Zoro being protective and stressed out — a story in 3 screenshots

- Zoro drawing his sword and stepping closer to deflect more bullets after Vivi was shot:

- Zoro looking at Nami and wanting to join the climb to Drum Castle

- Zoro staring out the window, hating it to have stayed back, unable to help and not knowing what is going on:

That's the surprised but pleased face of a man. It's like he's thinking " so you did noticed my muscles!!".

And it's a nice parallel to the scene Zoro & Nami met on season 1 where the first thing he tells her is this:

Because of my last video, I've been thinking a lot about this moment, about Zoro's little step back when Nami sees them for the first time since the betrayal, and I wonder if it was something written in the script or if Mackenyu (or another person like the director or the writers during filming) came up with it on the spot. Because I really love it.

I mean, the others were there when Nami's betrayal takes place but Zoro doesn't see it, Luffy has to tell him what happened. So this is the first time they see each other since he directly hurt her with her own words. Since he used her own vulnerability against her just to get her to leave him alone.

I wish Oda sensei would draw Nami & Zoro giving the middle finger to the world at some colorspread.
