      Fun fact: the last time all of the Straw Hats were together in one spot was chapter/episode 701/630, 105/125 chapters/episodes and two/three years ago.

      ! And that separation streak is just going to keep getting longer and longer…

            I'm 100% sure they did this shot on purpose:

              So I loved Usopp trying to puppet Zoro and getting the name of his attack wrong. I had forgotten that happened.

                  I'm loving these episodes, the quality has been excellent. Did they get a bigger budget or something?

                    Also they added the touch with usopp mispronouncing zoro's attack lol

                    This was another great episode, I know we only covered one chapter but it felt like we covered more with how good the pacing felt

                    Excellent use of filler also

                    Chapter 437 Discussion after franky decides to join the Strawhats:

                    So who think Usopp is inside that duffelbag?

                      Nothing has changed. We have the same directors & animators using their same animation styles. Every time there's a nice episode everyone acts like their memories have been erased or something lol. Ito, Takara, & Isoichi always produce quality episodes. Kawamura sometimes does as well & this just so happens to be one of them. Animators like Shida & Tomita regularly work on the series & always come through. I think the only difference is that these guys are finally being used back to back which makes it seem like the quality has increased. Yes the filler arc looked mediocre, but Zou was the main priority so there was no reason to bother making it look good at Zou's expense.

                        Oh my! A surprise Shida cut. That was really good. It reminded me of the cut he did in Sabaody with Luffy on the flying fish.

                        Also, I've been waiting to see this animated. Carrot ❤

                          I am really loving the quality Toei is putting in lately! This apparent new standard for higher quality episodes has been refreshing! ​Combined with the new opening, eye catchers, it feels like a completely different series than it was just 10 episodes ago!

                          One of the many things One Piece anime has always been lacking is inspiration, but Zou in these last 3 episodes have been the most inspired One Piece has ever been! I noticed the changing artstyles within the same episodes in the Zou arc, while some may say that's bad, I say it's a good thing! Being inconsistent allows these animators to have artistic freedoms, which allows them to better describe an aesthetic. Almost every scene has been displaying some unique aesthetic that really makes every scene "pop". Whether it's fluid frames to describe action scene, animated character movements to achieve comedy, beautiful skies and backgrounds, detailed faces to describe emotional expression, every scene has something beautiful about it! It really appears that the animators worked on these scenes not because their employers told them to, but because they genuinely cared about it!

                          These last 3 inconsistent episodes have been beautiful works by Toei!

                            The first few minutes of the episode, especially when Luffy got caught in the rainruption, was excellent. Nice Luffy faces throughout.

                              The flood scene was out of this world.

                                  Yup, that he did. Does anyone know if Shida does the in-betweens for his animation along with key animation?

                                    I like how sleek the shark looks like his from a western cartoon.

                                        Good episode. Hoping the battle against Big Mom Pirates next week is action-packed.

                                          I totally don't recall Luffy nearly drowning. Or Ussop using Zoro as a puppet. But man this was a really good episode. It's nice seeing particular staff being used frequently.

                                            Toei seems to be actually giving a damn lately, it's not normal for anime episodes to genuinely decent one after another.

                                            I'm impressed.

                                              I was a little surprised to see how good this episode generally looked outside of a few quick wonky shots given that Deguchi was at the very top of the animator list. My little pre-episode blurb should've referenced the character tournament, since I can see a number of the (anime exclusive) Carrot-related footage making its way into campaigns for the championship match.

                                                I like how sleek the shark looks like his from a western cartoon.

                                                Man, I love that entire sequence.

                                                  A good episode always makes me want to repeat after Luffy when he shout, "Kaizoku ou ni, ore wa naru!"
                                                  And this episode made me do that.

                                                  send and shout from : Wingstop

                                                  Yes we can

                                                    The quality now is a lot better than episodes of Dressrosa, I hope that they keep this quality in Zou's and Totto Land's arc. The flashback where Jacks appear for first time will be amazing.

                                                      Well 756 looks like it may break the trend of the quality bump going by the preview. But then again 755 looked a lot better than its preview suggested so we'll see.

                                                        Man, and now we enter a seven to eight week flashback.

                                                        It's funny how the animation always improves at the beginning of the arc to show off the new location, then slowly turns to shit over the course of the arc, only to ramp back up for the final fight. Dressrosa was bad because the middle was so long and they only ever ramped it up in the middle for flashbacks and brief scenes.

                                                              Maybe the awful (but short) filler arc we just got before Zou makes people think the anime was in a long string of terrible episodes, which is not accurate.
                                                              Anyway, three such nicely done episodes in a row really is a great feat for a long running series.
