That was so fucking peak i am actually shaking.
If I had a minor criticism it would be maybe some of the storyboard in the first half was slightly hard to read, but otherwise, that was stupid good.
Holy fuck.
Also, I think we can all agree we want Ishizuka doing the finisher for Luffy's fight, because holy shit that was the rawest art ever.
Hell, they even made the ending for the fight make more sense than the manga by having King do an all out charge attack against Zoro as a final move as opposed to just standing there dumbfounded after his dragon gets cut.}
Actual peak king shit.
I think they also beautifully executed King's story as well. I liked it in the manga, but I think they only further strengthened it by more directly tying it into Zoro's promise to his captain.
I'm surprised they used the episode of East Blue film for Zoro's flashback, but it also makes perfect sense, considering Ishizuka was also the animation director for Zoro vs Mihawk in that special.
Anyway, that was a genuinely a "WTF is this for real" out of 10.
Actual peak shit.
