One Piece : Épisode de Chopper - Le Miracle des cerisiers en hiver

Basically a condensed version of the tv series arc which introduces my not so favorite character of Chopper. Now I am not a fan of One Piece in general for a number of reasons, one being it's immense length with it's one major redeeming factor (it's epic fights) being so drawn out and continuously interrupted by unnecessary side stories and goofy slapsrtick antics and gross emotional revelations. So as opposed to when other anime series like Demon Slayer come out with their condensed versions of arcs where I'm like why not just watch the series with all it's fun bits, for one piece I welcomer condensed versions in the hope of watching the important bits and hopefully a fluent, uninterrupted fight sequence. 2/3 of this movie is the rushed retelling of Chopper's sobby story and only like 9 minutes of fights so I was disappointed there but it cut through a lot of the nonsense and the new animation was..good(?) mostly interesting and kept me watching.

This is a good alternative to watching the hundreds or so episodes to get pretty much the jist without some of the eye-rolls and it has some flashy (?) animation BUT hardly any Zoro (my main qualm) Not really a terribly must watch thing even for fans. I'm still flabbergasted as to how I managed to sit through this waiting for a nine minute fight scene so I guess it was pretty okay.
