(00:01):
All right. Oh, OK.
Wow. That's one way to start this
off, I guess. What a what a roaring comeback.
Of course, just got to let things out, right?
It's always better out than in, as my mentor once said, you
know? Yeah, yeah.

(00:22):
Was your mentor also like your therapist or something?
Yeah, sure. Oh.
Get out of my swamp. What are you doing?
In my swarm. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense,
I think. I think that checks.

(00:42):
Don't miss the mosquitoes. Though never the mosquitoes get
rid of them. Scum of the ear.
Yep. Just burn them.
Burn them all. Truly, the spiders will find
something else to eat. There's.
Plenty of other bugs. So many other bugs.
All right, David, let's just jump right in because I got, I
got a feeling you and I probablyshare some similar opinions
about what we just watched today.

(01:08):
In episode of Sabo, we see a return to Dressrosa, but this
time with a little bit more Sabocontent thrown in the mix.
We start with the most original thing about the special, a quick
little meeting between him and Koala.
Discussing the game plan about what's going down on the island
is short lived however, as we are quickly moved on to a
general recap of the moments leading up to Sabo obtaining the

(01:29):
Flare Flare fruit in the Coliseum.
Such points in the arc as the previous block battles, Law
facing off against Doflamingo and Fuchitora, and Usop knocking
out sugar all show up once againas we relive about half the
original episodes of Dress Roasta in a 100 minute time
span. Strap in folks, but not too
tightly because you've been on this ride before.

(01:52):
Yeah, I didn't enjoy this. I figured you like not.
Would you care to expand a little bit?
It felt off. Off, OK, Like not exactly what I
expected you to say. It's like they like, I don't
know why, but like I don't know if it's just the Rose tinted
bleach that's in my eyes, but like I I don't remember certain

(02:15):
things going like I like I remember Don Chinjo like getting
like uppercutted for some reasonin my head instead of being just
punched right in the schnoz. Oh no, yeah, you've
misremembered that one, right? I think it's just in my head can
and overwrote it. Yes, I think that is true.
I, I still think mine's cooler, but I, well, I, it might make a

(02:37):
little bit more sense than what actually happens, right.
But like, it was just like, I'm watching this.
I'm like, OK, so this is supposed to be, you know, from
Sabo's perspective. And we got like barely anything.
Like I feel like most of this was a really shitty recap of the
whole art. Not even the whole art, the
first half of it. Basically, right.

(02:59):
Yeah. Like I'm sitting here going
like, what am I watching? Like if this was like a whole
episode of like where it was like 100% from Sabo's
perspective. I would have been cool.
With it. But it was like, yeah, here's a
minute of animation of Sabo running between alleyways and
then we're going to just copy paste the exact same shit from

(03:19):
the show, Not any different and or slightly different.
Why was this made? Yeah, and why?
Why did it have to be this? Long it didn't that's what it
really comes down to. I think it did not need to be
the length it was honestly, I didn't even think it needed to
be what it was in the 1st place.The existence of this is it

(03:42):
feels like A2 parter basically in that they decided they were
going to try and make one of these specials for Dres Rosa and
then split it down the middle. But I don't think there is a
second-half. A second-half doesn't exist for
this. Like they decided to center on
Sabo for the first half of Dres Rosa and then they went, OK,
let's. Just make the second-half now
and everyone went but who asked you know I I agree like it was a

(04:12):
whole lot of just like why why just why like why am I re
watching the flashback episodes of watching the kid die?
Why am I re watching fucking Marine Ford like why am I?
What is happening? Why?
Why am I here? Yeah, maybe it's just because

(04:33):
we've watched it a couple of times already in a row now, but
seeing the Marine Ford War again, even a little bit, was
just grinding to me. It wasn't even more fun like it
was with the last time. I I was waiting for like an edit
of like the cut to just he's dead like now.
There was nothing satisfying about it.

(04:53):
Like it was just the same thing,but again.
It wasn't even more creative like 3-D2Y was where they they
gave it the new art style and animated the scenes differently.
You know, this was just, they just grayed it.
They just made it like a weird green Gray color.
Yeah, this is basically one for one from the show.
I'm sure some of it is like a little bit different, but really

(05:15):
not enough to make me care that much.
And then on top of that, we're getting all of the same
flashbacks that we've seen already from Luffy's back story
at this point in time, where yousee Sabo and him and Ace and all
of the stuff that happens on their island.
Do you know what this reminds meof?
Go on. Again, to talk about another

(05:37):
show entirely to just, you know,do you remember watching Naruto
of course, and every single timethey went and did like the
Saske's like flashback Exactly. But like it's like watching his
family die again. And like every single time it
was always the exact same thing over and over again.
But then they added something small to the end to make it like

(05:58):
new, you know, you know what I'mtalking about.
But like they did that like 8 times.
Yeah, of course I complain aboutthis all the time.
I feel like that's what we're doing yes, it's it's the same
thing but different. It's ah yes, here's Ace dying.
Here's them being brothers up We're in this arc.

(06:19):
Let's watch this arc again. We're drinking the sake.
Cups. Yep, we're drinking the sake
cups up. We're back in Dressa Rosa now
this time and we're watching it from a slightly different angle,
only three minutes at a time. Yeah.
The rest of it, just the show again.
And I just that that so I couldn't record yesterday.
Like after I finished watching, I was like I, I can't I.

(06:41):
Have to lay down. I have to lay down my head hurt
after watching this because it'sjust like I don't get me wrong,
I love that arc. That arc is great, but these
like, super cuts, it feels like I'm watching like a fan
animation of just like, oh, lookat these highlights of these
super duper moments. But then they're like, do it

(07:03):
wrong. And it just hurts.
It hurts my soul. Yeah, And it hurts my head and
it gives me a migraine and I have to lay down because I hate
my life. This is a recap of the first
half of the Dress Rose art. The reason it feels like that is
because it literally aired whileand those who are watching week

(07:24):
to week. Back in 2015 it aired while
people were getting laws back story.
So this special was created and then released while dress roster
was still happening. Oh, I hate that.
That's even worse. This wasn't even a episode of
Sky Pia sort of deal where we just decided that we were going

(07:47):
to recap this thing that happened a long time ago and
make it a little fun. They just straight up were
thinking to themselves, hey, this arc is taking fucking
forever. People probably don't remember
what happened at the beginning anymore, so let's do it but make
it from Sabo's point of view. But even though they didn't even
do that entirely no, like they didn't even do that, they just

(08:09):
did like oh here's like 4 moments where it's from his
point of view and then it's justhere's the same show again.
How would Sabo have known what was going on with like Robin and
them on the island? Right, he doesn't.
Like how would he have known that he was?
He shutted. That was not his perspective.

(08:30):
We should have only seen what was from his perspective and
what he could have seen. Yeah.
None of the other shit. Like why?
And then like she was like or even just like them, like doing
the the redo of just like the flashback of them as kids.
Like, why was that necessary? I mean, that part at least has
been a little farther in the past for people.

(08:52):
That was a couple 100 episodes ago.
So. Sure.
Right. But like, but like for me, it's
like the reason why I'm like, I'm outraged by it's like, why
is this on the screen right now?Like, yeah, it's important,
right? Like I won't deny that that
narrative that happened then is important to view, but why is it
important again now in in this moment as I'm watching?

(09:14):
Like, why? Like, why are you show it?
I feel like it's it's filler garbage, like we're just padding
to add more minutes to this episode Movie.
What? What is this?
Why is it 2 hours? As soon as I saw his two hours I
was like what the fuck is this? All of these specials are are
100 minutes my friend. I hate it, I'm in hell.

(09:36):
While you were here for 3D. 2Y yeah, that one was good.
I like that one if I recall correctly.
This one's bad. I'm not sure how you would have
felt about last week's with Nebulandia.
Nebulandia was actually kind of fun.
I don't know if you were ever present for a conversation we
had about it, not once, but Foxyis in it and.

(09:56):
Oh God, hate it already. But he kind of takes a back seat
to the whole thing like he's there.
The whole thing is not about fighting Foxy in another set of
Devi back fights. You know, it starts out that way
and they make you think it's going to be that.
But then they take a hard left turn and then and, and they make
they introduce some marines and it actually becomes kind of cool
because they go to an island that has all of these things on

(10:18):
it that counter devil fruits like the natural flora and fauna
and environment of the island emits different things that
counter devil fruits. So it's like new content, though
it's not just rehashing. Yeah, it's completely new.
See like that I like when it's like, hey, here's a little, you
know, snippet between like this could have happened narratively

(10:41):
like that's why I like the Y2 whatever 3-D2Y that burn D world
that one. Why like that one is because
it's believable. It's believable to have
happened. This stuff, it's just like it's
just content for the sake of content.
But it's like I I feel like I'm watching AI slot like it's the
same mental fatigue. I guess you could say where it's

(11:02):
like, ah, yes, this is what AI deemed as most important from
these arcs. And we're going to add 2 seconds
every 30 minutes of new content that is not from the original
shit from a different perspective, and we're going to
call it brand new. And I hate it.
I hate it. Why am I doing this to myself?

(11:24):
Yeah, I get fundamentally why itexists because I bet you there
was some sort of hiatus in theresomewhere too when the anime was
actually airing as well. So, right, I have no idea of
knowing this for fact, but I wouldn't be surprised if
somewhere in the dress ups are between the beginning and this
point where they're actually learning about laws back story

(11:45):
that there was some sort of hiatus and that they had to take
a break or whatever. But I am just fatigued.
Like IA 100% understand that butat the same time I'm the type of
person that would rather get no content than shit content.
That's fine, I understand that totally like.
For example, show that I I've been, you know, loving recently

(12:08):
Da da da, right, right. Season 1 ends on a very like, I
don't want to call it a cliffhanger.
I want to call it a a fucking just like it's like.
Jesus Christ. It it chokes you out, it put me
in a panic. And we recently, you know, I've
been starting to get season 2. I'm waiting for season 2 to, you
know, finish so I can just bingeit all at once because I'm a

(12:30):
fucking degenerate. I guess I don't know you.
And me both. I can't contain myself, but like
if they had put like filler in between that in the time of them
animating season 2, like no, I don't want that.
I'll wait. I'll wait the six months for
Chef's Kiss episodes. I want those chef kiss.
I don't want the this Hey remember?

(12:57):
Hey, this is where we left off about two months ago.
Hey, remember your favorite showof all time that's over 2000
episodes? Here's the same shit, but
slightly different. Yeah.
Like no, no, go away, no. I want to see new.
I want to see I I could wait. There's other things I could do.

(13:20):
There are plenty of other animesI could divulge myself into.
That's the point. They don't want you watching
other stuff, they want you watching their stuff.
Yeah, but I feel like, like I'm stuck in a meth den and I, I get
it. You know, the people who are on
that, you know, that new stuff, they want that stuff straight to

(13:41):
vain. But it's like, no, I don't.
I don't, I don't need it. I can wait.
I can wait for the good shit. No more one piece.
Take it. You're going to like it.
I don't like it. You're going to relive this arc
that you already have seen. So like 6 months ago we were
doing this shit and now you're going to watch it again.
Do you remember all of these hype moments that you love?

(14:01):
Here, have them one more time. I'm going to celebrate and and
then they, they cram all of it at you.
But we don't even get we're we're in the front half of
Dressrosa, where almost none of the good stuff happens.
To be fair, there was a lot of cool stuff that did happen in
the front half in my opinion, but like, they didn't even

(14:24):
really cover it. They very much so cherry picked.
Yeah, go on, tell me something that had fool that happened in
the front half of dresser Rosa. Well, like the Unchained Joe
fight. I'm sure you know high Rudin
watching you know Moosie High Rudin got one shot in right.
It was cool but but like they glossed over the the Sanji

(14:47):
Violet stuff. I didn't like that good again.
It's been so long I think I'm just looking at it through rose
tinted glasses. This special was initially
pitched by Brendan. He gave the pitch the same way
that the special itself gives the pitch.
This is dressed Rosa, but from Sabo's point of view.

(15:07):
And he did also warn me ahead oftime.
He did not remember truly what the ratio was like of flashback
to actual content. The snake oil tastes like
vinegar. I don't even remember the
percentages he gave me, but theywere truly off by a lot even he

(15:28):
was generous and might have evensaid something like 5050
flashback as opposed to new stuff.
The balance of that was horriblyoff.
It was probably. 98%. Well, it was like 20 to 30%
flashback, 50 to 60%, just dressRosa again, and then like 10 to
20% dress Rosa. But actually from Sabo's point

(15:50):
of view, you know, so I like Sabo.
And so the chance to see anything new from the time that
he was on Dressrosa to when we see him on Dressrosa actually
interested me because I was hoping to get maybe him snooping
around Koala or doing revolutionary secret
revolutionary army shit, lookingfor the guns and stuff

(16:13):
beforehand. And there's none of it that that
that doesn't exist. He just has a tea party with
Koala, learns that the flare flare fruit is going to be at
the Coliseum, and then goes there.
That's it. That's all the new.
Yeah, it was really bad. Yeah, it was like genuinely
upsetting actually, because I really hope to see more from

(16:36):
Sabo on Dressrosa or just revolutionary Army stuff in
general. It didn't even just have to be
him. If we saw Koala doing stuff or
Hack doing stuff in the background, or some other
revolutionary army goon that we didn't even know was there, but
shows up here because we wanted to make things interesting.
Right. Yeah, like that would have been
cool to see none of it again. Snake oil tastes like vinegar.

(16:58):
Yeah, I don't know. This is truly just a recap
episode of all time. You know, a lot of the other
specials are named in a way or are done in a way that makes
things at least a little more interesting.
Skype is kind of the same way, where it's the same arc, but
we're going to condense some of the stuff and maybe make a
couple of things a little different.

(17:19):
But for some reason this one annoys me more.
I guess it's just because of thepotential expectation of seeing
new but not really getting new. Like, again, I didn't have the
the pregame hype quote that Brendan may have, you know,
pitched to. You, of course.
I only got the hype from the name itself Episode of Sabo.

(17:41):
What did I actually get? You got episode of Dressed Rosa.
Call it what it is, call it whatit is.
Don't say it's something different like no, this is.
Yeah, unfortunately, I think there's two main things wrong
here. We got false advertised to we.

(18:01):
Got hoodwinked. And also we're just kind of not
the target audience for this sort of special.
If Dressrosa was 600 episodes away like Sky Pia is at this
point, I would maybe have a different opinion.
Agreed. So there's also that.
I I I'm just I'm fatigued on flashbacks of this specific time

(18:22):
period, the war time period. We've done it a couple of times
in recent weeks now and I'm overit.
I don't care. Hey did.
Just so you know, Ace is dead. Yeah, did you know he got killed
by a kainu? If you didn't catch that the
first time, Doughnut. Doughnut.
Yeah, doughnut. Oh God, Can you imagine the

(18:45):
whole Cake Island ones equivalent of this?
No. And I don't want to.
Frankly, I don't want it. You know it's.
Out there though, like it has to, right?
It's not, oh, thank God, no, I Ican tell you for certain that it
does not exist. Oh thank God, yet.
Oh no. Yeah, I I'm sure at some point

(19:07):
it will exist. However that time is not now.
The most recent of specials thathas been released assuming the
the website that I watch on typically is in true release
fashion. There's episode of Skype, PIA is
the 13th special and then there's something called Bartos
Secret room. That sounds amazing.
It sounds great and I can't waitto watch it.

(19:30):
But if it's like this. Brendan has not mentioned that
this is a thing we can watch, soI can only assume one of two
things A, he doesn't know anything about it or B, it's
spoilers. So if we can get there
eventually then that would be fantastic because I'll take any
extra Bartow content I can consume.
So yeah, the second most recent thing is Episode of Sky Pia.

(19:52):
So they just decided at that point and before that it was
episode of E Blue, which I, I don't know, I don't know what
that specific timeline is like. So.
It's the E Blue saga, but from Yasup's perspective.
Oh God, yeah. Or Yasuke or whatever they're
they're those psychos. No, you got it right.
No, Yasop is a Usop's dad. Oh, you talk about Johnny and

(20:15):
Yosiku. Oh, that would be actually, no,
I'm back in. Give me that.
Give me our long park. But from Johnny and Yosiku's
point of view, take me back. Also, since we started talking
about just like from certain people's point of views, what if

(20:37):
they did the dresser Rosa arc from a what's his name itty
bitty little fairy boy needle for?
Leo with a ton Tata. From his perspective, but it's a
first person perspective, so allthe stuff, you know, you see
what I'm saying? Like where he's like looking up
like constantly. It's always from like, like

(20:59):
seeing everyone's double chins and everything.
This is just one of those videosyou find of somebody who
strapped a GoPro to the collar of their cat, their outdoor cat.
Exactly, but it's Leo. But it's Leo, yeah.
Like how like imagine how weird that like footage could get.

(21:19):
Like that would be cool. It wouldn't be anything new
content wise because we know what he was up to, but like it's
just a different perspective. Yeah, it's the hardcore Henry of
One Piece specials. Did you ever seen that movie?
I did. I actually liked that one.
I also kind of like it, but I understand.
The the narrative is boring, butit was more of the the visual

(21:41):
aspect of it and seeing how theydid the cool, you know, the
editing. Yeah, the technicality behind it
is is great. Right.
The story of the movie itself isabout the most generic action
movie thing you can get, but it serves the purpose to show you
the parkour from first person soI'm I'm fine with it.
I also fully understand people that said they got sick watching
it because. Yeah.

(22:02):
Yeah, that will induce some serious motion sickness.
For anyone who doesn't know, this is an action movie from the
first person perspective, and there's a lot of parkour in it.
And gun violence. And gun violence.
Again, I still love that scene where the one guy leans out the
bus window and it's like, hey, nice jacket and he just lights

(22:23):
them on fire because it's a flamethrower.
Yeah, it's been a hot minute since I watched that.
Might have to go back and and dothat.
See. Like that one's just a fun time.
Oh yeah, that's a turn your brain off and just enjoy the
visuals sort of moment. Exactly.
Yeah, that this episode hurts again.
I feel like I'm stuck in that infinite filler loop.

(22:45):
Yeah, I'm dying on the inside. Yeah, I mean, there there's a
few tiny shining moments is there Silver Linings of this
where I did watch a lot of the Xinjiao versus Luffy fight over
again just because I was thinking to myself, well, I'm
here, so I guess I'll just, I'llwatch Don Xinjiao get his pointy
back again for the hell of it. Also Moosie.

(23:07):
You know, South and Moosie. Real MVP.
Truly, though, and and watching higher didn't get fucking
annihilated in one hit again wasI mean, it's pretty satisfying
still, it's a it's a quick 30 seconds in and out and then keep
scrolling. You know, I don't have to invest
as much time as the Don Jinjao fight.
I can just go, oh, here's that moment where Tyrodin stomps on

(23:30):
Moosie and Lucy, and then 30 seconds later he's laid out and
Luby's warming up his arm to go hit somebody else.
But a lot of the other stuff, you know, watching the block
fights over again, I'm just like, fucking okay, whatever.
Skip skip, skip, skip, skip. I did stop for Bartow moments.
I didn't skip until after the Don Jinjo fight because I was

(23:53):
like, where's the new stuff? Oh, I'm so sorry.
I thought this was new, where isit?
And then once it got actually, Ididn't start skipping until like
an hour and like. 30 What are you talking about?
The movie's over. No, because it's like a hour 40
something. It's an hour 45.
The movie's basically over an hour 30.
Yeah, I I that that that's how much of it I watched.

(24:15):
I'm astounded because I was like, where's the where's the
new stuff? Where's the new stuff?
I hate this. Again, you're telling, you're
telling me you didn't hit the you didn't hit the arrow key to
skip 10 seconds once until that moment?
I did not. Wow, I hated it.
That's incredible. I would have never guessed.

(24:36):
That any of the because I thought there was going to be
more Sabo, but like even the flashback stuff, even the
flashback stuff. Oh my goodness, it was.
So bad. Honestly I'm floored that you
didn't skip basically any of this movie.
I think I watched. It's also partially because I

(24:57):
had an audience with me and I felt bad for skipping.
Oh, you streamed it? I did.
Oh well. So.
I watched it and I hated it. How many people did you have
there? I think like there's like 2
remember who was there again? As soon as I stopped and I got
to the end, I, I just shut off. I I literally like shut off my

(25:21):
computer and crawled into my bed.
Like, no, I'm done, I'm done. I'm done sitting at my chair.
I'm done looking at my computer screen.
No, no more. Yeah.
And I fell asleep till like 1 inthe morning.
And would you get up and play more Space Pirates?
Yeah. Was your lawyer there?

(25:44):
Yeah. Yeah, all of the checks.
And then we watched another showentirely later on that shows
Shinsekai Oh. I think I've heard of this.
It's weird. That's a whole other podcast on

(26:04):
its own. It hurts your head to watch
because it makes you think is this.
Kyori maybe. Yeah, I know what you're talking
about. I've seen this one.
With the psychics and rat people, yeah Yep, that one.
I think I got 5 episodes deep and my head hurts.

(26:25):
No, no, I made it past. I made it to the flash forward
and then we stopped. I know I've seen this and I
could probably remember semi decently the larger plot points,
but I it's been a long time since I watched that I do
remember being good. It's a weird one.
It is a bit of a weird one and it's one of those you can't turn
your brain off for that you got to really lock in.

(26:47):
Pay attention to it because you'll lose details pretty
quickly if you do because. Because again, we started
watching that before I watched this right episode.
So again, I feel like I was primed for failure for this, you
know, episode that we're recording right now.
Because I'm go from that contentwhere you have to pay attention
to every fucking frame in order to like to catch everything.

(27:11):
And then I jump into one piece and I'm like, don't, don't miss
A-frame, Devin. You'll, you'll he'll miss
something. Clearly.
Yeah, clearly he'll miss something.
But that's wrong. That's wrong.
You could skip Devin. You could have skipped the whole
time. So.
So now this makes way more sense.
You were locked in and that was the problem.

(27:32):
That was the problem. I was locked in and I couldn't
unlock. You couldn't.
Unlock the latch from paying attention to Shinseki Yori.
And then you waltzed into episode of Sabo and you went,
oh, but what if there's two minutes of new content in this
flashback I've seen 20 times? Oh, I'm so sorry, my friend.

(27:53):
I am. I am so sorry.
Now you understand why I wanted to go to bed afterwards.
It makes at least a little more sense that you were so unwilling
to skip any part of the first hour and a half.
And frankly, you could have skipped the last 15 minutes of
this movie anyway. You did not I.

(28:13):
I did. At that point I broke, yeah, at
that point I broke and I was like, I can't, I can't anymore.
It can't possibly be new. And it wasn't.
It really wasn't. You're right, it was not.
There was nothing there. It was slightly reanimated.
I think I'm not. I wasn't going to go back.
Some of this is most of this wasprobably reanimated, honestly,

(28:35):
but I couldn't tell it matched the actual show in a way that I
just was. I whatever, dude, you know,
because this this was clearly getting worked on in tandem at
the same time as the regular show.
I'm pretty sure so the same people that do the normal week
to week show, we're not working on this movie, this special of
Sabo. So I'm I'm sure a lot of it was

(28:57):
reanimated, but I have no clue. I could not, I could not tell
you. I couldn't tell you what was new
the. Whole thing could be new for all
I know, but. If they did.
Shame on them for that. I'm I was already too fucking
brain dead from watching it overagain that I just I don't sorry
audience that this one's a bit of a a bit of a -1 but but man,
there was just so little to grabon to in this that I just I feel

(29:21):
bad, but also I don't I. Genuinely don't know what else
to talk about except for saying this was bad.
Yeah, you know, one of the moments that I did stop for just
because it made me angry in a different way was actually I
didn't even truly stop for this.I was just scrolling through and
I got to the point where Doflamingos getting the call

(29:43):
that Luffy is in the castle, buthe's looking at the broadcast of
the Coliseum and seeing Sabo fight in the finals.
And Doflamingo, the mastermind behind all of this, one of the
smartest characters in the universe that we've seen, looks
at Sabo dressed as Lucy on his screen and goes what do you mean
Luffy's not in the Coliseum right now?

(30:06):
Lucy is right there on my screen.
How can Luffy be in the in the castle?
Dumbest fucking shit ever. There is no reason I'm mad all
over again, just like I was the other night when I watched this,
that Doflamingo did not realize that Lucy was a different person
in that fucking finals fight. Why does?

(30:28):
Lucy have a lead pipe, that's different.
Why is he using a lead pipe now?Why is his hair blonde?
Why is his scar 5 shades pinker?Why is he wearing blue now?
Yeah, where's the hat? Where's the hat?
So, Speaking of reliving anger, what's her name?

(30:52):
Sugar no. Oh, I thought for sure that was
who you were going to talk about.
No, the the gladiator girl, Rebecca.
Rebecca seeing her armor again. Oh.
God, yeah. I I literally just went what are
you protecting? Nothing.
Straight up nothing. What?
Are you protecting? You're protecting nothing.
This makes no sense. And then I just continued in my

(31:15):
Stew. No, that's understandable.
I get that completely. Luckily, she's not on her screen
very much in these. Yeah.
Or maybe that's just because I skipped half the movie.
I think I literally watched halfthis movie.
I think I watched 50 minutes total.
You. Didn't miss anything.
Oh, I know that is partially because I got the heads up from

(31:35):
Brendan that a lot of this was going to be flashback.
That isn't new anyways, but I probably would have gotten to
this point regardless because we've seen all of it.
I wish I got that heads up. I look.
You were locked in from from theother show.
I I think if you had not watchedin Sick Guy Yori beforehand then
and you would have also been mashing that skip button.
I think because otherwise that's, you know, it's provided

(31:59):
me with some explanation becauseI think on any other occasion in
the past that flashback stuff has come up, dear mashing the
skip button. I've always skipped it. 5
minutes has never gone by so quickly.
Five years has never gone by, soI.
Know it's like the movie Click. Yeah.

(32:19):
He just keeps using the Fast forward so often that anytime he
presses it, it just skips him five years farther than he wants
to be. God.
Yeah, it's unfortunate. This is the point that we got to
with these specials. We got to a real unfortunate
pattern with these where we went3-D2Y good, sky Pia bad last
week, Nebulandia actually prettygood, this one bad again.

(32:43):
So what you're saying is if I join the next one next week it
should be good? Well, Devin, we'll probably come
back around to this somewhat quickly here, but next week we
will not be watching a special of any kind.
Impossible. That's all we ever cover.
We're the non Canon One Piece podcast now.

(33:08):
We only cover non Canon events in the One Piece universe.
We don't watch the show anymore,we only watch non Canon filler.
We're not Canon adjacent stuff to the show.
Could you imagine that was your only source of information for
One Piece? You never watched the main show
but you watched all the side shit.

(33:30):
It's just. Every episode of filler, every
side thing, every movie, every special that's non Canon.
That would be awful. That sounds truly miserable.
You have no context for anything.
You watch one special and he's blown into his thumb to make his

(33:50):
hand real big. The next special he can do Kung
Fu, you know, and he's bounce man.
Where did this come from? Please listeners, if you are one
of those people, tell me your story.
I need to know. If I was ever going to run a 19
seventies 80s style unethical psychology experiment, I think

(34:15):
that's what I would do. I I would I would take a small
child and I would lock them in aroom and force them to only
watch VHS tapes of one piece specials and anything that's non
Canon to the show. I.
Like the idea of you like porting the modern stuff because
there's there's no VHS. There's some most good shows

(34:37):
that made like in the past 10 years, Yeah, but like you're
porting it onto Avhs. Yep, Yep, I've got the rolly TV
and everything. Just like elementary school.
Oh. Shit so that they get their
human interaction for the day. Yep, that's awful.
Yeah, they don't even get to watch it around the clock.

(34:59):
They they have very regimented 8to 10 hour blocks of one piece
watching time and then they go to sleep and then, I don't know,
somewhere in the middle they eatand maybe have a bit of board
game time with themselves. Of course, you know, I had, I
hand them two decks of Yu-gi-oh cards and have them do all the
deal themselves. Wait.
A minute. Are we living in that currently?

(35:21):
Do we just break the 4th wall? Are we the children forced to
watch, content to see the psychic evaluation of minds?
Xavier, he's broken the mold again.
I'm going to need 15 CCS of the anesthetic stat.
Shit, I'm. Going to need some class DNS

(35:43):
sticks here. Oh right right.
So anyway, back to where I was. Well, what I was getting.
To So VHS is yeah. So so VHS is 1970s whenever the
Stanford Prison experiment happened.
I think that's right. Seventies, 80s.
I'm going to make some child just watch non Canon one piece.
I feel like a child would tolerate it more than an adult

(36:07):
would. That's true.
I need someone who can understand what they're
watching. Like a young adult.
Yeah, some poor SAP of an undergrad that they're going for
some nonsense degree. Justin, where are you?
Strap, Justin. In Yeah.
Delete all his information of one piece off of his brain.

(36:30):
Yeah, just a bit of electroshocktherapy until he doesn't
remember anything. No, Justin's too old.
He's too ingrained in it now. I need someone fresh who has no
knowledge of One Piece at all. OK, No, but.
But anyway. So next week we will.
And you know, this this might aswell be the the segue into, into
the end of the, or the back halfof the show.
Unless you got something else you want to say.

(36:51):
No, there's nothing else to say about this.
Don't watch it. Well, I mean, look, don't go in
with the expectation that you'regoing to get actual new content.
If you haven't seen this before,you are going to get the first
half of Dressa Rosa Crank rammedinto 100 minutes with
occasionally Sabo doing something that you didn't watch

(37:12):
when you were watching the regular Show.
That's. It it's mostly just running
around. You're going to skip past most
of the good stuff like the Doflamingo Fujitora law
three-way battle that happens onthat random island.
You get about 30 seconds of law versus Doflamingo.
Maybe there's more, I don't know.
I saw 30 seconds because I was mashing the right arrow key.

(37:33):
It was about 30 seconds. You get the one cool moment of
Fujitora bringing down a meteor and then none of the rest of
what happens there, and then that's it.
It's a very poorly sparked notesversion of Dresserosa.
Yeah, so look, if you want to relive Dresserosa, but not a lot
of the cool parts and see Sabo about 10% more, watch this.
I guess. You know, there's really not

(37:58):
much else to it other than that the back half of Dresserosa
where the cool stuff happens. You know, you're not getting God
USAP, you're not getting him sniping sugar the second time.
You know, we we do the part where he knocks her out because
she feeds him the Tabasco shot. You know that happens.
But you don't get gear for Luffyor any of the other good parts

(38:19):
of that fight. None of it.
So just know that going in. You get all the mediocre parts.
So with that out of the way, next week we have finally
actually made it to the end of our own filler arc.
Impossible. We all of the back end stuff has
mostly been wrapped up or at least been wrapped up in a way

(38:41):
that is comfortable enough that we're going to start moving
forward now. So next week we're going to do a
little bit of a special thing where it's not fully set in
stone just quite yet what we're going to do in specific.
Well, it says written here. Special announcement eyes emoji.
Well, yes, as part of it, there will be announcements for the

(39:03):
stuff that has been being workedon while we were doing our whole
filler arcs. There's going to be, you know,
assuming it it all goes according to plan.
Next week we'll be announcing a bunch of that update stuff and
shortly thereafter, I, we, we onthe production side will start
recording Wano episodes. The following week.

(39:25):
You, the audience, will probablyhave one or two episodes in
between. So it will go this episode,
probably the announcement and there's going to be some sort of
like Q&A stuff that we do at thesame time where Jordy's going to
gather a bunch of general questions as well as maybe some
potential prediction stuff for what we think Wano is going to

(39:47):
happen. But there's going to be that
episode then there's going to beanother episode that we have had
pre recorded and on the back burner for a while that will
happen after that announcement one.
And then I think after that you will see Wano so.
Don't worry audience, I am just as confused as you are.
Yeah, so the timeline goes this episode, announcement episode,

(40:09):
super secret special episode andthen returning to Wano episodes.
I thought you were going to say Ultra Instinct secret episode.
Yeah. Question mark, question mark,
question mark profit, then wano.I feel like I'm just trapped in
the question mark, question mark, question mark land.
Yeah, but it's actually the first step instead of the fourth

(40:29):
step. So that's the loose schedule for
now. We are out of our own Filariomi
arc. We will be soon in the coming
weeks moving on to Wano, which I'm excited for.
I, I'm I'm more than happy to toget to the Wano stuff that those
couple of episodes that we watched the the teaser of the of
the beginning of it was, was wastantalizing and I am looking

(40:52):
forward to being able to watch the whole thing.
Good soup. Good soup.
Agreed. Devin, I'm going to ask what is
probably a futile question. Do you have any quotes for this
week? I do.
And it's just going to be Dave, Dave insert Bart peeing in the
pool. That's how I feel.
Don't do that. We don't need that one out of my

(41:15):
way. Man, it's Bart time.
My ovaries. That was great.
Oh yeah, that's the stuff, baby.That's the quote.
That's how I felt about this episode.

(41:35):
Yeah, I did not mind seeing Bartow again.
I stopped briefly for Bartow content when it was happening.
Which leads into my golden ham Bart.
I'm more than happy to give it to Bartow.
Just him whizzing. I, I mean, again, we, we don't,

(41:56):
we don't need that specifically,but I'm, I'm more than happy to
give Bartela Mayo the the olden ham.
I can't wait for people to pull up our you know podcast.
Look at the the title of this episode episode of Sabo and it's
just a picture of Bart pissing. It's not going to be that.

(42:16):
I could dream. That is not what this will be.
Or just Bart, but it's just a Bart and everyone's going to be
like, that's not Sabo. You're goddamn right it's not
Sabo. Sabo's not the fucking MVP of
this episode. I don't give a shit about if his
name's in the title. In fact, if we give out a Miss
Valentine for this, I'm giving it to Sabo for not being more

(42:36):
involved. Agreed 100%.
All right, easiest golden ham ofour lives.
The hell yeah. I eat the barrier barrier fruit
so you can't lay a finger on me.Moving on to fan mail where we
don't have any because neither of us can get on or go on the
e-mail without I'm. Pretty sure Brendan hit the

(42:59):
mailbox. Like somebody else drove by and
he leaned out the window with a baseball bat.
No, no, I mean like he just likefull on front end of his car
into the mailbox just. Oh Wham, oh, interesting I.
Think those new servos are giving a little bit of a rough
time. I guess so, yeah, we're going to
have to put some WD40 on those. Just not how it works at all.

(43:22):
Yes, it is. I don't know what you're talking
about. I'm a scientist, clearly.
Oh yeah, I'm a I'm a handyman. There's only two things you need
to fix stuff, duct tape and WD40and.
Spike. Oh, tons of spike.
Yeah. It's the secret ingredient that
no one ever thinks about. Yeah.
Moving on then from from that, we've got the garb Gab time,
baby. Oh boy.

(43:45):
It's Garbin and Gabin time and you haven't been here for a
couple of weeks, Devin, so I'm going to ask you to stick your
little grubby hands on into the garb here.
All righty. And I'm feeling OK.
These are just what? What the hell is OK?
It's like 5 different things I could feel in here.
I feel like a toy. Yeah, but I also is is this just

(44:07):
a bag full of garbage? No, Why would I?
Why would I do that? I would not disrespect the gap.
Yes, it is. It's literally I could see it
right there. I see a toy soldier.
I see a bunch of scraps from Godnote like McDonald's.
OK, you know I'm I'm. I just went on down to the dress
row, said Junkie. And I found a bunch of these old

(44:28):
toys and I put them in the gab. OK, well, either way, I got
sticky. It says Vega Punk.
I'm I'm just going to set it down.
That's gross. Well, you got to flip it over
though, because on the other side is the thing that we're
going to do then. OK Oh, oh, oh, it says a rubber
tire. Also, I don't know why it's

(44:48):
sticky. Did I?
Did I drop my soda in there? Oh, I think, I think I did.
You know, I was wondering where my Doctor Pepper went.
Oh God, it's all over my hands. This is the worst nightmare of
my life. All right, that's my bad.
All right, Anyway, what did they?
Rubber tire. OK, so we're going to we're
going to take a rubber tire and surmise what devil fruits to

(45:13):
feed it. Comfort.
Well, what does that? What does that even do?
Does it make it molar? Rubbery?
Right, Extra rubbery. What does it do?
I would just want to do it out of curiosity like.
Right. Is it extra stretchy now?
Like regular rubber doesn't stretch as much as Luffy does.

(45:34):
So this is like the question of if you give a human a human
human model for like, what happens?
Right, exactly that. That's that's why it's like like
my first gut instinct of a devilfruit to feed, because like a
rubber tire, no devil fruit thatyou give it will make it useful.
I don't know if that's true, I'msure you could give it

(45:54):
something. Oh, lay it on me.
What? What do you?
Well, you said the rubber rubberfruit and it made me think of
what's something else adjacent to it that maybe you could give
it to have some kind. Are you going to give it the
mochi fruit? Well emoji is not bad, but I was
thinking the spring Spring. We're also at Dressrosa so I'm

(46:16):
thinking about what's his face Blondie?
Fuck, why can't I remember his name?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I was.
Killing me something. The hyena.
Yes, but like, what's his regular name?
Bellamy. Yeah, Bellamy Spring, spring
fruit. Give it some extra bounce.
Make it just a weird dumb clown car thing.

(46:37):
Oh, we can do real live action rubber the movie.
I was thinking that too, but like what fruit would work you?
Give it the flare. Flare fruit.
You set it on fire. Yeah.
You just like, set it on fire and let it go on a murder spree
or, I don't know, you give it some kind of carnivorous zowen

(46:58):
fruit, You know, give it the wolf wolf fruit that Jabros got.
Let it just fucking devour people.
Now it's just a rubber dog. Just a rubber dog.
Yeah, maybe you make it a littlecuter and you can have it be and
armadillo give it the armadillo fruit and then it just like the
the armadillo like. And then it can like roll up
into its tire form like an Autobot.

(47:20):
Exactly, dude, So you get it. OK, OK.
I see. I see what you're cooking.
Yeah, and then, you know, like it's an armadillo, but it's
super bouncy and you can use it like a soccer ball when it's all
rolled. I feel bad for kicking that
then. No, he likes it.
You sure? I asked him.
He's he's OK with it. OK, as long as he likes it.
Fuck pervert. All right, fuck me, I guess.

(47:46):
No, not you. Him.
Oh, I see. Because he likes it.
Well, yeah, I mean, he just, he likes the feeling getting kicked
around. Fuck.
Perv. What else could you give the
tire? You give it the door.
Door fruit. And then you like crawl through
the tire and it's like a portal.It's like a little portal.
Oh my God, you could literally teleport.

(48:08):
Yeah, it's a little teleporter to Imagination Land.
You have to army crawl through it to actually teleport anywhere
your big dump truck ass gets stuck in the portal.
Step bro I'm stuck in the tire swing.

(48:30):
I've definitely gotten caught inthe tire swing like.
That oh really? Oh yeah, I'm sick.
Damn boy dude when I was little we used to have a tire swing but
it was it was vertical right? Instead instead of just a whole
tire horizontally with like 4 ropes attached to the tree, no.
Yeah, I was picturing the vertical it was.

(48:51):
Vertical and then you like cut it in half.
Wait. Cut it half.
Yeah, yeah. So like if you stand a tire, if
you stand a tire up, you know, as if it were you were going to
actually roll it, right, Right. But you you cut it in such a way
that you remove the top half of it and then so you have the
bottom half to sit in so. It's just half a donut seat.
Kind of, but you leave a little bit of the where the rim would

(49:14):
be on the tire in order to have some handles.
And then it's a little harder toexplain.
But just know that somebody in my in my childhood was a little
more inventive and decided that they didn't want people's dump
truck asses getting stuck insideregular tire swings.
They said they've had enough. See, I just remember a time when

(49:37):
I was in like first grade out, like there was like construction
being done at at like my school and there was just like one of
those like big ass tires just left there.
Like we weren't supposed to playwith it.
Of course, right. This is, you know, like leftover
construction equipment. And we were playing with it
because fuck you. Makes sense to me it.
Was just a tire and we rolled itand it was a big one.

(50:00):
It was one of them big, you know, tractor tires.
You start doing those football exercises where you just flip it
end to end. Like pick it up on one side, put
it on the. Again, first grade, the stick
was. Look dude, it's never too early
to start getting gains. The best we could do was roll
it. What size tire are we talking

(50:20):
about here For like a bobcat or?Like the big one.
Like I'm talking like John Deeretractor tire.
Oh hell yeah, Like a big. Yeah, baby.
Like if this fell on one of us, it would have killed us.
Give me that strongman tire. Right.

(50:41):
Oh, that's incredible. I love that for you guys.
Good times. Yeah, All right.
Well, you got any more Vega punks for this rubber tire?
Fuck if I know. Smoke.
Smoke so that people could make burning rubber better.
I don't fucking know. They can pretend that they're
that they're peeling out, but they're actually not.
They're just stationary. Yeah.

(51:04):
And they're making the sounds with their voice like.
It's environmentally friendlier.Yeah, yeah, you're getting far
less microplastics in your brain.

(51:27):
It's just in your soul now, all.Right.
Well, I guess that's good enough.
Big a punk. You can have one of those for
free. Go to YouTube in case you ever
want to put a rubber tire with adouble fruit in your universe.
Yeah, with the gum. Gum fruit.
With the gum, Gum fruit, just really.
Yeah. Let us know.
Let us know how that goes. Yeah, give us a filler arc of
what if Luffy was a tire. Yeah, give us cover story, but

(51:51):
make a rubber tire eat the fruit.
What if Luffy ate the tire? Tire fruit?
How about that? Whoa, Would it float even though
it's buoyant? Well, yeah, if there's air in
it, it would probably still. Float.
But like, by that logic, if Luffy inhaled like he's done
billions of times before and landed in the water and held his

(52:13):
breath, would he still float? Well, that's different, right?
Luffy has to actively hold his breath in order to keep the air
in. But if it's a tire, all you do
is close the valve and it's justgood to go, you know?
I guess. Yeah.
There's no, there's no actively holding the air inside.
There's just valve closed. Luffy loses his breath breath
because he touches the water. So if Luffy was, you know, full

(52:35):
of, you know, sucked up air and Leo stitched his mouth, you
know, sealed and his nostrils sono air could get out, he could,
in theory, float. I think Luffy would float.
He wouldn't be able to move because he's touching sea water,
so somebody else would still have to fish him out.
But. Right, right.
Like he'd just be like, you know, bouncing around with the
current. Yeah, I'd I'd say he floats
still. OK, OK.

(52:56):
Just the dumbest conversation ever.
Do you guys think Luffy would float if we taped his mouth
shut? It's a genuine question.
The rules of this universe make no sense.
People would not have to be fishing him out of the Seas so
often if he just sucked in a bunch of air, went gum gum
balloon and then taped his mouthshut first.

(53:18):
That's all I'm saying. Right, like with that anime tape
too. Yeah, anime tape is like fucking
permanent. Just like it sticks forever like
perfect seal. Oh yeah, yeah.
It's a perfect seal it it only comes off when someone else rips
it off. Yeah, and it hurts every time.
And it always leaves a red mark.All right, well, that's it.

(53:40):
Let's get out of here finally. OK.
Thanks for listening to everybody.
Devin, you want to, you want to do the them them things.
We got stuff you could do. There's, you know, link tree
down below, red bubble for stickers.
There's other stuff in there too, you know, like art Discord.
We hang out there sometimes they'll come in like a Cryptid
and comment. You never know.

(54:00):
And once a week, we'll St. Well, I shouldn't even say once
a week, whenever you're doing recordings, you stream your
episode slash special in there. Yeah, most of the time.
Sometimes depends. Depends if I like people that
day. Yeah, I mean, I would argue you
don't like people on any given day, so, right.
All right, but you're still in there streaming sometimes,

(54:25):
right? So you just, you like people a
little bit more those days. Exactly.
I gotcha. It's a very low bar.
Yeah, Yeah. What else is there?
Look at the links. They're there.
There's stuff there. I dare you.
You know, I don't look at my link.
Don't. It's mine.
Wow. It's my link.
Don't do it. Don't you look at my link?

(54:45):
That's a bold, bold choice. Mine and there's Instagram and
stuff but those are mine. You could look, but you can't
touch. Are you satisfied now?
Maybe. Have you sufficiently defended
your property? Maybe I don't know your links.
I got to keep them on their toes.
All right, well, thanks everybody.
