I think it’s incredibly funny this guy sailed at the same time Rodger did and has all the experience a guy like that would need and then only uses it like 30% of the time just because his “job” is just to play music and tell bone jokes

One of Brook's more powerful lines, to me, are in Fishman Ilsand, when Zeo is talking about the fodder dying for the cause leaving hatred behind, and as he cuts him, he says "what do you know about death? You have never died before". Brook is such a great character.

It's worth mentioning that, even if they never directly confront eachother, Moriah and Brook are incredible foils. Moriah let his crew's death break him down and he hardly tries anymore, making others work for him, while Brook takes everything onto himself to accomplish, to the point of even pushing others away at first. He was suicidal during his confinement to the Florian Triangle, but his IMMENSE joie de vivre still shone through. The strength of Brook's soul is breathtakingly beautiful. Brook is a reminder to keep pushing to tomorrow, to keep pushing toward the unlikely future where everything is OK, and what was lost was worthwhile.

The story of how Bink's Sake was made is pretty interesting. Oda told Kohei Tanaka, the composer, to work on the piece way back when he was designing Brook. It wasn't until 5 years after the song was completed that it would be premiered. Tanaka himself stated that the song was a mix between carefree and sad, which reflects Brook's character. One thing I love about One Piece's music is that each character has their own theme, which reflects their personality. For example, Luffy has this trumpet theme. Trumpets are mostly instruments who have the melody and lead the ensemble, kind of how Luffy leads the crew in a bright and optimistic way. Zoro's theme is the most traditional, with the use of timpanis and other japanese instruments, such as the koto. Nami, Chopper, and Usopp's theme are very light. Sanji's, Robin's (and possibly Franky's) theme is in a style of jazz. This could reflect their cunning yet unpredictable nature. Even freakin' Doflamingo gets his own theme with electronic music, which is so goofy yet terrifying. And then we get to Brook's theme, and of course it's Bink's Booze but in a different key, followed with strings and winds. And then there's a Trombone solo. Get it? Trom-BONE? I think you get the point of this theme. Anyway, just wanted to gush about Tanaka's music because I think he deserves more love and I am a music nerd. He really makes the anime stand out and is one of the reasons why I continue watching it.

Brook in Wano… he made my heart melt. He saw what he had hallucinated for YEARS on that ship in the Florian Triangle, he saw his crew and his greatest dream and duty to the Rumbar Pirates. Yet because of his love for the Straw Hats and the fire for life they stoked in his heart, he found the resolve to cut through the lies of the illusion. And his dynamic with Robin, and their trust in one another is… the ICING on the cake that is their fight.

My favorite scene in Thriller Bark, even more so than nothing happened, was Luffy and Brook's conversation during the party. It did such a great job forging such a special relationship across generations and instantly solidified Brook as one of my favorite Straw Hats.

Even though he is criminally underrated and not brought up as others when it comes to discussions, I think it shows just how amazing of a support player Brooke is and why his role in the crew is so important.

10 toes down for his crew for real

I’ve always liked that because Brook is so much older than the rest of the crew, his perspective on things is so different. Like he’s the only one on the crew to have grown up and lived in a completely different era. By the time Roger was executed as the pirate king, Brook had already been dead for 30 years. We know that when Brook was sailing Roger was just an up and coming rookie. What we know of Brooks backstory starts when he’s already in his late thirties, so there’s a lot of stuff that he could know about that happened when he was younger. He’s just such an interesting character

Brooks laugh at Sanji with Duval, it was one of the most uninhibited pure displays of joy Iv seen in this show and caught me off guard so much my wife and I laughed with him. I loved brook when he was introduced and I think him reuniting with Laboon and telling him the story of the Straw Hats is 100% how the series needs to end, the end of his quest is the perfect cap stone for the story to me.

I couldn't watch Brook's backstory for ages after the first time I always ended up a weeping mess. What always gets me though is that, as Rumbar Pirates slowly succumb to the poison Brook would've been able to figure out who had stopped singing and thus who had just died, one by one. In the anime at least you can see the moment it sinks in for him as he realises he'll be the last one to go.

@ichigokage

I did cry a little. But I recall feeling this stone sink in my gut. Cause how many sailors have died in a similar manner over the ages?

Brook's "I'm glad to be alive" line coming after Robin's absolutely iconic "I want to live, take me to the sea with you" line really ties together your point. Luffy and the Straw Hats reinvigorate everyone they come across. Their wills to live only grow with Luffy's continued presence in their life. I think that's why I really love Big Mom's soul pocus, too, because she's a foil to Luffy and Brook's fight against her is so awesome. (Also the moment he asked to see her panties, I lost it.)

When Brook first appeared in the manga, I was like "No WAY Oda´ll let this guy join the crew, he´s just too rad/weird". He´s still my favorite today. Thanks for covering him, Mel, I´ve been waiting for this

I am really glad that Zoro was the one to make the sacrifice instead of Sanji. Everyone on the crew serves a purpose, even Usopp. Zoro is primarily the muscle of the crew. If he didnt take responsibility there, its something he cant recover from. I feel both sad and happy for Brook when he is being inappropriate. He has lost his mind a bit yes, but all those years of being lonely and weird, he kept making jokes but no one reacted to them. He thrives on that reaction now. If people laugh, beat him up, or anything else, he gets to confirm that its real, not hallucination You mentioned a good thing about strength. I didnt even notice that he never played music while he was alone. For crazy amount of years, even when he wanted his shadow back, he didnt achieve a whole lot, but during timeskip, in just 2 years he was on a whole another level. He did it for Luffy and the crew

"He may be meatless, but he's certainly not boneless" -MelonTeee That was priceless to me 👌

You missed an important line that provided context for why he joined the crew. In chapter 596 when Brook is reminiscing about his meeting with Luffy and forming his resolve to train for the crew, he says: But you weren't afraid of me. You even asked me to join you. Do you have any idea how much joy that brought me? Especially after wander that dark sea for 50 years... You seemed so bright in my eyes. Those 50 years I spent doing but praying for a miracle... That moment made up for it all.

Experiencing a fate worse than death like being forced into solitude for decades surrounded by your dead past is terrifying to me and that’s why brook fascinates me

Thanks Melon! You always create eloquent, emotionally intelligent, charming, and funny videos. You find the perfect words to describe how I and many others feel about this masterpiece. Brook has always been one of my favorite strawhats, hes the wacky grandpa thats a little outta line, but is always the life of the party despite his awfully traumatic past. He's already lived( and died yohohoho) through his absolute worst moments. Its why i love his addition shortly after franky!

@HudsonsOnTop

Agreed👌

I find that when I watch sad scenes or deaths in shows, I don’t cry at the actual death itself but instead at the reminiscing of those surrounding that person, like when *SPOILERS FOR MARINEFORD* Ace is preparing to be executed, I cried the most not at the end of it all with Luffy but instead with the memories that Garp is looking back on as he stays with Ace as long as he can I think this may be a reason why Brook’s backstory is my favourite, its less about a tragedy that has happened and more about the aftermath being a person who remembers it

Brook is probably my favorite Straw Hat, damn shame he did not get a song or musical bit in film red.

I’m so glad that people appreciate not only how great Brook is but also his voice actor’s performance. Cho is definitely my favorite voice actor among all of Onepiece cast. I cry every time to the “I am so glad I’m alive!!!” scene

The binks sake scene is easily one of my favourite moments of one piece

When it comes to skeletons, bards, bros, and fros, Brook is the GOAT. I'd feel ridiculously lucky to have a friend as loyal and heart warming as him, and I strive to love my friends as much as he does. Best old man in anime for sure.

A very underrated Brook moment was his all too appropriate reaction to Duval looking like Sanji's infamous pre-timeskip bounty poster. Moments like this get me every time. XD

Even tho Brook being the last one to die was a tragedy for him, I also think it's sweet that he hold on so long for his crewmates. Every single one of them passed on being able to hear Brook playing one last time

Brook is one of my favorite characters, mostly because he was the reason that I finally decided to watch One Piece, one of my favorite KZreadrs made a cover of Bink’s brew, and I liked, so I decided to hear it, the amount of emotions that is on that song, without even knowing the context is amazing. The moment I got to Brooks solo in the song, I literally was like “Well, time to hyper fixated myself with this show” and goddamn I did

I teared up the first time I saw Brook's backstory years ago but every time I've seen it since I missed the point that you made that Brook didn't play music when he was alone on the Rumbar pirates' ship. Now I'm tearing up at it all over again. Love your videos, you do a great job of shining a light on aspects of the story like this and you force me to feel all the emotions for fictional pirates. Please make more.

Brook's last concerto really made me bawl my eyes out... If I have any EYES! SKULL JOKE! YOHOHOHOHO!

One piece is definitely about recovering from pretty terrible pasts and even presents, moving forwards to something wonderful, and I think old Brook exemplifies that wonderfully. Despite all the pain he went through, he's still here living, and living a life he loves.

Thanks for bringing up the fact that despite how he handles himself he is still (at least partially) insane brought on from decades of solitude. You'd be surprised how often people just ignore that. Also the scene in Wano between him and Robin when talking about hallucinations/illusions and how he's immune to them because he suffered from them every day was one of my favourite parts of Wano

The "Spare ribs!" part got me cackling like a damn maniac and I'm glad you put that in. 💀

Drifting alone in the sea for 50 years you wonder how Brook hasn't gone completely nuts beyond saving, but then you find out about Laboon and this unbelievable callback to the start of the Grand Line just makes your jaw drop to the floor and tears stream down your face. Also Brook's VA is just the most perfect fit. The song about Nekomamushi is a song Chō sang for his real cat who was called Nekomamushi. His cat was also the inspiration for Oda to create Nekomamushi.

My favourite straw hat! Every time I hear Bink's Brew I always start tearing up, such an amazing man he was was.

Brook is my favorite character in all of One Piece. He's actually the inspiration for my first ever DnD character, Clack the skeleton Bard.

Reading brooks backstory and seeing how well oda ties every aspect of his character around life and music, easily solidified him as my favorite character in manga.

For a very long time my favorite Straw Hat was Sanji, and he's still incredibly important to me. But eventually I noticed that whenever Brook was on screen or when I was reading about him, I found myself with so many more powerful emotions. As someone who struggles with depression, watching Brook always resonates with me. The way he constantly defers to jokes, how protective and empathetic he is towards others and how hard he drives himself to be useful really gets to me. Brook constantly does his absolute best, not for his own sake, but to help those around him. His story is heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time. I've always viewed him as a kind of Whitebeard, someone who knows their story is over and is dead (yohohoho!) set on getting the next generation to where they need to be. The fact that he is a bard character, a support fighter, even though he was once a leader of a battle convoy, shows how much faith he has in his crew. This was a fantastic video, thank you for doing him justice!

Brooks backstory still is one of the saddest ive seen in one piece or in any anime in general. I swear that scene where he plays the piano and exclaims how happy he is to be alive is such a beautiful and well crafted moment. I cried the first time I watched it and I still do tear up when i see it. Deff one of my favorite straw hats

Robin’s story made my cry the hardest. But Brook’s story is the saddest.

Luffy immediately asking Brook to join, and the reaction Sanji and Nami have to that, will always be one of my very favourite moments in One Piece. Makes me smile to think about it.

Brook always manages to make me laugh. I love the skeleton jokes he makes, and his new skill removing his soul from his body, looking like a ghost. It’s easy to forget he’s the oldest member on the crew and possible one of the oldest characters we’ve seen. His generation I think was before roger. The fact that everyday he wakes up and he’s part of a family again probably fills him with such joy is so sweet.

So deep down the one piece rabbit hole already…. I salute to another soldier taken

I've never watched One Piece in my life (and honestly never will, sorry), but the one thing i remember hearing a long time ago is a brief explanation of Brooks backstory. But after watching this video, there were few times that not only i felt emotional, but almost made me tear up. I feel so sorry for the guy and if i had a chance i would give him a hug. A skeletal yet warm hug

Brook is a member of the crew I really wish got more screen time. He’s definitely one of my favorites and he absolutely got to shine through the Whole Cake Island arc. Like seriously, Brook was no doubt the MVP of that arc. His introduction, coming hot off the heals of the amazing Water 7 arc, didn’t disappoint and his backstory and his “I’m so happy to be alive” moment are one of the few times in One Pieces story that actually got me teary eyed just watching. Definitely a wonderful character whose voice actor is capable of depicting both his silly side and serious side perfectly.

Never been more happe to be on a night shift to see this video, by far the biggest emotional rollercoaster for backstories in one piece

We are getting closer and closer to a LUFFY video

Brook's backstory song absolutely devastated me.

In a vast sea of One Piece analysis/essay videos, I really enjoy your work a lot. You have a style and eloquence that is charming, and your videos overall feel soulful and engaging. Thanks for all that you do :)

Brook is one of my favorite Strawhats, cause my father and I love music, and we couldn't be ourselves without it.

I was having a very bad evening, but this video absolutely raised my mood. Thank you so much! ;A; Brook is very much my confort character. I am not sure myself why, but I love him immensely. He is just so warm and loud, but firm in his beliefs and decisions, though a little awkward too. I wish i could be his friend irl. Also my favorite moments with him are every time he reminds us that he is 90 years old already. Like the time he remembered Roger being the newcomer or the time he called Big Mom "young lady". Also very curious about his past as a convoy before he became a pirate.

Brook is one of my biggest motivations for overcoming depression, seeing someone so devastated meet the right people and being grateful for life because all the efforts paid off at the end was what I needed to start fighting back

I love that Brook outside of all his incredible feats and the things he offers the crew, his sheer concept alone makes him incredible to me. Like.... Hes Literally a dead man whose goal is to tell a tale to his old friend. It feels like Oda heard the old Pirate adage Dead men tell no tale and was like, "aight, bet."

My favourite strawhat. He's not the strongest, but not weak, he's brave when he has to and fun when he's himself, he loves his second life and I can't wait for him to meet laboon

Oh boy I can't wait to re-experience the past trauma I felt from brooks backstory!

The “Why is the accompaniment the last to go” is so sad, but the one that broke me even more was right before, as he’s watching his crew go down one by one, and in response goes “It’s now a quartet… a trio… a duo… a solo” I didn’t pay much attention to things when I watched one piece, but you going over things like this made his “I’m so happy to be alive!” so much more meaningful to me

This is the video I been waiting❤

Brook is the sole reason I watched one peice. I knew nothing about the anime but I kept seeing this bone grandpa EVERYWHERE and I just loved him. He's cooky and weird and I love him sm

on my way to work and saw this uploaded, so happy rn, I've been waiting for this one. brook was the character I got to know first before I knew anything about one piece, I have a major soft spot for this fabulous grandpa

this came at a really good time I just finished rewatching thriller bark and god I keep forgetting how Binks Sake get's to me, and was craving more content on this skeleton man.

I needed this, thank-you for another great one

Man, I wasn't expecting to cry this morning but wow. I love Brooke.

Truly the hardest straw hat

Thank God, I've been waiting for this for so long

Yessss MelonTree upload, thank you 🙏

Trying not to tear up when watching. Poor brook, and what a sweet story.

I watched the Thriller Bark arc around what I think was the lowest lowpoint in my college years, whwre I had trouble with my mental health loneliness and just keeping friends around. Then comes a silly big skeleton whos been longer lonely and isolated than alive, and then breaks from his own loneliness by coming to terms of his life and being glad he was still alive. I wouldnt have been here if I didnt see him and think to myself "theres more and better things to come". To this day he is one of my top faves in the series and if I ever catch myself in a bad funk, singing Binks sake will always get me feeling better

I think the dynamic between robin and brook is so cool because luffy gave both of them a reason to live. To genuinely keep going in enjoying their lives

Thank you. This was amazing and by the end I couldnt stop crying

to this day can't hear Bink's Sake without crying, Brook is such a great character

yay! I had been waiting for this one for a while now

MAN MY EMOTIONS 😭😭😭 your vids are so good

brook was quite possibly the one piece worlds first world famous rock star. at least the only one talked about in the show. he has definitely shown off a bone or two to some groupies in exchange for seeing some pantsu.

Brook is walking memento mori and motivation to move forvard. He is a real one!

This video was posted 7 hours ago and ive seen it twice alr. Thx for it!

Im on a marathon of you videos, totally loving your content!

He's been my favorite character since Thriller Bark
