Well episode 244 had good and bad moments. The bad moments that disappointed me were the overusage of flashback material when Lucci has been drawing his conclusions. At first it was great seeing rough images of Tom and Iceburg working on the Rocket Man etc but when the flashback reached the point that you clearly could make Cocoro out it was too much for me. It was giving too much away at a time where it wasn´t needed. The Franky/Cutty Flam revelation already was enough. And speaking of it, the scene where he came to Galley-La shouldn´t have been there too, plus it ruined a DON scene. In the manga Lucci draws his conslusion builts the tension up and you still are cluesless until you see Franky´s face and name. That was a DON scene.
But in the anime seeing Flam´s legs, arms and shirt already gave it away so it didn´t make an impact anymore when the true identity got revealed. And I wouldn´t have revealed it with the flashback anyway. Actually it would have been much better to just see Franky´s face laughing at Usopp while we hear Lucci´s voice in the background makeing that revelation. To me this is better storytelling then how Toei did it here. But then again it´s just me.
However what they did good was the pulse thing and special props for the entire scene how the protagonists were heading for Iceburgs room. That was done very well IMO and couldn´t have been done better. Even the additional footage where Nami and Chopper began to run slower so that Zoro heads forward first was funny and not out of character. It is really strange how Toei can sometimes include their own stuff that extends the manga story without ruin it like here while in other situations they totally ruin everything like they did with the flashbacks.
On a side note, the entire scene with Franky watching and approaching Going Merry and Usopp was also done very well. Truly amazing this two sides of Toei´s creative freedom.
