As a child, Oda was inspired by Akira Toriyama's works and aspired to become a manga artist. He recalls that his interest in pirates was probably sparked by the popular TV animation series titled Vicky the Viking. He submitted a character named Pandaman for Yudetamago's classic wrestling manga Kinnikuman. Pandaman was not only used in a chapter of the manga but would later return as a recurring cameo character in Oda's own works.

“Tell me Luffy. Which would you prefer? The regular flesh and blood me, who turns into a helpless wreck whenever I face an opponent who’s a woman? Or cruel, cold, emotionless warrior of science who can crush even monsters like him, as long as you give me the order?”
I may be biased, but – while everyone has cool fight and character moments here – this set of volumes is particularly interesting for Sanji! The previous arc, Whole Cake Island, involved him being forced to confront his old traumas and insecurities, and finally seeing that his crewmates love him for the caring, generous, creative person that he actually is at heart, not the tough-guy/ladies-man masks he’s developed to feel more worthy and acceptably masculine. And across these three volumes we get multiple scenes that illustrate how that experience has changed him for the better.
The first was set up in the previous volume, when Sanji was captured by spider woman Black Maria. She wants to capture Robin (presumably so Kaido can use her ability to read poneglyphs) and tells Sanji to call for her. Everyone expects him to remain stoically silent or say “I would die before I betrayed a lady!” or something like that – and Old Sanji would have! Instead, This is actually an amazing bit of growth: Those who don’t know Sanji don’t understand this, of course. Black Maria tells Robin: “Now Black-leg is the laughingstock of all of Onigashima!...Tells you a lot about the level of your little crew!” But ROBIN understands! She went through a rather similar arc herself, after all. “No. He’s a very kind man. You don’t need to know what it means that Sanji relied upon me for help! He is truly worthy of being one of the wings that support the king of pirates.”
Robin herself shows a lot of growth in this scene! She had always been labeled as a “demon child”, but here she reclaims that insult and I also love Robin’s interactions with Brook here, who is acting as her backup. There’s one bit where they successfully resist an illusion…which leads to an odd moment of bonding over their similarly horrific backstories! “Brook: Well, after 50 years of practice, wishing every day that the deaths of your friends was only a dream, one does get used to being hurt by illusions.
Robin (who saw visions of the mother and mentors she lost in the genocide of her home island): I suppose we have a lot in common! (smile)”
Since Sanji knows he’ll be useless in fighting Black Maria, he leaves after Robin and Brook free him from the webs and goes to see how everyone else is doing. Law immediately dumps a badly-injured Zoro on him, which Sanji is annoyed because he’s a cook and LAW IS A DOCTOR! But he does his best, swathing Zoro in so many bandages he looks like a mummy and carrying him as he fights his way down to find Chopper (the Straw Hat’s doctor, who will reliably do something). You can tell how much Zoro actually trusts Sanji by the fact that he falls asleep during this part! Chopper is facing Queen, who has transformed into a dinosaur, and the team is feeling demoralized by the claim that .
“Sanji (leaping in to kick Queen in the face): Well done, Chopper. You held out strong.
Chopper: S…sanji! But Luffy--!
Sanji: Don’t cry, idiot. After all this time we’ve been together, how many miracles have you seen? (taps Zoro with his foot) Take care of him. He’s got the strength of ten when he’s healthy.
Zoro: Two thousand!!”
Sanji continues to hold off Queen and then King (though he knows fighting both of them by himself is not sustainable) until the injection Chopper and the Mink doctor gave Zoro allows him to get up and start fighting again. Zoro notices that Sanji is hesitating a bit, and shields him while the cook admits: “Ever since the second time I put on the raid suit, my body’s felt a little off!” - not bad, but just…strange. The fact that he would say that to Zoro is, again, a huge step.
Queen knew Sanji’s birth father Judge from back in the day and keeps talking about Germa science and goading him to use the suit. It is Queen’s attempt to crush him like a python (part of a running joke of “Wait, is that how dinosaurs work? Huh. Never knew that.”) that sort of gets it there…because That tips the cook over into a full-on existential crisis, because he had thought he was safe from becoming like his psychopath brothers, that (thanks to his mom) the genetic modifications hadn’t worked. And, in a particular cruel move, Queen lets him think he hurt a female bystander when he was rushing around freaking out! Sanji first makes the excellent decision to . He then calls Zoro (on the transponder snail he’d slipped into his haramaki “just in case you were dying in a ditch somewhere”) to ask for a favor:
Now, some people say Sanji picked Zoro for this because the swordsman hates him. As I think the scenes above show, nothing could be further from the truth! Even though they like to bicker, these two trust each other deeply. Out of the crew It is also interesting to note the foreshadowing of this in . There’s also a warning of what happens if you falter, in
Finally, I think it’s interesting that Sanji uses And it is also fitting that he gets to Because THAT’S who he’s always been.
By contrast, I’d say Zoro’s fight with King is cool – he does have some interesting thoughts about swords, especially cursed ones, that help him with wielding Enma – but not as interesting as a psychological or ideological conflict. The fight that IS nearly as interesting is Yamato vs. Kaido! Because, as we’ve discussed earlier, Kaido approves of how strong Yamato is and doesn’t dispute his gender identity…but he wants Yamato to drop the hero-worship of Oden and take over as Wano’s shogun. Yamato isn’t having it, seeing Kaido as the threat he ought to protect Wano from. And, appropriately, Yamato has a devil fruit that turns him into

Not much to say just fights here n there
Highlights would be SPOILERS
1. Sanji our self sacrificing smol bean finally asking for help. The way he yelled for Robin showed a level of trust and respect. And Robin was an absolute demon. Also Sanji choosing humanity as he knows Luffy would prefer that to a emotionless warrior oof slay
2. Never thought i would feel sad for a cloud but zeus got my heart aching...poor boi being abandoned and man love Nami for calling him a sidekick instead of slave

I feel the Marineford War really changed something with Oda, and he's been trying to get that high again and again... and, in my opinion, while Wano is not that, at least it works better than the previous try, in Dressrosa.
Overall a good arc, that is hopefully reaching it's end.

Wano me sigue encantando y esta batalla épica sin fin me tiene enganchadísima. Menos mal que no lo tengo que leer semana a semana o me desesperaría.
