Western Echidna same, I just see that moment getting crapped on a lot by elitist sub only viewers and say that Robin’s english va didnt covey any emotion. Frustrates me so much!
@@pwner332 for me this scene conveyed even more emotion in English, the raspiness of her voice really shows how much she’s struggling to breathe as she cries her eyes out.
Artjom! Kinda unrelated to the comment but am I the only person who considers water 7 and enies lobby the same arc. I know they’re seperate but they’re way too connected for me to consider them seperate personally
@@theprocrastinator6813 yeah, wano is too big of an arc for toei to not give a shit about it. I kind of hope that it will bring a big change in artwork, like DBS Movie did co compared to DBS series. Long running anime desperately needs simplified artwork like that.
Lets face it... The crocus gag works even better afterwards, when you find out that he was on rogers crew... AND that he probably could have destroyed the strawhats easily.
He casually took out a Sea King Squid in his introduction and was shown as an active combatant in Strong World OVA (movie tie in an non-entirely cannon, but meh). Plus Buggy was 12 when he sailed with Roger, and stuck around East Blue for 20 years after Rogers death; unlike Shanks. Every tidbit of info about Rogers crew indicates to most of his crew being comprised of monsters.
I love this top 5 so so much. Sogeking's introduction is pure brilliance, Merry's funeral and Bink's sake are two of the most beautiful and emotionally heart-wrenching moments of the series, and 'I want to live' is the one scene that got me hooked on one piece in the first place. A damm fine list.
@@GrandLineReview sooo...when dose part 3 come out? :P Think you misset Gear 4 (both of them), Luffy singing on Skypiea, Enels reaction, Bon Clay "vs" Magellanbon (even in hell there is a blooming flower of friendship), all impressions of the straw hats, Frankys dance, Vinsmoke sailormoon transformation, Big Mom introducing song Tottoland. That´s just the top of my head :) Love your videos!
Going Merry's funeral nailed my belief that one piece is the best anime of all time(yeah despite its imperfection)... Damn.. I cried hard on a freaking boat...
Technicaly they set her on fire and sank the Going Merry to the bottom of the sea while she was still alive, I know the ship was broke in half but if she was Alive before then she was still alive. The ship could of been recovered and brought back to Water Seven. She wouldn't of set sail again or gone to Sea. But if a person gets parrallised you don't kill them.
@@michaeldmingo9454 she was dead though... a ship that cannot sail is dead... it is like a person who cannot breath is dead... if a ship is only a display it is not alive it is a taxidermy...
I get what you are saying, but she ( Going Merry ) was still talking and if a person is not breathing they have an artificial lung for that. I get that she can't sail, but thats like someone who can't walk. Not dead
I can't believe that the scene of Nami in Arlong Park where she's stabbing herself and then asks luffy to help her that it wasn't included in this list or in the previous one, for me it's the best scene where the anime has surpassed the manga, it's full of emotion and a great pace, and the voices just elevate the scene to new levels, I like the Brook's scene like any other, but really number one? I can't say that I'm not disappointed.
Merry's death was sad, but I couldn't actually see myself crying...until Mother Sea started playing. That song, THAT SONG man. It's easily my favorite piece of music in the One Piece OST for the single reason that every time I hear it or it's played in the anime (which unfortunately/fortunately doesn't play nearly as often anymore nowadays) I choke up. It's a gorgeous piece of music and it made me burst into tears upon queue during Merry's death
Both dub and sub version of I want to live with robin is so moving Hands down no questions asked “i want to live”is one of the most moving emotional and powerful moment in one piece
The Sniper King opening theme really caught me off guard the first time I saw it, I'm shocked that it isn't in the Manga. the scene where the Rumbar Pirates die one by one was so morbid for me.
My personal favorite moment from the anime is definitely Raizou is Safe, that song that plays is beautiful (I think it’s called The Bond between the Samurai and the Minks) and the voice actors of Duke and Nekomemushi, and especially Usopp deserve endless praise
As much as I love and adore the performance of Robin's VA during Eines Lobby, I have to give credit to Brook's VA, Shigeru Nagashima, as well! Not only is his rendition of Bink's Sake amazingly touching and wonderful to listen to, but the cry he lets out at the end of Thriller Bark as he breaks into tears after finding out that Laboon is still waiting for him felt so incredibly real and touching to me!
The thing I always forget about the last song of the Rumbar Pirates is that they're recording it so that the song can be played for Laboon some day. I think Brook is the character I want to know the most about, we know nothing about why he became a pirate (before the era of Roger) or his life before then, we know very little about the Rumbar Pirate's adventures on the Grand Line except they interacted with Sky Island in some way or someone who'd been there. Sanji and Luffy both got new flashbacks and backstory post-marineford, I'd love them to do the same with Brook.
I would say one of the best moments in the anime is when Luffy beats Lucci. Everything is working together in that scene from the animation to the music to the voice performance. Luffy screaming in desperation as he pushes past his own ceiling is absolutely magical. Not to mention it is probably the closest Luffy has come to losing at that time in the series which makes him all the more desperate.
Got a couple suggestions maybe for the lower numbers, both escenes with zoro: The Rashomon at the Umi resha's chasing The final clash with Mr. 1 in Alabasta
Even nowadays, after a long time reading and watching one piece, merry's funeral makes me cry. It is one of the most beautiful and also meaningful moments in one piece , that song, uffff, it takes me every moment.
This should be interesting because I see so many people shitting on the anime for the most dumb reasons. I read the manga, but I can tell that the One Piece anime could be much worse. At least it's faithful. Berserk fans have it worse. Imagine being a Berserk fan and your only adaption are the shitty 2016/17 series or the incomplete 97 anine that skips out stuff. Or have those garbage looking CGI movies.
The problem is the anime currently is not good. Every now and again it does a good job. But Toei shot themselves in the foot. Since Dressrossa, they started making it so it was one, maybe 2 chapters per episode. This causes the pace to slow down to a crawl. Also the animation side got the Dragonball Super treatment with a budget cut. So the animation, visuals, and sound are not not as good as it use to be. I love both the manga and anime, but the anime has really dropped on quality
@@FeliX-TobiYahs-C to me the worst I have seen is during Whole Cake. When the Vinsmokes were fighting Big Mom's family and Ichiji fights Katakuri. You then see Katakuri holding Ichiji and it looks atrocious. Proportions are waaaaay off for Katakuri. And it sucks cause they can make good animation. Look at Pedro's sacrifice
Suprisingly, after reading the manga for the first time after seeing countless time the anime, i find the Going Merry's Funeral even better in the manga, the way Oda drew that last page of Merry going in flames while saying goodbye has something that the anime can't do and directly hit me. For the rest i completely agree with you, especially Binks sake, i think we can add Pika's voice here, because this joke work only really if you hear the voice.
Binks Sake was a profound moment for me in how music was used to set the situation as a joyful one in how Brook found a new home in the reflection of how he lost his old one Binks Sake. On that note I feel Big Mom's introduction to Totoland musical was just as powerful and many times more haunting through the anime that the manga wasn't able to properly convey.
Both lists and no mention of Hiriluk's death? It's a simple, but powerful use of dialogue and pacing, set to a beautiful rendition of _Ave Maria._ The cuts between Hiriluk, Dalton's tearful questions about the will of the country and Chopper desperately trying to reach his only friend in time is beautiful, and hearing Hiriluk's seiyuu talk about how people and places only die when they are forgotton immortalized the true spirit of the story for me. It's a great moment of the anime that I wish got more recognition.
I watched both videos hoping you included it but you didnt but Luffy falling into despair after seeing his entire crew get blown away by Kuma completly destroyed me and the anime shows the emotion so well with just Luffy's VA with no BGM
i just love the german version of the sogeking song, and also the fact that sogeking sings this song multiple after his introduction when he feels like he has won etc.
Honestly for the robin part, i watched the subbed and dubbed versions and i can safely say: The dubbed version of her saying "i want to live" was way better in my opinion
I hear that hiriluk's introduction is done much better in the anime, making his checkup of the person use more comedy, making hiriluk more likable, which made his death scene more impactful. Also the music choice was so wonderful there.
I think the anime did part of zoro vs kuma better. Specifically when kuma sends the small portion of the pain bubble at zoro. The color distortion and the voice actors screams were great followed by him sounding genuinely hurt after
Number 1 and 2 were even better in the English dub imo the voice actors for Brook and Robin absolutely killed it! Which leads me to my "moments the English dub was better request, with #1 obviously being Franky's intro.
Recently happened so the "no duh" as to why it wasn't on the list but the Luffy and Zoro hug when they were reunited in Wano. Then again I'm just a sucker for hugs in anime in general because they just capture the force of them when manga cannot.
I haven't gotten to the Wano Arc yet (binge-watching through Crunchyroll first), but just finished the Dressrosa Arc, and during the initial "reunion" of Luffy and Sabo I kept thinking, "this isn't... well, Luffy-ish." Then I got to the episode where Sabo tells of it and... yep, there it is, pure Luffy as he nearly suffocates his long-lost brother in his unbridled joy.
You know, given that SuperMechaFrieza is going through Thriller Bark right now, Bink's Sake is definitely one of those moments I can't wait for her to react to, much like Merry's funeral to the other heartrending scenes leading up to the time-skip.
As of now (act 3 of Wano) I would very much like to include the following: Luffy vs the Pacifista - Manga can't always fully portray the speed of character feats which imo is often more impressive than displaying strength, and the anime showing Luffy effortlessly dodging an enemy he was previously dwarfed by and dunked on makes it all the more satisfying. God Usopp - Having the vocal performance really accentuate the parts all the gladiators hear made this moment absolutely hilarious to me Bringing Oden and Roger to Life in General - The quirks of Oden and Roger through the power of the anime were something I more fully enjoyed than the manga. Which brings me to my final choice and needs absolutely zero explanation: "He laughed"
Just watched today episode (868). Luffy vs Katakuri Conqueror's Haki should make it to next list, it looked so threatening and overwhelming. Also I am kind of glad that Charlotte Smoothie got at least a little more spotlight than in manga. Most likely her manga scene was limited to a single page due to chapter limitations.
Do you think you would ever do something similar to this but as a comparison between the english dub (funimation obviously) and the japanese version? Like what moments the dub might of done better? Its just something i thought of when i see this kind of video. This is all assuming you have seen much of the funimation dub in the first place..
I can handle the dub well enough, except... Luffy... His voice is so grating on me. He sounds exactly like Ash Ketchum... I just can’t. The others are fine, but Luffy... /sigh
I love the video & the anime has touch my heart. I hope that when the manga reaches a Good Ending to One Piece then the anime will catch up to the point in both sub & dub.
No Gear fourth (Bounce-man) introduction? I’m a manga only fan and had a friend bring that scene to my attention. Genuinely blown away by how well they handled that transformation.
I think a minor one is Charlotte Smoothie chasing after the Thousand Sunny during the Whole Cake Island arc. In the manga, it wasn't made entirely clear what exactly Smoothie was doing, she launches what looks like a Mihawk-style flying slash and then cuts to her on the ship where she is inexplicably several times larger than she already was. Someone actually asked Oda in an SBS what that was all about, so Oda said that she used her Shibo Shibo no Mi abilities to basically suck the moisture from other people into herself which is what made her so big and then shoot it out as an attack, which is what that slash attack was. The anime shows her doing exactly that, stabbing her sword into dudes and sucking the fluids out of them and growing larger. Also, the way the slashes are drawn and animated in the anime make them look distinct from typical flying slashes to differentiate them.
The 2 second clip of Rayleigh coming out of nowhere and deflecting kizaru’s kick to zoro is definitely honorable mention for me. Gave me goosebumps. Must’ve rewound and rewatched 50 times. Such a short short bit of great animation sandwiched by overly long reaction stills probably helped, but still.
I'd say the flashbacks for ever Straw Hat are also superior in the anime, at least their original iterations (as we know some have been revisited and reanimated). While the animation itself does vary in each respective flashback, the pacing and voice acting really sells each tragedy experienced by the crew when they were young. Luffy's whirlwind of being a Shanks' fanboy and causing his idol to lose his own arm. Zoro's previously hilarious training montages becoming an increasingly overboiling pot of his repressed grief. Even the simplest flashback, when Merry recounts the moment of Usopp losing his mother, is pretty damn touching with the voicework as our favorite sniper commits to telling his #1 lie for years to come after becoming an orphan. Then of course you have Nami and Robin's flashbacks which are just spirit-crushingly sad seeing the horrible atrocities both girls had to witness.
2:20: "It could be even considered filler". YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! I know I will never get a moment like this again which makes me love it more. Good video!
The anime used a leitmotif of We Are for Merry's funeral. I legit cried again when I checked out the scene after reading the manga version. Number one for me.
The walk to Arlong Park is also better in the anime imo. The combination of the soundtrack and the building hype around the Straw Hats as the island's last hope is amazing
I go and listen to Bunks Sake at least once a month. You should've added when Zoro told Luffy to tighten up and get serious on Punk Hazard. They were able to expand on that moment in the abine
The recent episodes with luffy vs katakuri are seeming to have a big step up in animation. Hopefully it can keep at a quality like that but it's most likely only because they want to make the fight even cooler than it already is with nice animation
Movie 9 definitely upgraded Drum Island, imo. Not the inclusion of Franky, Robin and the Sunny (though that's not a detriment either), but specifically the animation, the music, Ikue Otani's acting and the fights. Luffy vs Mushroo isn't the greatest ever, but it's far better than the fights against Wapol and his men in the original story.
It was more a parody of Tokusatsu series, of which Toei is probably the biggest producer of. Also I feel special notice should be given to Sonny Strait having a lot of fun in the dub version. I was almost certain they would have left that in japanese given how they had given up on dubbing the OPs by Ennies Lobby but that was almost as delightful
I agree with your choices. Although i am an anime only viewer of one piece, i cant imagine the manga hitting them feels the way the anime did in these scenes. The sounds, art, and montage give it a nice touch.
You should give it a go. I'll say this, when the anime gets things right, it does transcend the manga because of everything you've said. However it more often than not fails to live up to the level of artwork, framing, pacing and impact of the manga especially in the post-timeskip era.
I cried so much watching the Going Merry and during the Rumbar Pirates Last Song together. My wife held me. And we cried together. I really love this anime :D

Lets face it...
The crocus gag works even better afterwards, when you find out that he was on rogers crew... AND that he probably could have destroyed the strawhats easily.
the gag literally makes you think there was gonna be a fight with the crew lmao
He was just a doctor not a fighter as far as we know
Nah. We don't even know if he was strong. Just bc he was on rogers crew doesn't automatically make him a strong character
I mean... so was Buggy
He casually took out a Sea King Squid in his introduction and was shown as an active combatant in Strong World OVA (movie tie in an non-entirely cannon, but meh). Plus Buggy was 12 when he sailed with Roger, and stuck around East Blue for 20 years after Rogers death; unlike Shanks.

Luffy's final Gatling Gun on Lucci. The animation was actually top to bottom perfect.
It is indeed one of my most memorable moments personally.
The Sniper King opening theme really caught me off guard the first time I saw it, I'm shocked that it isn't in the Manga. the scene where the Rumbar Pirates die one by one was so morbid for me.
Damn I Clicked so that I would have laugh but, stringing Merry Go, Robin and, Brook like that.... I couldn't stop crying for 3 minutes.
The next one has to include the walk to arlong park!
“Those are the men who are going to save this village”.... so good.
And Zoro's moment when he takes Luffy's pain away where the voice actor and sound and visual effects elevated this scene in my opinion.
After 2 years still no part 3
What about when jimbei tells luffy what he still has after the paramount war and ace's passing? That's hearthwrenching imo
Another great Jimbei moment is when he gives Luffy his blood at the end of fishman island, and all you hear is the narrator talking it's so well done
My personal favorite moment from the anime is definitely Raizou is Safe, that song that plays is beautiful (I think it’s called The Bond between the Samurai and the Minks) and the voice actors of Duke and Nekomemushi, and especially Usopp deserve endless praise
What about Luffy going gear fourth for the first time?
Or Kaido dropping from the sky?

I think the anime did part of zoro vs kuma better. Specifically when kuma sends the small portion of the pain bubble at zoro. The color distortion and the voice actors screams were great followed by him sounding genuinely hurt after
Also the scene when Luffy said '' it's slow '' after 2Y in Sabaody Archipelago ... it was much better in the anime *-* !
I wasn't warned that this episode would make me feel
I think one moment that also could've been included is Luffy remembering his crew after Ace's death.
Number 1 and 2 were even better in the English dub imo the voice actors for Brook and Robin absolutely killed it!
Which leads me to my "moments the English dub was better request, with #1 obviously being Franky's intro.
I love this channel.
This channel loves you.
BEST USER NAME EVER!
Me too
Recently happened so the "no duh" as to why it wasn't on the list but the Luffy and Zoro hug when they were reunited in Wano. Then again I'm just a sucker for hugs in anime in general because they just capture the force of them when manga cannot.
I haven't gotten to the Wano Arc yet (binge-watching through Crunchyroll first), but just finished the Dressrosa Arc, and during the initial "reunion" of Luffy and Sabo I kept thinking, "this isn't... well, Luffy-ish." Then I got to the episode where Sabo tells of it and... yep, there it is, pure Luffy as he nearly suffocates his long-lost brother in his unbridled joy.
You know, given that SuperMechaFrieza is going through Thriller Bark right now, Bink's Sake is definitely one of those moments I can't wait for her to react to, much like Merry's funeral to the other heartrending scenes leading up to the time-skip.
the reason i love this channel so much is the fact he explains all most everything within short period of time!!!!!
That's the aim! ;D
As of now (act 3 of Wano) I would very much like to include the following:
Luffy vs the Pacifista - Manga can't always fully portray the speed of character feats which imo is often more impressive than displaying strength, and the anime showing Luffy effortlessly dodging an enemy he was previously dwarfed by and dunked on makes it all the more satisfying.
God Usopp - Having the vocal performance really accentuate the parts all the gladiators hear made this moment absolutely hilarious to me
Bringing Oden and Roger to Life in General - The quirks of Oden and Roger through the power of the anime were something I more fully enjoyed than the manga. Which brings me to my final choice and needs absolutely zero explanation:
"He laughed"
Brook's tragic backstory is still the most heartbreaking in my opinion. I can't watch/read it without bawling
T____T
Just watched today episode (868). Luffy vs Katakuri Conqueror's Haki should make it to next list, it looked so threatening and overwhelming.
Also I am kind of glad that Charlotte Smoothie got at least a little more spotlight than in manga. Most likely her manga scene was limited to a single page due to chapter limitations.
Do you think you would ever do something similar to this but as a comparison between the english dub (funimation obviously) and the japanese version? Like what moments the dub might of done better? Its just something i thought of when i see this kind of video. This is all assuming you have seen much of the funimation dub in the first place..
Kyle Sanderson dub is🐐
Luffy is the only thing wrong with the English Dubb in my opinion.
I really like the FUNimation dub myself and would love to see a video like that
I can handle the dub well enough, except... Luffy... His voice is so grating on me. He sounds exactly like Ash Ketchum... I just can’t. The others are fine, but Luffy... /sigh
I love the video & the anime has touch my heart.
I hope that when the manga reaches a Good Ending to One Piece
then the anime will catch up to the point in both sub & dub.
Sidney Williams That would be a dream come true
Should've also given a mention to English Dubbed version of Bink's Sake since the song was awesome
If this video came out this week instead of last then Kata/Luffy Conquerer’s Haki clash woulda made it
No Gear fourth (Bounce-man) introduction? I’m a manga only fan and had a friend bring that scene to my attention.
Genuinely blown away by how well they handled that transformation.
I think a minor one is Charlotte Smoothie chasing after the Thousand Sunny during the Whole Cake Island arc. In the manga, it wasn't made entirely clear what exactly Smoothie was doing, she launches what looks like a Mihawk-style flying slash and then cuts to her on the ship where she is inexplicably several times larger than she already was. Someone actually asked Oda in an SBS what that was all about, so Oda said that she used her Shibo Shibo no Mi abilities to basically suck the moisture from other people into herself which is what made her so big and then shoot it out as an attack, which is what that slash attack was. The anime shows her doing exactly that, stabbing her sword into dudes and sucking the fluids out of them and growing larger. Also, the way the slashes are drawn and animated in the anime make them look distinct from typical flying slashes to differentiate them.
The 2 second clip of Rayleigh coming out of nowhere and deflecting kizaru’s kick to zoro is definitely honorable mention for me. Gave me goosebumps. Must’ve rewound and rewatched 50 times. Such a short short bit of great animation sandwiched by overly long reaction stills probably helped, but still.
Just the mention of Robin screaming she wants to live gives me gosebumps.
Damn the feels in the Water7-saga is many
I'd say the flashbacks for ever Straw Hat are also superior in the anime, at least their original iterations (as we know some have been revisited and reanimated). While the animation itself does vary in each respective flashback, the pacing and voice acting really sells each tragedy experienced by the crew when they were young. Luffy's whirlwind of being a Shanks' fanboy and causing his idol to lose his own arm. Zoro's previously hilarious training montages becoming an increasingly overboiling pot of his repressed grief. Even the simplest flashback, when Merry recounts the moment of Usopp losing his mother, is pretty damn touching with the voicework as our favorite sniper commits to telling his #1 lie for years to come after becoming an orphan. Then of course you have Nami and Robin's flashbacks which are just spirit-crushingly sad seeing the horrible atrocities both girls had to witness.
2:20: "It could be even considered filler". YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
I know I will never get a moment like this again which makes me love it more.
Good video!
The anime used a leitmotif of We Are for Merry's funeral. I legit cried again when I checked out the scene after reading the manga version. Number one for me.
I’m not sure what it’s like in the manga, but one of my favorite scenes in the anime is Ace saying 「ありがとう」like that voice crack is EVERYTHING
U forgot one major moment from lots of arcs in One Piece anime - THE WALKS!
How about the CLIMB tho!
you do a good job at making these videos! love it.
This guy deserves more subs then he has
The walk to Arlong Park is also better in the anime imo. The combination of the soundtrack and the building hype around the Straw Hats as the island's last hope is amazing
The Franky House walk was fire, too. It’s always dope to see “business” Chopper.
Also the fact your vids are all composed of 99% anime scene pictures. Thats also helpful haha. Lowkey would be lame with the manga pics
The Sogeking part is not a filler, you can consider it as "a story yet to be told", he lives in your heart for now.
The only reason I prefer anime is that I can understand the story or dialogues better (with the help of colors, animations, sounds).
You're the best one piece source without cringe. I dont know how you dont have more subs.
I go and listen to Bunks Sake at least once a month. You should've added when Zoro told Luffy to tighten up and get serious on Punk Hazard. They were able to expand on that moment in the abine
If you do a Part 3, please be sure to include the ascent to Skypeia.
The recent episodes with luffy vs katakuri are seeming to have a big step up in animation. Hopefully it can keep at a quality like that but it's most likely only because they want to make the fight even cooler than it already is with nice animation
Movie 9 definitely upgraded Drum Island, imo. Not the inclusion of Franky, Robin and the Sunny (though that's not a detriment either), but specifically the animation, the music, Ikue Otani's acting and the fights. Luffy vs Mushroo isn't the greatest ever, but it's far better than the fights against Wapol and his men in the original story.
YYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSS
I completely agree! Brooks story is the saddest to me, I got chills when you said it was #1.
I started crying just thinking of I want to live and the merry.
It was more a parody of Tokusatsu series, of which Toei is probably the biggest producer of.
Also I feel special notice should be given to Sonny Strait having a lot of fun in the dub version. I was almost certain they would have left that in japanese given how they had given up on dubbing the OPs by Ennies Lobby but that was almost as delightful
Keep doing more of these vids!! I thought you'd add the luffy Usopp fight.
I agree with your choices. Although i am an anime only viewer of one piece, i cant imagine the manga hitting them feels the way the anime did in these scenes. The sounds, art, and montage give it a nice touch.
You should give it a go. I'll say this, when the anime gets things right, it does transcend the manga because of everything you've said. However it more often than not fails to live up to the level of artwork, framing, pacing and impact of the manga especially in the post-timeskip era.
I cried so much watching the Going Merry and during the Rumbar Pirates Last Song together. My wife held me. And we cried together. I really love this anime :D
Moments with someone singing.
Ex: Luffy singing in Skypeia, Binks Sake etc.
The Robin scene is the best. I get that cold shiver in my back and neck every time I see it. It's so dam powerful.
