This scene we all know, where Sanji kicks Luffy, speaks to me in a very deep way.
While of course, Sanji's goal was to hopefully push Luffy away, and put his life as a member of the Straw Hat crew behind him for good, this scene particularly shows us just how much hatred Sanji held towards himself. His captain knows this, hence his quote:
"No matter how much you kick me, you're the one getting hurt."
The way he speaks to Luffy, slowly more agitated with his kicks and facial expressions, tells us something important.
"Go away." "Get out of my sight." "Get out of my face, now!"
Can easily be classified as Sanji talking to himself and the shame he felt, placed back into the core of his trauma, surrounded by his abusers.
Sanji was kicking himself.
If I counted correctly, Sani kicks Luffy a total of 61 times, including his final blow, which is not shown in this clip. I've written extensively before about how well Oda writes about trauma.
Sanji was drowning in shame and trauma over being surrounded by his abusers again, and he tried to walk the path alone, convincing himself it was the right thing to do. To sacrifice himself.
Luffy did not fall for it, and accepted every blow, emphasizing how Sani truly hated himself, as victims of abuse regularly do.
This scene is immensely powerful for that reason.
