      I figure I might as well make the thread now before I go to bed, as there's no guarantee that I'll be awake when this airs.

      Anyway, in around six hours from now a new anime special will air, being a remake of the Arlong arc, the arc that for many was the first one to show that One Piece could truly pack the emotional and storytelling punches that it's known for today. It's been twelve years since the original airing, and thirteen since it came out in print.
      Title: Episode of Nami: A Navigator's Tears and the Bonds of Fellowships
      Chapters Covered: 69-95
      New Characters: None I would imagine
      Animation Director: Yukiko Nakatani (****)
      Time: 8:00AM EST

        Unbelievably hyped for this, hopefully won't disappoint. Will be the best thing OP Anime related this year besides perhaps Film Z.

          Hopefully a fan sub version will be online shortly after the airing,like the normal episodes,because I really can't wait for this!

            How long will that special be when it covers so many chapters? If it's gonna be anything like that recap movie of the Alabasta arc, it's gonna suck big time.

              It's a two-hour special and can't be compared to an Alabasta recap movie since the Arlong arc was significantly shorter.

                It's going to be 2 hours long and compared Alabasta's 63 chapters, the Arlong arc is only 27, so I think it will work fairly well. Drum was 25 chapters and that made a pretty good movie. Plus there are some dragging parts, like Luffy being stuck, which can be made shorter. Really looking forward to this!

                  Is it confirmed for 2 hours (120 minutes) of running time, or just a 2 hour time slot? Because if there's ads throughout the 2 hour time slot, it may well be only 90 minutes in actual running time.

                          Its highly unlikely that we will get a subbed version soon after it airs but probably not too long after. The good thing about it being fan subbed is that we'll get to see it in HD too, unlike Funimation's low def simul casts

                                            It's in an hour, let's hope one of the streams will switch to it then.

                                              It's in an hour, let's hope one of the streams will switch to it then.

                                              The stream I linked is on fujitv. Just another program is on at the moment.

                                                I have to leave at 1:30, drat. Still a perfect time if I knew Japanese to get a sneaky little look, (I know a bit and the whole story arc so It shouldn't be that hard to figure out).

                                                  I haven't got an high interest in the special, but it doesn't hurt to take a look 👅

                                                    I plan to watch the stream as I'm expecting the special to be really good and I don't feel like waiting for fansubs to see how well it's done.

                                                    But I'm sitting here with the stream on (the second one posted) watching some show that's on before OP and my god Japanese TV is weird.

                                                      It's my first time watching OP via a livestream. It's so weird for me to watch OP in the evening. I think the current show is ending.

                                                        It's pretty interesting in my opinion. Weird, but interesting. Better than anything I've seen on TV over here…

                                                        It's in 20 minutes approximately, right?

                                                            Yeah, it tends to be two brands of weird.

                                                            1. lol that's weird, I wish we had this kinda stuff on TV here sometimes

                                                            2. this is weird and I feel alienated, wtf do these people smoke all day, do the TV viewers there even like this

                                                            It should start in 5ish minutes if the special starts right at 5AM Pacific Time (adjust to your time zone). inb4rolling blackouts in Japan

                                                                                    Second is the pacing is real fast and is flying through the content without hold long enough on particular scenes to make us the audience feel connected to the story.

                                                                                    I hope my opinion changes when I re-watch this latter with subs but right now I'm not all that impressed. This is one of my favourite arcs, so I can't wait to watch luffy vs arlong fight.
