Recently I started watching the One Piece anime and noticed some differences
in the story line than were present in the manga, and I was wondering if there
was a huge divergence in the anime over the manga like with Black Butler, or
more like slight differences in plot like with Fullmetal Alchemist:
Brotherhood.

question
one-piece
What are the differences between the One Piece anime and manga?


The anime and manga closely resemble one another.

This is mainly because the mangaka, Eiichiro Oda actually actively
participates into the animation process. So whenever they want a filler
episode, they will contact Eiichiro Oda for confirmation, and he would either
approve or reject it.

I believe the only deviations there were was some part in the beginning of the
anime that did not totally follow the manga, and ace's tattoo. Which later on
got adapted in the manga as well, so not sure how much that would count as a
difference.

Well the one piece manga is the skeleton of one piece anime so there are some
add ups in anime to make in more realistic and entertaining to the audience by
modifying some of the portions of manga and the main difference between them
is the approach of conveying the story to the readers and anime watchers .

The anime has lots of filler in between pages or they drag some parts out. The
anime also has entire filler arcs that are not in the manga but they don't
affect the overall story of one piece. I have not watched black butler or full
metal alchemist so I can't compare them to one piece. I do know that it is
still in the same place the manga is but just an arc behind. I know that the
anime might leave false impressions in some places, for example when Luffy
fought Doflamingo the anime made it look like king Kong gun had a hard time
beating Doflamingo but in the manga it crushed him. Not worth to being caught
up and watching one episode a week in my opinion but it is worth watching for
the fights because animated fights are always better than looking at pictures.
