Longest title in the history of our pdcast...just had to make me do it Moria. Still a pain in my ars. We are back this week and Luffy is making massive strides in the eyes of the Marines and some of the strongest pirates in the world. Ace's execution is almost carried out twice, but he is saved by both Crocodile and Luffy himself, though the race toward the platform continues. Whitebeard still is one of the strongest men on the battlefield, but he is losing steam as the battle rages on. The marines have all the momentum on there side. Time to see if Luffy can turn it back and free Ace.

Im pretty sure we reviewed the right episodes. Somebody check back to last weeks recordings and take a gander. Regardless, Luffy continues to run toward Ace going nowhere fast. Boa and Jinbe still coming in clutch while Marco tosses his hat into the ring of making a difference. Whitebeard takes a shot in the dark while Vista makes his presence felt as a swordsman. Admiral Akainu continues to show how ruthless he is as a leader and this battle is proving to be no holds barred.

i think...

Luffy has finally arrived to the Battle of Marineford and he makes his presence known early. Whitebeard senses something fishy and orders a majority of his forces to stick back outside the bay while his main crew pushes the marines back. Luffy runs into a few foes from the past, but thanks to recent allies, he doesnt have to worry about them at the current point in time. The race to save Ace continues. Can our straw hat get there before it is carried out?

Next Week: Episodes 469-473

Out of nowhere we hit a fantastic set up episodes full of action, lore dumping, and many new faces and powers. We dive deep into the conversation to set things straight and figure out how this could impact the world going forward. Stakes are high but our favorite straw hat boy has disappeared following a flashy entrance by Whitebeard.

In a world like any other...a college of dragon riders is the center of the civilization. At the head of the school is the man himself. Shadow Daddy.....Nope. Wrong media again. Huge thank you to Annabelle for joining us for our bonus episode reviewing the movie One Piece Strong World. Shiki is out of prison and targets a very special crew member. The Straw Hats must go against the legendary pirate in order to get their friend back and continue on their journey in search of adventure. Brought to you by the real hero..Billy.

Luffy is officially on the seas bound for Marineford. In the meantime, we get another chance to check in with our favorite crew members. Perona continues to deal with bullshit while Robin gets set up with an interesting group of people. A lot of different stories continue, but the common denominator is it doesnt seem like anyone is making it back to Sabaody in a good amount of time.

Next Week: 459-463

Episodes 457-458 are fillier.

After a long journey to the depths of Impel Down and back out, Luffy has finally made it through, though his main goal still has yet to be accomplished. Along the way we have seen some new faces and some old faces, but these characters continue to surprise us on the impact they bring to Luffy's journey. A lot of questions are still up in the air and the only way to answer them is to keep sailing and let Luffy grow. We can only hope that this isnt the last time we get to see our lovely dancing boy.

Next Week: Episodes 452-456

Luffy is working his way back up with some unexpected allies. We've got a lot of fighting this week and some dumb lines that create some excellent entertainment. Just when Ace was so close, the Navy pulls him far away and Luffy feels the responsibility to keep fighting for his brother. In the meantime, Whitebeard is still missing from the map and Blackbeard shows up out of nowhere with some unknown intentions.

Next Week: Episodes 447-451
