During One Piece Day 2023 , Nagamine spoke about Mayumi Tanaka's performance voicing Luffy in this special scene. According to the director, Tanaka exceeded his expectations, delivering a perfect laugh for his character's new form.

 “I thought it would be difficult to do the funny parts, so I tried to tone down the laughter a bit. But Ms. Mayumi Tanaka went above and beyond and gave us an incredible laugh from Gear 5. And the final result exceeded expectations.”

Furthermore, he also says that he planned an innovative dubbing for this moment because the Gear 5 will be a transformation outside the norm.

 “There’s this part about ‘Liberation,’ which is something like breaking free from the laws and physics of the world. So, our goal is to push the boundaries with innovative dubbing.”

Synopsis:

The story revolves around Monkey D. Luffy, a young man who gained a body made of rubber after eating the magical Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber Fruit). Inspired by his childhood idol, the powerful pirate Shanks the Red-Haired, Luffy decided to become a pirate and sail the seas to find the mythical treasure, the One Piece, and proclaim himself the King of the Pirates.
