Yeah nothing at all

The Usopp/Luffy conflict is actually one of my favorite beats in One Piece. On the one hand you're angry at Usopp because he's clearly being unreasonable, but on the other hand you know that he's only flying off the handle like this because he's come to associate the Merry with his own place on the crew. His girlfriend got them the ship, he's the one who handles upkeep, and that's given him a role even as the others are rapidly surpassing his abilities. But now the ship is broken, and to make matters worse, Usopp - who's basically been a poser this whole time, trying desperately to seem stronger/more experienced than he is - has been humiliated and exposed as a liability. He was beaten and robbed by a gang that the rest of the crew crushes like an empty soda can. Usopp has no more lies to hide behind - he's failed as a warrior and apparently as a shipwright as well. He's at his lowest ebb. But the fight that follows gives the audience an intimation that there is hope for Usopp - he has possibilities. Yeah, of course Luffy holds back, and Usopp takes advantage of knowing Luffy's style, but it also shows us that when Usopp is finally backed into a corner and stripped of all his pretense, there are glimmers of more ability than we (or even he) might have expected.

Gear 2nd actually had a decent bit of setup, but it's easy to overlook: 1.

The crew getting absolutely _wrecked_ by Aokiji (and then CP9) made him realize he needed something new in his arsenal 3. The fight with Bellamy (spring guy) on Jaya gave him the inspiration for the move itself... notice how he does the exact same pose/leg-pump? It's a good example of Luffy's creativity in combat, and the fact that he's a lot more observant/intelligent than he seems on the surface (in some ways)

"Masked figure that is very clearly Usopp." Understandable mistake given you going back and forth between the manga and anime. That masked figure is actually Sogeking. He's a friend of Usopp's. On a more realistic note. Luffy's new power was something he started working on after the fight with Aokiji because he realized he needed to be much stronger to protect his crew after they all lost against the Admiral. So between Long Ring Long Land and Water 7 was when he was training. Similar things happened with the rest of the crew trying to make themselves stronger after that loss. Oda skipped over the training because it wasn't terribly important to the story and given the nature of the target audience (young boys in Japan) having big reveals of powerups during tense fights is necessary. Also, Nami's new skills are only possible with the improvements to her weapon made by Usopp and the technology they found on Sky Island. Since you're aware there is a timeskip. I will say that most fans rank this Saga as the best (or tied for best) in the stuff that happens before the timeskip, so it makes sense that you would rate this as a 10/10, and why so many people were waiting for you to reach this arc. I'm glad you're willing to look past the Usopp hate a little bit. I can understand with all the pushback from the comments saying you'll love him eventually that you would want to stick to what you already believed. The apology while making gagging noises is a funny compromise to both those ends. (I'd also like to note that the person that heard the Going Merry call out to them was Usopp. And he was the one who told the crew to jump into the sea, and they all did it without hesitating, because they trust each other.)

Oda has also admitted he just doesn't like training arcs. He thinks that they ruin the "surprise" of the technique that the characters are going to use to defeat the bad guy.

The reason Usopp was so upset by the situation with Merry was that he was afraid of the crew abandoning him. He knows that he isn't strong and hasn't done that much so when he sees how (seemingly) easily the others let go of Merry, he realises that the same thing could happen to him aswell. Also Merry was a gift from his friend Kaya so he has a stronger connection to the ship because of that too. As to his fight with Luffy, he's taking it very seriously, because his beloved ship is on the line, and he actually had prep time so I don't think it's weird that he managed to hold it against Luffy for a while.

Add onto this that Usopp knows how Luffy fights, so he knew exactly what he needed to do to counter Luffy. Usopp may not be the strongest fighter, but he’s a clever strategist, and since he has time to prepare, it actually ends up giving him an edge over Luffy, who was certainly holding back where Usopp wasn’t. Of course, Usopp’s strategy could only get him so far in the end because once Luffy stops pulling his punches, Usopp doesn’t really stand a chance anymore.

There's a lot of reasons to why ussop reacted the way he did -ussop has a special relationship with merry, it was given to them by his girl -he saw the klabbauterman and sees the merry as kind of alive -he sees himself in the merry, a guy from a tiny village that shouldn't be on the grand line and Luffy replacing the ship makes him very insecure about himself.

They have created some great content and it truly seems as if they care (even if they are faking it). Daniel’s reviews kind of come off as uninspired. It’s as if he sees his contemporaries having success and is trying to cash in, but not really putting in the same commitment. I love hearing other people’s thoughts on series I love because they give me new things to think about and look at it from new perspectives. Daniel’s video this week didn’t offer that.

Going Merry was a gift from Usopp's friend. I remember the sentiment was like "go into adventure and im with you in spirit" so its understandable why Usopp cared so much about Going Merry.

The thing about Usopp is that you also condemn him for being so determined to keep the ship, but I think it makes him a lot more real for me. He can make mistakes, he isn’t perfect, he isn’t always right, but seeing him learn from his mistakes and move on is some amazing development. Usopp doesn’t have to be strongest, but I can relate to him a lot and I find him quite funny. This is why he is one of my favourite characters, also his post time skip designs are great.

I'm surprised that no one mentioned that Usopp saw the spirit of the Going Merry in Skypiea. Like, the others all say that the ship was a part of the crew, but Usopp is the only one who saw that the ship was a real, living being with a soul and hopes and sadness, and they've been managing to keep on going because Usopp was the one keeping her together. Of course he's going to be the only one freaking out when the others can easily move on: to them it's just a ship, to him, she's a friend he's been keeping on life support for months, and he's being told that she can't get help because she's no longer useful.

So I’d recommend against the anime going forward. Not too long after Water 7, Instead of going for filler arcs, the series transitions into filler moments in canon episodes, leading to glacial pacing.

You are the only person I heard have such a wild take on Luffy vs Usopp. Basically everyone gets emotional to that scene. I bawled my eyes off. Usopp's love interest gifted our crew that ship. No one told Usopp the true shape of the ship & if you watched the anime, the way Luffy delivers the news to Usopp is very cold and nonchalant. Going Merry crying broke me. DESPITE this, I LOVED this review.

he never misses

I remember watching an interview with Eichiro Oda and he said that he had an ending planned from the very beginning, just that the story was supposed to go on for only 5 years. He said that as he wrote the story he came with new ideas and expanded his world with them. So in short he had main key points and an ending planned from the very beginning just that how he goes from point A to B is decided as he writes.

16:56 I hate this expression but it’s pretty much thanks to prep time. Usopp knew Luffy abilities, his weaknesses and how he would underestimate him.

To all those who know the truth of God Usopp: we got him!

This was the arc that made Usopp my favourite character. He's the reader perspective character, and an injection of realism and humanity into this otherwise insane otherworldly crew. Also he has long been luffy's closest friend on the crew to pal around with and be a kid with. Which makes it all the more tragic when they fall out in this arc.

Thing I appreciate about Usopp's cowardice is that most if not all thing things he freaks out about is are absolutely reasonable things to freak out about. Really got seas filled to the brim with monsters that can literally swallow a ship whole, the most insane and dangerous weather conditions imaginable, and crews of merciless super pirates to name a few. I would bet real money most of us would be screaming our heads off right along Usopp if put in this scenario. As it goes, true courage is not the absence of fear but pressing on despite it, so in that respect Usopp is the exemplar of courage.

Not sure if you noticed it, but another subtle change after this arc ended which was so nice is seeing Robin actually start saying the crew mates names instead of Swordsman, navigator etc..

I've been waiting for this review since you started reading One Piece. I'm still working through the entirety of One Piece myself (at Ch. 627 I think), but Water 7 blew me away as I read it. Just one of the best manga arcs I've read with some of my favorite character moments in anything

I clicked on the notification so fast after seeing your Instagram story yesterday really was waiting for the video.

Sad that you didn't go into Franky in this arc. He's one of my faves and I think his backstory and how it ties into the plot and it's emotions are really good.

I’m thrilled. There are so many times I’ve been tempted to leave a comment trying to correct you, but I’m glad i let the story do the work and speak for itself.

Man, even hearing you talk about the going merry’s funeral got me tearing up, and I haven’t seen that scene since like 2015. How did one piece make me care so much about a ship.

After a certain point I'd highly recommend going manga only. The anime begins to drag/stall a lot to avoid catching up to the manga and the pacing is atrocious. It's the reason a fan-edit is called "One Pace" (it attempts to fix the pacing issues).

Great review Daniel. I am stoked that you are up to this point in the story. I do have to chime in on the Usopp piece, but hopefully it is not obnoxious. I mostly just think its great narrative conversation. Others have noted the insecurity piece in relation to his feelings about the Merry so I won't beat that to death, but I think there has to be some recognition of the story beats Oda gave Usopp in this saga. First, his conversation with Robin as Sogeking and telling her to "Believe in Luffy." I find this moment to be extremely powerful as the mask allows Usopp to make this statement not only to Robin, but to himself. Additionally, the fact that is was Usopp who got Luffy to get up and finish off Lucci. His impact in that fight of being able to push Luffy beyond his boundaries really makes his strength as a member of the crew on display and I think it brought that arc to a full circle in a masterful way. Again, great review. I hope you continue to enjoy the story and I am looking forward to the rest of your videos!

I'm just so blown away this was the arc you found worthy of talking about. Glad you're into it though.

Zoro didn’t develop? He played a major role in the saga. He acted as a real first mate, telling Luffy that if he just accepts Usopp back after the way he disrespected him as a captain that he will be the one to leave.

"Usopp, I'm sorry." ~ Daniel Greene

I dropped one piece anime long ago because i felt It had a lot of reaction shots and just made things longer. I would recommend to you, One Pace. The thing i use it for: it tells you what anime episodes covers which manga chapters. They do something with the anime, cutting filler shots and non manga canon things, if you are interested. But just for the chapter - episode correlation it is a useful tool. PD: you singlehandedly made me finish my OP journey with your videos, just caught up from chapter 650 till current. Thanks for your work Daniel!

I find it kind of hilarious how Franky was almost ignored in this video

As for the reason Usopp stood any sort of chance against Luffy, Usopp has been fighting alongside Luffy for long enough to know his techniques and abilities very intimately and have at least an idea on how to counter them. It would be the equivalent of playing Civ against a close friend. Just because you rush the Great Library so that he won't get it like he always does doesn't mean he won't win, but it will put a wrinkle in his usual strategy and maybe put you ahead of them for a few turns.

Zoro didn't develop? He portrayed the fact he is the vice-captain in great ways throughout multiple moments in this saga. From the words spoken after the Usopp vs Luffy situation to the whole Usopp not being allowed back without an apology first and foremost.

Usopp put up a fight against Luffy and how it made sense is because he knows Luffy. He knows how Luffy is as a fighter. Usopp is very familiar with Luffy's moves and technique and that gave him an edge because as a crew-member, he sees that. That just proves to the audience that if Usopp is given an enemy that he can prepare for, he can do it and defeat an enemy pretty well because of how resourceful he is as a fighter.

I feel like Zoro is the steady centering point that allows the other Straw Hats to do the weird things they do and still have a place to come back to. Like when he tells Luffy that as the Captain he can't just take Usop back until he appologizes for what happened earlier. And don't worry. Nothing Happens with Zoro in the next arc.

Daniel I love your reviews! Im currently watching One Piece as well and so thats why Im a bit behind on your One Piece videos but I really do enjoy them Could you mention the music you used in the video as well? thankksss

"Water 7 10/10" *Laughs in future sadness*

The usopp vs Luffy fight is still to this day one of the best moments in one piece.

Keep the reviews coming ! This is so entertaining to watch I also suggest that you read with the manga but go back to the anime for the big scenes cause voice acting and animations

There's another reason Usopp reacted the way he did, other than the fact that it was a gift from his childhood friend, Kaya, there is reason #2: There's a parallel between Ussop and The Going Merry. He (most likely subconsciously) views The Going Merry as himself. At this point in the series, Ussop is considered probably the weakest of the crew, and he is constantly and ever-so-painfully aware of this. So to him, seeing Luffy having to replace Merry at its weakest point (even if he doesn't want to), makes Ussop think that he himself is probably expendable to the crew too. So he is reacting in such a way that he is worried, saddened but honestly knowing deep down (yet outwardly denying) that it is inevitable and knows it HAS to happen, and his reaction and what unfolded next was his way of grieving/coping. Which is what makes the part when he dives into the canal when talking with Franky and says something like "you don't think I know that??" when Franky says the ship is beyond repair, hit so much harder. He just needed time to accept it. Also regarding him being ashamed to show his face was actually a sign of how much integrity and loyalty he has: I saw a comment on another video that Usopp is incredibly cowardly but when his team needs him, he steps up, regardless of how he has to do it--even if he has to wear a mask and create a whole 'nother persona to do it :) Honestly I wasn't always a big fan of Ussop, but this arc really made me respect him so much more!! :)
