A flashy and unpredictable fight with unique choreography. The tone is energetic.

Mr 2 using the ballet moves while fighting is so weird and cool plus him turning into Nami to mess with Sanji is a hilarious way to win a fight

I felt bad for Nami getting her body exploited by those transformations, but watching Sanji try to fight through his code while Bon Clay kicked his face was funny.

the new opening song hikari e sounds so upbeat and fun but having miss all sunday right there in the lineup with the straw hats is the weirdest choice for a spoiler

bon clay might be an enemy but he has so much heart and soul, and watching him use ballet moves to beat people up is something you just do not see anywhere else

seeing nami try to figure out that weird stick while miss doublefinger is literally trying to kill her is stressful because usopp really gave her a party toy instead of a weapon

I honestly did not think Sanji would be able to pull himself together after seeing Nami’s face but he really proved his dedication to the crew by seeing through the trick and that final exchange of kicks was probably the best fight in Alabasta so far because both of them were just giving it their all and really respecting the art of combat

the way bon clay just stood there for a few seconds after the kick landed before finally collapsing was so cool, and sanji showing him respect at the end was a nice touch

it was super uncomfortable watching bon clay turn into nami and then just take his shirt off in front of everyone because that felt like a really cheap way to use her character

I was so confused why Nico Robin is standing with the crew in the new song since she is literally the enemy right now and I hope the show is not spoiling itself

poor nami trying to fight a professional assassin with a wand that makes pigeons and flowers is just classic usopp and it makes me wonder how she will actually win this

bon clay is easily the best villain in this arc because his ballet kenpo is actually hilarious and dangerous at the same time and those swan shoes are ridiculous

I really felt for Sanji when he had to kick someone with Nami's face but seeing him snap out of it and land that final blow was such a relief

Baiting Bon Clay into switching back to his real form so he could finally land a hit was a smart move and it showed Sanji is a smart fighter

It was a nice change of pace to see the rest of the crew handling their own business while Luffy is busy, and watching Sanji struggle with the Nami clone was hilarious

The dilemma Sanji had when he could not bring himself to kick Nami's face even though it was a disguise really got to me but the way he pulled through was great

The Clima-Tact stuff is so creative and it makes the battles feel different when Nami has to use science and tricks to win against a devil fruit user

You can tell Sanji was struggling so much against that clone fruit and watching him struggle with his own morals while getting kicked in the face was pretty funny

Bon Clay is such a weird guy and you have to respect how he combines being a total goofball with actually being a dangerous fighter who almost took Sanji out

I honestly felt bad for Nami because Bon Clay was using her body to basically mess with Sanji and it felt a little gross to watch, but the fight was still cool because of the kicking choreography, and I preferred seeing Nami try to figure out her own weapon against Miss Doublefinger since she usually stays on the sidelines and seeing her fight back felt earned

EPISODE CONTEXT

Deep into the Alabasta arc, this episode lands during the climactic phase where the Straw Hats have split up to tackle Baroque Works' agents individually while Vivi races to stop the kingdom's civil war. Sanji's battle with Mr. 2 is one of several simultaneous showdowns that follow the crew's infiltration of Alubarna, and its resolution feeds directly into the crew's push toward the arc's final confrontations with Crocodile and his remaining officers.
