Manga or Anime?
Yeah yeah, this old discussion again.

Personally, I think the manga is both more detailed and gives a far better impression of the scale of Pica. The buildings and trees are visible, while in the anime it's indistinguishable how large he really is - the only landmarks are at a distance that makes it hard to judge.

Personally, I think the scale is visible in both versions, but I prefer the anime *gasp* because it shows way more of Pica's body.--Xilinoc (talk) 16:23, November 22, 2015 (UTC)

Honestly both versions are fine, but the anime looks better. Is it possible a gif for the abilities page would work? AsuraDrago 21:27, November 22, 2015 (UTC)

They both look good, so anime. Pica's scale is still illustrated in the anime. 16:02, November 23, 2015 (UTC)

Manga all the way. You can't even see Zoro in the anime, nor is the cut effect very visible. Look where the image is used: Santoryu techniques section with the description "Zoro cuts Pica's stone body in half with Ichidai Sanzen Daisen Sekai." 16:12, November 23, 2015 (UTC)

Well yes, you can see Zoro in the anime and the attack and its effects are quite visible. AsuraDrago 18:05, November 23, 2015 (UTC)

You must have better eyes than me, I can't see Zoro at all in the anime....

I'm going with the manga (surprise surprise!), 'cause better art, and more dramatic and blah blah blah. 18:49, November 23, 2015 (UTC)

Personally, I can barely make out Zoro in the manga to begin with, so idk on that front. I like Drago's suggestion of a GIF for this, though. Any other supporters?--Xilinoc (talk) 00:46, November 24, 2015 (UTC)

Zoro is visible even in the thumbnail due to the white highlighting. A gif is completely unneccessary when the manga image perfectly captures what's happening. Animations are only used when the technique is hard to demonstrate with still images and text, which is not the case here at all. I have to say, I'm not a fan of this tendency to try to push for a gif whenever an anime image is deemed inadequate. 13:15, November 24, 2015 (UTC)

Zoro's in the manga image? *squints* Is this him? Honestly I couldn't tell. That's so tiny that I don't even think that would matter in a thumbnail.

I can go with either anime or manga. 19:29, November 24, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe I should have been more clear, the gif argument was for another section.

Anyway, I'm still for the anime. The angle and detail are great, and still just as visible as the manga. AsuraDrago 02:51, November 26, 2015 (UTC)

For use on the technique page, I'd actually say GIF or nothing. The whole point of images on technique pages is to show the technique when the paragraph can't describe it alone. In this case, we can't see Zoro or what goes into the technique, so frankly an image is not much help at all. Unless a GIF gives us more to demonstrate, I'm for deletion. 03:37, November 27, 2015 (UTC)
