| Really good bunga this episode, that nika punch was awesome |
 |
| Luffy and Bonney hitting that double Nika pose. She really deserved to have her Saturn violating moment. Build up and pay off have been phenomenal. The last couple of episodes have been on speedrunning mode by One Piece standards. We're almost done with the arc now. Next episode gonna adapt some epic pages. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I still can't believe how far Kuma's come since Thriller Bark. dude went from mystery man to one of the most emotional, well-written characters in the whole damn series. Egghead arc is straight heat . Bonney and Luffy teaming up to smack Saturn? Peak anime moment. That scene had me tearing up fr, felt like Oda was channeling some Toriyama energy with that Father-Son Kamehameha vibe. |
| Fk Saturn sei all my homies hate saturn. That double nika pose was great, Luffy and Bonnie teaming up to kick saturn sei's ass was a feast for my eyes. |

| If you want to experience peak, I highly recommend watching Monogatari |
| Now that’s a payoff and a half! I’m not fully on board with the nika concept mastered by Bonnie and whatnot, but this has been making for a long while. Bonnie’s final punch to finish off the Saturn threat while Luffy provides the necessary support to ensure she isn’t affected by the Elder’s attacks. Iron giant’s time to shine next ep? As an anime-only, I’ve next to zero clues what that could be exactly, lol. No mention of Ermet just yet. |

| im glad they didnt went crazy with the special effects like in the kaido fight. this style is better for one piece |

| Bonney disrespecting the absolute shit out of Saturn has been long overdue, I'm glad she got her moment. What an arc this has been, I fucking love this series so much. |
| 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. |
| Bonney's Nika form was added in the OP Now I got why Lilith wakes up alone in the ED |
 |
Absolute peak 🔥 JIKAI: 😭 |
 |
| What a quality-packed episode. Every scene, every moment until the end was worth watching. I don't know if it's just me, but the art style for that flashback was amazing. |

| Atlas's sacrifice, Iron Giant's one man show, And ending things with the LIBERATION NIKA PUNCH 😭❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 That was the Pinnacle of animation. Another day of being grateful to be alive to witness One Peak. |

| @5hadow17 yeah, I noticed that since I had already read the manga. |
| “Directed by Nozomu Shishido” #1089 #1100 #1115 #1128 and his last one, #1152. All episodes were strong in every sense. He was one of the names that shone brightest within the One Piece staff during the arc. It's a very strong five-episode run, something a director rarely manages to pull off. He joined the staff after Ryosuke Tanaka left and has become one of, if not the best, directors currently on staff. |
| lowkey the flashbacks to kuma/bonies backstory will always get me T-T |
MEOW |
| absolute cinema!!! NIiiiiikaaaaaa Puuuuunnnnnncccchhhhhhhh |
| if you hated this episode/chapter, just watch/read something else... 100k on IG (https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh) Discord (https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7) for anime links / news / recom etc |
| One Piece is back! They pulled it off. |
 |
| The anime only scenes make me think I have a really bad memory or just wasn't paying attention to this entire arc. One thing that's consistent is that I want York to die in the most painful way. 'Robo having to tell Luffy he was talking to him was funny. Our boy is so dense. Nika punch turned St. Saturn into swiss cheese. It made me happy. |
| I probably preferred last week's episode by the tiniest of margins, but another episode where the climax was just great. |
| the way one piece keeps outdoing seasonal anime week after week is insane. the animation and the lighting was on another level, nobody else is doing it like this. the staff deserves it all for their amazing work here. i mean, i never expected bonney of all people to have one of, if not, the best looking transformation sequence ever. all while making saturn look amazing too. there will be a lot of rewatches of this. |
 |
| Another gorgeous episode, Luffy and Bonney's team-up was legendary, they're really going all-out with the last episodes of Egghead, I love it! |
| Loved the episode. Bonney going Nika was perfectly animated. That satisfying Liberation Nika Punch as Luffy fires Gatling at Saturn’s legs, giving Bonney the clean shot to smash his face without worrying about those freaky legs. I hope he FREAKING SINKS and suffocates. Into the sea with him, done for good. |
| KUMA SMILED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| @A_Shinoda OMG, it was Nozomu Shishido who directed this marvelous episode. That explains why this episode was absolute cinema. 😭 One Piece has been going crazy with these last episodes for Egghead—many frames in episode 1152 feature top-quality art. I truly appreciate that they used a couple of OSTs that they haven't used in the anime in ages. It was truly a surprise to listen to "Overtaken" OST again, and it was used in the best possible moment when Bonney was going to transform with Distorted Future to become Gear 5 again. I don't know if somebody has answered this before, which has been bugging me, or if it's never been answered in the series yet. Garp is a Navy Vice Admiral with the name of D, but the Navy, especially the World Government, seems pretty chill on keeping him around the Marines. Why is the World Government not hunting down Garp after all these years? However, the World Government has been executing people who bear the name of D, just like Clover's older brother. Clover would have been killed on the spot, too, if he accidentally revealed that he was related by blood to the man whom the CP agents had shot down. And then the crazy oddball who continued Clover's research was none other than Vegapunk himself! F*ck Saturn, and I despise him so much! Really hate how that old fart was so persistent that he even managed to climb aboard the Great Erik to hunt down Bonney and Kuma. The Liberation Nika Punch from Joygirl Bonney was the cherry on top, as it was such a cathartic moment to see her punch the living daylights out of Saturn after what her parents had been through because of all the hellish torment from that old bastard! Saturn never realized that doing all those inhumane experiments on Bonney as an infant would soon come back to sabotage him in the end, as it was Bonney's Gear 5 form that defeated him for good. Into Swiss cheese, even! Atlas, nooooo! Dangit! Poor girl. :( But, when you think about it, if Nusjuro had been smarter and faster, he could have knocked out the Strawhats from the Sunny. At least it's all good that they've managed to escape Nusjuro, despite his speed. I hate York too! Why did she have to be such a tall baddie? Ugh. Episode 1152 was phenomenal. Some of the reactors I watched who have also been watching this episode were emotional from witnessing Bonney and Luffy ultimately defeating Saturn. And lastly, Kuma had a faint smile on his face at the end. :') Peak. ;_; |
| It's been 1.5 years. My only connection to anime is through this masterpiece, and boy did 1152 deliver! Absolutely love DOUBLE NIKA!! HELL YEAHHHH !!! |

| @itsrj20 Was an awesome episode. Gives me such hope for once this show goes seasonal that the last arcs are going to be amazing. |
| man everything happens so slow phasing just kills the vibes i had when reading the manga. how much do we have to whine to make toei do 2+ chapters per episode. take a two year bread or just compress 1 year worth 12 episodes ffs. |

| Jewelry Bonney's boobs in the form of Nika!! 😍 |
 Should’ve pulled the trigger, not because he’s a D, but just for having the audacity to roam around with that haircut 💀🙏 |

| EPIC EPISODE. Atlas has sacrificed herself for everyone’s sake. Robo is about to do what I've been waiting for months. Bonney’s spotlight. This shit is so good. W Luffy for letting her bright. He knew that it was her moment. |

Iron giant’s time to shine next ep? As an anime-only, I’ve next to zero clues what that could be exactly, lol. No mention of Ermet just yet.

| @_MushiRock11_ I happen to see it as an awakening of her fruit; the age age fruit can make someone old or young, but when awakened can imitate giants with distortion future and nika with the 'future when im the most free'. Will she actually be like that in the future? No, but she can see herself like her father or her hero. |
