Overview

• Episode 1134 marks the first time Hanafuda is named in the anime as the Seven Warlord defeated by Ace, a detail absent from Eiichiro Oda’s original manga.
• Bartholomew Kuma is shown surrendering his memories to St. Saturn and becoming a mindless World Government cyborg in exchange for his daughter Bonney’s safety.
• Toei Animation takes creative liberties by adding Hanafuda’s name and explicit backstory in dialogue, drawing on Oda’s SBS volumes to enrich the narrative.
• The episode balances Kuma’s tragic past with nostalgia by featuring reactions from the former Seven Warlords, softening the emotional intensity of his flashback.
• Fans have responded enthusiastically to these revelations and are eager to see how they will influence the upcoming climax of the Egghead Island arc.
