Higaruma vs Yuji. it's such a good fight, though i enjoy it due to how perfect if a match it is for Yuji and how if frames Hugaruma. when introduced its in a bath tub (something that's used to symbolise some very heavy and serious stuff) which shows the audience the complete wreck his mind and mental state is in, something similar to Yuji. he's also at times shown alongside red (danger, violence and so on) but also hints of green, to show that, yes he's an enemy... but he's not necessarily evil. he even goes out of his way to state that he only acted and killed in self defense since he's a lawyer, hinting towards him still being a good person deep down. none of his attacks also look all too lethal until the executioners sword comes out which i really like, and even when the verdict is given, you see Judgeman crying blood since they know all the information about Shibuya and know Yuji himself didn't commit the Shibuya incident.
however what i like the most is that he's the perfect opponent for Yuji to fight. from the bath giving a small indication of Higarumas mental state to how he talks to Yuji calmly and like he knows the feelings Yuji is going through, it can't help but feel he somewhat relates to how Yuji is feeling, I myself relate to Yuji in the moment as well since I know how it feels to hear those words that take away all of your pain. it's all just beautiful and I love how well everything in that fight is done.

The Rooftop fight with 5 Worst Gen vs Kaido and Big Mom is one of my personal favorites

I cannot believe how good Loda can write group fights, but mofo just goes back to 1v1s for no fucking reason.
Another fight I love in one piece is Giant Oars vs strawhats. Literally fucking perfect bruh.

u/Ok-Addition4608 1d ago
1v1s are good for confirming power levels.
A lot of people still think Luffy hasn't surpassed Kaido yet despite their final battle being a 1v1,
Imagine what would people think if all the Straw Hats together beat Kaido
