'Hard to follow': One Piece fans divided as animator Vincent Chansard addresses overanimation claims in Luffy vs Kizaru fight
After watching the Luffy vs. Kizaru fight in One Piece recently, fans began calling it "overanimated," suggesting that too much was happening within the frames during the scene. Many tweets and comments about the issue went viral on social media, eventually catching the attention of animator Vincent Chansard, who later responded to the claims. The animator said, 'I'm not sure what overanimation would mean; one guy is literally the god of the sun, and the other is literally light.' Following his statement, fans were divided while some agreed with him, others did not. Fans react after One Piece animator Vincent Chansard addresses overanimation claims in Luffy vs Kizaru fight There's no denying that the Luffy vs. Kizaru fight was truly epic and became one of the most remarkable moments in the anime's recent episodes. However, the 'overanimation' made it 'hard to follow', a sentiment fans continue to express even after Chansard's clarification. Some however also said that more than the animation, the sound design was a problem. One wrote, 'I had more problem with the sound than I did the animation personally.' Another added, 'I think it was hard to follow in some parts only but not as a whole, like "what is happening here".' A third went on to add, 'People are not confused because g5 skills are hard to grasp due to being a god nor kizarus skills due to being light, its a problem of the animation direction and how they chose to portray it.' Also, it's important to note that one of the animators, Sota Shigetsugu, had called out the bad sound production in One Piece. He had written in Japanese, 'Toei should urgently fire the sound team for One Piece. That's not the work of professionals.' Is the Luffy vs. Kizaru Fight in One Piece overanimated? The fight between Kizaru and Luffy was undoubtedly a thrilling, high-stakes event. As admirers describe it as both a visual masterpiece and "hard to follow," however, the discussion about anime's animation quality and direction keeps expanding. What are your thoughts? Was the fight overanimated, or did it push the boundaries of anime storytelling in a good way?

One Piece Episode 1127: Luffy vs. Kizaru in Epic Gear 5 Showdown
Luffy's long-awaited rematch with Admiral Kizaru is finally here — and this time, he's going full Gear 5. The next episode of One Piece is about to shake the anime world as Episode 1127, titled 'Luffy vs. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Kizaru! A Fierce Kaleidoscopic Battle,' brings us the high-stakes clash we've been waiting years for. The preview teases Luffy's ultimate transformation, Gear Fifth, going head-to-head against one of the most powerful Admirals in the Marines, Borsalino a.k.a. Kizaru. This is the rematch — 16 years in the making — between the Straw Hat Captain and the man who once humiliated his entire crew at Sabaody Archipelago. A rematch that's been years in the making Back during the Sabaody Arc, Kizaru didn't just defeat the Straw Hats — he absolutely steamrolled them. With his blinding speed and overwhelming power, he was untouchable. Luffy tried everything, but the crew didn't stand a chance. It was a brutal reality check that split up the crew and marked one of the lowest points in their journey. Fast forward to today, and One Piece has come full circle. Luffy is no longer that desperate rookie pirate — he's the man who took down Kaido, awakened the Nika fruit, and unlocked the cartoonishly chaotic powers of Gear 5. Now, he's facing the same man who once crushed him… but with godlike abilities and the determination to protect Vegapunk and everyone on Egghead. This fight isn't just a battle — it's Luffy showing the world how far he and his crew have come. #1127 PREVIEW | EGGHEAD | ONE PIECE What to expect in Episode 1127 Chaos is erupting on Egghead as Luffy unleashes the full insanity of Gear 5 against Kizaru's deadly light-speed attacks. Episode 1126 already showed Gear 4 struggling to keep up, so now it's all eyes on how much damage Gear 5 can really do. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now And let's not forget — Kizaru may act carefree, but his power is absolutely lethal. Even though he's reluctant to follow orders, he's still a weapon of the World Government, and this mission is personal. Meanwhile, Luffy's Gear 5 is unpredictable, explosive, and basically breaks every law of physics. It's going to be a fight that's fast, flashy, and downright bizarre — just how we like it. One Piece Episode 1127 airs in Japan on Sunday, April 27, and will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll shortly after. Fans using Netflix can expect the episode to drop a week later. This is the kind of showdown One Piece fans have been dreaming about for over a decade — Luffy finally taking on the Admiral who once crushed his dreams. And now? He might just flip the entire battle on its head with the power of Nika.
