File talk:Whitebeard Breaks Akainu's Ribs.png

Let's talk
I haven't uploaded or reverted any of the version, but I still think I should give my opinion for this image. The anime version is in good quality, but one of the main things, Whitebeard's half face, isn't present in the anime. So I think we should stick with the manga version.

 * Anime is a lot more colorful than manga, and therefore captures much more essence of the scene. Yatanogarasu 23:04, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Just because the anime is colorful it doesn't mean that it instantly captures the essence of the scene and we can't use that kind of logic as a guideline. I'll start by noting some of the differences between the two version. First off, there is Whitebeard's face. He lost almost HALF of his face in the original while he retains in the anime. This makes a very important and crucial difference in his appearance! It has nothing to do about blood being removed or any other similar instances before.


 * Next there is the manner of which the attack is portrayed. In the original version we see clearly Whitebeard, striking with his quake powers using his left hand on Akainu's left side making his body fold. In the animated version the shattering effect gets in the way hiding how Akainu's body responds to the assault, particularly his arms and legs! That's mainly because of the less brighter colors the animators used. Akainu "bends" in the original while he appears to sway or "dodge" because details are blurry or not so easy to see.


 * Last we have the purely cosmetic changes, which are visually apparent in the inside of Whitebeard's coat. This particular difference is not important in any way but since it is there I'll mention it. The design is much more detailed in the manga while it looks lazily done in the anime. Basically the problem is Whitebeard's face seen whole and and some visibility difficulties. MasterDeva 01:26, January 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * I disagree. For those who have a hard time seeing whats going on thats why we have CAPTIONS! In case people don't get it. And its the same scene showing the same action. Keep it as the anime unless the pose was changed to look like shit.

Which version
Then, let's settle this once for all. I don't really know myself, but I'm starting to prefer the manga one.
 * Manga: original scene, clear with much details and less "censored", but black&white
 * Anime: colorful and with more effects but less details, too bright a bit "censored" and in blue-tune as part of the effect (not counting the byte size, could be slower to downloand, even the thumbnail)

leave your opinion here and your vote, so we will finally decide. Let's say the end will be the 10th November, so there will be plenty of time (we can change it, I don't know)
