Straw Hat Episode 523+524

I wanted to record more op but the construction made me wanna start fighting LOL I'll post more this week though :3

Comments

Glad Alicia understands the trauma Sanji went through and the long and painful process he needs for rehabilitation. Of all the real woman he is next to in his vulnerable state, Nami and Robin don't make it easy

"Shambles", you say? Well yes actually, it is just about that time. Not TOO much longer.

i’m a trans person and thous episodes did not make ME uncomfortable at all, because we already got the explanation, they are not trans, “the heart of a maiden” can mean a ton of things, and in this case they are Okama A Femboy can use the same metaphor, there is no rule that using one metaphor makes you something some one else decided it means, there is also “having the heart of a lion” does that mean people are now lions?

Raven Shadow

Momoo has PTSD

SakakiMaya

The construction workers have great comedic timing

Cole Savoie

Ehh that’s sort of the point tho. Racists aren’t that interesting in real life too.

First author to take the nosebleed gag to it’s logical conclusion

I'm not sure if this is a translation error, but at 44:50 I'm pretty sure the joke is that the currents are "fushigi" (mystery) currents, because they don't understand what's being described. It's an OG running gag Luffy used to say all the time.

Gabe Collamer

So the devil himself (¬_¬") ... why can't we have nice things😑

their Okama which is a Japanese concept that's somewhere between tans and drag. plus man has been isolated from anyone with even a semblance of similarity of sexuality or identity as him with no internet or even letters and constantly sexually harassed more than a woman of the 1950s by people who are so far from anything he has an interest in it makes him physically sick. Trans stuff is for later, Okama get a lot of respect in the story, to normalise it they need that and disrespect in equal amounts oda also has editors and higher-ups, he can't entirely write whatever he wants.

Rhiley Jones

Not gonna lie, the way Sanji keeps saying "real women" bothers me because it reminds me so much of TERF-speak. I know that's not intentional and I'm not saying this to rag on Sanji or Oda. It's just something that bothers me personally. On the subject though, I see people get super defensive of Sanji's time in the Kamabakka Kingdom, to the point that I don't think they actually want to address the problems with it. People will say "they're not trans, they're drag queens," but I question that since they all seem to live as women 24/7, and the narrator even describes it as "an island where everyone has the heart of a maiden," which is pretty much literally the Japanese way of describing trans women; people will say "it's cultural differences between Japan and the west," but there have been manga that handled LGBTQI+ topics better before these chapters of One Piece existed. It doesn't stop me from enjoying One Piece. One Piece is probably my favorite manga of all time at this point, and I think it's going to be a masterpiece when it's completed. And I think Oda's heart is in the right place, and that however distasteful some of his depictions have been, he's always made sure the LGBTQI+ characters are on the side of good and freedom--allies to Luffy, and literal revolutionaries on the world stage. But I wish people wouldn't straight up deny that some of this stuff can still make trans people uncomfortable, and that it's okay for us to feel that way.

Lexi

am i the only one losing at the low budget nami in certain scenes. XD she got the gold fish eyes lol

Karma

Don't Worry, while sanji is gonna have a rough time for fishman island, copious amounts of mermaid tiddy will help him recover from his time in Drag Queen Hell.

VisV

And it will become relevant on ths arc

Faroth

Right!? Watched on YouTube, was a random recommendation and immediately had to watch the show

Ambrosius

You know I was pretty happy Oda didn't really use the lame nose bleed gag for most of One Piece, but then this happened and he actually took it to a whole other level where it was pretty funny.

Alopex The Wanderer

The drilling and banging get louder when alicia talks then become's background when she doesn't lol

james blaire

Yeesh, did they give you a timetable when they will supposedly be done now?

ChaosSepher

I feel you about the drilling and work ongoing outside. I've had work that supposedly last 1 year end up taking up to 3 years. Still having ptsd about ppl walking on my balcony outside my room.

Clover

CURSE YOU CONSTRUCTION 🚧🚧🚧!!!!

Silver Raven

I really don't hear the drilling you're talking about

Icy

The Sanji hate is sad. As this arc gives him his worst treatment. But glad you're able to see the best version of Sanji still. Post Timeskip only gets better as it goes.

Christian Brucken

I love you just going with Sanji so far, yeah this arc does him kind of dirty, but it's great to see someone able to just go with it rather then spending waaaaay to long complaining about it.

Seraphem

so Roger's first ship was a small life boat and his first crew member was a swordsman hmmm something seems familiar

major charmander

Maybe consider recording OP earlier, instead of near the end of your streams? Since it appears that's when the construction guys come around. Hope your appointment goes well, and that they don't keep you long.

Chris White

"Oh no! The construction workers! They are really loud today! And right after I ate beans!"

GeneralBass

the opening absolutely slaps visually and musically it has no right going as hard as it does

Kieren

Fishman Island arc is gonna show a lot of the new shit

Gurth-Quake

alicia i think youd really like ya boy kongming, its a music focused anime from a few years back but so good, i just discovered it the other day. would love to see a reaction to the opening maybe the anime too if you find it interesting

Ambrosius

35:17 For a moment it sounded like Alicia was just ribbing ass...🤣

RedRam-Ipsen

You can watch the opening now BTW

Rick Baron

Also the pacing is pretty slow and the villains are uninteresting (at least to me)

Rick Baron

Funfact about japanese comedy like brook does it: if they didnt say the thing explaining the joke, then is not a joke For example, if brook didnt mention at the end "oh, but i dont have eyes yohohohojo!~" then isnt supposed to be a joke. They literally have to explain that is a joke so then IT CAN BE FUNNY. if they didnt do that, then isnt supposed to be funny... basically the opposite from occident, when we have to explain that something isnt a joke (usually "no kidding", "not joking") and that if you 'explain the joke' then isnt funny anymore Thats why brook always ads up the phrase about him being a skeleton, if he didnt, then he isnt joking, so it mostly be depressing yohohohoho~!

Faroth

8 am to 8 pm, ohhhhh. Yeah, then understandable. Thank you for replying, and I apologize if I came off as rude.

Michael_T

That Roger scene was beautiful.

Gildarts1#fan

they work from 8am to 8pm because they were supposed to finish in 2-3 days and its now week 3. So we had to tell them to push to finish the job. Only so much I can do

aliciaxlife

I'm sorry if this comes off as rude, but if you know there will be construction happening (especialy during a series you're looking forward to) then why not move the reaction to earlier in the stream, and not complain about how annoying it is?

Michael_T

And it only gets worse with sanji from here.... (that is till past this arc, he alr after)

Raymanz22

The only issue with this arc is ultra simp mode, but he's back to normal by next arc.

Icy

Happy birthday

Icy

I was on twich for the entire stream only to fall asleep before OP. So glad that, Alicia started posting to patreon this fast.

Oda has said that if the Straw Hats were an actual Blood-related Family these are the roles they would have. - Zoro would be First Child/Eldest Sibling - Sanji would be the Second Son - Usopp would be the Third Son - Luffy is the Fourth Son - Nami the Fifth - Chopper would the Sixth Son/youngest sibling - Franky and Robin would be the Dad and Mom respectively - And Brook would be the Quirky Grandpa.

Julio Castillo

when I was in College I lived in a student housing high-rise. They had construction going on there for almost a year and I was next to the garbage-chute. That mattered because I could hear the 'infernal drilling' loud and clear through my walls, no matter what floor they were on. 7am - 4pm every. fkin. day. I woke in shock a few times because I wasn't expecting have loud a f drilling as my alarm.. so yea, I get you and I hope they're done soon :o

Bernhard

Those people sound like they don't know how to use a fucking drill

Giddo

Yay a birthday present

Diego Tovar

are you aware of how many 'you know whats' there are in OP? Youll be in a Coma until the series ends just to cover them all

Randomocity732

Drill Piece is my favorite series.

Okoga

"did brook just scare himself with his own story?" Legit do that to myself all the time ngl

KuroOberon

Beauracracy

Joel Sasmad

As a Sanji fan i respect that you are probably the only reactor i’ve seen try and give sanji some time to adjust back. It’s hard out in these streets for us Sanji fans post ts.

SpartanManJDOGG

What's up with North American construction taking so long? If I remember correctly they are building a deck, right? 2-3 professionals should be able to make a quality deck in a couple of days depending on the weather. dufuck they doing?

Rhiley Jones

Thanks for the episodes!

thefallingduck

I'll support her all this time...but if someone could just gank my ass and put me into a coma til she gets to you-know-what that would be cool

Cvillain626

Idea. A drill emote, for times watching OP when you don't want to get too emotional lol

Xenocrona

Awesome. It'll be cool to see more when you're able. Hopefully you'll be able to record more soon.

Christian Brucken

524. The one rare One Piece episode that covers more than one chapter - as most anime these days should - and...we got all those handymen outside ruining the verisimilitude for our girl

Yagi di Hoshi

YAY LETS GO BUT ITS 00:21 for me so I shall sleep

Hassan Ali

There is no way. I was just in a little minecraft session after an Elden Ring session. And as i turned on my phone i thought i could go for 2 episodes of One Piece with alicia right now. Got a notification. Hunter x Hunter which i haven't watched. Open patreon anyway, one minute aho this was uploaded. Thanks. It's 1:20am here and i'll have a peaceful night xD
