Personal Thoughts
This episode highlights the return of Luffy to the battlefield, bringing with him a sense of relief and renewed energy for the crew. His fearlessness and powerful abilities are on full display, as he fights with his signature combination of strength and humor. Luffy’s presence changes the course of the battle, reminding viewers of his role as the crew’s driving force. Kaya’s desperate resistance and Usopp’s decision to protect her further develop their characters. Usopp, in particular, is showing significant growth, evolving from a character known for his lies and cowardice to someone who is willing to fight for his friends and protect the innocent. Kaya, though physically weak, shows emotional strength in confronting Kuro, demonstrating her bravery despite the overwhelming danger. The pacing of the episode strikes a good balance between action and character development. Luffy’s re-entry into the fight adds an exciting dynamic, while the tension surrounding Kaya and Usopp’s situation keeps the stakes high. This episode builds anticipation for the final confrontation with Captain Kuro.
