Huh. I thought I knew what to expect from One Piece. A unique style, shounen friendships (NAKAMA!), piratey fun times, treasure, bizarre villains, fun characters, epic plotlines, and >400 episodes.
I did not expect it to make me tear up. Only other anime that's done that is Cowboy Bebop. It's the way Nami flings dust at Luffy here in Episode 37), mostly, because that's just about all she can do to anyone at that point. Going back to just that, it must look pretty corny, I guess. But that moment had been building for several episodes and. uh. IT WAS TWO IN THE MORNING; THAT MAY HAVE BEEN A FACTOR. no, but seriously, best scene in the show so far.
What did it for me in Bebop was Faye drawing a bed for herself in this scene, although the music probably helped. Just... agh. STILL HAVEN'T FOUND THE SHOW TO MAKE ME CRY, BUT THESE GUYS CAME CLOSE.
You know what else evoked a strong emotion? Wolf's Rain. But that was more horrified disbelief. I am so impressed that they had the guts to end it the way they did, oh man. DID NOT EXPECT THAT AT ALL OH WOW.
I have been watching quality shows lately. Talk about variety, hey? But they were all excellent, some of them despite first impressions.
