I was thinking. Manga wise what do you feel the saddest moment was and how did you think the anime did it justice? The thing is. Anime if done well if the music is really good can bring out emotions even more with the addition of that visual scene, but it can also fail.
If we take as an example Naruto, Naruto was a good manga, at the begining for me it was more then good but then it fell down a couple of notches but music, sad scenes, Naruto covered those extremely well I have to admit that.
But how is OP doing in that sense?
Saddest moment in One Piece
-
-
The saddest manga moment for me was child Nico Robin fleeing Ohara on row boat, laughing in the same way Jaguar D. Saul does.
"Dereshi, Derishi, Dereshishishishi"
The anime perfectly portrayed the moment with the flames in the background, the sadness in the voice actors voice etc etc. It was really tragic to be honest. I usually don't get that saddened by fiction but that evoked some strong emotions from me, don't know why though.
-
Going of going merry.
-
Saddest moment was what happened to Trebol in the last chapter. In more ways than one.
-
Sanji farewell to Zeff.
-
Let's see… Hiruluk's death was excellently portrayed in the anime. And so was, in my humble opinion, Binks Sake is also very well done. I think music brings a lot to both of those scenes.
-
My top 4:
Dr Hiriluk calls Chopper his son before sacrificing himself. "What a wonderful life I've lived!'
Merry's goodbye. "I wanted to take you all a little further."
Bellemere hugs Nami with her crippled, crushed arm before being killed. I've always thought that particular bit of symbolism never got enough praise. "Nojiko, Nami, I love you."
Brook sings Binks Sake for the last time with the Rumbar Pirates. "What's the matter? Our jolly band is down to a quartet. A trio. A duet. A solo. Why, leaving only the accompaniment?"
Manga or anime, those scenes always get me.

idk for me for instance OP has some really nice adventure music to cover manga story and good fighting music but doesnt reach naruto in sadness soundtracks
OP spundtrack i really like is:
Luffy VS ratchet round 1
-
Luffy loosing his crew. This might sound kinda of psychopathic but i really enjoy watching Luffy break down.
-
Plenty of sad moments, I would say Merry funeral and Brook scene with the crewmates dying one by one, plenty of other both old and new but those ones were super sad to me, I looked like Usopp during Merry funeral reading/watching these.
-
When kid Wiper asks the elder : "If we ring the bell now, do you think Norland will hear it ? "
-
I think the saddest moment for me was Nami and Robin's backstories. For Robin she lost her home, love ones, and any semblance of a normal life. All because the government was afraid she could read the Polygnths. This proved to me that the government is ruthless and beyond a doubt evil rather than simply corrupt.

It's subjective, and I would disagree.
As for the sad moments, I find going back to reality from a happy flashback to be the most heart breaking thing.
So, for me it would be Ace learning "manners" from Makino followed by Luffy's comment on Ace and a cruel comeback to reality. -
Going Merry's Goodbye and Ace's death.
-
Tears of Garp… one of the saddest moments yet.
-
there are a lot… but for me probably Ace crying about Sabos "death"
-
Chopper hands down…
!
-
Chopper's backstory is the saddest in my opinion. At least the others were human. Chopper got really lucky to find the strawhats. But when his mentor died i cried.
-
When Nami's crying her eyes out and ripping her arm apart to get rid of the Arlong mark, and Luffy stops her, keeps the mugiwara on her head and calls her a nakama. Also the part when he's destroying the maps that she made for arlong for so long. It meant waaaay too much for Nami and Luffy was there for her even though she's just "betrayed" him.
Robin's crying after leaving ohara was sad too, but Nami's story's what really got me into OP -
Robin's backstory
Otohime's part of the FI flashback
Carue being frozen in Drum Island's waters
Nami's backstoryThey're all pretty heartbreaking.
-
Brooke spend 50 years floating on a broken ship with only the remains of his dead crew for company, just think about that.
-
Luffy beating himself up over aces death and declaring how weak he is. Tough pill to swallow
-
Robin rowing away from a burning Ohara is my top choice.
-
For me manga and anime wise, definitely the Going Merry funeral. It's eyewatering sad everytime I see it. The Strawhats lost some of their members and I don't want this to happen ever again.
-
Pretty much all of Brook's backstory. But especially the scene where they all do a one last song before falling one after another.
-
That excruciating one month hiatus, good lord those were tough times :sad:
-
I'd say it's a tossup between Luffy's breakdown on Saboady and the conclusion of the duel between Luffy and Usopp.
-
Sanji's bounty picture… Hands down.
-
Going merry's death.
-
Rumba pirates' death.
It's already a really sad moment per se,especially with the whole "last song" thing..but what makes it the saddest of OP's moments is that while all the oher sad moments had some kind of redeeming value..either being inspirational for other people,heroic deeds or just getting a "revenge" late in the story,the rumba's demise has none of that,they just failed in their journey,never accomplished their dreams and just died in the fog,disappearing from history.
And this in a story like onepiece's,that is all about the dream of people,even passed through generations..that it's especially sad to me -
In no particular order:
- Hiruluk's death segment
- Corazon's death segment
- Nami's backstory
- Robin's backstory
- Ace crying about Sabo in the flashback
- Ace's death in Luffy's arms
The saddest
- When Garp comes back home. Dadan beating Garp and gets interrupted, saying that it hurts him more than anyone. Dadan then reiterates that Luffy is hurt the most out of anyone. Makino remembers the flashback of the brother's bond. Heartbreaking, and fuck Garp. I loved him until he chose duty over family. I'm going to watch this scene again now.
-
Rumba pirates' death and Von Clay's death

Bon clay is not death, he's the new queen of the newkama in Impel Down

Aces death has me crying no lie

Ace's death was by far the saddest moment in the series. I have a dead big brother too, so it cuts deep, I got no last words from him though, so I just keep on imagining, ''what if it had been like this?'' Even so, I think that moment would have been almost unreadable because of how sad it is almost no matter what relation Luffy had to Ace.
Bellemere is a close runner up. I remember having watched it on 4kids where they digged themselves into a superdeep plothole by claiming Arlong imprisoned Bellemere. So when I read the real version after, it was without a doubt the most stressful and shocking moment I had yet encountered in any medium at that age. Since then however, I've watched too many series, with too many sad death scenes, not to mention, Ace's death in One Piece sort of overshadowed my memory of it, but her death still give me uncomfortable chills and I can't read it without tearing up.

It was a very sad moment indeed. (And pretty frustrating)
-
I think its Usopp at his most lowest points especially during the Water 7 arc.
-
I bawled at the Going Merry Funeral. I even felt a bit sad when Whitebeard died. No other moments really strike me that I remember getting sad over. I know I did get a little teary at points but can't remember them.
(Ace's death didn't affect me even though it should have been a pivotal sad moment. I knew it was coming when I started the Marinford Arc (I was not aware of Whitebeard's death) and there were some excellent moments in that arc but I had to trawl through so much tedium that I was willing Ace to hurry up and die so when he did I was like Thank god for that.)
