That Ushimaru flashback gave so much more context to Yamato's long-fought struggle, and it really made me feel for her even more. Then, seeing her on the roof, side-by-side with Luffy, everything just clicked; I got this feeling that the stage was finally set for something truly legendary.

Yamato standing her ground against her father after those samurai gave their lives for her was really moving and her resolve is so impressive
