ZORO VS. MIHAWK...

[@OtakuJuanma2]

I just love how Mihawk reacts to Luffy saying what his goal is. So far everyone either laugh at him or dismiss him. But not Mihawk, his response is just "that will be hard". He knows anyone can make their dreams come true with enough willpower.

[@pathsk8145]

i watching so many time of this episode and just realized now mihawk actually ask about it

[@nolovekev7773]

Uh maybe because Mihawk is really mature?

[@neolord1215]

Ngl I don't think absolutely anyone can do it with enough effort, I think it's more that he respects Zoro and has seen Luffys will so regardless of what limits they hit he wants them to reach the peak of their potential. Also he's lived long enough to know that for Luffy to gain the respect of Zoro then he knows he has hella potential.

RIP Mihawk’s old VA. Everytime he talked it brought a certain chill feeling. As to the very classy voice he has now. Both are great. However, for me nothing beats the original.

[@forastero54321]

I love zorro’s character development here. He told luffy that if luffy’s ambitions got in the way of his own he’d have luffy pay with his life. But in this fight, in the flashback, and with his final speech we become aware that zorro is no longer just fighting for himself because his dream aligns with luffy’s dream now. If luffy is to become king of the pirates then luffy will need the world strongest swordsman in his crew-which is why he promised he’d never lose to another swordsman again.

[@rahl163]

Also the line where Sanji says iy should be easy to throw away your ambition, he refers to how he is throwing away his ambition to find the All Blue, to stay with Zeff and the restaurant.

Mihawks introduction here is insane important for 3. reasons...1.

It's shows what Zoro must conquer to achieve his goal ! 3. First Warlord of the sea and he his alone too !!

[@coranonthecob1613]

Idk if Jack knows about the warlords yet. But I love how in one piece, we get that fight or character that shows the crew that they are out of their league before they get to the next level.

[@YoutubeUser1091]

this fight was shown this early to show us, the viewers, the gap between current straw hats and one of the top strongest. up to this point every fight they've been in was fairly easy and this gave us a taste of how far they still needed to go. this was also the start of zoro's ambitions growing from more than being the greatest swordsman to helping luffy become pirate king.

[@singgtogether]

At first Mihawk looked annoyed and pissed, called him weak one. After seeing his passion he looked with great passion, as if he saw his future rival after all these years and called him strong one

[@drizma]

Zoro vs Mihawk is such an amazing moment in the series, and the frog line might be one of my favorites. The show didn't translate it very well though, it goes more like this: As Mihawk prepares to fight the strongest swordsman in east blue with a cheese knife, he says "Little frog sitting in your well, it's time you learn the world is far bigger than what you can see from your well." It's just such an incredible line. The next time it's mentioned is when Zoro uses it himself. Shockingly, nobody seems to recognize the reference though...

I wonder how frequently he was watching these episodes as we've seen Luffy being cut and bleeding multiple times by now, and even have it stated that cutting is a weakness to him. Yet Jack is still confused so I must assume he was watching infrequently so that information didn't stick

[@syystomu]

Yeah, Zorro is a famous fictional swordsman, a vigilante character and kind of a proto-superhero who also inspired Batman, and yes Mihawk seems like he might be based on Zorro. And I'm not sure if it's true but I've definitely heard people speculate that Zoro is named after Zorro I remember there was a Zorro TV show in the early 90s that I think was pretty popular, or at least I always had the impression that it was, admittedly I was just a little kid back then (I found it really cool lol). But that was around the time Oda was planning One Piece so it wouldn't be a surprise if that show inspired him (assuming it was also shown in Japan) ETA: apparently there was a Zorro anime that ran from 1996 to 1997 which is literally just before One Piece started, and they spelled "Zorro" as "Zoro" (ゾロ) so yeah....
