Que tomo tan increíble, en serio. La saga de Dressrosa ha llegado a su punto culminante de la mejor forma posible. Tras la lentitud que el arco ha tenido en los dos últimos tomos, en este la acción no para ni en una viñeta, lo que ha hecho de lo más adictivo este tomo, y más ahora que la situación se ha hecho más terrible con la Jaula de Pájaros cayendo sobre la población de Acacia y a punto de exterminarla . Todo está empezando a cerrarse de forma muy satisfactoria, con Zoro siendo Zoro en su duelo con Pica (en un puño me ha dejado el final de esa pelea) y el Luffy y Law vs Doflamingo y Trébol, una pelea que para mí está siendo de las mejores de todo el manga, así lo digo. Me encanta como lucha Law, es un buen contraste con la forma que tiene Luffy. Sin duda alguna los últimos capítulos del volumen son increíbles con Luffy luchando contra Doflamingo y enseñando cuanto ha evolucionado desde su entrenamiento con Rayleigh con su nueva técnica, el Four Gear.
Así que a grandes rasgos se puede decir que estés tomo está siendo una auténtica maravilla de leer. La narrativa está siendo muy rápida, pero en ningún momento te pierdes en ella o te cansa lo que lees. Eso solo hace que puedas disfrutar aún más del tomo. Todo lo que se había estado exponiendo en los anteriores volúmenes ahora por fin se cierra, y lo hace de una manera que al lector le resulta muy satisfactoria.
En serio, casi me da pena que este arco vaya acabarse. Y digo “casi” porque las historias y los arcos que vienen van a ser muy, muy interesantes.

Zoro fights Pica and defeats in the most fun way possible and then there is the emotional scene and the fight between Luffy and Doflamingo and its f***ing epic no spoilers but yeah he unlocks a new gear and when the transformation happens the fight picks up fast and they fight like there is no tomorrow, massive attacks and one upping the another meanwhile people trying to escape as the string closes around them. The endgame is here and its just wow.

Supreme king haki vs. supreme king haki! Yet again Luffy is in an epic climatic battle on an island that turns out to not be what it seems, but this time with Doflamingo the stakes do seem high. It's been years in the making, and I'm really enjoying this arc. The backstory with the Celestial Dragons, and Traflagar Law. Of course, Zolo's fight. Now.... GEAR FOUR!
I'm really looking forward to seeing how Dressrosa ends, as Luffy looms ever closer to becoming the KING OF THE PIRATES!!!

En este volumen terminaron de caer todos los ejecutivos, Kyros venció a Diamante vengando la muerte de Scarlett y protegiendo a su hija. Por otra parte Zoro venció a Pika cortandolo en muchas partes hasta que salió, ya que tenía una fruta tramposa xd
Por último, Law acabo con Trébol usando su brazo cortado y ya solo falta Doffy. Luffy vs Doflamingo mientras la jaula sigue acercándose y presenciamos el gear 4.

The cage begins to close. The razor-wires pull forward and slice through everything, even stone, certainly flesh. Damn overkill, I say: Doflamingo's power is plain absurd even by the standards of this setting.
And so is Trafalgar Law's, but in a more fun way, I think: I enjoy seeing him come up with new ways of using his teleportation and switching about and how he tricks the enemy around with it. Still not sure how it makes the gamma knife, though. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with teleportation...
Great call-back with Bellamy, to his and Luffy's first encounter. A lot less awesome this time and far more sad. I feel sorry for the guy.
But nevermind all that, Gear Fou-
No, you know what? Nevermind that too. You don't need to be told how awesome yet hilarious the power is. Instead let's talk about Doflamingo's counter, and what that sets up. Devil Fruits can awaken! Powerful as they are, they're asleep, dormant... dreaming, perhaps, putting out only a minuscule part of their true power. Only when the wielder is ready do they let go the rest. A single panel opened the floodgates of our imagination. What would Luffy's awakening be like? He's the main character after all, so it should be safe to say that Gum-Gum Fruit would also awaken, before long...
A seven-year build-up begins here.

Luffy vs. Doflamingo! Absolutely epic and I tore through this volume. I think this is probably my favorite arc in the entire series!!
November 7, 2024
After being on the fence/let down by the last volume, Volume 78 was a marked improvement! The last of the Don Quixote Family officers are down in fairly satisfying ways. Again I get how they’re trying to be sweet by not letting Rebecca fight and become corrupted but she was a trained gladiator who had a talent of getting her opponents to be disqualified and surely they could have used that here. Robin’s a bit better but a more active role would have been nice.
The real draw is Traffy and Luffy taking on Mingo and after seeing Mingo be pretty much invincible for so long it's nice to see him start to take hits. As OP as I thought Law was in Punk Hazard, his backstory and struggles throughout the arc have endeared me to him. I appreciated that he managed to get a few good moves in despite being as maimed as he was by Mingo . The real star of the volume is our protagonist. Luffy’s Gear 4 form is goofy but I appreciate how he’s not heroic looking but he’s still intimidating. It makes him all the funniest of a shonen protagonists. And regardless of his looks he gets the job done and is hurting Mingo. Plus there’s that iconic shot of him stopping Mingo’s foot (seen it a lot but always lacked context).
Not as good as two volumes ago but a step up and feels appropriately climatic.

Arc 27: Dressrosa
5 straight Double Page of Zoro's awesomeness in defeating Pica 🔥🔥
Both Pica and Diamante was defeated by Zoro and Kyros respectively. Bellamy also defeated by Luffy. Luffy and Law continued to fight Doflamingo and Trebol. Law is worn out but able to defeat Trebol. Doflamingo have a Conqueror Haki (Haoshoku no Haki) since he is a kid. Trebol, Pica and Diamante are the one who raised him to be a pure evil, to be a king.
The Tontatta tribe managed to destroy all the Smile factories. The birdcage surrounding Dressrosa was keep shrinking and destroyed eveything in its path.
Luffy unlocked new gear, Gear 4: Bounce Man. He managed to overpower Doflamingo. But, Doflamingo have already awakened his devil fruit.

kyros managed to knock out diamanté. the last conk on the head was by scarlet’s tombstone. 😭
the factory was destroyed by the dwarfs and franky.
luffy knocked out bellamy. while fighting, law’s arm was cut off. luffy managed to throw law to robin to take care.
luffy’s energy was sapped after using gear four. so he requested 10 minutes of rest and the people in the colloseum helped him. sabo stepped in too.

After so many volumes of very slow progress, it was nice to start seeing a lot of POVs finish off their conflict in this volume. It felt like there was a lot more progression in this volume! I also don't know if it is all quite over yet with how it ended, but I am hopeful we are super close!
March 17, 2022
I thought the beginning of this arc was a bit slow, but I'm way too invested now.

“I understand that I chose the wrong man to idolize...and how pitiful that makes me. If I’m gonna be an idiot, I’ve gotta see that choice through to its end”
Huh...didn’t expect that from Bellamy.

I reccommend this book because It is exactly like the show with how Luffy and Law are fighting against Doflamingo, and how Luffy used his Gear 4 to finally defeat Doflamingo and save Dressrosa. I reccommend this book because it is action packed with the fight against Doflamingo and how they're struggling against his string devil fruit. It is also very emotional when Luffy first seen Law's "dead body." Overall, I reccommend this book to all anime and manga lovers.

I’m always a bigger fan of towards the end of arcs. It’s much more epic this way. Like gear four is absolutely insane. I’ve been on the edge of my seat this whole volume.

Per carità, lo seguo da una vita; è inutile dire che mi piace la storia. Ma la cadenza biblica delle uscite sta diventando irritante e il solito schema (arrivo sull'isola; problemi; i pirati di cappello di paglia entrano in azione; nessuno ha fiducia in loro; problema risolto (con tanto di mega-pugno finale); tutti sono entusiasti di loro e gli saranno per sempre amici; passaggio isola successiva; tornare all'inizio della parentesi) ripetitivo.
Forse sarebbe il caso di cominciare a tirare le fila del discorso e chiudere la vicenda con un finale degno, invece di continuare a portarla a oltranza tramite i soliti schemi già noti.
Qui, comunque, pare d'essere finalmente in dirittura d'arrivo... almeno per quel che riguarda la parentesi di Dressrosa.
Questo volume fa un po' parte di quei volumi di passaggio nei quali non accade nulla di sostanziale.

Nachdem Kyros den Ober-Kommandanten Diamante ausgeschaltet hat, bleiben der Don-Quichotte-Family nur noch vier Männer.
Bellamy, die Hyäne, die beiden Ober-Kommandanten Pica und Trebol und der gegenwärtige König und Samurai der Meere Don Quichotte de Flamingo selbst.
Doch nicht nur von ihnen geht eine Gefahr aus, auch der Vogelkäfig, den De Flamingo erschaffen hat, bedroht Dress Rosa und seine Bewohner.
Werden Ruffy und seine Verbündeten siegen?
"Der Charismatiker des Bösen" von Eiichiro Oda ist der achtundsiebzigste Band der One Piece Reihe.
Die Kämpfe auf Dress Rosa gehen weiter und nach und nach schalten Ruffys Verbündete die Mitglieder der Don-Quichotte-Family aus, sodass bald nur noch De Flamingo selbst steht.
Aber dieser erweist sich als harter Gegner, sodass Ruffy wieder mal in die Trickkiste greifen muss.
Ich liebe den Dress Rosa Arc einfach! Das ist ja das erste Mal, dass ich diesen lese und die Handlung kann mich echt fesseln, auch weil ich die Charaktere so gerne mag!
Don Quichotte de Flamingo ist einfach ein sehr charismatischer und spannender Gegner und Law mag ich ja auch richtig gerne! Dazu noch die Familie Riku, die Tontattas und auch die Kämpfer des Corrida-Kolosseums, die mir zu Beginn des Arcs ja zu zahlreich waren, nun aber ihren Platz gefunden haben!
Es gab auch in diesen Band wieder einen kleinen Rückblick, durch den wir erfahren, wie De Flamingo auf seine Ober-Kommandanten traf, der Beginn des Übels.
Es war wieder einmal total spannend und ich bin gespannt, wie es im nächsten Band weitergeht!
Fazit:
"Der Charismatiker des Bösen" von Eiichiro Oda hat mir von der ersten bis zur letzten Seite richtig gut gefallen!
Ich liebe die Charaktere, die Handlung kann mich mitreißen und die Kämpfe sind sehr spannend, ich freue mich auf den nächsten Band!

Lo sé, me cuesta mucho estar al día con las novedades de las series que “llevo al día” y eso hace que el tomo 78 de One Piece se pase por el blog casi un año más tarde de su salida. Pero bueno, qué se le va a hacer, no tengo más tiempo XD.
Me ha gustado el arranque del tomo porque no me ha costado nada ubicarme: seguimos en Dresdrossa (o como se escriba) con todo el mundo luchando o sobreviviendo como puede ante el poder de la banda de DoFlamingo.
El tomo en sí finiquita los combates contra los subalternos y empieza el que de verdad queríamos ver, el de Luffy contra el mismo DoFlamingo. Sé que es injusto decir que los tomos anteriores me han dejado más frío que éste, porque sin los tomos de preparación los de combate se harían totalmente insoportables, pero ya iba teniendo yo ganas de ver a Luffy en un nuevo combate épico en condiciones, que hacía mucho que no tenía uno con un rival a la altura.
Una auténtica gozada de narración y de épica, eso es lo que tenemos en éste tomo, con un villano de esos con entidad y trasfondo y que promete un nuevo punto y aparte en la obra tras su saga.
En fin, que me encanta cuando Oda se deja de hacer malabares con el foco repartido en decenas de sitios y se centra en mostrarnos la acción del futuro rey de los piratas.
Por cierto, me gusta el dibujo, pero se me hace demasiado recargado en muchas ocasiones. Me hace falta un formato deluxe para ésta obra pero ya mismo.
