One Piece Chapter 945 Review

Take a look at the Stampede color spread. It is hype calling. Not just for the movie, but as well as this chapter. Going into this chapter, I was excited for an all-out brawl. Even the first panel has someone screaming for it. After reading through, I was disappointed in Oda for teasing the fans one more time. To make the matter worse, there’s a good reason for it when you reach to the last page. But enough about my disappointment, because this chapter was still pretty entertaining; a second part of the hype train.

Don’t let the anticipation distract you that the greatest douchebag, Orochi, is still around with his punch-able face. I know I shouldn’t judge by their looks, but he’s one exception. If you were hoping for Zoro versus Kyoshiro, well sadly, that won’t happen here. Instead, the Oniwaben arrives, thanks to the alarm, and break out the fight. It’s like witnessing Naruto versus One Piece with jutsu or ninja arts in play. Actually, that’s a lie (for now), because one “ninja” uses a damn gun, yet call it a jutsu. So, Naruto then.

Sanji does have a quick exchange with Drake, and so far, it’s looking good. The thought of a chef going against a dinosaur intrigues me to no end. Speaking of intriguing, I’m always laughing at the sight of Brooke’s ghost and his goofy acting. It works very effectively against Oniwaben. Maybe if you tell them it’s a ghost pokemon and not a ghost, they will change their way. To recap, it appears Zoro versus Kyoshiro would have to wait and Sanji continue his fight with Drake, though the last part may suggest otherwise.

The one battle that has me interested instantly is the two Worst Generation members, Law and Hawkins. The appeal is the consequences. Hawkins’ Devil Fruit is quite something else; actually make straws threatening. That’s One Piece alright. The real kicker is he possessed four lives, including himself, and he let Law know by cutting his arm. That’s messed up. It’s even more messed up when you realize if he dies, three of Law’s comrade will follow. Not Bepo as well! I’m intrigued to see how he’s going to handle it; perhaps use his doctoring skill to the test.

I mentioned about the last part with Sanji may detour to somewhere else. I’m referring to the next scene, which is pretty hilarious. I got a good laugh at the startup with Sanji’s eyes turning into an alarm detector for damsel in distress. It even has lock-on feature; that’s funny. Too bad for him, because Zoro ends up saving Hiyori. Sanji was infuriated by the sight. Not only his chance to be Prince Charming was stolen, but out of all people, Zoro, the man he despise, was the guy. That face is priceless. I love his train of thought resort to Zoro knowing her and bragging rights about the bounty. Even with the increase, he still can’t outclass Zoro. That made up for the small interaction when grouped together; wish to see more next time.

We have a new scenario to look forward to, and it revolves with Kin’emon and his continuous journey to reunite the Samurai. He finally confronts with Ashura, though it doesn’t go smoothly. Eventually, Ashura settles down but after Kin’emon kneeled down for forgiveness after years of struggles. You can’t blame them; they did literally time-skip and didn’t begin to apologize for their mistake. At least they managed to bury their hatchet, I assume at least, but the curiosity stems from what Ashura is going to show them. I don’t know if it’s more historical piece of Wano Country or something else, but I’m looking forward to it.

Easily the best part of the chapter is Big Mom on the main floor. I mean the chapter’s title is named after her; well, traditional sense, but still her name. I was waiting for this moment and despite the rampage is saved for next time, I was very amused. The reactions toward her arrival are priceless, just priceless. Queen is losing his mind; nice knowing you, guy. Luffy got me laughing badly, because he believe he was tracked down from far deep in the ocean for the sake of revenge. It’s like a nightmare as he called it. Sounds like Mr. X from Resident Evil 2 to me. I also laughed at Chopper for not expecting his plan to work almost too well. He’s like, “Oh damn. I actually got it right.” Oh, that was just fun.

I’m a little surprised that Chopper didn’t reunite with Luffy, but priority has him going for elsewhere, so it’s fine. I like the jab at the handkerchief being the perfect disguise. It’s like ninja turtles wearing a trench coat; it’s very convincing. I’m more surprised that Queen didn’t back out and has the kintama to take on a Yonko. It’s what happens when you have two food huggers dueling.

Everyone thinks it’s crazy of him to take on Big Mom, but he was angry enough to transform into Brachiosaurus. I didn’t expect that form, but it works to his human design somehow. You would think this battle may be on equal level. For now, nope. Big Mom freaking slams his head hard to the ground right before the chapter ends. Wow! Now that’s a Queen Slayer. Spoke too soon about her being bullied, Chopper. I don’t know if he’s really down, but whatever the result is, this was a glorious way to close.

It may not be the chapter that had me excited in the first place, but its content has its own value of entertainment and interest that forgive my disappointment. Honestly, I was only acting spoiled, so it really didn’t effect anything from my enjoyment. Anyway, the build-up continue to be intriguing with a possible new battle and a new discovery to see. Everything at Udon was hilarious and the last panel was glorious. The only cruel part is the break; not a cool move, Oda. In due time, we’ll see if On-Lin has become Queen Slayer or the battle is only getting started.
