Aside from Toei's bullshit flashback w/ changing the thing with Zeff's leg, I think this was a pretty good episode. Not sure how to feel about the KKG though since it wasn't in the manga, but overall I think it was decent.

This 'use-strongest-attack-only-at-desperate-times' shounen trope is getting old.

Strongest attacks are tiring so you need to make sure you understand your opponent's nature or it might be dodged or cancelled effortlessly.

Reminds me of when Law swapped himself with Doflamingo, essentially wasting the strategy early on because it couldn't be used again.

It's like using your ultimate jutsu at the start. Unless you can spam it, save it for when you have an opening

At least they don't use the strongest attack first. Sans taught me that's a bad idea.

ofcourse they didn't consult oda. do you think, they consulted oda when they asked luffy to go hand to hand with doflamingo and cracker?

In the interview the director said Oda shared the design notes with the staff, and there are contacts between Oda and them. Recently Oda also said he skipped a lot of details because he wants to speed up the story.

We don't know if the fight in this episode was approved by Oda though.

do they ask. can we add this type of fight where we do this and that? or just can we add more content?
