Poor Otama. Even though she's been depicted in the glorious new artwork of Wano, this didn't stop her from hearing the devastating news about Ace all the same. While the next installment of the series may be filler, it's sure to not derail the "Wano Train".

While there have been a slew of positive comments about the artwork in general, the opening of the Wano Arc for One Piece deserves its own praise for the amazing animation it brings to the table.
