Was starting to doubt Gaban was ever gonna be a relevant character in the present day story prior to Elbaf but I'm sure glad he is. Dude brings the hype.
Hope Luffy's massive defeat coupled with Gaban's words to him lead to some kind of change in attitude. I'm not expecting anything drastic...
Luffy's line after Imu dodges and blocks his attacks:
"Grrrr... Pourtant je l'avais touche tout a l'heure!"
"Grrrr... But I managed to hit him before!"
Luffy realizing the first punch was a fluke. Reinforced by his attempt at a sneak attack with the Genie form. The "Gomu Gomu no..." lead up is...
Funnily enough the Djinn transformation did help out Luffy. The Stigma flame attached itself to his beard which obviously disappeared when he went back to normal. The attack auto locked on a target that wasn't there anymore.
Thinking Luffy was gonna genuinely challenge Imu after he left Egghead unable to do anything against Imu's subordinates was ridiculous in the first place.
I thought Oda was gonna use the whole giant lunch thing to justify him putting up somewhat of a fight but I guess not...
Yeah, you are definitely trolling.

Imu spotless 3 panels after taking Luffy's punch VS Imu bleeding and koffing across 2 chapters while huffing 3 chapters after Loki's attack.
Are you for real???
Imu is bloodied, huffing and koffing immediately after taking Loki's attack and is drawn showing clear signs of wear across 3 straight chapters. How was Luffy's punch more impressive when Imu is looking like this 3 panels later?
@Erkan12
Come on man, surely you notice the logical hole in your argument.
I showed you several panels across 3 chapters of visible effects of Loki's attack on Imu. You dismissed them on the basis of them no longer being drawn by the time Luffy showed up but at the same time you are trying to...
You said that Imu was not damaged until Luffy punched him which is obviously false looking at the panels I posted.
Here is Imu completely spotless a couple of panels after Luffy's punch. Are you also gonna claim Luffy didn't damage him earlier?
Not a fan of CGI but Wit generally delivers when it comes to the actually drawn bits.
What ultimately matters to me is pacing. Early One Piece chapters are fairly light on dialogue and exposition so adapting 3 to 4 chapters per episode should be doable even in the 25 minutes run time of...
I think this idea that the choreography has always been bad is massively exaggerated. Back when Oda used to give fights the necessary page count for actual exchanges to take place and back when his line art wasn't this rough and sketchy, fights did consistently look pretty cool.
Here is a...
Gotta admit Demon Slayer and JJK probably did play a huge part in elevating the standards for animation in shonen adaptations. Battle stuff at least, stuff like Haikyuu already looked good most of the time.
Couldn't get into JJK but I appreciate what it did for the culture. The One Piece slander meme meta probably wouldn't be at the level it's at now without JJK and that's like half of what's keeping me around here.
Following his performance in Egghead where he failed to legitimately injure any of the Gorosei and was busting his hands trying to make Warcury budge, you would expect everyone to assume a power up is coming soon. Apparently not though, Luffy got to stay at his Wano level and never come close to...
Neither Imu nor Loki are fighting at their best. Loki because of his injuries from the earlier beatdown session while he was tied up in seastone and Imu due to whatever condition puts him at risk on the surface. By the time Luffy joins in, Imu will already be weakened by his injuries and his...
Only thing I can think about that would imply some level of growth from Roger and peers is that Garp did train to smash Chinjao's head. That's pretty much the only concrete scene one can stand on to push the idea that the old gen were not at or near their prime in GV...
