Episode 753: A Deadly Elephant Climb! A Great Adventure on the Back of the Giant Elephant!

One piece episode 753 Discussion - Episode Discussions\Reactions - Anime.lk  Sri Lanka

Beasts on Beasts on Beasts

 

The climb up the side of the giant elephant begins in earnest as the Straw hat Alliance members make their way to Zou. But the mysterious country's inhabitants might have something to say about that...and what STRANGE inhabitants they are!

 

 

ONLY TOONAMI

 

 

All pirates searching for the treasure One Piece must brave the second half of the Grand Line.

These wild and dangerous seas are known as The New World.

Gold Roger and his crew were the only men to ever chart these waters and learn all the secrets they held.

For the rest of the pirates in the world, this has proven to be the end of the road -

A Graveyard of Dreams.

Wow all their progress was undone.  I hope this whole episode won't be climbing up the elephant.

You should have drawn a better dragon than that.

A real ninja LOL.

A monkey, really?  We don't need a new annoying sidekick.

Another splitting up lmao.

I think it only listens to the guy who draws him?

Luffy you DUMBASS.

Don't pull the dragon back!

Honestly Luffy and Robin should've been able to get to the top by themselves with their abilities.  Or at least help the dragon.

They finally got to the top.  I swear if they had fallen back down again...

The dragon turned back to a drawing?  The bird lasted a lot longer.

LOL that dramatic "death"

"This is dumb."

"Just a crappy drawing."

LOL Zoro and Law.

A whale shaped tree?  The city looks truly ancient.

Don't just rush in, Luffy!

Someone busted in recently?  A giant creature?

How are trees and flowers growing on an elephant?!

Right? Suddenly it's more like the movie's color palettes

Must be a blast creating a new arc and setting for a show like OP.

Knowing the skies the limit and you're imagination can just run wild.

Gunpowder and gas, Caesar might have been involved. 

Someone is watching them.  

Attacking rabbit girl?!

That deer lady or whatever she is wearing Nami's clothes can't be a good sign.

 But seems someone else has invaded. 

Aaaand it's over haha.

Groups in trouble already, and of course Luffy's off on his own having a ball meanwhile.

I was gonna say, dude is just oblivious.

The elephant looks so freaky in that shot. Seems like it's barely even alive. What is it, a zombie elephant or something?

I had a crazy thought that the elephant is nearing the end of its life and Zo will be destroyed at the end of this arc.  What a shit show that would be. 😄 It's freaky how its eyes look empty though!

A new intro? Laugh Tale is the name of the Final Island where the One Piece is supposed to be? Have we ever heard that before now? First time I ever recall them saying the name of the island.

I think it's called Raftel and I'm pretty sure it was mentioned a long time ago.  Huh, I am seeing it is also referred to as Laugh Tale.  Not sure what's up with that.

This is kind of an interesting story. From what I can gather, the name of the island was always written the same in Japanese, using...I think katakana (I don't know enough about moonrunes to know how these things work exactly). The literal transliteration of the characters is something like "ra-fu-te-ru." So when everyone official or otherwise was first translating that word some 25 years ago, they came up with the reasonable assumption of "Raftel" based on how these things usually work. The English phrase "Laugh Tale" apparently first appeared on-screen in the movie Stampede of all places, and then Oda confirmed in a chapter note somewhere in the 900s that "Laugh Tale" was the intended translation. I don't know whether it was intentional vagueness on Oda's part, or whether he realized at some point, "oh hey I should clarify this." If it was intentional then it's not all that dissimilar to the pirate Gold Roger's actual name being Gol D. Roger. Long story short, it was always "supposed" to be Laugh Tale, but no one has any way of knowing that before it was explicitly stated. Funi switched over to that translation after it was confirmed. 

As to whatever significance that name may or may not have...you're gonna be here a while.
