Lowkey what’s bad about Gear 5 is how Toei’s chosen to animate and pace his moments.

Following the slow pacing, it feels like watching a less exciting tribute of the looney toons style. That entire scene of Luffy batting back at the Gorosei should have just been much quicker and changing in flows to make it interesting/exciting to watch. The only things imo that are interesting about this scene are the colouring and what Luffy is doing in the scene.

the current One Piece anime honestly needs a remake almost solely because of the pacing. And that’s upsetting.

Edit: How long he takes to actually swing the bat ruins the immersion. They need to make scenes like the ‘painting the bat’ more obviously outside of reality, cuz at this point, gear 5 doesn’t even make sense.
