Imma shamelessly repost what i said in the general thread:
The more I sit on it the more I hope Oda has some really unforseen and refreshing solution to this fight that doesn't feel like a letdown for what's been made to be the most powerful, biggest and meanest enemy for Luffy at this point...
This fight feels all over the place.
Luffy should be down yet he's fighting as if nothing happened a few chapters ago.
I can't see Luffy, Loki et al. defeating Imu at this point either, even though Imu is taking huge ammounts of damage.
This is One Piece, so Luffy dying/being defeated and...
I doubt Luffy is in any shape to take on Imu after Gaban saved him from a third impalement.

Back in Chapter 1.152 native japanese speakers pointed out that the Gaban conversation when Sanji intercedes wasn't transalted properly in early scanlations.
It wasn't Gaban pointing out there was...
Tbh, if Luffy beats or even takes down Imu this arc... who will be left to oppose him?
How would BB or even Shanks, much less any other member of the WG, pose a real threat to Luffy in a 1v1?
Even if this ends in a stalemate or a Luffy defeat (like Kaido clobbering him at Kuri), the rest of the...
I'm so glad I'm not an agenda-piece powerscaler, I can simply and purely enjoy that punch from last panel without opening the mental spreadsheet lmao
