Alabasta Saga, episode 18: A Farewell to Vivi! Welcome Robin to the Crew!

Holy cow! Curtis has finally gotten to officially welcoming Robin to the crew! I mean, that opening had already spoiled it, so I think it lost any shock value it may have had, but still. We say goodbye to both Vivi and Mr. 2 Bon Clay, and both scenes hit us emotionally! The 46th overall episode of our One Piece podcast is available now! http://kingofthewhatpod.libsyn.com/alabasta-saga-episode-18-a-farewell-to-vivi-welcome-robin-to-the-crew

As may be expected from a wrap up episode, when the future can literally hold just about anything, we also discuss predictions. Curtis ponders what other crew members we may get on the Straw Hats ship, as well as the consequences of Crocodile’s demotion from the Warlords of the Sea.

Alabasta Saga, episode 14: The Battle For Alabasta Begins! Luffy Vs. Crocodile in the Desert!

Man, someday I’ll be better about posting on Tumblr. I’m so sorry for any of our fans that follow us on this platform. I promise we are alive and well! Luffy on the other hand... he wasn’t doing so hot in this episode of the podcast. http://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/id/8118617

We discuss the animals of One Piece, strange devil fruit theories, using punches to try and stop a man made of sand, why ducks are the best friend you’ll ever have, and Smoker’s big plan! Tune in as we fly into the climax of the Alabasta Saga, and the battle begins! Give us a listen if you like and, as always, please share with anyone you think might appreciate our content.

So... we know Todoroki’s favorite food is Soba noodles, right? And he prefers the traditional layout of japanese rooms. And as of One Piece Chapter 926...

Sanji has gone undercover as Sangoro, the Soba noodle chef in Wano, a country meant to mirror traditional Japan. Someone please draw a cross over with Todoroki being served noodles. Bonus points if Luffy somehow runs into him and comments on the eye scar which is awfully similar to Sabo’s

Alabasta Saga, episode 6: Scaling the Drum Mountain! The Story of a Zany Quack Doctor!

This week’s episode introduces one of my favorite parental figures in One Piece, Dr. Hiruluk. As @ara-kina​ mentions in the cold opening, he truly does embody the ideals of the “Romance“ from the “Romance Dawn“ in One Piece. He’s goofy, he has a cartoonishly good heart, he’s a great dad, and he gives one of the most impactful speeches in the entire series. If you only listen to some of our episodes, or can only watch some of the One Piece anime, please watch drum island, mostly for him but also a bit for Dr. Kureha, and Zoro has some funny moments too.

I’m not going to disagree with any of this. But some other personal highlights: Luffy telling Big Mom *while in fucking chains* “Aren’t YOU getting a bit full of yourself” to a goddanged Yonko? Nami’s “watch out, there’s a storm coming” is one of the best lines from Enies Lobby, but Sanji is just pure badass in this arc. Yes, Luffy had a good fight. Sogeking’s intro and sniping the marines from a bajillion miles away and that speech to Luffy were great. Zoro’s transformation was great. But lemme tell you: Sanji’s “I refuse to fight a woman” took some courage, especially with people’s lives on the line. The “Cooking is a gift from the gods, spices are a gift from the Devil, guess I was too spicy for you” line will be with me *forever*. Seeing through Jabra’s lies, “Insulting a woman gets me heated up” right before busting out Diable Jambe, the “You do what you can that I can’t do and I’ll do what I can that you can’t.” Sanji is my favorite straw hat and this. This was the arc where that was cemented. My favorite bit from the short time skip stories was Ivankov just shrugging off Diable Jambe like it was nothing. “You can set your foot on fire and burn through your enemy’s defenses? But have you tried Haki, son?”

the Strawhats and being the real MVP of an arc

shellstown, buggy, that wierd chestman, etc.: nami. given insane amount of chaotic dumbass energy zoro and luffy generate together can you imagine what would have happened if it wasn’t for her?? she kept those two idiots alive singlehandedly. also when luffy was gonna wake zoro up to discover an island she told him to let the poor guy sleep after almost bleeding out. what a soft girl.

baratie: sanji, for giving gin food. mihawk, don krieg and marine drama whomst, we stan one soft hearted boy. meanwhile, when he pours wine to that lady and then turns to fullbody with a full deadpan and says “pour it yourself” is just absolutely fucking hilarious.

arlong park: luffy, obviously, but that fact the zoro pulled though the full drama while he was still bleeding from his encounter with mihawk and still found the time to bitchily sit on arlong’s throne after beating the fishmen definitely deserves a honorable mention.

whiskey peak: zoro. killing that 100 bounty hunters under the full moon light, while the others are asleep? sexy.

little garden: sanji. while everyone was busy almost dying he achieved more with a phone call than all of the others combined. somehow doesn’t get exposed despite opening with the “shitty restaurant” line. also gets the eternal pose to alabasta.

drum island: luffy. climbing that mountain in the blizzard with nami tied to his back and sanji hanging from between his teeth like a kitten? and he also saved the baby monsterbunny’s mom? do i need to say more?

alabasta: it’s a tie between luffy and sanji, honestly. like sure, luffy died like 3 times for beating crocodile but the amount of mr princing sanji did there dealt just as much mental damage and is just too iconic to dismiss.

skypiea: luffy. finds sky eminem, beats up sky eminem. who’s the real slim shady now.

navarone/g-8: robin. while everyone is busy panicking or getting into cooking competitions, she just dresses up as that inspector, and walks straight to the head of the fortress, like the boss she is. gets usopp to zoro, triggers the rise of Con D. Oriano, the offical 7.5th strawhat who’s probably already waiting for them at Raftel. steals the fortress plans. foxy arc? i don’t know her. 

water 7: sanji. while everyone was busy running around in town sanji just went to the train station, found the train, got on the train like a fucking MAN. simply disconnects a traincar full of agents instead of fighting them like a moron would. starting to see a pattern here.

enies lobby: gear 2nd and 3rd. asura. the rise of sogeking. diable jamble. the clima tact. monster point. honestly they all pulled their weight here so much that it’d be tie between everyone if not for the Going Merry. we’re not talking about her. ever.

thriller bark: honestly if you didn’t fall in love with zoro at this point regardless of identity or sexual orientation idk what to tell you.

sabaody: kuma. sure, he broke everyone’s heart but he saved ther asses again, not the first nor last time. he wins this round. may you get a happy ending, bearman.

impel down: bon chan™. shouting for hours, rooting for luffy while he was suffering? saving him from the wolves? stayig behind to open the gates? shit man. he deserves it all. for alabasta too. if not for him, ivankov would get the prize though.

marineford: it was gonna be a tie because 1) everyone worked their ass off to save Ace, LUFFY especially, but people like crocodile and mr. 3 did their ample part too 2) everyone worked their assas off to SAVE luffy like. Ivankov and Jinbei saved him a hundred times each, but really, everyone helped, from croci through buggy(!!!) to law, not to mention the whitebeard pirates and shanks. but in the end it has to be jinbei for the combined impel down-marineford efforts. the way he fucking tore that door from its hinges with magellan up his ass and picked croci and mr. 1 up to steal a warship. he carried luffy even when injured. pulled him outta the water. called his whale buddies. talked sense into him. an absolute fucking champ. 

sabaody 2: brook. while everyone subtly sneaks back to sabaody and tires to stay out of trouble, he organises his final concert there, gets on stage, announces to the whole world that they’re back and luffy will be pirate king, sings one last song and fucks off through a hole in the roof. an absolute madman. I’ll neve quit talking about this.

gyojin island: idk, honestly, they were a hot mess here, starting with sanji. and sure, zoro cut the main villian 5 minutes in but he also took the king and half the palace as a hostage on accident?? honey, what? meanwhile nami just shrugged and was like, okay if we’re doing that let’s add a billion berry to the demands too?? so it’d be robin, for not messing things up more. she found the poneglyph. read the poneglyph! good gal! but in the end it still has to be luffy for that sexy power move™ phone call, claiming fishman island. picking a fight with a yonko before even poperly crossing the red line? iconic. other supernovas gtfo. 

punk hazard: nami for being the only one who geniunely gave a fuck about the kids, and catching the runaways at the end. zoro telling luffy to get a grip was cool too, though.

dressrosa: the rise of god usopp. honestly, he inspired this post. the way he knocked out sugar twice. awakened his haki. consumed the Grape. smashed his face. became god. people can only dream of being this cool.

zou: who the fuck cares about the strawhat drama when the minks invented no snitchin’ here??  though the fact that sanji (de)escalated a wedding invitation to a full-blown hostage situation is amazing

whole cake island: it’s a tie between brook and jinbei. the way brook got the poneglyph like it was nothing, unknowingly but directly channeling ellen’s “what, like it’s hard” energy from legally blonde. the way he still picked a fight with big mom to cover it up, that’s the definition of ride or die, ladies and gentlemen. the way he called her young lady. the way he broke that picture with an elegant swing of the hammer. the way, after she appeared on the ship, swinging a sword, he asked her to show him her panties. that what i call a fucking commitment to a line. meanwhile jinbei broke luffy and nami out of prison, he made the alliance with bege possible, looked big mom dead in the eye and told her that why would he be afraid of a “mere yonko” as part of the future pirate kings crew, saved the ship 65692 times and there was the thing with the sonar slugs too. tldr the two eldest members fucking rocked this arc.
