There is no indication that Gaban knew about the mechanical heart. He only knew that if you use conquerors, that would make regeneration harder for HK's.
All of the plot in OP is so repetitive that with every arc it feels too stretched in time. Practically all of those fights are in the same scenario. No one of the good side is going to lose I guess, as always
I so hope those recent spoilers are true because that would be the end of the time limit in G5, arguably the most annoying thing in One Piece lately
but the worst gen take on Luffy being took over by DF and Nika is wrong in my opinion. Luffy needed to be perfectly aligned with his df to awaken...
Imu using weapons of 19 kingdoms is confirmed. I guess the main curvy sword is his 20th sword.
Sea god's sword is especially interesting. As in Sea God from Harley Mural?
I think anime staff does G5 much better than Oda, they can make him scary and mad at times. I really liked how he just appear before Lucci with red eyes and punch him. Talking scene with Kaido when Luffy was going back into G5 or even crazy eyes effect. I really Think this time anime is much better
It is perfectly logical. Luffy could not overpower somehow with ability if the haki difference is too much. I guess with Kaido he was about even with Kaido being slightly stronger but Imu is whole different story
In this chapter Candelle doesn't seem like Holy Knight at all. First chapter with her acting like human being with feelings
Yet... at the same moment "the man out of her league" has to be Imu
I get the feeling that Imu is Gunko's father, not Reuven.
Is it just me or One Piece pacing is unberable right now? Maybe because anime switched into seasonal patches of episodes, but man - it's hard to watch. 1 chapter per episode Weekly was bad but now it is twice as bad
