Whatever gripes I might have with the conclusion of this arc and Yamato's existence, tears were shed during this chapter. I've been religiously reading OP for the past 7 and almost half years(I watched the anime for a few years prior to that), Wano's been over half of this experience, but not only that -- Momo and Kin'emon, the alliance with Law, they've been there for more. I remember walking home from school with my friend constantly discussing it among other animes and mangas, but mostly One Piece. I still vividly remember the day he told me about the crew reaching Dressrosa in the manga, finding out about Doflamingo's DF for the first time...One Piece has helped me go through a lot. I automatically associate it with some of the best times of my life(as of yet). This is the truly an end of an era, and hopefully the beginning of something amazing, even if this the final step. I can't imagine what will happen when One Piece actually ends. But I'll save some words for that day.
