| We've had enough of seeing everyone else, but now it's back to the main event itself, GARP AND AOKIJI THEMSELVES. Though, ofc, we have to this dude Koby... Did he learn anything in the two-year timeskip? Doflamingo said it best: power equals justice. Dude over here tryin talk-no-jutsu his way out of here like this is Naruto or something... ???? Poor senile Garp had to take that blow, but just because he senile don't mean he weak, because they clashed in the MOST BADASS WAY POSSIBLE, LEGIT DESTROYING HALF THE ISLAND, JUST SHOWING HOW FUCKING OP THESE TWO ARE AT FULL POWER. But not without repercussions though.. poor Garp man. Garp isn’t going to die, I’m sure of it. He’ll likely retire and let Koby take over in the final arc, but for now, he's good... I hope. JUSTICE WILL FUCKING PREVAIL. |
 |
| Koby becoming a liability at this point stinks. Bro fell for the cheapest trick in the book, even tho his CoO is supposedly one of the best, lmao. As a captain he should've been calm enough to use it. Bad plot contrivance moment just to weaken Garp. Rather make the Titanic Captains look a bit more competent in combat. Shiryu catched a W there, yet it's actually not all that when Garp jumped in his way to stop him. The exchange with Kuzan was still epic. Kino episode. For all it's flaws anime manages to make the important bites more emotional...most of the times. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| holy fuck garp vs kuzan continues to be cinema. that flashback was so good and we know garp is a beast but damn young garp was already a badass. the pov shots, character expressions and full on sakuga-fest in general is just unreal, the staff cooked and left no crumbs bru this one of the best episodes oat. |
 |
| Lets gooo, they did this quite good, still too many lights going on though. Something that i noticed that wasn't done as manga was in the initial meeting of kuzan and garp in the flashback kuzan hits actually didn't make much noise but over time he became same as garp's. This was only shown with the visuals but in the manga you can see the differentiation in the power from the sound it made as well. garp's was always "BAM!!" while kuzan gone from "pow..." to "thud.." to "BAM!!" |
| Another fantastic episode revolving Garp and Kuzan, so many amazingly directed scenes, I loved every part of this episode The flashbacks with Garp and Kuzan, especially that insanely fluid one, were all really nice to see and make it all more emotional. Another classic post break week episode |
| A lot of detail in those flashbacks, that's a big plus! Added a lot to the anticipated showdown, I'm looking forward to the next round of that. Isle-isle devil fruit seems like a formidable power too. Coby's got to deliver at some point... |

| Insane animation for Garp vs. Kuzan in this episode! But Avalo Pizarro using the offensive abilities of his Isle-Isle Fruit powers was such a terrifying sight! Combined with appropriate soundtrack, those final moments with those humongous island arms sent shivers down my spine! 🥶 Poor San Juan Wolf didn't even get to do a thing. 😅 That splash should have caused a tsunami. But dammit Shiryuu! 😡 |
These words hurt more than punches  |
 |
| The animation in these episodes following a recap special is always so damn good, and Kuzan vs. Garp continues to look amazing. Next week, we'll be blessed with yet another moment that I've been wanting to see animated for a while now 🙏 |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| I don't remember Garp pushing Koby out of the way. That was a change from the manga. Still a cheap trick but at least it answers all the complaints about why Garp didn't see it coming. Garp is the man though. 100% After the chapter, I wondered how many guys in the military tried using decommissioned ships, planes, subs, etc. as punching bags at least once. I bet some have and more will now. |

| That was way too stretched out. They turned 5 minutes worth of content into 20 minutes. |
| Animation was looking very nice in this episode. Garp is as badass as expected. The flashbacks of Garp and Kuzan's time together were nice to watch. I hope we eventually learn more about Kuzan's current motivations. |

| @G_Spark233 I totally don't remember that. That explains the Koby hate a little more. |
| Garp is just amazing, so sad he got stabed due to Koby been click baited. It blows my mind to see 20% voting the episode with 1 oO really dont uderstand how you can vote with 1.. |

| PEAK PIECE at it again! So surprised to so see Garp just using the henchmen for cover and throwing them around, brutal! I'm so happy that Garp got all of this sakuga and animation, the flashbacks were so beautiful! |

| @-Vash- It's just a theory, but the 1 ratings may be due to fans of certain french (I think) animator that works on the show. His scene (most likely Garp vs Kuzan punch) was heavily cut down by Toei and he was upset about it on twitter. Wouldn't be surprised if his fanboys decided to act like children and downvote the episode. |

| Avalo Pizarro has a great power and now is directly to destroy the ship!!! Garp is near to the final of his life!!! kekeke |
| ONEEE PEEAAAAKKKK Holy flagnards the flashback sequence and then the impact was CINEMAAAAA! |

| @Dahaka_ That was already too much special effects and it was cut down? That animator needs to understand all those lighting don't make good anime. |
cry4heals said: @Dahaka_ That was already too much special effects and it was cut down? That animator needs to understand all those lighting don't make good anime. Exactly, so much unnecessary effects with all those light shows and dbz sounds is just ridiculous. Just because you add a shit ton of beams, lightings and whatever the fuck, it doesn't make it the best thing ever. |

| We get to see Fullmetal and Jango again after so long. They joined the Navy too. And the strength of Garp never fails to impress with one punching the literal gigantic San Juan Wolf, and then almost neglecting the damage done by Shiryuu, being the beast he is. It almost stopped my heart while seeing that though, giving real Ace flashbacks. Crazy how the lowlife pirates think they could get him now. A lot of great animation and fighting this episode. Specially loved the parts with Garp and Aokiji's flashback, showing them bonding with each other throughout the years with the different events happening around them. It really was a special relationship. And it is heartbreaking that they have to face each other like this now. But, back then, nobody could've imagined that one day we would get an admiral fighting another admiral character. This truly is the final saga, as cheesy as it sounds. At least one of the Blackbeard captains did manage to make a good impression now with Avalo Pizzaro. Remains to be seen how he will be stopped as Garp seems to be out of commission. While Vasco Shot failed to make an impact. Overall, actually a great episode! |
| A high quality reminder that Garp can't catch a break, and Kuzan knows this. Koby... you're his last hope. Koby has been such a major disappointment this whole arc, however next episode looks like he'll prove he's the next Garp. 4/5, felt drawn out, but really liked it. Pica-chu 2.0 is as annoying to me as Pica-chu 1.0. I really hope Kuzan comes back a good guy later. Dragon is a good guy revolutionary, Luffy is a good guy pirate, I believe in you Kuzan! |

Apparently he changed when interacted with Sanji and the gang. I remember Mr. Hypno. Hope we can see him buff Gear 5 Luffy in the future with his Hypno LOL |

| @LilyVarbik Oh yeah, totally got confused with the name! Would definitely be funny to see Mr.Hypno get reintegrated as older gag characters like Buggy and Wapol are right now |
| Oh no... Hopefully, Garp is not dead like Ace... |
