      That One Piece was not gotten by Toei, but taken up by another company? This would mean different animation, different music, and different voices. IMO I would probably not want One Piece done by anyone else, but I wish that One Piece had better animation a lot of times. Here is an example of how another comapny would do it-



      The quality of the animation is much better, I really like it. But, I feel that the music and drawings from the Toei one matches One Piece more. Luffy's voice is PERFECT in the Toei version, but I could get used to that voice.

      But, what do you say?

      "Yo. When do you think people die? When their heart is pierced by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! People die….when they are forgotten. THIS HAS TRULY BEEN A WONDERFUL LIFE!!!"-Dr.Hiluluk

        The quality is most likely partly better because it's an OVA and the first One Piece OVA at that, so they're bound to put more effort into it.

        Personally, I like the job Toei's done. Although their edits are very frustrating, the voices match perfectly and the animation is very close to the original.

          I've never seen this OVA before. Quite interesting and the characters voices sound very similar to Toei's. It has different sound effects (Street fighter Super fx) and has great voices. Feels different without having all the DBZ sound effects but in a good way. I love this version of One PIece as well.

            No… Toei is an incredible company, and around Jaya Arc, they really saw the potential of this series, and made it incredible. And every voice actor I've heard in One Piece is brilliant.

              I like that Enemy Crab guy. He'd make a decent filler villian in the OP manga.

                Yeah, if Toei made just a one-shot of One Piece, the quality would also be much better (take the movies, for instance) but lengthy series like One Piece require a more budgeted animation, or else they have to cut the series down and end it prematurely. Not that Toei are the ONLY company that can do a lengthy series, and I have heard a lot of criticism lately about how Toei fired all their experienced animators, but overall I think they do a decent job with it, I just wish their animation was more consistent like it used to be.

                  I agree 100%. Still, I think Viz version is neat tho.

                      Just watched the OVA, and while it was very entertaining and enjoyable, my original point still stands.

                        If it was with any other company it would have already had a filler ending or just ended. Toei is #1 for OP and thats that.

                          Is filler something you can blame on the animators (Toei, Viz etc)? Or is does that blame pertain to the manga? Who's to blame when the anime catches up with the manga?

                              This was the first japanese one piece episode i had ever seen and my first K-F download ^_^. I did like this OVA very very much, The animimation was awesome and i love the music (SAXAPHONE FTW!!!), I would rather have whoever made this do the one piece anime. And the voice acting was very good and the anime`s va is very close to it.

                                this may sound stupid, but…

                                maybe the voice actors in the OVA are the sameones in the "Toei" version..
                                just trying to get the right voice nailed on?
                                or before?

                                runs and hides

                                      Ugh, i hate this OVA. Production IG ruined Oda's art entirely (what the hell is that Luffy?) and the One Piece soul is just.. not there. As others said, it's not fair comparing this to tv episodes. Compared to Toei movies, this is total crap. I'm glad Toei took OP, it's arguably the best company for long running series.

                                        This is very true. And if I'm not mistaken, this Zoro is the same voice actor as Bellamy. Although he is a pretty versatile actor, I think Toei got the perfect voice for Zoro. Hell, I can't think of a single voice in all of OP that I heard and specifically despised when I first heard it.

                                            This ova just doesn't feel like One Piece, it's almost as if they didn't understand it. There's nothing special there and the art/soundtrack/directing is awfully generic. Toei does much better than this in all areas IMO, let alone the chosen voices.

                                            Production IG had nothing to do with movie 6. I'm not saying it's a bad studio, but this ova was a huge miss. A good example of long running series produced by them is Prince of Tennis, which i always found to be very poorly done.

                                              I think it was really around they Jaya Arc that Toei realized what they could do. All of the Jaya Arc until 151 was just awful. Everything about it, the drawing, the script, ugh, it was just, just, AWFUL.

                                              Those episodes were boring, lifless, and poorly directed. I don't know what they were thinking. Download 'em if you want a good laugh.

                                                I've seen that OVA before. It's hard to rate. I like some aspects of the animation. Luffy seems more "rubbery" for example. However, the overall LOOK of the characters isn't that great. Ganzack was pretty lame for a One Piece villain, too. The voices I thought were fine, though I do prefer Luffy's voice on the series.

                                                  I don't really like their animation style in that OVA. Characters aren't as original looking as in Toei's version. They look somehow… too soft. They do have done better work with shading and the way characters move but that's because it's OVA. Same thing with OP-movies.

                                                  They are actually the only things which I think could be better in OP-anime. Better shading and more fluent animation, but characters are great just the way they are in the series.

                                                  I think best animation they have done is in Movie 4 and Movie 5... although movie 5 sometimes tended to be a bit too ...shiny... or how should I explain that. But... in these movies characters look like they are in the series but overall quality is much better.
                                                  Movie 6 was interesting and different and I liked that style but only in the movie. It would't suit into series.

                                                  And voices are GREAT in Toei's version. I would never change them. But... on the other hand... if OP had been taken by another company, I wouldn't have never heard these voices I love.

                                                    I prefer the color scheme used in Toei's version. Everything is kind of cheery and bright, which to me captures the One Piece vibe better and makes it really distinctive. The OVA looks a little dark and drab. Plus, some of the facial expressions seem really odd, and not in keeping with the manga's style.

                                                      The Ova doesnt give me a carefree feeling unlike the one Toei did, they chose their color very wisely to come up with a very nice and bright… but i kinda like some of the drawings of the OVA (Zoro looks like a vampire in this one though)... even though it's not really identical with the manga, it has few poorly drawn scenes
