1* EvenBetterSequel: Fans consider ''Film Z'' an overall better movie than ''Strong World'', thanks to superior action scenes, a more focused plot, better use of supporting characters from the main series (instead of keeping things self-contained to only the Straw Hats) and generally higher stakes.
2* {{Fanon}}: While the film never states which Warlord took Zephyr’s arm, it’s generally accepted by fans that it was Edward Weevil, given that Zephyr founded the Neo Marines during the timeskip, and of the three Warlords minted during the timeskip, neither Buggy nor Law was strong enough or erratic enough to be the culprit.
3* MagnificentBastard: "Black Arm" Zephyr, later going by the name Z, was formerly an Admiral, and later instructor, for the Marines. Growing disillusioned with the World Government after the pirate who slaughtered his crew became a Warlord, Z created the Neo Marines, a faction of former Marines with the goal of destroying the New World in order to end the Golden Age of piracy. Z launches an attack on a Marine base to steal the explosive Dyna Stones, evading Admiral Kizaru by exploding one, and begins destroying the Endpoints that seal magma within the New World. After defeating Luffy twice, Z patiently waits at the final Endpoint to have one final match with Luffy, [[VillainRespect praising Luffy for his courage]]. Upon being defeated, Z buys time for both his subordinates and the Straw Hats to escape the Marines, [[RedemptionEqualsDeath sacrificing his life]] while giving one final lesson to his former students.
