Remake Anime 'One Piece' Born from Eiichiro Oda's Regret, Guaranteed to Have Minimal Filler!

Kapanlagi.com - The remake of the anime ONE PIECE titled THE ONE PIECE has become a topic of conversation since it was first announced. This project is being handled by WIT Studio, a studio known for its top-tier visual quality. It’s no surprise that many fans had high expectations from the start.

Interestingly, this remake is not just about visual updates. According to WIT Studio's CEO, George Wada, this project was also triggered by a reflection from the creator, Eiichiro Oda, on the old anime version that has been running for over 20 years. This has led many fans to start viewing this remake from a different perspective.

Oda feels that the current generation of viewers might find it a bit difficult to connect with the early parts of the anime due to its outdated animation style and pacing. Moreover, the super long episode count could also be a "barrier" for new viewers. Therefore, this remake comes as a way to reintroduce this legendary story with a more fresh vibe that is easier to enjoy.

1. Remade with Modern Standards

One of the main reasons this remake was made is to align ONE PIECE with the animation standards of today. With increasingly advanced animation technology, this classic story will be brought back to life with more detailed, smoother visuals, and definitely more pleasing to the eye. This also makes the viewing experience feel more modern and not outdated.

In addition, this remake is also aimed at being more friendly for new audiences around the world. With a more streamlined and concise plot, THE ONE PIECE is expected to serve as a new entry point for those who have never followed it from the start. Even long-time fans may experience a different viewing sensation compared to the previous version.

One of the most interesting points of this remake is its promise to reduce filler. The old version was indeed known for having quite a few additional episodes, so the remake version will be more focused on the main story without unnecessary drama. This is quite a relief for long-time fans.

With a more organized and faster pacing, the viewing experience will also feel denser and more intense. Every important moment can feel more "impactful" without having to wait long or be distracted by filler episodes. The storyline is also expected to be more consistent from beginning to end.

3. Ready to Compete at a Global Level

With WIT Studio's track record of working on cool anime like ATTACK ON TITAN and VINLAND SAGA, this ONE PIECE remake is clearly not to be taken lightly. This project is prepared to compete at a global level with maximum visual quality and storytelling. So it's not just an ordinary remake.

In addition, Eiichiro Oda is also directly involved to ensure the final result remains true to his vision. Moreover, the collaboration with Netflix expands the audience reach even further. With all these factors, THE ONE PIECE has the potential to become one of the biggest anime projects in the future.
