「怒りのJETピストル ルフィvs黒ヒゲ」 (Ikari no Jetto Pisutoru – Rufi vs Kurohige)
“Jet Pistol of Anger! Luffy vs. Blackbeard!”
So continuing right away from last week’s episode, Mr. Edward Teach aka Blackbeard gets a punch to the stomach, sending him straight to the wall.

「3 BRIDGE」
Comedic gold. Gag comedy is freaken awesome when you have Sugita Tomokazu as Hoshi going insane in a confession room while drilling Riku for the low-down on him and Nino. “I saw Nino leaving your place in the morning two days ago! Have you guys… gone on a date?”

「八千代と杏子と佐藤…と、帰ってきた音尾さん」 (Yachiyo to Kyouko to Satou… to, Kaetekita Otoo-san)
“Yachiyo, Kyouko, Satou… and Otoo-san Who’s Back”
So it turns out Yachiyo has been carrying her katana around since she was a kid to help ward off bullies, but when even that wasn’t enough, just leave it up to Kyouko to bring in the nail-bat to show those elementary school boys their place!

「#03」
It turns out that Tatsumi’s not only about unorthodox strategies in games, but unorthodox coaching during practices as well.

「永劫の調べ」 (Eigou no Shirabe)
“Eternal Investigation”
After seeing more of the female version of Yuki and hearing more of Yukana‘s sultry and seductive voice along with her, I’m left wondering why there had to be some gender bender bit going on with the main protagonist in this series.

「復讐の炎」 (Fukushuu no Honoo)
“Flame of Vengeance”
Selective intelligence manipulation at its finest! I wouldn’t have suspected Mustang’s crew to pin the coup d’état on the goons at Central, but it sure made for some good laughs along with Briggs bringing in the heavy artillery.
Well that’s where I come in, as I not only watch and read One Piece, but breathe it as well. Hyperboles aside, I’m not as fanatic about it as one who spends a lot more time analyzing the possible future and connections of the world of One Piece. However, One Piece represents to me so many things that I consider precious in life, being the passionate adventure through the sea, or the nakama connections of companionships. A satisfactory life to me is one that is full of these experiences. Yet as much as I treasure the main foundations that One Piece is built upon, it’s not to say I don’t enjoy the many twists and turns our Strawhat Pirates go through. Before all that however…
…Much more after the jump!

「ちょっと怖い先輩」 (Chotto Kowai Senpai)
“The Senior Who’s Kind of Scary”
With everything from questioning about penis sizes to bringing out her big gun, Korone is quickly proving to be my favorite character to watch in this series.

「形ばかりの」 (Katachi Bakari no)
“In Appearance Only”
Manglobe studio and samurai. It’s not the same hip-hop style as Samurai Champloo, but Sarai-ya Goyou, a.k.a. “House of Five Leaves”, takes a seinen spin on the Edo period in noitaminA‘s newly expanded time slot.
