Anime Notes[]

  • This is the first episode without an ending theme. As a result, the entirety of the credits appear during the opening theme, which can inadvertently spoil the appearances of certain characters for uninformed viewers.
  • This is the first episode to use We Are! (Straw Hat version) as the opening, using the first opening animation with the narration as its basis. The FUNimation dub reuses the dubbed dialogue.
  • Beginning with this episode, the anime takes a mild break from the Enies Lobby Arc to focus on the past adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates which caused them to experience character growth and bring them up to this point in their journey. These breather episodes flash back to early episodes of the series and feature comical Straw Hat Theater shorts at the end to fill the last minutes of each episode.
  • As this episode (along with the next three) recaps events from before the series switched to high definition, much of the footage is upscaled. This is particularly noticeable because these episodes were animated in the narrower 4:3 aspect ratio, and are therefore pillarboxed within the 16:9 aspect ratio (with the words "ONE PIECE" written in the pillarboxes). This practice of pillarboxing the old footage in flashbacks continues from this point on, often with decorative borders instead of black pillars, but occasionally recaps are reanimated in high definition, then later using the "Special Edition" prints.
  • This is the second time in the One Piece series that Luffy's inner thoughts are heard, the first being episode 192.
