| Funniest shit ever Zoro and Sanji’s reaction to those guys talking in the bar was too funny Beautiful episode with smooth animation really liked the navy brothers perspective during marineford and backstory who would’ve thought that girl saved the Straw Hats absolute cinema. |

| This is actually beautiful. Thank you for this masterpiece Ishitani <3 |

| A lot of people are not aware of the existence of Megumi Ishitani, with this special being ranked this high, I hope it gives her the exposure that she very well deserves. She's my favorite anime director and in my opinion is the best one we have in modern day. This is yet another masterpiece by Megumi Ishitani. The first third was a little slow, setting up for the remaining of the episode that is executed to perfection. I like how the main character of this special is so inspired by Nami, she has the same attire as early Nami. It's a bit unfortunate that she never got to deliver her letter to Nami, but I like even that part because what's being highlighted here isn't Nami getting her letter, but rather it is the MC's pursuit of her dream. I did cry when Luffy said to set sail and she had to watch them leave right before her eyes even though she was that close to reaching them. I cried again when the ED transitioned from Luffy saying set sail to our MC pumping her fist as if she's one of the strawhats softly shouting "Yeah!!", as she took her first step out to adventure. This makes me realize how many people are rooting for the strawhats to reach their goal, in universe and out universe (us fans). When Luffy reaches the One Piece, that moment is going to be so monumental. I love the story of the marine siblings. Ace and Luffy are 2 of my favorite characters in One Piece and is probably my favorite brothers in anime, I am glad that they managed to change the marine brothers' lives and made the older brother better understand his little brother. I get emotional every time there are brothers involved in anime. I love the micro level story telling in this special, and show us the average lives of average people in One Piece. From their POV, the One Piece world is very chaotic, just like this special demonstrated. This is something that we do not get to see or experience from the POV of the main story and the strawhats, because of how monstrously strong they are compared to the normal people. The Luffy one shot of the Pacifista is one of the moments I look forward to the most when it comes to the Fishman Island remake starting next week, I doubt it would look that much different from the original anime, but in this special, that moment look incredible good. This is my expectation for the Wit Studio remake if they ever get to this point. It gets me even more excited for The One Piece. Once again, amazingly well directed special from the one and only, Ishitani Megumi. A story like this makes me realize how much I crave a slice of life One Piece side stories. I wish that cup noodle ads of One Piece: High School gets its own full TV series one day. |

| aww (๏ฝก♥โฟ♥๏ฝก) I didn't expect it to be so good! It was equally hilarious, fascinating and touching! I'm still typing with tears in my eyes :) That was a really exciting pov, to recollect the familiar events through the eyes of ordinary civilians & low-ranked soldiers. I've never even thought how awesome all our beloved pirates must be for common ppl, about their possible fans :) They are true celebrities, lol :) That was really amazing to look at the same world but from a totally different perspective! <3 |

| kek, the dummy haters even started to downvote in the episode discussion xD |
| 22.2% 1 star on the poll. Insane levels of jobless activities |
| Damn, I didn't want to believe people who are salty about One Piece, but woah... It appears that female characters being Nami clones applies also to children. This girl looked somewhat like a Nami clone... Anyway, about the episode itself, the animation and art style felt fresh at first, but quickly became pretty underwhelming, mosly because of chaotic direction intertwining almost still frames. I didn't expect a sakugafest, but in the past I literally saw fanmade episodes of various series having better animation. Welp, One Piece is not my cup of tea. This episode was fun and wholesome at times, but it felt dull for me. I see that One Piece fans, even not devoted ones, loved it. I'm glad they did, but as for me, I was not impressed. ;p That being said, I agree that Chopper-kun is adorable. |

| Damn those mass downvotes. Haters working overtime to downvote an episose rating and anime rating both. |

If you're a One Piece fan, you already know why this is a masterpiece. However, for those who aren't fans, One Piece Fan Letter shines a light on the silent voices you would normally never hear in the show - store owners, low-ranking marines, young children and more. This special begs to ask the audience what connects these people from different walks of life together. Similarly to us the audience, it's the love and appreciation for the different members of the straw hat crew and how they have impacted these people's lives. Accompanied by arguably the cleanest animation at a movie-like quality, and the greatest director the show has ever seen, Megumi Ishitani, the special is a beautiful celebration for every fan of One Piece to enjoy front to back. 10/10
| @GotchaW12 I saw a comment on one of the videos on OPFL and it said that the perspective of the normal marines during Marineford in this special is what Koby felt when he awakened his observation haki and sensed that a lot of these marines are dying left and right even though they have won the war, they still seek senseless bloodshed. As a One Piece fan, I really appreciate details like this, and this is why Koby is one of my favorite characters. |

| It was an interesting episode mostly due to POV from civilians instead of the crew. Quite a nice change of pace. But am I the only one who thinks that it looks a little too much cartoon-ish? That it looses it's anime animation value just because it looks too cartoon-ish. |

| @Azuchi Too cartoonish? Tell me you're not a OP fan without telling me you're not a OP fan. Try watching the anime or reading the manga first! Then we can talk. |
 Bro, only weirdos choose to piss in the urinal next to you when there are plenty of open urinals along the wall. Fuck you |
| Imagine Megumi Ishitani directing the whole remake. I'll die of peakness |
