Just finished it…
IT'S AWESOME.
Just finished it…
IT'S AWESOME.
wow just wow…
I am going to be the black sheep here for a moment and say that I felt the Ussop/Luffy scene was dragged out... and so were the marine fights... I liked the ball guy though. I kinda hope we see him again XD
This MIGHT be because I don't know Japanese though.. sometimes when I go back and watch a scene with subtitles it's more moving. That's probably the case here.
As for the finishing move... very reminicent of Gomu Gomu no Storm, but I especially liked the slow motion scenes. See in the manga I was never sure how many times Luffy actually hit Lucci... but I see now that it was... well quite a few XD
I was moved, I was in tears by the end of the episode. Im going to upload a short clip of you know what in a moment... but since the file is low quality, don't expect much.
It's on isohunt now guys:
Man, this episode sounds 100% kick ass. I can't wait for the sub so I can watch it^^ It sounds very exciting^^ Out of curiosity though, what was the bgm music used for the final blow? Was it something new or something we've heard before?
it was posted on the other page what the BGM was… oh dear it seems going from wmv to mpg made the file even more crap quality ;_;
oh well, it'll be good enough for youtube.
here you go:
EDIT:
you know Im surprised the wall held up for that long XD I mean Gomu Gomu no Storm can go through rock, what are those walls made of? must be something really strong O_O!
Oh I don't want to hear the music lol^^ It would spoil the feeling for me. I just wanna know what it sounded like. Was it contemporary and action-packed like I predicted?
So….does anyone think that made up for all of their screw ups during this past arc?
For me....well, I forgive them XD;;
Actually, I am really looking forward to the upcoming filler arc (though I know nothing about it, it has Franky & Sunny in it).
That, madam, was AWESOME.
Okay, I guess this is it. I need to watch all of Enies Lobby animated now cause next week is where it ends.
Oh I don't want to hear the music lol^^ It would spoil the feeling for me. I just wanna know what it sounded like. Was it contemporary and action-packed like I predicted?
well you can watch the clip I uploaded. It doesn't really spoil the episode because you obviously know what'll happen ;)
Well… I think the music was very fitting. It was almost as if it was made for that scene, i can't imagine it being used elsewhere.
So….does anyone think that made up for all of their screw ups during this past arc?
no… no... not quite but it does reinforce my "Toei has never dissapointed me with a finishing movie" thought.
I agree with gaara, the final attack wasn't really anything special in the manga, but i'm confident the anime will make it better.
Perhaps you should re-read the final attack against Crocodile in the manga. It is even less special then this one. Of course after the anime nobody could ever look at the manga handling the same again but just as manga version there is no difference over the Enies Lobby finale in terms of greatness. It´s the anime handling that made everyone take Crocodiles defeat at that level of awesomeness.
That said, can´t wait to watch the ep.
oh wow…. that Episode blew me away... definately at the same level as 126...
Just wow...
And next week is looking good too, The title is "a Friend, that comes from the Sea! The Strawhat Crew's Strongest Bond."
! MERRY NEXT TIME!!
Well I don't know exactly what's gonna happen^^ I mean I never read that chapter in the manga. Well I could but if I read the manga then see the episode I'll keep comparing the two in my head and will never be able to enjoy it, lol wierd I know. I mean I could read the manga if I wanted, I know which sites to go to but I choose not to for reasons stated earlier. As for the music, I want the first time I hear it to be in the episode, that's why I won't watch the clip you linked though it was greatly appreciated ;) Still from what you told me, they gave us a brand new piece of music so that's one point to me 'cause I predicted it will be something original^^ Now if the music turns out to be contemporary and action-packed then my entire prediction would be correct^^ Well I hope it is, I've never been wrong before^^
Due to Youtube being blocked in my country, I cannot view that video… Can someone be a nice person and upload Jet Gattling onto some download site? Thanks!
can you do mega upload? Im uploading it there now.
it was posted on the other page what the BGM was… oh dear it seems going from wmv to mpg made the file even more crap quality ;_;
oh well, it'll be good enough for youtube.here you go:
PLEASE DO NOT REPOST ELSEWHERE, I DON'T WANT MY YOUTUBE ACCOUNT REMOVED
it will be gone soon so see it while you can.EDIT:
you know Im surprised the wall held up for that long XD I mean Gomu Gomu no Storm can go through rock, what are those walls made of? must be something really strong O_O!
Sweet! That turned out even better than I expected! I mean, I expected a bunch of rapid-fire blows, but geez… Not like THAT!
On a sidenote, I was kinda disappointed that Toei didn't keep the "OH SHIT!" look that Lucci had on his face when Luffy's fists were shown hitting him in slow-motion. :sad:

there's mega upload
if that doesn't work… well that's all you get ;)
EDIT
BTW where does Lucci land? Im still not clear on that.
there's a bittorent raw over at vegapunk.
wow…. that definitely blew gomu gomu storm away just with pummelling power badassery on a whole new plane. You'd never expect to think poor rob lucci... but it's hard not to feel for the guy.
Also, luffy just looks battered and deep fried in a way that the manga just could never depict to the extent it deserved.
The ball captain and rust captain fights were resolved in a surprisingly satisfying way from my point of view. Everyone gets their moment of glory.
Yeah... this counts as favorite one piece episode.
man.... wow.
To commemorate this occasion, I changed my avatar to something more fitting.
Damn, still wishing that they had kept that face!
Oh stop it guys you're torturing me^^ I have to see it when the subs come out in high definiton. But listening to all you guys is painful lol^^
Bleh, after all the posts I expected something really great for the final blow and was obviously disappointed. Don´t get me wrong, the finish didn´t suck and was much better then Enels defeat but the BGM didn´t come even close to make it as intense as it was the case in Arabasta. Of course I might have to check a HQ version of it.
But what was really kickass and makes up for much is the animation of Jet Gatling. Finally a Jet move looks as it is supposed to be. And something I never would have dreamed of is that the color is even gray-ish transparent-ish which I always imagined since it is a high speed move rather then firing explosives (but after Brand New World and Unlimited Adventure I learned to live with the orange color). That was absolutely brilliant. Can´t wait to see it in HD.
yus one of the best episodes in the enies lobby arc
finally another episode on par with the first appearence of Gear2
jet gatling move was just freaking awesome
and the filler scenes with sanji and that rust guy were cool as well
wuhuuu pwnage episode :D

if that doesn't work… well that's all you get ;)EDIT
BTW where does Lucci land? Im still not clear on that.
Lucci fell into the tower Luffy broke through with Gear 3.
Hmm, the lq raw is one of those sucky fullscreen readjusted to widescreen things. Still…WOW. Well done, Toei.
Can't wait for a decent raw.
Ivotas, can't you have anything nice to say about the anime? People like you make me lament all the time.
Wow That one piece was the best ever !!! cant wait to watch it in subs its going to be class !!!!
Ivotas, can't you have anything nice to say about the anime? People like you make me lament all the time.
Well if you would actually read my post instead of just searching with a fine tooth comb for negative comments from my side then you would have noticed that half of my post was a totally positive statement about what I liked. But of course it is too much expected from a Yes-man to understand what voicing the opinion about something plain and simple didn´t get the treatment it deserved means. Put me on the ignore list if you don´t like to read my statements kid.
Well said Ivotas.
Anyways, 309 is on Dailymotion.com if anybody doesn't feel like waiting for torrents to finish.
I suppose I can finally make that Luffy VS Lucci AMV I've been patiently been waiting on for like a year now.
Here is a pretty good quality fullscreen RAW with the correct aspect ratio:

http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3687326
finally saw it.
ok, FINALLY saw it.
definetly the 2nd best ep ever.
when i saw just the jet gatrling gun, it was awesome, but it really only hits you if you watch the whole ep.
2nd best ep ever, in my opinion. it's really more like a mini movie, tho it's hard to explain. it just felt more like a super awesome movie finale then a normal episode.
2nd best fight ending/ep yet,. sorry, gomu storm against the croc was a LITTLE bit better.
Just saw the episode subbed on stormberry.tv. Good episode all around. Lucci's defeat was extremely close to the epicness of Crocodile's defeat. As soon as this gets a better sub, I'm putting the entire fight on DVD.
on the top 5 list for sure
rust df user was cool and gomu gomu jet gg was killer. love the music at the end.
310**"Companion, Approaches from the Sea! Straw Hat Crew's Strongest Bonds"**
Why nobody talks about Usopp words to Luffy ?? They're not part of the episode ?? It's just (to me) one of the best scenes !
well most of us already knew the words, because it already happened in the manga
but ye it was a really touching moment for sure
actually the whole episode was full of emotions :P
Thank you vlad Dracul ! And so I wonder : the episode 310 is the last on Enies Lobby ?
Why nobody talks about Usopp words to Luffy ?? They're not part of the episode ?? It's just (to me) one of the best scenes !
Usopp is definitely there motivating Luffy and insulting Lucci and it seemed very well done. It's just that Jet Gatling steals the show
I'm not sure if I can fault the art, since the raw seems to have been altered for widescreen and fairly low quality. The captain fights still seemed overly easy, except the rather surprising turn of events with the rust DF captain actually nearly killing Zoro, who is saved by USOPP of all people
Definitely one of the series' best episodes. The Rust-Rust Captain was the shit fighting Zoro and Usopp saves him. Awesome overall!
Franky was WRONG for doing the bouncy ball captain like that!
I LOVED it!
! what happened to to those guys that were dodging ussops projectiles? did they get hit by lucchi's rankyaku?
@ mygoatheflea, radical jack
i dont think that you need to spoiler tag your posts,
because it has already happened in the anime
oh and radical jack it is true that they got KO'ed by lucci's rankyaku
@ emilio
! most properly last episode inside enies lobby, yeh
or maybe another episode will follow on that with the last scene inside enies lobby
That episode was absolutely fucking beautiful.
I can't wait to watch a High-Def subbed version of it.
So amazing. Second only to Gomu Gomu Storm. I just might change my opinion once I see it HD and subbed.
@Gerchak:
That episode was absolutely fucking beautiful.
I can't wait to watch a High-Def subbed version of it.

Saiyaman's RAW out : http://bt.saiyaman.info/
Does anyone know if Saiyaman is a higher-quality FS raw or a WS?
Awesome episode, I am speechless in how well this was handled. Definetly in my top 5 episodes.
The only problem I had was once again Toei gets rid of the Luffy moving so fast he is like warping thing. Like with when Blueno was coming out of the air door to turn Gear 2 Luffy's body into a door, in the manga he looked like he dissapeared out of his way and appeared behind him. But in the anime it looked as if he just leaped back in normal speed. This is what I am talking about with this episode-
http://groups.msn.com/OnePieceMangav-2/chapter427.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=9181
Then the next scene- http://groups.msn.com/OnePieceMangav-2/chapter427.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=9182
As if Luffy got hit by the Roku Ou Gun, and right after he did, he came behind Lucci. Instead of the anime where he let Luffy down, and started walking past him, and Luffy just did not fall down. Maybe its me just nitpicking, but its one of the most badass things I found in Gear 2.
Still a fantastic episode, only a TINY bit below Storm against Croc.
That was spectacular. The Jet Gatling scene was by far one of the best things I've ever seen ever. Even though the Croc fight had New World Symphony going for it, the finale for this fight was still miles above it. Definitely my new favorite moment in this series.
They definitely did Jet Gatling justice
Deep inside I wish they'd use a more "epic" kinda of music for that part, but I'm more than happy with whatever we have now.
This is also the reason I liked the part Usopp motivating Luffy immensely: the BGM is "Luffy vs Ratchet round 1" from Movie 7 and imo one of the best OP BGMs(along w/ "Overtaken" and "Luffy's fierce attack"), when Luffy yells "A ta ri ma e da!!!"(Of course I will), it just work perfectly with the music and gave me goosebumps, major kudos to the CV.
