i finished sabaody archipelago & amazon lily!
the beginning of sabaody was so much fun!! i thought the whole thing with sanji was hilarious. but once the straw hats found out what was happening on the archipelago, everything took a turn.
i do love how as the story gets more involved with the world of one piece that we see both the good AND the bad. people being kidnapped and sold on the archipelago while the government turns a blind eye, the celestial dragons torturing their slaves while no one is allowed to stand up to them, and the reality of being fishmen are all explored in this arc. i loved that the straw hats took a stand against the unfair treatment and fought against the celestial dragons!
the ending of the arc is one of the saddest moments in the whole series. luffy watching as each member of his crew disappear before his eyes while not being able to do anything was so painful. watching the crew do everything they can to save zoro and one another from kuma was so heartbreaking. they truly care for each other. as a captain, luffy had to watch everyone vanish from thin air and his own inability to save them broke him down. this was the first time we see luffy emotional. sure, he’s been angry before, but he’s never been so devastated.
this was a new situation for all the crew to handle & i’m eager to see how they all come together to help luffy stop ace’s execution.
It saddens me that this pairing is not popular at all. I think Margaret is the only girl who seems best suited to Luffy romantically🥺
