I actually screamed when Igaram showed up again because I totally thought he was gone after that ship explosion earlier and the way Nami convinced that giant crab to move faster by changing clothes was actually hilarious. This show is so weird sometimes and I love how the Kung-Fu Dugongs came back to help everyone cross the river at the last second.
