But we're seeing some action for Killer. With some of his laugh, really like the familiar soundtracks we're getting back, 100x better than the new ones we've been getting.

I miss Sanji....... hes all I want to see....

Hawkins isn't how I remember how he was, before he starts kicking Killer. Wow seems like Oda did make use of Kidd not having a left arm anymore, after cutting Hawkins left arm.

Still hating the Yamato hybrid and dog form from last episode, so this is a nice way to cleanse my eyes and mind. The flashbacks only makes it even better.

But jesus christ, how is Killer able to breath in his mask, as blood comes out? Feels rather uncomfortable.

Kid is easily one of my favorite characters. Sadly, Oda didn't give him as many feats as others. Kinda nice from Toei to add an anime original clash between him and Big Mom, even when he was for most parts struggling with the damage caused by Hawkins.

Speaking of him, out of all the Supernovas introduced at Sabaody he's the biggest disappointment. Quite the opposite of Kid who would never think of backing down no matter how bad the odds are stacked against him.

"Go partner" This episode was cold af. Directing was right up my alley for a One Piece fight. W for Killer and even Hawkins managed to look somewhat cooler.

Killer outsmarted Hawkins by cutting off his left arm. Nice to see Kid and Law vs Big Mom again, can't wait for their powerups.

After a 2 week break we're finally back in business with Killer vs Hawkins.

Knowing that Kid's life is on the line made Hawkins easily one of the most difficult opponents Killer could've wished for. Even with him holding back and not attacking at all, Hawkins began to damage himself or rather Kid, who again had his hands full with Big Mom. Like usual Law came in clutch with his counter shock, who unfortunately didn't show much effect.

I honestly didn't expect such a 5Head move by Killer. At the same time he was obviously pretty lucky with Kid's doll being hidden in Hawkins chopped arm, but who cares. All what matters is Hawkins defeat. Should be interesting to see what Kid and Law can actually do, now that Kid is back to normal.

Can't really say if I'm excited about the fact to see more Orochi and Kanjuro next. Oh well. At least One Piece is back.

so we're finally back after 2 weeks and some solid lighting this episode. i liked the light blue effect during kidd's punk rotten, purple during law's counter shock and blue during killer vs hawks at the end.
i always love haki sound effects and big mom's sure was cool. that heavy metal end tho. not the best episode but not bad either.
L break, glad we're progressing now.

The Killer and Hawkins fight is so good, I love how the whole episode animated so well and the fight pretty much all happens in that one episode. Definitely worth the three week break and that will for sure end up being one of the coolest episodes in Wano.

It is pretty clear that Killer vs Hawkins was done in a very epic way, especially the music, also it was kind of funny that Kid was taking damage out of nowhere and Big Mom and Law were looking at him and wondering

no yamato hybrid form is an automatic W ofc , pacing was dead slow in the first half but overall a good ep. with some cool shots

Episode felt really padded, more than usual I mean; it didn't need to take 20 minutes to settle this fight, which was already pretty mediocre in the manga. The animation was on-point, but the content of the episode felt lackluster, especially the Law and Kidd scenes.

It took a while, but the ruler's back! I can't say Killer and Kid are up there in terms of my favorite characters. I just haven't been able to connect with them. It's nice that Killer is having his moment tho.

After this episode, I respect Killer more than ever. He was so cool the entire fight, kudos. His blades were freaking terrific. Nonetheless, I was kinda feeling bad when he spoke about how Kid is going to be the next pirate king... I mean, if only he knew that they're just side characters on the journey to help Luffy become the pirate king. Anyhow, who knows what Oda gonna surprise us with?

As Killer and Hawkins are fighting, we learn the story of how Killer ended up eating a SMILE. Basically, Orochi offered it to him so that he would have a chance at saving Kid, who was in Udon at this time. For those of you who don’t remember, Hawkins has a straw doll of Kid meaning that any damage he takes is transferred to Kid instead. Hence, Killer is stuck as to what he can do. Killer’s allies come to back him up, but they learn of Kid’s fate with the doll as well. Hawkins comes up with an idea of what to do that will really turn the tides.

While Kid and Law are fighting against Big Mom, Hawkins is causing damage to him in some way and preventing Kid from fighting at full strength. Big Mom prepares a big attack, but Law is able to counter her with Counter Shock. Prometheus strikes back at Law with a move called Stolen Fire. Big Mom launches a big attack on Law and Kid and it seems the two are at a disadvantage.

We see that Hawkins is slamming his head into a wall, which explains the pain that Kid is feeling. Killer offers his life in exchange for Kid’s, but Hawkins doesn’t budge. Killer starts talking some nonsense about Kid surpassing the Four Emperors (he doesn’t know that Luffy is the Fifth Emperor) and becoming the King of the Pirates.

WE ALL KNOW THAT’S LUFFY JOB! ANYONE WHO STANDS IN LUFFY’S WAY WILL GET THEIR ASS KICKED.

Hawkins suggests to Killer that he surrenders to Kaido, but obviously he refuses. Killer tells Hawkins that he regrets his decision to become Kaido’s subordinate, so now this becomes a battle of ideals. Whilst Killer gets ready to attack, he asks Hawkins two questions. One, what will happen if Hawkins takes damage that has nowhere to go. After that question, Killer cuts off Hawkins’ left arm. Since Kid doesn’t have one, the damage went back to Hawkins himself. The second question is that if Killer takes away the straw doll in Hawkins’ left arm, how many lives does he have left? Hawkins admits that was the last life, so now the real fight can begin. Hawkins attacks with Straw Man Cards: Death, Upright, The Card of Destruction. Killer cuts it up and continues his assault. Hawkins gets a card to reveal the outcome of the battle, but he gets The Tower. This spells Hawkins’ defeat and we learn the meaning of the Straw Man Card, The Tower.

It means “the collapse of the old” and its hidden meaning is “a new path”. All of Kid’s pain from Hawkins is now gone and the two of them (Kid and Law) are ready to truly fight against Big Mom.

I’m excited to see all of this go down!

Stop, worst thing I had ever seen in my life.

A product first shown to be unique and promising, just to be ruined later by a badly oversaturated concept, and with a bad reputation from the community, contrived, not unique, predictable, hideous, forgetful for the base form, unmarketable (please for god sakes just add animal ears and tails ALONE). And I could just go on and on.

LIKE I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH, RETAIN SOME OF HER BASE LOOKS AT LEAST!! So then it'll be appropriate to be called "hybrid"!

Don't show that abomination to me.

Can't tell if you're serious or not, but i'll take it.

The pacing can't be helped, I don't mind giving animators all the time they need for this.
