second ep's highlight is buggy! honestly buggy is the best! they nailed him! <3 I absolutely love that they changed the town's roofs and made him a clown tent and he keeps all the people there. It is an example of change done right! it keeps the feeling, still scary, still funny, but not an open roof space with cannons. The only part i didn't like in this ep apart form again camera angles. is that buggy was like a psychologist. lol saying like let's dive deeper, what drives you, and that kinda stuff. XD like why? XDhis fruit introduction and how they handled it is amazing! i kinda wish luffy kicked him in the crotch XD but ok XD i also didn't like that luffy looked scared when in the water tank. he is just not the type. XD i'd rather have him smile or be expressionless. XDD nami x zoro not liking each other is the best. XD and omg! chouchou!!!! T_____________T maaaan i cried over this dog so many times!!! and i was sure they will remove the dog but T____T they made a tiny cameo of the dog and the mayor T_T oh maaaan! this is the best T______T that dog cameo is everything T_ Tokay i lied XD i can live with buggy the psychologist as it is hinting he know shanks. what i hate the most is luffy repeating shanks' words! :( i mean the whole flashback with shanks, even though great, I LOVE that they kept it as is, and i LOVE the world government logo and marine logo on the box with the fruit and the crates. This is just the perfect change that is ever made XD lol i love it! but the whole part with his arm, and luffy being it's my fault. the seabeast going away. it didn't have THAT impact. it was still good but not as good. i imagined it hitting more because they are real people. but sadly not. :( and luffy's child actor even though he acts really great, sadly he didn't have that energetic fun feel to him he looked more like hurt, crybaby type. which is a bit strange but whatever, he is a childactor, and i guess he did the best he could do so it is not my place to criticize him much. other places he acted great. And after all of this luffy repeating shank's words T_T i understand why they could include this here. i think they mostly didn't know if they will be able to continue so they wanted to include as much of an impact as they could. but here it is not earned. when he says it in jaia, it is earned. here it's just not earned, it just looks like he is trying to simply copy shanks, while in jaia it was luffy, it wasn't a copy, it was luffy, it was different and it was like the epitome of cool! and i forgot to mention this in the first ep, but ben backman :( he is like a huge miscast. :( hopefully they will recast him or rename him, and then cast someone else. but i love seeing red hair pirted fight! i love the finger gun, even though i kinda don't buy the surprised face on shanks XD but i guess it's just a me thing, they were still great, lucky roo is absolutely amazing! <3 like i said again XD buggy is great <3 and everyone is great, i LOVE the snails, denden mushi, i love that they made a mini snail with nami , hinting that something is wrong with her. i kinda wished they would hint she is like with marines or something, as she constantly says i hate pirates. That would have a been great, then it would become a great twist later. Garp! <3 <3 <3 maaaan i love his Scottish accent and I love how they are including coby and helmeppo's story here <3 i love it! i love that he has baroque works card on his desk, (btw first ep zoro fight with mr 7, and hinting at mr 1 LOVE IT) i love also that the captain morgan's map that box contained Kuro's poster! <3 and i love that they kept the dog hat on garp and his dog ship! and i didn't say it on the first ep, but i love how you can spot mihawks coffin ship when they show all the ships in the beginning! <3
