Speaking with experience, on chemo as we speak for my third cancer, understand. Those around her would know best. Some treatment is light, iodine and pill chem, and some like radiation therapy is far worse. I have high hopes for her and Rich. Her videos make my chemo easier, guess that kindred spirits thing...

Carlston Solar

I am purposely being vague since the character hasn't been introduced yet. I am only pointing them out where they have been seen before.

Speed1247

Nah, cause even When he’s a little slowed down, it’s still STUPIDLY FAST when you consider who’s attacking you. Also, keep in mind that when you’re fighting someone who’s drunk in an ANIME, they are damn near IMPOSSIBLE to predict. You never know how they’re gonna attack, defend, or evade. That unpredictability, combined with Kaido’s BUSTED stats, makes him all the more TERRIFYING.

Chris White

Thank Fuck Luffy loses his temper and LAYS INTO Kaido for a little bit. Stress Relieved.

Chris White

Who? I am completely lost here.

Chris White

When she’s still throwing up? Seeing an anime all about Cooking would just make it worse. I want her to react to it too, but After she’s completely done with her cancer treatment.

Chris White

Speaking of, wish she would react to Food Wars..that would be so good. Or at least Uncle Roger reacting to Food Wars xD

Cvillain626

Also the Studio changes, animation glow up and need to get Act one over in time borked the flow.

Carlston Solar

Wonder if Alicia knows, Uncle Rodger reviews a Japanese Curry from a one piece episode... Think she skipped it as filler but amusing.

Carlston Solar

all I can think is recoom from ginyu force, Qi.... if we count off screen then entire planets? those two before they ran into the ginyu force? plus android 14 or w/e the fat one was named. technically in buu saga he beat goku too n the one guy when they went to find bobidi? as for sanji if we count the movies he might actually be slightly above vegeta?

Easy Mode - A.I

This specifically was why I quit the anime at 915. After reading the manga, discovering the new quality of the animation and being hyped for the moment, I felt they completely ruined the impact of that moment. I was so disappointed. I had already been put off by the fact that all these mysterious aura's suddenly started to exist in every little moment. Like when Luffy discovered the sword he's borrowing. They made it this dramatic discovery when Luffy actually casually spotted it and declared he'd be taking it. I now realize how much time they had to buy. They were licking the manga's heels at this point, so every second bought was worth gold to the animators. And what better way to buy that time than presenting a cool fight to the audience. It's just a shame all of it has to come at the cost of these moments built in the manga. Rant over. Sorry for posting it in your replies. Just felt like I could build off of your comment.

Hynkka

Im like 90% sure he does lol

Goobert

you might be right lol

Easy Mode - A.I

Unfortunately Toei tries to fill the space by adding scenes that tend to make a character appear stronger or easier than they were in the manga.

TheRoguelock

eh kind of not that bad

Icy

Now you know why Kaido is called the "Strongest Creature on Land, Sea, and Air." After all that, all Luffy did was sober him up.

UltramanUltimo

5min recap + 5min flashback + 5min of episode + 5 min of episode that will be in next recap = average one piece experience at this point 😂😂😂 what do ya'll think? Am I in the wrong or spittin?

Benedikt Spálovský

Thats fair, ive only played 4 which is why i referenced that game in particular

Polarbear Bowl

Idk if you were being serious or not, but Sanji does not have more wins than Vegeta bro💀

Yovan_Night

Alicia could play Pirate Warriors 3. Goes into non-canon things with Dressrosa but otherwise it is a solid entry of the series.

ChaosSepher

Fun fact: the game "pirate worriors 4"'s main story was written around the release of these chapters/episodes, which means after this point the games story is non cannon, however its still not recommended to play it as the dlc has big spoilers for up to episode 1076

Polarbear Bowl

I like wa wa wee wa😫

RedLil Sleepy

Blame Toei for having caught up and needing OP for ratings.

Dale Cooper

Obviously I can't spoil, but we'll see how the crew and Oda feels about one on one duals this arc.

Dale Cooper

I love that Robin made the face as well. She's spent too much time with these knuckleheads, she a goofy-aaa now too LMAO

Koirby

We are officially 100 episodes away from, imo the best punch in the series. I'm excited ^^

Kamvex

909-910 41:16. It's not actually a clear image as their face is hidden but they are there next to the others.

Speed1247

Nah the Kid slander is insane, especially given hes Odas favorite supernova.

Goobert

Countdown at a minimum of 50 days if she watches and releases two episodes a day

Robert Collard

Sanji has more wins that Vegeta

Icy

The anime kinda fumbled this moment

Pirate King Buggy D. Clown

There are so many things to get upset about in this world, I don´t really have the energy to get upset over anime discussions (I still do. I just don´t have the energy for it). Stars Hawkins just becomes more bullyable by the second. That is up there with Jangos beard being a mushroom that grew on his chin that he then ate. Like, the purpose of Eyebrows is to prevent sweat from getting in your eyes, but his are just gonna catch and funnel it straight into them. Actually think he would be better off with none at all. Gotta love One Piece character designs sometimes.

Ebofa

Lmao, I always try to keep convos about shows and anime lighthearted and healthy on both sides, so thx for recognizing it. I will admit, whenever he does the ‘you’ll be safe thing’ into someone IMMEDIATELY DYING, that shit is so funny. Also, those ‘tattoo’s’ that Hawkins has aren’t even tattoos, they’re just his eyebrows that have grown vertically instead of horizontally😂.

Yovan_Night

I do actually like Hawkins as something of a foil/failure state to the other Super Nova. Not to mention that I have a deep fondness for Apoo, and I am looking forward to seeing more of him (He is just such a shit, pun intended). But that discussion would veer into spoiler territory for now. But you are right, there are so many things to make fun of Hawkins for. Like the fact that he has tattoos instead of eyebrows. Or how he is a literal Straw Man. Or, as she has done a bit already, he keeps going "Don´t worry, you will be safe" right before whomever he said it to dies in his stead. And I also appreciate you being so open to feedback and discussion. I find that when one discusses One Piece with someone Oda flips a coin on whatever it is going to be a good healthy discussion or absolutely maddening insanity. So nice to sane talk about it.

Ebofa

We have? Where?

RagingAmigo 1

Technically we have seen that person already but it's never directly mentioned or pointed out.

Speed1247

kid is the furthest thing from mid lol, wont say anything spoiler-y cause i wanna be respectful on the off chance alicia reads my comment, but if we compare the damage he did in fights compared to the other combatant he fought alongside, we see he did waaaaay more damage but we dont give the other combatant he fought alongside against [redacted] shit because hes cool or whatever X3 kid really just is luffy without plot armour lol

bunny

i REALLY want to see this animation for a potential Beastars anime remake/adaptation of any else of Itagaki Paru sensei's manga

Yagi di Hoshi

at least we know luffy won't lose again... right?... he sure wouldn't lose again n again n again right?..he's not sanji or vegeta! he is luffy!

Easy Mode - A.I

You hit the nail right on the head with this ngl, W comment. Every Supernova besides Uroge and Hawkins has an aspect that makes them likable for the most part, but those two haven’t been shown to have that. And like I said earlier, the inhumane and selfish attitude can definitely work when applied correctly, Blackbeard being my example, but Hawkins is just a flat character in general. Sometimes I think that Oda might’ve intended for Hawkins to die before the timeskip with how one-dimensional he is.

Yovan_Night

I get that, and most of her times when she makes fun of a character IS funny, I just wish she could recycle some new jokes for Hawkins, cause how many times is she gonna say ‘Tarot Card Bitch’?💀 the drake jokes are hilarious tho. But nah, I definitely see where you’re coming from, and I appreciate this whole back-and-forth remaining respectful and stuff👍

Yovan_Night

I think what we're missing from Hawkins that we get from a lot of the others is a humanizing factor. I'm sure if we saw him interact with his actual main crew - Faust and the others who he DOESN'T seemingly use for life fodder (because using your best members as fodder and then having them die halfway through sailing to a new island is incredibly stupid) - he'd come across as less of a manipulative creep and more of a person with dimensions. The idea that he's using his actual crew is what's really hurting his image, and it doesn't help that we only really know his proper crew from small panels and vivre cards, not actual in-manga interactions and the like. Even Drake has a humanizing background, and Apoo is zany enough that he doesn't really need more than being a music weirdo (for now). Law has a hell of a background, Kid had good interactions with Luffy and has a crew he cares about, Bonney saved Zoro so is shown to care at least a little about others (although it was to her benefit, really) and we already know all about our boy Bege. Hawkins and Uroge are the two who haven't really been given more than a few fights and Hawkins in particular hasn't had any humanizing since he interacts with a detached coldness not only to his enemies, but also his allies. It's a turn off for many.

Liberty

Fair enough. Through I do feel that most of Alicias dislike of him is based on the whole Tarot thing, and most of the other roasts spring from that. For example B of this, see Drake who is mainly getting roasted because he has the misfortune of having a rather rostable namesake. Stuff like that just kinda puts you in a mood about certain characters, that makes everything they do oh so easy to make fun of. I am very much looking forward to her getting to see more of these two, and to watch the animes take on them myself (I am a Manga reader only outside of this).

Ebofa

So in the manga, there wasn't even a clash when Kaido decked Luffy. One page he was in front of him, and in the next he was behind, having already crushed Luffy's chest. That's because in the manga Thunder Bagua makes the user move so fast it looks like the user teleports, but in the anime they changed it to just a strong hit for some reason.

Lich109

Useless Captain Mid

PerfectYarn

Even the Straw Hats aren't interested in fair play. When Karakuri injured himself to make up for his sister's cheating, Luffy called him an idiot.

Lich109

That’s definitely a reasonable take to have, that I would even agree with myself. I feel like Hawkins was never written to make the audience feel like he had ‘future pirate king swagger’. As you said, he’s not audacious, he doesn’t take unnecessary risks, and doesn’t care for his crew/men. Someone like that could never be an Emperor, much less the pirate king. Using another character that has similar traits to Hawkins, Blackbeard fits many of those traits as well, but the difference between him and Hawkins is that he actively and always pushes to see his goals coming into fruition no matter what it takes. I believe that Blackbeard is what Hawkins’ had the potential of being if he had the audacity and risk-taking abilities that other Supernova’s have. All in all, these reasons are a very understandable reason to not like Hawkins even though his powers are cool. My only problem, which I mentioned in my og comment, is the hypocrisy Alicia uses to condemn a character like Hawkins and uplift other characters she likes. I personally don’t have that much of a problem with it, but it is very noticeable when she does it.

Yovan_Night

Captain EustASS Midd

Egregore

Personally, my big problem with Hawkins is that he don´t got that future Pirate King Swagger. Compare to Bege, who also served an Emperor for a while and very much does not fight fair. But he cares deeply for his crew, was willing to tank several hits from Big Mom to protect them and just constantly refuses to give up. Constantly thinking up new audacious plans to deal with the escalating situation and try to take advantage of it. Hawkings meanwhile, don´t give a shit about his men, freely using them as Meat Shields/Extra Lives, only really ever plays it safe, have failed every fight we see him in and don´t do anything unless the odds are enough in his favor. The other members we have mainly followed, Law, Zoro, Luffy and Bege, are all defined by not just their connection to their crew, but their audacity and their drive. Being willing to risk it all against slim odds, in their attempt to succeed at their Goal. So for me, Hawkings just lack that certain edge of madness, the risk taking and the certain sense of je ne sais quoi that the others have.

Ebofa

The Irony in the codeword for these episodes is "Yay"...

UndeaditeJesse

Wano has a lot of recap, but they make up for it with absolutely killer animation (especially when it gets around to the big showdowns).

BakaSama

Here comes Captain Mid!

Mugen Flow

Hawkins is a pirate. I don't get where you get fair play from other than some rarities among the cast.

Dale Cooper

New Emotes!!!

KnightAR

Only that if the idea of the author is to make the attack fast and surprising you fail at adapting it if you make the most telegraphed slow thing in the world. Hence Luffys later comment doesnt make any sense.

ZackdasBohne

I really dislike the One Piece anime during this part. Every scene is just filled with so much filler which is not only pointless but also often just wrong in regard to the source material.

ZackdasBohne

And the thing is, Hawkins hasn’t really done anything to warrant that hate except him being a snitch, which he didn’t even actually mean💀💀

Yovan_Night

While I actually like most of the stuff they added in the anime for this fight, I wish they hadn't let that last King Kong Gun hit. Don't get me wrong, the oneshot in the anime gets the power difference across well too, but in the manga we have Luffy pummel Kaido with the Kong Organ, Kaido gets up in a corner panel, we get two small panels of Luffy's and Kaido's eyes and on the next page Kaido is already past Luffy who is in the background with blood all around him. It's so fast we don't even get to see the hit. It's the last two double pages of chapter 923, I highly recommend checking them out

Vokiman

Well you see... Alicia hates Hawkins, so anything he does is cheating. And she loves Luffy and Nami so anything they do is not cheating. But you are right about there not being an in-between. It all boils down to plain old double standards. Something a lot of people are guilty of doing.

Jayke

Yeah, Kaido is a FUCKING MONSTER. Though, Kaido Does drink a LOT…he is NEVER helpless. If you’ve seen how Rock Lee from Naruto gets when he’s drunk…Kaido is Kinda the same way. That much muscle and power with NO restraint…it becomes INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS.

Chris White

Can’t wait for the next episodes Alicia!! I hope you do a BIG binge!!

Chris White

33:48 - *in Borat Voice* "My Wife!"

Ramizis

31:04 yes and his name is oda

UndeadNovaKing 0

You’re right, Luffy would never let some shit like that slide just like he didn’t let what Charlos did slide either, but that was never my original point. I just wanted to point out the fact that this would be the second time Luffy almost got his crew wiped out fr.

Yovan_Night

"If it's one on one, Kaido will win"

Edward French

It's more troublesome, sure, but Luffy isn't the kind of guy to let someone get away with torturing a child just because they have the backing of the strongest dude in the world. After all, kicking that strongest dude's ass is but a stepping stone for the future pirate king.

Mickey Muscalli

I’m talking about before that when he hit Holdem with Red Hawk. Pretty sure someone even told him that Kaido would come down if one of his headliners got beaten. Kaido wouldn’t have come down had Holdem not be defeated (if I remember it right) just like Kizaru wouldn’t have came if Luffy didn’t punch the celestial dragon.

Yovan_Night

nah not really, he only became as brazen as he did after seeing what he thought was Kaido wiping out half his crew.

Santi

To be fair, nothing Luffy did here really affected Kaido. At best, it just made him sober up. The anime also illustrated just how much of a TANK Kaido is. Pretty well imo

PrinceofDDR

Anime: Shows just how fucking TANKY Kaido is. Luffy got off all of that arsenal of his, and all it did was make Kaido SOBER UP. Then it was GG. Manga: Luffy doesn't get even HALF as good a showing before he gets one tapped, showing just how far above Kaido truly is. I'd say both mediums showcase the absolute difference in POWER between Luffy and Kaido pretty well. Just in different ways.

PrinceofDDR

No hate towards Luffy at all (well maybe some hate) but isn’t this the second time he almost got his crew packed up by punching someone?💀 one time with the celestial dragon, and this time with Kaido.

Yovan_Night

I think that in this instance is not that bad, now later there is a special aggravating fight involving zoro that is awful for that reason!

Christian MH

How can you blame Hawkins for using that smart tactic and praise Luffy and Nami for using their smart tactic against Cracker? Either you need to consider all of it cheating, or all of it’s fair game. There isn’t really an in between I don’t think.

Yovan_Night

Exactly my point, theres just a faint indication of Kaido being unhurt. You have to look closely to get it, which explains why a lot of anime watchers don’t pick up on it. My point wasn’t that the anime fully ruins or contradicts the manga, just that it muddies a lot of scenes. Also what i find most disappointing about this particular scene is how Kaidos arm kinda wiggles with effort, with him gritting his teeth as he pushes Luffy. Its not the effortless, dry wack that we are shown in the source material.

Iamir

ONE HUNDRED GUYS Only 100

Lucas_Oreki

POOOOOWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Xenocrona

Well If you look closely you see there's not even a scratch on kaido after all those attacks, and if you pay attention to the story g4 Luffy got knocked out by big mom simply blocking his attack meaning kaido was just letting him go all out and was disappointed.

RedLil Sleepy

I can see the YouTube comments going crazy that you thought Luffy beat kaido 😂

RedLil Sleepy

*Seeing Alicia lose it over Tama being hurt* Thank the lord it does not get worse from here. 😐😐😐

Robert Collard

Wororororo

Alexander Saldivar

That boy was baby shaked, he wasn't ready for that level of monstrous might!

Vendacator

I think both the mange and the anime did well in showing how strong Kaido is and how not ready Luffy was. Given they are different media in manga the shorter/less panels you get of an encounter tells you how easily Kaidos can put down the Luffy. With in the anime I feel you need to draw out the fight to show how nothing Luffy has in his current arsenal can damage or even bother Kiado and it just take one swing from Kiado (not even a serious swing at that) to ome hit K.O. Luffy.

Gus

The anime does a very poor job in helping understand powerlevels when it lengthens these encounters and adds extra scenes. It’s a bit disappointing. The manga makes it clearer that Luffy is fully outmatched and out of his depth, not being able to even tickle Kaido here and getting instantly one shot with a fairly effortless blow.

Iamir

yay more one piece content from the queen we love to see it also yay luffy using conquer's haki well unconscious is so cool

dragon emperor ry
