
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: could use these eyes for one last time to see
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: the face of a man like you. I'm sure it's
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: filled to the brim with kindness. This is what he
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: is saying about a man that he was about to
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: not only kill, but also kill like hundreds of other
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: people in order to kill. And now he's just like,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: I wish I could set eyes on your cute old face,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: because I bet you're real nice. If you don't get
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: the fuck out of my face with this bullshit. I
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: am never going to recover. This is such garbage. Oh
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: my god, And I know it's like supposed to be. Oh,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: I'm so glad I don't have to try and kill
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: you now, because I didn't want to do it in
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: the first place. I'm sorry, it's just not working. It's
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: not working for me. So we get everybody boarding the
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: ships and that one dude I can't remember his name,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: he says something about the l Fhab Pirates I think
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: is the name of them, but he says like they've
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: got something like seventy something ships, and he says that
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: they are at Lufy's disposal, and a bunch of other
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: dudes all throw in here as well. Now, this was
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: something that I felt like really did pay off in
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: a way that I wasn't expecting, because you guys know
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: that like a lot of the dudes here who wind
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: up throwing in are ones who were in the arena.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: They were part of that fight. And I was really
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of the dress Rosa arc just like
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: there are too many people to keep track of, friends.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm supposed to do with all
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: these these guys. Now, I still stand by that. I
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: definitely feel like there's too many people, But now that
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: we get to see them all becoming like kind of
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: extensions of Lufy's crew, at least, it feels like I
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: understand spending. I don't want to say as much time
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: with them as we did, but it makes it feel
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: a little bit like it was not such a waste
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: of time. And I know that doesn't sound like me
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: being like generous exactly, but you know what I'm saying,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Like it just did seem at the beginning of the arc,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: like I don't really get why I even want to
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: keep all these guys in my head. It's the waste
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: of real estate in there, and I have got to
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: use it for better things. And I don't necessarily feel
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: like I need to memorize all of their names or
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: anything at this point, but they all now whole slightly
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: more significance. So it's definitely feeling like, yeah, exactly. Sorry.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Florian's in the chat and says I did not expect this.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: I felt the same way you do. This kind of
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: makes sense looking back again, rewatching it is way more
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: interesting because of this, And yeah, that's what I was
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: going to say was like, I feel like we're not
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: for this. On a rewatch, I would definitely be sort
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: of like okay, okay, I get it, I get it,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: I get it. But because we wind up here, I
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: feel like it would make the rewatch a lot more
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: fun and it would feel a lot more rich because
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: it's like, you know something that maybe this information winds
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: up being, if not necessarily useful, at least kind of
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: a fun detail, you know, something a little bit juicy,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: And I like that aspect of it. So the way
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: that this works out this is so funny because I'm
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: trying to get to the part where, oh my god,
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: I forgot Cavendish, being like if I team up with you,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I'm sure to be the popular one, and Lufy's like, well,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not asking for help. I don't know what you
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: guys are even talking about. You can do whatever it
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: is you want. And then we've got the introduction with
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: each of their names and a little like it's Suliman
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: and Cavendish, the Beautiful Pirates with seventy five members. I
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: just love that they're called the Beautiful Pirates because Bruh
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Suliman no offense. But and then the Bartow Club with
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: fifty six members. I love you so much, Bartolomeo, I
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: love you so so much. I can't get enough of
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: this fucking guy. Then the Hapusi Hapo Sui Army Haposue.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Their leader is their thirteenth leader is Don Side. Of course,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: we have off to the side Baby five being like
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: looking good, honey, Oh my god, I love her so much.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Then Triple X Gym Fighting Alliance with four members. They're
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: led by Destruction Canon Dao IDEO's that guy with the
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: fucking shoulder pads. Tantakor with two hundred members. Their leader
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: is Leo the Warrior, and uh, let's see. Then we
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: have the soon to be Giant Pirates five members and growing.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Their captain is Hajrudin, and Hazrudin later on talks about
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: that he is going to be going around and getting
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: more of them together. And then Commodore of the yont
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Maria Fleet with forty three hundred members. Forty three hundred
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: members or Lumbus, that's his name, what a what a
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: fucking name. So Bartolomeo comes forward and niels and is like,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: we have fifty six hundred people total, and we want
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: to drink sake with you and do this ritual so
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: that you will be our leader, he says, so that
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: we can drink sake like father and son, which I
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: don't know if this is like a translation issue, but
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: you know, when he follows up, we humbly ask you
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: to take us under your wing. I'm sort of assuming
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: that the father something is just like mentor and mentee
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: or leader and you know, subjects sort of situation. And
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: so Bartolomeo asks Loofy this and we get like the
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: pan across to everybody else's reactions, and the episode ends,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: and then we go into the next one and Lufy says,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: no thanks, I'll pass. It's very funny because they fill
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: up a huge bowl with sake for him, and all
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I could think was if he's meant to take a
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: drink every time one of them takes a drink, This
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: dude is about to get fucked up. But yeah, they're already,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: they've poured the sake and it's not until they have
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: like finished setting all of this up. Loufy, by the way,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: is scowling throughout this whole thing, and by like once
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: he actually rejects them. I'm sorry, but there's just not
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: another way to say this the all the straw Hats
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: are sort of grinning and like, yeah, of course this
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: is how he's responding to this, whereas all of the
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: pirates who had been trying to sign up with him
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: are looking really sad. And at one point Bartolomeo was like,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: are we not good enough? What's the problem here, you guys?
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: I felt so sad because, like I'm I'm to let
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: you in on my headspace here. I do not believe
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: that this would have been the way to go for
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Louviy to like be in charge of all of these people.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: Luviy can barely handle being in charge of the straw Hats.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: I've argued many times that he really isn't even the leader. Really,
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: he's like the charismatic face of the straw Hats, but
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: like he's not in charge, you know, you know, he's
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: he has everybody in a choke hold because he just
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: decides to jump into stuff and they kind of have
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: to do whatever he has determined in order to keep
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: him from getting killed, which I'm not sure actually translates
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: to him being the leader. Just to be clear on
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: what I mean when I'm saying all of this, there
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is no need for Loofy to actually be in charge
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: in any real way, and I like as much as
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: a part of me did want this because it felt
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: like we were potentially turning a corner in the overall
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: story and that he was going to need more backup
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: because we are obviously with the whole like power vacuum
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: thing that gets talked about later. Yeah, there are going
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: to be a lot more people after Lufy and after
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: his friends specifically. I definitely agree with that. I believe that,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: but I also didn't see that this was going to
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: be the way to handle it. And if anything, it
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: might put more of a target on Lufy's back because
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: he's now the one in charge of this big fleet
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: after defeating Do Flamingo this way, maybe people would who
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: would have left him alone are now going to take
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: a second look at him because he's suddenly in charge
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: of all of these people. I had very mixed feelings.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: I really went back and forth on whether I liked
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: this or not. It just like the recording that I
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: did with Florian, I said something about how it really
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: seems like this is a turning point, and I wondered
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: as I was watching this, I was like, is this
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: what I was sensing that the turning point is suddenly
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: the strong get like huge and there's thousands of them,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: and even thinking it, I was just like, no, they
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be the straw hats. It wouldn't That's not who
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I would call. They can't all be straw hats. That's
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: the in group, that's the originals. There would have to
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: be some other name for them. And honestly, I couldn't
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: even think of something that I liked. I was just
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: like the Loofy pirates, like what is you know, like
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: wh So anyway, once he declines and says no, and
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: there's you know, just everybody sort of being like, I
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: feel like you're rejecting us. Here, Loofy says, guys, we
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: don't need to do all of it this way, like
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: we're all friends. We went through this together. If I'm
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: ever in trouble, I'll call you for help because I
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: know that you'll have my back. I don't need to
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: be a big shot or have a whole fleet for that.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: And if you ever need help, let us know and
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: we will definitely step up and be there for you. That's,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: you know, that's the most important thing. But and he
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: says at one point I don't need to be a
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: big shot. I just want to be King of the Pirates. Honestly,
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I really really loved that moment. There's like, you know,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: they do that boy oil sound where they anytime somebody
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: does something particularly stupid, and there's like a pause where
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: everybody is looking at each other. That's the music that plays.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: I couldn't help but understand what he meant by that.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Though he wants to be the best and on top
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: and find the one piece and all of that, but
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: in terms of like actually being in charge, that is
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: super not what's important to him, And I could see
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: why other people wouldn't understand what he means by that.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: But I also feel like that kind of tracks Weirdly,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: there was a part of me that felt like I
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: understood what he meant by it, even though it sounds
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: like a contradiction. So oh, Florian says, this is what
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: white Beard and his kids had, and kids is in
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: quotation marks Oh. I see. So they're trying to sort
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: of set him up to be like the new white
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Beard because Whitebeard's dead. Now I see, okay, this makes sense,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: thank you, Florian. White Beard is dead, right, I didn't
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: make that up him and acetied shit guys, the way
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: that my brain has lost track of so much it's
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: not awesome. So this like the whole uh bit here
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: with them deciding, you know what, fuck you, We're gonna
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: do it anyway. I cannot tell you how delighted I
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: found this. The whole way that this worked, I because
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Loofy tells them explicitly, you guys can do what you want,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and so they do and he's like, no, not like that.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: And I just couldn't stop laughing because this is what
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: you said, and everybody really believes in you, and I
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: get that you like didn't ask. But that's part of
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: the thing about being a leader is that you wind
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: up in that position, like despite yourself. I don't feel
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: like that's the right way to say it, but it's
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: just the sort of thing that, like when you exhibit
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: real leadership skills and other people recognize that in you,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: even if you try and put somebody else as the leader,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: they're instinctively going to do what you tell them over
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: what that person tells them, just because they see you
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: as being in charge. And there's something about that that
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: is difficult to undo, you know, Like, even when you
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: try and be like, don't ask me. I'm not in
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: charge here. If people think you are and they came
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: to you automatically, then it's gonna be some work to
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: convince them to go to this other person, and that's
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: gonna be like ongoing, you know. So Anyway, at this point,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: like Lufy gets real mad and tries to yell at
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: all of them for this, but I was just like, eh,
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: it's great. And Bartolomeo is the one who gets it.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: It's not about being big but being free. Of course
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Bartolomeo gets it. They are interrupted here by cannon fire,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: and Leo is like, what the fuck? I sewed all
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: their ships together. Who the fuck is messing with us
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: right now? And we look out there and we see
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: all of these pirates that were I am assuming with
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: do Flamingo attacking, And we also see that pile of
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: rubble is still fucking hovering. And I was sitting there
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: like which chore? I thought we I thought we were done.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: I thought we were done with this. I'm surprised it's
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: all still in the air. Well. It turns out to
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: be very convenient because soon chunks of this all begin
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: falling on the enemy ships, including the bottom half of
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: the like statue of Pika that he had been using,
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: which is the size of like half the island. And
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: this is when Fuji Toura says, that's my parting gift
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: straw hat I will give Fujiitura credit for this. It's
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: the one like fighting action that he has taken that
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: feels like, okay, at least she did something, you know.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of funny because it's set up like
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: it's going to be this whole thing with fighting against
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: these pirates, and then it's sort of a wrap really
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: really quickly, and then we get the organization of everybody
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: onto the ship that Bartolomeo made and all of the
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: partying and all of that. I'm trying to find the spot.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: There's a bunch of like flashback stuff in here that
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to really quickly blow past because we don't
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: need any of this, and so much of it is
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: about uh Kiros and Rebecca again, and I'm just like,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: uh whatever, oh okay. So the ship that Bartolomeo brings
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: them onto isn't until the third episode the numerous rivals struggle,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: so we'll go to that one. The ship that Bartolomeo
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: has waiting for them, you guys, Oh my god, it's
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: so it's it's it's a fandom ship. It is like
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: a few days ago, Florian sent me the like promo
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: trailer for the Lego that they're making for One Piece,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: and it kind of felt like if Lego had decided
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: not to stick to doing things exactly according to the show,
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: then maybe they would have made something like this. It's
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: first of all, got a huge sale that's like lime
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: green with maybe blue polka dots all over it that
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: vaguely resemble gunshot holes. But I don't think it's supposed to.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: It's just what I thought of because in the middle
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: there's one of those like comic book they're sort of
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: like starbursts that usually is used along with a sound effect.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: So it's like you've got all of these polka dots
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: and then that starburst over it, and it looks like
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: an action moment in a comic where something's getting shot at,
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: you know. Over that it says Bartow Club in huge
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: red letters. And then we've got the figurehead is Loofy
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: in his straw hat with his long, bendy, stretchy arms
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: moving backward along the sides of the ship. In the
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: middle is that Ram's head from the Going Mary, and
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: at the back is Chopper's head with his antlers and
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: his hat, and then there's of course the orange no
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: tangerine trees, So sorry that are paying respect to Nami.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: I kind of thought we were going to get like
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: one thing for every member of the Straw Hats that
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: was included on this ship, and they don't do that,
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: but I was fine with it. You know, it might
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: be that we get reveals of other things later on
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: as things continue as well. But just how excited Bartolomeo
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: is to show this off, how much work he put
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: into it, Like he's talking about all of these mastership
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: rights that he got in touch with and the people
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: that he consulted with to make things, and it is
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: just so delightful. I just every bit of this was
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: exactly what I wanted. It was just great. So, yeah,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: they're the ones that are going to be uh Bartow's
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: ship is going to be the one that gets them
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: where they're going next. Really quickly. I'm trying to back
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: up here because there's a conversation between some people we have,
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: like the the opening of the episode is law and
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: he's like staring out at the water broodingly as he does,
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: and there's this sort of a weird moment here in
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: my mind. I'm interested in either how you guys interpreted
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: this or if there is maybe like a translation thing. Oh,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: I should bring that up as well. Sarahim was, you know,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: in Defensive Fujiitra. In the discord, Saraphim said something about
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: how it must be a translation issue because the word
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: whimsical isn't at all in the subversion. It's it's you know,
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: definitely in the dub, but that they clearly didn't mean
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: it the way that it came across in the dub.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what. Like the speech that he
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: gives in the sub the Saraphim posted, like, I think
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: all of the text of it in the discord, and
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: it bears like this, it's like the same general idea
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: as the speech in the dub, but it has a
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: real different Like there's enough of a difference to me
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: that I do feel like they fucked up the translation
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: a little bit. I don't know, it's hard to you
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, I just would I wonder
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: why they chose the word whimsical. I wonder what came
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: into their head to do that, because frankly, nothing in
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: the speech that Saraphim shared seems to really justify the
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: use of that word specifically. But anyway, the thing with
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: Trafalgar Law looking out and being moody, the reason that
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about, like maybe there's another translation issue or something,
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: is just because Robin comes up and asks, she stands
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: next to him and is just like, what is it
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: that you're thinking about? And long story short, he basically
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: just tells her leave me alone, which is fine. But
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: after he says leave me alone and walks away, she
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: sort of gazes after him and then sort of goes
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: hm and smiles in a way that felt to me
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: like it was wholly inappropriate for somebody who seemed to
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: be sad and emotional looking off into the distance telling
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: you they want you to back off and leave them alone,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: to sort of like grin and seem vaguely amused by it.
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: I just didn't really understand that moment at all, and
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm missing something. And I know that
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: you guys have said a few times that the way
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: that Robin is portrayed in the sub just gives her
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: a whole different vibe to the way that she is
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: in the dub So I'm wondering is it her? Did
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: they translate Trafalgar weirdly? You know, like what was going
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: on there? Because it was a moment that just doesn't
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: really go anywhere and I couldn't understand the point of it.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: But anyway, so this is when we go to the
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Royal Palace and they're talking about when I say the
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: Royal Palace, I want to read exactly how this is
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: describe here. Let's see, No, it just says the Royal Palace.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming that this is with the other celestial dragons.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: There's a when you say royal palace, is that Riku's palace?
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: I don't understand who that? It can't be right, I'm
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: trying to see. There's also the mention of Lucci talking.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: Is Lucie the one that we met? Did we meet
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: this guy before? Is this the dude who was one
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: of the I can't remember the name of that other
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: group that eventually a guy has a zebra power and whatnot.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm getting some people mixed up here.
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: But apparently, let's see Cipher Pole agis zero. That's the
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: name of the guy who's talking here, and he has
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: a real weird sort of beard with like a puffball
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: on the end, and he is accompanied by a dude
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: with a weird series of like what looks like pieces
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: of metal or leather as a mask, but the way
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: it's sitting on his face, it almost looks like they're
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: actually directly fastened to his face. This dude is reporting
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: that all of these weapons that were on Dress Rosa
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: and being stored there have apparently disappeared, and they have
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: decided that the way all of this was done, so
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: many weapons carried out in such a short time, it
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: had to be a group that was pretty large and
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: pretty organized, and so they are going with the revolutionaries,
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: which is as we know correct. So this is the
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: fact that the revolutionaries have managed to get so many weapons. Awesome.
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: I'm delighted by that. But uh oh, Florian says CP nine.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: That's how big and im and that's how I took it.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: He has a pigeon, Okay. If there's something about him
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: that looks different, and I don't don't know if it's
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: on purpose or if he just changed up his designer,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: if I'm remembering wrong, I don't know. So then we
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: have this like little sort of intermittent moment of viola
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: dancing flamenco and the narrator talking about how they're drowning
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: out their sorrows with the sound of music, and King
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: Rico like being amongst the people announcing that he is
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: coming back to the king, the king of the or
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: the chieftain of the Tantata, introducing himself and his daughter
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: and the Tantata are working on this huge statue memorial
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: to the people who helped save their kingdom. And then
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: eventually we go back to Fujiitura and Sengoku, and fujiitur
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: is saying like, I'm gonna head on out because until
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: I get law and straw hat, I'm really not going
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: to be able to show my face anywhere, and Sengoku
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: is like, all you need to do is apologize and
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: then Sakazuki can save face, and he says, I don't
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: want to. I want to save face too, and I
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: just like, at least he admits it's that petty. I guess.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know, I don't see it
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: for this guy. I will say though, that the scene
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: made me deeply want noodles like very very badly. So
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: it's got that going for it, and then we've got
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: do Flamingo talking to Suru. This was because, like when
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: Rebecca says earlier to Law, what's the matter do Flamingo
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: is nothing but a bad memory. I had a moment
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: of like, wait, what is he dead? I didn't think
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: he was dead. I thought, wait, what you know. I
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: definitely had a moment of like, did I misunderstand? And
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: then I realized, like, thinking back, I genuinely don't know
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: what happened to him, you know. So when we come
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: here and we actually get to see him chatting with Suru,
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, okay, thank god we are checking
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: in on this, because all of a sudden, I started
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: doubting a lot of what I had assumed was going
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: on with him, because I really thought he was left
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: alive and just taken prisoner, and so to actually get
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: to see him reassured me a little bit. Don't get
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: me wrong, by the way, personally, i'd rather he was
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: dead for the sake of simplicity, for the sake of
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: this story, though I will acknowledge it's better that he
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: still be here. And I also just like the way
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: that he's talking to her. I was so frustrated with
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: him because he's just the I really appreciated that once
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: he comes to the end of what he's saying, Suru
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: just says, do you really believe the garbage that pours
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: out of your mouth? Which honestly had me cracking up
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: a little bit. I thought that was really funny. What
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: he is saying, which is not, to be clear, technically incorrect,
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: is just that all of this, like if Fujiitura had
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: wanted to throw in with me, none of this would
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: have happened. I was holding the reins on all of
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: the monsters that are out there. They were on me,
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: and now that you've taken me out of the equation,
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: they're going to be out here running amok because you
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: don't have the knowledge or the power over them that
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: I had. So you guys are about to really really
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: regret the fact that you decided to let me get
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: taken out by straw hat. And when he says this,
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: not only does suwerus say, so you really believe all
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: this bullshit? She also is just like you lost get
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: over it, which I have to say that cracked me
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: up a little bit, just like the suck it up cupcake,
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: you know that kind of vibe. And also we get
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: to look at there's like a slow pan over all
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: of Do Flamingo's restraints because he's chained up, and there's
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: like a I found it kind of funny. There's chains
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: of like different sizes wrapped around him, as if to
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: really emphasize that, like they went and found all the
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: chains they could find. They went and just like emptied
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: out the chain warehouse and were like all of them
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: wrap this man in all of the things that we've got.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: So that aspect of it, because you know, I'm just
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: assuming that at some point he's either going to escape
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: or somebody will break him out, or he will you know,
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: he's gonna get put back in power maybe, but yeah,
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: he's pulling at his restraints really hard enough that a
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: bunch of the Marines are come running to help Tzuru
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: and they all have their guns out and everything, and
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: Dol Flamingo says, I want you to send a message
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: to the celestial dragons in Mariegeois. Tell me they will
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: be dragged from their gilded halls. It's been twenty five
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: years since gold Roger conquered the Grand Line, and no
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: one's done it. Since his rival white Beard stood before
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: the throne but met his end having never sat upon it.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: So what happens now? Do you think there are more
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: pirates running wild out there than ever before? But there's
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: just one empty seat? You get it now? And I
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: think that, like this is kind of what Lufy's friends
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: were trying to make happen for him to give him
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: that seat, and Lufy just doesn't really want it. Now.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: I would argue, maybe if you want to be King
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: of the Pirates, you have to take it whether you
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: like it or not. But I, like I said, I
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: do think I understand where Lufi is coming from in
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: not equating these things to each other, and I think
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: he's ultimately right, And I am glad that he isn't
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: going because it's the kind of a shortcut, you know,
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: in a way. And as he's saying like all of this,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: Suru isn't arguing. It seems like she knows he's right
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: at least about some of this, but she just doesn't
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: want to give him the satisfaction of, Yeah, if we
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: had just done what you said and sided with you,
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: everything would be fine, right. So I'm just going to
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: jump to the end of the episode because I already
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: talked about them getting introduced to Bartolomeo's ship and just
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: talk really quickly about Bartolomeo having all of their autographs
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: and their wanted posters framed, and it's like the new
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: wanted posters, by the way, it's not the old ones.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: So he went and found updated ones and got them
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: framed and is presenting each of them with their new bounties.
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: Lufy's at five hundred million berries, so he is the highest. Frankie, wait, no,
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: who's Robin? Zoro's three hundred and twenty million. The picture
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: they have of Zoro is very funny too. He's just
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: got this expression like somebody's spit in his face. Robin
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: is one hundred and thirty million, Frankie is ninety four million,
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: and how much is sorry, I'm trying to find the
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: spot where they because Oosups is like wildly higher than
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: two hundred million, that's right, and he's like really upset
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: because of the picture that they're using, but also the
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: high height of the bounty is very complimentary. Frankie himself
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: is very annoyed because he doesn't think us Up deserves
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: to have a higher back teeth than him, and he
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: is correct. Sangie's is one hundred and seventy seven million berries,
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: and they actually have a proper photo of him this time,
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: but he still looks like an idiot because he's got
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: his heart eyes thing going on. And then Nanny is
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: at sixty six million, but she posed for hers, which
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: she's got her hair up in this like sexy but
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: very very fun. And then once again Chopper eating cotton
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: candy with a total of one hundred berries, which is
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: the most insulting shit puts some respect on my boy's name.
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: I am disgusted. I hate it so much. And then
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: soul King Brook eighty three million berries, and they use
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: a poster from his tour. I have to mention it's
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: very poorly designed because it says dead or alive, but
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: the ore is squeezed in after dead, and it's just
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: like it's not it's not well designed, That's all I'm saying.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: But yeah, so we get like a sort of reset
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: of everybody figuring out like what place they hold in
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: the world government size. And then we have the last
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: scene of the episode, which is a dude who honestly
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: in profile, looks almost identical to do Flamingo, but obviously isn't,
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: and he's got almost what looks to be like a
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: bunch of dice in his hand. He eats something and
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: then he begins to sort of like steam and turn red.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: It's giving like when Lufy does third gear and there's
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: a guy standing out in front of him, I'm assuming
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: who is like one of his guards. And it was
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: so weird because this guy is standing in a very
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: bow legged, hunched fashion, and that for a moment made
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: me think that he was like nailed to a post
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: behind him and was dead. But I think he's just
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: got rocket launchers on his back. I don't know what's
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: going on with either of these guys, and we don't
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: get any explanation. We just see them and then end
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: of episode. So yeah, I uh oh, oh, yes, thank you.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: Florian points out Sanji's poster also says only alive, not
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: dead or alive like everybody else's does, which they find
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: a little puzzling. And I also, I don't have any
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: theories about that, to be honest, I don't think I
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: like it, but I don't have theories. But yeah, so
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: that is the end of this arc. I'm guessing like
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: this is it, and I enjoyed it overall. It went
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: on too long for sure. There were definitely a lot
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: of things that I was crazy about, but like for
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: the most part, I actually really liked this one, so
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: I had a good time looking forward to seeing where
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: we go next. So thank you guys so much for listening,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Thank you Florian for hanging out today, and appreciate you
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: being here and again working with me when I had
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: to change the date. I hope you guys are enjoying
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: the coverage and until next time to Loo motherfuckers. That
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: was an unspoiled Network podcast.
