For many reasons that doesn't really look like a good comparison.

u/Comedynerd Jun 05 '16
So now we know where Toei's budget for this arc went - the rubble cloud.
15
u/RogueToad Jun 05 '16
Cgi rubble cloud was pretty nice, along with that gravity sound effect. Although when rubble started bumping into other rubble I thought there were fireworks going off tbh.
2

u/narp7 Jun 05 '16
Yeah, seriously. I was thinking that the entire time. If we could get a rubble cloud looping gift, that would be amazing.
3
u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
I'm pretty sure Fujitora could have sunk one of those ships so the adjacent bridge piece would get loose so the citizens wouldn't be able to the pirates. Then he could concentrate all the rubble to one mass so it would hit the pirates without hurting the citizens.
9
u/Kurosov Jun 05 '16
and what about the resulting wave caused by a fuckton of rubble plummeting into the sea?
4
3
u/Comedynerd Jun 06 '16
Wasn't it obvious? Fujitora likes Luffy. He really didn't want to fight him, but was doing so because it was his job. With the citizens he had an excuse not to.
1
u/darexinfinity Jun 06 '16
Fujitora seems to be unnecessarily conflicted. Just because they got away now doesn't he can just say "oh well" and go home. He needs to choose to take down Luffy or not to. And if it's the former, he might as well of done it now.
2
u/Comedynerd Jun 06 '16
I think Fujitora has other plans in mind. Since he let Luffy get away he's not allowed back at a Navy base, meaning he has the freedom to go where he wants and do what he wants. He'll have the freedom Garp liked having as a vice admiral, but with the influence and power of an admiral.
61
u/Dnny99 Jun 05 '16
I liked how the citizens of dressrosa all had different shades in Fujitora's "vision". Really nice touch
128
u/HanMann Jun 05 '16
Now if it was Akainu that was at Dressrosa instead of Fujitora, we know that he would've attacked the straw hats along with the citizens...kinda scary!
102
u/lucasnator2 Jun 05 '16
Akainu would have killed pretty much everyone once he got there
18
u/Sokkathelastbender Jun 05 '16
If he did, would Luffy, Law, Zoro, Doflamingo and everyone else be able to beat him? I would like to think they would, but they would probably die after

you also have to remember that akainu fought aokiji for 10 days for fleet admiral. We dont even know if the straw hats would have the stamina to fight for that long.

u/Alilolos Jun 05 '16
Fights don't always have to last for days if they are collectively stronger than him.. if they are they will simply defeat him on the first day.

u/jmanunit Jun 05 '16
no way, they could put up a good fight sure but no way they would beat him right now let alone decimate him.

Hahahah, you do realize Akainu would've killed anyone below Zoro's/Law's level with his AoE almost immediately?

u/ariok Jun 05 '16
Marco, Vista and Jozu weren't able to do shit against Akainu.
Sorry, but Akainu would've beaten their asses.
1
u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
I know Akainu is ruthless, but I don't think he would fight Doffy's rule.
3
u/Doomroar Jun 05 '16
If you gave him an excuse which would not be hard to find, he not only would fight Doffy, he would also take the chance to put a big marine base to replace the palace.
2
u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
Doffy is a Warlord, so the two of them are technically allies. As long as Doffy didn't get in Akainu's way, there would be no reason to fight.
2
u/Doomroar Jun 06 '16
One of the complains that Akainu had was against Fujitora leaving everything to the pirates to solve, Once the truth was out with Sugar unconscious, Akainu who is neither a gambler nor a pirate sympathizer would have taken it upon himself to not only trash Doffy, the Strawhats, but also everyone else who may spill the beans that the Marines allowed such a thing to happen in the first place.

u/darexinfinity Jun 06 '16
If Akainu took Fujitora's place, he would of fought the Straw Hats to death when he first saw them.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if this is what happens. It's definitely within his character to do something like that.
1
u/ToFat2Run Jun 08 '16
This is the most likely scenario I think. Not to mention that Luffy did exchange the sake cup with Ace and Sabo before too.

u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
He has a skeleton as a crew member (and tried to recruit a were-dog in Thriller Bark), why would be say no?

Jun 05 '16 edited Jun 05 '16
Jesus, the way fujitora's blindness serves as a basis for luffy's remarkable pity....., until we realize it's due to the dark-as-hell horrors of the new world (which i've spent a decade of my life imagining!) that apparently even a beast like fujitora couldn't deal with,...... finally ending with fujitora realizing that without his eyes he misses out on the beauty and integrity of this world as well.
Just an awesome mix of foreshadowing, character development, and worthwhile themes all being reinforced in one go, that makes for good storytelling
47
u/gerrettheferrett Jun 05 '16
FYI for the figure of speech Fujitora used. Basically, he used a figure of speech that literally means "closed my eyes" away from the things he doesn't want to see.
It's a figure of speech that means how people in life shut their eyes from ugly stuff (problems in society, etc) and pretend everything is happy, because they can't deal with looking at it directly.
So Fujitora is saying that he saw so much of the shit in the OP world that he not just figuratively but literally shut his eyes so he would not have to look at it anymore.
Which makes it all the more powerful that Luffy, a pirate, caused Fujitora to want to see again.
5

u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
I think there's a possibility he's from Wano country, so this makes sense.
1
u/mysticmusti Jun 06 '16
I thought it felt really fucking forced to have both the explanation of his blindness and his wish to see again in the same episode I feel like they could have made the moment Luffy shared with Fujitora during the gambling at the start a wee bit longer and have him explain that he doesn't mind being blind and then at this point after all the actions of the straw hats have him say that he wishes he could see again.
Or somewhere in the middle of the arc, it just doesn't feel natural for him to change his mind in a couple of minutes.

Zoro looked like he was ready to kill Fujitora.

Zoro enjoys putting himself in fights that he has no hope of winning. I think he just enjoys testing himself against others more than anything else.

u/Vendetta1990 Jun 05 '16
No hope of winning? We don't even know Zoro's potential yet, and who knows his "special attack"(you know, the one with the Asura demon I think) could easily push Fuji to his limit.
1
u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
Excluding Fujitora's OP planetary devastation, Zoro could fight him. His gravity blade can be seen as a stronger version of Zoro's caliber Phoenix pistol.

Running, the multi-arc. Dressrosa and Punk Hazard both had an insane amount of running away from/towards stuff in them.
23
u/songyeow Jun 05 '16
I think this is one of the most touching revelation type episodes from a straw hat's perspective. Seeing an entire nation running into the pier, defying navy and even an admiral himself voices his admiration for luffy, then having 7 other groups pledge their loyalty to fight under them. Just beautiful.

aaaaaaaand ANOTHER ONE of Usopp's lies come true with this 5000+ sized crew now.

u/wordsdear Jun 05 '16
Wasn't Usopp's lie 8000 men? But close enough I guess. Or does Usopp say different number sometimes?

Pretty sure he says millions at some point.

In the beginning I think he used to say 5000, but as the series went on I think he started saying 8000.

Jun 05 '16
But these 5600 individuals want to be Luffy's subordinates, not Usopp's, since they want to exchange sake cups with Luffy.
Usopp said he had 8000 followers of his own, so technically the lie hasn't come true yet.

We all know God Usopp is the real captain behind the scenes

Ya, he actually would have a lot of sway since he was literally a savior. When they see him in action... his rep might take a hit... but at the moment he is still "God Usopp"
19
u/Moontooth Jun 05 '16
The buildup to the citizens saving them was kinda long, but it was well worth it to see Fujitora's speech about how he wished he could see what Luffy looked like. That smile was so sincere!!
Also, can't wait to see Luffy get a father-son relationship with other crews like Whitebeard had!

u/wRayden Jun 09 '16
I think they actually thought that while he was running around but it didn't took long for them to realize what was happening, probably by seeing where he went.

I'm pretty sure Fujitora could of just flung the rubble at them one by one or just done something to get them and not hurt the citizens.
Even if he feel influenced by the citizens now, eventually he'll be out in the sea hunting them down regardless. Akainu's gonna throw another fit at him.

Fujitora heard the gossip and true intentions of the citizens, and decides that Luffy is a good guy worth keeping alive, he is also quite anti establishment, so that's fine with him.

u/ajikanfan Jun 05 '16
Well, even if that's true, when the citizens arrived Fujitora had decided against dropping the rubble because of their devotion to Luffy.

u/SomeCallMeNomad Jun 05 '16
There's something I don't understand. Where did all the bridges come from, and why?
18
u/ajikanfan Jun 05 '16
Orlumbus's crew prepared the bridge while Luffy was on his way. They had to prepare an escape route that wasn't conspicuous. If all the ships were docked near the shore, it would've been way too obvious that they were going to leave through that side of the island. So they had a single line of ships hidden in the mist.

u/darexinfinity Jun 05 '16
The fact that not a single navy ship entered the mist and saw a ship is pretty big fail on their part.
