There’s a couple of scenes in the Arlong Park arc. Nami bawling her eyes out and finally asking Luffy for help, the desk scene, and then the other one I was referring to was Vivi holding up her arm saying goodbye as they realized she couldn’t come with them.

But I was really surprised at how emotional it was, especially with Uta’s motivations and backstory.

There’s a couple of scenes in the first two seasons that just thinking about years later makes me tear up. – old man

So it looks pretty much like the same story from the movie, even has the same cast (doing voice over instead of acting).

So… why?
