One Piece has gone all out with the fight between Gear 5 Luffy and Rob Lucci with the newest episode of the anime, and the team behind the production really expanded on everything seen in Eiichiro Oda’s original manga version of the fight! One Piece Episode 1100 served as a massive milestone for the anime as it not only officially brought back Luffy’s highly popular Gear 5 form to the series, but also is the first major conflict of the Egghead Arc. But things are only getting started from this point on as the anime has some huge new battles to come.ย

One Piece Episode 1100 had the highly anticipated rematch between Luffy and Lucci after the two came face to face once more in the previous episode of the series. Given their shared past with one another, it didn’t take much for the two of them to start fighting once more and it was here that each of them unleashed the full slate of their power. But the anime team really expanded on the fight that was only a few chapters in the manga, and @VishalSid_1 on X offers a great comparison so fans can see how it played out. Check it out:ย
