No I didnt put a fun title cuz IDK why. Luffy has finally infiltrated Impel Down to rescue his brother Ace. Chaos is quickly unfolding as we run into some familiar faces en route to the bottom floor. Can Luffy make it in time to save Ace!?! Guess we will have to find out. Cuz we have no other option. Cuz this is a One Piece Review Podcast. #NotMyMVPiece Next Week: Episodes 432-436

After a brief hiatus, we are back and raring to go!! Perfect time for a little break because we are checking in on the rest of the crew this week. Some interesting info comes in that could be huge in the long run. OR it could be nothing because Oda do what Oda do. Boa and Luffy finally arrive at Impel down, but there are more guests there than originally expected! Next Week: Episodes 423-425, 430-431 Episodes 426-429

Luffy goes all out in these episodes both physically an emotionally. We get to see more of his character than we have in a while and it really makes for some great entertainment. Not only does he save his new friends, but he develops a close relationship with a new pirate crew that will be a strong ally for the Straw Hats going forward. Finally, he finds out the situation that his brother is in and with all odds stacked against him, he charges forward to the backyard of the world government once again! Next Week: Episodes 418-422 Episode 421 is partial filler.

We are back this week following along with our favorite straw hat boy. He meets a new friend but he is quickly targeted by the ruler of the island Boa Hancock. She is also the last warlord that we have been waiting on in our watch through so far. Luffy feels determined to get out of this and save his friend, but Hancock has other plans for him. Next Week: 413-417

For a couple weeks now, the fallout has been building after Luffy knocked the teeth out of a celestial dragon. It's here. Admiral Kizaru has arrived on scene with vegapunks new science project and a spunky Captain of the science division. Rayleigh does Rayleigh things, but it goes from bad to worse when a Warlord decides to join the party as well. The crew faces their biggest challenge yet, and they are far from up to it. Next Week: Episodes 408-412 Episodes 406 and 407 are filler

Chaos begins to unfold after Luffy's hit felt across Sabaody. A fight breaks out early but also finishes early thanks to the arrival of the legendary Dark King Silvers Rayleigh. We finally get to see 2 of the top members of the Worst Generation in action along side Luffy, but the victory is short lived with the arrival of one of the 7 Warlords. The straw hats are able to find some temporary sanctuary, but now they have to prepare for the arrival of Admiral Kizaru while still ignorant to the presence of the warlord as well. Next Week: Episodes 401-405

We are finally getting the opportunity to explore Sabaody, but unfortunately things are not as fun on the clump of trees as they seem. Oda dives hard into this arc, tackling some real world issues. We also get to meet some pretty intriguing characters and it will be interesting to see how they fit into the story going forward. Next Week: 397-400

We have officially arrived to the half way point of the grand line. The crew is still bound for fishman island, however getting to the bottom of the ocean is proving to be a difficult task. We make a pit stop to help out some new friends and an old friend before hitting the Sabaody Archipelago and prepping for the Sunny's deep dive to the bottom of the red line. Next Week: Episodes 391-396

It is time to finish up the Thriller Bark Arc. We review Thriller Bark as a whole and dive deeper into the characters as a whole. This one was tricky but hey we worked our way through it! Looking forward to moving on to the next location. Derek is taking over episode counts over the next couple months so some of the episodes may not be the standard 5 episodes we are used to. Next week, we have 6 episodes!!! Next WeekL 385-390

The crew is back this week to bring you a review of one of Zoro's most iconic moments in all of One Piece. Not only that, but we are diving more into Brook and his backstory with Laboon. Emotions are high along with the laughs. We look forward to being back next week to wrap up the Thriller Bark Arc!!! Next Week: Episodes 380-381
