Still a good episode compare to KKG on Kaido though. 
However Toei is being Toei nothing surprise me anymore.. lmaooo
Wonder how WB vs Roger fight will be...knowing Toei, it probably required 2 episodes.

I HATED IT IN MANGA
Cause Oda as usual... he's only showing the initial clash that splits the sky... and then offscreen the rest
He did that with Shanks/WB
He did that with BM/Kaido
He did that with Roger/WB
He in fact didn't show a single thing of BB/Marco or Aokiji/Akainu
At least Anime and Toei do care about their own fans and their expectations (notice I'm talking about ANIME FANS/ Not Manga fans who will complain regardless)
Manga fans to anime... if they stick to manga panel to panel.. they will complain that they should extend the fight a bit and make it interesting. And if they extend the fight... they will complain that it was filler and they shouldn't add those scenes... so the complaints from manga fans are incoming regardless... so anime and stuido basically only care about the "Anime ONLY fans".. and extend for their enjoyment of the fight...
And I appreciated this episode once again
By the way.... I'm happy that the anime studio during the "Sanji invisiblity" They still were drawing him with "thin lines" in order for us viewers to see him moving.. and enjoy the fight
But occasionally tey didn't show him completely just to tell us viewers that's "how he looks for Page1/Law/ and others" in that he's completely invisible. But on most scenes they did draw him with thin lines so that we actually can see the fight...
This makes Sanji vs Shiryuu in manga "completely off-screened" while in anime VISIBLE for us fans LOL

100% this.
Despite all their flaws, Toei usually do ask Oda for important details and you better bet they asked him how this fight actually concluded. It is canon.
It's quite funny actually, since I for one always said that it's more likely Sanji got a good hit in and then got out of there. It's the smart option (no more town destruction, not getting injured before the final battle, not risking that X-Drake and Hawkins arrive) anyway.
It really is very open to interpretation in the manga. Some here make it sound like it was a clear outcome in the original source, which it wasn't.
For the other trolls: There is no need to bash Sanji, too.
Like I outlined above, it was the smart decision to leave. Not only that, but I think Toei also made it clear that Sanji would've clearly won, if the battle went on. Not only was he pictured as being superior, even guys like Law commented on the fact that Page One can't beat Raid Suit Sanji.

Totally agree
And hey... I was one of the opposite side who was thinking Sanji did actually beat him... and he will not show up again in the arc... but by the time passes.. and the more I think about it... this makes much more sense... Why?
1- Drake came here in search of "Soba shop owner Sangoro"... THEN when he went to bath with Hawkins.. he was looking for "O-soba Mask"... Sanji only announced the name "O-soba Mask" to Pageone/Law/Franky/Usopp..... The Only person who could tell Drake about the name of "O-soba Mask" is non other than Page1 himself
2- EVEN IF HE WAS DEFEATED... which the above clue honestly negates it... but even if he was knocked out.... he's an ancient Zoan... Normal Zoan are known for their toughness... fast recovery... so you can imagine that Ancient and Mythical Zoan are even better at that.... even Law stated how strong Ancient type Zoan are... And with TWO WEEKS before Fire festival... even if he was knocked out... he most likely will come back anyway...
The only way I see it that he was eliminated from the arc completely is if X-Drake actually used that opportunity and stabbed him in the back... and basically KILLED HIM... betraying him... and Drake will put the blame on "O-soba mask" and say Page1 was killed by O-Soba mask... in a way to reduce the enemy count....
So... that makes much more sense... specially since the SHs do not kill their opponents... specially people like Luffy and Sanji... I can see it for Zoro killing someone... but not Luffy and Sanji.. they are too nice... we already got out of an arc saying he's the kindest LOL only for him to have his first kill in the arc after it LMAO.. that would be too funny to contradict it

Moe and rest of candy worshippers have no one to blame other than themselves. Jumping to wrong conclusions and hyping Sanji based on something he didnt do is no one's fault except their own.
There was never any hope that Sanji disposed of P1, his location was reported before the fight started and Drake and Hawkins were just around the block.
Sanji is not Zoro who can end the fight in a blink of the eye, I have no idea why you expect that from Sanji after seeing that two clean hits due to cheap shots left no damage on Page1. The best you could have hoped for was that hit from the sky would knock him unconscious since it was a cheap shot as well...
Sanji is stronger than Zoro tho, he disposed of a flying six member easily, no one is a challenge for him except Calamities, not just any Calamity but the swordsman Calamity. Sanji vs King, the sky battle of the century here we come! Oh wait...

If only people didn't have gone balls deep with a inconclusive panel.....
We would have save up a lot of time.

We know for granted that the anime can't feature different outcomes, only details can change.
It means that if Sanji doesn't defeat PO in the manga, he also did not in the manga. Case wants that we never had a clear showing of that in the manga.
First thing first:
Dear Toei,
I know that toei needs to extend certain panels for anime adaptations but O-Soba's shooting kick was a perfect time to draw curtains for this episode as well as the fight itself with nothing being spoiled.
Secondly, I wonder how is Toei gonna explain itself when Oda confirms on Sanji beating Page-One in the Flower Capital and thus being unable to take part in the Fire Festival.
The animation was SUPER btw..!!
