531: ''Ryuuguu Palace! Led by the Shark that They Saved''

[Crossword]

The Minister of the Right sounded kinda like Ivankov, heh.

Pretty slow episode, but it was alright. Neptune drooling through his beard was pretty funny, and I'm glad that the anime makes it much easier to tell when they're underwater or not, and who is and isn't wearing a bubble.

Shirahoshi's voice was pretty fitting, and wasn't quite as squeaky as I had feared. Though maybe that was because my volume wasn't turned up all that high.

[BossJinbei]

Ryuugu Palace is so beautiful! I absolutely love the colours
YES! Van Der Decken is in the next episode! I can't wait to see that rave-ish scene XD

[Drake_Cloud]

Hmm, i wonder if Shirahoshi's voice is going to change once she goes through her character arc. It'd be a nice touch.

[MasterKingJC]

Okay episode.
The first half was pretty weak, but it was fun seeing Caribou being such a creeper.
Neptune's "jamon" number was really awkward. Not bad awkward, but slightly funny awkward.
Nami beating the snot out of Pappag was hilarious.
Shirahoshi's voice is very fitting...unfortunately.

Also, am I only one who noticed the weird, dragged out pauses during Caribou's scene and the one with Neptune?
It felt like such a weird way to pad out for time.

[Kaldary]

It was fun seeing Caribou attack the mermaids. Parts of the episode were slow. And Shira's voice, God is it annoying.

That was Octopako.

[Sharkz1]

That was Octopako.

Glad to know i wasn't the only one who noticed her. It was nice seeing her in color since I just went back over that cover arc!

[chibi15]

I think it was a very nice touch to put Franky wanting to find Tom's family!!! XD GOOD!!! Shiraihoshi's VOICE!!! I knew it will be the high pitched annoying ones!!!

[GreatLiver]

It makes it quite understandable why others found Shirahoshi annoying in the manga. Listening to that every episode'll be fun.

[Thousand Lion-chan]

Hahahaha, oh man, Shirahoshi has Teletha Testarossa's voice? That's PERFECT for her! Anyway for those of you who find her voice annoying, well just imagine how satisfying it would be whenever Luffy tells her to shut up.

[Sphingx]

Not a big fan of this episode. What was with the odd dragged out pauses in the entire trip to the Ryuugu palace? There were times when I wondered if the video had frozen or something.

[Thousand Lion-chan]

I liked this episode a lot. Especially the dragged out pauses funnily enough. I don't know why, they seemed to give it a tinge of realism plus they seemed kinda funny with the way they gave such an awkward feeling as they were placed exactly after the King's silly chant.

I really liked the extra filler scenes like the flashback with Franky and Robin telling Nami where they were going, it was a trivial detail but I really like these interactions with the characters just doing their thing and doing normal stuff.

Shirahoshi's voice is deliciously annoying (especially with how much she sounds like Tessa:P). I can't believe anyone could hate it, it's so hilarious! I can't wait for next week when she talks a lot:D!

[Sick_Fool]

I liked this episode better than last week's. It was slow, but for some reason I didn't mind at all. Quite enjoyable.

[Kishido]

Meeeh episode and god Shirahoshi...

[Saturnchild]

Did Luffy just get some serious groping action? Followed by...trampoline action? Good thing it was him. Sanji would have probably self destructed after this.

[YoiYoi]

Why can't all episodes be as good as this? Great artwork, great animation, great humor. Much better than last week's abomination.

"RYU-RYU-RYU-RYU-RYU-RYU-RYUGUU PALACE *facefault*" Very funny :/

[Nolus]

I'm starting to not like Neptune that much, at least in the anime. What's with the random "NEPUTUNU" thing?

Minister of the right was pretty cool though, I love his voice.
Oh but Shirahoshi... I understand the choice of voice but still... I'll get used to it maybe.

[Thousand Lion-chan]

You guys are selfish, you know that?! How did you think Luffy felt putting up with that whiny screeching? Well, now you get to share the experience of all his pain;)

[Enzeru]

Glad that I'm not the only one who doesn't like that. The first few minutes I was waiting for Luffy to throw a freaking Pokeball at Neptune.
