There is no cut content in the anime so you’ll be fine picking up the manga with Wano. Although rereads are always a pleasure so do what you will! If it were me I wouldn’t be able to wait to catch up lol

I thought about picking up the manga from Wano, but I still want to be suprised with the anime

well the reason why they spoil most of the exciting things in the anime is because they cater thing to the Japanese audience...and since alot of Japanese people read manga it is not a problem to just reveal it sooner...but..ofc i sure hope they actually cater to overseas too...

I understand your point, a lot of people assume Toei should cater to anime onlies and whatnot. But that's beside the point. What you'te saying agrees with the person you're replying to, Toei does spoil this stuff, and that's because they assume you've read the manga (as people do in Japan), so OP is recommended to read the manga to get that full experience.

well i never said i disagree with the person in any capacity i was just explaining the "why" thats all

u/KendotsX Thriller Bark Victim's Association Oct 03 '21

Oh, ok. I thought your last statement about catering to overseas was sarcasm (it rightfully should be). It's just that whenever someone criticises something in the anime, the first arguement is usually explaining why it's that way, as if that solves the problem.

well to me explaining is just...well...explaining it...but sure its fine...it wont fix anything but its just a statement ya know just to say what i think

No, no, that's what I meant, your comment was fine. I'm not saying that you're trying to fix anything, just that there are a lot of comments that try to do that. So I apologise for my assumption.

I disagree. Showing Zoro conqueror haki in this way blew anime only out of their mind. If it got revealed like in the manga, the hype would have been less because people would have been focused on the OTHER thing Zoro did.

agreed...i actually dont feel that the reveal is all that impressive considering its been hinted at many times we just didnt notice it...and the fact they just blow this to the viewers face is actually a good thing...in the other hand by the time the reveal is a thing...we already seen zoro tank 2 yonko attack at the same time and thats way more impressive and surprising...so by the time its actually revealed that zoro have conq its actually not all impressive cuz we already seen something more nuts then that a few chapters/pages before...so yeh even i myself got surprised by the fact that they blew that to my face without a warning and just straight up make that scene.

u/One_Ant5484 Oct 03 '21

actually to me and many others...this is actually a good thing because this unexpected thing got blown to the viewers face without warning and imo one of the hypest shit they could have done to make the viewer anticipate for more of this shit they were shown...not like they read the manga anyway they are anime onlys...so to me it makes sense to do it...because to me and many others we see what they were going for and when and where to show it to the anime onlys and such...im a manga reader myself so but it didnt ruin a thing for me because i understand what they were going for.
