Of course the epic tell-off was nice, Sanji managed to deliver all the fire of an actual ass-kicking with his words this chapter, and it was dopeness. From how meticulously worded every part of was, to even him telling Luffy not to let themselves be "indebted to failure", it was all just too great to handle. Unfortunately I feel like it may be just that, a substitute for Sanji ACTUALLY kicking their asses. I'm fine with it though, it was that good.

Now while I understand Sanji still wanting to help his big sister that clearly loves him when no other Vinsmoke does, and Luffy wanting to help the girl that saved his life, it was a bad look on Reiju. We literally just saw her be the only one to wrestle one of the Straw Hats away from a Sweet Commander, with said Commander even noting how particularly dangerous Reiju was, and one chapter later she needs to be saved. Ichiji calling her weak was just insult to injury, as she was the only one shown to struggle in any kind of way once they got out. On another note, that was a nice little insight in the the brotherly-sisterly relationships. Niji clearly cares about Reiju at least a little, while Ichiji stood out more this chapter as the dickish big brother. Even if he may not be the oldest/strongest sibling, it would seem he behaves as though he is.

As far as the escape plan, we all should have instantly known it wouldn't go down like that once we saw how vague they left it. Caesar flies away with Bege's normal body in tow......then what? Also, we should have known that it wouldnt end with the Vinsmokes just being left behind as sacrifices, both their past and future have way too many grey areas. I don't know exactly how things will proceed from here, as Luffy/Sanji + The Power Rangers still isn't enough force for this all to be feasible. My bets are still on some kind of wild card, be it the Tamatebeko going off, or a large source of outside help.
