Law using his own life as bait just to land the Gamma Knife really got to me because he has been carrying this grudge for so long. Seeing him and Luffy coordinate that Shambles swap was a major moment, but Doflamingo is so terrifyingly durable that I am still worried he has some trick left to fix his internal organs
corkus_the_cynic_192
you can really tell law is fine with dying as long as he takes doffy down and his determination is kind of scary
yamamoto_yakuza_465
law finally got his revenge, and that green glow on the knife looked amazing because he really shredded doffy from the inside out
shizu_serenity
Law's whole trick to get Doffy close enough was seriously cunning, and my jaw dropped when he actually pulled off that gut stab. I didn't think he had it in him to land such a crucial hit, making me hope this might actually turn the tide for real.

the birdcage closing in makes everything feel way more stressful while they are just trading blows on the roof
zangetsu_zen
Law is definitely acting on pure spite at this point, but it was amazing to see him finally land a direct hit on Doflamingo after everything he went through
hatifnatik
luffy and law pulling off that shambles swap was a cool way to finally get an opening against mingo
levifangirl
law really went for the kill with that gamma knife move and it looked brutal to see him shred doffy from the inside like that
abelferrazmiku
it is impressive how luffy just trusts law and jumps into the fight to set up that surprise attack
nekomata_ninja
i still dont think doffy is actually done for because that guy is a freak who just refuses to stay down no matter what
orihime_oracle_103
i was totally shocked when law revealed he was just playing dead and then he absolutely demolished doffy with that internal attack
hakuda_hero_473
The pacing at the start is so bad because it takes forever for anything to happen with the Birdcage and you just have to sit through filler before Law finally swaps places and stabs Doflamingo
mayuri_madness_464
Doflamingo has the most audacity of any villain for surviving an attack that literally destroys your insides and he still acts like he is untouchable
korok
I felt so much respect for Law putting all his faith in Luffy after that desperate last ditch effort since he is clearly at his limit
astolf
Law finally landing that Gamma Knife felt like such a massive victory after all the suffering he went through in this arc, but then seeing Doflamingo just stitch his organs back together was such a gut punch. It really shows how terrifying Doflamingo's fruit is, and how he is basically a monster that refuses to die regardless of what you throw at him
cremia
Law pulling off that Shambles move at the last second was such a smart play even if it was pretty brutal for the guy he swapped with. Seeing Luffy distract Doflamingo just long enough for the Gamma Knife to land felt so satisfying after all the stalling with the Birdcage. That eerie green light looked incredible and Doffy definitely feels the pain now.

Some of the character designs like Kin'emon looked really rough in this episode and it pulls me out of the moment when the art is that inconsistent
sora
It is funny how Doflamingo looks different every time he is on screen but the animation for the Gamma Knife was actually decent
magna_maestro_141
I seriously gasped when Doflamingo just *coughed* up all that blood after Law's Gamma Knife, it was such a brutal visual that really made me question if he was finally down for good. And Law, man, the fact he was still on his feet after all that, I was just so amazed by his sheer tenacity.
inosuke_instinct_129
My heart broke for Law when he was lying there on the ground because he gave every single thing he had just to see Doflamingo stand back up
EPISODE CONTEXT
