I love episode 1079!
Hiyori being a huge troll to her brother and to Zoro is gold.
The Straw Hats spending time with Momo, Tama, and Toko gives me elder/younger sibling vibes. The jump cuts of Luffy greeting Momo are so silly, I love them. Nami reading a clothing book to Toko, just precious. Everyone getting of kick out of Tama here, incredible. She is a mini Kiku is so many ways, if more likely to say her thoughts out loud.
Nami is friendly and cute and pretty and has nice new kimono. Love the double flower layers on a rich blue. Looks as if the flowers are floating on a pond.
Okiku being a charming and wonderful trans woman, and the best character of the arc, all while rocking her new kimono during some well earned down time. I love how supportive Nami and Hiyori are of her, there is no huge fuss or anything. Kiku knows herself. I love her so much. 💛💛💛
Various alliance members sweetly relaxing in the bath. Love to see Doctor Chopper having a good time after being overwhelmed with injured patients last two episodes, and worrying about Luffy & Zoro. He is a special little guy and I care him.
What better way to wrap up this post with some Monke the Luff and Jinbo being buddies. Thanks for the great episode, Toei!

Wanted to get down some thoughts about Fishman Island and Wano, a country of the Sun and a country of the Moon, and how they are strongly interconnected in many ways. Thematically, narratively, the casts of each arc, and more.
Luffy goes to destroy the Noah/Onigashima, Shirahoshi/Momo use their abilities to prevent that in their own ways.
Joy Boy is first mentioned during Fishman Island, and Luffy awakens his devil fruit in Wano Both countries have an ancient weapon.
The characters wear kimonos in both places. Jinbei's Sun Pirate tattoo is on his chest, the Kozuki Clan have their tattoos on their backs.
From Fishman Island to Wano, Jinbei and Kin'emon/Momo are never in the same place until Act 3, always switching back and forth who is in arcs.
Luffy saying this reminds me of him telling Kin'emon that he will put Wano on his back and fight for them. Would Luffy feel that he failed to protect the samurai?

Hello!
I don't know if you write for kabuki man Kanjuro. But if you do may I request #5 from fluff promt for him?
Thank you!
authors note : kanjuro is such a fun character .. so , i was so excited to write for him ! please enjoy <3
Kanjuro x Gn! Reader : “ I find you terrifying. “
note : reader is also a villain / traitor.
You fastened the ribbon of your kimono along your waist, letting the tight knot blissfully crush your waist. The fabric was donned with images of the kaizo-ji, pastels colouring the entire ensemble. You couldn’t help but stare at yourself in the mirror, inspecting every inch of yourself. You couldn’t help but doubt yourself and your abilities. Each and every one of the scabbards were so tall, so large. Especially in comparison to you. Even with your brawns and brain, you felt meek in the presence of the samurai’s. You’d bring endless shame to Orochi, to Kaido and even Kanjuro. Surely, you’d fail... Wouldn’t you?
“Y/n!” A large body entered your room, his hands sliding your door open. You craned your head towards the door, offering your fellow spy a slight smile.
“Kanjuro, hi.” You brought yourself up from your knees, flattening out the silky fabric that covered your figure. “Has the banquet begun?” You asked, only to earn a shake of head.
“No, we still have a few minutes. At least thats what Kiku said.” Kanjuro looked you up and down, admiring your lack of simplicity in your kimono. “You look nice.” He smirked a bit at you, “cute, even!” You couldn’t help but roll your eyes at him,
“Don’t call me such a powerless thing. I just figured i could at least dress nice for tonight.. I mean, it is our last night with Strawhat and the other samurai’s.” To be honest, you were more sentimental in comparison to your partner, as you often expressed your own form of fondness to the Kozuki clan. I mean, you felt it was right to treat people delicately before their deaths. It was a better send off, in your eyes.
“Powerless?” Kanjuro stood there, dumbfounded. He leant down towards you, letting a hand run through your hair. “Oh, Y/n. You are incredibly powerful.” You leant into Kanjuro’s touch, letting him twirl your hair around his finger. You loved these little moments with him. It was a fun little secret among all the cruel ones in your life. Stealing kisses from each other when no one was looking, hands rampant on one another when the room was scare of people...
You leant closer to him, eyes half lidded. “Oh, Kurozumi Kanjuro...” You felt his free hand hold your shoulder, drawing you closer to him. You failed to bite back your smile, giving him a dally glance. “Do you really think i’m powerful?” You spoke fondly, never breaking eye contact with the man.
“I, for one, find you terrifying.” Kanjuro leered as you placed your fingers under his chin, your siren eyes shut as your lips met his. His painted lips moved against yours, the texture of his lipstick smearing across yours. Like wild paint being flung at a blank canvas, it smeared and smudged, replicating the look of a Picasso art piece gone wrong. Yet, the kiss was beautiful in its own way. Just like your romance with Kanjuro.
Even if you two were murderous fiends, deceiving others for the sake of your own vendettas, you could still muster the will to love. Perhaps it was your mission that brought you two together, or your unnatural levels of apathy, or even your shared thirst for blood. Regardless, you two melted into one another.
You drew away from the kiss, taking in a few gasps of air. “I’ll put on a terrifying performance tonight, just for you...” You murmured under your breath before diving in once more, further smearing Kanjuro’s lipstick. Your lips were stained with the scarlet colour, throwing off your colour coordinated outfit. Oh, how bold that lipstick shade was against the light hues you wore.
A knock brushed against your sliding door. “Y/n, Kanjuro!” Kikunojo’s voice was muffled from outside of your room. “Are you two ready?” She asked, slowly sliding the door open.
You shoved Kanjuro off of you, in a fit of fear. No way could anyone catch you two like this...! It was a secret, your secret! Sure, maybe not your worst one but still...! Your ego relied on this secrecy.
“Y/n, Kanju- Oh.” She looked at the two of you, her eyes brimming with curiosity. Kanjuro was flat on the floor, groaning in pain. And you... your mouth was covered in a shade that matched Kanjuro’s lips. Kikunojo couldn’t help but giggle, immediately catching on to what was going on. I mean, only a moron wouldn’t piece all this evidence together. You two were totally a thing, and Kiku knew that.
“My, i had no clue things were that way.” She laughed softly, hiding her grin behind her hand. The moment you opened your mouth to retaliate to her comment, she completely cut you off, quickly blabbing to cover up any arguments you had. “Y/n, clean up your face and meet us in the dining room, deary. Come on, Kanjuro!”
You watched your boyfriend leave with Kikunojo, leaving you behind. You stood by yourself, once again staring at yourself in the mirror.
Maybe you wouldn’t feel bad about hurting those scabbards anymore, after such humiliation.
