When I see you smile

I see a ray of light

I see it shining right through the rain

I believe it is the right moment to mention once again how different Shanks and Luffy actually are when it comes to their loved ones leaving. Shanks respects Buggy's "decision" to leave him, but it is an impulsive. emotion-driven decision that could have been avoided if Shanks had reached out to him again instead of letting his hand be slapped once. He doesn't run after him. Luffy, on the other hand, just knows when someone needs help. And of course he wants them to ask for it (Nami, for example, who ressembles a lot of Buggy's traits personality btw) when needed, but Buggy is too proud. Luffy would have been way more pushy, the way he was with Sanji when he refused to be helped. He ran after him. Luffy offers his hand over and over and over again before losing somebody he loves. Shanks lives with the consequences of only reaching out once.

I used to know a pirate that wore a hat just like this. Red-Haired Shanks.

A funny tale (not really)

"I'll go off on my own someday"

"Come with me, Buggy"

"We think differently! Better if we go our seperate ways..."

Don't leave me alone too...

Roger's dead, we're on our own from now on.

All alone.

THEY ADDED BUGGY SLAPPING SHANKS’ HAND AWAY…THEIR HANDS TOUCHED (mind immediately focused on that brief close contact)

The slow walk Shanks did towards Buggy just to hold out his hand and ask Buggy for his hand in marriage to come with him…it was such a close and personal plea. It didn’t just feel like a Captain trying to recruit a member, it felt like he was asking Buggy to run away with him and share their lives together.

Buggy was meant to take his hand and come away with him, but he refused to accept such a gentle touch…The last touch they had was that bitter slap.

We definitely need to see a scene in the future of Buggy actually taking Shanks’ hand…

one piece 1116 spoilers

When Vegapunk mentioned the Pirate King's crew knowing the truth the whole time, I hoped we would see Rayleigh,

and we did!!

but didn't expect him to be such a mess - even Shakky saying he usually doesn't get this wasted, it's interesting. When we saw him every time before, he was very put together and calm.

It must be painful and nostalgic to hear Vegapunk talking about the past, their crew and Roger, and then Rayleogh saying (similary to what Roger said at his execution which Rayleigh said he couldn't stand to attend), that the new generation has to seek out the adventures and the truth for themselves - repeating his words.

argh!!! the pain!

also

"Those who knew the truth just laughed" WHAT DOES IT MEAN???

op ep 1116 thoughts

tl;dr, there were some choices made re: pacing and blocking that i disagree with, but there was also some new material added that i am very into.

cons

went too fast. for an episode named for buggy’s declaration the balance of time fell way more on sabo et al

the ‘roger patting shanks on the head’ moment has young, beanie-wearing buggy in the manga, why redraw it with this teenaged, black kerchief buggy look?! :/ i wanna feel the weight of years of buggy feeling inferior in this moment

the blocking is so weird. why start the conversation with the two of them so far apart and add a beat of shanks walking closer to ask buggy to come with him? what does that serve? it’s awkward, makes almost no sense—why is buggy trying to talk about this at such a distance?—and barely adds at all to the runtime of the episode. if you wanted to draw out the scene, there were better ways to do it

and then, instead of using the wide shot when buggy turns to run, letting them look small and isolated while they’re separating, you zoom in tight on buggy’s face? and cut super quick from that face to present day buggy? if you want to draw out this scene, do it by extending this running sequence! start out with the wide shot of buggy running away from shanks in the rain, take a few beats of that before getting up in teen buggy’s face, then transition from his face to present day buggy’s

why bother having buggy’s hands pinned on hooks if they can come free that easily and painlessly? he picks up the snailphone no problem like ten seconds after his hands get knocked off the hooks

tbh i don’t like him having use of his hands in this scene at all, the desperation of buggy’s head rolling over to the phone in the manga hits way harder (and makes crochawk’s inability to stop him feel more plausible, here they literally watch him pick up the phone and do nothing about it)

pros

big top blaster my beloved 💜 she’s such a brightly colored disaster, i love her. wish the reveal trip to see her had been drawn out even longer, tbh

“this isn’t how i wanted my life to turn out… how’d it come to this…” → sepia-toned flashback of rejecting shanks?! i am. ill.

adding roger pirates flashback material as buggy starts to monologue at crocodile and mihawk? *chef’s kiss*

especially buggy saying “we weren’t able to go to laugh tale for some reason” while we see images of sick buggy and ‘we’ll go there on our own ship’ shanks………

“i’m disappointed in you, shanks” and flipping from teen buggy to present day buggy for a second… just for an eye twitch… ohhh, that’s nice

the hand slap!?! not just a fist raised in denial of shanks’ request but literally slapping it away??? excuse me?!?

instead of having shanks voice the “?!” response to buggy calling him a coward, we get a gulp? shanks retreating back into himself? which fits more with shanks standing there watching buggy leave than a confused or outraged sound would have, imo

[shanksxbuggy]

The way Shanks holds out his hand to Buggy is like he’s baring his heart and offering it up to Buggy. They’re all alone with just the two of them, Shanks displays his vulnerability and true desire here and privately asks for Buggy’s hand.

Just the way he’s holding his hand out it isn’t suited for a handshake or coolly clasping their hands together. The way it’s positioned is like Shanks is asking for Buggy to place his hand in Shanks’ open palm and just what, allow Shanks to hold his hand? Would Shanks have pulled him towards him, would they have run off together hand in hand, was that the plan?? (I’m overanalyzing their hands yes)
