I recall looking her up at one point because I loved that voice so much, but I think this is the last role she ever did. Maybe she decided voice acting wasn't for her? Kinda sad because she killed it! There is someone else who voices a young Robin later in the series, unfortunately. Anzu Nagai's presence in this flashback is iconic and does a great job of making people forget that Nico Olivia is voiced by the same seiyu that does adult Nico Robin!
The lore in Robin's backstory is a turning point on the series, absolute gold. Also the declaration of war towards the World Government will always be top 5 moments in this series. Absolute cinema.
One thing that isnt immediately obvious but gets me every time is that Robin is a grown ass woman. Luffy and the others are just kids. Yes they can sink ships, can fight Marines, other dangerous pirates etc but they are still not even past their teenage years. Their blood is burning to follow their dreams and push back any obstacle in their way. Robin is twice as old. You dont even need her past to give up on dreams or goals. Her entire life since she was 8 she has faced the entire world just to survive another day. To her, Crocodile was her last chance as far as she was concerned. She even begged Luffy to let her die in the ruins. Joining Luffy on random adventures was, to me at least, just a whim of a woman that had already given up. She was travelling with them but was always at a distance putting up barriers between them. Seeing her finally breaking that barrier and crying, saying she wants to live from the bottom of her heart is always heartbreaking.
Yeah, I think making Robin older than the rest was really important. She was probably thinking about how young and full of dreams they were when she gave herself up. And I guess she was greateful that her death could buy the lifes of people she cared about and thus not be so utterly meaningless
18:13 His name is Kuzan, his Code/Nickname is Aokiji, which means Blue Pheasant, Certain Vice Admirals and above are given these names with a Color and a Animal, if they are not given one of these nicknames they typically have a title instead while using their real name
@@Wildcard-Jack-47 nope, lesser known Vice admirals like Gion and Tokikake have codenames, but this might be because Spoilers Below They were recommended to become admirals after Sakazuki became fleet admiral and Kuzan left, but Issho and Aramaki were picked instead, so they might have gotten the names for that reason, its not fully clear
@@Wildcard-Jack-47 if you're cool or did a major accomplishment you get a code name. it has nothing to do with rank. all the admirals are cool and have accomplishments. other people can still get code names. like in the real world. no one says you cant have a code name because you're not a manager haha
It wasn't included in the reaction, but the way the light sudden blasts away the darkness around Robin after Sogeking shoots the flag was one of the most memorable little touches in that last scene for me...
This backstory AND Robin's declaration to live are the reasons why this arc is my personal favorite. Thank your for reacting, it's really nice to see someone else resonating to the story me!
For me, those moments definitely rank high. But there is one thing (that I cannot mention because spoilers) that sell me even harder on this arc. All I can say is very vaguely that it involves both gratitude & regret. If you know, you'll know.
It's such a well executed twist, the way you anticipate that something is up with Robin when she joined, we let our guard down after a while and oda came back full throttle to that anticipation we forgot about, we just knew something was up with Robin because it felt like she didn't earn her spot, then this twist.. how we were pretty much punished for doubting her. It's so fuggin good I was in tears too for the 6th or 7th time
@@AnimeIntrospective I can't count the amount of times I've seen these scenes, and just rewatched the show in general, but I always cry in these moments xD. I vividly remember the amount of times where I'd use One Piece compilations to distract myself from anything stressful or bad xD. Naruto and One Piece are probably the most influential Anime I ever watched in my life.
The line "I Want To Live!" Hits so Hard it Always brakes me . I've never cried more in any One Piece of then these four batch of episodes. And I'm still crying here with you re-watching them
This moment with Robin is one of the crowning achievements within One Piece and one of the main reasons many fans unironically (well, slightly ironically) call Oda "Goda". He is a true master of set-up and pay-off and not just within flashbacks, either ! Robin's story wouldn't hit nearly as hard if we didn't have the build up at the end of the Alabasta arc and throughout the Water 7 arc.
Stunned by Flashback of Luffy, Zoro, and Usopp; choked up of Sanji's flashback and leaving Zeff, tears fell for Nami and Franky, Chopper and Robin's backstories BROKE me... will leave it there for now.
Kuzan/Aokiji a real one for letting Robin go, he wanted to grant Saul's wish of letting Robin live, he's one of the best Marine characters out there, he has a moral code unlike that dude that destroyed that ship with hundreds of innocent people and children
I don’t think we get “I want to live” without them burning the flag letting her know that the government is gonna have to kill them before they can turn her in. She ran from every crew and didn’t trust anyone until this crew proved their loyalty by declaring war for her…without even knowing her story btw
dunno, "that dude" that destroyed the ship was very smart, remember, if one escapes, then the whole massacre would be meaningless, and they would have to kill anyone she told the secrets to.
Each Admiral gets a nickname that is a color followed by an animal. This was before Kuzan became an Admiral, so he wasn't Aokiji (青雉, literally meaning "Blue Pheasant") yet.
Sogeking also known as usopp shooting the world gov flag is such an underrated moment n not everyone understands how deep it truly is. Water 7 arc is just insane🙏🏽
this stretch of episodes are the ones I've been waiting this whole time for. I literally just think about these episodes in regular life and start crying.
Yup, this is another big moment in the entire series. Much like Nami asking for help, Robin saying she wants to live is still one of the most iconic scenes, and one many still consider their favorite The reaction sure didn't disappoint!
This one broke me the first time I watched it, definitely get tears on rewatch. I gave no warnings (but it also would not have changed anything). Robin's backstory is up there with some of the saddest ones...but through all of that she found her friends, her nakama, and they are there to get her back and fuck shit up! Thanks for the video.
for the ice admiral and the other admirals too they all have nicknames while being admirals, so kuzan is his real name and aokiji meaning blue pheasant is his admiral nickname, this backstory takes place before he was an admiral, therefore he is reffered to by his real name
It is amazing how Oda has taken famous actors and made the admirals and then mixed in the charactertraits of the animals from the famous story Momotaro.
Man why the fuck do I put myself through this every time this episode comes up, lol. Like I hate how much of a mess it makes me but I love it so much. Robin's voice actor KILLS me whenever she says she wants to live, I've seen this a hundred times and I'm still crying.
I begun One piece in 2004 (It was skypiea at that time and I loved robin in that arc) And this backstory made me like robin more than I loved her before.
20:4420:55 Remember that Man (in the hood, he called that into order) and his name order that was technically considered a War Crime. And why I love him as a villain.
I remember watching this through tears years ago (Still tear up now) and seems I missed one interesting part during my first watch. Sakazuki. The bastard decided to shoot civilians all on his own. Truly a man of Justice.
Despite many times of watching these episodes over the years my tears still flow like a river and my heart aches everytime. Also, knowing now on the 1000+ episodes of One Piece, I'm happy for her.
These specific episodes and this specific arc is why I deem One Piece as my favorite anime of all time. I can not get over how good this is hole arc is. This and the next one. Raccoon time let’s go! 😂😊
lmfao welcome to the beginning of one piece. This arc is definitely where the show hits a stride and captivates everyone. From water7 and on, nothing but absolute fucking FIRE episodes. Some drag out, but you're struck with the straw hats from here on out.
Hugs its okay. Sheesh sheesh sheesh. Lol, yeah, one piece is definitely like this. But look how well the backgrounds are for each character. That's what makes this show amazing
alright ready to cry again to my second favorite backstory in the series.. yes i said 2nd because the 1st ISNT EVEN ANIMATED YET. LITERALLY THE MOST RECENT CHAPTERS!! THATS HOW GOOD ODA AND THIS STORY IS!!!
Robin has the saddest backstory in my opinion, that and “I want to live” get me bawling every time. These will always be some of my favourite episodes.
yeah, Robin's had it ROUGH, imagine growing up all alone and when you finally find friends that you want to protect, you have to betray them to keep them alive, it's no wonder that she wants to die. but Luffy's like "no bitch, you gonna live! if the world is your enemy, then it's our enemy too! we're in this together, come hell or high water!" Robin in DUB i feel delivers the I Want To Live scene better, you can watch that in your own time of course, wouldnt expect you to make a reaction squarely for a couple minutes. XD but yeah, now we know that the World Government is evil to the core, with the Marines varying from good (Smoker) to neutral (Aokiji) to scum (Sakazaki, whom we'll learn about later.) Luffy knows all he needs to know to decide to declare war on the World Government.
I really feel like a lot of English speaking RUclipsrs, miss out on a lot of dialogue by exclusively watching in sub. They also miss out on pronunciations of certain names too.
Thank you very much for your reaction! One Piece truly is an incredible story that has touched and inspired people all around the world. Despite the emotional moments, it's precisely this emotional depth that makes the series stand out and allows so many people to feel connected to its characters and narratives. It's amazing to see how One Piece has built such a strong community of fans and how the story continues to be so gripping and engaging even after so many years. I share your anticipation for more adventures with Luffy and his friends.
hiii, just saying that your reactions have been very enjoyable to watch, and also, sakazuki akainu is the name of the man that blew up the citizen's boat and You Better Remember It
Yo queen just letting you know the next few episodes are just recaps of everyone’s backstories but at the end of them they have some neat little shorts called the straw hat theatre that you should definitely watch
Robin's backstory is heat! I had to hold back the tears myself watching your reaction, and I've seen this arc countless times 😢 Glad you're enjoying it.
This backstory is easily in my top 3 best ones, and the same goes for the "I want to live" moment as one of the best moments in One Piece. Absolutely brilliant writing and voice acting. It always get me crying like a damn baby 😭😭
One of the most beautiful things about Luffy and the Strawhats in general is how straightforward they are in their want to help those they care about. All they need is to hear is one person say some variation of "I need your help," and that's it. Luffy cracks his knuckles and says "Let's go," and the rest of the crew follows, ready to clean house.
It never gets old watching people witness the Ohara Incident, Declaration of War, and Say You Wanna Live for the first time. This is why so many people hold Enies Lobby in such high regard and why everyone says to make it at least this far. There's a lot of amazing moments in One Piece up to this point, but this is such a huge jump to masterpiece.
Big Racoon Time!!
I've seen Robin say it 10x over, still let out a tear everytime LMAO
Same
Only 10x? amateure :P
yeah those are rookie numbers im at 12,324th time
EVERY SINGLE TIME
same lmao😂😂
Robin's child voice is so damn cute.
Agree
Reminds me of Chihiro from spirited away don’t you think?
Especially when she laughs! I hate the Government for taking her innocence away
I recall looking her up at one point because I loved that voice so much, but I think this is the last role she ever did. Maybe she decided voice acting wasn't for her? Kinda sad because she killed it!
There is someone else who voices a young Robin later in the series, unfortunately. Anzu Nagai's presence in this flashback is iconic and does a great job of making people forget that Nico Olivia is voiced by the same seiyu that does adult Nico Robin!
The lore in Robin's backstory is a turning point on the series, absolute gold.
Also the declaration of war towards the World Government will always be top 5 moments in this series. Absolute cinema.
Damn straight! 👍🏻
fun fact but robins kid voice was an actual child and she nailed every line during this backstory. 😭😭😭😭
no kidding?! that was really good for a kid
Everbody just turning into Franky crying at the end of ep 278. It's hilarious. 😂🤣
One thing that isnt immediately obvious but gets me every time is that Robin is a grown ass woman.
Luffy and the others are just kids. Yes they can sink ships, can fight Marines, other dangerous pirates etc but they are still not even past their teenage years. Their blood is burning to follow their dreams and push back any obstacle in their way.
Robin is twice as old. You dont even need her past to give up on dreams or goals. Her entire life since she was 8 she has faced the entire world just to survive another day. To her, Crocodile was her last chance as far as she was concerned. She even begged Luffy to let her die in the ruins. Joining Luffy on random adventures was, to me at least, just a whim of a woman that had already given up. She was travelling with them but was always at a distance putting up barriers between them.
Seeing her finally breaking that barrier and crying, saying she wants to live from the bottom of her heart is always heartbreaking.
Yeah, I think making Robin older than the rest was really important. She was probably thinking about how young and full of dreams they were when she gave herself up. And I guess she was greateful that her death could buy the lifes of people she cared about and thus not be so utterly meaningless

I was waiting for this one, this backstory is brutal as hell 😭😭😭
Nico Robin deserves the world ❤❤❤
she'll settle for her dream and the friends that she now has.
The reality that we going to Elbaf and there's a part 2 to this is gonna be wow. Manga is wrapping up EHI ATM as anime is starting it.
Yeah, this one broke me too. Every time. Robin's voice actress knocks it out of the park with that delivery, hits like a truck.
The line "I Want To Live!"
Hits so Hard it Always brakes me .

Nu uh, kuma is

Still brings a tear to the eye, never get tired of watching people react to these episodes which still hit so hard. We're all Franky.
Kuzan/Aokiji a real one for letting Robin go, he wanted to grant Saul's wish of letting Robin live, he's one of the best Marine characters out there, he has a moral code unlike that dude that destroyed that ship with hundreds of innocent people and children
Aokiji is more good than many marines but he is not even close to marines such as Coby, Smoker, T-bone and Fujitora
He's always been more level headed than the average marine, but he has still done some dirty work.

In my opinion Robin is the one who had it the roughest from all of the Straw Hats. That's why I love her so much, she deserves a lot of love.
This Arc truly shows the atrocities the one piece world government has committed in order to silence knowledge
the kid that threw the tomatoe, in the manga, it was a rock
Franky bawling in the end is such a mood
_This one broke me_
Ever since you started your One Piece journey, I waited for this episode reaction. I cried with you, we all did. It will always hit. Derishishishishi

Monkey D. Luffy.
He is a man who cares about human dignity.
We told you!

Luffy bout to go nuts
Robin has the saddest backstory in my opinion, that and “I want to live” get me bawling every time. These will always be some of my favourite episodes.

hehehe it was a hard reaction!! Thanks for the upload!! I really enjoyed it! ;)
i instantly wanted to tear up just seeing the thumbnail of you and robin/olvia
No matter how many times i rewatching this i cry everytime.

I just realized. I think Aokiji's (bandana ice marine) is voiced by DIO's voice actor
I love it, great reactions ❤

I was waiting so long for this
25:28, I swear Franky crying there was Oda's meta way of making fun of us for also crying at Robin.
20:19 yeah this is Spandam's father
Like father like son I guess...
Robin's child voice hits so hard damn
I was waiting for you to get here.😂 I knew the raccoon would be back. Love your reactions queen.
😊 thank you
Fun fact:Kuzan's VA is the same dude who voiced Dio
oda is the master at giving you a nice laugh after absolutely murdering your emotions.
Just started watching through your stuff, this one really got me too. You're awesome!
2:40 Nico Robin is basically living harry potters life on hard mode
