The pacing in Dressrosa is still dragging and those filler scenes felt slow even though the moment where everyone joins Luffy is supposed to be the main highlight

Seeing Sabo hold his own against an Admiral is crazy, but Doflamingo just wanting to destroy everything makes him such a terrifying villain to deal with

I really felt for Law when he talked about that thirteen year grudge and he looks so beat up that I hope Luffy can actually help him finish this

Luffy getting all those random coliseum guys to work together is so cool because Doflamingo totally underestimated his ability to make friends out of enemies during this whole fight
tellu
they spent so much time on random filler and slowed everything down so much that some people might just go read the manga instead

Finding out that Doflamingo actually wants to destroy the whole world was a huge reveal and my heart broke seeing how he treats everyone like a toy in his game

I think it is so cool how Luffy gets all those gladiators to work together like that and seeing them pave the way for him was great

Watching the Tontattas start that prison break in the SMILE factory was a great moment because they finally realized they were being tricked by Doflamingo

The filler in this one was way too much and I spent half the time waiting for the plot to move but seeing Doflamingo underestimate Law while they were facing off was a good touch

Most of the focus was on the smaller fights, but things really got moving when Law and Luffy finally made a move while the coliseum fighters held the line

It was so hard to watch Bellamy confront the man he looked up to, especially when it was clear Doflamingo never saw him as anything but a tool to be discarded once the fun was over and I felt for him in that moment because he really believed in that monster for so long
sailor_chibi_moon_396
All those random gladiators from the coliseum finally working together was the only way they were going to get past the family executives to help Luffy get to the top of the palace

EPISODE CONTEXT
Episode 690 lands deep in the Dressrosa arc's escalation phase, following Luffy's narrow escape from a trap and pivoting hard into coordinated combat against the Donquixote Pirates' officer corps. This is a critical transition point where scattered resistance crystallizes into a unified front, setting the stage for the decisive battles that will define the arc's climax. The groundwork laid here, particularly the strategic alliances between Luffy, Law, Kyros, and other key players, directly fuels the high-stakes confrontations ahead.
