One Piece - 235/236

its deeper than the ship bro its all an analogy of how he feels where his place is in the crew ussop masks his true feelings all the time and then uses up an excuse to act the way he does obviously hes going about this the wrong way but thats just how his character has been up till this point

Lil yeeter

Ussops such a little girl bro 😂 mad dramatic for no reason

Novel Hossain

ron; my brother and I got into a physical altercation a few years ago and i still cry every time I think about it man, the empathy is real with you brother. You are a truly good person and it shines through in a lot of reactions

Braden S

Same Ron, same...

Silvana

You think he couldn't beat the franky family due to lack of trying? He did well against luffy cause 1. He knows him a lot more 2. 1v1 3. He had a lot of time to prepare, which makes a huge difference for someone like him. If you think he was a bitch you're just failing to see things from his perspective

Hamza

I love u 2

Thiago Gaspar

THIS ARC GONNA DESTROY THEM @@@@

PaT_-

Like you try this hard to beat the crap out of luffy while he couldn’t do shit to the franky guys

Strawhat Gabo

Yeah idc what anyone says usuopp was a bitch this arc annoyed the shit out of me

Strawhat Gabo

I LOVE THIS ARC SO MUCH!!!!! 😭😭😭

Cathy

Ron is Such a REAL Man for this!!! I always have respect for Him 🤝🏿 As Men we have to become more comfortable showing emotions and healthily letting them out 🙏🏿

Mistah Gaga

It is an objectively sad scene that anyone should be sad about, whether they relate to it or not.

Jesse Hanssen

as everyone should be. It is an objectively sad scene that anyone should be sad about, whether they relate to it or not.

Jesse Hanssen

I’ve rewatched this reaction a couple times now. Eager for tonight’s episodes and thoughts on these episodes in the intro.

Parmvir Dhugha

Peak storytelling this arc, can't wait for tonight's episodes

ShaquanVirse

I can never watch these episodes without crying like a baby, all the journeys , the bonds, the memories made up until this point seemingly just dissipates to nothingness. I feel for Luffy & Usuopp and all there tuff decisions that they had to make but that’s just a part of being man of your word, values, & standards & not buckling or changing for no one… not even your closest friends and family.🙁💔

Ynfeli

Personally, I think Usopp's anger isn't really directed at Luffy, but at himself. He's been silently doubting his place and abilities within the crew for a while, and now he's reached his breaking point. He still can’t face the fears he's been avoiding... fears about himself and Merry. The only way he knows how to cope is through a duel, like his favorite Elbaf warriors, hoping to prove—if there is any chance—that he's not as useless as he feels, by protecting the nakama he loves the most.

Guy Buddy

It's awesome when you think about the whole "I get to be the captain" was just a gag... and yet here we are. Ussop fighting the capt for the ship...

Misael Matute

When you think about the fact that some of Luffy's attacks knocked out fisherman and warlords, it's crazy that Ussop was even able to survive that hit... .

Misael Matute

I mean the comments did tell you to have your handkerchiefs ready lol

Misael Matute

I love the raw emotions that i see come out of y’all’s reactions. One of my favorite episodes in one piece for how real it is and One piece does a great job of reigniting past emotions. Hopefully you work through whatever it is that brought those emotions up. Love you guys! ❤️

Jumpy Bumpy

This is my all time favorite arc. I rewatch and reread a certain scene a bunch of times! Thanks for the great reaction!

Awkwardly Being me

Lmao I cried and rewatched this episode with my friends a bunch of times 😭 love one piece

Awkwardly Being me

I’m crying with you all 😭

keniskandar

Sogeking is a w!!

Area0

I live in South Carolina and our power been out 3 days now because of the hurricane Helene been charging my phone in the car😅

Area0

This comment perfectly encapsulates everything. Well said!

Zane Tibbits

I think it's easy to resonate with Ron when watching these kind of shows and the powerful messages behind them because of the understanding one can have. Express and control. Love y'all.

BvldoDLaw

I cried like crazy when I see Ron at the end. Damnnnnn......

ListenHome李勝宏

I had to stop the vid a couple times bc of how uncomfortable usopp was being. I dislike how usopp was (understandably) selfish but he didn’t have to put that unnecessary burden on luffy when everyone else knew that the merry was on her last breath. Usopp killed their friendship signal handedly and brought down the crew morale with him. Glad zoro is the only one not being completely manipulated by his emotions. Truly sad ep tho more so bc of how luffy feels.

BTTR call MIKE

Not everything has to recorded, if he felt like he needed a break its totally fine, let out those emotions Ron. This is how we heal 🖤 no judgment and keep being yourselves, love the videos

Bernie 999

We’re not even close there why bring that up

Light

Not me crying with Merry

Revolution To Evolution

OMG this is not fun anymore, STOP😭😭😭

Revolution To Evolution

it's been about a year. I've been with sushi squad since they started one piece

Liana P

That escalated quickly ahh episodes

Epidemic

The irony, uh? Usopp’s best fight, where he shows he is not weak, is against Luffy, one of the only people who has never thought of him as weak.

BashaM

And the arc is only getting started.. my absolute favorite scene is in this arc, and it’s a real tear jerker

Jordan

I remembered watching this episode for the first time. I dreamed of Usopp and Luffy and I was crying in my dreams too. Damn!

IJALS

Hits too close to home based on what he said earlier.

Meteor

smh

Smoore

Rewatch YES

Saith Uchiha

Parmvir Dhugha

Dudeee, this brings back memories from the first time I watched this.... Thanks for letting me relive those memories.

Jonhy0700

I’m shocked y’all 236 episodes in already. It feels like y’all started not too long ago

Lemmiwnks

They should make Usopp fight like this more times, 99% of the time he is crying and fooling around xD

Rui Duarte

I can't wait for the incident in Sabaody reaction

jiwon330

Are we watching the same show man ? 😭😭

EnzoTorales

Love this arc so much, one of my favorites!

Firewolf

man yall we just getting started🥲… buckle up

la flame

Damn man I tear up every time during this episode, gonna miss usopp being part of the crew. Hope you feel better Ron 🙏🏽😔

Manny Garcia

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Manny Garcia

😔😔😔😔

Manny Garcia

i watched this shit twice just to feel something again

Seb

this arc was my favorite and the reason how I started loving One Piece. it's so sad tho

Coleone Sengsakda

Usopp is a big L this arc

Tom Selmer

Zoro is my vice-captain 💪 real stud

Focus Fresh

What a wild take. Usopp did not almost defeat Luffy and Zoro wasn't "itching to kill" anyone.

Relaric

Oda has never said that, the rumour was traced back to an old Reddit post. It’s more canonical to say Zoro would never kill his friends after losing Kuina. What’s more we know Luffy would never kill nor want to kill anyone, Oda confirmed in SBS 30.

Yaz

Ron are you okay? something must’ve hit you in the end :((

koza

USOPP SAN 😓

koza

Oh the good times with a full crew 🫡 even if Usopp wasn’t a fighter, he was the one taking care of Merry during their journey, and he had an even more special bond with Merry as she was a gift from Kaya, Usopp’s booboo. Which is why Usopp was the only one holding in to Merry until the end

Pizza_Mozzarella

Had to have been personal to Ron in some way. I almost lost my bestfriend cuz of a fight and can't imagine if it actually happened and then seeing this years later. That's how i would feel

Antonio Ricardo

Yes her arm is a bit flattened against her body, making her tricep look bigger

Antonio Ricardo

Or you could go be condescending somewhere else

Aaron williams

She built different bro careful if Ron sees this bro

Ron Jackson Jr

If you’re asking me then no I don’t think he was ever close. Usopp did damage for sure, more than expected from him. But Luffy was always winning.

Parmvir Dhugha

You really think Usopp was close to defeating Luffy?

Hélio Junior

Usopp just lost badly to Franky and co. He was "responsible" for the money and he couldn't even do that... which led to his insecurity add him being weaker than the monster trio, feeling like he has nothing to contribute. Then being told they're going to get a new ship because the merry can't go on anymore... it was the last straw for him. To him it felt like being told that the merry is replaceable and if the ship is replaceable in his mind he was also replaceable and before they could replace him he made the decision himself That's just how I saw the scene... which is kinda sad. To me each and every straw hat is irreplaceable every one has something they can contribute to the crew. But he just couldn't see it in that way in his current mindset...

Christina H.

That’s if Luffy asked. And Luffy would never. Zoro would never get in between their duel even if Luffy was near death. A duel is between 2 individuals and Zoro respects that. Just like when they left Luffy and Aokiji alone after Luffy challenged him to a duel. There isn’t any interfering.

Parmvir Dhugha

Saith Uchiha for sure bro 👊 I miss ur jokes btw

Ron Jackson Jr

As someone who had a very traumatic childhood I’d ask you and everyone to mind your own business. I’m not trying to start anything I’m just saying to bring stuff like that hurts a lot. My father tried to off me and my mom before I was 10 that should be enough to not need a back story. It’s not a story it’s trauma.

Saith Uchiha

Exactly. It's GOda's writing.

Liana P

just thinking about all those moments makes me wanna cry

Liana P

Zoro would never. He is a tough guy but no doubt he loves his crew mates. Even when Sanji hit Luffy, Zoro didn’t care. This crew is more like a family. That’s why this episode hurt so much.

Parmvir Dhugha

Michelle I’m at 35:23 are those muscles or is your arm just press down against your body? Because I’ve worked out for 2 years mostly my arms and my biceps are not as toned as that.

Saith Uchiha

That is why I get why Ron felt that way in the end.

Liana P

Zoro is the only one understanding the whole situation and being the rock of the crew. That's one of the reasons he always has been in my top 3 OP characters.

Liana P

Saith Uchiha

Did you think nothing can make you cry? Well One Piece can. That's my case anyways.

Liana P

Man..... even the Merry crying. It all feels so much more real.

Liana P

You guys have to understand besides the friendship aspect theirs still order of authority on a pirate ship or their will be chaos Luffy no matter how dumb or if you disagree is captain and once he makes a hard decision that’s it..

kidCash3

yeah i know Ron it hurts...A lot...

Uchiha Itachi

Not following captain orders and blatant disrespect I don’t blame Luffy at all

kidCash3

As a HVAC tech trust me you need to be there for 30mins max. We truthfully love working without the home owner. Be blunt and honest idk the repairs you need but ask politely if you need to be there for everything. They’ll say no but we will need you ASAP when we finish.

Saith Uchiha

how am i not a real fan just by comparing the two people do that all the time, ur just calling ron and michelle fake fans

Dashaun Nuckles

That era of One Piece when Usopp was still part of the crew was something else man... I miss it

Leo Rover

Makes me wonder what Ron’s childhood was like. We need to get some backstory of that for sure

Ron Jackson Jr

Woooosh.... Went straight over ur head

Gjermund Norum Bugge

Usopp is selfish here, but it is completely understandable. This scene is so incredible... I also do not think he chose emotion over fact. The Going Merry is an actual part of the crew. A dear Nakama. He is about to lose the ship, off course it is a really hard situation, they all feel the same about Merry, but the ship obviously is even more special to Usopp. He has been tending to the ship the entire Journey.

Gjermund Norum Bugge

Ye

Ron Jackson Jr

We all felt the same way Ron!

Zerato

His selfishness is understandable. It’s a symbol of his friendship with Kaya his childhood friend.

Spicxgg

thats not fair because Naruto fans do the same thing,you cant even call both of them fans,real fans just enjoy their favourite anime without talking shit or compare it to other shows

Miguel Nobre

He is selfish.. he choose the emotion over “fact”

Snow Freezer

It’s easy to get annoyed at Usopp for taking Luffy on seriously but if the duel was close range, Luffy wouldn’t have held back at the start either. They both have too much pride, the irony is that Usopp feels too worthless at the moment to see his own strength when it comes to long range attacks. These episodes are important, they show the crew doesn’t just have a blind devotion to Luffy, they respect him. Usopp took him seriously in a duel, Sanji kicked out when he seen Luffy was about to say something he’d regret, Zoro let his captain take the hits he needed to, even Chopper and Nami put their own feelings aside to let Luffy captain.

Yaz

Aside from Mr.2 (Bon-chans) sacrifice by helping the crew to escape in Alabasta, and Luffys flashback. This was basically the first time we saw Luffy crying seriously. It hit so heavily seeing such a positive force cry and emotionally hurt. We feel you Ron. ❤️

JP Bandoy

And the story keeps getting better and better

Jannis Hornberg

When Luffy cry, we cry

Gallant Sector

Peak piece

A

Oh yeah when they missed her. lol I forgot about that but yeah that’s different since it was like for comedic reasons.

Parmvir Dhugha

Usopp got that One Piece 👊🏽

Chris619

I feel you bro

Emil

just started watching the upload, they look so happy

Minori D. Hunter

Guilt, inferiority complex, immaturity and a complex bond with the Merry. This is what led Usopp to confront Luffy. On top of that, Luffy also lacks maturity as a captain. He sees that his crew is going through a difficult time so he tries to position himself to keep control of events. Even if it can be perceived badly. Let's not forget that Luffy and Usopp are the youngest members of the crew (apart from Chopper). They're only 17 years old! So we witnessed the fight between two young brothers in a way.

Nicholas Kent

one of the best one piece episodes ever .. great reaction as always .. it hurts more if you have been in the same situation as luffy

Immortal Art

And I also would like to say how much I appreciate and love Zoro in these episodes! ❤🙏🏻❤🙏🏻 He proves once again why he is the Vice Captain and why he is so important to the crew, and especially for Luffy. Luffy would definitely be completely crushed without Zoro's support and strong words... Zoro is always there to catch Luffy and the other Straw Hats when they don't know what to do. In these situations you can always see the sense of duty that Zoro has as a Vice Captain and how much he respects Luffy and his decisions. He is just the big brother and the shield of the Straw Hats! 💚💚💚 Man, I just love this cute moss head with all my heart! 💚💚💚

RorotheShadow

Unless you’ve been in this situation irl you cannot understand the weight of the pressure. It’s a lot because you have to do what’s right but you also love what you have to let go. One Piece is peak storytelling

Spicxgg

One Piece has made me cry more than I care to admit. There is no other show with so many emotionally impactful moments

Mahti

Atleast he didn't yawn this time 😭

Mo za

Ninjas cutting onions behind the camera

Mahti

Hugs Ron, I can somewhat relate I think, from past relationships or even friendships. and every time I tell myself the words that really changed me. from Haikyuu, Hinata says to Kindaichi when he asks if Kageyama is doing okay "not being able to back down and fight is normal for friends" sometimes the emotions need to com out and erupt and they become someone we used to know but if the bond is truly real then after erupting and facing each other, you come back with the bond stronger than ever. those are the real lifelong bonds to cherish every single day. much love to you both ❤️

Ananth Varma

Exactly! When I think of 'Water 7,' this opening is the first thing that comes to mind. Even though I was young, I still can't forget the emotions I felt when I first saw each opening. I know spoilers are important to them, so now that there are no spoilers, I want to share these openings with them.

pp

also the way ron ended the reaction was so fucking real. I was face deep in my pillow ballin my eyes out first time watching this

aidan decristofaro

I cried so hard watching these episodes. It's so authentic and realistic how the show/manga uses the wording of a conflict. That was the first time i got really heartbroken in One Piece and for me one of the best OP moments of all for some reason. I can just relate so much.. And One Piece always got me out of all seriousness bc of all the goofyness it contains nearly every episode. But this broke my perspective on One Piece. Oda is such an insane writer for building all of that up. Even in this reaction my breath kind of stopped the whole time while watching these episode, my head turned red and i couldn't talk to my friend bc i knew my voice will be broken and i'll fall into a big hole of sorrow and crying again. 10/10 Masterpiece Episodes.

tris273

Fr

RorotheShadow

I'm so glad you guys understood the complexity of this whole situation! 🙏🏻🙏🏻When I watched One Piece for the first time, I read so many comments that were just toxic and hateful towards Usopp. They said he was a damn traitor and that they were glad he left the crew because he was just ungrateful and useless. They were just idiots who didn't understood anything! 🤦🏻‍♀🤦🏻‍♀ Usopp is just one of the most realistic characters in all of One Piece and I love him because of that! Usopp has thoughts and opinions about himself that we've all had at some point in our lives. And just the fact that he said he'd been thinking about leaving the crew for a while so he wouldn't get in the way of the others, especially Luffy, and cause them problems. That statement alone proves that his friends, especially Luffy's dream of becoming the King of the Pirates, are important to him because he's willing to break up with them so he won't get in their way anymore. But of course Luffy doesn't care if Usopp is strong or weak, he only cares about Usopp as a person, as a friend, but unfortunately Usopp has an too negative image of himself at this time, so he's not able to see that. And that's completely understandable and realistic! We've all been in a situation like that before... This scene really makes me cry every time, because I know how terrible and painful it is to fight with your friends, who you actually love... 💔💔 💔

RorotheShadow

Ts always hit hard man

Arz.09

Word

Arz.09

I keep saying this the whole experience with anime openings is whenever you hear it play you think of the arc. These guys miss that experience by skipping high key

Arz.09

FUCK THE PAIN IS SO GOOD ITS UNBEARABLE

aidan decristofaro

At this point, with all spoilers gone, we can finally watch the opening. Each opening evokes emotions that can only be felt while the arc is ongoing!

pp

Gg you actually made me laugh I kinda wished you clipped Ron getting emotional and this statement right next to it that would be a classic meme

Patrone07

Its ok Ron that's what happens when you mix real life memories with anime, shit can catch you unguarded like a couple shots to the Gut

Patrone07

I won't say I've been through the same situation because I don't fully know yours, but I get it Ron. Proud of what you've become from it.

Carter San

No one said they have to d*e for the crew to loose a Nakama 😭 Bye bye usopp

ao kaze

Na that’s crazy

beckett9898

Ron bra, 🥺. This show pushes you and makes you feel it. So much respect for u showing that. Only brothers/fathers/sons know those fights The show writing is amazing and still is

beckett9898

Basically watching your friends/family fighting. A lot of us have been their and its super rough.

Whoopsie

I didn’t get into anime till later in life, when I first saw this, it broke me. This show really knows how to resonate with and stir up some deep seated emotions. I get it man.

Kenneth Mayer

L take. She has teared up more than Ron in other episodes. Not everyone processes every situation the same way. 🙄 Get off their back.

cincin

zoro vice captain moment 🗣️

jaycee2003 chavez

And who are you to tell me how to feel? I’m caught up in the serious but I’m existing currently I enjoy usopp a lot actually but at this point he got on my nerves I can feel how I want take a seat somewhere and leave me be

Aaron williams

have some empathy man

Brandon Otten

Sure

Aaron williams

His feeling were very much justified

Melker Linderoth

Don’t worry there is also tears of joy in One Piece

Adrien AURY

Keep your condescension to yourself thanks I can feel how I want in the moment.

Aaron williams

One piece ain’t for everyone I see

EnzoTorales

Like Luffy and Going Merry, Ron has to say goodbye to his old AC

GentleCrank

About the Zoro part happens next episode so..

Phyllis

Yeah you guys should invest in tissues for this arc 🫨

Aaron williams

So genuine, So warranted... Thank You for sharing💕 .. hope the ad gets fixed soon.. it's awful & expensive, hope the horrid ends soon!!

Tara Lamothe

YESS EVERYTHING ELSE WAS LIKE A PRELUDE. This is when one piece shows you what it’s truly made of specifically Oda showed us that this would be quite the odyssey

Aaron williams

It’s not the first time lol they all cried after leaving vivi on the island saying that they missed her and then a few minutes later Ms all Sunday walks out of the cabin luffy cries often actually but sometimes it’s more comedic

Aaron williams

Another fabulous take but of course that wisdom comes w experience so like you mentioned, them being 17 Def plays a part in it and it's written so realistically hence why so many can relate from one point or another in their lives

Tara Lamothe

That’s real because if this is how he feels here what then IWTL is gonna be moving

Aaron williams

Shes not Ivey bruh everyone processes differently. Plus Ron was clearly very moved

Aaron williams

Ron 🥲

Aaron williams

This arc is quite the roller coaster and it just started

Aaron williams

Perfect synopsis

Tara Lamothe

The ship is the only value Usopp has on the ship. If the ship is abandoned by Luffy, Usopp is afraid that one day they will also abandon Usopp.

Andy Andy

This is one of the best things about One Piece for me, the characters are realistic and it feels like you’re watching the journey of actual real people

Karaka

Honestly this was the first time the crew had real conflict within itself, and the raw emotions were realistic and how disagreements can cause real issues. The truth is Luffy is the captain, and there needs to be some sort of respect when he decides on how to lead his crew and usopp although he had a difference in opinion overstepped and disrespected Luffy. Which is why Luffy said it’s too late To talk it out. He had to show usopp who runs this shit even though it hurt him deep Down. Zoro is a real g because he stood by his captain and didn’t run to beg usopp to come back. He made sure Luffy stood on his decision. And that’s why this two episodes were some of the best written pieces of one piece ever.

Seth-San

Facts, I’d say Nami is also up there with Zoro as the most loyal to Luffy but Zoro is definitely the most realistic and level headed when it comes to emotional stuff, which is what Oda showed us in these two episodes

Karaka

Usopp may be the weakest in the crew but I have to give it to him…his Battle IQ isn’t that far from Luffy & Zoro

Karaka

Usopp got on my nerves so bad during this he was being a brat he doesn’t deserve respect because he has not been of use before this to this extent it would be one thing if he had been formidable like this before but he hasn’t now you want to go hard because you’re fighting a friend?? What about those people that tried to kill us??!? 😒

Aaron williams

Zoro is always by Luffy's side. He is such a dependable companion.

pp

This episode hits hard every time I watch it. 😭 The sadness just creeps up on you and boom! I'm glad many of us here understood Usopp's insecurities, feelings and actions, Luffy's difficult decisions as a Captain and his feelings as a friend, and everyone's feelings on the argument and fight. Been waiting for this episode so much and I didn't expect Ron would be hit this hard and speechless but I also get it since I cry every single time. It was at the moment Luffy teared when tears started to well up in Ron's eyes. Like the arc's name, you guys definitely will need those tissue boxes.

Phyllis

Ron must have had similar situation before to have such a reaction

JoanneLorac

I've never cried to a piece of art, as much as I have to this show... This is just the beginning. Brace your hearts.

Travis McKinlay

Like someone mention naruto got sad stories like the Jiraya, minato etc. But Oda is different writing like nobody else. Even side characters many of them had a well of sad backstory. Sometimes make us laugh. Sometimes make us sad and sometimes make us angry. This is One Piece and we're not even close to the real sadness.

Bruno Mendes

When I watched this episode for the first time at 14, I felt more anger towards Usopp than anything else. Now, rewatching it with you guys at 34, it hit differently. I didn’t have enough life experience back then to understand its deeper meaning, and today, my main emotion was sadness. The episode broke me, and seeing its effect on Ron doubled the impact. I’m writing this with a headache from crying and sobbing so much. One Piece really is something else...

Hector Tavares

Fr and just one more time" nothing happen"😁🫡

Bruno Mendes

Completely understand how Ron could get triggered by this. It's such a real moment and feeling that as a man if you have brothers or close friendships that have ended badly can bring back. That moment of it ending and Luffy crying realizing how hard it is but you can't change what's happened is so sad.

Lucas Crismond

perfect man. looking forward to it

gdnsx

This fight... feels so raw!

theshittycook

this always hits hard. I always end up reliving every fight that ended a brotherhood. it's hard to put into words, but there's always that moment that lives forever in your memory when the line was crossed and everything after is just less

William Glasgow

The tone of the show flips so fast and hard these episodes.

Michael H

It was hard to see Ron react like that more when I felt the same way, one piece have this impact in your life that reflects a lot of things. This show plays a big role in my life ❤️

OGNero

The emotions in these episodes are so raw. The way everyone in the crew has a unique reaction to the situation is also really well done. It makes everything feel very real. This arc is emotional 🤣😂😭🔥

SomeoneElse

CINEMA

Goon

This arc is so GOOD!

Goon

Yeah this will always hit no matter how many times I watch it and I hope you guys are alright after these eps and also your AC. It's crazy if you look back at previous eps especially the one where Aokiji was introduced. You can see Ussop really stressed and being more afraid. It could be taken as comedy but for one thing it probably showed Ussop that this is getting serious. With now Robin missing, the money being stolen because he was too weak to protect it and now Merry, which he may see himself as, being put away. I really feel bad for both Ussop and Luffy, they were the closest in having fun and also in age and seeing them fight now is always heartbreaking. Love the reactions as always

Fedei

Ohhh Man, this is a step that defines luffy as a captain. This Arc really give Strawhat Real Life Problem that requires real life solution. This is Peak! P.S. Hat's off to Zoro for being true to the Captain! A true definition of Loyalty may it be good or bad it becomes.

Emmanuel Cordial

She is truly made of ice. How does one not tear up?

Jesse Hanssen

I can’t imagine how’d he react when he finally watches that episode that specific episode y’all know which one I’m talking oh wait actually there are several ones lol one piece done gave trauma man I swear 🤣🤣

Abdullah Bakur

myb I didn’t word it right i wasn’t trying to say one piece is better even tho i like it more i was just trying to say that one piece story and emotional moments r better, but naruto has other things better than one piece so yeah that’s myf

Dashaun Nuckles

Thanks for the reaction and Ron I get how you feel hope everything is alright!

Cold_Cyber

Probably the best directed episodes just from a film standpoint. The animation was top tier. The writing was perfect for both episodes. My favorite 2 episodes in the entire series, just 40 minute s of real cinema. Like this is the reason to watch One Piece from the start all the way up to this point. Great reaction as always too, I felt the exact way Ron felt the first time watching this because I have been where Luffy and Usopp was at one point in my life and you really do question how you end up in those situations.

Mario Prime Plays

One piece has some of the most tear inducing arcs. Hope you okay Ron.

AceReaper02

so good, great reaction as always guys so glad we are finally getting to some great stuff my only complaint is this translation of a specific line. I dont know what the source of each translation is but the one here I never liked as much. Its the line right after the fight where Luffy grabsd his hat. The original way I saw it Luffy says "its...heavy" instead of "this is really tough..." to then which Zoro responds. I always found "it's....heavy" such a better line. smallnitpick to be sure haha, but a line i always really liked so wanted to point it out

Mamox

Probably cause some say Naruto has the best story or story telling, but if you have never seen one piece of course you would 😅

101mavrik

don't hold it in Ron 😭

Buffy

Think Zoros lines got to Ron. Zoro has the hardest bars when it comes to the crew where even he seems to be the most logical. For more . . . I suggest we move to triple drops 3 times a week 🙋🙋🙋🙋

101mavrik

Damn 3rd time watching It still hits the same... 😭

PumpDaddyD

Thats right Ron my brother! thats why One Piece is my #1 above all shounen Naruto, HxH etc. they all have their impactful moments but One Piece bro that shit hit home! the way Oda really tells stories that reflect real life, Especially when it reflects your own life and thats what One Piece does, its a cartoony show about a pirate but damn it when it gets real it gets real and no other shounen hits like this i promise! ENJOY THE JOURNEY THERES MORE TO COME!!!

Kokyloco7

I just realized that this is the first time we’ve seen Luffy cry in the anime. He’s always so happy. We’ve seen him get mad and serious as well. But this is the first time we’ve seen him sad and cry. Probably why this hits so deep too. Zoro cried after he lost to Mihawk. Sanji leaving Baratie. Nami at arlong park. Usopp in syrup village. But Luffys first time crying is during this scene. Can’t believe I just realized this.

Parmvir Dhugha

Most One Piece fans weren't like this pre-covid

SoySauce

everyone feels you ron <3

ALTOZE

This arc and the next one really shows Zoro stepping up as first mate

Geno Montez

I swear man. One piece is the only anime that made me SOB 3 times. And none of those moments have happened yet lol

I'm genuinely curious, why do One Piece fans strongly want people to like One Piece more than Naruto, and why do you constantly feel the need to compare the two instead of actually discussing the episode you're watching? I've seen plenty of comments like yours, where people feel the need to mention how much better One Piece is than Naruto, but my other question is why Naruto and not Bleach, which is also part of the Big 3, or any other show? To me, it feels like you guys dislike that Naruto is far more popular and loved than One Piece in Western countries, which is why you feel the need to enforce your opinions on others.

Kesendo

Such an impactful moment its crazy how everyone was emotionally thunderstruck in that moment and Zoro was their rock beautiful words from the best swordsman

MARMAR

Vivi the goat ❤️

Ron Jackson Jr

Ron Jackson Jr

There are more tears to come on this wonderful journey in the world of one piece. This is what happens when you fall in love with and ensemble cast

Dan Richa9097

SamRambo

This episode… the tears through the hat… It’s still as heavy as the first time I watched it

Kae

Aight let’s get a lil deep. This isn’t just a ship for Usopp. He thinks of Merry as a crew member. He’s got a deep connection with the Merry as it was a gift from Kaya and a piece of his home in Syrup Village. Usopp leaving the crew is deep rooted as well. Him not wanting to abandon the merry is him projecting his own insecurities. He thinks of himself as weak and especially after the recent situation with the Franky family, a burden to the crew. He doesn’t want to be abandoned again. If you look at his childhood, his father left when he was young, his mother died shortly after. He finally gets a new family but his own insecurities take over and get the best of him. So he leaves the crew before they have a chance to hurt him and leave him behind which is a real world defense mechanism. Usopps a great example of how real one piece gets. We were all crying with you Ron. I haven’t cried more for a show than One Piece and especially this saga we are watching now.

Parmvir Dhugha

Its all right Ron, that scene hits hard. Let it all out

Dandy Zoran

I got a soft spot for Ussop & he always made me laugh, these episodes hit me hard.

JT

This is one of the things that sets One piece apart from from most other anime’s for me. The way it tackles certain issues and situations feels very authentic and real, you can’t help but feel connected to them and get emotional. Although this show seems very goofy and silly on the surface, it does have its serious, dark, and emotional moments and imo it’s done really well to bring out your feelings. Just be ready y’all cuz I remember crying a lot more throughout the series so definitely don’t expect this to be the last 😭

Bunie

The episode that Usopp surprised the world. After saying he was useless and that he would be abandoned like the Merry, he just proves himself wrong. Man, I love this show.

Kee

To me this ark is where one piece starts

OneUglyGhost

By the way ppl Ron wasn't actually crying. His allergies were acting up.

Monkey D. Luffy

❤️❤️ this episode hits far too many right in the memories.

No Remorse

well for the upcoming episodes keep a box of tissue handy.

Monkey D. Luffy

Ive seen this show like 7 times already and this ep STILL made me cry lmao...Oda is different. just different

The CulturedGentleman

i feel you ron.. It made me sadder when I saw you crying

jiwon330

I knew you guys liked naruto and their story so i know for sure you will like one piece since its better and have better emotional moments

Dashaun Nuckles

zoro stayed with luffy while the others called for usopp, right hand man tingz

Kai

And we're not even close to maximum peak.

David Barron

Damn, I didn't expect that ending 💔, hope you are ok Ron. One Piece can do that to you sometimes 😅. Thanks for doing your best to keep putting out videos despite your situation, hope your AC gets fixed and you guys are back to normalcy soon!

pink turtle

Been waiting for this episode.. damn. It still feels fresh and hurts the same. So good though and a turning point in the anime.

Jay

ill def share in next OP intro

Michelle Lam

Usopp always felt useless on the ship. He is the only one that doesn't have a defined role like cook or navigator, etc. He therefore tries to pull his weight by repairing the Merry because in a sense, he sees himself in it too since its like his main contribution from Kuina. In his eyes, if they are willing to part with the Merry now that its broken and useless, then soon they would replace him too. Fucking sad all around.

The CulturedGentleman

One Piece is a roller coaster of emotions and further cements the reason why it is my favourite anime of all time

Bak choy

damnnn they never skip the discussion after any episode , one piece be hitting its alright

jeremychavez

yah. this hit me deep. wasnt able to talk for a good 5 min. will share in intro of next ep

Michelle Lam

BANGER!

Ogbhino

Damn hope y'all good

Amare D.

oh my god, that ending took me by surprise😭 really hope you're ok ron :(

beannieswife

yeah ron, i got you bro this is one piece.

Pedro Silva

PEAK HAS BEGUN <3

harinder

Fr tho

Ron Jackson Jr

I think Ron can totally relate to what happened in these two episodes. So it was very difficult for him to process these unexpected emotions. I think these episodes came out of left field for everyone. It's always been the Straw Hats vs. everyone else plus happy go lucky times. This was such a drastic foreign territory that just catches everyone off guard.

Changsta

its such a simple concept but its so deep for some who can relate to matters like this huh? at least for me that was the case

gdnsx

This. This one. He had always felt useless in the crew which is why he did odd jobs like always repairing the ship and artwork etc for them because unlike the rest who had very defined roles, he was just a friend tagging along for the ride.

The CulturedGentleman

It’s hard to rewatch these episodes, my throat hurts seeing Ron like this. I hope you guys are okay

blackdheart

Spot on brother

EnzoTorales

Ah man it hurts seeing them fight. They are legit like best friends and brothers. The peaceful flashbacks makes it even worse.

Parmvir Dhugha

Fr

EnzoTorales

Braindead take

EnzoTorales

aw man i wouldve liked to hear rons thoughts about why he found these episodes so sentimental at the end. i get it tho, sometimes you just wanna sit it out and think about it without speaking about it. for me personally, i found these 2 episodes so sentimental because of their bond of course. you usually see luffy and ussop so joyful. always playing around and making jokes while laughing. but when it comes to something serious and they come into conflict with their opinions thats when youre like dang, its serious. i dont know its just the conflict between 2 people who are usually so bonded that makes things like this so emotional. brotherly fights, in a way. i guess if you have brother(s) you could relate to it more too so maybe thats also why its so emotional. i hope i made sense.

gdnsx

"that's what being a captain is. don't lose yourself. if you waver, who can we trust?" every fking time yo 🔥

sly

i've watched so many animes, and i don't understand why i get broken by fictional characters, it hits different than real people movies, i still remember this ep💔💔

Mavoal On fleek

I strongly Urge you guys to have tissues ready for the rest of this show. If you have emotions, One Piece is gonna play on ALL of them going forward. I genuinely thought I was stoic until I watched this show and it made me sit and full on UGLY cry one night. Unreal

The CulturedGentleman

That hit something deep in Ron. This was a tough one to watch.

Sean

Damn I cried with y’all 😭

Billy

Ron Jackson Jr

First Reason why Sanji is the BEST strawhat. He has so much heart...and very socially aware. The instant he saw that Luffy was about so say something he would definitely regret he pushed rules to the side and attacked his captain. He also understood exactly how Usopp felt and therefore stopped Chopper from making a fucking sad situation way worse. The worst thing they could offer Usopp was more pity.

The CulturedGentleman

Damn Ron really broke at the end man i totally feel you bro this episode is painful as fuck and with the fact that is so relatable too

EnzoTorales

This show makes you feel like you know the characters personally like family. Then it hits you like this :(

Narwaldo

This was tough to watch man because it’s so relatable 😭

Shaide

Request to watch the fight in dub lol

TheRealN

A tragic duel with no winner. I feel bad for all the crew but especially Luffy, in this situation all his options were tough and it cost him one of his friends. As Zoro said though, it's a burden the captain must bear.

100Rainy

Usopp is reflecting, he thinks just because they decided to get rid of Merry because she’s broken, they would get rid of him too for being useless.

Joemar Villalon

i'd keep the tissues around Ron

Seb

Some say usopps right. Some say luffys right. At the end of the day they’re two 17 year olds, the youngest in the crew, dealing with the situation in a wrong way. Usopp should’ve been more understanding and Luffy shouldn’t have just abruptly mentioned getting a new ship and should’ve taken account usopps connection to it. Both of them were immature and had to face the harsh reality of the situation. It’s not always sunshine and rainbows.

Parmvir Dhugha

One piece broke my heart into Two Pieces 😭

Thunter

This is where One Piece didn't feel like a "kid's" show to me anymore... Peak still peaking!

DarkGreenPhu

We all been there Ron ……. Its okay 😢

Shadoww

Probably Usopp felt that his only impact to the crew was this ship, and now his insecurity about him being useless has reached it’s peak. And man, feelings at the end, this scene may bring back a lot of bad memories from anyone’s life

garri_d

Usopp leaving the crew is one of the saddest moments in the show

Parmvir Dhugha

These episodes were my 13th reason.

Micole

So perfectly written, so hard to watch everytime

Hamza

I wanted to hear rons takeaway at the end but I understand cause its a sad episode.

tonyylies

It’s crazy how things can escalate so fast I do think it could have been avoided if the approach was different on both sides but yea I hate these 2 episodes I usually skip it so sad 😞

Makayla Robinson

This is more painful when you think about the fact that Usopp is luffy best friend.

EnzoTorales

This one always hurts

tonyylies

The narrative storytelling this arc is Peak

ShaquanVirse

Surprise One Piece? Yesss Peak sadness

ShaquanVirse

ma man Ron felt it like we all did

Pain LaBaguette

Not ready give me tissues !

Muantawan Sopin

here we go..

jiwon330

Let the emotions out because this arc loves to mess with them, glad to see genuine reaction to it :)

vaughn

Usopp was definitely in the wrong here but luffy choose the worst approach too and that’s why everything escalated so quickly. This argument fell so real man, usopp sees himself in the merry and that’s why he just can’t let it go, I love One piece man.

EnzoTorales

nah this one gets me sobbing every time, I’m not ready

beannieswife

I’m not ready

EnzoTorales

peak part: #1 of this arc...

gdnsx

I’ve been waiting for this one 😭
