I’ve had a few people join my Patreon because of this video, looking for my full reactions. I want to be clear: I do streams on Patreon for new manga chapters but I did NOT stream the anime reactions.
You’re welcome to join the Patreon if you’d like, but I don’t want any confusion that would cause you to waste your money
Appreciate the honesty
Looking hot today!
Sorry to ask this I just want to clarify. I know you only do streams on your patreon and won’t do reactions but I’m curious if you are ever going to post the full reactions on patreon for this video or not at all? Sorry to ask I just want to know if I understood correctly.
@@Mitchis_Euphoria She's always been a "book tuber" more than anything, not a "reaction" content farm, so it's best not to expect that here.
@@EliasBremer booooooooo you suck
The people who suggested this must surely have been plotting to get Merphy to cry for like 20 minutes straight.
more like 2 hrs straight 😫
😂
@@merphynapier42 This is why, I always prepare my cry towel and bottle of water for One Piece time, you never know when you might need them.
Can confirm
Mission accomplished.
How does that meme go? When talking to a reader about a book: "This is going to make you angry and sad and make you cry. You'll love it!"
While the One piece anime has a ton of issues and reading the manga is basically the best way to experience the story imo, one thing I really think Merphy may have missed by not watching the anime is getting emotional attached to the soundtrack.
Like, everytime I hear We are or a remixed version of it in the anime, I usually get this intense wave of emotions due to how iconic it is.
Anime has been better than the manga since Wholecake
@@matthewgilroy8701 Not at all, the recent pacing is awful.
@@matthewgilroy8701lol what are you smoking bud
i love both and have seen EVERY episode lol several times
A ton of issues????????? Think you’re over critical, that’s all
13:32 The episode director for 1015 is a woman named Megumi Ishitani and that episode took her from being a notable director to being an absolute legend in the One Piece community.
And before that she directed episodes 957 and 982 which are also two of the best episodes in the entire show. She's basically 3/3 with the episodes she directed being 10 out of 10 lol. Let's not talk about the most recent opening which also became a instant fave for all the fans.. Man, I just need Ishitani back directing an actual episode again. Imagine her in charge of chapter 1102.. that shit could turn out to be the best episode in the entire series
The WCI 'Sanji leaving Luffy' scene is the most I've ever cried for the anime adaptation of One Piece 😭😭 The way the carriage is moving off into the distance while Luffy is still screaming at Sanji to "make sure you come back". Sanji, while trying not to show it, is crying his heart out at the friend he's leaving behind. And the ost is such perfect choice too!
"I want to live" gets me every single time. So reliably, in fact, that if I feel like I'm out-of-sorts emotionally and a cry would help, I just go back and watch that part.
Sometimes you just need a little prod to let that cry out. One piece can always help with that haha
Water 7 and Enies Lobby is the best arc, between that and Sogeking shooting the flag and Merry. That's where I fell in love with One Piece.
@@twoheadedpanthr I started reading OP after enjoying the Live Cation adaptation and the Water 7 saga hit me so hard that I had to put the book downand re-watch the arc in the anime, and then when that ended...I wanted to re-read it. But no! I must move onto Thriller Bark!
I kept myself together reading the Nami scene in Arlong Park but the voice acting in the anime broke me. Reading that scene now is more impactful to me because have the audio in my head as I read it.
Along with the scenes you mentioned, one that really stands out to me is the scene where Chopper cries out after witnessing the cherry blossom tree bloom in drum kingdom. Also I have no doubt that Eggheaad is going to deliver an absolute treasure trove of iconic moments in the anime before it's done.
😏😂😂
that scene atomized me. we're witnessing a man's dream come true with the man already departed from this world. And I'm a man who killed his own dream
If you are getting into anime clips, I would recommend watching episode 384. It's a filler episode focused around Brook, and it's set just after he joins the crew. It takes place on the Sunny and its just about Brook trying to fit in by being helpful, which doesn't go well. If you're looking for crew interactions it's a fun watch.
That was real fun and sad
I wish we had more filler episodes like that.
Merphy getting into One Piece is one of the best things to ever happen to this series, love your videos ❤
wow that's so kind 😭
@@merphynapier42it’s true!
I agree! A lot of UA-camrs do predictions and power analysis, but Merphy covers character analysis like no one else. The emotion and motivation. I never miss a video.
The entire scene of Luffy finishing off Lucci with Jet Gatling for the first time is probably my favorite attack in all of anime. Everything about it hits for me. The leadup of Luffy stumbling forward and spewing blood, the flashbacks to Robin, Luffy's face when Lucci turns around to see him, his arms just disappearing for the windup, the wall of fists hitting Lucci, the birds eye view shot that makes it look like anti-aircraft rounds are just being launched rapidfire at Lucci, and Mayumi Tanaka's scream as Luffy obliterates the wall behind Lucci. *chef's kiss*
The slow motion effect of the fists hitting Lucci all at once was just incredible to me. It really showed just how fast he was throwing those punches when you could see 5 or 6 of them hitting him at the same time. Then the sonic boom effects and his arms disappearing. Same thing happened in his fight with Blueno when he used jet pistol. Speed feats have always been my favorite type of thing in anime
Luffy screaming atari maida prior to all of that and the music during that scene was peak OP anime.
The moment the fists start hitting him is the moment that got me to watch the series way back when.
Still gunna go with the Celestial Dragon punch, but I respect your choice.
@fatboy7609 the fact that Lucci had beaten his ass so hard on that fight and Luffy still managed to pull that move out puts it over Luffy punching the animation out of that scene
Most people I talk to tends to say the Ace dying moment as their most heart wrenching memory of the one piece anime but for me it's the scene where Dadan confronts Garp afterwards. When I eventually watch it for the hundredth time I will still bawl my eys out. Everyone is caught up in the recency bias highlighting Kuma when it comes to one piece parents but if I'd describe my feelings going through that it'd be a slow clawing on my heart whilst with Dadan it was more like an insta-kill ripping my heart out.
yasss!! that's the same for me!! seeing their adoptive mom cry breaks my heart
1. Law's flashback(corz's death) 2:40
2. Bink's sake(brook) 6:24
3. Arlong park( nami's help me) 8:25
4. mix 10:10
5. yamato (luffy rodger animation) 12:55
6.
I love the scene where the strawhats about to drink sake to welcome Jimbei before entering Onigashima but decided to stop and put down the sake cup. I just love seeing all their smiles
Yeah. Basically all of the scenes in episodes directed by Megumi Ishitani are a must watch lmao. 957, 982 and 1015.
law's flashback is (in my opinion) still the most heart-wrenching and the anime adapted it perfectly. Not surprised in the slightest that it was your favourite of all the scenes you watched
When talking about emotional One Piece moments we mostly talk about sad-emotional moments, but one of my favorite stretches of One Piece are episodes 962-969 - about Oden's journey with Whitebeard and Roger. Especially the ending of the episode 968 where Roger's Pirates reach last island is very happy-emotional, ampilified by great music in the anime.
One of my absolute favorite episodes is episode 808 luffy vs sanji with luffy's speech at the end is so emotional, me and my mom cried watching that.
Tru
The Yamato seeing Roger in Luffy was 1015. Ishitani’s directing made that episode my absolute favorite. It goes from beautiful flashback illuminating Yamato’s feelings toward Ace and Luffy, to Luffy seeing all of the reasons he’s fighting as he delivers the first blow to Kaido. It was just stunning and emotional from beginning to end.
When I think of moments propelled by phenomenal voice acting, one that wasn't mentioned here that comes to mind is Luffy's yelling after Sanji riding away on the carriage in Whole Cake Island. To me it's one of Mayumi Tanaka's best performances as Luffy and it always gets an emotional rise out of me.
I thought of this too, it's a great episode. The music when Sanji was attacking Luffy was great too
Also whenever anyone mentions Queen's Zoom song it gets stuck in my head for the majority of the day...so thanks Merphy 🤣
When sanji meets Duval, and everyone’s shocked, and Brook just DIES laughing. Except he’s already dead ! YOHOHOHOOOOO
Some of the scenes Brook is in are BONE chilling and some are just pure comedy, though he's only bones ! YOHOHOHOHOHOH
Listening to your experience of the Corazon seen actually had me tearing up. I'm glad to hear someone else experienced those scenes and felt similarly about them to me.
Luffy walking past big mom and Kaido to check on the scabbards is edited with an extra gut punch. One of the best anime additions
There are far too many emotional scenes obviously but nothing made me bawl my eyes out every single time than the episode of Merry's sea Funeral. As soon as Merry says "Gomenne", it basically squeezes ur heart. That moment is of different dimension in sense of emotions
1015 is peak Megumi..Yamato seeing Luffy and Roger sharing the same dream, hit me so good...Oda also mentioned, he cried tears of joy during the Wano episodes.
Music alone in the anime gives these iconic scenes so much more emotional depth. Everytime Mother Sea played in the anime Merry's death scene always plays in my mind and makes me even more emotional.
I was most happy to hear you appreciate Nami's Help me scene. Robin's scene is amazing, but Nami's mental break hits me hard every time
Yes! Guys, we got her into it! First the Manga, now the Anime! let’s go! ❤Merphy
When you just read an awesome chapter and think to yourself “I can’t wait how they will animate this!“
Every Egghead scene ❤
Corazon is one of my favorite characters ever. He really captured my heart in all ways.
The scenes after the Usopp and Sanji’s fight with their captain are awesome too, so heart breaking. Overall throughout the series, the VA’s done an awesome job bringing the characters in to life
Watching Merphy cry was the biggest awww moment I've ever had. It brought those same feelings back to me from when I watched those moments so many years ago. I'm happy she got to experience them In the medium that I know and love!
Actually, I'm not surprised its Corazon. That scene always makes me tear up. He was such a wonderful character.
I'm so glad you specifically mentioned the Roger laughed scene. As someone who has been watching the anime since 2004, that scene hit me in a way that I've never really been able to articulate.
Every time I see it I get choked up with...happiness? Nostalgia? I'm not sure. The One Piece was this thing we had been wandering about for almost 20 actual years and here are the guys that found it, and rather than be amazed or astonished, all these hardened pirates were rolling around laughing. And the use of the old ending theme really sends it over the top.
Oh wow, don't think I've ever seen Merphy lose it like in Law's flashback. Jeez, I'm not even like the flaskback that much, but I felt that.
It's very fitting that you've posted your reaction bawling your eyes out to Corazon's death with no sound
15:38 the Anime do this because of the Japanese hierarchy society structure, basically all big Corps like Toei are headed by very old somewhat traditional men who (in this particular case) has it stuck mind that Shonen is for 14 year old boys and 14 year old boys like giant boobs so the Anime should enlarge all boobs and also hyper focus on them whenever possible.
I think this was a great compromise. Got to share in the experience a little bit while also retaining your usual style. I didn't hear you mention it, but I do hope you managed to catch the finale of the Luffy vs. Crocodile fight. The added audio of the anime raises that experience to such a completely different level.
I've seen these scenes for countless times and still gets me up. And even while Merphy expressing her exp, its still gets me.
reading the manga (to me) is like an appetizer. because the whole time im reading it, im just imagining the osts they'll use, the VAs putting in the emotions, the framing and the movement that will all go into making it feel alive in the anime. like, i cried when i read Merry's death, but when i watched 312 i was SOBBING on the floor because of how incredibly well they handled the impact of the scene.
10:25 that very slow build up of luffy punching a celestial dragon blew my mind when I was a little kid 😱🥶✨⚡🔥
The thing with Anime that is the one thing it REALLY has over Manga, is music.
The right score playing along any scene can really make or break that scene beyond what Manga can pull off.
I think the anime elevates the material. The anime fleshes things out and gives moments time to breathe so we can get more emotionally invested, aided in no small part by the amazing voice acting from the Japanese cast and that gorgeous orchestral score. Take Zoro's backstory for example. The manga squeezes it in while he's tied up in the yard. The anime gives it a full episode, filled with cute, funny, and endearing interactions. Zoro attempting Dojo-Challenging, cramming as many wooden swords as he can into his hands and mouth, dropping them each time he bows. Watching his rage and trauma-filled training, it's all so much more impactful.
On the other hand some of the things in this episode doesn't make sense anymore if you have current manga (especially SBS) knowledge.
Anime is dog Doo Doo compared to the manga. It ruined a lot of great moments.
@@789blablajaja name them. What "moments" in the manga were ruined?
I think pacing wise is a big reason why the anime is behind the manga IMO when the anime goes hard it certainly goes hard but as a complete package the manga is better as a whole and I think most would agree with that especially post-timeskip.@@pickthestickup
@789blablajaja L Take
My favorite sad, hopeless scene as well:
The silence stopping and the viewer and Law knowing what that means…
Law's story was given great care. imo one of the saddest frames in the entire show is when Law hides his poor oblivious sister in a cabinet, only to realize she literally burned alive waiting for him to come back... 😭
Episode 1015 with Yamato reading the journal is my favourite. The first half is amazing, but Luffy's walk past Kaido and Big Mom to speak with Kinemon was incredible. In the manga this act gave me chills and for the first time really made me think, okay that's Pirate King Luffy vibes. My favourite chapter AND anime episode. That says a lot about the effort and skill put into these artworks.
I have to agree about the Nami scene it's too good the voice actress ( I'm talking japanese voice actress I don't remember the English version) she did so well the screaming the whimpering the breathing all these little things together gave such an emotional scene that I can't forget it was too good one piece has a lot of good voice acting emotional or comical but when it comes to emotional I think that was my favorite voice acting
Law’s flashback is legit amazing! I wasn’t very invested in Law until I saw it. I think it’s a great choice. Plus, Cora’s Japanese VA is excellent.
Also, Merphy, you’d be amazing at analyzing Fruits Basket which is all about the complications of family history.
That Nami Luffy moment was when I felt how amazing this show was going to be... as soon as he gave her his hat I was like "Woah, I'm in for a ride" seeing Nami so helpless, and vulnerable after she was trying to be so strong (MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY) for everyone, then her asking for help. Then Luffy saying: damn right I'm going to help you.
I believe Sousou no Frieren is definitely a manga/anime you would also really enjoy.
Also i gotta say that i really love your One Piece content, Merph!
Agreed! She should read/watch it with Philip. It's a very good twist to the classic fantasy setting.
the music in one piece anime is a masterpiece
The first time I experienced One Piece was through the anime. Years ago, I liked it quite a lot until we arrived at Arlong Park. That scene with Nami and the voice acting just made me fall in love with the series. The voice acting in One Piece is incredible. I caught up with the anime in Marineford. Since then, I have started reading the manga and always make time to read the new chapter. One Piece, whether in manga or anime, is just amazing, and I can't wait for the live action now haha
I really appreciate your willingness to be vulnerable and share your heart with us. Thanks so much! 💙
There’s a fan video called the “Breathtaking World of One Piece” that’s a fun look at the anime world meant to get people into the series you might enjoy.
I don't know if somebody already told you, but in defense of the animators on the bonney case, the episode production starts a lot of months before it finally airs, so it was produced before we got the real age of bonney on the flashback
When I first got into One Piece I got so obsessed that after catching up to the manga, I watched every single anime episode and movie that was out at the time. While I loved it plenty just based off the manga, hearing Robin scream "I wanna live" and the Merry thanking the crew made those scenes etch into the center of my brain. I can just think about them and start crying.
i'M GLAD YOU ENJOED IT
There are a lot of scenes in one piece that get me emotional, but one that consistently does is when at the end of Binks Sake when Brook starts crying and declares that he is happy to be alive. That scene gets me every time without fail.
Law's flashback is my favorite too. Tore me to shreds.
Monuments by mutemath is the song Murphy referenced and it’s beautiful, it’s been my parents song since it was released
That Luffy asking Law if he was gonna betray him for the pirate alliance was not just the smile that was funny it was the thumbs up to his crew with the smile that sold it with the sparkles coming off his eyes
If you’re interested in anime, there are some really good ones which were not adapted from manga. A couple examples would be Steins;Gate which is a sci-fi series with elements of suspense and thriller mixed in, cowboy bebop which you’ve probably heard of by now, space dandy which is pretty much just cowboy bebop with a heavier focus on comedy, anohana which is a supernatural drama, and angel beats which is a supernatural drama/comedy. All of these are pretty easy to get into (with the possible exception of Steins;Gate because the first episode is kinda confusing)
I love it when you keep rambling about One Piece regardless if it's the Anime or Manga.
We want more longer form content with you just rambling passionately
I’m so glad you love this series as much as you do Merphy, idk why but it almost validates how I’ve felt about One Piece for a long time. One piece will always be great in my eyes no matter what others think but you enjoying it also validates that feeling for me.
I agree with u regarding that Nami scene.....I love Robin's "I want to live!" but the whole build up of frustration and hopelessness from Nami leading into her just breaking down and asking Luffy "Help me"...Nami's voice actress nailed it to perfection. Nothing tops that scene for me to this day, it's just something really special
I'm glad u seem more into anime after this. I'm personally anime only for one piece & while I C where the complaints lie I also don't have many of those same feelins most of the time, tho I'm a very particular type of person. I hope u do somethin like this for naruto & the like cus there's a TON of amazin stuff that really adds or jus elevates each experience when it really counts.
I will never not cry whenever I watch Law’s and Brook’s flashbacks, and I will never stop laughing at that Zombie scene as well
Honestly is someone made just like a 3 hour long playlist of all of these scenes i'd watch it. it would be a roller coaster of emotions but still probably the best one piece movie
Would love to see Merphy talk about all the One Piece openings and endings!
I’m so glad you mentioned that Luffy/Franky Fishman Island scene! The first time I saw that I had to pause the show because I couldn’t stop laughing. Even just thinking about it now cracks me up. Also the Nami scene is some of the best acting in the show. And I’m sure you’ve seen them already but the voice actor for Luffy puts in some amazing performances during the brutal moments in the Summit War saga.
one of my favourite law scenes in the anime by far is I think just before dressrosa when law tells the straw hats they have to make a plan or some such and they all just turn around and announce what food they want instead and law gets swept up in it and shouts about not eating bread and makes the funniest face ever like 'did I just say that?' Its been too long since I watched the anime but there are a lot of great small scenes like that, that stick in your mind for a long time.
please also watch Brook playing his song when they swim with the wales to get into New world! it’s so awesome
One of my favorite anime scenes is bellemere’s death, where the color and sound cuts out when the gunshot goes off…it really sells the feeling of the entire world leaving in an instant and how traumatic that moment was for them, it still makes me cry and i’ve seen it so many times. The feeling of the color and sound returning after it’s all over really sells the gravity of what was lost and how low things have fallen for those two girls. It was an early moment of amazing direction in the show.
I don't remember did Merphy watched One Piece movies but I would really love to see her review or discussion on Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island.
The track that always gets me is Mother Sea. It is the sad slow version of the opening We Are and my god is it effective. I have cried every time save for once when it plays. I used to binge One Piece yearly. I can’t do that anymore, now it has me hooked and I’m loving it. Here’s to the best story ever told.
Episode 1015 is one of my favorite episodes in the entire anime, the animation, the art, the music, the direction. I just love it
2:04
merry: burning
merphy: openly sobbing
girl, me too 😭 me too
Huh, Merphy's getting into the anime? Nice!
Every so often, the anime will blow me away. Like the Luffy vs. Usopp argument & fight (Ep 235 - 236), or in Skypeia where they are dancing around the campfire, scenes like that are just incredible.
If you haven't, someone should share some clips from the Filler G-8 Arc! I think you'd get a kick out of Condoriano.
There is an anime original scene which you didn't mention so I want to recommend it: During the Zou arc, they have Brook sing a song about Nekomamushi while they're heading to meet him. If you just search for "Brook Nekomamushi song" on UA-cam, you will find the clip. It's fun. It's a song that the voice actor for Brook wrote himself.
Reading the manga and then going back to watch parts in the anime is how I have experienced most of One Piece so it was neat seeing you go through the same journey.
For me, the Crokus scece when they reach the Grand Line for the first time. I LOOOVE that scene.
Brook bink sake is another of my favourite OP iconic moments ✨⚡🔥(I'm glad that he joined the straw hats and got out of thriller park for good 😭😍💖)
RAHHHH CORASAN AND LAW MENTIONED
That makes me so happy, I LOVE that scene in the anime. You nailed all the things that make it special (and so painful :’))
Less about the animation and more about the sound design, but the buildup of the drums just before the Gear 5 reveal was absolutely phenomenal. Say what you will about how Gear 5 itself was adapted, but the way that previous episode ended was incredible.
I highly recommend you to focus on anime originals or anime that generally is considered better than the source material (ex: the Promised Neverland season 1, Demon Slayer),if you want to do more anime related stuff, but I also enjoy hearing your opinions on how they adapted certain things in One Piece.
Some of my favourite scenes are Brook laughing at Sanji and Duval's resemblance, the toys turning back in Dressrosa and Luffy ringing the golden bell in Jaya.
Oh gawd, you're take on bonnie blew my mind. I didn't even think about the chapters with her, and I'm caught up.
emotional anime that just hit you: made in abyss, grave of the fireflies ....there are more but those just came to my mind right now
Oh, your poor tear glands… I’ve done the “greatest hits (to your feelings)” clip show before, so I know how watching all those scenes on a row feels.
I need a drink now… gonna go for some Binks sake.
RIP Merphy’s happiness this day.
A lot of the orchestral pieces in the anime are soooo good too, that I can't imagine what they might do if they change that for the rebooted anime
Law's flashback is amazing. No disappointment here.
I thought this was about reacting to Morj's video about iconic moments from each arc. I feel like Morj has so many videos that'd up Merphy's alley. Wish they would collab
Did you watch Sabaody momebt of Luffy's breakdown with somber version of Binks' Sake playing? God it wrecks me! And Luffy saying to Sanji "Without you I can't become King of the Pirates"
My favorite scene in the anime is the one at the end of enies lobby when the straw hats all jumped into the sea, to the marines it looked like the pirates have lost their minds, but then we hear Merrys voice, "Let's go back to the sea of adventure", and the sign of friendship theme plays. Peak fiction
I'm glad you sprinkled in some of the fun times during your review of the iconic scenes, because unfortunately the sadness and trauma tend to stick out as the most iconic and that just can't be a rough time watching them all together.
I was waiting for this video of yours since seeing your first OP arc reviews. I'm so happy you have seen these great scenes now, too and thank you for sharing your impressions!
yeah, the color and the sound and the movement of the characters add dimension to the scenes. it makes everything more powerful imo
Aw. I don't think it would have been you turning into a reaction channel, it would have just been you reacting to one thing that's important to you, like a one-off type situation. That's okay tho~❤
