  Speaker 1: This is an unspoiled network podcast. This is spoil Me,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: covering one piece episodes eight fifty three through eight fifty five.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: The Green Room, an invincible helmsman Jimbee, the Threat of
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the Mole, Loofy's silent fight, the end of the Deadly Battle.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Category is awakening in anger. In these episodes, Lufy is
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: just continuing to do his thing as he does. Meanwhile,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: it's possible that our friends are going to get away
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: on the sunny maybe maybe hmmm. Welcome to spoil Me,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: of Welcome to the show everyone. I am Natasha. Thank
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode. Sorry
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: if Florin is talking, we were talking about working on
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the night shift at a hotel earlier, so there's a comment
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: here about that. Yeah, So I was like, this was
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: a section where I really wanted to watch the next one.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: I this is a tough grouping of episodes because we're
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: in that that phase where Lufy is just having this long,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: drawn out, repetitive fight with somebody that we will get
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: into sometimes. And the one thing that I will say
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: is that just does I really personally started to be like, Okay,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I think I'm starting to get bored with this. Kategory
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: like within a minute of me thinking those words to myself,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Category goes, all right, I'm tired of seeing you doing
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: this over and over. And I was just like, ah, okay,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: we're both on the same page. And Kategory does this thing.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: It's a for those who have not seen uh Austin
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Powers International Man of Mystery, there is an amazing moment
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: where doctor Evil like sets this trap to kill Austin
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Powers and he begins to leave the broom and his
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: son is like, you're not even gonna stay and watch
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: him die and he's like, no, I'm just going to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: leave and assume everything went to plan what? And this
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: is very much giving that for me. Kategory is like, yeah,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: you'll suffocate, it's inevitable. I have seen you consistently live
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: through shit that should have killed you. But I'm still
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: not real worried about it. So by and I was
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: just like, Category, come now he survives this. That's on you. Actually,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I won't even give loofy points. I will simply take
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: points away from you. That's how I'm going to be
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: doing that math. But I get ahead of myself as
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I do. Let's talk about the green room. This is
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: so odd. So the way that this is structured is
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: sort of what's strange to me. We open with Loofy
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: trying to get through so to speak to Nami on
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the Sonny attempting to explain to her that you need
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: to break all of the mirrors on board, and she
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: understandably is just it's like, bro, then how are you
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: supposed to get back with us? That's the whole way
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: that this was supposed to work. And he is a
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: very insistent like, no, seriously, you gotta And it turns
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: out that there is already a fire in one of
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the rooms, so like what they have nearly succeeded in
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: their mission here to really fuck things up for everybody
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: on the ship. But eventually Nami begins to do as
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Lufy says, but there is a little bit of like
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: argument back and forth. It's quite handy that despite the
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: fact he can't travel through the mirrors, it only takes
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: a little bit of mirror to be able to at
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: least talk to each other. I like that, and I
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: still am, like I've been trying to think about how
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Lufy can possibly me up with them again after they've
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: gone so, because you know, I'm trying to think back,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: and I'm sure that this has happened, But who was
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: with Loofy at Marine Ford? What I'm what I'm getting
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: at here is I don't remember many times where Loofy
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: was like completely separated from the entire rest of his crew,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: except for like that two years where they were training
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: and I think Marine Ford and impelled down was but
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: he was with one other person, right, I don't remember,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Florian says JIMBEI was the only one and well Ivan, Okay,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: so it wasn't any of the straw hats that was
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: completely just like only Loofy, you know, straws and then
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: impelled down? Was it just mister, No, it was fucking
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a buggy, right, what a weird that was fun. It's
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: just like a kind of a rare thing. Loofy breaks
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: off on his own a lot for fights, but it's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: not usual that he's like the only person in the
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: in the on the island. I guess, for lack of
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: a better way of saying it, you know, let's see,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: he was alone for Amazon Lily impelled down Marine Ford
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: and then the time skip Amazon Lily. I forgot about
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: that one, okay, Yeah, so it's not like a super
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: frequent thing. It's happened before, but it's not often. And
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: like with Amazon Lily, I'm trying to remember exactly how
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: some of this went down. Didn't he get like thrown
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: by somebody? What happened? And how do you wind up
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: on Amazon Lily. I remember it being an accident because
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: he like lands in a tree. Right, how did that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: all work? Impel down? It was simply like I feel
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: being separated from everybody. So they're still there with him,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: but they're not in the same area, right, And then
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Marine Ford he purposely breaks off on his own for
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: that one. If I'm not mistaken, Kuma flung all of
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: them away the Bible guy, that's right. I forgot that
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: he did that, And so everybody is separated for a
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: little while there. Yeah, I feel like I don't want
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: to count that one then, because everyone is separated from
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: each other. It's just you know, the whole crew being
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: on the ship and leaving and him not being on.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: It just has like a really specific kind of energy
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: that feels like it's more of a crisis to me,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like it I just I
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: won't say that it makes me panic because it's not
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: exactly it, but it does have me worried because there
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: are plenty of times where I'm like, our friends are coming,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you know, they haven't reached him yet, they're on their way,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: or everybody's trying to find each other or whatever. But
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: this is everybody fleeing and trying to get away as
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: fast as they can. So the fact that Lufy is
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: here alone and has smashed his way back and then
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: asks Nami to smash every other possible way back is
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: really leaving me going, what the fuck is he gonna do?
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Like I suppose you could try to
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: repair a mirror. You could attempt to buy a mirror somewhere.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Maybe that would work. Once you're sure they're not like
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: after you anymore. Maybe you could buy one and put
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: it on the ship and boom, now you're done. I
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: guess that's possible. Sorry, Florian says, you wanted to see
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: more of Nammy and Chopper and action, be careful what
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you wish for, Touche touche, sir. So anyway, the whole
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: setup here is like, there's a moment, guys, and I
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: know I said that I was gonna like back up
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: and start at the beginning, and I basically did do that,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: so I guess technically I checked that box off, So
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: don't yell at me. But there is a point later
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: where he's talking to Nami, and like I said last
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: time that he was getting his ass kicked, I had
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: no idea. It is way worse. In these three episodes,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: bro is being fucking pulverized. It's difficult to watch. I'm
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: not gonna it's really There comes a point where he
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: begins dodging, and that's fun because Category is like, you know,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I gotta say, nobody has ever dodged me as consistently
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: as you have been, And frankly, it's infuriating. And I'm
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: getting worn out by this because Lufy says he's wearing
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: me out and Category is like same, and Luviy is
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: like startled by that. He doesn't expect Category to confess
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: anything like this. So like, there does eventually come a
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: point where he is managing to at least stay out
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: of the direct line of fire. But the first of
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: these episodes he is getting it's almost the equivalent of
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: held down and like pounded in the face with a jackhammer.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: This dude is going so hard with like the gatling
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: gun style attack and Lufy is just helpless underneath this
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: dude's onslaught. I guess this is the way I want
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to say it. And at one point Nami is trying
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: to talk to him because he's clung to this single
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: piece of mirror and is like, you've got this right,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Lufy loofy, and like he isn't able to answer her,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: and she's starting to worry. And then just as she's going, hey, man,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: are you then Category smashes that piece of mirror and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: their connection with Lufy is gone. And it was a
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: really like sobering moment because at least there being the
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: connection between the two of them for that moment felt
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: like he has a friend. He's not alone, you know,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: even though he is physically and now our friends are
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: on the ship completely like I'm sure of what's happening
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: with him, knowing that it was bad enough that he
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: literally like couldn't lift his head to talk back to us. Yikes,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: that is very very worrying. So I well, we haven't
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: gotten there yet. With the straw hats on the ship, first,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: we are watching Big Moms. She's walking on this like
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: pad of candy that has been made for her so
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: that she can essentially walk on water. There are cannonballs
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: firing from behind her. Of course, the cannonballs all have
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: like faces on them because they're alive. And now the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: candy that she is standing on is also alive. I
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: want him in that. So it's a different vibe than
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: it was in the last section. And something begins to
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: happen here. This is so weird, guys. The cannonball's like
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: cackling on the way in truly is funny. Chopper does
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: guard point, and it doesn't make a lot of sense
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that these all would have landed in the exact area
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: that Chopper occupies when the ship is this big. But
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: that's okay. We have Brooke leaping in the air and
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: slicing a bunch of them in half, and then there's
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: this moment where he starts screaming because one is coming
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: straight for his face, and it's always confusing when it's
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: this like cartoon logic. He has plenty of time to
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: slice that one in half to and he acts like
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: he doesn't, and the cannonball, like Brooks, starts screaming, and
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the cannonball also starts screaming, which I was just like,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: what isn't this your job? But yeah, so this thing
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: that Big Mom is walking on, this piece of candy
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: is like I said, it has a face on it.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: And there comes a point where our friends look up
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and there's just this huge title wave. It's sort of
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: out of nowhere. I'll be real. I rewound. I actually
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: rewound a couple times. I'm sorry about my dog, guys.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I oh my god, I'm so sorry. Floriene's in the
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: chat and says the canniball was scared because Brooke is
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: just a skull. Oh my god. That didn't even occur
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: to me. Okay, that's a pretty good joke. That's pretty funny.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I like that. I like that. I wish I got
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: that at the moment, I did not get it. But yeah,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: this title wave, it's unclear to me how this comes
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: to be. I don't know if it's supposed to be
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: that simply the act of walking on the water and
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: all of the pressure of like the candy and Big
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Mom's weight, if this is like, created the wave, but
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: there really wasn't anything leading up to it to indicate
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: that the wave was beginning to form that I saw.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It's just sort of it goes from the cannonball attacks
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: to Lufy telling Nami to break all the mirrors, and
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: they do that, and then they look up and it's
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: a huge tidal wave that is like so close. They
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: have all given up any hope that they're going to
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: be able to escape. It's just going to crush them.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: There's no way around it, or is there. But yeah,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I feel like there's something missing in the storytelling here.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if I missed it, but like
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: I said, I rewound, so I felt like, if I
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: missed it, it was further back then I think it
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: should be. I don't know. Florian says, yeah, it comes
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: kind of out of nowhere. Mom gave the water a
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: soul and thus can command it, but they don't show
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: that also not in the manga. I think, yeah, okay,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I see it's sort of because like the fact that
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: when they look up, the wave is like purplish, and
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I thought that it was candy at first. I thought
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: that basically Big Mom turned the candy that she had
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: been walking on into a sort of wave that was
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: solid and made of candy, and like it wasn't there
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: was no war in it, that it was pure. It
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: was mimicking the behavior of water because of this guy's
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: control over it. But I did not think because of
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: its color that it was water. And maybe it's supposed
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to be that the candy is like mixed in there.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know. But there was just a lot about
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: how sudden it is and the color it is and
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: the way that it just came out that I found
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: really confusing and weird, and I think they could have
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: spent a little bit more time establishing what was going
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: on there, especially considering how this section does feel like
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: we're repeating things a lot, they're needing to like fill time.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I think that could have been a pretty solid time filler,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: just showing us exactly how this wave was coming to
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: be and thus creating more attension and more dread with
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: it because you don't have time to even really to this.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: It just appears, you know. Oh, Florian says, the color
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: is juice in this sea. Right. It's confusing because we
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: don't see that in the like in the water as
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: we're sailing. It's just in this wave. So the rest
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: of the water looks blue like, ah, I don't know,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: it's fine. So anyway, what happens there's like it's it's
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: really strange the way that this is done to me
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: here as well. So everybody is looking up at this
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: wave and Nami just says something to Lufy like, I
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: think this might be it for us. She is like
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: this last scrap of mirror that she's looking through because
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: they are still in communication at this point. The whole
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: thing where they get cut off doesn't happen till later,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: and everybody has tears in their eyes and they're all
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: thinks like this is it. And then we have off
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: to the side solely Jimbei, who is says if that
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: hits us, we're all dead. And then a few minutes
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: later says something like unless we go in the green
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: room something like that, and I was like, unless we
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: what now? And I should mention too that the guy
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: that's uh that Pero, who is on Mom's shoulder, he
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: is telling her you don't want to smash the ship.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: They have your cake. If you do that, you smash
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: the cake too, which I was genuinely a little surprised
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: that he tries to keep her from doing this, I
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: guess because I was thinking like, oh, he'll be glad
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: that she's smashing the straw hats. But then I was like,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: that makes sense, then she'll just stay in her hunger pangs.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: But they don't actually have the cake, so I guess
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: if she doesn't have the straw hats to direct her
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: anger toward, then it will sort of just be chaos again.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: And having them as the scapegoat is just very convenient
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: for keeping the pressure off of everybody else for right now. Sorry,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I'm just looking at the part now where JIMBEI like
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: closes his eyes. There's this long pause as the camera
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: sort of swings around him and it's not clear, Like
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: he just says, everyone listen and big mom, just I'm
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: ready for my cake. Now. I'm like, bitch, where do
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: you think this cake is at? All of these like
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: droplets of water come flying down, and just the drops
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: of water are so big that they are making the
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: sunny nearly tip over on their own. We see all
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: of the the the crewmates hard at work doing something
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: as Jim Bay says like, okay, yeah, that's good enough,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: and Brooke is like, you're steering the ship and moving
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: the sails by hand? Are you serious? And he tells
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Nami to let him know what the wind is doing
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: and then says, all right, and we see him pulling down.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Brooke almost falls off. He does fall off my bed,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: and he says, I'm tacking straight into the wind. And
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: they're like, that means that we'll go straight into the wave,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: doesn't it. And he says not if we can get
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: inside the green room. And he doesn't explain to them
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: what this is. There's no time, there's no time. But
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: then when we actually see them in there, what it
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: turns it's almost like doing like the eye of the storm,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: the eye of the hurricane. You know, it's the center
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: of the tube that a giant wave makes. It's almost
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: like we're surfing but with a ship, because the wave
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: is that enormous. And he says something about how like
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: all of the fishmen, especially young ones, really really love
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: like playing around with the green room, because of course
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: they would. It's like a really cool phenomenon and it's
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: got to be very like thrilling, and there has to
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: be some skill involved there for like getting there. I
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: really liked this as an idea, and it's like, look,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be an asshole, but it is
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: the first time that I've been like, oh, okay, Jimbay, I
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: see your value now because I really I want to
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: like Jimbay. I don't know that I have made that
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: clear because I have done nothing but complain about how
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: we didn't need him and he's boring. So and I
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: stand by all of that to be clear, I'm not
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: taking anything of that back. But he definitely has a
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: skill here that I didn't anticipate. And I think weirdly,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I thought that he wouldn't necessarily be like skilled with
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: a ship because he doesn't need a ship. He's a
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: fish man. So I think that I was sort of
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: assuming that a ship was like, you know, something that
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: would be it would be so unnecessary for him that
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: why would he bother? It would be like somebody who
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: is completely able bodied being an expert at building wheelchairs,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? But fishmen are on
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: ships like kind of a lot. Actually, the more I
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: stop and think about it and using the sales and whatnot,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: is sort of like Finns. I mean, some of the
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: principles are the same. It's just a really nice moment
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: of like Jim Bate has a very very specific skill
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: set that will be super helpful because like, let's be
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: extremely honest here when it comes to sailing. As much
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: as we haven't run into a lot of problems with
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: sailing specifically, nobody on our crew is like particularly a sailor.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: You know it never I like when I stop and
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: think about anybody who is specialized in that the the
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: only one that really can work is Franky because he
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: is the mechanic. But it's that's not really the same thing.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: So having Nami be the only person that was like
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: kind of the brains of the operation, all of the
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: pressure was on her all the time as the one
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: managing where they're going and how to determine where they're going.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I'm beginning to appreciate that the addition of Jimbei takes
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: a little bit of that pressure off her, and it
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: gives her a partner to rely on who is competent
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: and who can manage to fucking get serious a little
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: bit more often than a lot of our other crewmates.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: So I lament his seriousness because I find it boring,
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: But in practice I have been frustrated in the past
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: by the fact that she's the only one that seems
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: to like, really have any connection to consequences in the
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: world around them. And maybe this is exactly what we needed.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Maybe Jimbay is like the adult force that was missing,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: you know, and brings that. He brings that dad energy.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: I've said before that Zoro brought the dad energy, but
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: he brings it the dad energy in terms of like
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: the dad that sucks, the dad that shows up, but
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: he's like tired and uninvolved and he just kind of
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: like if something fun is happening, he'll tune in, but
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: if not, he like goes back to napping on the couch.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Jimbay is the dad energy of like the dad we
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: want who's engaged and on top of things and watching
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: and just overall it feels like has the situation in hand.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: So you know what. Okay, Okay, Jimbay. I think I'm
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: all right with you now. And I have one of
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: his little posters as a pin down there, and when
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I opened it, I was all like, ough, come on really,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: And now I'm like, maybe I'll maybe I'll grow to
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: like you. Sarahm says green room is an actual surfing
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: term for this, So yeah, okay, I didn't know that.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Florian says, people say Jimbay gives grandpa. Yeah, okay, I
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: see that he's not cranky enough. When I think Grandpa vibes.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I definitely think somebody who's like older and more crotchety,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: But you know, I can dig it, I can see that.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: So anyway, what happens here is interesting because the fact
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: that they go into this green room means that there's
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: a weird effect through the mirror that Lufy still has
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: where he's looking, and it seems like they're underwater. And
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: everybody sort of goes back and forth on this throughout
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: the next episodes, because there are plenty of folks who
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: are just assuming they went under that huge wave they
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: have to be dead, and then there are other people
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: who have like a more detailed look at things, and
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: they're using the clues therein to come up with a
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: different answer. So I'm so sorry. I just got to
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: the spot where Chopper looks up in like once they
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: enter the green room and he says, are we in heaven?
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: It's beautiful? But yeah, Jimbay is saying that this is
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: a damn fine ship, so evidently being able to manage
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: it inside of the wave is really like, this is
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: a testament to how well the ship is constructed. Okay, look, Florian,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to argue with you the color of
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: the sea is from the juice. Okay, but then this
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be the green Room, should it. This should be
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: pink or purple. I even take like an orange, like
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: a dark orange. But we saw this wave and it's purple,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: and then once they're in it, all of a sudden,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: now it's blue green. No no, no, no, no, I
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: don't think so show you got to pick one. They
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: want to do the green Room because that's like the name,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: and so they want to do that, but then they
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: also want to have the wave be purple. Hmm, okay,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: sure it does not matter, like I said, And frankly,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: it looks cool with it being green like this overlay
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: that they have on the animation. But I just don't
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: think that they needed to make that wave purple at all,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: because that confused the whole issue on a number of
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: different levels. There was just no reason. So the uh loofy,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: like first, Perro, who is on Mom's shoulder, is like,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: all right, if they went into that, they are definitely dead.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: They are taking care of don't have to worry about
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: them anymore, and he is sort of feeling himself. He
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: thinks I managed to get rid of them and isn't
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: at this point worrying about what it means that Mom
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: still wants her cake. Loofy is seeing into the uh
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: the glass and is like, hey, guys, answer me, but
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: there's nothing happening here, and Bruley says, well, shoot, guess
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: we're not invading after all since the ship sank. But
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: the long Necks have a different mirror and they're like,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that. We're looking at a different
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: spot and it doesn't look like the ship is underwater
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: at all, and Brulay is like, oh, okay, well, I
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: guess shoot one more round into there, just to be safe.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: And just as she says that, Nami is taking care
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: of that mirror and breaks it, and I do love
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Brulay going, ugh, why does this have to be so complicated? Ah?
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I did think that was funny. I have a question
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: NAMMY's climate tack thing the cloud ate the end off.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Does that mean that it no longer does the thing
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: that it's supposed to do or is that something that
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: can be fixed by her? How does that work? I
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: saw it at the time as something that was like
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: a temporary problem, but it looks like maybe it's something
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: that is going to be an issue is more ongoing.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know, So let's see. Uh oh right, this
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: is when because Chopper is still with Brulet and everybody,
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: they're being very like, what's the word, I want? Permissive
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: with him. They're really letting him chit chat with his
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: friends and you know, like have a bit of a
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: breather where he's not getting beat up on. It's surprising.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: He gets up and runs away and they're just like, hey,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: somebody stop him, and Lufy is talking to Chopper through
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: the mirror as he's running. Chopper is explaining, Jimbay bailed
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: us out. I wish you could have seen it. And
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: what we find out later is because of how things
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: work with Brulai and her ability, she is actually like
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: hearing everything they're talking about. So there comes a point
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: where Lufy makes a plan with Nami about where they're
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: going to meet up. I think it's Cacao Island, and
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: they think this is going to be a secret rendezvous
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: because they don't realize that Brulee is overhearing everything. So
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: somebody is definitely aware that the ship hasn't sunk and
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: what all the plan is and everything. So let's see
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: trying to hear. Yeah, this is the point because Lufi is,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: like I said, running this whole time as they're making
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: this plan, and then all of a sudden, here comes
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: the mochi and we get a fresh back to a
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: moment with I swear to god, you guys, I almost
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: said dual lingo just now, Oh my god, Do Flamingo.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: I almost said dual lingo. Oh boy, somebody please illustrate
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: the dual lingo owl with Doe Flamingo's sunglasses on it.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: That's got to already be out there, right. Somebody did that.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Definitely somebody did that. So oh Seraphim says he didn't
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: eat the end. He just grabbed on and sucked the
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: clouds out like a straw. Oh, Florian says, it was
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: more like a lollipop. So but if you eat a lollipop,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: it's gone. So will it get the clouds back? Can
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: it make clouds itself? How long does that take? I
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: don't really understand her weapon very well, to be honest anyway.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: But so this flashback to Do Flamingo is when he
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: talks about how his devil fruit power. I think the
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: term that he uses is awakened something like that, And
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: essentially what he can do is turn things into strings.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Like if he concentrates and dials things up a notch,
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: he can like essentially change the matter around him. And
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I had totally forgotten about this. So category is making
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: the floor into mochi and I. You know, we've never
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: seen Lufy be able to make floors into rubber. He
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: has not reached this level. I cannot help but think
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: about the implications though. If he were able to make
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: the floor into rubber, how useful could that potentially be.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: It depends what kind of fine control you have as well,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: because if you make it into rubber in a certain way,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: it could be advantageous to your enemy as well. But
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: if you have enough control over it that you just
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: make the floor under yourself rubber so that you have
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: like a lot of extra height when you jump, maybe
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: that would be a real like game changer. You know.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you reach this point. I don't like.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: My assumption is that it has something to do with
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: hockey and like managing to combine your hockey into your
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: devil fruit power, But I don't really know that that's anything,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: but yeah, suffice to say, this is the start of
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Lufy getting absolutely smashed. He gets grabbed by the mochi
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: dragged to the ground. This is when Nami is yelling, hey,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: did you hear the plan? Do you did? You? You know?
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Did you get it? Get this? Lufy is trying to
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: struggle up. Kategory is coming at him with all of
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: the speed of frozen molasses, and this is when she says,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: you got this right, And then the mirror shard smashes
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: and we see Kategori has kicked Loofy and it is you, guys.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Loofy makes a sort of trumpet out of his mouth
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: and blows so that he in mid air flies away
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: from Kategory. That's what that is, right. I don't know
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: that we've ever seen this before. It's really weird, but yeah, anyway,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: you know, they're still on the sunny like, is he okay?
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: Can you hear anything? And Loofy can hear Brooke's voice,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: so he is still trying to find a different piece
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: of mirror. Category jumps up into the air and he
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: smashes down on Loofy with his foot and it's like
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: one of the giant feet with hockey that's like big
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: and weirdly rounded because he's using that other ability it's
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: a lot. And I there's a point in the last
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: group of episodes that I had meant to mention and
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I forgot that. I actually did think, you know, the
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: thing about a lot of the baddies in one Piece
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: is that their speeches, their little monologues, can be really interchangeable.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: A lot of them don't have a lot of personality,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: or that that personality isn't really that distinctive. When you
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: step back and look at all of the other villains,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: it will be like really similar. And I this was
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: a line that I actually found like to be a
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: little bit intimidating. And it's category just saying there is
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: no victory in your future because his ability. This is
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: not a metaphor. This is not him stunting on loofy.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: This is him looking into the future and being like, bro,
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: this doesn't work out for you though. And there was
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: something about that that I found genuinely like, show I
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: don't like that at all. It just seemed very matter
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: of fact. It wasn't him trying to boast or intimidate
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: or anything like that. It was him just stating like
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: this is going one way and that's it, you know,
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: So anyway, this is the point where he is like
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: jackhammering with his feet into Loofy's back and we can
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: hear everybody from the sunny being like, Loofy, you've gone
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: really quiet? Is everything okay? And there's blood pouring out
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: of his mouth. The camera pulls back and we see
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: another one of categories feet raising up and it smashes
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Loofy so deeply that there's like a crater around him,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: and he is he's passed out here in a way
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: that's like I kind of thought maybe it's gonna be
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: a minute before he can get up. He gets up
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: pretty quick here, but it's bad, and he's got a
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: few teeny little bits of mirror underneath him. And then
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: he just starts laughing, and I'm like what, And he says,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: get to that island as fast as you can. I'll
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: wrap this up in no time. And all of the
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: straw hats are like all right, cool, yay, and he says, okay,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: see you soon. That was just faking it, right, that's
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: him hearing that his friends are worried and just being like,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: I've got to keep appearances up right. The laugh was
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: we And that's why I say that he has like
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: a uh the animation is interesting. Every now and then,
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: when somebody is being really foolish, their noses will be
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: animated as like wider and more detailed than they normally are,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: and it's sometimes meant to indicate that they're drunk or
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: horny whatever. And so I was interpreting the weird uh
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: nose thing as him pretending to be cheerful for them.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Is that what you guys also think? Florian says, yes,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: keep it, trying to keep a joyful face for them. Okay, cool.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: So he turns around category pulls out this weapon, this
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: thing we need to talk about this. So it looks
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: like a spear, but it has three points. It's got
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: like a diamond in the center, and then it's sort
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: of like another diamond that's been sliced down the middle
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: and split to be to go on either side of
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: the center. Diamond. Almost trident looking, but like, in my opinion,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: much scarier looking than a trident. There's something about it
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: that just gives that it's sharp in a way that
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: a trident looks much more like a brute force kind
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: of instrument. This thing looks like razors, you know what
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. Now, this is the mole. What is up
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: with this name? Guys? What is this? Why is it
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: called that? I'm real curious about this because like that's
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: that's not an intimidating name at all. Uh, Florian says,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I think in German the weapon is called the prezl.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: Is that is is prezzle like a separate word or
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: is that just a typo and its pretzel? Seraphim says, no,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: you're thinking of one of Cracker's weapons. Oh okay, I
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: just don't understand its name because like it's just of course,
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: first thing I think of is like a mole on
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: your face, you know, like a skin marking, And then
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: I think of the animal, which is a notoriously weak
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: and often blind rodent, which is also not intimidating. So
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: the mole being the name of this really intimidating looking
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: weapon is range. It just doesn't work. I feel like
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: there's gotta be something that we could have done with
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: the translation to make this not be called that. But
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Seraphim says, this is called mogara, which is just Japanese
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: for mole, the animal. The implication is meant to be
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: he is it's good at drilling holes in people? I
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: guess I don't know, man, When you first think of
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: a mole, I'm thinking about like digging holes. Sure, but
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: that's not really the same as drilling holes. Like if
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do drilling, I would do like a woodpecker
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: or termite carpentrant. I don't know. I feel like there's
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: got to be other things that are better for this,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: or you could, you know, just call it the drill,
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: which wouldn't be that intimidating either, but it's certainly light
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: years better than the mole. I don't know, man, I
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: think this is there are some names in this show
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: that will strike me as really not great, and then
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: they grow on me over time and I start to
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: be like, actually, okay, that's fine, but this is one
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: where I feel like it's just genuinely was a bad pick.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: This is not I don't anticipate I'm going to grow
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: to like the name of this thing anymore than I do.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: But anyway, we will get to what's going on with
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: that in a moment. First we go over to Mont
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: d'Or and the Eggman, who is now the Chicken Man.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: Now Mont d'Or is drawing a little picture of Big
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: Mom on the back of this like candy thing. It's
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: actually it's weirdly cute that he is just rooting for
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: her so hard that even in his like downtime, he's like, hey,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: look I made a little big mom. You know, there's
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: something about this my husband's rewatching succession, and there is
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: something about this that's like kind of giving the way
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: that the kids worship their dad in that even though
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: he's just a monster. Florian says, remember Tequila Wolf excellent
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: A great name for a place. Yeah, that was a
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: good one. Impelled down. I remember thinking like what, and
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: you know, I really did get to a point where
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: I was like, no, that's cool. Seraphim says, it's a
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: Japanese thing. See also the Pokemon Exca drill or the
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Mulgara mech from Godzilla. They just have an association between
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: moles and drilling. Yeah, I suppose I understand also wanting
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: to keep things as accurate as possible. So with the translation,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: they said mole because they meant mole in Japanese. That's
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: what they meant, and so we're gonna say what they meant.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: But there is a part of me that's like, we
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: really should have judged it up a little bit. I
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: don't know, but anyway, egg Man, rooster Man is, Uh.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: There's a conversation between him and montdor that is actually
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: kind of interesting because Montdor is fully like, we will
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: deal with the straw Hats, no problem, and rooster Man
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: is like, look, I don't want to like discount what
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: you're saying. I don't want to discourage you, and I
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: don't want to give them like the respect of saying
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: that they're really someone we need to worry about. But
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: I will point out so many people have underestimate straw
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: Hat and they have come out on top every time,
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: and I just think there's a lesson in that. And
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: montdor is like, what do you mean, And he's like, well,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: they got on their ship, they're fucking gone, and look
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: what they did at the wedding and montd Door's like
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: that was all an accident, and he's like was it.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, man, something about this is really looking
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: actually a little impressive, and maybe we shouldn't be like
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: hand waving them, That's all I'm saying. And I really
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: really liked this conversation because you guys know how frequently
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: I feel like everybody just immediately is not worried about
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: beating Lofy, even though he has this reputation that precedes him.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: It's like they are all impressed with that reputation for
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: or a split second and then immediately discard it and go,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: but I'll beat him, which sometimes that rings us true,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: and sometimes I'm just like, hold on, what? So I
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: really did like this argument between the two of them
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: where one of them is sort of like, you know, ah,
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: there may be something to this kid, actually to these
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: guys in general, So I'm so sorry. Florine in the
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: chat says, well, they meet him and then they discard it,
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: which might be fair. You do have a point, Florian.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: You meet somebody like Loofy and then immediately go, Okay,
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: that reputation was not earned. Obviously something something went real
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: wrong somewhere. But I will say, though, when he when
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: this has happened as consistently as it seems to have
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: done with him, it is time to start like looking
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: at facts, everybody, please. And we have then a departure
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: for a bit where we go to the German Kingdom
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: and we get to see how that battle is going.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: And this bro who's been shooting fireballs out of his
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: like weird sleeves. This dude is so bizarre. He looks
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: like the heat miser. I feel like I said that before,
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: But he pulls down the sort of cowl neck and
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: breathes out fire in this huge plume, and for a second,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: dude he's fighting looks like kind of flipped out. But
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: this does not last long. There's a whole thing later on,
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: and I'm running out of time here, so I'm going
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: to speed through some of this. But I feel like
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I really talked about the most important things pretty thoroughly
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: so far. But there comes a point in the third
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: episode of the three where that weird giant guy shows
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: up and his voice is crazy, but he is also
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: fighting the German Kingdom guys, and it's really feeling like
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: he's taking his victory too much for granted. And it
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: cuts to mont Door getting a call on a transponder
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: snail and the voice sounds like this guy. But I
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: was like, there's no way. I just immediately thought to myself,
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: all right, one of Sanji's brothers is really good at
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: imitating voices. I'm not buying it. There's just no way.
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: I do not see it. And indeed it takes a minute,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: but the camera goes back to the German Kingdom and
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: pans around and it's them standing on the corpses of
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: all of their enemies and and laughing as they tell
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: montdor oh, it's all taken care of and we totally
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: took down the German Kingdom. No problem, It's fine, and
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: I am really They end it with like talking about
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: what's going on with Lufy and his friends, and this
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: dude being like, well, it's kind of a mess. Here's
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: what's going on, and the brother says something like I
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: leave that in your capable hands, and he's like, thanks,
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: all right, we'll talk to you later. And I was
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, this is so hard to watch. He's
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: like getting encouragement from the enemy who just lied about
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: the fact that they won, and is telling them all
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: about how fucked up they've been so far with letting
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: Lufy and friends get away, Like that is just so
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: embarrassing on such a variety of levels. So anyway, German
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: Kingdom is pleased to hear that Lufy got away, and
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: we then cut there's a beget is back in the
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: mix over here, and he is fighting with Custard, who
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: is firing cannonballs at them. It's look, everybody's working with cannonballs.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like the cannonballs being sentient makes them
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: better because they still miss completely. But I will say
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: that it's a lot less bizaz when you are shooting
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: cannonballs back and they don't have faces that cackle. I
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: just feel like it's a bit of a downgrade, you know.
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: So anyway, there's all this smoke and Custard like there's
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: something that happens that damages one of their ships, and
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: Bejie's like, all right, let's get out of here while
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: they're distracted, and it's like two seconds, but when the
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: camera lifts up again, the ship is like a mile out.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: It is really fast. They get away like it's crazy.
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: So yeah, Custard is like, they won't be able to
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: run away from us. I don't know, Coustard, it kind
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: of looks like they did. It kind of looks like
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: they managed to fully run away from you and that
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: that's that. But you know, what do I know? And then,
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: like I said, the final moment of the third episode
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: happens with uh Loofy wrapped up in mochi and category
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: saying listen up. From now on, I won't underestimate you.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: He's kind of coming to the same conclusion that rooster
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: Man did. And he lifts a hand and makes a
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: fist and the walls of the mirror War begin to
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: come down, and he says mirror mochi, and Lufy's like,
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: ah crap. When he says ah crap, he says, if
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: these land on me, I'll that'll kill me, and Category
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: just says, yeah, it'll suffocate you, and Lufy's just like,
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: and I don't know. There was just something about how
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: conversational Kategory is about it, and how Lufy's like aware
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: that it'll kill him, but it being said in so
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: many words is still like shocking to him. I don't
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: know why. I just found this kind of funny. So yeah,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: he says, I'm afraid there's no escape from my mochi
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: and all of these there's three like huge chunks of
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: mochi that come down, and he says the finishing touch
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: and he rolls his fingers like this, like when you're
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: making a ball out of a tiny little piece of
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: clay or something and turns it into a cherry and
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: drops it on top I swear, and he says, sorry
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: to kill you in such an indignified manner. But I
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: was getting a bit impatient. You gave me so much
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: trouble and I'm forty minutes late for my afternoon snack.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: I am so sorry, but that is hilarious. I think
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: it's funny because it's Katekori and that's just not you know,
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: like if this were the Rooster Man, him being like,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: I'm forty minutes late for my cup of tea, you know,
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: but Kategory being like, I want my snack and I
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: want it now. Actually I want it forty minutes ago.
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: But what can you do. It's just not what I
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: was thinking was going to be a per personality trait
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: of his, and I really enjoy it. I think it's funny.
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: I like it so uh yeah. He just says, you're suffering,
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: will be over soon. This is goodbye, straw Hat, and
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: he walks away as one of Lufy's hands like reaches
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: out from underneath, and it looks like Lufy is stuck
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: under the mochi. But then when the camera pulls back,
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: it's just his arm that's under it, and we see
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: Lufy's head out of the mochi. It appears he's faking
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: that he has been killed, I guess, or the trapped
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: at least. I'm not sure if it's if I'm supposed
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: to still think he's in danger even seeing the top
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: of his head like that, or if that is supposed
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: to be like, don't worry, guys, he's fine. But I
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: took it as that the second one. But yeah, it's
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: sort of surprising because like the second one feels less
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: likely in terms of personality. I wouldn't think Loofy would
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: be like, let me fake being trapped, trick him. Loofy
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: doesn't really do stuff like that, you know, so, But
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: I don't see how I'm supposed to believe he's going
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: to suffocate when it looks like his whole head is
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: exposed and free and so he won't suffocate. I don't know.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it's just the angle of the
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: animation and it's supposed to look like just the very
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: top of his head, But even so that is so
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: close to him being completely free that it still makes
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: me immediately not worried about it. So I don't know.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I still enjoyed how this all
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: went down, Like, just as I started to get bored,
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: CATEGORY also got bored and so I didn't. It didn't
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: slid into that place where I was like really going,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: oh my god, now because Lufy is okay, it may
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: be that next episode it picks right up where it
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: left off, and I'm going to be like, Okay, now
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: I am officially bored, but I'm going to withhold judgment
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: and see we'll just have to see. All right, everybody, Well,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to wrap this up. Thank you guys again
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: so much for commissioning the episode, for hanging out with
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: me et cetera. And I appreciate you all in the
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: chat giving me info. I really do. It's very helpful.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: So all right, until next time, do tolu, motherfuckers. That
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: was an Unspoiled Network podcast
