What Zoro said in regards to King's statement of "being biologically incapable of beating me" makes me wonder if that's a callback to Kuina and how she was told she couldn't be the best because she's a girl.

I wasn't expecting toei to ever reference mask of zorro but when they closed the episode with the trademark Z slashes, I lost it. The whole finale part of this zoro vs king fight was sick asf, obviously emphasizing on zoro's brute force of strength as he defeated King, his practical parallel for what he can be as vice captain of the future Pirate King. Zoro's loyalty and perseverance towards his promises knows no bounds if others weren't aware already.

[@ceasj23]

Just a note, the eye tracking Zoro came up with before bird dance is first from Sasuke getting owned by Killer Bee, and Madara vs the Shinobi Alliance. This is the best I've seen since those.

[@charondesousa8868]

@@kollen5952 Luffy and Kaido fought pretty much all night with Luffy taking a long break to eat and replenish inbetween where Yamato stepped up. Also Luffy had to finish quick otherwise the entire flower capital dies so he couldn't drag it out longer even if he wanted to without sacrifing the flower Capital's entire population, whereas he had 12 hrs to burn with Katakuri, he didn't have to stay either but he chose to stay and train for 12 hours rather than just run after remembering Rayleigh's words about haki bloom. Context matters. They couldn't fight for 20hours or days.

There's no such thing as, "Added filler", Oda already confirmed multiple times that the added scenes are canon, he also gives his own input too

The filler of Luffy struggling with "Bat-Man" is also canon too lmao 🤣

[@zouwu4487]

The purple is when enmas curse is stronger than zoros will, the green is when the sword is accepting his "gusto" and is no longer forcing power out of him. I had this distinction before the anime but I'm super happy the anime took it a step further

[@hmmmmname]

That sequence with King where it shows him as a kid, then a young adult, then with his mask on, then in his Zoan form was fantastic.

[@Acheron420]

I was shell shocked when king went full power and the animation changed as he flew into the sky. The perspective and shots of Zoro looking up at this final fantasy 7 level final boss combined with the music. Literally a perfectly animated fight in my opinion. Leagues better than it was portrayed in the manga

[@ZaneBlalock]

I really need time to get back into making videos - I think this episode along with Sanji v Queen really highlights what I've been feeling since reading these moments in the manga. Zoro and Sanji are the Wings -- but in different ways. Sanji turns down power to boost the humanity and humility via the traits that Judge put him down for, but Luffy praises him for. Literally a running theme. Kid Sanji looked at Judge's painting of the royal genocide and was disgusted. Sanji never sought power. His will was first inherited by his mother Sora - to be loving and Kind - and only bolstered via Zeff. Sanji is the peak example of "support" in this way - but is also packing power to boot. Zoro leans into power even if it means death for him - and says he'll overcome even that (death) if he needs to. This leans heavily into the statements made during his recruitment: "The Pirate King needs nothing less than the World's Strongest Swordsman". As well as being emphasized with moments like "nothing happened". Zoro is the peak example of "power" in this way - but also packs support as he is literally the pillar that keeps Luffy held up: Usopp moment, Water 7 (From Nami: When those 2 figure out what it is they have to do, they always pull through), Punk Hazard ("Luffy, we're in the new world, we can't get caught slacking!"), Dressrosa (riding with him clearing the path towards Doffy), Plenty of times in Wano (most notably constantly on the roof). Equally important, but in different ways. And specifically with this episode, seeing the parallels between Zoro and King highlighted even more is beautiful. Zoro shows more trust and faith in Luffy than King does Kaido. And I think the flashback of King saying "it doesn't matter, so long as you remain strong" is the clear evidence of where a fracture appeared in King's belief of Kaido. However? The trust between Luffy and Zoro remains unbroken, and has only gotten stronger. Arber was named "King" by a King (Kaido). Zoro displayed he IS a "King" alongside another King (Luffy). And tying that into how Zoro even chastised King for burning his own subordinates ties this thought-process closer. It's really nice weaving of threads everywhere throughout - just less obvious as with Sanji (who has always been a beautifully written character with his personal moments).

[@ShadowStyle369]

the bar is so low for one piece fans. i hate to be one of those people, but remove the flashy lights and we’re left with sheer mediocrity. a fight between two people who use swords and the majority of the fight is spent with them at least 15 feet away from each other while they take turns doing attacks.

So it was initially a debate in the manga.. But the anime outright shows Zoro cutting through a flame on King and the flame went off when he lost consciousness.. I know people have said this before but I might consider scaling anime versions of one piece characters different from their manga counterparts 😂. This whole fight was a masterpiece. From the flashback to the ending attacks. Maan I did not expect Toei to wild out like this💯

[@agnihistoria7951]

It's safer to call the anime more canon than the manga (for wano) simply because Oda has had a lot of say and direction in how the anime displays things for the wano arc.

[@trehubb6144]

​@@agnihistoria7951 true in certain regards I can't still can't completely agree that it's more canon. My gripe would be how animators have been changing certain aspects especially within the endings of certain fights. Luffy vs Kaido 1 ending is a good example of it. Sanji vs queen ending also kinda made the same mistake..

It is really interesting getting both a David vs Goliath dynamic but also kind of like a King Kong vs the plane fighting dynamic of something being able to fly verse something that can’t and how zoro has to use the leverage of things around him, being at a disadvantage in air and the impacts of his own blows to manoeuvre himself is just such an interesting way to show a fight.

[@gltrjp]

Something that not many of you might be familiar with and that did not pay much attention to. In Asian culture are 3 types of dragons. Dragon with 3 claws, 4 and 5. The more claws the dragon has the more powerful he is. Nobody but the emperor is allowed to use the image of a dragon with 5 claws, or places such as temples and shrines where the emperor visits can depict dragons with 5 claws. The dragon with 4 claws is used only by the crown prince. Coming back to One Piece. Kaido's and Momonosuke's dragon form is depicted as having 4 claws. Meanwhile, in this episode, we see King before creating the dragons, he made a dragon hand with 5 claws, and then each claw transformed into a dragon. Now, knowing Oda has very extensive knowledge about mythologies, it wasn't a mistake. My theory is that Kaido's Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu was not awakened yet, but probably in an intermediate state same as Luffy's Gear 4th. Probably Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu's awakening is when they transform the dragon into a dragon with 5 claws. It will be Momonosuke who will achieve it, and we will see that in the final battle against t world government.

B.D.A Law my bro I enjoy your videos a lot...#from South Africa....sharp bro!!!

[@d-on9939]

Bro that thumbnail is too cold

[@felixowen2693]

The way I assume kings power works is that when his flame is on his back he uses it to propel himself like a rocket for that extra speed but when he retracts the flame into his body he has better defence because any blow that meets his body has that flame act against it and create a counter blow so it somewhat cancels out. Idk. It probably isn’t any “science” behind it, it’s just there because Oda wanted it like that but that’s what I like to think atleast.

There’s also a quick hint of Asura in the impact frames when Zoro prepares his final attack. Vincent Chansard is crazy good.

The love the episode. The only thing i wish they would've changed is that they have Zoro's conqueror's haki red lightning leaking/flowing from his swords constantly, instead of having it just flash around the screen

i think people are misunderstanding the use of "filler" in fight scenes, it adds more flow to the fights as it also showcases their power just a little bit more, its their true fighting style and attacks, its just adding more that we can look at compared to the manga which as a still image cant conceptualize the fight like its supposed to
