This was a really standard episode.
With some really pretty usage of conpositing in some places, Hosoda's direction was pretty alright in this episode.
My favorite portion of the episode is ofc when X-Drake and Hawkins were in awe of Stealth Black Sanji and the short scuffle between them.
In the 2nd half near the end, the flashback to Luffy vs Kaido was not only unnecessarily long but also felt very bizarre and out of place. Well anyways it probably wasn't a high priority episode anyways.
I'm avoiding next week's episode preview like it's a manga chapter spoiler because apparently it shows a lot of the fight and it also looks insane from what I can hear. It's gonna be difficult not to overcome the temptation of giving it a peak.
