Episode 488

"A Desperate Cry - Seconds of Valor that Change Destiny" is the 488th episode of One Piece.

Short Summary
The fight in Marineford still rages on, as Trafalgar Law arrives to rescue Luffy. Sengoku still fights Blackbeard, while Akainu fights the commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even though the Marines clearly won the war, they still fight, and while many die around Coby, the "voices" continue to fade away from his mind. For a few moments he bravely stops the war, and as he's about to be killed by Akainu, Shanks arrives, claiming that those "seconds of courage have changed the fate of the world."

Anime and Manga Differences
The following was done to stretch one chapter into 20 minutes of animation:
 * Coby's nightmares where heavily lengthened to include new scenes such as; Coby finding a necklace with a dead marine's family photo inside and some flashbacks with Luffy.
 * Scenes of pirates retreating were lengthened, to go with Coby's.
 * Sengoku and Garp's fight with Blackbeard was extended, including Garp fighting Jesus Burgess.
 * Akainu's fight with the Whitebeard commanders was shown, where in the Manga it had not been.
 * When Blackbeard shifted the seas, the tsunami saved the Heart Pirates from a naval bombardment and a longer scene of people escaping Sabaody Archipelago is shown.

Mistakes

 * Smoker is briefly seen with his Jutte intact, when in fact it was broken by Boa Hancock.
