if it wasn't for that iconic scene at the end, i'd say this is by far the worst episode of the entire live action, simply by what they did to the villagers of cocoyashi. i get the LA not having as much time and resources to properly adapt and develop every character from the manga there is, but the fact that they made everyone in the village completely oblivious to what nami was doing almost killed the entire thing for me. not only does it not make sense, the whole reason nojoki has those tattoos is to show solidarity with nami and making her feel less horrible about arlong forcing his brand on her after all, it also takes away a lot of the impact of the whole arc. the revelation that the villagers not only knew what nami was doing, yet never said anything as to not put any extra burden on her and make her feel like she needs to live up to villages expectations, but were also willing to fight for her despite everything, even if that meant certain death, was such a gut punch and without it the scene just doesn't feel right. still props to emily for her acting in that scene. she did an awesome job.

Yeah, wasn't a fan of all the unnecessary changes they did for this arc. The village not knowing Nami's true intentions, especially Genzo and Nojiko (who was basically Nami's only rock before the Strawhats). It just makes it seem like they're absolute buffoons who turned on her and never even bothered to think about why she did what she did. Genzo's scar from trying to protect Nami were just turned into random scars. Speaking of Genzo, they completely took out the purpose of the pinwheel. Nami's tattoo was supposed to symbolize both of her parental figures, the tangerine for Bell-mere and the pinwheel for Genzo. But they removed it and then had to make a new reason for it, which just turned it another symbolizm for Bell-mere. Nami not being kidnapped and basically forced to work for Arlong got turned into just a deal she initiated. Luffy actually caring about Nami's past was a big one that bothered me. In the manga and anime he doesn't care about that at all, all he cared about was that his friend was hurting and he was their to help them. It's all just baffling to me, especially when the show's writers were HUGE One Piece fans.

i LOVE how they literally combined both the pinwheel & tangerine symbolism into one, & the hat scene too. & well i actually prefer when live action arlong /doesn't/ accentuate his chin like as if we're going by "FB pfp rules" lmaooo

Luffy sticking around to here Nami's backstory kinda sucks, takes away a bit from the end scene since the most lovable thing about Luffy is that he doesn't need an explanation to choose to help a friend in obvious distress.

The way Oda wrote Coco village was more interesting and unique. The live action's version is definitely more generic, but there is one thing I like about it. Luffy believes in Nami despite all the evidence he shouldn't. He's not a naïve character who sees the best in everyone. He knows Alvida and Kuro are evil people, and the thought that Nami could be like them doesn't enter his mind for one second.

The Garp & Zeff scene is one of their most welcome additions!

YukoValis

the character with the most surprising development has to be helmeppo. Or helm-head as I call him. He really goes a long way from being a conceited daddys boy to an actual decent person. His development seems to mirror Koby. Naive and weak training with jerk and weak to both become stronger and better.

Doctor Geagle

For those who don't know, the reason this episode and the next one feel so mangled and off is because of a writers strike that happened while editing for them was going happening. That meant that the writers and directors were not allowed to touch them and someone else did the editing.

This is the one change i'm not that big of a fan of that the village or that her sister didn't know Nami was trying to buy the village. And the main reason is her sister's tattoo's In this version of the story she has no reason to get those tattoos.
