thoughts about the one piece wit studio remake?

So I heard about it and originally i thought it was just going to be the East Blue Arc that they were strictly reanimating. It's been a few years now since I've heard about this.

So now? I'm not so sure. It sounds like they plan on doing more than reanimating it and they might do more episodes beyond the east blue arc. Especially with how long they're taking to get it done. I really hope they don't touch the audio or if they do touch it? Atleast use the exact same lines. (For dub specifically.)

BUT if they do decide to change some things around? It would make sense to do so. One piece wasnt supposed to be running for as long as it is now. Which is something I'M POSITIVE. A lot of people don't know about. Oda was originally supposed to end the mange/anime after the first 5 years. So I assume directly after they made it to the grandline. I think the story was supposed to be more of a fever dream or a legend type story. That kind of ends before any of the characters obtain their dreams, leaving A LOT to the imagination. So knowing all this? Oda is probably the only one who see's how flawed the story is. I mean just think.

Imagine writing a shortish story WITH ZERO PLANS of continuing it. You decide that when you finish. You want to continue the story because you feel like you couldn't end it there, not to mention that the story made history again and again, but by the time you realize this? You're already like 300 episodes in. (don't know the chapter-to-episode ratio) I don't know about you guys, but it's not just the art style that slowly changes throughout the story, but it's also the story itself. You can tell by the change of pace the story takes. ESPECIALLY after the time skip.

So I can't really judge it too harshly knowing that: one I havent seen it yet and two Oda was bound to want to remake the first half because of these reasons.
