Everyone was pretty "normal" in terms of super natural skills, except for Mihawk. People forget that Mihawk happened like... very very very early. Like i think nami wasn't even apart of the squad yet early and I think she missed it cause she wasn't there if i recall. See everyone had said "new world this new world that" prior to this moment but then the ACTUAL NEW WORLD GOD HIMSELF pulled up right in front of zoro casual asf and zoro shits himself cause he knows he wants this smoke! Zoro was gapped by a friggen butter knife. a toy sword... to a massive degree. Zoro got to taste early that absolute raw power that you are helpless against.

This is so good because back then, the fights were still mostly progressive and believable in scale to the current power level they contend with. The fights also have a feel? I would say to them that it is now lost, if not less apparent in each fight. Perhaps it's in the cinematic pacing change that caused this. Considering the medium, so much more could've been improved, but as it is now (gear 5 animated), the art is almost gone. The irony in that episode is that for something supposedly cartoony in portrayal, they completely missed the mark with trying to emulate realistic camera shaking, which only made things look like a bad camera shot rather than an anime.

I absolutely love the sounds used for Luffy's moves. One Piece's main appeal to me, over its other Big Three contemporaries, is the use of stuff like weirder, sometimes more cartoony sounds that stand out and don't feel traditionally "Cool" but they become cool through how they're used in the show. Every "PEW" of Luffy throwing a punch and that satisfying snap when his arm retracts... Dare I say, iconic.

I would say "cool" describes well. Not just the soundeffects, even some moves and stuff are named kinda cool. "Jet..." before his moves, "Red Hawk", "White Out" and "Buster Call". And a technique where quakes ripple through the air? DBZ with its colored beams and balls can't compete with this.

You have to love how Luffy kind of underestimated his own power here. He knew Gear 2 was strong, but he didn't think he'd wipe Blueno out so quickly that he didn't even get to use Gear 3

I think it's the opposite. Luffy legitimately praised Bluneo's durability here, and thought if he endured Jet Bazooka [which he almost did] he'd have to break out Gear 3rd to put him down, despite the Chibi Luffy drawback it had at the time. Luffy wouldn't go Gear 3rd at this point unless he seriously thought he had to. Remember Gear 2nd was able to put the hurt on Lucci. Bluneo's durability isn't a joke.

The animation here is so much more impactful compared to the over the top effects, clashes on the animation during the Wano arc. Adding lasers and nukes to every attack, with the opponent just brushing it off, just doesnt make it feel serious, impactful. In this video you really feel the punches.

[@Unizuka]

that is a big problem with most shonen anime, at least for me, for example, I always feel sad seeing kid Sasuke vs orochimaru, or kid Naruto vs Kid Sasuke in the valley and then seeing the later fights of shippuden, we went from cool ninja fights with hand to hand combat and strategies to who has the eye with more lines or who has the pet with more tails, same with one piece, like Dressrosa, only good fight was luffy vs doffy, and that wasn't as good as some of the fights pre timeskip.

[@kefkapalazzo1]

@@Unizuka og naruto had some greats. tbh it was a great series overall but that sasuke vs orochimaru is one of the first fights I saw from naruto, and I like it more and more as I age

Has anyone noticed the animation amd sounds are just so impactful? Feels so much better than current ones.

[@jym2r]

It’s because today’s animation style has changed dramatically, while the sound effects have not changed, with some sounds even being used 40 years ago for DBZ. This unbalance is what I feel makes modern one piece less impactful.

[@25i428]

I felt that jet bazooka in my soul, the way he just instantly went from 100 to 0 in an instant while blueno gets knocked back a few meters, *chefs kiss* Also the jet missile, that emitted the black air force energy of gear 2 the best

This is truly when Luffy’s devil fruit power got me interested. Oda took this to another level and I love it’s inspired by DBZ Goku kaioken form. This whole arc was fun!

[@kouvue9830]

I’ll be completely honest. I love OP, and not that G5 animations were bad, it was rather groundbreaking. But in terms of execution along with how broken it was and how Luffy completely dominated his enemy G2 takes the cake.

[@redkingrauri3769]

God, this fight is just a perfect example of coming back stronger. Luffy learned from past mistakes, learned from his enemy and was able to go toe-to-toe with someone he and Sanji struggled against before just on that, using the strongest of his moves to break through a defensive move he couldn't before. Then Gear Second hits. His speed increases so much he makes a sonic boom with a punch, every move crushes Bleuno so fast he can't even react to it, and luffy demolishes what he claimed was his strongest defense. Bleuno going from non-plussed and trying to hide his concern that luffy is keeping up with him to utter shock and fear that he's being beaten so effortlessly just makes it all the better.

[@kuribayashi84]

Come to think of it, Gear 2 was Luffy's first serious update. Up until this moment, he was in his Base Form, basically the same as when he fought Morgan and Buggy. Sure, he came up with new moves and evidently became more focused and more experienced over time, but I don't think he was *that* much phyiscally stronger or faster as when he started off his journey.

[@nsalieister3334]

And the crazy thing is if he just had the idea of gear 2nd and 3rd earlier on there was nothing that stopped him from using it So all of his previous early fights baring Crocodile would've been 10x easier and probably steamrolled everyone till he met Lucci
