Dude, I remember when we found out who kaido was 10 years ago. It was fighting someone on whiteboards level with one of the best designs and one of the strongest charqcters. I definitely feel like kaido met the hype and it's so good to see it in the anime finally.
I cannot in good faith put any other fight above it. It’s so perfect in so many ways. I couldn’t have asked for better! I’m happy you agree my friend 🔥🤝🏾
I'm gonna say it. I think it's handled luffys power keep to kaido well. He was defeated 3 times against Luffy but he had three power ups that expanded the lore and the the power scaling and it all made sense. You also have to give the anime credit, because although wano has had terrible pacing, the pacing of their own fight was perfect. When kaidonwas drunk in the manga we got maybe a couple of panels of him. In the anime we got to see his character come out more.
The anime did wonders for Luffy vs. Kaido and I’ll stand by that. It perfectly portrayed the epic aspect between the two - an atmosphere I say Oda captured really good too. We saw Luffy slowly reach the level of his opponent and all of it culminated in Gear 5. Just GREAT stuff.
Wrong. it is really damn good in the manga, but the anime butchered it completely for several reasons. 1. When Dragonball Super was finnished Toei's in-house animators for that IP was moved over to One Piece with no direction to adapt their art style to the new tone of the content. Which lead to a ton of glowing auras that does not belong in the One Piece universe *AT ALL* ruining how grounded the series actually is compared to other shonen (with the sole exception of extremely sparce use of a tint on haki, not the fucking light saber BS wano does). 2. Toei seems to feel that One Piece has to change its style to match popular shonen like JJK and Demon Slayer to remain popular, outsourcing a lot of scenes to artists forcing their personal spin on every single little thing making the ground explode into levitating cubes, over animating scenes giving everything flashy colors and squiggly lines with panels that should be simple and so on. Not to mention Toei's painful use of flashbacks to scenes we just saw a moment ago/the previous episode, dragging out pointless panels into oblivion, filler material that doesn't make sense and so on. No the anime was straight up garbage, read the manga if you don't want to live in a lie about what happened in that arc/fight. I get why you think the way you do; you believe One Piece is a shonen and thus should revolve around hype battles and powerups. But yet again you are wrong, One Piece is an adventure manga with battles in it, but they are *NEVER* the purpose of an arc or the story.
Yeah I do hear you, man. Toei definitely takes liberties and I won’t act like it’s a perfect adaptation by any means. I completely understand those who outright dislike the anime version of Luffy vs. Kaido - in my opinion the highs more than make up for it. I explained why I think so pretty well in this video. The manga and the anime don’t have to be seen as separate entities where one is better than the other. At the end of the day, it’s all One Piece. 👌🏾
@@DarkKingAdonis I get what you are saying, but in all honesty Toei has taken so many liberties with things that are supposed to be core themes and tones in the series, skewing and twisting so many simple scenes into something completely different that I can no longer call the anime One Piece. For instance, if you'd be anime only you'd have a super fucked up and flat out wrong view of how the world works, how different powers work and so on. A good example of this is Luffy's first "fight" with Kaido; anime only's would think that there's a dragged out back and forth with Luffy holding his own before getting knocked out, but the truth is that Luffy threw everything he had on a Kaido that never even flinched to then get one-shot in a millisecond.
I whole heartedly agree. Toei takes so many inconsistent liberties that it makes me physically cringe. They over animate to make it follow the mainstream "look" and it honestly lost the appeal of the classic one piece anime pre-timeskip. I'm not saying the pre-timeskip is gold standard of anime at all, it definitely turned some people off from giving one piece a chance due to its outdated style. And I might be biased but I think classic one piece had more of a signature personality and charm to it although it's an acquired taste. Now it looks like a copy and paste from any other shonen anime, and the pacing is horrendously bad, idk how anyone can tolerate the anime. The anime's gear 5 reveal is overrated too. It was enjoyable, but the style seems to change with each episode, and again, overly done.
These transitions are top tier🔥🔥
You seen how much work it took lol but the end result is fantastic, I’m glad you like it 😂

Man, I love your videos.
That makes me so happy 😭😭 a young man do be trying his best. Thank you for watching!
Finally!! Thank you bro!! I’ve been saying this the entire time! 🙏🏾
I cannot in good faith put any other fight above it.
It’s so perfect in so many ways. I couldn’t have asked for better! I’m happy you agree my friend 🔥🤝🏾
@@DarkKingAdonis my guy do you have Instagram?
Very good video..keep it up
Thanks a lot!
Nice vid‼️ Luffy vs. Kaido on top lmaoo
You already know!!
It’s not just one of the best if not the best fight in one piece but as of right this is the longest fight in one piece 😀.
Yes it is lol and by a good bit too 🤣
Great video, enjoyed all of it. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!

🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'd love to see a one shot of kaido living in the bowels of wano. He's found pluton and waits for it to be released.
I’ve been betting on his and Linlin’s whereabouts being revealed via cover story, assuming they’re alive of course 😂
yessir!
🤫 I told you
Kaido shoulda went drunk against gear 5
Oh man that would’ve been so fun
I need to see the Lucci fight animated before I agree lol
It’s gonna be fun but let’s be real… Luffy coasted 😂
@@DarkKingAdonisI thought so too. Def seemed like a fun fight more than anything 🤣
Can’t wait to see it animated tho 😅
@@Kaidodo-xu9qs It’s gonna be sooooo dope
Best Fight is the rework of Sanji vs Kuroobi
That fight was REALLY good lowkey. Quite underrated
