What Happened In One Piece Episode #1111?
Produced by Toei Animation; Directed by Toshinori Fukuzawa
One Pieceepisode #1111, “The Second Ohara! The Mastermind’s Ambition!,” continued the Straw Hats and CP0’s fight against the Seraphim, the Seraphim still having an overwhelming advantage. Luffy, Zoro, Lucci, and Kaku discovered that S-Bear and S-Hawk could maintain the defensive abilities of Lunarians to an incredibly long degree, Sanji was in a stalemate against S-Shark, and with everyone else turned to stone,S-Snake stomped Pythagoras to death. Meanwhile, the Marines continued to advance on Egghead Island in a massive fleet, and the narration revealed that everything happening on Egghead Island would go on to shake the world.
Back in Vegapunk’s old laboratory, moments after Shaka’s death, it was finally revealed thatYork was the mastermind behind everythingthat happened over the past few months. York took control of the Seraphim, and well before that, she told the Five Elders that Vegapunk was researching the Void Century and repeatedly kidnapped Cipher Pol agents to force CP0’s involvement, all for her goal of becoming a Celestial Dragon. Vegapunk called York crazy for wanting to become a Celestial Dragon, but York just laughed him off and remarked that the world only needed one Vegapunk.
One Piece’s Upcoming Shift In Focus Makes Its Latest Twist Even Better
One Pieceis going to shift focus to various events happening outside Egghead Island, and that makes episode #1111’s big twist even better. It’s likely going to be weeks before the series returns to the main story on Egghead Island, and as such,dragging out the ramifications of York being the mastermind allows it to have even more impacton the audience, as they now have to spend an increasingly long time thinking about its importance. By the time the reveal is finally resolved, its resolution will be all the better, and that will be great to watch play out.
Meanwhile,One Piecewill show readers what’s happening around the world, with some truly major developments revealed. The first will be the clash between Shanks and the Kid Pirates in Elbaf, which will show once again a glimpse of the most mysterious Yonko’s power. Fans of Shanks will agree that the wait was worth it, but fans of Kid will not be as happy.
One Piece Episode #1111 Made The Most Out Of A Slow Episode
One Pieceepisode #1111 was another slow episode for the series, but it did a good job of making the most out of its source material. While there wasn’t a lot of action in episode #1111, the few action scenes were all animated very well;Sanji’s brief fight with S-Shark, in particular, had outstanding animation for how short of a fight it was. There was a notable amount of quality animation from start to finish, and with how little ended up happening, that was great to see.
The build-up to the reveal of York being the mastermind was also great. Between Pythagoras’ death and the ominous music that accompanied the slow reveal of York’s true colors,One Pieceepisode #1111 did an incredible job of building up the tension of York’s reveal, making what was originally a quick moment in the manga something far more enjoyable to watch play out in the anime. Episode #1111 did a great job of playing into one of the biggest moments of the Egghead Island arc, and it’s another great example of the anime’s best expansions on the manga.
One Pieceepisode #1111 made the most of what little it had to work with, and it’s a good sign of what’s next for the anime. If the anime is putting this much effort into something largely bereft of content outside of the ending, thenOne Piece’s upcoming interlude from Egghead Island is sure to have a lot of love and care put into every episode.One Pieceepisode #1112 will be the first test of that idea, and with any luck, it will be a great start toOne Piece’s new direction.
Be sure to watchOne Pieceepisode #1112 when it releases on Saturday, July 13.
