As I said, I doubt anyone predicted this one.
Sort of an accidental pattern that we often have a music sequence among the December offerings.
I really enjoyed this one personally and it was hard deciding if I should do this or the Beasts pirates sequences for the finale. Lupa's design is both Disco/Funk themed with a bit of Asian as well. Apoo seems to have both of these things as part of his crew's aesthetic so I wanted to stay true to that.
From here I have some ideas for Crew Swap but definitely we will have to pivot to a new approach as there just aren't enough main arcs to do. And even with them, Egghead and Elbaf are kind of unconventional in the crews we would use. I have a few ideas including doing a character besides Luffy, or doing a cleanup round for the arcs we didn't do.
