One Piece" Zettaizetsumei: Wana ni Kakatta Luffy! (TV Episode 2015) - IMDb

Flame of the Dragon

On the orders of the enigmatic Admiral Fujitora, the Marines set their sights on Luffy instead of confronting Doflamingo head-on! But the Straw Hat Pirate captain has more than just his trusted crewmates watching his back. Having been too late to rescue Ace at Marineford, Sabo vows to protect his remaining brother with the power of the Flame Flame Fruit!

 

Meanwhile, as Luffy makes his way toward Doflamingo with Trafalgar Law in tow, Franky continues his manly battle against the powerful and hard-boiled Senor Pink. Trouble brews for both Straw Hats, but backup is on the way, courtesy of the Lilliputian Tontatta! will it be enough?

 

ONLY TOONAMI

 

Also, tonight we say farewell to the opening theme - 'Wake Up!'

and greet the new OP - 'Hard Knock Days'

Oh, a new OP.  Can't say I'm a huge fan of the song.

Not sure why it's showing characters in shadow that we've already seen haha.

Oh wow, is the giant mermaid princess going to join the battle at some point?  I can't say I expected that.

So are bullets just like BBs or pellets in this show, or what?  Luffy deflected all those bullets and those goons are just dancing around.  That other goon got filled with lead from a Gatlin gun from whatserface and didn't die.  Law was shot multiple times and is fine.

Wow, those slices go far.  But what is with that that sound effect. 😄

Dragon claws?  He broke even that weapon.  

The bird cage sliced a meteor, really?!

Yeah, you caused a lot of collateral damage, Fujitora, you moron.

Sabo showing mercy too, sigh.

I never knew that before.  They're called BB guns and BB stands for ball bearing or bullet ball.  But hell, One Piece bullets are even less dangerous than BBs, apparently! 😄

Of course, that whole group of characters with Sabo had to be in shadow lol. 

This show really overuses silhouettes.  You don't need to hide the identity of an entirely new character.  You also don't need to hide someone we already know.  It should only really be used for characters doing something we don't expect them to be doing, or maybe someone we haven't seen in a long time who has changed drastically.

I wondered about that, since there were Funk brothers earlier in this arc.  Is this guy one of them?

I missed it is there another Funk mentioned? That would be a pretty obvious reference if there was.

There were Funk brothers in the coliseum battle.  This guy might have been one of them.  That would almost have to be a reference.
