The Strike of an Ifrit! Sanji vs. Queen

I'm ...... so .... excited. I don't know you like one piece or not but you.....must see this. The episode is elegant, clean, powerful, dramatic, simple, emotional and mesmerizing. They treatment this episode like a movie. The cinematic, the color, the music ...... ohh Man ...... all of this is combined in harmony.

I don't get it for people who hate it. It doesn't content disturbing light, bad move and some weird ...... stuff. The animation is so smooth and straight to the point but you still got the detail. I think it's enough, prove it if I'm wrong or not. I can't wait to see Luffy gear 5...

This episode is so good in all the ways that you want as the audience. Culminating a story within the character of Sanji's life with such depth and combining that with really interesting world-building in relation to his abilities and doing it in a way that pays respect to the personality of the character that has been built. Then they add high quality and unique animation that is very emotionally evocative. This really is some of the best storytelling that has ever been done and in a really unique way. This really defines what we love about this storytelling franchise. It is great in every aspect of storytelling that you can evaluate.

Great animation and the fight was super good with also good choreography toei really gave us a early Christmas present the blue flames the fighting and execution was good I can't see how people are giving this a one star cause if you are you are just hating cause this is one of the best animation of 2023 so far and amazing fights better animation than demon slayer so far proud of you toei this makes me excited for gear 5 luffy and king of hell zoro keep this up with better anime pacing and the anime will be 11/10 such a good episode Sanjis finishing attack that sent king flying outside onigashima was also animated perfect and beautifully.

They truly did an amazing job on the highlighted fights, like fr they did Sanji vs Queen justice. Have no complains and especially the beginning showing the whole Germa situation again in such a quality too, just wow, the Director, Animator and the ones who flesh out these scenes all deserve a raise. It's crazy to think that a weekly anime can have that much quality and people be still mad about some minor changes from the manga, the build up to the final moment, Queen using his own weapons against him, Sanji's acceptance of his fate allowing him to utterly dominate Queen the entire fight and the finishing touch to know that he would truly never hit a woman, that's the kinda Sanjj we all know and love. 10/10.

I've been watching one piece from start to weekly ever since fall of 2018 and you can already guess who my eyes were on the entire watch of the series ever since episode 20 From his dashing appearance to his charismatic charm to women and what's supposed to be a evil pirate and his strange but unique fighting style that all ties into his saddening yet uplifting backstory

A man who was forced into a life of violence & inferiority to everyone including his own family which resulted in the bullying and torture from his siblings and shunning from his own father who considered him and his 1 purpose in life he found for himself a mistake

Ever since sanji has broken free the shackles of his neglecting home environment in search of a meaning to his life and dreams Not alot of people know this but sanji relates and protects usopp more than any non-female character because he understands usopp and knows how it feels to be the weak and inferior one who gets picked on and likes to make him feel accepted

A man struggling with self-image and courage to live up to the title of the future Pirate King's wings all coming to a flawless finish as this episode reflects on Sanjis purpose to the crew and Luffy who he truly is behind the germa genes and raid suit and what he really stands for through the use of his own power taken to it's true level in the form of flames that burn as hot as his passion for cooking and protecting his friends dreams to take down the condescending ally of his father's research that started it all

This episode has not only some of the best conclusions to a characters story ever but easily animation that rivals the goats of anime (Demon Slayer Violet Evergarden Fate Series etc) with a consistent and beautiful dark blue mist setting to match the new power-up perfectly designated choreography and amazing sound effects topped with beautiful animation to bring the justified hype of chapter 1034 to life.
