I found G-8 arc the reason why I was brought into One Piece. After watching Skypiea as my first arc, G-8 made me a fan of One Piece. It has some good character development in Jonathan as someone who's a tactical thinker. I like how each crew member handled the situation. Zoro got caught immediately.

Some people love it. I thought it was OK. Give it a shot but feel free to skip if it gets boring. It has some funny parts! It's also a nice breather between Skypiea and the next big saga. (Technically the Davy Back Arc is supposed to do that, but the anime added a lot of filler there too)

Feb 2, 2021 · 196-206: G-8. As stated it is a pretty decent arc. So many people love it though so you should watch it just to get the references people make to it. 384: This episode is right after Brook joins and it shows him trying to figure out his place amongst the crew. It is such a great episode 279-283: These are actually recap episodes during Enies Lobby.

Sep 23, 2021 · I found it pretty obvious that G-8 was a filler while Long Ring Long Land was not. G-8’s writing style is different than Oda’s plus nothing happens in it. The arc starts with them falling from the sky and ends with them falling from the sky. Plus, the plot of G-8 kind of takes away from the stakes of Water 7/Enies Lobby.

Aug 5, 2023 · The shock I had when I realized that G8 was a filler arc was nuts, because it just flowed so well and was legitimately amazing. Now, every reread of Skypiea involves switching to the anime to rewatch G8

Jun 30, 2020 · I just saw the G-8 arc and came here to say how much I liked it! IMHO: It has a reasonably focused plot for filler, and Jonathan is a good antagonist. Sanji's kitchen plot was awesome, and Chopper's infirmary plot was pretty good. There's almost no flashbacks, which is a nice change even from the main plots.

Jun 16, 2015 · G-8 is the one filler-arc you should definitely watch. It's really good and makes for a great transition out of Skypiea. Also, you'd miss Condoriano. Have you also skipped the single-episode fillers? They are usually pretty good as well, there were quite a few where I …

Aug 25, 2023 · Might be too late, but I’d seen people raving about G-8 previously so I watched it. It’s filler, sure, but it’s easily the best that the series has been up until then. Funny, well-directed. The marines are great. The antagonist is really interesting. A smart guy trying to win without outright violence.

Nov 14, 2020 · I just started watching One Piece a few days ago and im currently in episode 67. I asked a friend if it's ok to skip the fillers, and he said yes. But he also said that I need to watch the G-8 Arc since it's really good and funny. I'm just wondering on when does the arc starts so that I can't skip it based on the fillers list Thanks in advance! :D
