Haha, that's harsher in hindsight for sure.

Haha, Izo and Kawamatsu talking about how Wano will be like in the future.

I feel the scene works pretty well, at least as far as the present day scenes go - having Kiku admit that, yeah, Izo going with Oden is the right thing for a samurai to do is pretty neat.

Yeah, okay, I guess there's no better place to slot it, but having the flashback to the day Oden and Izo disappeared slotted after the Izo/Kiku conversation is kind of the only appropriate way to do it.(The anime team deciding to goldenify Conqueror Infusion would lay a lot of debates to rest, I think, about who has what sub-sub-type of Haki). Good fucking mother, though, that was way too pretty of a special effects sequence for Big Mom taking out fucking Page One.was it a last-minute change to have them survive? Honestly, this is probably one of the bigger weaknesses of the arc as a whole. Oh yeah, the anime did really play up the fact that fucking Holdem burned down Okobore Town, and Big Mom getting pissed off, huh? That shot of Tsuru's hair being blown away by the flame.Wait, Big Mom remembers 'cat burglar' but not ' god'?.From a narrative or character development standpoint, this part really needs to get addressed. Yeah, speaking of the manga, we really still need more payoffs to this part of Big Mom's characterization.well, Big Mom is still the one that ultimately takes down Page One, but this is a nice extension that gives Nami and Usopp a much-needed badass moment here. We even get a brand-new named attack from Usopp, the firework flower, right before the manga's pinecone bombs. Huh, so we actually get to see an extended scene of Nami and Usopp being brave to protect Tama.Poor Page One, you get absolutely no respect from anyone. Okay, yeah, Page One is totally being bullied.But Law being smart is definitely in-character! Pretty sure Law realizing that Zeus would be troublesome for Luffy and then teleporting him down is something off-screen in the manga.

in-between stuff? Basically the moment where Big Mom takes out Page One, while Nami, Usopp and Tama runs around? And the much-maligned 'Mothering Mode'? It's done well for what it is, but it's kind of unfortunate that this is the episode we come back to after a break.
