Why Netflix’s One Piece Was Right to Skip the Loguetown Story Arc

Netflix’s live-action One Piece adaptation finally broke the live-action anime curse, setting a new standard for bringing anime to life with real setpieces and practical effects. Some compromises had to be made, however, such as toning down some of the original One Piece anime’s most ambitious visual tricks and even omitting entire scenes. All this was done to preserve the series’ brisk pacing, even if it meant cutting out entire arcs like Loguetown.Loguetown only appeared once in Netflix’s One Piece series as the site of pirate captain Gold Roger’s execution in a prologue, while Loguetown was the venue for a short arc in the original manga/anime. Longtime One Piece fans may not like seeing a short but sweet arc like that vanish, but it was for the best on multiple levels. This way, the series remains focused and ends on a high note to keep new fans pumped for Season 2.In the original One Piece manga and anime franchise, the Loguetown arc was the final arc in the overall East Blue Saga. It served several minor purposes that added up to making Loguetown a worthwhile arc, representing many storytelling elements that make One Piece so compelling. This arc served as the falling action not just for the action-packed and dramatic Arlong Park story arc but for the entire East Blue Saga before moving the story to the Alabasta Saga in the Grand Line. In many ways, Loguetown was one last pit stop before embarking on a truly grand adventure from which there would be no turning back.RELATED: Netflix’s One Piece Reflects the Anime’s Themes of Freedom and Dreams
