One Piece Episode 1122 Review: Garp vs Aokiji Conclusion

Wow, what an EPIC episode! Episode 1122 gave us the long-awaited conclution to the intense battle between Garp and Aokiji, and honestly, it didn't dissapoint.

First off, the animation was on another level. The way Toei handled the ice effects from Aokiji's attacks was just insane. The level of detail in every move felt like a movie-quality fight scene. Garp's power, even at his age, still feels unmatched and brutal, and they really nailed showing just how much of a beast he is. The hits landed with such force that I could feel it through the screen!

The pacing of the episode was spot on too. Sometimes One Piece tends to drag things out, but here, it felt like they knew exactly when to build tension and when to let the action flow. We got a real sense of the emotions behind the fight too, especially with Garp's history as a hero of the Marines and Aokiji's more complicated stance on justice.

What really surprised me was how they showed Aokiji's internal struggle. You could tell he wasn't just fighting Garp as a Marine vs. Pirate thing-it was deeper than that. I love how One Piece always gives you these layers in their fights, it's not just about the punches but about the philosophy behind the characters.

My only small nitpick would be that the flashbacks felt a bit overdone. I get that they're there to add weight to the fight, but I think we could've done without some of them. Still, that didn't take away from the overall epicness.

Oh, and let's talk about the soundtrack. The music during the fight was PERFECT. It added that extra bit of intensity that made every moment feel like the stakes were sky-high.

Overall, Episode 1122 is definetly one of the highlights of the Wano arc. Garp and Aokiji's battle is something fans have been waiting for, and the payoff was worth it. Can't wait to see what happens next!

Rating: 9.5/10.

The pirate island of beehives finally reaches its climax as coby the hero of the marines musters his years of training with garp in an attempt to save the day!
