I don't know what universe the animators were in when making this episode but it definitely wasn't this one. In terms of pure animation this might be on of the best episode of One Piece. 1015 and Zoro vs king are the only ones that are better. Crazy that they put the same amount of effort into Shanks vs Kidd as they did with Luffy vs Lucci but I'm not complaining.

I've always liked both Kidd and Shanks as characters so I wasn't on anyone's side here.

If this is how they're gonna be handling the fights in this arc then I'm so here for it. Haven't read the manga so I'm excited for what comes next.

Toei absolutely nailed it. Finally after 25 years we were able to see a glimpse of shanks true power and it was so great. They did a good job because in the manga it was very short chapter buy they handled the episode with good pacing. The animation was also top tier and every fight in egghead arc has been very solid. The direction of episode was also great and they did shanks a great aura which fit his character perfectly. We are not going to see strawhats in three or four months but these upcoming episodes are going to be fire. The last thing i'm going to say is for people that complain about art, believe me it can't be better than this because it is made for this arc.
