i get that the studio wants to show why luffy is so mad and it makes the punch feel heavy but we have seen that tama soup scene like twenty times already and it really slows down the whole raid when they spend five minutes on it instead of showing the tobi roppo actually doing something cool on their way out

Watching Luffy lose it over the spilled red bean soup made me want to see him crush those guys even more

big mom getting dressed in that giant kimono while demanding red bean soup was so weirdly scary, especially with how the poor maids were shaking.

you can tell how much luffy and zoro respect the people of wano when they both lose it over some spilled soup and the black and white animation looked so sharp there

zoro was looking so dangerous when he told those pirates their faces ruined his appetite and then he just started cutting through everyone like it was nothing

luffy using a gear third elephant gun just because some random guys were wasting food felt like such a huge statement after everything tama went through in the early episodes

Luffy actually eating that slop off the floor made me feel so conflicted; part of me just wanted to hug him, seeing him so famished, but then I remembered he's *Luffy*. When he finally looked up, his eyes were burning with such an intense, terrifying resolve that I knew those pirates were in for it – he's not one to let disrespect slide, especially when it comes to food.

seeing zoro and luffy argue about who ruined the plan while standing in a pile of rubble was hilarious they both did the exact same thing for the exact same reason

the tobi roppo have such cool designs especially black maria and ulti but kaido seems like he just wants to take a nap while they all argue over promotions

Ugh, that Oden soup flashback again? I swear, every time it pops up, it just sucks the wind right out of the Onigashima raid's sails, and I just wanna get back to the action!

kid and killer just watching the explosions and knowing their stealth plan is dead was funny because they knew luffy would mess it up immediately

Big Mom in a kimono was terrifying and her obsession with soup is scary now and Luffy destroying the banquet hall was the only way this could have ended after that disrespect

You get to see the Tobi Roppo personalities and Ulti is already a standout for talking back to Kaido and the plot beats are getting interesting even if the pacing is dragging

Luffy eating the dirty soup from the floor before punching the ground was such a raw moment and it really showed his anger

The Tobi Roppo appearing together was cool, but man, the art looked rough in some of those shots and Kaido sending them to find his son Yamato has me curious

The animation took a huge dip this week and the pacing was way too slow and watching the same soup flashback for the tenth time is starting to get really annoying

You can really see how much Luffy cares about that little girl when he snaps and that Elephant Gun felt heavy because those Beast Pirates deserved every bit of it for mocking the hungry

The introduction of the Tobi Roppo and their internal bickering was interesting but those Otama memories are getting way too repetitive now

I was getting so bored with the slow walk through the hall and that final shot of Luffy and Zoro was everything and they are finally starting the real war on Onigashima

Luffy and Zoro both losing it over that red bean soup was so good and seeing the floor explode felt like justice for Tama

EPISODE CONTEXT

Episode 985 sits in the early stages of the Onigashima Raid, directly following Luffy and Zoro's covert infiltration of Kaido's stronghold in Episode 984. This entry serves as the emotional breaking point that abandons any pretense of stealth, catalyzing the open conflict that will define the rest of the raid. Everything that follows — the chaos, the alliances tested, the battles unleashed — traces back to the resolve crystallized here.
