episode 197: Sanji the Cook! Proving His Merit at the Marine Dining Hall!
luffy just nonchalantly sleeping is great. 2. i really wish the episodes didn't spoil the plot sometimes. really annoying.
again, he seems like a good dude. especially since there are pirates on the loose. hope this doesn't come back and bite me when it is revealed he kicks puppies on a daily basis.
this is so fucking funny. like he is JUST WALKING AROUND. also, am i crazy or does he look a little more lanky and angular here?
at least your priorities are in order, nami.
i feel like these guys are unique enough to stand out but not unique enough to not be filler characters. does that make sense?
i will say i think zoro's ability to just walk around places like a lost fool and still not get caught is one of the funniest gags as of late. it always makes me laugh because he's just there chilling. not even worried at all.
stretch armstrong over here made me laugh as he bounces off the walls.
luffy looks absolutely insane here, i love it. and the fact that he just pulled a little cloth over his very famous and iconic straw hat and it's working so far.
oh, this should be GOOD.

ok, i am here for badass cooking queen Jessica.
this is gonna be some sorta abbot and costello bit where luffy somehow lucks into making the most delicious food imaginable and then eats it at the last second.
love how luffy brings out the worst in everybody.
the soldiers looking on in awe like enraptured schoolkids is a great joke. love their expressions.
he brings up a good point tbh. he did a lot with only a little. he's the jesus of cooking.
i don't remember this from the baratie episodes AT ALL
I CALLED IT LMAO. sanji wins through the power of love! and luffy wins through the power of stomach!
i appreciate this. not that he really would gloat, but he clearly respects her more than he simps for her, a mildly uncharacteristic moment but still cute.
it took him less than THIRTY SECONDS to prove me wrong lmao
zoro just doing this the whole damn time is hilarious. him being found out because of his swords is even funnier; it wasn't even his fault!
this is so funny. we never see zoro even slightly unfazed, and here he is running DOWNHILL after his swords like a cartoon character.
him being the first to be caught is very on brand unfortunately lol.
