Episode #2 - The Hunter Becomes the Hunted

Summary[]

Monkey D. Luffy's gonna be King of the Pirates! The only things standing in his way are an Elvis impersonator, an angsty ginger chick (as if there weren't enough of them already) and a certain evil organisation whose name starts with "4" and rhymes with "grids"...

Cast[]

  • Uraby210 as Luffy, Coby, Alvida and Shanks
  • WispaGoldMS as Nami and Makino
  • Father Jack Hackett as Zoro

Music[]

  • (0:00 - 0:15) "Memories" - Maki Otsuki
  • (0:15 - 1:04) "We Are!" - Hiroshi Kitadani
  • Various pieces from the One Piece OST throughout

References[]

  • (2:14) - Alvida sounds like (and has a similar diet to) Elvis Presley near the end of his life.
  • (5:32) - Pandaman is the "mascot" of One Piece, and frequently appears as an inconsequential background character in both the One Piece manga and animé.
  • (8:10) - The correct romanization of Zoro's name has long been a point of contention amongst fans of One Piece. The Viz english-language manga and the 4Kids dub both chose "Zolo", whilst the FUNimation dub chose "Zoro".
  • (End Gag) - The audio is taken from "Little Britain", a UK comedy sketch show.

Trivia[]

The following running jokes premiered in this episode:

  • Characters explain impossible deus ex machina as "Sailor Logic".
  • Luffy refers to his Devil Fruit powers as "crazy-ass superpowers".
  • Characters occasionally look at the script for the next episode in order to ascertain what they're supposed to be doing.
  • Zoro only speaks in soundbites from Father Ted.
