    The string attached to Luffy's hat has been through more things than anyone in the history of anime.

    Luffy when Kaido was drunk: Take this battle seriously! Kaido when Luffy is high: Take this battle seriously!

    Mayumi Tanaka's performance as Luffy is incredible. She puts so much energy and life into Luffy's character.

    The drums kicking in and the artstyle changing after the clap always gives me chills. Perfectly shows how the worlds dancing to luffys drum now
  • @golden_eye2156
    The way Luffy makes his heartbeat beat again, then claps his hands, turning the whole environment around him into rubber, and the music then kicks in is the most beautiful thing I've ever scene! My man looked so majestic!
  • @changychangy3665
    Gear 5 really embodies everything about Luffy and the animators made a perfect representation of it. Thank you Toei for this masterpiece episode and thank you Oda!
  • @Kilava1231
    The first 35 seconds is cinematic gold. Never felt such intensity and freedom and power in 35 seconds than right there. The visuals, the voice acting, the heartbeat turning to an instrumental beat. It was literally perfect. I canā€™t stop watching it.
  • @thenewmase
    It's nice how Gear 5 doesn't give Luffy an instant win or makes the fight too one sided. Kaido still is landing powerful punches and Luffy is still feeling every one of them
  • @briankao6833
    Seriously the way Luffy turns back into gear 5 form is amazing. How can one say itā€™s bad or not as good. It fits perfectly
  • This episode went "over the top" Luffy giving off carefree looney tunes vibes against a predatory freak of a nature is leaving me in tears, Kaido was having none of thatšŸ˜‚
  • @Days-ru8jh
    That part where Luffy is running happily while Kaido readies his swing just perfectly illustrates Luffy and gear 5
  • @SamoMojaMaja
    Donā€™t know about you guys. But the Heartbeat scene with the drumming and colors, was more than epic for me. It feels like an other anime. I felt that drums and Luffys heartbeat like it was mine.. simply from an other universe this scene
  • Itā€™s so refreshing having a high stakes battle thatā€™s playful and carefree rather than serious and intense all the time. It suits the tone of the series very well too
  • @Deletaste
    I love that the Gorousei said that Nika fight style makes everyone around laugh and this is basically what happens to everyone that's watching it. I literally couldn't stop smiling through the entire fight.
  • @ilcrisomallo
    The masterpiece of this scene is both in the art style, roughly sketched to signify the transition between human and godhood and therefore awakening, and how it focuses on the mystical nature of the heart. The way Luffy says "Beat loudly, heartbeat!" shows such devotion is shivering. Truly a powerful shintoist, buddhist and shamanic representation in a shonen. This is deeply spiritual and makes Nika's transformation unique
  • @kingretro2360
    The animation on that scene when luffy is telling his heartbeat to beat loudly is just so majestic and poetic looking. 10/10 episode šŸŒŸšŸ”„
  • The way both Luffy and Kaido smiled at the start... For them, this fight wasn't just about the fate of Wano, or about the One Piece. This battle was two warriors at their peak, looking to test their strength. Kaido wants to see if he's finally met his match, and Luffy wants to see if he can really take down an Emperor of the Sea.
  • Them giving this art style for Gear 5 Luffy not only as an homage for older generations but to show how the older generations art style can still hold up even today due to its hand drawn quality was a good choice.
