Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'm totally onboard with your anime journey!!! Looking forward to it!
Loved the video.
I hope you get more detailed in future videos, ( as especially I can speak for one piece fans), we never get tired of hearing in depth breakdown, and analysis of one piece or even other anime...
About the Zoro's backstory, it was more fleshed out and has better contexualized the relationship between Zoro and kuina, which live action couldn't fully delve into due to screentime constraints. Same happened with for Arong park arc. Still it's as effective as the original in some ways inspite of all those constraints, which in itself is a commendable job by Matt Owens and whole team!

Looking forward to more videos! If you're just starting out, I highly recommend watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood as a starter. (As a One Piece fan..)
FMAB is shorter and incredibly well-paced compared to some other popular animes. You can finish it and make a review on it pretty quickly.
IMO, FMAB is the closest to perfection as far as anime goes, and I think many others would agree if they've watched the whole thing.
- Solid characters: protagonists are very likable and not a single side character goes underutilized.
- Great storytelling and pacing: it makes a dark and mature concept very digestible for any type of audience. Every scene is intentionally added for the plot.
- Balanced comedic moments: they come at the right time and it's not overdone
- Action: I usually get bored of fight scenes because I'm in it for the story but these animators really know how to make a fight scene look interesting.
Okay that was my pitch. Bye!

Here's the thing that the live action kind of mess up with the dynamics of the Straw Hats especially Luffy in the anime and manga. They're pirates they dont really care that much about "being good." They usually do good things simply because of happenstance. They helped save Coco village not because they had a problem with Arlong taking over the town but because they're friend was hurt by him. Luffy would have absolutely no problem stealing a boat if thats what it took to achieve his dream.

Zoro doesn’t fight Kuina because he hates her, he fights her because he wants to beat her, and to Kuina, that is a form of respect and also something to respect, the same way Zoro wanted to beat Mihawk simply for being the best, which earned him Mihawk’s respect. Somebody striving to surpass you was something Kuina cherished, and the fact that one day, Zoro would inevitably do so, not because he fought to surpass her, but because of biology, was unfair, which is why Zoro giving his all to beat her meant so much to her

One thing about Zoro and Kuina:
Zoro was stronger than everyone else in that dojo except kuina. They dueled a lot I don’t remember the number but I think it was close to or above 100 and Zoro never won. They had their promise and she died with Zoro having never beaten her. I feel like a few of the character dynamics just got lost in translation due to cut portions that only prior fans would know.

one thing I have to say about the comedy. Oda, the mangaka, is a MASTER at his writing style. I've never seen someone write an emotional scene, interject with a quick joke, and then continue on with the emotions and make it fit so perfectly. It shouldnt work but yet it does and it happened more than once that I cried, then burst out laughing and when I turned the page I immediately cried again. One Piece is a pretty crazy experience xD.
The Live Action also changed some themes of the show wich is the part that annoyed me the most. I really dont know what the showrunners were thinking but here are some examples.
1. In the LA Luffy says "I'm a different kind of pirate" multiple times, I dont think he every said that once in the entire 1113 chapters of the manga. Manga-Luffy wouldnt even think about something like that :D he is way to simple minded.
2. This is the one that annoys me the most. Manga-Luffy cares alot about what people DECIDE to do with their lives and he really doesnt like the idea of someone being born a certain way and having no influence over it. I really dont understand why they kept hammering at the idea that Luffy was just simply born this way. Luffy never once said "I was just born a pirate". He always says "I've decided". Either they dont really understand the character or they just wanted to force in their own views into the show.
This might just be a me thing because I've become very allergic to any sort of modern political messaging in media after they butchered basically every good IP there is over the last couple years, so when I look at those changed it seems to me that someone wanted to sneak in some "born this way" messages

About Zoro and Kuina, in the Anime the sensei gave her sword to him because of their shared dream to become the strongest. Zoro took her sword to become the strongest for them both
