snoobcat

Jack that’s not real right 😭 You didn’t BETRAY US right 😭😭😭

Zipzzty

Wouldn’t mind that

Mr. John Kagurabachi

I hope yall at least watched 234, 235, 236 in succession on your own. It such a vibe kill to separately watch those episodes a week later. It’s like watching half of the Calgara backstory and waiting a week later to finish it. 😭

Kayanolive

One piece before bed! But yeah its gonna be a tough wait now

Mr. John Kagurabachi

It’s crazy to not put these episodes together tbh. They keep splitting up the hype episodes in half 💔

Nami Swannn

Congrats on graduating! It’s a wonderful achievement, a Japan trip is well deserved I hope you have fun!

Dasha

236 NOW OR I’M SPOILING EVERYTHING I KNOW🔫 🔫 🔫 💣 💣 💣 💣😭😭😭😭

Dasha

jk im just hopeless don’t ban me please

Dasha

Crazy that the next drop is in 5 days😀🔫

Dasha

pretty sure they did watch those together cause Cannon commented about that

beannie

2026-10-07 09:00 No way it’s just 2 eps wtf
2025-05-22 23:26

Nash

Jack you said you wouldn’t edge us like Carter would 😭😭

E L

I fear it’s true vongola, lmao. Because in the past, when they uploaded extra op episode, ppl were not appreciative enough and some were just not content. I think it’s canon who mentioned this

Nanami's Wife

My manifestations didn't work again this time yall, I should've put a strawhat on the ground and danced around it chanting "4 one piece ep binge...4 one piece ep binge...." with candles as my light source

mina

ONEEEE PIEEECEEEUUU ‼️

Nash (edited)

Comment edits

2026-10-07 09:00 Can we just get the next two as well? Wouldn’t mind if yall didn’t upload next Tuesday 😭
2025-05-22 23:31

Pace

Is Cinema gek a seperate account? Or is it all in here too. You guys should watch signs 2002 it’s such a good movie

Zipzzty

Peak PIECEUUU

Chill

its in here too, but you need that tier to watch it

E L

I’m never gonna get my hopes up again 💔 ( the way we’re so dramatic 😂 ) It’s all good geks pls dont take my comments srsly 🫣

greyxwaren

still watching but the shipwrights mentioned last episode how franky family are demolishers, their jobs are breaking down ships for wood and materials

Mr. John Kagurabachi

They gassed up the next reactions in the comments and pump faked us 💔

greyxwaren

jack has been real smooth with the sneak glances im dead sdkfglsdk

Mr. John Kagurabachi

We are having a vent session in the discord OP channel come crash out with us

Dasha

Shoutout to McKay for recognizing our goat's VA. Bon Clay's VA is so goated that Oda created a new character specifically for him.

greyxwaren

sanji didn't get a bounty because he's been incognito doing things in the background but missing in action

Mitch

2 eps just like I asked for LFG🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

zoro's enma

had a dream that one piece week was you guys binge watching water 7/ennies lobby 😭 can't wait for next week, peak OP is starting!

Hector

I can already see the comments for next batch

Brady

Hi cannon

sil 🧸ྀི

whenever Overtaken is heard ESPECIALLY for the epic crew walks …. nothing gives me more serotonin than that i fear😮‍💨😮‍💨🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Kayanolive

I could feel the non One Pace with this one

greyxwaren

carter the merry is not even dead and you're already thinking about features you want in the new one LMAOOO he said "you know what gimme that catalogue"

wanira 11

Fun fact: the infamous Arlong park walk was an anime only thing, but Oda loved it so much he decided to add it here in W7

greyxwaren

"do you think we can get a motor?👀"

greyxwaren

?? it was completely fine are you ok??

Janina

don't be shy, drop the second OP upload today 😏

wanira 11

If it's any consolation: I'm pretty sure they watched these episodes and the next two together given Cannons' comment last upload

greyxwaren

it sounded like they have watched up till 236 from canon's comment or am i crazy?

mina

I need to know the schedule for one peak I need to see these episodes man 💔

Mr. John Kagurabachi

I thought so too but I think canon is referring to the keel stuff in this episode

greyxwaren

tuesdays and thursdays

Kayanolive

I'd say im okay, id just had a these typical Toei scenes where they hover a shot for ages or show random reaction shots. Maybe the Manga and One Pace spoiled me in terms of pacing. Having seen/read all versions, Toei's pacing is super noticeable to me.

wanira 11

I thought it was fine here, those long shots really work if there's a dramatic moment

mina

waiting till tuesdays gonna hurt

Dasha

"looks like the Merry is going" why no one made this joke before it's HILARIOUS

E L

I know, haha just want to see those

Watcher123

Am i the only one who is happy that they are getting a bigger ship. i couldnt care less about the merry

greyxwaren

i dont know how one pace spoiled you with their pacing when they smushed 2 episodes in one and kept 99% of the original episode lmaooo i just checked it for you too we say water 7 pacing is fine because the saved minutes in water 7 are 32.82% meaning no issue in pacing especially not early on. tiktok fried yall's brains if you cant watch a show unless on x2 speed

Dasha

Yeah I’m pretty sure they watched 236. I was joking that I’m gonna spoil everything from the future arcs. McKay was probably saying “yall ain’t ready for how furious you gonna be tomorrow when we post this diabolical cliffhanger”

Dasha

maybe it’s the first time I can say “yes” to “am I the only one” comment

Mitch

Tik tok brain!

Kayanolive

Im fine with watching 5 hour youtube videos or whatever im not even really on those apps. No idea why people are getting this upset over the fact that i think the pacing was a lil slow with these episodes? I dont see a reason the get ugly over this

Nanami's Wife

I love how Usopp is one of Jack's favorites in the crew. I think he or it was alluded that he was when they first began watching One Piece. If I'm mistaken tho, we still love Usopp and the boys locking in for him Every time I see Luffy being serious, you know some shit is about to go down😂 With Luffy being 1 by default in my favorite on the crew, Sanji is my 3rd favorite and one thing I love about him is his lines/comebacks/sassy comments. His lines to me are the best in the crew or show

AV

this

Dasha

Sanji is not underrated because I exist. I am enough to cover all the love a character could ever need.🙏❤️🧘

greyxwaren

no one is upset buddy it's the fact that you said one pace would be better when they hardly removed anything. i know hating on toei is easier i guess but give them credit where credit is due. this episode needed the pauses, they received horrible news, they saw their friend get beaten multiple times trying to get money for a ship they cant repair. if this was sped up (again one pace kept it exactly as it is btw) none of the emotional highs would've landed

Natacha

your pfp is incredible

Kayanolive

Im mainly talking about stuff where it seemed like the whole show slowed down or the show puddles of blood and everything stops. Im not even talking about the Franky House Walk or anything. There are lots of tiny things that i feel like are dragged out. And one pace is still working on arcs (W7 included) since those cuts are old. And i guess it was faster in my memory but asking if im okay and all this other passive aggressive shit is just kinda whack imo.

Dasha

and yours is so heart warming😭 when we get there with geks I’m gonna go so crazy oh gosh

Nanami's Wife

The Geks forgot the other time the boys spinned the block was Arlong Park😂 I also love how much the Geks love Merry, we love her❤️

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Everyone in the comments gonna reach enlightenment with the amount of patience and virtue we will have to endure 🙏

Noel Pena

I was good till the lazy writing part😂😂

Rhettoric

YESSS, so good! Mckay was on fire, calling out Mr. 2's VA and calling the Franky Family "gimpy" lmfao. The music in episode 234 is great, especially when they find Usopp's beaten body and when Chopper transforms into horn point. These next 2 are about to COOK

Dasha

I love that this is a safe place for Sanji fans😭 I’m so tired of his toxic haters everywhere

Rhettoric

SANJI FANS UNITE ‼️

E L

And me! He’s my goat 🥰

Nanami's Wife

I swear I turn into a hardcore lawyer whenever I see Sanji hate, I gotta defend our left-hand man. He's too precious ❤️

E L

Also he’s the 3rd most popular op character for a reason. A lot of ppl appreciate him 😌

Alex

I love when Luffy gets serious. it's such a common trope for shounen protagonists to be goofy as hell so when they get serious it hits extra hard... but it never hits quite as hard as when Luffy does it. Always peak.

Dasha

Oh did Jack say that about Usopp? Looks like I missed something. That’s surprising, I love Usopp appreciation

greyxwaren

im not trying to be aggressive but the pacing is completely fine the geks didn't even complain about the pacing themselves when they usually do. and the majority agree on water 7 specifically not needing one pace. and here's a lil info since im in the one pace discord. when they say they're still working on arcs that were done they mean they'll fix some arcs with weird cuts like skypiea, add better subtitles or higher quality episodes but their cuts remain the same since it's following the manga. and these episodes follow the manga to a T. the pauses and them showing blood ot whatever is a DIRECTIONAL choice which works perfectly in setting the mood. hell it got the geks who don't appreciate usopp to feel bad for him. again i didn't try to come across as passive aggressive and if it seemed that way apologize, but carter expressed how he wants to have the organic one piece experience, pushing one pace when it is not needed is going against their wishes. you've had your experience let them have theirs.

Dee

They could never make me hate you Usopp 😢

Nanami's Wife

He didn't exactly say it but I remember Mckay said in the 12hr One Piece binge that he recognized Usopp because Jack had him on his keychain or car or something like that. So, I just assumed since then that he has him as one of his faves. Plus on the rewatch he never once hated on Usopp as much as the other guys, so I can tell he appreciates him❤️

Dasha

Oh I see thanks!!

Kayanolive

They can watch whatever they prefer i just didnt really like a few moments. That nami riding scene stood out for example. Thats all really. And im also on the One Pace Discord so i know that they are at Orange Town or Syrup Village with their reedits iirc. Hope this topic is done now. didnt expect my opinion to turn into all this. Thx for apologizing tho🤝

Dasha

betrayals on every step this arc

wanira 11

I'm at WCI right now and I've never loved Sanji more, he became my second favourite strawhat and I'm not even done with the arc

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Syrup Village Ussop out performs LeBron in his peak. Pipe down lil pup 🗣️🔥💯

Jimmy

In terms of ship weight: yes a ship’s weight has a big impact on buoyancy and draft. More weight added can affect the ships ability to float and how deep it sinks in water at rest. Most metals are heavy, so to counteract how much weight you are adding to the frame you’d have to add hella support to the surrounding structure to make sure the tension and weight being added is distributed properly and not all in a concentrated area.

fyre

Usopp is my favourite Straw Hat after Luffy easily. He’s the most realistic Straw Hat. I’ve come to like Zoro less and less. The badass, emotionless, nonchalant trope gets tiring and boring. I value Usopp’s friendship with Luffy more than I do anything else. Luffy did all this, not because they messed with his crew but because they messed with Luffy’s best friend. Being “epic” and “aura-farming” doesn’t interest me, I’ll leave that to lesser animes. I like that McKay mentioned Usopp has something to prove, nobody else seemed to mention his character.

Dasha

wanira, oh... are you ok? what episode are you at? I'm sorry for everything you go through in that arc right now

Kayanolive

Have a great trip and stay safe

Drakon

dont worry the merry is safe or is it? idk 😉

wanira 11

Hahah it was rough there for a while but I love what this arc is doing for his character. I always knew Sanji was deeper then he seemed and this arc finally gave context, I love it. I'm currently at ep 827 :)

Dasha

you'll see my fav moment pretty soon! it's in the very end of the arc. it destroyed me completely but I love how amazingly written that was anyway enjoy!!

Kayanolive

Usopp kinda is just s regular guy on a ship with monsters. He grew on me for sure!

Michael H

Dang, Zoro catching strays! You feed with the one hand as you sucker punch with the other lol. But, yeah, I like Usopp too.

wanira 11

Tyy ❤ am real excited to continue

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Captain Ussop commands over 10,000 men. He has slain countless sea kings, single-handedly crushed the souls of every Warlord, and owns control of the entire Grand Line. All with his left hand behind his back, blindfolded. GOAT Ussop too busy becoming the Pirate King. You and LeBron can have fun with the “NBA” tho hahaha 😂 🫵

fyre

lol don’t get me wrong, I love all the Straw Hats. I just find Zoro a bit generic compared to the others.

EmlovesOP

Luffy being serious gives me chills and scares me to like woah

greyxwaren

they have watched the episodes not sure when they'll drop it though

2026-10-07 09:00 Looking forward to seeing McKay’s reaction to ep 236. Probably was smiling so hard ☠️☠️☠️
2025-05-23 01:16

greyxwaren

yall jack confirmed they watch up till episode 236 we’re good they were referring to that

JD Galbraith

Yeah boys. Who do you think we will add to the crew, a shipwright I mean?

fia

happy birthday to usopp's va‼️‼️ he's the goat (L from death note, Feitan from hxh, Inuyasha, Ranma, Shinichi from detective conan, even bugs bunny in the jp dub and many awesome guys more)

JD Galbraith

Ow owwww! Loved the look over this episode lol

Spideycain

To me I feel like if you care about ship then you should let it rest cuz that’s like saying…I don’t wanna go deep but it’s like one of your family members on there death bed hurting bad even tho they don’t wanna tell you but you can see that it’s there time to go so like pull the plug to me honestly it’s selfish to keep sailing the merry

Dasha

love your pfp

cozo

25:44 ayo

fia

mop

beannie

usopp crying breaks my heart in a million pieces ngl, since he's lying all the time, him being vulnerable for the 1st time with nami is some nice lil development for his character imo tbh, every time ya'll bring up devil fruits i get a bit anxious cause theres ppl in this fandom that dont give a fck when it comes to spoiling others lol. all i can say is that the lore is juicy and you won't be disappointed!!

Nami Swannn

They always say the randomest things in their ending discussions but little do they know how much they’re cooking 😭

Qhoa

Jack

😂

Pudding

Hahahaha you're so right, can't wait😂

TrueCrisp

in that end discussion dont forget about smoker's motercycle thing that thing is awesome

McKay Carter

I was hoping someone would catch that lol

beannie

his range is insane

Michael H

Hey, I may have missed their decision; are they just doing One Pace from now on? I’m cool with that, but I know they were on the fence for a while.

beannie

they’re watching this arc on crunchyroll, they will switch to one pace whenever it’s needed, for example TB, and ofc all the future arcs that drag a lot

Rayanh Shequinah Nansha

Completely the opposite for me. At this point of the anime, Usopp is my least favorite Straw Hat and as someone who’s caught up with the manga, he’s my second to least favorite. What I love about Zoro is his unwavering loyalty to Luffy, how he keeps a cool head in most situations and how many of his insightful moments have proven him worthy of being Luffy’s #2. He used to be a lot more easy going and prone to laughter when they first became a crew, but you can tell how seriously he’s taking this pirate life and the danger that comes with it by the subtle shift in seriousness his character took overtime. He’s my second favorite Straw Hat and as far as his rank in the anime, he’s my third favorite character, right after Luffy and Ace.

Ryker

greyxwaren your the goat for manifesting this

Mauricio.

No way that I heard the iconic Wendy Williams' "Denial is a river in Egypt...." hahaha so funny.

Sandi uchiha

Cannon don’t give a frick about the going merry😂

Michael H

Oh, wow, I didn’t even notice they switched back to OG. This arc is so well-paced it is hard to tell; the titles just looked One Pacey.

E L

not one of us 💔

fay

omg he voiced feitan?? definitely didnt catch that...

Marcus D

What led to Luffy’s decision of letting go of Merry, at least what I got from all of this; Is that back at the shipyard, along with luffy taking the shipwright’s assessment seriously, Iceberg’s words about being a bad captain by risking your crew on an unstable ship really got to Luffy, but he was still coping, with his loyalty to/love of the Merry still being in forefront of his mind. However soon after when luffy saw one of his crew-mates in a dangerous state and after going through a serious battle just for the sake of a crew-mate, he sobered up and realised he has to prioritise the safety of his crew rather than indulging his sentimental feelings.

Marcus D

One way to tell, Michael, regular one piece has Mid cards, One pace doesn’t.

Marcus D

I don’t want to hint to it too specifically but one of them ,seemingly un-seriously, just called a big future plot point lol.

Marcus D

What timing, Yamaguchi the goat

Nami Swannn

About a certain someone from the current anime arc right? Cuz that was a crazy accurate offhanded comment to make 😭

Alex

the bravest straw hat 😢

Nami Swannn

Usopp pulling sympathy from MCKAY…oh it’s serious…

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Carter trying hard to justify buying the Going Merry Lego set. Luffy gave up on the merry, it’s gone :(

fia

he's the goat indeed. the man's line up is insane. he's like the barbie of voice actors

Marcus D

Just want to point out that Usopp usually runs away from conflicts and always tries to avoid pain. Yet in epsiode 233 he goes OUT OF HIS WAY to storm into the den of the enemies who beat him up, alone. Then even when he was being trampled all over by them, all he was focused on was Franky who was walking away with the money he was responsible for, the only reason he went to fight. That’s why although he’s annoying I can never hate usopp, he always tries to do the right thing when it matters, even when the odds are against him.

Niko

Thank you all!!!

Marcus D

Haven’t finished the outro yet so probably not, it was said during the episodes watch.

Pace

Ah I see

Marcus D

WCI arc is goated, in my top 3 arcs, enjoy Warrin. It also debuts my 3rd favourite one piece character (🍩)

Marcus D

@Dasha I know exactly what you’re talking about! and the whole sequence it was in was so good!!! I can hear it right now(iykyk) PEAK😤😭

Michael H

Yeah, that’s what I thought. Not sure why the titles threw me off—I don’t remember them being so blocky and without the lag time with the subtitles 🤷🏽

Marcus D

Also just want to say, Blackbeard’s log raft, peak ship design in all of one piece

Marcus D

I’m so surprised yet all for McKay’s love for the going merry! Hell yeah, we got him boys(and girls).

Marcus D

I JUST SAW IT LOL goated, and youre right, they have so many random spot on predictions.

Kite

me need more

Nami Swannn

I still remember Cannon saying smth that basically predicted THAT reveal (N*k*) 😭?? It’s insane but I guess it makes sense with a show like OP where literally anything can happen, even the most outlandish comments lol

Marcus D

You aren’t ready bro, 😭. Enjoy experiencing this for the first time, because you will never be able to again.

Marcus D

Yep that’s exactly it, McKay has also had caught on to something for a while now that has to do with (N*K*) too.

Nick K

Not just devil fruits, but like half the questions they have or statements they make I just know there are people who want to say "well actually..." and will inadvertently spoil something but I'm hoping they chill

julia

I respect luffy for that! He can make big decisions real quick when it gets serious!

Matt Haloostock

That seen where Nami finds Usopp on the ground surrounded by spectators always hits so hard

Watcher123

sorry i dont feel bad for a ship. i understand people who were watching when it was getting released weekly because it was probaly years. but for me it was 3 months and didnt care

E L

“Midnight can tie me up” 😳 lmfaooo

Matt Haloostock

I meant to mention something sooner but the costumes and masks that some people are wearing in Water 7 are a real thing in Venice. I learned it somewhat recently myself. People dress up in elaborate costumes for the Venice Carnival, which is around the beginning of lent each year. The designs some people come up with are truly impressive, and some a kinda creepy too

Dreamknight942

I’m so glad you guys are so invested, especially McKay. Im genuinely so happy he’s enjoying the show. I knew he would, but he is so into it, I love it!

Mahti

Mckay is sad since Ussop didn't die 😢😂

kuza

REVENGE

Mahti

I'm the opposite too, Ussop being useless scared and screaming trope gets old, still like him but Zoro is my boy, the rock of the crew and the most loyal plus Choppers big bro.

Mahti

You can slightly feel it if you really think about it, but it really doesn't bother me here.

1999

“Is Franky MF DOOM?” 🤣

prigumon

adding onto what jack said, iceberg calling him out as a captain was a big hit on luffy and a wake up call for him really. his stubbornness to keep merry would not only put the rest of his crewmates (who have entrusted their lives and trust to him) lives in danger but it would honestly be cruel to merry as well. it made him think things and lock in for sure.

Zipzzty

IT WAS TODAY THANKS JACK

Zipzzty

Enjoy peak

Zipzzty

Brave Warrior Of The Sea

Zipzzty

Fr It’s like losing a fight in school and everyone is watching

fyre

Yeah I just see Zoro as generic and boring. A standard macho tough guy that literally every anime has. Usopp has something to prove. If he was brave, he would have achieved his dream and left the crew, but that would be poor writing. He’s more realistic and open with his emotions and he’s the only one on the crew with no formal training or supernatural ability. He’s a regular human that is easily stronger and braver than most people in the real world and the One Piece world. It’s the contrast to the rest of the crew that people seem to hate. I love his character, call him useless all you want, but I value his dynamic with the Straw Hats more than any combat ability. They wouldn’t have even made it to the Grand Line without him anyway.

Marcus D

Cook Zipzzty

fia

u won't be able to unhear it now

beannie

real, I’ve already seen ppl say stuff like “wait til they found out about ____” name dropping things the geks have yet to see😭 trying to feel clever or idk what’s their point

Rayanh Shequinah Nansha

Wouldn’t say he’s “braver than most,” but I guess what we’re trying to say is he’s not a rare type of character. Just like there’s always a Zoro, there’s also always a Usopp; both done in different degrees. I never vibe with Usopp types. It’s really just a matter of taste. And for me what’s lovable about Zoro isn’t necessarily all you mentioned, but rather his dedication to the crew and most of all, to Luffy. Luffy couldn’t have asked for a better right-hand, and because I love Luffy so much, I can only love Zoro for who he is even more.

fyre

I think Usopp is easily braver than most. He fights monsters with nothing but his wit and a slingshot. Idk about you but that sounds insane to me. From my perspective, Usopp’s loyalty is to his friends moreso than the cohesion of a pirate crew. Zoro seems more intent on the honor, culture and tradition of the pirate crew structure. I do agree that maybe we just like different things. I find Zoro a bit of a buzzkill but that’s his job i guess.

jrnoodles

Thank you! Ussop made me both hate him more and like him more in this arc. More to say in future reactions videos.

MegMegMegg

It's also like forcing a pet to keep going when they're in too much pain, it would be cruel to put Merry through more unnecessary pain when they could let her pass peacefully. I think that's what the Galley-La shipwrights were trying to get him to realize and that combined with your take led him to his decision.

MegMegMegg

You guys are right Franky and Bon Clay have the same voice actor, I was happy Mckay clocked it so fast! Kazuki Yao deserves all the recognition!

Fernando

Brain brain fruit lol

Marcus D

Yes that’s correct, it is said during this saga, hasn’t happened yet. please like my comment so I can delete right after. And maybe delete the whole comment lol, to not risk others spoiling or geks seeing.

Fatipapi (Byakuya’s Girl)

Aaaah so it’s said here, i was wondering if it had been said or if i was imagining it. Yasss imma delete it! Thank you Marcus 🫶🏼

desolate leng

Anything that displaces a larger volume of water than itself will float, the weight is not the issue! About the devil fruits, they were rare in East Blue, but not in the Grand Line (there was a line about this in the Baratie arc, IIRC). Possibly because people with powers flock to the GL as pirates, possibly for other reasons. The announcer girl in the water lift is a reference to the elevator girls that the department stores in Japan used to employ! Their jobs were to press the button of the floor the customer asked for and announce the floors and what goods were on which floors. Back in the early 2000s when Oda wrote the chapter this episode is based on they were still fairly common. There might still be a few places that employ them, but not many. I think it says a lot that Usopp can be so open with Nami in a way that he can’t with the rest of the crew. While Nami doesn’t have any hangups about being weaker than the others she still understands how it feels, and I think that creates a special understanding between the two of them. Also, I think it’s great that they have this bond, having someone who really gets it amongst a crew of people with monstrous strength. It’s a shame they removed so much of the blood in this scene, though. In the manga he looks absolutely destroyed. https://i.imgur.com/pNgZ6ax.png (Nami carrying the suitcase like that is just the anime being weird. She carries it normally in the manga.) Yeah, Franky’s line about Usopp sounds ambiguous in Japanese as well. More, even, lol. And here’s the second instance with the blood: https://i.imgur.com/UZbwH2b.gif

desolate leng

@mahti yeah I do get what kaya means, there were a couple of shots where they hovered just a little too long that it started to verge on ridiculous. But I'd say it's a nitpick. This early in the arc there is practically no padding. Well, aside from the recaps. I dislike how the midcards break the moments, but that's a different issue.

Marcus D

Can confirm the elevator people still exist in the fancy departments stores in the cities lol. That used to be a thing everywhere though at one time, in developed countries.

desolate leng

Makes sense that the fancier places still have them! I haven't been back for a few years, but there were fewer and fewer places employing them each time I went

Liza

Like to see you guys care about Usopp hahaha after all the sad talks about him which I get. It's nice to see this though. Mckay saying "I don't like this" when Usopp is getting jump by the Franky family but he said he would bet on all his berries to give up Usopp to the foxy crew (I think that's what he said it but not too sure) but anyways I liked seeing concerned look on your guys face because you cared enough about Usopp.

Dakota

Lmaooooo McKay "looks like the Merry is... going"
