op/la is a really good case study for adapting a work while engaging meaningfully with a quarter of its themes

#or #like im having fun it's obvious the writers Care about the source material but what did you do to these people #op as like. A Work is really invested in community and opla has almost 0 of that. thats the big one #and like the changes they made to nami's backstory are SO bonkers to me. i feel like it was an attempt to give her more agency #but it didnt work because what you've effectively done is written a town that decided to turn their backs on a child #like no joke i think about genzo wearing that pinwheel on his hat for all eight years every day of my life #we;re not even gonna TALK about what they did to garp. grarpa. my beloathed but not like that #or that fucking. BARTENDER. imagine fucking snitching on COOK CAPTAIN ZEFF'S KID that man is DEAD NOW #(i complain about the don krieg fight CONSTANTLY but it MEANS something to the narrative and he's GONE) #also as a side note that isnt really a side note the fact that they cut hatchi entirely is SO weird he's like. THE guy #AND LUFFY.... they took away his DUPLICITY. his INTENTIONAL RUDENESS. he has the uncanny ability to laser focus on ppls #Problems and if he likes you he'll be rude in an intentional way and if he hates you he'll be rude in a Different intentional way
