What The Heck’s Going On With Queen and Sanji?!?

One Piece Chapter 1028 Review/Recap

We are getting down to the wire with the fight for Wano’s future, people! Onigashima’s minutes away from falling on the Flower Capital. If Luffy can’t stop Kaido before then, the Flower Capital’s doomed. If Momonosuke can’t hold it up, it’s doomed. Meanwhile, the last of Kaido’s elite, King and Queen, are tooth and nail with Zoro and Sanji. However, something weird’s going on with Sanji right now. Also, Queen does…something that I can’t really explain.

Recap

As CP-0 monitors the fight, they get orders from Rob Lucci himself. If Kaido goes down, they’ve got a fleet coming in to annex Wano and capture Robin. Below the island, Momo struggles to get it to stop moving while Yamato goes to take care of the bombs. Nonetheless, Momo refuses to give up.

Inside dome on the live floor, Sanji and Queen continue to slug it out, with Sanji still refusing to use his Raid Suit. However, he keeps thinking something’s wrong with him. Then Queen…just, just see for yourself.

Thanks to Queen’s own stupidity, Sanji breaks free. And Sanji’s body suddenly heals all on its own. As a result, he thinks he’s starting to turn into a monster like his brothers. Even more proof’s shown when Queen slices at him with his sword, and it breaks!!!

Review

Firstly, regarding the World Government’s decision to annex Wano:

I couldn’t help it. Do they really think Wano will just let another group of outsiders march in and take control? Even if they try to, the Samurai (and Momonosuke) will probably tell them “Get the $@/& out of our land.” It won’t happen, but it will be fun to watch. Sure hope the Alliance can stick it to CP-0 before they get Robin, though.

As for Sanji, this chapter confirmed our suspicions. Through some unknown factor, Sanji’s awakened the physical modifications that his siblings possess. Between that, his super tough body, and the Raid Suit, he may end up becoming unstoppable. However, I don’t think he’ll end up a sociopath like his brothers. He has his crew mates to keep him from turning into one. Hopefully, by the end of this, he’ll accept this stuff as part of who he is, and make it his own.

This chapter was pretty awesome from my perspective. I loved the reveal of Yamato’s beast form; very Japanese-esque. I can’t wait for the next chapter in two weeks time.

There’s only five minutes left before Onigashima hits the Flower Capital. But the Alliance is on the verge of winning. GO ALLIANCE!!

I Give “Brachiosaur-Hiss” a 3/5
