Thank you to the One Piece Crew for commissioning this episode!

In this episode, for some reason this show has decided to depict a highly sexualized assault of Nami in the shower, because god forbid she be fully clothed and GOD REALLY FORBID the whole crew get assaulted. No no no, we have to have a creepy rapey character and animation that lingers on her naked body AND TO TOP IT OFF a close friend who doesn't believe her. Ugh.

Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Lauren for commissioning this episode!

In this episode, I am absolutely disgusted with Alba and I'm really hoping that she snaps the fuck out of it in the next episode because as far as I'm concerned she's 100% in the wrong and Jane is 50% in the wrong for the way she's trying to police her mother's reaction to extremely shitty, dismissive treatment.

Other stuff happens, but that's the main takeaway for me.

Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!

In these chapters, Sabae has got to rescue someone from being killed by a sea serpent, which results in Hugh having to save her, and yet he still thinks he doesn't bring anything to the table! Hugh, stop it! Our friends continue searching likely sites for Ithos, but instead of finding the city, they find a young Sphinx.

Thank you very much to the One Piece Crew for commissioning this episode!

These are the ones where some of the crew finally go ashore on Thriller Bark, and for some reason Brook is super excited about getting here and leaves the Strawhats behind immediately despite having accepted Luffy's invite into the crew.

Of course, the people who are least keen on going to the haunted island wind up there first, and we get some pretty fun Scooby Doo sequences.

Thank you for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Florian for commissioning this episode and joining me on camera!

These episodes are the ones where we first meet Brooks.

Need I say more?

Thank you so much to Natalia for commissioning this episode!

In this installment, we get to see some super sus behavior on Aaron's part, and I have my doubts about whether the "captured by the cartel" thing is really what it looks like. Meanwhile, Jane is struggling with writer's block, and is similarly blocked about what to do what to do about Rafael's proposal, and Xo is worried she's pregnant.

Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Kratos for joining me for this episode, and for commissioning it! These episodes are the ones in which we get to see the Strawhats on the open sea, on the defensive while they figure out a name for their new ship. Unfortunately, they all agree on the same name, and I'm just going to cal it the Sunny because that's much better than the full name.

Thanks so much for listening to the episode, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Kyle for commissioning this episode!

These chapters go from some incredibly high highs, to some incredibly low lows. We have the successful resolution of the slave rebellion, both rescuing (some but not all) of the Dara and Agon, while also destroying the city-ships the Lyucu would have used to invade Dara. But we also have a horrific, drug-fueled murder of a shipful of slaves at the hands of enraged and frightened Lyucu, steered by the maniacal Cutanrovo.

Thank you very much to Joanna for commissioning this episode!

This is a pretty wild episode, because we find out that Zaz's brother is his twin, which needless to say causes some confusion for people. Rafael's father is discovered in the fountain, and Rose is over here contacting Luisa to run away with her? And maybe Luisa AGREED?

Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Michael for commissioning this episode!

These are some really fantastic episodes of One Piece, and may go down on my list of favorites once I'm caught up on the series. I'm loving the weird naked bit with Frankie, I'm delighted by how Zorro changed my mind on Usopp.

Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
