  This is an Unspoiled Network podcast. This is spoil Me, covering One Piece
• 0:11
  episodes four eighteen and four nineteen. The crewmates Whereabouts Weather Science and Karakuri Island
• 0:22
  and the crewmates Whereabouts the Island of Giant Birds and the Pink Paradise. In
• 0:31
  these episodes, we really it is a vast variety of wonderful and terrible going
• 0:41
  on in these episodes. Kids, What is what? Welcome to spoil Me.
• 1:10
  Welcome to the show everyone. I am Natasha. Thank you very much
• 1:14
  to Gabriella for commissioning this episode. What's up Gabriella? You guys, I
• 1:19
  just want to like remind all of you that in a few weeks, it's
• 1:23
  going to be in the first or second week of October. Second week of
• 1:29
  October, I am going to be starting the One Piece live action. So
• 1:34
  there's going to be a break in One Piece animated coverage during that time because
• 1:41
  it was a pre booking and that took up a bunch of slots, and
• 1:45
  there was not like I had enough already pre booked that I could not do
• 1:51
  another pre booking of One Piece, so I had to wait until afterward.
• 1:59
  And Sarahim is saying sorry, I missed the last few lives. Oda is
• 2:05
  flexing his character work, introducing a character by literally kicking a kitten, then
• 2:08
  a few episode episodes later, making you want to hug her and tell her
• 2:12
  it'll be okay as you learn her backstory. Yeah, it's such a weird
• 2:15
  thing because I'm like, look, I can, I can sympathize, but
• 2:19
  also that does not excuse you kicking a kick kitten, ma'am. I was
• 2:23
  really hoping that we weren't going to go back to that, but then she
• 2:24
  goes and kicks another kitten again, like very soon after. But yeah,
• 2:30
  this episode mostly deals with where our friends have gone, but we haven't seen
• 2:36
  everybody yet. The first episode is Nami and Frankie. I keep wanting to
• 2:47
  say, Freddy, I don't know where that's coming from. And then the
• 2:51
  second one is Sanji and Chopper, so we still have not seen Robin us
• 3:01
  up Brook or Zoro. And this is sort of interesting because, like,
• 3:13
  due to where Nami and Frankie end up, I was sort of feeling at
• 3:20
  first, like, oh, so they got sent to islands that have something
• 3:24
  to do with what their specialty is and what their interest is, because you
• 3:30
  know, Nami winds up on an island that studies the weather. It's a
• 3:34
  sky island, which is going to be extremely inconvenient, but you know,
• 3:38
  it's just something that she's actually made a weapon out of. And Frankie is
• 3:45
  on mechanics Island, which as a cyborg, is great for him, I
• 3:51
  would think. But neither of them expresses the kind of interest in what's going
• 3:59
  on on those islands the way that I was expecting. I thought they would
• 4:03
  be more like engaged and be like, oh, tell me more about what
• 4:08
  you do here, but they don't ask, really. And then what happens
• 4:13
  with Sanji and Chopper, I don't know what to think about, Like that
• 4:21
  doesn't feel at all related to where they would want to be, Like Sanji's
• 4:26
  feels like it's related to where he would ideally want to be in a sort
• 4:30
  of like inversion of your wish in a monkey's paw sort of sense. But
• 4:39
  with Chopper, I don't see the connection at all at all. So I
• 4:45
  guess I don't know. I guess we'll see. So let's start from the
• 4:49
  beginning here. Thankfully, Sanji is the last of the four, and he's
• 4:55
  the one I want to talk about the least so that works out pretty well
• 4:59
  for me. But we do check in with Lufy at the very beginning of
• 5:04
  both of these episodes. Excuse me, you guys, it's so weird.
• 5:10
  I don't feel sneeze is coming. They just sneak up on me out of
• 5:15
  nowhere. It's always startles me. But the whole thing, like with with
• 5:25
  Boa Hancock, is really funny because she is having this thing where she's imagining
• 5:32
  what Lufy would be like if he were more romantic. I think she's taking
• 5:41
  it for granted that he's interested in her, but like she thinks maybe he's
• 5:46
  playing hard to get or being restrained about it or something. It's unclear to
• 5:51
  me how much she really thinks he is interested and how much she kind of
• 5:58
  knows he isn't, And it is just fantasizing for her own fun. But
• 6:02
  it's the first of these two episodes starts with her with him waking up from
• 6:09
  a dream about seeing all of his friends disappear, and she says, surely
• 6:15
  there's something I can say to raise his spirits, and she kind of looks
• 6:19
  at the ground and then everything becomes a little bit like what's the word I
• 6:25
  want? It's all sort of like dreamy and out of focus, and she
• 6:30
  says something about how you have to trust that your friends can look after themselves
• 6:34
  and have faith in them. Don't worry so much about them. Even though
• 6:40
  you were separated from your crew, you have never been alone. I'm right
• 6:44
  here to comfort you if you need me. And it's a real like I've
• 6:50
  been so foolish, Hancock. All this time I was with an angel and
• 6:56
  had no idea. And it's really funny because, first of all, I
• 7:02
  don't feel like we've seen anybody crushing on Lufy before, so this is all
• 7:06
  real new. Secondly, the way that they're animating the moments are I had
• 7:15
  thought they would take the same sort of tone as when Sanji is fantasizing,
• 7:20
  but it seems much more serious somehow, like they're kind of doing an imitation
• 7:30
  of another type of anime specifically. And I also like guys, when I'm
• 7:36
  I'm watching Lufy sitting on the couch next to Boa Hancock, it really is
• 7:44
  uncomfortable. When she is imagining making advances on him, and she looks like
• 7:49
  she is, you know, thirty, and he looks like he's about thirteen.
• 7:56
  It's just like I know that he is supposed to be like, what
• 8:00
  seventeen or so, so we're still in a kind of like weird area.
• 8:05
  But I think Boa Hancock is only meant to be in her early twenties,
• 8:09
  so it's still sort of but the way that they are both illustrated it is
• 8:16
  really does not look good, That's all I'm saying. So yeah, then
• 8:24
  he's like, we have them in silhouette, and he's they start kissing,
• 8:28
  and she's like holding her face and her cheeks are turning pink, and she's
• 8:33
  giggling to herself and squealing, and it's really funny because Lufy has no idea
• 8:39
  what's going on, and he keeps calling her Hammock and I was just like,
• 8:41
  this is so disrespectful. Oh my god. So that's what we get
• 8:46
  with the two of them to start this episode off. And then we cut
• 8:48
  over to Nami landing, and it's like we're seeing her falling towards the earth
• 8:54
  at the same time as we are seeing I think the barama or drop if
• 9:00
  I'm understanding what that tool is, like an air pressure thing, and she
• 9:05
  hits the ground hard, like it's a really loud noise, and this little
• 9:11
  old man comes out to see her and this guy like all he needs are
• 9:16
  stars and moons on his robe and hat. He's got appointed like gnome like
• 9:26
  sort of hat. It's like a wizard cap and robes. And he brings
• 9:31
  her inside and when she wakes up, she is in a comfortable bed,
• 9:37
  and at first it's just like, oh, this is new. But when
• 9:43
  he pokes his head out and it's like, oh, are you finally awake?
• 9:46
  He startles her. Now, I would just like to register my disgust
• 9:54
  with Nami, and I will add a caveat to this in saying that as
• 10:01
  a woman winding up in the home of a strange man, in a strange
• 10:07
  bed where you don't know how you got there or what's going on, I
• 10:13
  understand reacting with trepidation. Nummy is such a total cunt here though, like
• 10:26
  repeatedly, I don't feel like she ever actually says thank you those words,
• 10:33
  like she is never actually extending any sort of appreciate you picking me up a
• 10:41
  total stranger that crashed to the ground, who knows who I could have been,
• 10:46
  and nursing me back to health two days she was unconscious, and as
• 10:50
  soon as she comes back to consciousness, she begins to beat the shit out
• 10:56
  of this guy over nothing, and she keeps telling him to back off,
• 11:01
  and I'm like, how about you just leave his home? Then? How
• 11:05
  about you just go outside and don't tell the man who owns this house,
• 11:09
  who has been trying to help you, to back off when he's doing nothing
• 11:13
  but checking if you're okay, relax. Like it was just so over the
• 11:20
  top. It was like. The thing about Nami that I have often liked
• 11:24
  is the fact that she doesn't She isn't a sweetie, you know, she
• 11:30
  isn't trying to be likable. She's here to get her shit done. But
• 11:35
  there's a difference between like not attempting to be likable and being outright aggressive and
• 11:41
  like rude for no reason, which is what it really feels like is going
• 11:46
  on here. The first time that she says anything nice to him isn't until
• 11:52
  almost the end of this scene with her, when he has made her something
• 11:56
  to eat and she's telling him like it was really good. It takes forever
• 12:01
  for her to say anything slightly complimentary or warm. And you are in this
• 12:07
  dude's territory and you don't know anybody else, you don't know where you've wound
• 12:11
  up it's honestly beyond just being like grateful to somebody who helped you. It's
• 12:18
  in your best interest to be reasonable from the get go when you are in
• 12:24
  a location you didn't choose, with people you don't know. It's just the
• 12:30
  smart thing to do, like be diplomatic, That's all I'm asking. So,
• 12:37
  yeah, when she wakes up and does the who the heck are you?
• 12:39
  Where am I? And the translation, so she says, what is
• 12:48
  this? He says, calm down, you're in my house. I dragged
• 12:52
  you in here a while. And she says, you did what to me?
• 12:56
  And really screams at him, and I'm like, what do you?
• 12:58
  What do you think? Girl? Like, come on, you're in a
• 13:03
  bed, fully clothed, the house is immaculate, and this this is like
• 13:09
  an old man who's asking, oh, you're finally awake in a concerned way,
• 13:16
  what do you what do you think is going on? And she tells
• 13:20
  him, I'm getting out of your creepy shack, uncalled for. This is
• 13:26
  a lovely little home. Why are you calling it a creepy shack. She
• 13:30
  starts to chuck stuff at him. She like throws a picture and when he
• 13:35
  comes at her again, she throws a bunch of other stuff and says,
• 13:37
  I said, back off, you freak. What in God's name? Why
• 13:45
  why are you like this? And she starts to sort of remember some of
• 13:52
  what happened and to realize, like she has no idea where she is,
• 13:58
  her position is not awesome right now, so she starts crying. And I
• 14:05
  love how he says hey, like fifteen times in a row, and finally
• 14:11
  when she's like, well, what do you want, he's afraid to even
• 14:15
  come out or say anything because he's got lumps all over his head. Again.
• 14:20
  She never apologizes for this, She just you know, He's like,
• 14:24
  are you done? Are you calmed down? And she just says yeah.
• 14:28
  And I was like, girl, honestly. So this is when they have
• 14:33
  their food, and he says, you slept for two days, so I'm
• 14:39
  sure anything would taste amazing right now. You must have been really put through
• 14:43
  an ordeal. And he shows her this weird rope that I think he calls
• 14:52
  a wind rope or a wind cord. Hold on, I'm looking for it.
• 14:58
  This may look like ordinary Europe, but these are in fact tightly wound
• 15:01
  wind knots. That's what it is. So if he unties one, it's
• 15:05
  a breeze. If he unties two, it's a strong gust, and if
• 15:09
  he unties three, it's a gale. And he does all of those,
• 15:15
  which causes the entire table to go over, and she once again screams at
• 15:20
  him and hits him. Girl, So yeah, he says, I just
• 15:31
  thought that would cheer you up, and she says, oh yeah, I'm
• 15:33
  real cheery. Now I'm out of here. She opens the door and when
• 15:39
  she goes outside there is a pretty strong storm brewing. At first, she
• 15:43
  thinks she's gonna be fine, the wind knocks her down. There's like a
• 15:48
  vase that comes flying or like some sort of planter I don't know, but
• 15:52
  it's heavy and it comes right toward her and she looks up and she realizes
• 15:58
  that there is a clone headed their way and tries to go inside and warn
• 16:03
  him like he doesn't know, which is funny because like this dude just shows
• 16:07
  you a rope that can make wind do what he wants. I really feel
• 16:14
  not me, like you should maybe leap to the conclusion that he knows anything
• 16:18
  about whether already I feel like you know oooh. Gus is saying about Boa
• 16:26
  and Lufy she's twenty nine and he's seventeen. It Sara fhim says. One
• 16:33
  thing of note is all these where are the other straw Hat stories were only
• 16:37
  like two or three single panel coverage cover pages in the manga. The anime
• 16:41
  took the basic idea and extended them so they can get a bit odder than
• 16:45
  normal. They are that, Gus says, yeah, each of these episodes
• 16:49
  were adapted from two pages with no dialogue, just a single subtitle, one
• 16:53
  page per person. That makes sense because all of this feels like very much
• 17:00
  like a what's the word I want? Tableau? You know. So she
• 17:07
  comes inside, she tries to warn him about the cyclone. It's very clear
• 17:11
  like he knows what's going on, and she is trying to get him to
• 17:15
  panic, and it's just she's assuming because he isn't reacting the way she wants
• 17:22
  him to that he just doesn't understand the importance of what she's telling him.
• 17:29
  So we have a kind of fun moment where she goes into the shower and
• 17:33
  is like, there's all of these clouds floating about, which did make me
• 17:37
  sort of think about a sky island, but I didn't think that was where
• 17:41
  she was. I just didn't think she would have been thrown that far,
• 17:45
  but I don't know why not. So he says to turn the wheel and
• 17:49
  hot water will come out, but he doesn't mention how it works exactly.
• 17:53
  It's like a cloud that comes out first, and then the cloud rains warm
• 18:00
  water, and then after that, from that same like spot, hot air
• 18:04
  blows out, which drives her off and drives her hair, which is genius
• 18:11
  actually, And I completely understand why we don't have that function because water plus
• 18:15
  electricity in that manner is a bad combo. But oh my god, guys,
• 18:22
  if I could like just from the same spot in the shower, turn
• 18:27
  a like warm fan on and dry myself off even part way so that I
• 18:33
  didn't have to deal with toweling off, that would be so nice. That's
• 18:40
  like one step away from in the Hunger Games, which I will be covering
• 18:44
  with Rashwan starting in about a month. By the way, there's a part
• 18:49
  where she first gets to the capitol and she takes a shower and washes her
• 18:52
  hair, and there's this thing that she puts both her hands on and a
• 18:56
  current runs through her and her hair just sort of flares behind her, completely
• 19:00
  dried and ever since I've read that, it's been like a fantasy for me,
• 19:06
  because my hair takes ages to dry, and that's part of having coarse,
• 19:11
  curly hair. It's not even that course, and for other people it
• 19:14
  takes even longer to dry. But my hair takes at least about a full
• 19:18
  seven to eight hours to fully dry, air dry, and the idea of
• 19:22
  having something that would dry it instantly, I mean truly the best. So
• 19:32
  anyway, he makes some tea and they're sipping it and having like a nice
• 19:36
  chill moment. And then when she says, why are we so calm?
• 19:40
  A giant storm is going to wreck this place. Unlike you, I'm too
• 19:45
  young to die. There's just never a civil word out of her mouth,
• 19:49
  and this whole little story. So the storm starts to hit. There's all
• 19:57
  kinds of rattling objects, like beginning to move on the shelves, and he
• 20:03
  tells her to stay in there and wait, and he walks outside with a
• 20:07
  sphere of light around him that's clearly protecting him so that he's able to walk
• 20:12
  with no problem. And she watches him walking away, asks herself, how
• 20:18
  is he so able to easily walk in this weather? And then instead of
• 20:26
  again accepting that maybe this man knows about the situation more than you and is
• 20:30
  capable of coping with it. She decides that she's going to go and take
• 20:36
  his wind knots and combine them with her climate tack stick and get this whole
• 20:45
  storm to break up. And it works. It's successful. She is clearly
• 20:52
  not expecting the rope to be as effective as it is, so when it
• 20:56
  shoots up and connects and does what she wants it to do, it sort
• 21:02
  of throws her down for a second. And there's a real like sense of
• 21:07
  that packed more of a punch than I thought it would. But I really
• 21:12
  was like that, you he made this really weird rope. You don't think
• 21:21
  he knows once again, for Christ's sake, like it's just it's the combo
• 21:32
  of how rude she's being, with how she's not putting any very obvious like
• 21:37
  one plus ones together, And he mentions finally when she goes back down there
• 21:45
  after the sky is once again blue, he says, this is a small
• 21:49
  sky island called Withtheria or Whetheria, and we conduct studies of the weather,
• 21:59
  and that cyclone looked like it had the possibility of being an intriguing specimen,
• 22:03
  but it just suddenly up and disappeared on us. Now, I wonder how
• 22:07
  that could have happened. And he strokes his beard when he says that,
• 22:11
  but I can't tell if it's because he knows that she did it. I
• 22:17
  think he does. And I just want to mention that this island is really
• 22:22
  really cool looking. It's not only a sky island, it's on a bubble,
• 22:27
  so I don't know if that means that it's like nearer to Sabaode than
• 22:34
  the other sky islands that we've seen. But there's also like a really there's
• 22:41
  a round what do you call it, a circular rainbow that's sort of like
• 22:45
  canted to a diagonal angle, like a jaunty hat draped over the whole thing.
• 22:52
  I don't know. I just really like this island. I think,
• 22:53
  out of every place that we have seen so far, the design of this
• 22:57
  place is the one that's the prettiest overall. So it ends with the narrators.
• 23:07
  So Nami found herself on a small island in the sky, will she
• 23:11
  ever be able to find her way back to her friends? And there is
• 23:17
  the one that we get because the narrator chimes in at the end of all
• 23:21
  of them. The jump in that we get after Frankie's is my personal favorite,
• 23:27
  and I almost wanted to like record it and turn it into a ring
• 23:30
  tone. So we go from there to Frankie's and he has landed on a
• 23:37
  snow island, which for any of our characters this would be a headache because
• 23:45
  nobody's really dressed for snow, but Frankie, I think, is the least
• 23:49
  dressed out of all of them. If I were going to be like pick
• 23:55
  somebody, I would either pick for Chopper to end up here because he's for
• 24:00
  or Boat, not Bones. I was gonna call him bones Brook, and
• 24:07
  that's just because he has no flesh to freeze, so I would assume this
• 24:10
  would not do anything to him. But there is a kid walking through the
• 24:15
  snow. His name is Kitten, and he is with a dog that's got
• 24:19
  like he's got sort of it's like sunglasses, but they almost look like the
• 24:30
  thing that the dude from Star Trek has over his eyes. I can't remember
• 24:36
  his name, or like the what's the Cyclops from The X Men wears?
• 24:44
  It's this is an animal that's got some cyborg qualities. So they see this
• 24:51
  figure and at first you just see a huge silhouette, and I thought,
• 24:57
  you guys, that this was child in his like giant form, because he
• 25:03
  had turned into that huge form, if I'm not mistaken right before he got
• 25:08
  slapped into next week. I don't know if that if it's supposed to be
• 25:14
  that he changed while he was like traveling, or if I'm misremembering and he
• 25:19
  transformed back into his little form before getting slapped. But I really really thought
• 25:25
  that's who this was, and I was genuinely startled when it turned out to
• 25:29
  be Frankie and Frankie. It's so funny because the dog who opens his mouth
• 25:37
  and has two little missiles in there. The dog attacks him, and Frankie
• 25:41
  goes down because they think that this is like some animal that they're hunting,
• 25:47
  and then they realize this is just a guy. And this dog fires a
• 25:52
  couple of missiles, like six of them. So the kid kitten comes up
• 25:56
  and it's just like, hey man, no hard feelings, are you okay?
• 26:03
  And he just sits right up and is like yeah, you know,
• 26:07
  no big deal. And I love this kid just being like wow, he's
• 26:11
  just gonna walk it off that he got hit with missiles So at this point
• 26:19
  we get an amazing series of moments. So Frankie is starting to complain that
• 26:27
  it's quite cold and begin sneezing. So I always wonder about this guy's I
• 26:33
  am sure that there is science behind this, but like the idea of you'll
• 26:41
  catch cold from the cold. I like I said, I'm sure there's like
• 26:48
  some truth to that, but it has always felt like it shouldn't be true
• 26:52
  to me. So the idea of like, oh, it's cold and so
• 26:56
  now I'm going to sneeze because I instantly have a cold has always been real
• 27:00
  weird and I love Kitten says to bandit, steal your pants, and this
• 27:04
  old guy offers him a fur pelt to put on. Frankie says, I'm
• 27:11
  trying to maintain a style here that would cramp my reputation as a freak.
• 27:18
  Oh, I gotta move, man like this, Wow, come on,
• 27:23
  follow my lead. And he begins to dance, and his dance is a
• 27:30
  solo performance. For a little while, he instructs them with the same sort
• 27:36
  of like slide to the left, slide to the right. Once lat now
• 27:41
  y'all like it's it's a whole thing. And eventually when the camera pulls in
• 27:45
  and out again. This pair of humans are dancing with him, and the
• 27:51
  dog is just watching, and then we like zoom in on them and back
• 27:55
  out again, and then the dog is also participating. And honestly, I
• 28:00
  would definitely be down for like a Frankie lead sort of Callissenic's program. I
• 28:08
  would be into it, That's all I'm saying. So yeah, he says,
• 28:15
  that's how it's done, all right, But then the cold begins to
• 28:22
  hit him again, and they tell him we're on Mechanical Island what's known as
• 28:30
  the birthplace of the genius. The what now the genius? And all of
• 28:38
  a sudden, the who the genius? And he covers with snow, and
• 28:45
  then when the snow is gone, he is encased in solid ice and they
• 28:52
  have to transport him to the nearest like hospital slash laboratory in this ice and
• 29:00
  is the genius the person that we know who made not made made Kuma?
• 29:08
  Is that the person that's responsible. I can't remember, because there was like
• 29:12
  a sense of him recognizing that name, but I wasn't able to totally remember
• 29:18
  everything. Sarah from says, I think you mean a super set of moments.
• 29:25
  The cold making music is mostly being very cold can impair your immune system.
• 29:30
  Yeah, that makes sense. So we go. We see all of
• 29:34
  these surgeons and they're working with like robotic arms as well that are assisting them.
• 29:40
  But they're talking about how weird it is that Frankie runs on cola and
• 29:45
  that since they don't have cola, they are going to have to find another
• 29:49
  fuel source. So our new friends are waiting in like the waiting room outside
• 29:57
  and the doors open and Frankie comes out, not looking himself at all.
• 30:08
  He is still paintless. I will say that at the very least that has
• 30:14
  remained the same. But his hair is combed very neatly and tidily to one
• 30:23
  side, and he is wearing a like coat that has tails like a It
• 30:32
  almost looks like a morning jacket, I think is what you would call this
• 30:36
  from a morning suit, and it is closed in the front like there it's
• 30:42
  still it's if you saw him from the waist up, well, I was
• 30:48
  gonna say it would look like he was fully dressed, but he's not wearing
• 30:51
  a shirt under that coat, and he just has a bowtie despite not having
• 30:56
  a shirt. So my headcannon now will be that that bowtie is a necklace
• 31:02
  that he's wearing. But yeah, he's got a British accent. And it
• 31:06
  turns out that this is a result of him now being fueled by tea,
• 31:15
  and it's such a weird thing, you guys, because like this is his
• 31:18
  fuel now, is the tea. But he has no hangups whatsoever about like
• 31:26
  taking that pot of tea out and pouring a cup for each of them so
• 31:30
  that they all can have some when that's your fuel, Dude, what are
• 31:40
  you They just did surgery on you because you ran out of fuel. What
• 31:44
  are you doing distributing it amongst everybody? Like it's like if I just,
• 31:48
  like, you know, tapped a vein and poured a cup for everybody,
• 31:52
  Like what? So they sit and have tea for a little while. Another
• 32:00
  tea moment between him and Nami. We've got some tea this episode, and
• 32:05
  the kid finally is just like, I don't like this. You used to
• 32:07
  be a lot funnier before. I liked you way better the way you were,
• 32:13
  And he says, what was I like before you were like this?
• 32:15
  And he does the super pose and I'm like, that's accurate. That is
• 32:22
  what he was like before. There's a log pause as Frankie SIPs his tea
• 32:29
  again, and it was honestly very funny. And then he says, you
• 32:32
  know, lad, that's just a tad embarrassing, and the kid says,
• 32:37
  we need to get you some cola right away, and that's the end of
• 32:43
  this little moment here. So once again we get the announcer, and so
• 32:50
  Frankie became a gentleman on Mechanical Island? Will he ever be a super freak
• 32:55
  again? I fell out laughing so hard, you guys, Will he ever
• 33:00
  be a super freak again? Presented as a real problem? That is just
• 33:07
  gorgeous. I love that so much, Like I really want that sound effect
• 33:16
  to be a bring tone. Will he ever be a super freak again?
• 33:22
  Oh my god? Oh I didn't even notice. Yeah, the snow uncovers
• 33:28
  the name Vega Punk, so that is the person who did Kuma. Okay
• 33:31
  cool. So this is the start of the second of these two episodes.
• 33:38
  Hold on, there's people in the chat. Let me go, look,
• 33:43
  I think some snow fell off a sign at the end. Oh oh,
• 33:45
  Gus is saying, yeah, I just saw that, yup, yup,
• 33:47
  yup. So next one we start off once again with Lufy and Boa.
• 33:55
  I love it. She is so angry that they are not giving her beloved
• 34:00
  Lufy adequate nourishment. She is like, I have already told you. I
• 34:05
  think. She says, like a hundred kilos of food is the minimum,
• 34:10
  which truly they should have an entire separate ship just for supplies, because that's
• 34:15
  insane. And I just love how's She tosses her head so far back.
• 34:22
  You guys, I really love this. I don't know what it is.
• 34:28
  It's just so bonkers looking and it works really well for her, you know,
• 34:37
  I don't know. This just really gets to me every time I see
• 34:40
  it. So yeah, bring her another meal to her specifications to replace this
• 34:46
  one. So then we have her imagining feeding Lufy open wide for me,
• 34:55
  okay, and of course Lufy simply delectable. And when you're the one feeding
• 35:02
  it to me, why it makes it all the sweeter. Oh go on,
• 35:09
  And then we come back to her and she says, clearly, that's
• 35:13
  exactly what he would say, and I'm just like, girl, you have
• 35:17
  got to come back to reality. She's off in the corner like giggling to
• 35:21
  herself, and Lufy is actually sitting there trying to talk to her, and
• 35:24
  she can't engage because she's so caught up in her own head. And he
• 35:30
  asked her to come and eat with him, and she's like, oh,
• 35:35
  I don't really have an appetite. And as she's off to the side,
• 35:37
  she hears some guys whispering to each other, and it turns out we've got
• 35:42
  a couple of peeping tom's who are attempting to see in. She opens the
• 35:46
  door and love Love beams the two of them to stone. I for one
• 35:54
  cannot fall her. These guys got turned into stone once and got out of
• 36:00
  it, and they have not learned their lesson. She is very scary and
• 36:07
  they should really just some men don't learn. Some men just do not learn.
• 36:15
  So I love When Lufy asks what's going on, she says, it
• 36:21
  was just two bad mannered rats and I taught them a lesson. I was
• 36:24
  like, that's that's not not what happened. But it makes it sound so
• 36:30
  casual, and I'm wondering if Lufy is ever going to start to find fault
• 36:34
  with her behavior or not, Like I personally, I'm fine with it with
• 36:38
  this and specifically, but we go we go outside, the guys are like,
• 36:45
  oh okay, So these two men who have been turned to stone are
• 36:49
  clearly a warning to not look in her fucking room. And we see Lufy
• 36:53
  who is contemplating the Viva card from his brother, which is continuing to smold.
• 37:00
  Then we cut to poor Chopper, who is stumbling around and this,
• 37:07
  it turns out, is a dream because at first I thought, oh okay,
• 37:15
  he like we are jumping from him landing in the woods too. He's
• 37:20
  already woken up, but he, it turns out, is dreaming. So
• 37:25
  he's yelling out loud about how like, guys, where is everybody? And
• 37:30
  then he hears a voice say hey, Chopper, and he looks up and
• 37:34
  there's Lufy, and all of a sudden, everything is better. Once Lufy
• 37:38
  appears, the whole crew is standing right there, and Chopper starts like sobbing
• 37:44
  with relief and is just saying, oh my god, I'm so glad everybody
• 37:49
  is here. And then he wakes up and it's not like Nami waking up
• 37:55
  in a soft bed in a house with people. It turns out he has
• 38:01
  landed in this weird bird's nest that has two giant birds in it, and
• 38:08
  these birds don't really seem to know what to make of him. He assumes
• 38:13
  initially that they're trying to eat him, which like, why wouldn't you,
• 38:16
  and they poke at him with their beaks until he wakes. But then when
• 38:22
  he tries to get away, I was thinking, oh, are they going
• 38:24
  to do, like these birds mistake him for one of their young sort of
• 38:29
  thing. But it doesn't seem like that, because the birds eventually begin to
• 38:32
  just toss him back and forth amongst the two of them, and they sort
• 38:38
  of treat him like he's a toy, which I think he specifically says,
• 38:44
  I'm a reindeer, not a toy. But yeah. He tries to run
• 38:47
  away at one point, and the bird is like edging him towards the edge
• 38:53
  of this like precipice, which it catches him before he can fall, and
• 39:00
  he starts yelling to let me go. But then it seems to sort of
• 39:05
  register and he looks down and realizes that he is hundreds of feet in the
• 39:09
  air. I think he's on the top of a tree, and it's like
• 39:13
  the tree. It's a similar thing to like Robin's Island, where there's one
• 39:19
  enormous tree in the center that dominates the entire island, but the tree itself
• 39:23
  is big enough to be like a city really on its own. I love
• 39:31
  the fact that the birds they don't want to eat him, but they do
• 39:35
  just want to fuck with him. Is somehow really funny to me, honestly,
• 39:39
  And he calls them really mean at one point. So eventually they just
• 39:45
  toss him over the side, which would surely have killed him, but he
• 39:50
  goes plummeting. We see him hit a bunch of branches, rocks and everything
• 39:53
  on the way down, and I was just like, this poor chopper is
• 39:57
  being put through it. The birds are up there laughing, and I was
• 40:00
  like, just so rude. So he's on the ground and once again it's
• 40:07
  like just passes out, and when he wakes up, he is actually,
• 40:17
  oh, I lie, he doesn't pass out here. We cut to him
• 40:22
  walking with like a little walking stick I forgot. Somebody knocks him on the
• 40:25
  back of the head is what happens, which makes some sense because he's in
• 40:32
  this really strange place and he's just wandering around calling out to his friends,
• 40:38
  which I'm not blaming him for, but if you don't know if there are
• 40:42
  people around, it's a really good way to make yourself into a target.
• 40:46
  And he starts to think about his friends and is like, even like on
• 40:52
  a deserted island, they would make a great party. He has come to
• 40:57
  the conclusion finally that he is not on the same island that they were when
• 41:02
  this all went down initially. But yeah, he gets knocked on the head
• 41:07
  and is wakes up and he is above a molten pit of magma. I
• 41:17
  thought that he was like going to be lowered into it, that he was
• 41:23
  going to be a sacrifice of some kind, but instead it seems like they're
• 41:32
  cooking to eat him because based on like the conversation they wind up having.
• 41:38
  And it's a shame because like the bank on the head comes right after him
• 41:46
  realizing probably his friends are going to be using their VIV cards to get back
• 41:51
  to Railey, that they'll never give up and that he has to, like
• 41:54
  you know, get his ass moving and work towards this goal as well.
• 41:58
  So things were looking good for him for a minute, and he tells himself
• 42:01
  like he needs to start eating so that he can get strong, and he's
• 42:07
  eating all of these like random fruits, but they taste bad. He catches
• 42:10
  a lizard that I guess he is planning on eating, and he's not really
• 42:14
  sure if he can like stomach it, but he's thinking, I don't really
• 42:17
  have a lot of options here, so that is what he's distracted with when
• 42:23
  he gets bombed, and as he is waking up and figuring out what his
• 42:30
  circumstances are, we have got this parade of people who are dancing around the
• 42:37
  fire where he is set up. And this is the sort of thing that
• 42:43
  it's just really painful because I Am sure they didn't mean any harm, but
• 42:50
  they're doing that really cringey like Native American accent sort of like, you know,
• 43:00
  I don't even know what to call this, because Native Americans can have
• 43:07
  a very specific accent, but that's not what they're doing here. They're doing
• 43:09
  that like Disney's Peter Pan Native American thing, where it's like a me want
• 43:16
  food, that kind of thing, almost you like going in the direction of
• 43:22
  like a caveman, but more articulate than that. And it's just it's just
• 43:29
  not a good look. Like the whole thing just feels really weird. And
• 43:37
  for some reason as well, this entire tribe of people are all really fat,
• 43:43
  so they all look like nearly identical. The women have almost the exact
• 43:47
  same body type as the men, and they're talking about how excited they are
• 43:52
  to eat raccoon because they it's a delicacy that they don't often find and that
• 43:59
  they would rather have chicken, but they can't find chicken, so they're going
• 44:02
  to have to do with what they've got. Considering how many of them there
• 44:07
  are, Chopper seems wholly inadequate as a meal. But once Chopper begins to
• 44:15
  yell about how he's not actually a raccoon, they're like, wait, he
• 44:22
  can talk, and they're sort of figuring out how to deal with him when
• 44:30
  a bunch of other dudes come running from the area with the nest and it
• 44:35
  turns out they were trying to sneak up on the birds and the birds caught
• 44:38
  them. I don't know if they were going to try and kill and eat
• 44:42
  the birds, or if they were trying to steal eggs or what, but
• 44:45
  the birds begin to basically like dive bomb them, and as they do,
• 44:52
  Chopper his like ropes break and he falls, and I think it's supposed to
• 44:59
  be like the impact of the birds or something like. It's just a weird
• 45:02
  how it breaks at this exact moment, but Chopper transforms partially into like his
• 45:10
  large form. As he's falling, he injures his poor little feet because he
• 45:15
  has to land on the edge of the pot that everything is boiling in.
• 45:19
  But he does get down, and he is big enough at this point that
• 45:22
  he could probably defend himself at least. And then we get the narrator that
• 45:30
  this is an island, you know, basically the birds run it. One
• 45:36
  legend suggests that its lands are filled with hidden treasure, but all Chopper has
• 45:42
  found is danger. So that's Chopper. So now I have the very unpleasant
• 45:47
  task of dealing with Sangi. It's just as Mike here. Oh boy.
• 46:01
  So this place is called Peachy Island, a dreamy, beautiful destination on the
• 46:09
  Grand Line, and it's very cute. I prefer the weather with Aia island.
• 46:17
  But this is like a bunch of heart shaped rocks with a giant heart
• 46:21
  shaped rainbow around it, and a fish that's got lipstick and a bow leaping
• 46:27
  out of the water. It's really giving Lisa frank vibes. Actually, now
• 46:30
  that I look at it and this fish, I swear to God it's got
• 46:37
  stars and hearts and its eyes and we see all of these women who are
• 46:43
  giggling and chasing after Sanji, and it starts off with him saying, my
• 46:51
  dearest Nami, my dearest Robin, it's been a while. How are you
• 46:54
  as for me? I'm and it's a real like you're probably wondering how I
• 47:00
  got here. So we cut back to him waking up on the shore of
• 47:07
  the island, looking up and seeing this incredible rainbow and just kind of being
• 47:14
  like, Jesus, what the fuck happened? Which you would ask The trees
• 47:20
  even have like pink leaves, I believe, or else it's supposed to be
• 47:25
  like flower petals. The petals or leaves are heart shaped. I think it's
• 47:32
  supposed to be petals. But anyway, there's a woman here asking are you
• 47:38
  okay? Say something anything, and he can't respond and passes out again.
• 47:46
  We hear him like, eventually he starts groaning and seems to open his eyes
• 47:52
  a little bit, and this woman is sitting on a bench wiping his face
• 47:58
  with a handkerchief, and his head is in her lap, and he's like,
• 48:02
  oh, I'm in the lap of a beautiful woman. Is it Nami?
• 48:07
  Is it Robin? I must be dreaming it doesn't matter. All I
• 48:12
  know is I want to stay here forever. And he puts his hand on
• 48:16
  her hand, which startles her and she runs away crying, which is a
• 48:23
  weird reaction. He looks down and sees the handkerchief that she had been wiping
• 48:30
  his face with has been left, and when he opens it, it's embroidered
• 48:35
  with the name Elizabeth and a heart, a very intricate, weird looking heart.
• 48:39
  So he determines, this is like the most romantic beautiful island I've ever
• 48:45
  been. And Elizabeth, who was treating my wounds, is a clearly romantic,
• 48:52
  beautiful woman. I am going to go and find her. I hope
• 48:58
  that Nami and Robin can appreciate the fact that I am being unfaithful because I
• 49:05
  have met my true love who is clearly an angel, because I am obviously
• 49:10
  in heaven. So then and I had a suspicion, You guys, I
• 49:20
  had my suspicions. You know. He's imagining her and him running on the
• 49:27
  beach, just these like romantic moments, and he pulls out Raleigh's Viver card,
• 49:31
  and he's thinking about how like they're waiting for him. But the least
• 49:36
  I can do is thank Elizabeth for her kindness. Of course, sure,
• 49:42
  So he finds her house and when he is standing in front of it,
• 49:45
  and it looks like it looks sort of like one of the towers of the
• 49:52
  taj Mahal, trying to think what you call this sort of architecture where the
• 49:57
  top looks like a raddish But he's standing there, like at the end of
• 50:01
  the path, and we see all of these women who are like hiding behind
• 50:07
  the trees around him and poking their heads out and looking at him. And
• 50:10
  it's really weird because like they all have really similar faces, but their eyes
• 50:16
  are not visible. And I was not sure what to make of this,
• 50:20
  And I guess what we're meant to think later is simply that their faces were
• 50:24
  in shadows, so you couldn't really see their features very well. I don't
• 50:30
  know. But he goes to the door and he tells Elizabeth, like,
• 50:36
  I just want to thank you and bring you your handkerchief. She very amusingly
• 50:43
  opens the door and just grabs the handkerchief and slams the door again. And
• 50:46
  I was actually sort of enjoying that. So he decides, you know what,
• 50:54
  I can't take offense. She doesn't know me, and I'm maybe rushing
• 51:00
  things a little bit. Why don't I just like approach her because she's clearly
• 51:07
  shy with a little bit more thoughtfulness. So he starts talking about how he
• 51:15
  couldn't bear to leave without thanking her. Perhaps you would allow me to apologize
• 51:20
  for being too forward and give me the honor of cooking for you whatever you'd
• 51:24
  like, I'll make it. I'm a world class chef. And she then
• 51:32
  says, you really like to cook, and he says, yes, I
• 51:37
  love cooking. Do you like clothes too? Like fashion? Yeah? Unlike
• 51:45
  some stupid swordsman, I know, I actually care a lot about the way
• 51:49
  I look. Really, you're not just saying that, Oh no, what
• 51:53
  about dresses? And he's like dresses and then says, oh, she's asking
• 52:00
  me about stuff because she wants to know what I'm into, because she's trying
• 52:05
  to make a love connection. And he's imagining her wearing a dress and like
• 52:12
  modeling it for him, asking him what he thinks of it on her,
• 52:17
  And I think the very last question is what about flower? Oh no,
• 52:25
  flower prints? What about flower? Nothing in life beats a gorgeous flower print.
• 52:30
  They're so adorable, And she starts laughing, and she says, all
• 52:36
  right then, and she opens the doors, and there's this like really achingly
• 52:44
  drawn out sequence of Lufy finally being able to clearly see her. And it's
• 52:52
  like starts off as she's walking toward him, looking like what he had been
• 53:00
  imagining, and as it continues, the everything like sort of transforms because he's
• 53:07
  getting clarity on what's in front of him. And she has come at him
• 53:14
  with a dress and tries to like put it on him, and he like
• 53:19
  gets knocked over and is thinking like she's just being a little bit over excited
• 53:24
  and sits up and says, my dear Elizabeth. And this is when the
• 53:29
  camera pulls back and we see the hairy legs, we see the five o'clock
• 53:35
  shadow on the face, and the really square jaw, and the face it's
• 53:42
  like the joke is supposed to be it's such a masculine face but with lipstick
• 53:50
  and mascara, and isn't that silly? But the face is truly absolutely terrifying.
• 53:58
  Like this is the kind of mask that somebody in the Purge would wear,
• 54:04
  is what I kept thinking when I was looking at this. This is
• 54:07
  one of the scariest faces i've ever seen. It's got a really weird structure
• 54:12
  too, Like it's sort of an extremely angular diamond shape in one direction,
• 54:20
  but then it's got a real square in another direction. It's almost reminding me
• 54:24
  of if you took like Rob Lowe's face and drew everything out with like a
• 54:30
  photoshop tool. It's so scary, and it says Elizabeth in parentheses. Man
• 54:43
  in parenthesis chuckles, and Sanji begins to look around and realize there are women
• 54:51
  behind him as well, and all of them are men in drag. I
• 54:55
  don't know if they're like, if it's supposed to be that they are women,
• 55:02
  or if it's supposed to be that it's just men who are dressing up
• 55:07
  like women for their own fun. It feels like they're trains because the way
• 55:13
  that they approach him is this is a safe place. You don't have to
• 55:19
  pretend to be something you're not anymore. It's a free country where you can
• 55:22
  be yourself. And it's such a shame, guys, because this is un
• 55:29
  ironically a sweet and wonderful idea and they have it as a as a fucking
• 55:36
  horror story, and it just it's just it's so oh god, it's really
• 55:42
  such a fucking bummer, and Elizabeth says, here, put on this dress
• 55:47
  and open the door to your heart, and Sanji says, no, I'm
• 55:52
  not going to open anything, and he starts to run and they all begin
• 55:57
  to chase him, and they all have huge heads that are completely out of
• 56:00
  proportion with the rest of their body. It's extremely strange, and the narrator
• 56:07
  is explaining on this island that no matter what forms their body takes, everybody
• 56:12
  on this island has girlish hearts. And we see that all of the animals
• 56:16
  that are like you know that had extremely feminine features earlier, they all have
• 56:22
  five o'clock shadow as well. Now it's hilarious, so funny, like come
• 56:34
  on, come on, you know, it's just such a shame. It's
• 56:38
  like one step away from this is the future liberals who want, you know.
• 56:45
  And so then we have him like being chased down the beach and he's
• 56:50
  yelling, leave me alone, you weirdos. I'm not into that kind of
• 56:53
  crap. And the whole idea that like they would be so determined to force
• 57:01
  him into this, it's just their faces transform into this sort of rabid,
• 57:09
  tongue out horror show as they chase after him. It's just really awful,
• 57:15
  you guys. I hated this so much. I was watching it and just
• 57:20
  like cringing the whole time because it could this could have been done in such
• 57:29
  a like acute way, and the fact that they decided to make it into
• 57:34
  the horror show that it is explicitly as a prank on Sanji, because like,
• 57:39
  you know, I get what they're trying to do, but it's just
• 57:45
  really really gross. So it's a shame because I really enjoyed the others the
• 57:50
  first two and then Choppers started out okay and we got into the whole weird
• 57:55
  like native thing, and then this really was like, oh boy, we're
• 58:00
  doing this. So I am looking forward to leaving this behind frankly. But
• 58:08
  yeah, So that's those two episodes. There was really not a whole lot
• 58:12
  of substance to them. But so I'm a little bit under time, actually,
• 58:16
  but I think that's fine. I don't have a lot more to say
• 58:19
  about these. I'm just looking forward to seeing everybody else and how they get
• 58:22
  back together again. So I'm going to wrap this one up. Thank you
• 58:27
  again, Gabby very much for commissioning this. I appreciate everybody who is listening,
• 58:31
  and until next time titt loom motherfuckers. That was an unspoiled network podcast.
