Another One Piece recap, one of the older ones. Unlike the newly produced ones, this one doesn’t remake the animation. It’s a classic cut and paste style of recap. So a classic question regarding recaps comes into mind – why even watch it? For this one, if you want to rewatch the origins of straw piece, some of the very first arcs, but also don’t want to just straight out rewatch the episodes, here’s some best of moments for that. Sure, plenty of these are great, but they also require the context of the story to fully appreciate. The moments being great also doesn’t make therecap great, as recap is not the origin of the stories.I haven't noticed any added content, so either there wasn't any or it was really minor, easy to overlook.nnThis isn’t a recap movie for which watching it might work as a substitute for watching the series, this is basically a clip exhibition to reminiscent about. So, as usual for recaps, don’t watch it if you don’t know the full story, and no need to watch it unless you want to refresh your memory of some moments. Or you’re a completionist. -

I think this is probably the best One Piece recap there is, what makes it that is the sheer amount of content it covers and the fact that it keeps the nostalgic flair as strong and lively as ever. I could only make it through with a runny nose and teary eyes, unbelievably nostalgic and true to its root. The recap starts with a cover-story-like skit before it delves into the snippets of each of the Straw Hat arcs, snipping from here and there with a charming Manga promo in between every transition. One Piece really changed throughout the years and this feels more like adocumentary than a recap.nnThere was also a weirdly placed promo for the Karakuri Castle movie (movie 7) before the Alabasta Robin part, but okay, probably a reminder that I should rewatch the One Piece movies for God knows what time now.
