One Piece Episode 293 UNCUT REACTION!

Comments

"what strength" is crazy lol....you see what nami be doing to the screw lol 😂

Allen Turner

I also love fairy tale I feel it gets a bad wrap (rightfully so in some cases) but It’s still in my top favorite anime. It’s got some of my favorite characters and a really shocking amount of great emotional moments. Also it’s just so dumb and it knows that about its self and leans into it which I really respect. Like (spoilers) how they manage to survive agnologia the first time on the island is one of my favorite things ever. The fact that they survived getting murdered by a super dragon by holding hands and friendshipping their way through it is so fairytale and so fucking funny it’s what sealed my love for the show the fact that it just did that without any shame is just perfect.

Kalifa took one of the boys down and now she just playing around testing her powers with nami

NickO

Nami's comment about thinking like a middle-aged man always cracks me up.

EOussama

lmao

BOLDcast

Really on brand for Spandam to get devil fruits and them end up being stuff like soap and giraffe.

FoxfireEspresso

That Gilroy dude needs his keyboard privileges removed XD

ChocoBoshi

People complaining about Nami x Kalifa fights when the context is more important. The number of stories where the smartest wins against a strong opponent are everywhere. It’s nothing new. Defending the context does not mean I’m a Oda baby. Seriously resulting to insults now?

CypressxSG

I don’t think we are. Take off the shades man

CypressxSG

Me. I'm not a hive mind and I like to think critically about stories

Matthew Gilroy

We need a Frieren in every anime

Gino

Some must use more "imo" rather than presenting their pov as the only truth imo. Funny to me that lot of you seems to find illogical the nami/kalifa fight, but then please explain me how is it logical that Luffy has beaten Croco with basically 3 punches? Cause even without fighting him he could have easilly kill Luffy, Robin and Cobra by leaving and drown the place into sands. Oda clearly nerfed Croco way more than Kalifa IMO. Kalifa has only been flexing on galley la shiprwrights (and not the big ones) and they are clearly below basic marine level which is already really really low.. After that we saw from Chapapa boy that she is the weakest of the CP9. That being said, i'm agree than Kalifa would have been more dangerous if she had used more the six power than her devil fruit but I intrepret it more with Kalifa underesmating Nami (like many here) than Oda nerfing her, but once again only my opinion. The whip is a good example for me, ok it can cause a lot of damage but i can definitevely see nami blocking attack with the clima tact and is this whip conduct electricity ? Cause if yes then it's game over. For me all I see is just Nami developping her capabilities against a hard matchup for her like all SH in this arc. And lot of nitpicking too lol

Gaetan

Funny thing is that I bet she would like Fairy Tail too

Lūthér Hölâyèãhmé

Khalifa with her whip would kill Nami instantly

Photonium123

Are we watching the same show?? Kalifa wasn't always shown as a loony😂. Stop being an Oda angel🤡

Matthew Gilroy

Yes, Chopper's monster form is crazy

Jack Shadow

It's really nice to see their reaction transition from the very beginning of the live action show, the change is definitely there

Guy Buddy

really liking how lindsay is getting hyped for one piece, I can feel her excitement through the screen

R

Regarding Kalifa being Nerf? She’s always been shown as a loony. Six powers? How many Nami fights do you have to see to understand that Nami is weak but one of the smartest characters of One piece

CypressxSG

the next fights are gonna be fire

Baronizer

Kaku is still a threat and the supposed ‘nerfing’ is not out of nowhere. Devil fruit is a huge power up to those people who know how to use it. Not to people who just ate it. Its even shown to the Live action the young luffy learning how to use his power. And Kaku’s is learning very fast. Carson saying Kaku is nerf does not mean he is nerfed. I think you’re blinded by hate that you’re forgetting some details. The only thing that is ‘nerfing’ Kaku is his pride and how much he is a show off. He likes to showcase his tricks even the tricks he does not have complete control 😂

CypressxSG

And this is not something that ONE Piece always does. Mr 1 was a threat from start to finish. Same with Mr 2 Bon Clay. This is a HUGE problem with this arc if I'm being honest

Matthew Gilroy

Kaku and wolf guy are the only ones left

CypressxSG

Lol the last match ups are very obvious by now

CypressxSG

Lol the last match up is very obvious by now

CypressxSG

So far they've nerfed Kaku and especially Kalifa by giving them gimmicky devil fruits and not using the Six powers to their full advantage. Their portrayal in Water 7 was far more menacing. They felt like killers

Matthew Gilroy

Get rid of that comment. Not all of these matchups have been revealed yet to Carson and Lindsay

Matthew Gilroy

The visible Spandam fatigue is real 🤣

L.Joy

Kalifa has always been a goofball, she just been playing it straight.

Zannen Da

Nerfing characters? I don’t see one.

CypressxSG

Thats why I said it’s fine. Except for the KakuxZoro and LuffyxLucci fight those are fire. Which is most of the fights in One piece. These 2 characters always have the best choreographies. And like a said I prefer the context/stories around the fight for ex: NamixKalifa both uses their sexually but Nami is smarter SanjixWolf guy. (i forgot the name) Sanji has principles vs wolf guy is a dirty trickster ChopperxKumadori the japanese guy who uses refined poems and always acts righteous in trying to do Seppuku but is actually a coward vs Chopper’s brave decision to take the 3rd rumble ball and become his worst nightmare FrankyxBall guy 😂 who always spills the beans and betray his friends vs Franky who would never ever betray his people

CypressxSG

Oh and to clarify, Water 7 >> Enies Lobby. It does everything better, ESPECIALLY when it comes to storytelling

Matthew Gilroy

I actually think the shonen fans that want to only see fights probably consider Enies Lobby one of the best One Piece arcs. If you value story over fights then you know (especially on a rewatch like me) that this arc has problems, and has a lot of issues that I thought Oda had left behind before Skypeia. Most of the story behind these fights are non-existent. The strawhats and fighting CP9 because they want to save Robin. That's great and all because Robin's flashback was good, but is very basic shonen storytelling. Also, like Carson mentioned most of CP9 has been nerfed or their character completely changed for a cheap gag. I like Skypeia more because it is non-typical and demands the audience to pick our brains and read between the lines. Oda was a more skilled storyteller during that time I'm afraid

Matthew Gilroy

I really do not understand Skypiea hate train. But comparing this two Saga is like making siblings fight 😂 I like them both. Both Saga are important 1000 of eps later. Story telling wise. I love the sense of adventure and freedom I felt during Skypiea. I watch it during my elementary days like what 20 years ago WTF. 😂😂 Water 7/Enies lobby killed me. But being very young and innocent 😂 I did not appreciate/understand some of the important nuances of the story until I rewatch it in my late teens. Just dropping by to say don’t fight over this. Both have pros and cons as all of the other saga.

CypressxSG

Honestly for me the fights are fine. I mean compared to Naruto/Bleach. Especially the fights from the old episodes. The context/story around the fights are more important to me 🥰🥰 🤔 I think this is the reason why shounen fans who only want to see fights hates One piece. It blinds people from appreciating a good story. This is the same issue with Tensura/Slime nowadays and it is disappointing 😒😒😒

CypressxSG

We've been in Enies Lobby for 30+ episodes. Robin flashback (NOT better than Noland and Calgara flashback btw), Gear 2 showcase, and Chopper fight were great, but tell me something else that has really stood out. You better not say Sodom and Gomorrah sacrifice😂

Matthew Gilroy

"Enies Lobby clears Skypiea"💀. You are delusional🤡. Skypiea doesn't assassinate characters and needlessly nerf them, which is something Enies Lobby is guilty of (Kaku and Kalifa). I cared more for the Shandians than I did for the Galley la people and Franky Family. Worst part of Skypeia was Ball Ordeal but you people act like its the worst thing to grace Shonen Jump. Hattori was an actual threat, introduced us to Mantra and could use it effectively. Way better fight than Sea Train fights (Noodle guy and Nero for example) and Enies Lobby filler antagonists like Justice guys

Matthew Gilroy

Brother I don't like Skypeia slander either but this has got to be one of the worst takes i've read in my life. Enies Lobby absolutely clears Skypeia and it's not even CLOSE. The moment to moment plot of Enies Lobby is infinitely more interesting and engaging than 99% of Skypeia, that fact is exactly why it can have more padding and recap and STILL feel like an S tier arc. It's not bias it's just that good. Again, to reiterate, I think Skypeia is easily an A tier arc

Michael DeArmas

This Enies Lobby bias needs to stop. It's basic shonen storytelling done well, but Skypiea actually demands the watcher to pick their brains a bit. It negs I'm afraid

Matthew Gilroy

Leave me with that BS. Don't act like outside of Robin's flashback and just now recently with Chopper and Franky's fight that Enies Lobby hasn't been filled with unnecessary content (which is a problem in the manga AS WELL). Did we really need to spend episodes on Sodom and Gomorrah deaths, the stupid Justice guys, and Luffy beating up random marines for episodes😂💀

Matthew Gilroy

Yeah but realistically those are all stuff you can skip, like, the actual episode is 10 minutes long or smtg. I rather have that than 23 minutes of exploring the stomach of a snake

pedro I.S

Didn't one of these episodes literally start at 9 mins lmaoo💀

Matthew Gilroy

Replaying scenes in the middle of the episode, episodes starting at the 6 minute mark after long ass recaps. Some of you like to bash on Skypiea but Skypeia never had this shit

Matthew Gilroy

The bath scene is an interesting bit for people that remember that in the day when these episodes aired. But it created quite the storm amongst the communities and nothing like it was ever done in shonen before censorship, Taking a bath in the middle of a fight. Which to japanese audiences it was nothing new because it was shown in many super sentai shows and toku works of the day, but it was a strange concept for us westerners. I still remember because of culture sensibilities, they removed one paticular scene with the pink ranger in power rangers were she was taken a bath and got out of the tub naked to battle her foe well trying to put her clothes on and using a towel to dodge and block his attacks. Classic Japanese trope.

Artemis

Enel would obliterate CP9

Matthew Gilroy

They would need to react to it seperately & they got other shows to watch too, it is not really a priority🤷🏾‍♂️

Everytime spandam is on screen i wish there was a way to tell anime characters kys

fia

Yeah, I totally agree that Kalifa isn't taking Nami seriously in this episode. That just isn't a very satisfying reason for someone to win a fight so I didn't make that a main point in my post. I feel like the argument could be made about Mrs. Double Finger as well and if that's the main reason you cite for why Nami wins her fights then they don't feel as deserved in my opinion. I definitely credit Nami's wits over her "underestimateability", she spent 8 years alone at sea ripping off pirates, she's clever and can handle herself more than I think some fans give her credit for. She for sure plays into the "helpless woman" thing on purpose as well which boosts her "underestimateability" in a way that I think is more creditable as a skill rather than just a trait.

ChocoBoshi

Crunchyroll doesnt have all the openings because of copyright. they will have “we are” for a while

fia

Yeah it seemed to me that Kalifa wasn't taking Nami seriously

Lūthér Hölâyèãhmé

Yep The Fact she defeated Sanji so easily would definitely convince her that this fight will be easy so she didn't take her seriously Kalifa also mentions that her real concern is the weapon and not Nami which is an underestimation that might bite her back

Sanji Joestar

Totally agree with you guys when it comes to Kalifa seemingly being nerfed in her fight against Nami. You are giving totally fair criticism and I'm not trying to detract from that, I just want to add some of the things that I take into consideration as well. Kalifa, although more stoic, *is* a goofy character. Since her introduction she has been shown to be a sort of quirky character who comes off as someone who always knows what they are doing when in reality she is just more reserved than other goofy characters. She has back and fourths with Paulie about her attire, she flips between being really nice to Iceberg and resorting to full on violence in a matter of seconds, she says that basically anything that Spandam says is sexual harassment (fair). In this episode we even see her give away that Nami guess her powers right as well as making a sheep out of her bubbles for no real reason. All this to say, her gaining powers and then making the decision to go all in with them in a fight which she perceives to be a sure win, since she just beat the 3rd strongest combatant on Nami's crew with ease (I know she doesn't know Sanji is 3rd strongest but still), doesn't seem out of the question for her. Now moving on to Nami's combat potential. We know for a fact that Nami's physical damage output potential is low, she isn't going to be able to punch though any walls or anything like that. But, as has been shown throughout the story, she is very smart. She stole Kumadori's key without him noticing and we know he is relatively strong and quick. Aside from the Rankyaku in Icebergs building she has consistently dodged attacks from capable combatants. All this to say that Nami, while not a combatant in the same way Luffy, Zoro and Sanji are, has always been someone who is smart when it comes to strategy. The way I look at Kalifa in relation to Nami is that Kalifa outmatches Nami physically by a wide margin while Nami outmatches Kalifa strategically by an equal margin. So, whereas the fight between most of the other strawhats (Usopp usually excluded) comes down to a showdown between two similarly matched opponents in terms of physicality, Nami's fights so far are usually about the strategic discrepancy and overcoming brawn with brain. I totally understand what you are saying and I'm not trying to discount it at all, just trying to add to it a bit. I do wish that it was choreographed a bit better as not to make Kalifa look like a loser here, but I think from an in world standpoint this matchup isn't actually as far off as you may perceive it to be.

ChocoBoshi

The way Oda balances characters is by making them all dumbasses who spend 60 percent of their time fucking around heroes included 😂. The trick is that when you meet someone who isn’t like that they are SO dangerous it catches you off guard and whenever they are on screen you can’t help be on edge because they will just merk people at the drop of a hat; people who are further in the story can probably think of a few examples of this but there’s one guy who’s this energy but to the max and he is scary as hell to have on screen because of it.

Extra Crispy

Openings and recaps can take like 5 minutes of the episode, so why watch that?

NickO

Well I'm glad Nami stole the key from Kumadori cuz we would have lost it for sure LMAO

Sanji Joestar

Why are you guys still skipping openings? You know you can watch them now.

Artemis

My personal headcannon is Sanji even though he didnt hit kalifa tired her out so she took a bath to rest a bit lol.

Edword

Less goooo
