v2 as expected...

man Shandra is pretty huge. Is it hidden under the ground of Skypeia? I didnt really get that part.
When Shandra was pushed into the sky by the knock-up stream not all of it made it above the cloud's top, so Robin has been able to discover the center of the city beneath (inside? )the cloud. Robin pretty much figured out what the city's layout used to be by reading those ruins and then saw that she was only looking at the top pieces of the city structure.
Is it just me or does KF kinda oversell this episode a bit on their home page. I mean, sure it was a good episode, but they describe it like it's one of the defining moments of OP or something.

It's the part where Robin uncovers the past of the ruins. We all know One Piece is not your typical shonen series. This is just one of those episodes where the story of One Piece really shines and makes you realize what a genius mangaka Oda truly is.

It was a really really good episode. The Skypeia arc had been kind of boring up to now, but now there's some mystery and adventure in addition to the fighting. It might not be a defining moment of OP, but it might just be a defining moment for the arc.Originally posted by: DarthEnder

Unless the city was built in a hardcore-defined valley or something, then most of the city being below the cloud surface would imply that most of the island surface would be below the cloud surface as well, however that doesn't seem to be the case.

I assumed it was just that the island was broken when being shot up into the knock-up stream, with the piece which had Shandra on it sinking to a lower level.
It does seem inconsistent, but there could be explanations. For example, perhaps the island isn't completely level or that it was pushed up to varying elevations like anphorus speculates. Or, since the growth of Jaya after being boosted into the sky is highly unnatural - the animals and trees are huge - the surroundings could've have "grown up" beyond where the city lay. The city, which is made of nonliving material, seems to have retained its original size.Originally posted by: AssertnFailure

All in all I don't think it is important to logically place the details. The episode shows Robin digging downward into cloud so that means that the city is simply there beneath the clouds at that spot. It seems to have been done it this way to present a hidden, glorified city for Robin to discover to lend more significance to the natives' struggle.
