Why is it so special? I can't say without spoiling, so I will limit my answer only to one phrase: watch it when it is realeased and you will find out why is it so special. ;p

And yeah, Infinity Train arc belongs to canon and yes, it is important. While it was not my favorite arc, it had several elements that affected the story later.

It has the best fight in the entire series, I think most manga readers would agree with that. So the reason I am excited for it is to see how Ufotable adapts that fight, there is one thing I can almost guarantee, and that is that it will be gloriously animated.

As a manga reader, I must disagree. While telling whether one or another fight is the best is a matter of one's taste, objectively there are at least two fights that are more spectacular and emotional.

But I can agree that the fight we are talking about is one of the best (though not the best in my opinion) fights in the series. I can't wait to see it animated by Ufotable! Seeing how they improved the fight against Rui (compared to the source material), I wonder if we will see some significant and epic improvements here as well. :)

Pretty much everything that @Adnash93 and @-Kami_Sama- said. Also, this arc is a bit shorter compare to the arcs that come after it, probably around 6 episodes or less if adapted into a series. The 2 arcs after this one will probably require around 12 eps (1 cour) while the last one could require 24(2 cour). I think the pacing will be awkward if they made this arc into a series since its only a half cour

It's canon and you have to watch it to understand the rest of the series.

Generally speaking it can be put that way, but to be frank it's really hard to explain why Infinity Train arc is important without spoiling any details about the arc itself or the arcs that came after.

The fight in this arc is great but to be honest it is far worse than fight with Upper moon 2 and 1

It was still great tho
