Biggest cope I've seen lmao. All the filler you're thinking about is in the manga. The biggest problem is the awful padding. You're confusing canon jokes and dynamics with minutes of nothing happening.
One of the things i miss most about pre timeskip are the slice of life scenes with the crew. So yes, please some more of this kind of filler. Pre- Timeskip felt like we were taken on an adventure, post-timeskip feels like we are watchikg an adventure. I'm not saying post-timeskip ist bad, but pre-timeskip just elevated the found family parts of the show.
Yes. These calm scenes on the merry between Islands. The taking stock of their resources status or nexr steps.interactions between crewmembers. Robins addition and her interacting with the crew was awesome
I mean if you look at the manga, they’re doing some srs shit rn. Hopefully on Elbaf there will be more slice of life moments, but they haven’t had that for a while cause they’ve been too busy fighting governments lmao.
Its not filler, pre timeskip manga also had more slice of life. Personally really miss that too. It makes me like pre time skip maybe even more then post, altho post is on a different lvl
We're long overdue for some quality Straw hats "filler" I would love to see Sanji cooking more in the remake, interacting with each island's culture and cuisine, gathering ingredients for the trip. Or Chopper doctoring and studying before hanging out with Robin. Oh since you mentioned Zoro and Sanji, how about if they competed with each other on the ships chores? Could even expand on the crews interactions like Usopp and Franky inventing stuff together, thinking with unique technologies they find like Usopp's dials. Even for actual fillers, imagine all the crazy wacky stuff they could come up with different islands like they did with G8! Maybe I'm dreaming too big but that's what One Piece is about
Seriously yes, I started One Piece a couple of years ago and I was so surprised to not even have at least one panel per arc of sanji discovering and cooking some region specific food. Other examples do necessitate more investement time wise, for Chopper or Franky for example, but Sanji is crazy
Exactlyyy thank you, there isnt any more moments where sanji tries that super food hes been working on in the time skip, or ussop creating new devices, stuff like that are amazing, which is why i really love louge town arc
Or seeing more of Nami drawing her map of the world. Having some scenes of her just walking around observing, taking mental note of key parts of the island for her to mark on her map.
Fun fact(?): The sound effects from One Piece are not 20 years old, they are probably over 40 years old. They have been in use at least since the Dragon Ball anime, which came out in 1986. its probably even older since they made shows before Dragon Ball, but I don't know if they used the same library.
@@KeyleeTamirian yes some are really iconic for examples luffys stretchy sounds but others could really be modernized, metallic hits and explosions come to mind
I about a week ago recently finally starting climbing the mountain that is this series after being intimidated for so long by it and I'm currently reading the manga and in 150 chapters at the drum island arc with chopper and I'm curious are there any arcs or segments I should switch to the anime or just continue reading all the way to the end? a coworker told me wano but otherwise said I should just keep reading it, I cant help but feel I'm missing out but at the same time glad I'm not dealing with filler
@@Sanji_artic Yeah no clue where you got this idea from, The staff is pretty decent and they haven't even shown anything so you calling them incompetent is some weird delusion you convinced yourself of
This is the first video about the remake that actually covers all of my thoughts and worries, i pretty much agree with everything said here, though i do hope we see a few OSTs return here or there, or at least carry some motifs over to other songs.
WIT Studio better adapt the cover story arcs. If people didn't learn their lesson, the first time the cover stories were relevant to the series, IDK what to say.
Agreed on the music, it would be nice to see one of the original opening in each part they were originally in even if they have a new opening every episode after, I disagree about Tbc every episode though, generally that is annoying.
Yea, you know "Im going to be King of the Pirates" the music that plays when they say their dreams and destroy the barrel, and during almost all of the east blue saga. It would be such a shame if that beautiful track just doesnt play
The first op of the one piece should still be a version of We Are imo. Just because it's just that important for the shows identity. I don't think any other op can kick off the show and properly set up the kind of vibe that the audience needs to have going into this.
The author explicitly states that this remake needs not to be the same, but to be something new and fresh. Therefore, I think wit must make a new op to show that it's something different and worth watching
I feel like they should make the cover stories the eye-catches that appear before and after a commercial break, similar to how Attack on Titan used their eye-catches to provide extra detail about the world of the series.
@@theassortedhobbyist Eye catchers are usually only like a couple second though, I don't know how you would fit cover stories in them, unless you just make it an image.
For me the most important thing is to not go too fast. Like we need some shots where the wind is just blowing, sound of waves, sound of birds etc. Let us feel the environment.
Yeah that's literally the only thing wrong with One Pace imo, their view of "if it's not in the manga, it doesn't matter" is ridiculous as there are scenes that bridge things together properly. Like I had to show my friend a few really nice scenes (like the Zoro and Chopper one this video showed) or G8 of course. But I heard that they're making a separate video to watch if you want your One Pace experience to lead into G8 properly, and it seems like they're finally realizing not all filler is "bad filler" Bad filler is what One Piece has, where for some reason a scene of Luffy running can be up to 2 minutes for absolutely zero reason, reusing shots that happened like 10 seconds ago, and being borderline unwatchable without realizing how it's just there to pad for time. Good filler is stuff that actually has thought and work put into it, that also happens to be filler Nothing wrong with a nice wholesome scene of the Straw Hats just relaxing and sailing in a peaceful windy day.
I hadn't thought about it, but new VAs would become the new legends of a generation! The original cast still has the rest of the original anime to wrap up, and getting fresh blood into such an iconic series would do wonders!
I was kinda skeptical about it but you know what? you are completely right! this remake should have everything, nothing from toei's version, new voice actors, new sounds, new animation, pacing, everything, they should treat it as if it was never aniamted before.
i will be forever loyal to the manga, but i hope we will finally get a one piece anime that is easy to recommend to friends who dont know anything about one piece or are maybe not even anime fans. the live action is already pretty good at that right now, but if we get a one piece anime that is easily recommendable to newbies and anime veterans alike? ill be as happy as ill ever be❤️
@@Goku-fn3qd im not a purist, i just think the manga is the best version of the story! since its the most direct vision from oda as we're gonna get :) i sitll love the anime and the live action, and im pretty sure ill love the new anime as well
My friend, who claims to "not like Shonen in general" but has seen Naruto multiple times, says he's definitely going to watch a well paced one piece anime.
You honestly hit every single point on what I'd like to see them do with this adaptation lol. But I just want to say in reguards to the music in particular is on two songs: Firstly, when it comes to 'We are', I agree that I dont want it to be a big part of the anime, like I dont want it to be an OP but I still definitely think they should reference to it somewhere, a bit like how the live action snuck it into a part of its own original composition. As many have said before: "It's not One Piece without We are". Secondly: Bink's Sake. I know we are a long way off, but it is the one and only song I cant imagine, nor want a different version of. Its too iconic and perfect for me.
YOU FORGOT THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS: - Some GOOD fight coreography - Adapting the cover stories series (like Enel in the moon) as mini-arcs - Patching up concepts that have shifted too much with time in One Piece like fixing early bounties and giving some coloring when Haki is being used like after the timeskip (like Dragon holding Smoker) I agree with everything else though :)
I want them to really capitalize on the “vibe” of the show. The calm and adventurous music the light hearted and simple manga design. I want the show to have that light hearted happy adventurous feel. So new music would be huge. Also the filler is massive. They need to make this world feel alive. Give characters many moments together even if pacing takes a slight hit I don’t need them to rush and finish in east blue in 10 eps. I want them to go more into the dynamics of the crew. Many peoples favorite moments are the in between where the crew hangs out on the ship. My favorite thing about pre timeskip one piece was the little filler scenes that add so much. I don’t want to just go island to island I want the experience of hanging out with characters the straw hats and characters are the reason people watch the show. They also gotta capitalize on the beauty and nostalgia of the world. They really can’t have the world feel dead. Luckily from what we have seen so far they seem very focused on building a world but again to do that more than anything they need the filler. More of characters exploring islands insight to character interactions and dynamics crew mates enjoying them selves on the islands tons of scenery and more time spent on the ship if it’s done well
By far the best vid about one piece remake and what it needs, you touched on every single point i was thinking about the only part you missed is them actually using the correct colors for some characters, like mihawk having red eyes instead of yellow etc
What I would personally love is different character designs and colouring styles for each ark. I love how different arks vibe in different ways and i think that instead of just going for consistency through the entire serie, I would love to have something tailored. I kind of love the difference of style between east blue and egghead
Oda have his respect for wit studio animators and even encourage them to do the remake with their own perspective. But I think he said this because he has seen how OPLA turn out. Maybe he is now more open to how adaptation of his series get done as long as it doesn’t go astray from the original (manga). I personally expect more emphasizing in some dramatic scene from the re-make. Like, better execution for robin’s backstory and story of noland and calgarra.
Many people forget that the Daddy the Father Loguetown sequence is actually cannon. It was cut from the manga so the crew could get to the Grand line by chapter 100, but it was written by Oda. thats why Ussops goggles just kinda appear in the manga with no explanation in the middle of Loguetown.
Yeah I agree consistency and pacing is the key for the remake bc I personally don’t see The one piece topping some of toei high moments. Like this most recent episode just has amazing animation, pacing, and quality I mean it has been top tier but the key for the remake is consistency.
IMO. 1. Toei has been adapting One Piece for years, comparing it to recent adaptation is not fair. What about arcs before that? 2. when it happens both studio adapted the same chapter, as long as it's a well thought out of adaptation, idc which one is better, it's just subjective atp.
One thing I’m also hoping to see is possibly an animation team expansion if the show does really well. I hope to see maybe Wit bringing more of their staff onto the project later down the road for some of the more intensive animation scenes in Wano and WCI to try and make it as high-level as they can get.
12:38 HUGE AGREE. the toei crewmate leitmorifs and themes are bangers and basically give one piece a specific musical identity that i struggle to hear from any other anime. Even if the composer is different, i BEG they keep the core tunes the same because they're just so perfect
I will always always always want more We Are! I don’t care how many versions of it we’ve already got, it’s so completely and utterly perfect for One Piece. I almost can’t even imagine OP without WE ARE! in it.
I 100% agree about the pacing you're talking about. Which is why I'm glad Toei is allowing another studio to do the remake. That's where a lot of remakes of older series that Toei Animation have done such as Sailor Moon and Saint Seiya fail at. It's the pacing of how much they should add in between panels. The Sailor Moon remake is almost panel for panel from the manga and the manga was created about the same time the original series started and the author had to rush some of the character development to get to the next chapter so she can stay ahead of the anime. The remake didn't add character moments like the original 90s anime did. As a result, the remake didn't feel like as emotional as the original because we spent less time with character interactions that made the original series special. Which is what I'm hoping for in the One Piece remake is to have better pacing that doesn't drag, nor does it rush.
6:00 I am SO glad, you mentioned the moment between Zoro and Chopper. It is an important scene not only for understanding Zoro's perspective of a team a little better, but also for Chopper to realize what kind of group he joined while also giving him room to figure out for himself what being a pirate means for him. Zoro is supposed to fill the role of a dad/ older, tough brother for Chopper and this is one of not too many moments showing it. It honestly belongs in the remake, but I really doubt, they'll add it.
I hate that when I try to recommend one piece to anyone that knows anything they immediately respond “1000 episodes and bad pacing” and I just have to be like “WELP you got me there but the manga is amazing” this remake will remove all of that. I’ll be able to say “just watch the first arc and if you don’t like it stop” instead of “reach episode 34 aka Arlong park and if you don’t like it by then well at least you tried”
Pacing is really a scene by scene thing. Some types of scenes need slower pacing, some need faster. The best thing about this remake, is that since they have over two decades of material to work with and no fears of ‘catching up’, every scene can be hand crafted to be the best version of itself, with no need (besides episode length/commercial breaks and season finales) to worry about how it will affect how fast the story moves
I agree with everything you say here, however that music man, it just gives me the chills everytime i hear it, especially we are and we go. They just cannot get rid of them. I personally think they should make new music and also use the original one piece music... Also btw, that promotion of ur discord at the end, is probably the most convincing one i have ever seen idk why. I actually joined. keep up the good work...
I'm giving a standing ovation right now. I'm begging and hoping all this comes to fruition. I've dropped the anime at a certain point and have moved on to the manga, but it's nice to hear that toei is popping off as of late. What toei did with early OP will forever remain a special place in my heart. Give us that grand, triumphant, and magical feeling of OP again
There is NO way they're recasting Tanaka as Luffy. There's a reason they put her speaking a line as Luffy in the trailer. Many other straw hats will probably get replaced though, but I doubt they all will.
It would be cool to see the things that Oda considers canon (like the Ace Story) included in the anime somehow, like as a way to get us more connected to Ace before Marineford we could have Ace telling Luffy his adventures (of first starting out) in Alabasta, also some of the details that Oda includes in his SBS's should be included in the anime (at least the important things).
Fair points and opinions, I agree with everything you said, i hope the Remake lives up to your hopes and expectations and then some. Personally, i just hope they adapt the Cover Stories.
Totally agree with your point regarding filler. Those mundane scenes on the ship were some of the best parts in the series. It adds so much more to their bonds. One other example of this is the episode where Brook newly joined the crew. The whole episode was about him trying to figure out his relevance in the crew. The ending where he played Bink's Sake was so beautiful.
As i'm rewatching early episodes, some of "Fillers" are godsent. Like scene at Nami's house where Nami "talks" to Bellmere before setting on journey with Luffy, or scene in "Roger's" Bar, with the bartender seeing Roger in Luffy.
Maybe the coverstories could be their one own little episode each season! Here's an example of an idea: The season of Enies Lobby could end with the death of Merry. But then the first episode of the next season could be dedicated entirely for adapting the CP9 agents coverstory. How they survived, gained money to treat Lucci and how they practically leave WG, but promise to come back some day. Setting up the whole CP0 for the future. Then we go back to post-Enies Lobby arc. Or they make post Ennies Lobby before this and the season ends with Franky joining, Sunnys reveal and Straw Hats leaving Water Seven. But the same set up still.
🎉Whenever you brought up the cover pages beyond the cover stories, my immediate thought was eye-catches. One Piece's og adaptation already has eye-catches, and those cover pages would be perfect for those in WIT Piece. Cool to see we're on the same wavelength.
if the characters aren't even a bit tanned like in early one piece then idk. Makes sense for me at least that people who spend days on a ship with the burning sun light would be at least a little bit tanned at least.
As someone who has been watching OP for about 15 years (and eventually started reading the manga) let me tell you there are 3 changes that need to be made VERY CAREFULLY: 1.- The soundtrack (it has to be remastered, not entirely changed, since is WAY too iconic, but old) 2.- The voices (If they are changed, it will open an eternal debate, no doubt) 3.- The openings (Same as the soundtrack) Wit's version of OP shouldn't be a declaration of war between the NEW and the OLD
Very well make video! I am so hyped for this. I am also hopeful that the art style will match the color concepts, but colored better. Watching the Ranma 1/2 remake on Netflix is giving me hope that a lot more of these remakes of older anime will take this hyper colorized soft and fun style, a lot like much of the source material. If they can learn from these other remakes I think they could make something truly special that can become the adaption One Piece deserves.
Honestly seeing them refer to props and draw frames while looking at the manga pages made me even more excited. I love how detailed all the concept art is. I love that you can tell Zoro and Sanji have different builds and body types in the character sheets. And while they should maybe saturate everything a little more, I love the marker look. It looks just like the color spreads. I hope they keep it. I also hope they keep some of the filler stuff the anime did that was actually stuff that Oda wanted to put in but then cut it for time. Like Usopp’s shooting competition and Sanji’s cooking competition from Loguetown. I would also love if they added in some easter eggs that we now know with hindsight, Things like a Marine report about the dreaded Kid pirates or a newspaper article mentioning "the Surgeon of Death Tearing Up the North Blue." Basically what the Live-Action did. I also hope they fix a lot of the color mistakes that the anime made, like Robin's eye color and _Merry’s_ head being brown and not white. And please bring back the orange color for Kuma's jacket. But the production team is crazy! The _Attack on Titan_ director, the director of _Jujutsu Kaisen_ as your assistant director, the character designer and chief animation director of _Attack on Titan_ and _Spy x Family,_ the action animators for the remake worked on _Boruto_ and _My Hero Academia,_ the writer of _Ranking of Kings,_ and the remakes’s animation producer also worked on _Attak on Titan!_ What‽ The board member of WIT in the video said he first heard about the project 4-5 years ago which means they’ve been discussing doing a remake since Wano.
11:48 while i personally love the sound design for one piece, i do get where you are coming from. It isnt on par with a lot of modern anime, to me it works with one piece but i would love to hear new sound design in the new series to get a new feel.
You know… people could watch One Piece one arc at a time. Start with East Blue and decide from there. I feel like too many see the show not as individual stories but the whole.
This video is spot on in so many ways! Especially regarding the "filler" stuff. Things like the crew just hanging out and doing menial tasks like fishing or washing dishes is one of those things that was essential in grounding the interrelationships of the crew! It's a necessary evil since Oda has to finish someday but I really miss these moments in the current story. Perhaps that's why Franky always felt a bit weird to me as a crewmate. Before we ever truly got to know who he was in relation to the crew, beyond his formal role as a shipwright, Brook was already being introduced. If I have to add one thing, I think everyone is getting ahead of themselves regarding the art of the finished product. It's very common for concept art, especially early concept art, to have a more handpainted look. Thus while it may not be as saturated as Toei, I sincerely doubt that the more washed out handpainted aesthetic will persist. I mean who knows, but I think everyone is being a bit hasty in assuming it will be the same.
I usually get annoyed when i see things getting remakes, but this im excited for. Toei did a great job adapting the manga, but theres so many places they could have improved, so many story beats they could have stayed true to but didnt, so much material they could have used instead of adding filler but didnt. Ive been reading the manga after catching up to the anime, and i keep finding myself wanting to rewatch certain parts (like dressrosa) but i know the pacing will ruin the excitement for me. Even when i was bindging the anime i was fast forwarding through recaps and long ass reaction shots, skipping half episodes cuz it was all recap. So something new is so exciting. I cant wait to reexperience this story again through a new teams eyes.
I am so looking forward to this Remake. I have been following this story for over half my life now, first watching the weekly episodes, later reading the manga. I am now even studying to become part of this industry myself. I don't expect it to be perfect, but i hope that it brings a new life into the old arks (and ofc fixes the issues that occurred due to the weekly schedule within the newer arks) and simultaneously invites new people to experience this masterclass of storytelling
At last someone Talking about the "good" filler elements (in between character moments, welltomed reaction shots, flashbacks, events like the Arlong park walk, many instances in Wano where the rushed Manga is elaborated a bit more making it more epic..., especially expanding those rushed portions in manga by Oda sensei due to deadlines like Wano ending etc...) Also, extra additional details using SBS, Oda's clarifications and also "good" filler based on Oda sensei's extra info to the animation team... Which Toei also used to do by providing anime only "cannon" details (occasionally). Of course the"bad" filler elements which r just unnecessarily dragged out stuff is not needed like too many reaction shots, unnecessarily dragged out, repetitive flashbacks etc.., which affects the pacing. Cover stories is something they can adapt which will a golden opportunity for WIT to differentiate themselves from Toei. Also, haki consistency and visualization post time skip... Whether something is advanced Conqueror's haki or advanced Armament or base Armament haki. I'm not someone who wants to see haki coating pretimeskip, as we r seeing from Luffy's eyes and we don't see it. But there also, they can hint haki wherever Oda sensei left things open-ended for better consistency. -Recasting VAs is also a practical idea... The OG cast needs rest... as they are also human. It would be fun to that the OG cast play the "fake strawhats" in Sabaody by putting their unique spin on it... Which is easy for them as it'll only be as cameos... 😂😂
Dude, your idea for the cover pages/color spreads is literally so fucking good that I hope it becomes real. I always LOVE whenever Toei adapts those into the openings because they just feel so One Piece, but they have done it so few times that I really wish it could be done more.
I think the only issue is that whoever watches the WIT version will probably never experience the emotion, amazing soundtrack or magnitude of TOEI one piece as it released... I don't even see a point in them reanimating Wano+ tbh
I also don't know how they will capture one piece, will they be able to make it as fun and lighthearted as TOEI did? Or will the style of the show change? I mean it doesn't have to be the same, One Piece Live Action does not have the vibe of the anime and it still works, but I think even more so than shows like DBZ, DBZ Kai, FMA, FMAB, people will only watch 1 or the other, I only watched DBZ and FMAB, but One Piece while I will watch the remake and the original, I kind of already know what it's gonna be like with some people not having the same experience, or never getting to understand how good the version the other people watched was like, I think DBZ and FMAB are my preferred 2 and I wish other people who watched Kai could get to experience some stuff that isn't the same as it was in DBZ, or people who watched FMA or og HxH could experience HxH 2011 or FMAB and how good it is, but a lot of people won't want to revisit what they have already seen.
The thing I will be basing my opinion on the new version on will be the comedic timing. The jokes in pre timeskip one piece are sooo good and sooo well timed. Toei pacing is for sure a big problem, but comedic timing was actually very good! The new version will surely be more fast paced and beautiful, but for example Wano was also faster and more beautiful, but not really funny (or not as funny as a lot of pre time skip (think of for example jaya or the start of thriller bark))! I just hope they will do it justice. I really don't know whether the producer will be able to do the humor justice. I would like for the new One Piece to feel more like G8 and less like Wano 🤷♀
Thank you for talking about this topic!! I really enjoyed the way you drove your points along with the visuals and everything comparing the different adaptations, it made me realize just how different this remake already feels from them just from the concepts we've seen. I love that you mentioned that "romantic" nostalgic feeling the east blue saga has, that's the exact feeling I want from this remake and I absolutely agree that a new soundtrack would make a huge difference. Honestly I don't know if it's even possible but best case scenario to me would be getting new arrangements of some of toei's soundtrack in juuuust the right moments. My only issue with the remake is really that they announced it so early, it's gonna be hard to wait for it to come out...
Not really, since FMA is almost entirely filler they took the core of the show and did something almost entirely different and original with it, meanwhile FMA:brotherhood is a pretty good accurate adaptation of the Manga.
@@MrGalRoz The original fma was adapting the manga for alot of it, it was until it nearly caught up with the manga then to keep the pacing and not to make filler eps they decided to stray away from the manga and add their own stuff to the end technically it isnt filler its just anime canon
The people who don't understand the point of One Piece remake are probably the same people who has no idea that the original HxH's and JJBA's original adaptations started at the same decade as when One Piece first release. Probably never knew they existed too.
Pont to add around 1:30, the content has been adapted several times, Toei themselves have remade East blue 4 seperate times, alabasta is a whole 90 minute movie released in 2007, ARLONG park got remade in 2012 along with another East blue adaptation and Skypeia got remade in like 2014.
I hope Wit Studio can get the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure sound designer to work on the One Piece remake, unless he's employed not contracted by David Productions. Because where DavidPro JJBA might be admittedly lacking in animation, Yasumasa Koyama more than makes up for it in sound design, the sound of “The World - Time Stop” is iconic, “King Crimson - Time Erasure” is frightening, the way “C-Moon” intimidatingly walks, the way Enrico Pucci and “Made in Heaven” zip around. The interacting sounds of Bruno Bucciarati's “Sticky Fingers” making long-winding zippers while far away underwater as the POV is near Secco's “Oasis” which liquefied the ground to water, and in the same fight Secco spits the water out of range to deliquefy it back to stone shards and rain back down, which bombarded Bruno underwater. And also “Stone Free” generating a möbius strip on Jolyne's body to prevent “C-Moon” from inverting her body makes a repetitive noise ‘pretty’ and not ‘irritating. That is the man who should sound design on One Piece, Yasumasa Koyama (小山 恭正). I believe One Piece's powers is perfect for him.
well one thing that i'd like is to add more on the first arcs since we know where the story is going like in loguetown there's a person that looks like sabo and it makes sense since dragon is also there so it would be cool if loguetown in the new anime had a person that looked like sabo or how we already know how every yonko is so the silhouettes are more accurate idk but honestly one of the things i'd like the most is stuff that is canon but isn't really part of the manga to be added to the adaptation like the new ryuma's one shot, it would make the world feel even more alive let me know what you think
Great video! Though I kind of disagree with changing Toei's sound effects for as long as the Toei anime lasts. To me they're not abhorrent, just old fashioned. They're iconic and feel like a trademark of the show. I like the constant reminder that this legendary show has been streaming for so long. Though I agree that new sound design is perfectly logical for the WIT remake, and I also agree with literally everything else you mentioned. Love the idea of including those manga spreads in the remake especially, such a good idea!
i think what the remake would be fantastic to match the more advanced fight scenes of the latest arcs. old once piece fight scenes looks grounded and characters seems weak compared to what they are now today. so tweaking their old fight scenes would make things more consistent.
Checked on your channel a few hours ago to watch your 1015, Megumi Ishitani, video and saw your last upload was 3 MONTHS ago! I was worried you'd taken some time off from your channel but you took NO time to tell me otherwise, and with half an hour of one piece no less. Love your channel and videos!
The sound effects in One Piece are much older than just 20 years or even 40 years, some sound effects that are used can date back as far as the 1977 Star Wars movie.
1) kind of glad you pointed that with one piece good pacing =\= fast pacing. i"m always mad that a lot of people think the early episodes of one piece (or other shows of that era like hunter x hunter 1999) are unwatchable because of a slower pacing. a lot of times in one piece, espielly after the timeskip, the anime gets noticablly worse because of it's pacing but it wasn't always that way. i just struggle to believe a seasonal show like one piece reboot that also needs to compete with all new anime as well as it's original getting the 150 episodes minimum that it needs just to get to the parts that actually need fixing in the original 2) original episode fillers absoulutley deserve the reputation they have, but if also think they are underrated in terms of conributing to their franchise. durring the big 3 era people obssed over the most random characters, and that was mostly because the shows length allowed so mant characters. but it was also because filler arcs gave space for a lot characters like most of konoha 11 and the soul society mini arcs when their role in the main story shrank. i think if modern anime like jujutsu kaisen or demon slayer had them it would make their extended cast much more popular 3) agree, the va are classics and each of them is talented, but they have been casted 25 years ago. the aging and the fact that they performed the same lines for years and years is felt, the franchise needs new blood. one piece is not one piece without muyumi tanaka and the gang, and any new one piece game without them is a sin, but as long as the main series keeps them i will be happy 4) totaly agree about the sound design, i like one piece's consistency but there's no reason to not update anything 5) i feel like the ideal way to use music is the botw aproach, give the series it's own identity with it's own music instead of a milion covers of old songs for fanservice, but the new composers could hide tiny refernces to old songs in the music for diehard fans. 6) something about the character designs of the new series feels kind of rigid and lifeless, i"m not sure how to put it into words. i love when one piece does a radical change of the character designs like wano, egghead and movies, but something about the new designs doesn't work for me. oda's pre timeskip designs are very dynamic and there's none of it in the concept art in my opinion. both aot and psycho pass have good designs, but they are not known for expresive characters. something like Nozaki Atsuko work on wit's ousama ranking would fit east blue much more in my opinion 7) i"m afraid toei's one piece will get worse with the wit reboot. both studio's rely on freelancers to function, so the talent pool of animators passionate enough about one piece to work on it will be shared between both productions. wit's seasonal nature would be hurt less 8) cover stories not being adapted to this day is a travesty. jump series in genral underuse color pages and spreads. 9) i just struggle to imagine the reamke adapting the content that needs a remake the most. we are either never going to see wit dressrosa or it's going to have promised neverland 2 pacing. wit never adapted more than 3 seasons of single show. unlike a studio like bones that is known for longer adaptations like mha or bungou stray dogs, i don't trust them to commit to such a long production even on the best terms another debate about modern one piece that i see a lot but isn't disscussed about in the remake the modern toei auras. a lot of people hate them because "one piece isn't dragon ball" but i think that from wano onwards they feel awsome and deserved. the strong trio are not just some pirates, they are a yonko and his wings and they should feel powerful. i feel that for early one piece when the strawhats are just some guys auras would feel weird
I’ve been a huge fan of the One Piece manga since I got caught up in 2018. I have re-read the entirety of it two more times since then. I love One Piece more than any other animanga property in existence. That said, even as early as Baratie, the pacing is UNWATCHABLY slow. It’s ridiculous. The fight with Don Kreig should not have taken 4 fucking episodes. The pacing of the Toei anime is complete garbage basically from the beginning, and only gets worse as it goes on.
I totally agree with good pacing =\= fast pacing. Ive had a lot of trouble engaging with some other animes because they dont allow themselves the time to develop chacracters/audience relationship. They feel like rushing to reach the end of it. Sometimes even slow pacing is better than fast pacing. If you can make smooth cinematic transitions, like taking the time to show some shots of the sea and people hanging on a town but done good, that is something I much prefer than just skipping that. A problem with the toei pacing though is that it does this things badly and in tye climax of arcs sometimes. And im thinking of the onigashima part of wano here. It was so hard to watch even when it was the climax of the arc. I was so happy when i caught up and switched to the manga right before gear 5. Anyways, im so happy this remake is coming and also have my hopes up.
@@maximillion322 100% agree with you. I stopped watching the anime during dressrosa (for obvious reasons) and have since read the manga multiple times. I watched One Pace with my partner back when they still hadn't finished Baratie, and it was painful to get through. I think people underestimate how much unnecessary padding there was even as early as Baratie. You really notice it when going from One Pace to One Piece.
@@maximillion322honestly the only one piece arc that I love to re-watch over and over again is water 7-enies lobby. I can’t stand how toei works the rest of it. I only start watch the anime again since megumi ishitani involved making the storyboard. Wano and egghead actually look good that made me happy.
I would like the remake to clearly stand out from the anime with a different sound design, music and seyuu, this is what HXH 2011, Dragon quest 2020 and Jojo Bizarre adventure did (parts 1 and 3 are basically remakes of the film Phantom Blood and OAVs of part 3 released between 1993 and 2000) and for the seyuu I prefer that it is a change of seyuu from the first episode instead of him announcing that he will play their character and then a hundred episodes later declaring that they were going to retire (or worse Again ) at the limit that he is present but that he plays older characters
People saying "why are they remaking this" CLEARLY haven't watched the Toei anime. IT SUCKS, they stretch 1 - 2 panels out for 20 minutes after 10 minutes of recapping the last 10 episodes. It has its good moments but for the most part it is a SLOG to get through.
You're obvi new here. I read and watched since 2003 and have never cared, just love the world of One Piece. Don't get how people can bitch and moan this much for more speed, One Piece isn't about that and it never has been. Even in the manga panels could be a bit dragged but loaded with information if you looked for it (pretty fat reveals). But 1-2 panels for 20 minutes? You're being absolutely ridiculous my man, and you know that.
13:30 AHAHAHA ! YOSHIHISA hirano the guy that did the beautiful music for hxh 2011 i totally agree , actually this was my first choice for one piece remake as well 😂 glad that you noticed it too❤
NGL, I've been watching OP for 5 years now. I have to take breaks after a few arcs for some mental release because this series gets really intense and destroys me emotionally
I think on the sound end, the reason they haven't changed it is because EXPECT it to be that way? It's like how Lightsabers in Star Wars have a specific sound or how Blasters in same said series sound. I get the feeling they don't want to jar or anger some fans by changing the sound effects.
@@erde9790 well there is a cheapness factor to be sure. I just don't think it's the ONLY reason. Remember it's one of the most popular series ever in the history of ever. Appeasing there fans a little bit is part of it. But yeah it's mostly a money thing.
@@mattheww9763 depends honestly, you have to pay foaly men/women for one and when you have to make episodes every week on a consistent rate that's alot of money. I'm not defending the practice, I'm just saying I get it. You gotta cut corners when you can...though you'd think with the money One Piece brings in they could afford better sound effects.
I've been good all my life not constantly bugging my friends to watch/read one piece. I realize it's tough to get into, and intimidatingly long. But i will strap them down and force them to watch The One Piece when it comes out. I will be the most annoying piece of shit about it until they either watch it, or hate me
i agree with you on most points you make in this video, except your take on the changing of the music. i think these pieces of music ARE indeed one piece in my eyes. essential to the feel of everything, goddamn! some of those songs make tear up just by listening
Lol what a timing, just 6 days after this video a remake of fishman island addressing all of the issues in this video gets announced. And I'm 99% sure people are going to like that, so Toei is going to keep doing remakes of older arcs with better pacing in-between current arcs
I would like to see a visualization of the original one piece intro animation We Are! where the animation starts with the original style but slowly transitions into the new WIT studio style along with what ever is needed. Just a thought tough!
16:18 those old eye-designs are charismatic & slayful for luffy & nami. i missed them so damn much man no wonder i fell out of love for the anime by the time of dressrosa back then (it's back to being my favorite anime since those modern episodes, but DUUUUUUDE, Water 7 & Impel Down changed my entire Fing life as it was).
@@erde9790 what do you mean? the animation is the best its ever been as of wano & egghead. i just prefer the designs in water 7 which is still technically a newer style for the series. i don't know too many peeps above my age who've really gotten into one piece compared with fellow zillennials & zoomers. their loss (/s). anyhoo it's all within the same show
I keep commenting lmao but I also want to say, the sudden increase in one piece animation quality is likely due to the fact that all the kids who grew up on One Piece are now rising up with the "New Gen Animators" of the Digital age of 2D animation. They're all joining to work on one piece with great passion, and we also are seeing a lot of fantastic key animators like Chris BM, ROAD SIGN, Akihiro Ota, Shinya Ohira, Vincent Chansard, Shuu Sugita, Bahi JD, Masami Mori and many many more- most of them seeming to have joined the One Piece production only in wano. The new animation director allows much more flexibility with visual style to "break" the art style at times, which leads to amazing animators like Akihiro Ota and Masami Mori to really shine. They also improved the colours, and the lineart. Anime Lineart looking "too clean" is an issue One Piece had for a really long time, and I think most noticably in Dressrosa, Whole Cake and Zou. it just looked yuck. Wano brought forth an age in One Piece of creative liberty, similar to the creative liberties that Mob Psycho 100 had, where the beauty and passion in art is appreciated through the show, most noticably to me, by Megumi Ishitani. One Piece has elevated itself from just a story that is animated, to Art in every way (except perhaps the sound design, lmao).
Hell Yeah, The Eye Catcher Idea sounds absolutely fantastic. If they end up doing that in some way, it'll definitely capture these great moments that are missed for those who don't read the manga!
One piece with a good pacing and a good animation is something all op haters are afraid of
they’d become fans
Pretty insane even with the adaptation Nerf op is successful
This is true, I hate OP because of the ass animation and bad pacing (+ bad sound design), give me all those in an anime and I'll be hooked for sure.
@@themanwithaplan1460but the bad sound design is just dbz sound effects by the same studio .
Fr
I believe that necessary element of cinematic "filler" storytelling is one of the reasons pre-timeskip feels so good
Pre-timeskip OP still holds strong up until Marineford in my opinion.
@@bssL25absolutely
Thriller Bark gets a bit iffy for me because of the art style but it's still very much watchable
ik right. The One Piece filler just makes the world feel so much bigger.
Biggest cope I've seen lmao. All the filler you're thinking about is in the manga. The biggest problem is the awful padding. You're confusing canon jokes and dynamics with minutes of nothing happening.
@@KingNothing1010You're confusing pacing with fillers
One of the things i miss most about pre timeskip are the slice of life scenes with the crew. So yes, please some more of this kind of filler. Pre- Timeskip felt like we were taken on an adventure, post-timeskip feels like we are watchikg an adventure. I'm not saying post-timeskip ist bad, but pre-timeskip just elevated the found family parts of the show.
Post is more Plot, WB, and villain focused
Yes. These calm scenes on the merry between Islands. The taking stock of their resources status or nexr steps.interactions between crewmembers. Robins addition and her interacting with the crew was awesome
I mean if you look at the manga, they’re doing some srs shit rn. Hopefully on Elbaf there will be more slice of life moments, but they haven’t had that for a while cause they’ve been too busy fighting governments lmao.
@@XanVicious Can relate FR
Its not filler, pre timeskip manga also had more slice of life. Personally really miss that too. It makes me like pre time skip maybe even more then post, altho post is on a different lvl
We're long overdue for some quality Straw hats "filler"
I would love to see Sanji cooking more in the remake, interacting with each island's culture and cuisine, gathering ingredients for the trip. Or Chopper doctoring and studying before hanging out with Robin. Oh since you mentioned Zoro and Sanji, how about if they competed with each other on the ships chores?
Could even expand on the crews interactions like Usopp and Franky inventing stuff together, thinking with unique technologies they find like Usopp's dials.
Even for actual fillers, imagine all the crazy wacky stuff they could come up with different islands like they did with G8!
Maybe I'm dreaming too big but that's what One Piece is about
Seriously yes, I started One Piece a couple of years ago and I was so surprised to not even have at least one panel per arc of sanji discovering and cooking some region specific food.
Other examples do necessitate more investement time wise, for Chopper or Franky for example, but Sanji is crazy
Exactlyyy thank you, there isnt any more moments where sanji tries that super food hes been working on in the time skip, or ussop creating new devices, stuff like that are amazing, which is why i really love louge town arc
That’s why G8 was so great. It had Sanji and Luffy cooking and Chopper being a doctor
Or seeing more of Nami drawing her map of the world. Having some scenes of her just walking around observing, taking mental note of key parts of the island for her to mark on her map.
The brook filler episode was still my favorite pre-timeskip episode. It was so charming and it really elevated brook as one of my favorites
Fun fact(?): The sound effects from One Piece are not 20 years old, they are probably over 40 years old. They have been in use at least since the Dragon Ball anime, which came out in 1986. its probably even older since they made shows before Dragon Ball, but I don't know if they used the same library.
the fact that is not fun at all.
Idk, the sound effects still sound nice.
I don't understand why people bash them.
@@erde9790 That is why I put the question mark lol.
@@KeyleeTamirian yes some are really iconic for examples luffys stretchy sounds but others could really be modernized, metallic hits and explosions come to mind
@@KeyleeTamirian Some of them are good like the other guy said luffys stretch effects but 80-90% of them just sound awful
I want this remake to be perfect soo bad. It's hard for me to keep my expectations in check xD
@@Sanji_articexplain
I about a week ago recently finally starting climbing the mountain that is this series after being intimidated for so long by it and I'm currently reading the manga and in 150 chapters at the drum island arc with chopper and I'm curious are there any arcs or segments I should switch to the anime or just continue reading all the way to the end?
a coworker told me wano but otherwise said I should just keep reading it, I cant help but feel I'm missing out but at the same time glad I'm not dealing with filler
Considering how good the live action one I think it's fair to have our standards a little high
@@Sanji_artic the staff is nutts tf you on about?
@@Sanji_artic Yeah no clue where you got this idea from, The staff is pretty decent and they haven't even shown anything so you calling them incompetent is some weird delusion you convinced yourself of
The OST is fricking iconic, I hope they keep some of the main core songs, but add unique music to fit certain settings or characters
This is the first video about the remake that actually covers all of my thoughts and worries, i pretty much agree with everything said here, though i do hope we see a few OSTs return here or there, or at least carry some motifs over to other songs.
Honestly for the original OST I'll be happy if just they keep We Are as the OP, To The Grand Line, Mother Sea and Overtaken
Exactly man. I instantly subbed. This video is genuinely good.
WIT Studio better adapt the cover story arcs. If people didn't learn their lesson, the first time the cover stories were relevant to the series, IDK what to say.
I really wish they keep some of the music. It's just too legendary. Also hopefully they keep the "To be Continued" at the end.
Agreed on the music, it would be nice to see one of the original opening in each part they were originally in even if they have a new opening every episode after, I disagree about Tbc every episode though, generally that is annoying.
Yea, you know "Im going to be King of the Pirates" the music that plays when they say their dreams and destroy the barrel, and during almost all of the east blue saga. It would be such a shame if that beautiful track just doesnt play
The first op of the one piece should still be a version of We Are imo. Just because it's just that important for the shows identity. I don't think any other op can kick off the show and properly set up the kind of vibe that the audience needs to have going into this.
Woah a blue comment
@@Rythm101 What? It's blue? What does that mean?
The author explicitly states that this remake needs not to be the same, but to be something new and fresh. Therefore, I think wit must make a new op to show that it's something different and worth watching
I would adapt the cover stories as about 1 minute shorts before the opening theme plays and after the credits
If they actually do it, that would be amazing, but I don't think they will
after the credits sounds reasonable & makes more sense.
I feel like they should make the cover stories the eye-catches that appear before and after a commercial break, similar to how Attack on Titan used their eye-catches to provide extra detail about the world of the series.
Kinda like the whole stone cold Kuzan one where he froze Cracker?
@@theassortedhobbyist Eye catchers are usually only like a couple second though, I don't know how you would fit cover stories in them, unless you just make it an image.
For me the most important thing is to not go too fast. Like we need some shots where the wind is just blowing, sound of waves, sound of birds etc. Let us feel the environment.
Yeah that's literally the only thing wrong with One Pace imo, their view of "if it's not in the manga, it doesn't matter" is ridiculous as there are scenes that bridge things together properly. Like I had to show my friend a few really nice scenes (like the Zoro and Chopper one this video showed) or G8 of course.
But I heard that they're making a separate video to watch if you want your One Pace experience to lead into G8 properly, and it seems like they're finally realizing not all filler is "bad filler"
Bad filler is what One Piece has, where for some reason a scene of Luffy running can be up to 2 minutes for absolutely zero reason, reusing shots that happened like 10 seconds ago, and being borderline unwatchable without realizing how it's just there to pad for time.
Good filler is stuff that actually has thought and work put into it, that also happens to be filler
Nothing wrong with a nice wholesome scene of the Straw Hats just relaxing and sailing in a peaceful windy day.
I hadn't thought about it, but new VAs would become the new legends of a generation! The original cast still has the rest of the original anime to wrap up, and getting fresh blood into such an iconic series would do wonders!
I agree! Sure, it will sounds weird to hear the main cast with different voices but we can get used to it as it goes on.
the editing on this video is insane! been waiting for something like this thanks so much for putting it together, i’m hyped!
I was kinda skeptical about it but you know what? you are completely right! this remake should have everything, nothing from toei's version, new voice actors, new sounds, new animation, pacing, everything, they should treat it as if it was never aniamted before.
THANK you for talking about the sound design, it's ridiculous how little people talk about it, and just defend it by calling the sound effects iconic.
Iconic I think they should mean archaic
i will be forever loyal to the manga, but i hope we will finally get a one piece anime that is easy to recommend to friends who dont know anything about one piece or are maybe not even anime fans. the live action is already pretty good at that right now, but if we get a one piece anime that is easily recommendable to newbies and anime veterans alike? ill be as happy as ill ever be❤️
I don’t understand the point of being a purist to one medium but I agree
@@Goku-fn3qd im not a purist, i just think the manga is the best version of the story! since its the most direct vision from oda as we're gonna get :) i sitll love the anime and the live action, and im pretty sure ill love the new anime as well

@@Goku-fn3qd its fine dw :)
My friend, who claims to "not like Shonen in general" but has seen Naruto multiple times, says he's definitely going to watch a well paced one piece anime.
Naruto is a shounen so what he says is contradictory lol
Shonen is very diverse. Idk what your friend means by that. Not every shonen is the same story
@@Prrojiya17maybe what that friend meant is shounen ai 💀
@@sarov7658 i know that's my point, he doesn't really like Naruto but watches it anyway but one piece is somehow to long...
@@Prrojiya17 wasn't as diverse back then
You honestly hit every single point on what I'd like to see them do with this adaptation lol.
But I just want to say in reguards to the music in particular is on two songs:
Firstly, when it comes to 'We are', I agree that I dont want it to be a big part of the anime, like I dont want it to be an OP but I still definitely think they should reference to it somewhere, a bit like how the live action snuck it into a part of its own original composition. As many have said before: "It's not One Piece without We are".
Secondly: Bink's Sake. I know we are a long way off, but it is the one and only song I cant imagine, nor want a different version of. Its too iconic and perfect for me.
Bink's Sake is not just iconic, Oda literally did the song with a musician and all
Finally! Someone mentions the Chopper x Zoro conversation! That was some of the best dialogue in the entire show!
YOU FORGOT THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS:
- Some GOOD fight coreography
- Adapting the cover stories series (like Enel in the moon) as mini-arcs
- Patching up concepts that have shifted too much with time in One Piece like fixing early bounties and giving some coloring when Haki is being used like after the timeskip (like Dragon holding Smoker)
I agree with everything else though :)
I want them to really capitalize on the “vibe” of the show. The calm and adventurous music the light hearted and simple manga design. I want the show to have that light hearted happy adventurous feel. So new music would be huge. Also the filler is massive. They need to make this world feel alive. Give characters many moments together even if pacing takes a slight hit I don’t need them to rush and finish in east blue in 10 eps. I want them to go more into the dynamics of the crew. Many peoples favorite moments are the in between where the crew hangs out on the ship. My favorite thing about pre timeskip one piece was the little filler scenes that add so much. I don’t want to just go island to island I want the experience of hanging out with characters the straw hats and characters are the reason people watch the show. They also gotta capitalize on the beauty and nostalgia of the world. They really can’t have the world feel dead. Luckily from what we have seen so far they seem very focused on building a world but again to do that more than anything they need the filler. More of characters exploring islands insight to character interactions and dynamics crew mates enjoying them selves on the islands tons of scenery and more time spent on the ship if it’s done well
That basically means when the remake gets to Sabaody (and it will), the last episode of that arc would hit 100x harder than the Toei adaptation did
By far the best vid about one piece remake and what it needs, you touched on every single point i was thinking about the only part you missed is them actually using the correct colors for some characters, like mihawk having red eyes instead of yellow etc
What I would personally love is different character designs and colouring styles for each ark. I love how different arks vibe in different ways and i think that instead of just going for consistency through the entire serie, I would love to have something tailored. I kind of love the difference of style between east blue and egghead
Oda have his respect for wit studio animators and even encourage them to do the remake with their own perspective. But I think he said this because he has seen how OPLA turn out. Maybe he is now more open to how adaptation of his series get done as long as it doesn’t go astray from the original (manga). I personally expect more emphasizing in some dramatic scene from the re-make. Like, better execution for robin’s backstory and story of noland and calgarra.
Truth on that skypiea story between these two legends ❤
Many people forget that the Daddy the Father Loguetown sequence is actually cannon. It was cut from the manga so the crew could get to the Grand line by chapter 100, but it was written by Oda. thats why Ussops goggles just kinda appear in the manga with no explanation in the middle of Loguetown.
you nailed it man
32:00 Dressrosa is what needs remaking the most!
Yeah I agree consistency and pacing is the key for the remake bc I personally don’t see The one piece topping some of toei high moments. Like this most recent episode just has amazing animation, pacing, and quality I mean it has been top tier but the key for the remake is consistency.
IMO.
1. Toei has been adapting One Piece for years, comparing it to recent adaptation is not fair. What about arcs before that?
2. when it happens both studio adapted the same chapter, as long as it's a well thought out of adaptation, idc which one is better, it's just subjective atp.
One thing I’m also hoping to see is possibly an animation team expansion if the show does really well. I hope to see maybe Wit bringing more of their staff onto the project later down the road for some of the more intensive animation scenes in Wano and WCI to try and make it as high-level as they can get.
12:38 HUGE AGREE. the toei crewmate leitmorifs and themes are bangers and basically give one piece a specific musical identity that i struggle to hear from any other anime. Even if the composer is different, i BEG they keep the core tunes the same because they're just so perfect
I will always always always want more We Are! I don’t care how many versions of it we’ve already got, it’s so completely and utterly perfect for One Piece. I almost can’t even imagine OP without WE ARE! in it.
I 100% agree about the pacing you're talking about. Which is why I'm glad Toei is allowing another studio to do the remake. That's where a lot of remakes of older series that Toei Animation have done such as Sailor Moon and Saint Seiya fail at. It's the pacing of how much they should add in between panels. The Sailor Moon remake is almost panel for panel from the manga and the manga was created about the same time the original series started and the author had to rush some of the character development to get to the next chapter so she can stay ahead of the anime. The remake didn't add character moments like the original 90s anime did. As a result, the remake didn't feel like as emotional as the original because we spent less time with character interactions that made the original series special. Which is what I'm hoping for in the One Piece remake is to have better pacing that doesn't drag, nor does it rush.
6:00 I am SO glad, you mentioned the moment between Zoro and Chopper. It is an important scene not only for understanding Zoro's perspective of a team a little better, but also for Chopper to realize what kind of group he joined while also giving him room to figure out for himself what being a pirate means for him.
Zoro is supposed to fill the role of a dad/ older, tough brother for Chopper and this is one of not too many moments showing it.
It honestly belongs in the remake, but I really doubt, they'll add it.
I hate that when I try to recommend one piece to anyone that knows anything they immediately respond “1000 episodes and bad pacing” and I just have to be like “WELP you got me there but the manga is amazing” this remake will remove all of that. I’ll be able to say “just watch the first arc and if you don’t like it stop” instead of “reach episode 34 aka Arlong park and if you don’t like it by then well at least you tried”
Exactly
Its going to get absolute support from fandom.
Nothing will drop related to ONE PIECE
Pacing is really a scene by scene thing. Some types of scenes need slower pacing, some need faster. The best thing about this remake, is that since they have over two decades of material to work with and no fears of ‘catching up’, every scene can be hand crafted to be the best version of itself, with no need (besides episode length/commercial breaks and season finales) to worry about how it will affect how fast the story moves
I agree with everything you say here, however that music man, it just gives me the chills everytime i hear it, especially we are and we go. They just cannot get rid of them. I personally think they should make new music and also use the original one piece music... Also btw, that promotion of ur discord at the end, is probably the most convincing one i have ever seen idk why. I actually joined. keep up the good work...
I'm giving a standing ovation right now. I'm begging and hoping all this comes to fruition. I've dropped the anime at a certain point and have moved on to the manga, but it's nice to hear that toei is popping off as of late. What toei did with early OP will forever remain a special place in my heart. Give us that grand, triumphant, and magical feeling of OP again
There is NO way they're recasting Tanaka as Luffy. There's a reason they put her speaking a line as Luffy in the trailer.
Many other straw hats will probably get replaced though, but I doubt they all will.
They will have to recast her at some point and this adaptation is the perfect opportunity to do so and bring in a new generation of straw hats
Dude, she’s like 70. You have to let her retire at some point

It would be cool to see the things that Oda considers canon (like the Ace Story) included in the anime somehow, like as a way to get us more connected to Ace before Marineford we could have Ace telling Luffy his adventures (of first starting out) in Alabasta, also some of the details that Oda includes in his SBS's should be included in the anime (at least the important things).
As a long time One Piece fan I just wanted to say, this was a very well put together video and I thank you for putting these thoughts into this video.
so nobody is going to talk about bros editor , this video was so well put together. new sub 🎉
Fair points and opinions, I agree with everything you said, i hope the Remake lives up to your hopes and expectations and then some.
Personally, i just hope they adapt the Cover Stories.
Totally agree with your point regarding filler. Those mundane scenes on the ship were some of the best parts in the series. It adds so much more to their bonds. One other example of this is the episode where Brook newly joined the crew. The whole episode was about him trying to figure out his relevance in the crew. The ending where he played Bink's Sake was so beautiful.
As i'm rewatching early episodes, some of "Fillers" are godsent.
Like scene at Nami's house where Nami "talks" to Bellmere before setting on journey with Luffy, or scene in "Roger's" Bar, with the bartender seeing Roger in Luffy.
Maybe the coverstories could be their one own little episode each season!
Here's an example of an idea: The season of Enies Lobby could end with the death of Merry. But then the first episode of the next season could be dedicated entirely for adapting the CP9 agents coverstory. How they survived, gained money to treat Lucci and how they practically leave WG, but promise to come back some day. Setting up the whole CP0 for the future. Then we go back to post-Enies Lobby arc.
Or they make post Ennies Lobby before this and the season ends with Franky joining, Sunnys reveal and Straw Hats leaving Water Seven. But the same set up still.
Fuuuuuck I hadn't even considered them getting new voice actors. I absolutely hate it but you're right, it's the correct move
Im really excited for the remake!! I won't be able to watch this full video now, but i will soon, then edit this comment. [Written 10/13/24]
🎉Whenever you brought up the cover pages beyond the cover stories, my immediate thought was eye-catches. One Piece's og adaptation already has eye-catches, and those cover pages would be perfect for those in WIT Piece.
Cool to see we're on the same wavelength.
if the characters aren't even a bit tanned like in early one piece then idk. Makes sense for me at least that people who spend days on a ship with the burning sun light would be at least a little bit tanned at least.
As someone who has been watching OP for about 15 years (and eventually started reading the manga) let me tell you there are 3 changes that need to be made VERY CAREFULLY:
1.- The soundtrack (it has to be remastered, not entirely changed, since is WAY too iconic, but old)
2.- The voices (If they are changed, it will open an eternal debate, no doubt)
3.- The openings (Same as the soundtrack)
Wit's version of OP shouldn't be a declaration of war between the NEW and the OLD
Very well make video! I am so hyped for this. I am also hopeful that the art style will match the color concepts, but colored better. Watching the Ranma 1/2 remake on Netflix is giving me hope that a lot more of these remakes of older anime will take this hyper colorized soft and fun style, a lot like much of the source material. If they can learn from these other remakes I think they could make something truly special that can become the adaption One Piece deserves.
Honestly seeing them refer to props and draw frames while looking at the manga pages made me even more excited. I love how detailed all the concept art is. I love that you can tell Zoro and Sanji have different builds and body types in the character sheets. And while they should maybe saturate everything a little more, I love the marker look. It looks just like the color spreads. I hope they keep it. I also hope they keep some of the filler stuff the anime did that was actually stuff that Oda wanted to put in but then cut it for time. Like Usopp’s shooting competition and Sanji’s cooking competition from Loguetown. I would also love if they added in some easter eggs that we now know with hindsight, Things like a Marine report about the dreaded Kid pirates or a newspaper article mentioning "the Surgeon of Death Tearing Up the North Blue." Basically what the Live-Action did. I also hope they fix a lot of the color mistakes that the anime made, like Robin's eye color and _Merry’s_ head being brown and not white. And please bring back the orange color for Kuma's jacket. But the production team is crazy! The _Attack on Titan_ director, the director of _Jujutsu Kaisen_ as your assistant director, the character designer and chief animation director of _Attack on Titan_ and _Spy x Family,_ the action animators for the remake worked on _Boruto_ and _My Hero Academia,_ the writer of _Ranking of Kings,_ and the remakes’s animation producer also worked on _Attak on Titan!_ What‽ The board member of WIT in the video said he first heard about the project 4-5 years ago which means they’ve been discussing doing a remake since Wano.
11:48 while i personally love the sound design for one piece, i do get where you are coming from. It isnt on par with a lot of modern anime, to me it works with one piece but i would love to hear new sound design in the new series to get a new feel.
You know… people could watch One Piece one arc at a time. Start with East Blue and decide from there. I feel like too many see the show not as individual stories but the whole.
This video is spot on in so many ways! Especially regarding the "filler" stuff. Things like the crew just hanging out and doing menial tasks like fishing or washing dishes is one of those things that was essential in grounding the interrelationships of the crew! It's a necessary evil since Oda has to finish someday but I really miss these moments in the current story. Perhaps that's why Franky always felt a bit weird to me as a crewmate. Before we ever truly got to know who he was in relation to the crew, beyond his formal role as a shipwright, Brook was already being introduced.
If I have to add one thing, I think everyone is getting ahead of themselves regarding the art of the finished product. It's very common for concept art, especially early concept art, to have a more handpainted look. Thus while it may not be as saturated as Toei, I sincerely doubt that the more washed out handpainted aesthetic will persist. I mean who knows, but I think everyone is being a bit hasty in assuming it will be the same.
I usually get annoyed when i see things getting remakes, but this im excited for. Toei did a great job adapting the manga, but theres so many places they could have improved, so many story beats they could have stayed true to but didnt, so much material they could have used instead of adding filler but didnt. Ive been reading the manga after catching up to the anime, and i keep finding myself wanting to rewatch certain parts (like dressrosa) but i know the pacing will ruin the excitement for me. Even when i was bindging the anime i was fast forwarding through recaps and long ass reaction shots, skipping half episodes cuz it was all recap. So something new is so exciting. I cant wait to reexperience this story again through a new teams eyes.
I am so looking forward to this Remake. I have been following this story for over half my life now, first watching the weekly episodes, later reading the manga. I am now even studying to become part of this industry myself. I don't expect it to be perfect, but i hope that it brings a new life into the old arks (and ofc fixes the issues that occurred due to the weekly schedule within the newer arks) and simultaneously invites new people to experience this masterclass of storytelling
At last someone Talking about the "good" filler elements (in between character moments, welltomed reaction shots, flashbacks, events like the Arlong park walk, many instances in Wano where the rushed Manga is elaborated a bit more making it more epic..., especially expanding those rushed portions in manga by Oda sensei due to deadlines like Wano ending etc...)
Also, extra additional details using SBS, Oda's clarifications and also "good" filler based on Oda sensei's extra info to the animation team... Which Toei also used to do by providing anime only "cannon" details (occasionally).
Of course the"bad" filler elements which r just unnecessarily dragged out stuff is not needed like too many reaction shots, unnecessarily dragged out, repetitive flashbacks etc.., which affects the pacing.
Cover stories is something they can adapt which will a golden opportunity for WIT to differentiate themselves from Toei.
Also, haki consistency and visualization post time skip... Whether something is advanced Conqueror's haki or advanced Armament or base Armament haki.
I'm not someone who wants to see haki coating pretimeskip, as we r seeing from Luffy's eyes and we don't see it.
But there also, they can hint haki wherever Oda sensei left things open-ended for better consistency.
-Recasting VAs is also a practical idea... The OG cast needs rest... as they are also human.
It would be fun to that the OG cast play the "fake strawhats" in Sabaody by putting their unique spin on it... Which is easy for them as it'll only be as cameos... 😂😂
One of the things i look forward for this remake is the Openings and endings. Also the Walk To Arlong filler MUST brought back no Matter what!!!
Dude, your idea for the cover pages/color spreads is literally so fucking good that I hope it becomes real. I always LOVE whenever Toei adapts those into the openings because they just feel so One Piece, but they have done it so few times that I really wish it could be done more.
With the break, they mentioned new audio effects, so we should here some new sounds, not a whole replacement, but an all around increase
Wowsers, a PhenomSage production
I think the only issue is that whoever watches the WIT version will probably never experience the emotion, amazing soundtrack or magnitude of TOEI one piece as it released... I don't even see a point in them reanimating Wano+ tbh
I also don't know how they will capture one piece, will they be able to make it as fun and lighthearted as TOEI did? Or will the style of the show change? I mean it doesn't have to be the same, One Piece Live Action does not have the vibe of the anime and it still works, but I think even more so than shows like DBZ, DBZ Kai, FMA, FMAB, people will only watch 1 or the other, I only watched DBZ and FMAB, but One Piece while I will watch the remake and the original, I kind of already know what it's gonna be like with some people not having the same experience, or never getting to understand how good the version the other people watched was like, I think DBZ and FMAB are my preferred 2 and I wish other people who watched Kai could get to experience some stuff that isn't the same as it was in DBZ, or people who watched FMA or og HxH could experience HxH 2011 or FMAB and how good it is, but a lot of people won't want to revisit what they have already seen.
The thing I will be basing my opinion on the new version on will be the comedic timing. The jokes in pre timeskip one piece are sooo good and sooo well timed. Toei pacing is for sure a big problem, but comedic timing was actually very good! The new version will surely be more fast paced and beautiful, but for example Wano was also faster and more beautiful, but not really funny (or not as funny as a lot of pre time skip (think of for example jaya or the start of thriller bark))! I just hope they will do it justice. I really don't know whether the producer will be able to do the humor justice.
I would like for the new One Piece to feel more like G8 and less like Wano 🤷♀
Thank you for talking about this topic!! I really enjoyed the way you drove your points along with the visuals and everything comparing the different adaptations, it made me realize just how different this remake already feels from them just from the concepts we've seen. I love that you mentioned that "romantic" nostalgic feeling the east blue saga has, that's the exact feeling I want from this remake and I absolutely agree that a new soundtrack would make a huge difference. Honestly I don't know if it's even possible but best case scenario to me would be getting new arrangements of some of toei's soundtrack in juuuust the right moments. My only issue with the remake is really that they announced it so early, it's gonna be hard to wait for it to come out...
FMA vs FMA: Brotherhood comes to mind.
Not really, since FMA is almost entirely filler they took the core of the show and did something almost entirely different and original with it, meanwhile FMA:brotherhood is a pretty good accurate adaptation of the Manga.
@@MrGalRoz not really
@@Sanji_artic thats a better comparison.
@@MrGalRoz The original fma was adapting the manga for alot of it, it was until it nearly caught up with the manga then to keep the pacing and not to make filler eps they decided to stray away from the manga and add their own stuff to the end technically it isnt filler its just anime canon
I wanted a to watch a indepth & comprehensive video about the one piece remake for so long, after watching this one i feel satisfied!
props to you!
Insanely well-though-out video!!!
The people who don't understand the point of One Piece remake are probably the same people who has no idea that the original HxH's and JJBA's original adaptations started at the same decade as when One Piece first release.
Probably never knew they existed too.
Pont to add around 1:30, the content has been adapted several times, Toei themselves have remade East blue 4 seperate times, alabasta is a whole 90 minute movie released in 2007, ARLONG park got remade in 2012 along with another East blue adaptation and Skypeia got remade in like 2014.
Watching the teaser showing the production of the teaser I can tell you they're gonna cook with good details
I hope Wit Studio can get the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure sound designer to work on the One Piece remake, unless he's employed not contracted by David Productions. Because where DavidPro JJBA might be admittedly lacking in animation, Yasumasa Koyama more than makes up for it in sound design, the sound of “The World - Time Stop” is iconic, “King Crimson - Time Erasure” is frightening, the way “C-Moon” intimidatingly walks, the way Enrico Pucci and “Made in Heaven” zip around. The interacting sounds of Bruno Bucciarati's “Sticky Fingers” making long-winding zippers while far away underwater as the POV is near Secco's “Oasis” which liquefied the ground to water, and in the same fight Secco spits the water out of range to deliquefy it back to stone shards and rain back down, which bombarded Bruno underwater. And also “Stone Free” generating a möbius strip on Jolyne's body to prevent “C-Moon” from inverting her body makes a repetitive noise ‘pretty’ and not ‘irritating.
That is the man who should sound design on One Piece, Yasumasa Koyama (小山 恭正). I believe One Piece's powers is perfect for him.
well one thing that i'd like is to add more on the first arcs since we know where the story is going
like in loguetown there's a person that looks like sabo and it makes sense since dragon is also there so it would be cool if loguetown in the new anime had a person that looked like sabo
or how we already know how every yonko is so the silhouettes are more accurate idk
but honestly one of the things i'd like the most is stuff that is canon but isn't really part of the manga to be added to the adaptation like the new ryuma's one shot, it would make the world feel even more alive
let me know what you think
Great video! Though I kind of disagree with changing Toei's sound effects for as long as the Toei anime lasts. To me they're not abhorrent, just old fashioned. They're iconic and feel like a trademark of the show. I like the constant reminder that this legendary show has been streaming for so long. Though I agree that new sound design is perfectly logical for the WIT remake, and I also agree with literally everything else you mentioned. Love the idea of including those manga spreads in the remake especially, such a good idea!
i think what the remake would be fantastic to match the more advanced fight scenes of the latest arcs. old once piece fight scenes looks grounded and characters seems weak compared to what they are now today. so tweaking their old fight scenes would make things more consistent.
Checked on your channel a few hours ago to watch your 1015, Megumi Ishitani, video and saw your last upload was 3 MONTHS ago!
I was worried you'd taken some time off from your channel but you took NO time to tell me otherwise, and with half an hour of one piece no less.
Love your channel and videos!
The sound effects in One Piece are much older than just 20 years or even 40 years, some sound effects that are used can date back as far as the 1977 Star Wars movie.
1) kind of glad you pointed that with one piece good pacing =\= fast pacing. i"m always mad that a lot of people think the early episodes of one piece (or other shows of that era like hunter x hunter 1999) are unwatchable because of a slower pacing. a lot of times in one piece, espielly after the timeskip, the anime gets noticablly worse because of it's pacing but it wasn't always that way. i just struggle to believe a seasonal show like one piece reboot that also needs to compete with all new anime as well as it's original getting the 150 episodes minimum that it needs just to get to the parts that actually need fixing in the original
2) original episode fillers absoulutley deserve the reputation they have, but if also think they are underrated in terms of conributing to their franchise. durring the big 3 era people obssed over the most random characters, and that was mostly because the shows length allowed so mant characters. but it was also because filler arcs gave space for a lot characters like most of konoha 11 and the soul society mini arcs when their role in the main story shrank. i think if modern anime like jujutsu kaisen or demon slayer had them it would make their extended cast much more popular
3) agree, the va are classics and each of them is talented, but they have been casted 25 years ago. the aging and the fact that they performed the same lines for years and years is felt, the franchise needs new blood. one piece is not one piece without muyumi tanaka and the gang, and any new one piece game without them is a sin, but as long as the main series keeps them i will be happy
4) totaly agree about the sound design, i like one piece's consistency but there's no reason to not update anything
5) i feel like the ideal way to use music is the botw aproach, give the series it's own identity with it's own music instead of a milion covers of old songs for fanservice, but the new composers could hide tiny refernces to old songs in the music for diehard fans.
6) something about the character designs of the new series feels kind of rigid and lifeless, i"m not sure how to put it into words. i love when one piece does a radical change of the character designs like wano, egghead and movies, but something about the new designs doesn't work for me. oda's pre timeskip designs are very dynamic and there's none of it in the concept art in my opinion. both aot and psycho pass have good designs, but they are not known for expresive characters. something like Nozaki Atsuko work on wit's ousama ranking would fit east blue much more in my opinion
7) i"m afraid toei's one piece will get worse with the wit reboot. both studio's rely on freelancers to function, so the talent pool of animators passionate enough about one piece to work on it will be shared between both productions. wit's seasonal nature would be hurt less
8) cover stories not being adapted to this day is a travesty. jump series in genral underuse color pages and spreads.
9) i just struggle to imagine the reamke adapting the content that needs a remake the most. we are either never going to see wit dressrosa or it's going to have promised neverland 2 pacing. wit never adapted more than 3 seasons of single show. unlike a studio like bones that is known for longer adaptations like mha or bungou stray dogs, i don't trust them to commit to such a long production even on the best terms
another debate about modern one piece that i see a lot but isn't disscussed about in the remake the modern toei auras. a lot of people hate them because "one piece isn't dragon ball" but i think that from wano onwards they feel awsome and deserved. the strong trio are not just some pirates, they are a yonko and his wings and they should feel powerful. i feel that for early one piece when the strawhats are just some guys auras would feel weird
I’ve been a huge fan of the One Piece manga since I got caught up in 2018. I have re-read the entirety of it two more times since then. I love One Piece more than any other animanga property in existence. That said, even as early as Baratie, the pacing is UNWATCHABLY slow. It’s ridiculous. The fight with Don Kreig should not have taken 4 fucking episodes. The pacing of the Toei anime is complete garbage basically from the beginning, and only gets worse as it goes on.
I totally agree with good pacing =\= fast pacing.
Ive had a lot of trouble engaging with some other animes because they dont allow themselves the time to develop chacracters/audience relationship. They feel like rushing to reach the end of it.
Sometimes even slow pacing is better than fast pacing. If you can make smooth cinematic transitions, like taking the time to show some shots of the sea and people hanging on a town but done good, that is something I much prefer than just skipping that.
A problem with the toei pacing though is that it does this things badly and in tye climax of arcs sometimes. And im thinking of the onigashima part of wano here. It was so hard to watch even when it was the climax of the arc. I was so happy when i caught up and switched to the manga right before gear 5.
Anyways, im so happy this remake is coming and also have my hopes up.
@@maximillion322 100% agree with you. I stopped watching the anime during dressrosa (for obvious reasons) and have since read the manga multiple times. I watched One Pace with my partner back when they still hadn't finished Baratie, and it was painful to get through. I think people underestimate how much unnecessary padding there was even as early as Baratie. You really notice it when going from One Pace to One Piece.
@@maximillion322honestly the only one piece arc that I love to re-watch over and over again is water 7-enies lobby. I can’t stand how toei works the rest of it. I only start watch the anime again since megumi ishitani involved making the storyboard. Wano and egghead actually look good that made me happy.
@@UtaminoUta The W7 saga has 25-30 useless episodes.
The pace is just bearable but far for being good.
I would like the remake to clearly stand out from the anime with a different sound design, music and seyuu, this is what HXH 2011, Dragon quest 2020 and Jojo Bizarre adventure did (parts 1 and 3 are basically remakes of the film Phantom Blood and OAVs of part 3 released between 1993 and 2000)
and for the seyuu I prefer that it is a change of seyuu from the first episode instead of him announcing that he will play their character and then a hundred episodes later declaring that they were going to retire (or worse Again )
at the limit that he is present but that he plays older characters
I’m so excited for it to come out because then my dad will start watching it but I’m already far into watching it normally
❤❤ cool dad
You've got my hopes up with the cover stories and cute color spread pages being animated. I hope this dream comes true
People saying "why are they remaking this" CLEARLY haven't watched the Toei anime. IT SUCKS, they stretch 1 - 2 panels out for 20 minutes after 10 minutes of recapping the last 10 episodes. It has its good moments but for the most part it is a SLOG to get through.
I mean I'm excited for the remake but I do like the current anime as well. But I know I'm probably more tolerant towards pacing than other people lol
You're obvi new here. I read and watched since 2003 and have never cared, just love the world of One Piece. Don't get how people can bitch and moan this much for more speed, One Piece isn't about that and it never has been. Even in the manga panels could be a bit dragged but loaded with information if you looked for it (pretty fat reveals). But 1-2 panels for 20 minutes? You're being absolutely ridiculous my man, and you know that.
They are probably just in pre time skip and haven't experienced the pain in Dressrosa yet.
@@Ringoroadagain6pre ts has issues too in thriller bark and skypia
@sarov7658 definitely does, but nothing comes close to Dressrosa and WCI with their Atrocious pacing.
13:30 AHAHAHA ! YOSHIHISA hirano the guy that did the beautiful music for hxh 2011 i totally agree , actually this was my first choice for one piece remake as well 😂 glad that you noticed it too❤
4:00 Whiplash reference
😐
NGL, I've been watching OP for 5 years now. I have to take breaks after a few arcs for some mental release because this series gets really intense and destroys me emotionally
I think on the sound end, the reason they haven't changed it is because EXPECT it to be that way? It's like how Lightsabers in Star Wars have a specific sound or how Blasters in same said series sound. I get the feeling they don't want to jar or anger some fans by changing the sound effects.
nah, they just want to maximize profit. you are so naive.
@@erde9790 how is it significantly less profitable to just use a different sound file lmao.
@@erde9790 well there is a cheapness factor to be sure. I just don't think it's the ONLY reason.
Remember it's one of the most popular series ever in the history of ever. Appeasing there fans a little bit is part of it.
But yeah it's mostly a money thing.
@@vileone13 How much do you think it costs to create a sound effect lmao?
@@mattheww9763 depends honestly, you have to pay foaly men/women for one and when you have to make episodes every week on a consistent rate that's alot of money.
I'm not defending the practice, I'm just saying I get it. You gotta cut corners when you can...though you'd think with the money One Piece brings in they could afford better sound effects.
The colour spreads as eye catchers is such an amazing idea. I hope they consider it!
I've been good all my life not constantly bugging my friends to watch/read one piece. I realize it's tough to get into, and intimidatingly long.
But i will strap them down and force them to watch The One Piece when it comes out. I will be the most annoying piece of shit about it until they either watch it, or hate me
i agree with you on most points you make in this video, except your take on the changing of the music. i think these pieces of music ARE indeed one piece in my eyes. essential to the feel of everything, goddamn! some of those songs make tear up just by listening
@@Sanji_artic just my 2 cents
Lol what a timing, just 6 days after this video a remake of fishman island addressing all of the issues in this video gets announced. And I'm 99% sure people are going to like that, so Toei is going to keep doing remakes of older arcs with better pacing in-between current arcs
I love all your takes! Especially the little things that’s are in the show, don’t get rid of the little background gags!
People are so surprised about a remake of something that they fail to realize that it's from 1999! and HxH did the exact same thing in 2011
I would like to see a visualization of the original one piece intro animation We Are! where the animation starts with the original style but slowly transitions into the new WIT studio style along with what ever is needed. Just a thought tough!
16:18 those old eye-designs are charismatic & slayful for luffy & nami. i missed them so damn much man no wonder i fell out of love for the anime by the time of dressrosa back then (it's back to being my favorite anime since those modern episodes, but DUUUUUUDE, Water 7 & Impel Down changed my entire Fing life as it was).
that's why One Piece is not attract younger generation. when you old people feel bias because of nostalgia, younger generation doesn't.
@@erde9790 what do you mean? the animation is the best its ever been as of wano & egghead. i just prefer the designs in water 7 which is still technically a newer style for the series. i don't know too many peeps above my age who've really gotten into one piece compared with fellow zillennials & zoomers. their loss (/s).
anyhoo it's all within the same show
I keep commenting lmao but I also want to say, the sudden increase in one piece animation quality is likely due to the fact that all the kids who grew up on One Piece are now rising up with the "New Gen Animators" of the Digital age of 2D animation. They're all joining to work on one piece with great passion, and we also are seeing a lot of fantastic key animators like Chris BM, ROAD SIGN, Akihiro Ota, Shinya Ohira, Vincent Chansard, Shuu Sugita, Bahi JD, Masami Mori and many many more- most of them seeming to have joined the One Piece production only in wano. The new animation director allows much more flexibility with visual style to "break" the art style at times, which leads to amazing animators like Akihiro Ota and Masami Mori to really shine. They also improved the colours, and the lineart. Anime Lineart looking "too clean" is an issue One Piece had for a really long time, and I think most noticably in Dressrosa, Whole Cake and Zou. it just looked yuck. Wano brought forth an age in One Piece of creative liberty, similar to the creative liberties that Mob Psycho 100 had, where the beauty and passion in art is appreciated through the show, most noticably to me, by Megumi Ishitani. One Piece has elevated itself from just a story that is animated, to Art in every way (except perhaps the sound design, lmao).
It's been revealed that it will have really good pacing and only 263 episodes up until end of egghead, so aproximately 300ep by the end of final saga
Beautifully made video, cinema, great points, great job.
It better have good pacing. Romance Dawn for the original anime does not have bad pacing. It doesn't have the problem until we get to maybe Skypeia.
Hell Yeah, The Eye Catcher Idea sounds absolutely fantastic. If they end up doing that in some way, it'll definitely capture these great moments that are missed for those who don't read the manga!
