We've got a big filler arc after a couple of episodes, don't we?
Dammit. I heard the upcoming filler is awful.

We kind of got an explanation. In a brief flashback in Fishman Island, we see Whitebeard lay his claim to the island. Teach is with them and he's wielding a claw weapon. It's likely that's how Shanks got the scar.
I could have sworn this was mentioned a long time ago no?
Hawkeye was the one that wrecked the shit out of Zoro in like the second arc, right?

If anime ever taught me anything it's taht old dudes who look part skeleton can kick the ass of all the youngsters without breaking a sweat
We got a little bit of filler coming up before it goes back to canon to finish this arc. After that is a bunch of filler that I heard was pretty bad. Never watched it myself.
Yup.

SPOILERS I expected it to be answered in 5m V:
We only knew that Shanks and Buggy used to be crewmates. We didn't know what flag they worked under.
This was the first time it was mentioned to be Gol D. Roger's crew.

"Do you want to know how I got these scars?"
Yep. Also remember that he's the greatest swordsman in the world.
Nag nag fruit is legit.
IMO the next canon arc isn't even that great until near the mid point. The pacing issues really begin to rear their head. As for the filler arc? ehhh there are worse filler arcs..its not good tho.
Alright, some real ass info that some of you folks who missed the first 200 episodes will need to know for the remainder of the episode.
I'll spoiler this just in case you don't want to know it, though it's all past info:

Ace, you know, Luffy's brother? He's out hunting down a pirate named Blackbeard, a.k.a. Marshall D. Teach. He was originally Ace's subordinate in the 2nd Division of the Whitebeard Pirates before he killed a man and went rogue. Since then he went on a rampage on Drum Island (causing the king Wapol to flee the country) and eventually turned up on Jaya where he met Straw Hat Luffy and attempted to capture him for his big fat bounty. Since then we haven't really seen him. Or Ace, for that matter.
Yep, Hawkeye is the strongest swordsman in the world. He cut a goddamned galleon in two with his sword and wrecked Zorro with a tiny tiny dagger.
Yep. Makes you wonder what the hell prime Whitebeard could do if he ever got serious
lololol

Ice Hunters ain't that bad. The truly horrible filler is either long gone or years from where Toonami is now.We got a little bit of filler coming up before it goes back to canon to finish this arc. After that is a bunch of filler that I heard was pretty bad. Never watched it myself.
Yup.

The actual filler arc is fine, it's the random one off filler that's coming up which is terrible

Blackbeard was using you all along, Whitebeard.
If I remember right he was confronting Blackbeard at about the time Luffy and the Straw Hats were on Skypiea.
So......wasn't that just answered now?

It's my job, which is why I'm letting one of my subordinates handle it solo
no doubt. I am caught up with the Viz Releases in the manga and use the anime to catch the awesome moments animated (dAT Sabody Punch doe...wooooo) and things I missed.
I recommend everyone to do the same.
No he was not. Alabasta was the last time we saw ace. We last saw Blackbeard chasing after the Straw Hats in Jaya before they flew up to Skypiea.

This reminds me so much of that scene from Fate/Zero.

Respect your elders!
It might have been right after they got back then.
Goddamn, that clash rend the clouds.
