Quick update for new viewers of this vid. We got hit with an audio copyright so we had to mute that section of the vid. Should be good to go after that section in the beginning. 🙂

Luffy's VA, Mayumi went crazy while recording this episode. I can just feel the passion in her through Luffy's voice 🔥

[AlcachofaQ]

To think that the explanation of his power is bringing smiles to people's faces everywhere he goes and then realize we've been smiling and laughing every time he's on screen truly makes this that more special for me

[OffDutyOfficial]

The most mindblowing thing is that back in Skypiea, when Straw Hats were dancing with the wolves, the silhouette of Luffy looked EXACTLY like that of Nika. And also, in Calgara & Noland's flashback, Calgara's village was said to worship the Sun God. And the Sun God was also mentioned in Elbaf, during Big Mom's flashback! Years ago, Oda said that Luffy dancing with the wolves is his favorite moment in OP. It's absolutely insane to think that Oda had all of this planned. G5 has to be the most unique, inovative, fitting and genius transformation in media & fits Luffy's personality PERFECTLY! Wow!

What the Gorosei meant by "Ridiculous" is not that it's the "strongest" fruit or "Ridiulously strong" fruit, but it's the "funniest/craziest" fruit in the world. This awakening turns Luffy, people, and things around him like a cartoon, comical, or a joke. You can see that Luffy is having so much fun and this is how he should be when he's in this form. He's suppose to enjoy, laugh and be playful, and that's that makes him "Joyboy". Amazing animation!! 🔥

The absolute most perfect transformation for Luffy. It perfectly embodies what he's always wanted...he FREEDOM!

Just so you know there was a new ENDING this ep, the first one in 17 years! Also, next ep there will be a new opening, which is supposed to have insanely good visuals as it is directed by megumi ishitani! (she also directed episode 1015)

[golden_eye]

Luffy truly has the most ridiculous power in the world. His laugh is just so contagious, and you can't help, but just smile and laugh throughout the episode. Animators absolutely nailed how we envisioned it while reading the manga. 5th gear will be on full display the next few episodes 💯🥁

[darthmarth]

The ultimate power up being essentially toon force is such a brilliantly simple move by Oda, it fits One Piece and especially Luffy perfectly! Love how it isn't just a straight power boost but truly allows Luffy's personality and fighting style to shine in even more ridiculous ways.

[Axelblaze]

The Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Daibutsu is a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to transform into a Daibutsu (a giant gold Buddha) at will. It was eaten by Sengoku, the former fleet admiral of the Marines.

[sarumane]

The thing with the eyes popping and everything isn't just for giggles, it's literally a part of the fruit. The awakened form of the gomu gomu no mi basically grants Luffy the ability to turn everything around him goofy/into and old cartoon -> Gorosei: Awakening grants the user more freedom.

[AshXXMayftw]

There are two facts about Gear 5 that makes it the most interesting form to me: 1. Oda's original idea for Luffy's powers was for him to emulate old school cartoons, but for one reason or another he shelved the idea until Gear 5 was being conceptualized. And 2. the reason it's so goofy is because Oda had grown tired of how most form changes had a serious tone to them. So, instead of following the trend he instead had Luffy act goofy and chaotic.

[zetamanga]

Luffy's Devil Fruit is special because it has properties of both Zoan and paramecia. Paramecia properties allow him to affect his surroundings including people and Zoan properties allow him to transform into that Joy boy like state that is gear 5. Absolutely love this writing by Oda, I remember when I read this I lost my mind.

[Reborn]

Luffy having a mythical zoan makes sense considering he was the only "paramecia" who had transformations in the form of gears and also his insane durability is a well established feature of a zoan fruit.

[dryk]

as a Japanese. I am happy that One Piece is popular in the world.

There is a rubber tree called banyan tree, in the south of the land of Kyushu in Japan.
and Another name for the banyan tree is "NIKA"

The banyan tree grants people's wishes. It is also said to be inhabited by fire fairies.

Eiichiro Oda, the author of One Piece, is from Kumamoto in the south of Kyushu.

[Vincent.Silverhandx]

The G5 transformation really suits Luffy’s character, having it being cartoonish/goofy, fun and carefree really makes his character stand out, This is truely amazing to witness 🙌

[SuperVideowatcher]

The fact that Luffy’s true power isn’t some gloom and doom type of transformation but is basically from Loony Tunes is just so fitting for him

[sxravfx]

Ep 1072 will have even better Animations i've heard 😈

[tamasbsth]

You now it's real when Belz puts in the second headphone.

[mysaiyan]

Man when I tell you I could not stop smiling every moment Luffy was on screen, my face was actually starting to hurt because of it. Joyboy really does bring joy to the world!
