Luffy is extremely good at reading people emotionally and he saw the tiny second of hesitation on Sanjis face and realized Sanji isn't doing this because he wants too.

"Without you I can't become the King of the Pirates" this always hits you no matter how many times you rewatch it 😢😭amazing voice acting. This is till this day still a top 5 moment for me in One piece!

“Without you, I can’t become the King of the Pirates” What a fucking line, shit got me bawling

At least things can't get worse for Sanji now, right?

"you're the one that gets hurt" the first time i read this in the manga i bawled BAWLED 😫

Luffy's emotional inteligence peaked in this episode. When he said "so you've been lying to me entire time" he said it calmly without any anger or suprise. And that one time when Sanji hesitated Luffy knew he is the one getting hurt. God this is the best chapter in all of one piece to me hands down. Anime has those 3 eyecatchers but at least those allow you to breathe to cry even more

At first Nami was just shocked by what Sanji was saying, but when it led to Sanji starting to hurt Luffy without him even fighting back, it became personal for her. seeing someone they both trusted treating the person who saved her and gave her a new chance to pursue her dream. I would also have acted the same when I was feeling emotional

Sanji's PTSD is so intense, he is psychologically broken

If you didn't cry or tear up at this episode, your hatred or indifference for Sanji must be stronger than Luffy's willpower

I love the fact that a few episodes Hei was barely finding the will to get through the forest scenes and now he's completely emotional watching Sanji vs. Luffy. Every One Piece fan knows what that moment feels like which is why there's nothing else like it!!

Luffy's voiceactor did an amazing job this episode, so much emotion in the voice. Goosebumps everytime

I don't know why people say zoro would fight sanji Zoro has seen in thriller bark sanji was ready to die himself In moments like these luffy and zoro looks at a bigger picture

I also think you should keep in mind luffy is very emotionally intelligent, you see it with how he reacted to vivi in alabasta and sanji here, he's far from dumb and understands people very well

Super glad you caught on with Sanji after that kick. Some people hate Sanji cause of this, like he actually had selfless reasons behind it. He is doing all this for his crew.

I remember This battle BROKE ME i legit had to stop watching one piece for a bit😭😭😭

Sanji beating down Luffy always gets me because all along, Luffy knew he was lying to them and to himself. So he took the hits because he knew there was no truth behind it.

I remember some zoro fans were like. "if zoro was there he would teach him a lesson for disrespecting the captain". I believe these people fail to understand both sanji (for obvious reasons since there are hostages) and zoro (for thinking he wouldn't be able to understand someone like Sanji IS loyal and that all of that's an act)

Fun Fact: Sanji is the only crewmate Nami never refers to without honorifics. Except this one time.

IMHO Zoro would not have stepped into this fight and luffy would’ve told him to stay out of it anyway

All this time with luffy and sanji really thought he could kick some sense into him. 😂😂😂.

"No matter how many times you kick me you're the one that gets hurt" that when i start crying when i first watch it

Luffy isn’t dumb he is very emotionally intelligent, he knew what Sanji was going through, what upset him was the fact that Sanji didn’t ask Luffy for help even though he knew he wanted it, it’s a very similar situation to Nami in Arlong park and Robin in enis lobby.

This was the first time luffy said "He can't be king of pirates"

The difference between Sanji and Usopp is, Sanji didnt want to do this. Usopp at the time wanted to

“No matter how many times you kick me, you’re the one who gets hurt” Damn right Luffy, u read him through 😔

Thank you for uploading more frequently You reactions are dope man

One of the few One Piece moments that hurts everytime, Manga, Sub or Dub. "Without you, I can't become King of the Pirates." There's no doubt Luffy loves his crew(family) but to hear him have to say it out loud, that hurts.

one piece is def a series that allows everyone to cry and experience these emotions freely

This exchange really reminded me of a few things about Sanji and Luffy's relationship that I'd not really thought about since he joined. Because Luffy LOVES food, food is his fuel, he not only eats for pleasure he eats to fight and be strong so he can achieve his goals and protect his people. Having Sanji as his cook means he trusts Sanji with his wellbeing, to make sure he can be his best, similar to Chopper. Luffy can give it his all in a fight bc he knows no matter how banged up he gets, Chopper will patch him and Sanji will feed him. And Sanji knows that with Luffy, food will never go to waste or go unappreciated. For Luffy to reject FOOD until he has Sanji back is such a major declaration of love and loyalty. Luffy is not a person who tolerates being hungry for even a moment. Luffy is so good at believing in his people even when they are being the worst version of themselves because he knows their heart. All he has to do is see it one time and he's locked in. Sanji showed Luffy his heart when he first told him about All Blue and that was that.

When Sanji fed Jing... I was like: "That's the guy I would want as my cook." even a few seconds before Luffy said it. Sanji is not only an amazing cook. He is also kind and emphatic beyond belief. The full package. A good cook needs to be a loving person above all things. It's what they do... make people happy.

aside from the awful pacing I think this is one of my fav arcs, purely because of how tragic everything that happens to Sanji is

I'm Happy and Super surprised Hei actually binged with the story and cry cause he feels the connections with the characters and their bonds And I'm totally not predicting Hei doesn't give a shit about how many eye catcher in Sanji Vs Luffy episode, remembering how Hei usually really hates got interrupt by that in the middle of the story, Even Ruff Senpai confused and bothered by the eye catcher in this episode, so applause and W for Heisuten i guess

This episode was so emotionnal, Luffy's ability to read people's hearts is really something that gave this episode much more feelings. I was genuinely so disappointed to Nami and the fact she couldn't see Sanji said things he would have never said normally and didn't even try to believe or have faith in his friend. She didn't even try to understand its reasons "whatever the reason is, he can't do this". She literraly knew nothing of what was going on but was already blaming Sanji, even though I understand she was trying to defend her captain, it doesn't mean it blinded her ability to believe in her friend. I thought she was smart but Luffy outsmarted her here when it comes to read people hearts.

This is also the hardest ive ever cried watching one piece. Theres just something that hits especially hard about someone seeing someone else trying to self sabotage a the relationship and going no. Im, not going to leave you. Your still my friend and i know this is hurting you more than me

“No matter how many times you kick me… you’re the one that gets hurt” that line ALWAYS gets me without fail. I’ve seen people say one piece is good for the humour and goofy side, but the emotional sides like ace, the fish man pirates background, merry, and this scene with sanji… oda does emotional scenes as well as any other mangaka

The voice acting is at absolute MasterClass level. It does not get better than that.

Seeing this goofy as kid say "I am gonna become King of Pirates "for 800 episodes and then he says he "cant become without" man... Goda!

This was the episode I caught up to One Piece on. I remember it so clearly because I balled my eyes out and remember looking for part two of the fight and not realizing that I was on the latest episode due to how Crunchyroll's Up Next was set up in 2017 where you couldn't see what was next without scrolling. Absolutely fueled the addiction bc I was waiting all week for an episode for the first time and it was on one of the greatest OP episodes of all time.

For me, the difference between Usopp and Sanji, is Usopp chose to fight when he didnt have to, but Sanji feels like he has no choice, but doesnt want to

"i'd do anything to go back to thriller bark" Heisuten in thriller bark: 😴

Even if Luffy is usually dumb, he can read people better than anyone else, so it's no surprise he caught on Sanji's act.

I like how when whitebeard died trying to save his son he didn't cry but in a arc when sanji got kidnapped to be married to a beautiful women he's so sad

This is what one piece is about. What other anime has this much emotion packed into one scene? Truly a work of art. I love moments like this over super flashy fights. The music and voice acting in episode 808 are so perfect it's actually astonishing...

this is an example of when Oda can cook better than Sanji

Finally this episode came. It's my favourite arc because of this exact moment, this shit broke me. Loved the moment, loved the energy of this episode and live to see your reaction Keep the amazing reactions!!

What a beautiful reaction Heisuten, love the real emotion that you feel, made me cry along with you even though I didn't cry when first watching this scene

the only time luffy told he couldnt become the king of the pirates

The pain this episode gave man

And that's why Luffy is my Best MC of all Time 💖.. He prove his word that he said in Episode 1.

Sanji couldn't even look at Nami in the eyes after she slapped him because he was so ashamed.

The voice acting from Luffy... Holy shit. That got me hard the first time I watched

Sanji backstory hits different + this heartbroken fight 💔

There's one layer of character traits about Sanji you need to understand. All this time, Sanji has a self-worthiness issue. From his childhood he was told that he is weak, useless, too kind, trash, bullied by his own father and siblings. Sanji sees himself as not worthy to be loved and can be replaceable. That's why in Thriller Bark he said go find a new cook. But Luffy is pretty clever to understand human emotions. That's why he did not buy Sanji's BS. That's why he told him "Without You I cannot be a Pirate King".

There hv beren only 3 moments that have genuinely made me cry 1. Going Merry's death 2. Ace's death 3. Luffy vs Sanji These 3 moments just genuinely hit is with unlimited sadness. I cannot imagine anyone willing keeping a happy face after watching them. One piece is truly amazing.

after the first time i watched this. i was never again able to rewatch their fight scene

The voice crack of luffy when he Says Ore Wa

that outro will ALWAYS get me. That outro is the perfect example of why one piece stands out from the rest. You need the series to be this long in order to feel like you really sailed the journey with them. They shouldve named that song 808s heartbreak v2

THERE'S NO MAN WHO HASN'T CRIED IN THIS FIGHT, BRO. ONE PIECE KNOWS HOW TO DESTROY US

Reasons like this always make me feel great about having luffy as my favorite MC

Oada made sure to make us cry with that song after the fight

Bro you know you love the series when you just love seeing characters doing normal shit like in thriller bark I would give anything to watch straw hats just chilling and goofing for an arc

To this day this is one of the best episodes in One Piece Shi got me sobbing

You know if Luffy is swearing off eating, that shit just got serious.

I remember reading this chapter and crying non stop 😢

i honest to fuck forgot how much these episodes broke me... tears are literally streaming down my face

Your one piece reaction is the only thing that's keeping me alive so keep em coming

I fucking cried when they gave the recap with the iconic music 😢

Bro is speedrunning upload schedule, now with premiere That being said, concasse is my favorite move from sanji 🔥 but this episode is pain 💔

when I came here, I was mentally prepared, and cut to 17 minutes later, I'm crying my "ASS OFF"

This and Sanji seeing pudding's real Identity really broke me

This part of One Piece makes me cry more than any other. It hits so fucking hard. Also Luffy is dumb generally but emotionally he is not. He knows when people aren't being honest

Luffy KNOWS how someone feels, and he always wants to help everyone, but the way he works is that they need to ASK. They need to be honest with him and show that they actually WANT help. For example, when he wouldnt stop nami from losing herself until she showed her vulnerability to him and asked him for help, that's when he was ready Luffy isnt dumb for getting mad about what sanji said about him and the crew, he knows that somethings wrong because he knows sanji would never talk like that about his friends, luffys mad because sanji's trying to cover up how he feels by saying such unthinkable things instead of coming clean and showing that he wants help Luffy didn't fight back because he needed to see the real sanji, and he knew what to do the moment sanji had the look of hesitation on his face, he was well aware that sanji was the one hurting

Damn dat was so tuff the first time watching it didn’t make me cry but I’m balling rn 😭😭😭 fkn broke my heart to see sanjis struggle and his captain not losing faith in him

I agree this episode was tough, it left me in tears too though :(

I cried alot ngl i watched it when it came out so i had no Idea what can happen next its crazy how this show has made me cry so often theres not an anime i have cried to except one piece and ive seen alot of them

I cry to this scene everytime i rewatch goatpiece😭😭😭

Stop calling Luffy dumb, simply say you can not comprehend luffy one of the most complexe character, stupid people often have this take only look at the surface level.

Hei talking about them not believing in Sanji, Hei is the one that didn't believe in Luffy 😂

This was the episode I was waiting forrrrrrr 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌

Luffy is the friend you could only wish for

"No way he's diabo Jambling" 😭

I wonder if oda actually has a plan to include luffy facing off against every straw hat member at some point in the story. So far we got Zoro, Usopp and Now sanji. Certain circumstances would have to lead into these confrontations, like I can potentually see Robin having conflicting goals with luffy at some point on there journey to discovering the world's secrets but i can never see someone like chopper, franky, nami or brook ever fighting against luffy but who knows.

And when you think it can't get any worse... Will keep saying this but whole cake is one of my favourite arcs

ODA !!!! Just One Arc.....Where we don't have to Cry Please....!!!! Litres of Tears have left me Broken already....😢

This is the one moment out of all that hit me the hardest idk why I remember watching with tears rolling down my face

i broke down too brother...

My favourite speech from luffy

Why did I tear up again?

bruh.. this shi made me cry all over again man

the panel of sanji talking about all blue is one of my favorites of the whole manga, this is just too sad

Think about it...luffy learn how to handle things...remember when he fought with usopp?? Now he stand his groud and took the frustration of sanji...i love one piece😭😭🥹🥹

Zoro might be more understanding about this situation than Usopp's. The main reason being that not only was Sanji taken against his will, not only would he lose his family, but I wouldn't hold it past Capone taking Pekoms' vivre card and give it to Big Mom, who would bring the whole clan.

There have been many times One Piece has made me "Happy cry" The X's in Alabasta, Usopp's apology and rejoining of the crew etc. This fight was the first time I sad cried. Luffy and Sanji have been homeboys for 800 chapters/episodes and it really sucked to see that happen. Especially when neither one really wanted this. Benefit of One Piece being a long story tho. Stronger connection to the characters that really makes these hit hard.

Yea luffy says Without you i cant be the pirate king and the voice acting just hit hard

So after Nami' and Robin's arc you still doubt Luffy's ability too read people? Might be just me, but I get annoyed every time people call Luffy stupid.

Its my 100th time seeing this scene. Its my 100th time crying.

the heiusten pacing is going good this week

our journey is not over yet..

blud what kinda Infinite Countdown does this premiere have😭😭

I’m ready for this one boys
