I had no idea so much of the arc had changed in the anime. Best joke in the original version is most of the straw hats being down with stealing Captain Foxy so they win the last round by default, until Robin says, "I don't want that weirdo on my ship," and the rest of the straw hats are all, bullet dodged, thank god we didn't take Foxy to be one of us. And the manga cuts to Foxy crying miserably.
Yeah, the reason most people think it's filler is not because it's full of random games; it's because half of it is actually filler. They changed one davy back fight into two.
He still is sort of introduced tangentially to the Foxy Pirates in the anime, just right after a filler Foxy Pirates return arc. It really is amazing how much Toei managed to stretch out this one section of the story before finally getting to Water 7.
ever since we learned about the Rocks pirates I have had a theory. How Rocks got that monster crew together was through a Davey back fight. Which is why it was introduced earlier in the series so Oda would not have to explain this ridiculousness during a climactic part of the story.
@@beywheelzhater8930 Can confirm. I read the manga first so when I watched the anime version of the Davy Back Fight and the roller derby happened I said "What the hell is this?!"
Foxy genuinely punched out with Luffy far better than I think most antagonists would have. There's a solid argument to be made that despite his looney-tunes antics, Foxy is kind of a boss - as evidenced by the fact that he'd never lost a Davy Back Fight until running into our titular crackhead and his band of lunatics. Like seriously - the dude has a crew of like 500 people, has a physique that allows him to fistfight Luffy (not well but he did it), a *massive* ship and variety of gadgets scattered throughout it, *and* his Devil Fruit. If Foxy had actually come at them head on in a *fight* instead of playing games, they might have actually won just due to the massive numbers difference and the Slow Slow fruit. It's honestly a *really* good thing Foxy likes to play Davy Back Fights instead of just attacking people.
Long Ring Long Land arc is not only not filler, but it is also critical to Zoro and Sanjis relationship, as it is the first time the two agnowlage each other as equal and set aside their differences to accomplish their shared goal. This is when Zoro and Sanji finally becomes a part of the same crew.
It also does establish pretty firmly that Luffy will not give up a single member of his crew, which is important for Water 7/Ennies Lobby and Whole Cake Island later on. You could argue that Arlong Park already made this point, but for me, LRLL solidifies how important this specific crew actually is for Luffy. No one is dispensible, NO ONE.
@@DaxSchaffer It goes a long way, but I don't think it's quite solidified by the end. Usopp still doubts his position on the crew in Enies Lobby. They fought to get Chopper back, but he's a doctor. He's useful, necessary even. Would Luffy have fought as hard if Usopp had been taken? Of course, but Usopp still needed to be convinced. Long Ring Long Land contributes exactly as many pieces to the puzzle as it needed to (and maybe too many pieces in the anime that are actually from a different puzzle).
This is also the only arc in which Nico Robin has to collaborate and work with the rest of the crew, instead of going off on her own to do her thing, without this arc there's a lot less emotional attachment to her
@@BleydXVI I guess it would be more accurate to say that LRLL does well to establish Luffy's IDEAL of not wanting to abandon any of his crew, which gives room for this ideal to be properly challenged in following arcs. Usopp is a good test of this because he, more than anyone else, does come the closest to being left behind (until he finally apologizes). Luffy didn't WANT to leave Usopp behind, but he heeded Zoro's perspective that Usopp's respect for their captain needed to precede any potential forgiveness on their part. Luffy's resolve to not lose any of his crew is made most firm by the time we watch him and Sanji go at it in WCI. We do have to wonder a little if even they can resolve that conflict and facilitate Sanji's return from such an abusive situation. As you said, LRLL provides the right puzzle pieces for letting this theme organically fall into place across the series. So I think we can all agree at least somewhat that it does serve some long term (long land) narrative purposes.
The funniest part about how this arc feels like filler is the Davy Back fight in the anime was literally given filler events with the whole “second fight” thing.
Yeah, the rules should state that everyone can only participate in 1 match and then the three matches are the boat race with Usopp, Nami and Robin, followed by the ball game thing with Zoro, Sanji and Chopper (who can’t participate because he’s on Foxys crew now), and then the boxing match with Luffy. So cut out the other events and I think you actually get a nice little breather in between Skypia and Water 7.
Main reason it feels like filler to me is that it's a setup where things get traded but nothing really changed at the end of the arc. Sure there was the moment with Aokigi but that's disconnected from the rest of the arc, again making it feel like filler. Only real thing that mattered was remembering the slow beam when Luffy was attacked by the love beam
@@bigkirbyhj666 p much, they also changed some character interactions up which is p bad for an arc whose greatest value is the character work done in it. Like was said here, the notoriety of this arc definitely falls on how it was adapted.
I wish you had mentioned the explanation as to why everything was long in the island. That being: everything was so ordinary that it grew long to be more exiting.
That's wild. I knew the anime added extra events but I didn't realize that the anime ALSO added more inside the existing events. The race didnt involve all the crew in the manga, it was just Nami, Usopp, and Robin.
I only watched the anime and I kind of hated the Foxy stuff for dragging too long. I legit thought: this would've been just fine if it was half as long. I wouldn't mind. Come to find out from the community that in the manga it was indeed half as long lol. Ironically I enjoyed all of G8 and I didn't even know it was filler until later.
@@Joseph_Drew_III yes, but there are 3 foxy "arcs" in the anime, the original from the manga streched out beyond breaking point because of the added filler, foxy return arc before water 7 and the spa island arc after triller bark.
The funny thing is that this was unironically one of Usopp’s most powerful moment, dude just absolutely manipulated Luffy into believing that the Afro made him nearly invincible. Hell, he even got to wear the straw hat
Long Ring Long Land confirms that Luffy becomes more powerful the goofier Luffy gets, for we have confirmation that Afro Luffy is the most powerful version of Luffy in the One Piece universe, probably only thing above it is Afro Gear Five Luffy. 🗿
Just a reminder that he went on those stilts around the same time the Post Marineford Flashback occurred. Like Ace was releasing conquerors on fodder pirates while that man got on those stilts
@@Mugiwaranogoofy Calling him Prussian Waluigi has been an inside joke between me and my best friend, because he looks like Waluigi and has the same dub voice actor as Prussia from Hetalia, a show my best friend is a huge fan of.
This is the MOST HILARIOUS explanation of any arc that I've ever heard from anyone bruh. I'm struggling to not LoL at work right now because we aren't allowed to have earbuds in on the floor and I'm clearly not talking to anyone 😂😂😂
Just you wait, Luffy gonna finesse Buggy out of being king of pirates with a Davy Back fight, then MFers will be on the "oh I love Long Ring Long Land" lies
Filler context: in manga, there is only 1 DBF - the barrel-boat race is lost and Foxy gets Chopper, Zoro and Sanji win him back, Luffy fucks Foxy up (cause he can't just drop the game, he gave his Word TM on his Pirates Honour TM to play).
@@Joseph_Drew_III Luffy uses Foxy's flag as a bandage for Shelley. That was the motivation for him accepting the Davy Back Fight. Why he didn't just use some random rag or something instead I don't know.
Also Mugiawara, you're really helping me go through a hard time! You and my best friend look like brothers and it feels like he's right here carrying me through this hard time. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for being here man! I wish you all the best for your channel
Long Ring Long Land is genuinely one of my favorite arcs. It's a great little palet cleanser after finishing Skypia, getting us ready for a new adventure by easing us into it with a pretty light and silly contest. The foreshadowing in it is great too, hinting at the devastation that would result from a Straw Hat leaving the crew before we get to Water 7. Plus, it gives our first taste of just how dangerous the World Government can be when an admiral just suddenly appears and no difs Luffy and Robin almost instantly. The comedy is fantastic in its own right, too.
I never realized how much they added to the anime version of this arc. I watched everything like 15 years ago or more so i cant remember the anime arc, but im rereading now and wow this arc is so much less in the manga. Only 1 davy back fight, 3 rounds. They lose chopper, take him back, take foxys flag.
I know right? Like i JUST reread it last week and i was blown away by how short it is its insane. But in fairness its missing a good amount of the anime comedy too
Not only does it add a lot, it changes the context of several cannon scenes. For example, Nami suggesting that they choose Foxy and win the next round by default made no sense, since the next game in the anime had a different team event that Foxy didn't even participate in.
Monkey D. Dynamite 🤣. I absolutely LOVED Luffy in an Afro and it needs to make a reappearance in the arc when they find the one piece. 🤣❤️ Great video!
When talking about this being a filler or not, it’s often mentioned that the anime made it longer. What no one brings up is that it also makes it more stupid (not the good kind). In the manga: Foxy SHOOTS the horse (like, with a real gun) for no good reason, Luffy understandably gets angry and accepts the game to teach them a lesson. Game 1: Straw hats loses Chopper Game 2: Straw hats wins Chopper back Game 3: Straw hats take Foxy’s flag. Short and sweet, just a few chapters, enter Ao Kiji. In the anime: Foxy shoots the horse with a net, that somehow makes him own it(?). Luffy gets angry (it’s just a net dude, just cut it off), accepts the duel. Game 1: lose Chopper Game 2: Luffy takes the horse back??? You’re risking your crew mate for a horse with a net around its legs? Game 3: win Chopper back Then 3 more games! It’s just way too much. So yeah, the pacing of the manga is soooo much tighter and better than the anime, even for OP standards.
i didnt like it on my first walkthrough but now i think Long ring might have my fav intro to an arc tied with thriller bark. seeing that ship with barely any crew members sailing around was a great way to make the audience ask questions
Wow, the Anime really did this arc dirty. It all makes so much more sense in the manga. It's no masterpiece but the filler they added to it in the anime really drags it down like a devil fruit user in the ocean.
The part where Luffy is chasing Foxy around the ship was already the funniest part of the whole arc and your roast commentary on top of it elevated it from a 10/10 to an 11/10.
The difference between manga and anime on this arc is night and day. People that hate this arc clearly have only watched the anime and not read it. Short 3 games, aokiji encounter, then on to one of the best arcs in one piece.
Foxy quickly became my favorite One Piece antagonist. Every time he appears after this, it feels like finding Patches in a Soulsborne game. You know he's going to betray you at the end, but you'll let him b/c it doesn't really negatively impact you that much, and it's funny, so it's worth it. Also, coincidentally, I just watched the Nebulandia movie for the first time last night (binging One Piece movies after finally becoming current w/ the anime), and immediately the next day, this vid drops, lol.
It's honestly glorious how later filler arcs make Foxy even more of a Team Rocket style jobber than BUGGY (like Buggy somehow at least got shit done whether it was his intention or not)
Just before I got to this arc for the first time I found out that genuinely in the anime like half of the episodes arent even canon and they're skippable, so I feel so bad for anybody that did watch those filler episodes thinking they were canon
This made my day and I'm glad you brought up the best movie of all time Black Dynamite. Thank you for making these and I'm excited for the next one! Crossing my fingers for a Big News Morgans and Jimmy Scoops update.
I can honestly say that this is the first time I have ever enjoyed this ark. I will never watch the original again cause I wanted to pull my hair out, but I'll watch Mugiwara recap it any day of the week.
While LRLL isn't the greatest it serves its purpose. It gives us a break between two huge arcs with high stakes. It also introduced Wings of Pirate King with Zoro and Sanji fighting together for the first time (and from the moment they agreed to work together they didn't say a word showing that they have a great teamwork if they want to) It was also an opportunity for Oda to show some wacky parts of OP world building like Davy Black Fights. I feel that Oda had it in mind but couldn't put it in any other arc So yeah, not peak but it gave us Afro Luffy so I'm not complaining
Are we ever gonna get an Impel down is hilarious? Cause a crack head breaking into a prison only to be rescued by Tim curry from rocky picture horror show is hilarious
I'm mostly excited for Enies Lobby is hilarious because I'm curious on how he'd spin the narrative that CP0 Agents are completely justified in their World Government quests.
You can dislike something all you want but fact remains that it would make sense unless you want Luffy and shanks to try to kill each other??? I'd rather see a Davey back fight. With shanks crew it would be wayyyy more intense
@@benasay8279 No no, it's not that I don't like it, I just find it funny that this arc is so random and adds so little to the story that so many hope it becomes relevant in retrospect. However, it's still fun as a side quest that the Straw Hats fell into right before one of the biggest arcs in the series.
You do not know how much I have been waiting for the next episode of this series, on a day I really needed this. Thank you brother and may God bless you and your family 🙌🏼✝️
Came back to this after yesterdays chapter. I needed to remember the greatness of Foxy ant his split head. The new sharpie moustache is kinda criminal, but I still love him 🤣🤣
24:35 wait, did you forget about the weird, massive pervert that bikes to them in the middle of the ocean at the end of the long ring long arc, flirts with Nami, then freezes Robin?
Please don't stop these bruh! It's top content! Especially with the remake of one piece and the popularity rising this will age like fine wine. Hit every arch!
I for one can't wait for the awakened devil fruit Foxy to show up at the last minute as the first member of the Straw-Hat grand fleet to 1v1 Kizaru, reflecting his power and speeding himself up while also slowing down Kizaru. That shit is gonna be like Goku vs Jiren.
Zoro must be an insanely good teacher to teach Luffy how to skate in 3 minutes, like he could probably teach someone swordplay in a day and full Santoryu in a week.
I dropped one piece as a teenager but these videos made me pick it back up and I love it
Glad we could bring you back 🫡

The difference between manga and anime on this arc is night and day. People that hate this arc clearly have only watched the anime and not read it. Short 3 games, aokiji encounter, then on to one of the best arcs in one piece.
Yeah, I don't mind the arc in the anime but it's not even bad by any measure in the manga!
this is the best arc
I’ve been waiting for Mugi to cover this arc for a long time.
Foxy quickly became my favorite One Piece antagonist. Every time he appears after this, it feels like finding Patches in a Soulsborne game. You know he's going to betray you at the end, but you'll let him b/c it doesn't really negatively impact you that much, and it's funny, so it's worth it.
Also, coincidentally, I just watched the Nebulandia movie for the first time last night (binging One Piece movies after finally becoming current w/ the anime), and immediately the next day, this vid drops, lol.
It's honestly glorious how later filler arcs make Foxy even more of a Team Rocket style jobber than BUGGY (like Buggy somehow at least got shit done whether it was his intention or not)
Just before I got to this arc for the first time I found out that genuinely in the anime like half of the episodes arent even canon and they're skippable, so I feel so bad for anybody that did watch those filler episodes thinking they were canon
Dude I JUST found that out today!!! That’s crazy!!
When you started singing "you're yhe best, around..." I totally lost it. You had me rolling 😂
Foxy is probably going to link up with Crossguild and join the Mr 3 faction.
This made my day and I'm glad you brought up the best movie of all time Black Dynamite. Thank you for making these and I'm excited for the next one! Crossing my fingers for a Big News Morgans and Jimmy Scoops update.
Sanji:Why do i have to be the ball?
Hey nami says you look cute with the ball hat
Sanji: I was born to be the ball 😂😂😂
I can honestly say that this is the first time I have ever enjoyed this ark. I will never watch the original again cause I wanted to pull my hair out, but I'll watch Mugiwara recap it any day of the week.
In Long Ring Long Land's defense for being worse than a filler, G8 is quite exceptional and is canon to me.
Facts G-8 was a way better time to me honestly
In manga it's short
Anime just overstretched it
In canon there 3 games
And fun
Especially 2nd and 3rd game
While LRLL isn't the greatest it serves its purpose. It gives us a break between two huge arcs with high stakes.
It also introduced Wings of Pirate King with Zoro and Sanji fighting together for the first time (and from the moment they agreed to work together they didn't say a word showing that they have a great teamwork if they want to)
It was also an opportunity for Oda to show some wacky parts of OP world building like Davy Black Fights. I feel that Oda had it in mind but couldn't put it in any other arc
So yeah, not peak but it gave us Afro Luffy so I'm not complaining
LRLL is the most filler canon arc, G-8 is the most canon filler arc
😂 I have G 8 on my phone. I really love it
Are we ever gonna get an Impel down is hilarious? Cause a crack head breaking into a prison only to be rescued by Tim curry from rocky picture horror show is hilarious
We kinda got one in the Marineford is Hilarious video but I'd like to see a full one
"Is Foxy in Elbaf?"
That is a theory since Shanks grand fleet Is a bunch of failed pirates and one of them looked a bit like foxy
Finally this is the content I’ve been waiting for . The most funny arc
As Oda returns from break OUR ONE PIECE SAVIOR MUGGY GOOF HAS RETURNED!!! HALLELUJAH 🙌🏾
cannot wait for the Wano is hilarious video to be made, these videos are peak 😂
I'm mostly excited for Enies Lobby is hilarious because I'm curious on how he'd spin the narrative that CP0 Agents are completely justified in their World Government quests.
Long, LOOOOOOONG, LAAAAAAAND.
My favorite arcs
1.Thriller Bark
2.Long ring long land
I find it hilarious how so many theorists keep saying that Luffy and Shanks will have a Davy Back Fight just to justify the existence of this arc
The justification for the arc is that it's fucking hilarious.
No this is the most insanely foreshadowing we’re getting holy knight foxy
@@jjging4308 I'm sure you're wrong, but I'll pray every day that you're not.
You can dislike something all you want but fact remains that it would make sense unless you want Luffy and shanks to try to kill each other??? I'd rather see a Davey back fight. With shanks crew it would be wayyyy more intense
@@benasay8279 No no, it's not that I don't like it, I just find it funny that this arc is so random and adds so little to the story that so many hope it becomes relevant in retrospect.
However, it's still fun as a side quest that the Straw Hats fell into right before one of the biggest arcs in the series.
Loved you in the reverie. Can’t believe you sold so hard on the admiral debate though 😂
BRO I TRIED GREENBULL IS JUST SO SORRY
@@Mugiwaranogoofy it’s completely understandable honestly. It’s like making foxy a yonko. It just isn’t fair 🤣
I just realized that anime version is so much longer than manga version
Remember, they had Chopper as the emergency food supply. So they did not need to eat the octopus.
watching again to put into my discord the "this is as good time to crash out as any" :D its golden
22:37 man’s got pipes 😂
FINALLY, ONE OF THE LONGEST MOST BORING MOST FUNNIEST ARCS
You do not know how much I have been waiting for the next episode of this series, on a day I really needed this. Thank you brother and may God bless you and your family 🙌🏼✝️
"he's the best...A-ROU-ND!!!!" sent me 😭😂 🤣😂
Every time I see a new post a day has been saved
Binged a ton of your videos in the past few weeks and glad the next one is here!
davy back will return in the end in straw hats vs. red hairs
Ussop outsnipes Yassop
Zoro beats Beckman in a sword duel
Luffy beats Shanks in a contest to hunt the most Sea Kings armed with nothing but haki
My head cannon is that when Luffy finally sees Shanks, they will have a Davy Back fight and thats how he'll "take down" his friend
This is a pretty dumb headcanon (in the best way possible), I love it!
With the gear 5 afro😂😂😂😂
Here shines some good news in an other wise weary world.
Where my boy jimmy scoops at. Wish he could have seen this
The moment when Luffy accepted the Davy back fight and the Dialouge between Usopp, Luffy and the Grandpa got me so hard
MnG: skips past sea-monkey opening to the arc
the remainder of the fanged frog pirates: are we a joke to you?
Came back to this after yesterdays chapter.
I needed to remember the greatness of Foxy ant his split head.
The new sharpie moustache is kinda criminal, but I still love him 🤣🤣
MUGI I AM AS HYPED FOR THIS AS I AM FOR 1112
Oooooo boy thanks for reminding me we finally back 😤😤
@@Mugiwaranogoofy bro im so desperate i looked at the raws in japanese and just invented my own headcannon for the chapter xD
09:23 dear god you weren’t kidding, he is LITERALLY Dick Dastardly from Wacky Races
thinking about long ring long land as elementary school field day makes this LSD trip of an arc way more palatable
😂😂 I know right it reminds me of better times
24:35 wait, did you forget about the weird, massive pervert that bikes to them in the middle of the ocean at the end of the long ring long arc, flirts with Nami, then freezes Robin?
Akoiji is being saved for either Wano is hilarious or Enies Lobby is hilarious.
It's a fun Arc, admittedly, it's goofy silly fun...considering what happens next....silly fun isn't bad
Please don't stop these bruh! It's top content! Especially with the remake of one piece and the popularity rising this will age like fine wine. Hit every arch!
0:19 I noticed that your shirt changed, someone else probably pointed this out already, but i just wanted to say that i noticed this time
I for one can't wait for the awakened devil fruit Foxy to show up at the last minute as the first member of the Straw-Hat grand fleet to 1v1 Kizaru, reflecting his power and speeding himself up while also slowing down Kizaru. That shit is gonna be like Goku vs Jiren.
finally, the episode I've been waiting for all along-land.
Best youtube arc is back baby
I don’t know how I’m not subscribed to you but you yet but you better believe I am now you hilarious video making man with a gold mine of a channel
Zoro must be an insanely good teacher to teach Luffy how to skate in 3 minutes, like he could probably teach someone swordplay in a day and full Santoryu in a week.
Sanji and Zoro are such a good duo they never fail to put a smile on my face
I am so grateful for this episode, you killed it. Absolute Dol D. Roger Like. 😮
Yessiirrrrr we back baby!!!
@@Mugiwaranogoofy “The Boys are back in town” what don you think of the song? What do you imagine?
LRLL is one of the goated arc! Give me Afro Luffy and Foxy vs Buggy.
Ngl I had no idea of the hate when I watched this arc and I cried laughing the entire time. Its so funny
My favorite arc in the whole show- finally
FEEEEFEFEFEFEFE
I'm grateful you posted this because I never watched Long Ring Long Land and I never planned to. This is a good enough summary of what happened.
Reading th e manga long ring long land was one of my favorite arcs. you've encouraged me to reread it thanks for the video.
This mini arc had to be the best of all mini arcs due to the boxing match. :D Thank you for making it more hilarious than before.
I can’t wait until you do water 7 is hilarious or enies lobby is hilarious because those are my two favorite arcs.
long ring long land is the best arc you cannot tell me otherwise
Yay, more hilarious series!
Feed me more goof daddy
having watched the anime before reading the manga, I was pleasantly surprised to see how much better the manga version of this arc was paced
