I don’t know why Jimbei thinks that he can stand in the way of the future Fifth Emperor of the Sea. Just step off while Luffy kicks Hordy’s ass in higher quality than the last time. Luffy is the man that saves Fish-Man Island, but don’t get it twisted. HE’S NOT A HERO, HE’S A PIRATE. That’s why when Luffy has meat, he doesn’t share. His meat is HIS (if you know what I’m referencing, you’re a real one).
Hordy and his lackeys really think they’re something not knowing what’s about to come next. Speaking of Hordy, he’s getting really desperate with those Energy Steroids thinking that’ll make a difference, when after Luffy kicks his ass he loses all that muscle and becomes old and frail, and he’s only 30 (refer to Episode 12 to get a reference of the ages of Koala, Jimbei, Arlong, and Hordy).
Also Vander Decken IX, that haircut is complete TRASH my dude. You just killed any inkling of a chance you had with Shirahoshi (not that it was high to begin with). Your hair is already garbage, so you might as well cut it all off.
The Neptune Brothers had a clean entrance and clapped some cheeks, but it’s not enough, hence why the Straw Hat is coming. Is he an enemy or a foe, only you can decide that.
Great episode 4/5
first half was better than the second half which felt like filler. These scrub ass commanders are so underwhelming. Jimbei and Luffy scene about optics was great.
Bro, this episode cover 3 chapters but it doesn't feel anything happened (besides reaching the fighiting stage), I can't imagine watching this in 3 episodes, it's a torture.
This episode was alright. I was hoping they would show how Jinbei beat Luffy but alas we only got the aftermath of it. Also, Zoro really did a number on Hody huh, considering how many pills he had to take in order to not feel any more pain.
Talk about a strong drug abuse with Hody and his crew.
But his crew is so forgettable. I only remember Hody and the octopus guy.
So did Jinbe manage to defeat Luffy and the others? Hell naw right
Brook's new form gets revealed. Hody becomes overpowered, and finally the 3 brothers get to show some power.
Overall, a good episode. Just not my favorite, because of how forgettable all of Hody's crew is T_T
