Luffy goes all out in these episodes both physically an emotionally. We get to see more of his character than we have in a while and it really makes for some great entertainment. Not only does he save his new friends, but he develops a close relationship with a new pirate crew that will be a strong ally for the Straw Hats going forward. Finally, he finds out the situation that his brother is in and with all odds stacked against him, he charges forward to the backyard of the world government once again!
