Sanji has no business looking boss when he's doing nothing. I want my boy to fight CP too (not Stussy though, Oda, please,
).
Zoro vs Kaku is nice. No needless callbacks either, just clashing like we expect Zoro to clash against fellow swordsmans. Zoro looked boss too but thankfully Kaku panicking wasn't to ridiculous degree.
Garp doing stuff is great and Garp vs Teach after Law vs Teach should be nice. Hopefully Law vs Teach ain't over, I know some are expecting some random panel of Law beat but Law holding Teach off till Garp arrives would be wild. Teach really making up for being off-panel so long. Unlike Akainu, Oda has no issue having Teach show off even before Luffy has to face off with him though Teach is more similar to Luffy in having to grow and prove himself whilst Sakazuki may not need to prove anything.
Uta in that colour cover is perhaps unnecessary but I don't mind too much. The cover looks nice and I never get tired of seeing the Straw Hats in nice clothes and poses.
Kuma going off to Mariejois rather than Egghead is a surprise but I guess makes sense if it's much closer. I wonder where this goes. Dragon really needs to step up, his men are making moves and planning isn't enough from a guy leading the whole group.
Lucci's high. He got whooped by Luffy and was almost unconscious, if not temporarily unconscious, and he's here spouting that Luffy ain't an Emperor. Makes sense though that people that saw Luffy come up don't believe he's passed so much but reality doesn't need to be consistent with these past foes' hopes that Luffy's growth is consistent with theirs.
