Now that i had my sleep and while rewatching the episode, i couldn’t help but realise this scene in the anime was confusing lol. Reminds me of a certain scene in clover where i felt like way too much was going on at the same time.

A very small issue, takes nothing away from how great Gear 5 looked with goofyness and sound affects. But i thought il just point it out, now that i read manga, guess its good to compare in a sense.

Yeah ngl if u didn't read the manga idk if i wouldve been able to tell that he pulled out the wall and used it to deflect the blast breath. I didn't agree when it happened in Clover tho

KennyO

Anime always better when it comes to action

tommieS

Felt the same way yes, too many things going on.

E

Goofy is definitely the right word lmao

Grapheen

Yes exactly 100% agree. They could have slowed down this scene and made it easier to follow and then with that extra time they have they could have improved the beginning of G5 where the scenes get repeated 3 times. Also doesn't fully have that Looney Toons vibe. The eyes were ok but the fast animation made it like Looney Toons on crack. I hope they do the next episode closer to the manga and not do too much

Black Hill

I didn’t have a problem following at all but I also have a good memory of how thing went in the manga so maybe it’s easier for me. I rather it be like Looney Toons and slightly hard to follow for some fans compared to their old DBZ effect spam.

I agree up until this scene it was perfect then i couldn't follow up with the animation. Manga readers know what happens but for anime only this will look bad.i hope we dont see problem like this in future episodes.

Doffy

felt like some of those movements were inspired by the movie The Mask .

Ehlek70

If they could have slowed down that scene in the anime then they wouldn't have needed to stretch that flashback so much. Then the episode would be way better. And I'm saying that when I would give this episode a 9.5/10.

Zanarkand

watched a bunch of reactions and almost none of them realised what happened during that scene in the anime lol

C H

Totally agree. They needed to slow down and zoom out to show the blast breath rebounding off the rubber wall. I think it was done very very poorly imo. They tried way to hard.

garf

They honestly picked the wrong animator for the scene, since he mostly does hand to hand combat and is one of the best on the planet at it.

MadSkillz

next episode should be better with the fighting animation i think. this episode they really just flexed how goofy Oda wants the power up to be

Mel

Imo the anime did way better and it was clear to me

Zubayr

I could easily tell what was going on

jikaem

weilin zhang is also known for very intricate fx works (mob psycho, pokemon, f/go amongst others). this choice made perfect sense to me. I do get that it feels overwhelming to some, but this cut is absolutely unbelievable nonetheless

StarPlatinum

They always do this. They take simple scenes and overcomplicate them with weird angles, sped up movement, or convoluted effects.

Avoness World

They definitely could’ve slowed down the luffy eye popping out scene. It was super fast . Toei always slows scenes down I’m wondering why they could’ve just slow down a little bit with it

GS

Whoever did the storyboarding for 1015 should have handled this episode. There was way too much jank for how important this event in show is supposed to be. Reused animation, slavish adherence to manga pacing. It just didn't work. Forget 1015, just think back to gear 4 snake man introduction in the anime. That was awesome. This was not. They still have ample opportunity to finish gear 5 fight strong. But they dropped the ball on gear 5 introduction.

PokeBaal

People are just blind lmao

PieRat

Totally agree. The animation there was FIRE but i honestly would not be able to understand what Luffy did if i didnt read the manga. I am not knowledgeable on the matter and sorry if i sound stupid but i wonder if they could outright skip one or two of those repeated luffy scenes and just make the animation on that part a bit slower.

PieRat

Also that's the reason i personally prefer manga. You can take your time to understand what happens on each panel before continuing.

Razz

Yes the direction was bad this episode

Skele

This scene was so over saturated. I felt like the camera need to zoom out a bit. Luffy was moving so fast and there were so many visual FX that I felt like I was having a schizophrenic attack. Toei really needs to do better

Johnn

Yeah, after rewatching it again, i ended up getting a headache lol. Toei really had over a year for this one episode and they reused luffy's animation 3 times. Did Toei really think they could sneak that shit in? The hype for this episode was below average. The art style changing every 1 minute didn't help either. Maybe toei can redeem themselves in the next episode... Probably not lol. Good thing we got JJK and BLEACH yo!

Ocean Flan

For this episode I feel they really were catering to the manga readers and folks who know what happens. Really hyping the moment to the maximum. I still loved the episode, but I do hope they won't be going too over the top with G5 in the future. There's a perfect degree of "over-the-top" which they gotta aim for.

its-RobZen

Imo they messed it up. Hyori+Orochi felt too streched, the animation of Luffy jumping over the rooftop being used 3 times is just stupid and lazy, the animation of him falling to the ground and then pulling up the rubber-stone wall was horrific and him blowing his hand like he does in Gear 3 was also an absolute no-go. Gear 5 is meant to be the form were he is the most free and can do whatever he wants. He wants a giants hand? Then it should get bigger by him only "wanting" it to happen. Just like when he goes Muscle-Mode which is kinda like Gear 4. But it should not be him having to blow himself up again. VA was on fire tho and the mooosic was absolutely dope! But the rest really let me down...

Sean O'Rourke

This has been my main complaint with the anime over the last year, the animation is overly done. Hell, even going back to Zoro vs Killer earlier in Wano. Same with the auras and massive over-the-top explosions they add like its DBZ, don't have any of it in the manga and you can understand everything happening clearly.

MadSkillz

animation is bad? everyone: TOEI WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHY IS THIS SO BAD animation is good? everyone: TOEI WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHY IS THIS SO OVER ANIMATED? lol always a problem w OP fans... the episode was great. we all know the reason TOEI drags out episodes this is nothing new... Orochi scene happened in the manga so blame Oda for putting that there in the middle of peak. the reused animations i understand the frustration but not a HUGE problem people are making it out to be... just calm down. REWATCH the episode and realize they did a great job adapting everything from the manga...

its-RobZen

"Always a problem"? Dude. Accept the fact that people are different which includes what they like and dislike. Nobody has to like or dislike everything. There can always be 50% who think differently. Hell even if its just 5% its okay. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion. Grow up and accept it. Hyori was in the Chapter, yes. But they didn't had to drag this scene out they way they did. In the chapter she had like max. 3 pages. If they want to filler or need to stretch something they should've done it with the fight instead. Reusing animations is just lazy and a waste of time as well. This ep. was pure hype and they were hyping it up even more beforehand yet they failed big time imo. Not want to say it was an overall bad episode. It was good. But due to expectations it was a big let down.

ronri

deku full cowling > luffy gear 5

Dominic

Man you seem to have a big problem. The post was not even about the episode overall or anything like that. It was about a single scene which was really not that great. So you are the one who should calm down and accept some criticism about certain things.

Arif Sanji

Where Are the reactions????

MadSkillz

and you obviously have a problem reading cause im talking about all the people in the comments hating on the episode nitpicking it and saying it didnt "live up to the hype" or was "OVERANIMATED". idc about that ONE scene it was done fine and looked good.

MadSkillz

lower expectations and go back to reading the manga than... OP anime has been like this for a while reusing animations and flashback scenes every ep. Anime was done perfectly fine and followed Odas blueprint almost perfectly.

Daniellc

I found it super easy to understand, I don't understand why so much controversy

Baker

It's the summer holidays here in the UK. Khan did say month or so ago that likely end of July into early August, when it begins, he'd be busy since kids are off school during this period. Because of that he's only gonna do the weekly stuff for now until they return to school in early September

Dominic

Did you read the manga before? Then you knew what was going to happen. As an anime only it is quite tough to catch whats going on there

Daniellc

I I haven't read the manga

Elliott

bleach tonight right? :))))

Irvin Mugo

I thought that as well when I first watch it. But as I watched the scene more, I realized I could actually follow everything happening. I think (speaking for myself), as a manga reader, I obviously knew how the scene was supposed to go. So when it first starts and it's already different then the manga, my mind starts to struggle to keep up because it's already not the same. Once I got over that, it's actually super easy to see what's going on and it's only made me love the anime's adaptation more

Irvin Mugo

The other thing I'll add to this. Despite the flashbacks and the filler time that Toei loves to add anyways, they were EXTREMELY 1 to 1 with the manga. The way they changed the Zoro fight, I was expecting them to go way left field, and they still might, but it was incredibly 1 for 1, except for MUKI MUKI...MUKI!!! Which I love btw
