Megumi Ishitani graduated in 2015 and by March of 2018 she was the person to direct the final episode of dragon ball super (even back then you can see some similarities to the monster of episodes she would go on to create.) But think about it Dragon Ball, one of the biggest series in the whole world, let alone the biggest one to come out of Japan, and this "kid" who graduated 2 years ago was picked to direct the last episode of such a monumental series.

Dang, she nailed it. That scene where Luffy and Roger being compared side-by-side. Never imagined that scene to give such impact. That panel in the manga itself gives me goosebumps, but what she did made me shiver down to my soul. Instead of separating them, she was like why not combine them. Excellent transition and color palette of choice, truly gives that dreamy like vibe. From start to finish, she never disappoint us. She understood how to convey the story well, making everyone to look forward to.

Something I really love about Ishitani is that she knows how to use lens flare well. Contrast her to someone like JJ Abrams where he does lens flare because rule of cool(The Force Awakens is a good example of this). Yet in Ishitani's case she uses the color of the lens flares to create atmosphere/ mood. Take this latest episode, you saw a lot of darker reds and blacks to emphasize darkness/ threats. This notable when the Worst generation confront Big Mom and Kaidou. You see this on full display with the flashback before Luffy's Red Roc going through the buildup to that moment. Brighter colors are allowed to pop to showcase jovial, good moments whereas the darker reds and oranges emphasize bad moments or something lingering. Ishitani really should be given her own series. She's an incredible talent and as far as I am concerned she's on her path of joining some of the all time great animators.

One of the first times that the anime look like what I imagine.

I think another reason her work on one piece is so good is because it’s very clear that she’s a massive one piece fan. Or if she isn’t, she really understands what makes the characters so good. The scenes she directed of the crew just bickering amongst themselves felt so good. The scene of Sanji and zoro comes to mind. Kinemons face as he leads the soldier charge sells how much he NEEDS this to succeed. The same face he makes, bleeding out on the rooftop does the same thing. It’s beyond masterful

The starting moment when Yamato said to Ace "You aren't dead are you?" I become strangely aware something is different. The episode was bravely directed with a joke before tragedy, two instance, the previous quote and zoro's flying fall. I really admire the goddess director talents for transitioning emotions. It really shows that she is confident in getting the message across.

the episodes she directed were so good that people actually learned her name. I don’t know the names of anyone else on One piece but I took the time to learn hers

There's no "bigger" project than One Piece to be on, except for a One Piece reboot with more production value Making her own movie would give her more creative freedom and more time/money per scene, but nothing will be bigger or more ambitious than One Piece as an artistic project anytime soon

You can clearly see how much passion the staff put into this, it made me fall in love with One Piece and animation all over again. Am literaly shaking to my core, this episode was absolutly amazing, her talent is fucking insane. Am, just.... trying to process everything I saw omg. Am. speachless.

GIVE THE LADY HER DINOSAURS

4:41 - 4:47 one of the best scene in the ep. 1015. I don't know how to describe the transition in this scene but a word "genius". I mean, for the manga readers we knew what we would see after Luffy pass by both Kaido and Big Mom, but they enhanced the emotional damage by made it looked a like a cheerful scene, where we're greeted by Kin'emon smiling with other Akazaya members and *THEN... INSTANTLY* turned it into a dark and gloomy scene

Hope for her to make her own movie that as impactful as Makoto Shinkai’s or Mamoru Hosoda’s.

Every time a One Piece episode that's directed by Megumi is about to drop, everyone gets to know about it before it drops. That's how iconic she is among the One Piece community. An amazing talent and I would also like to see her animate her own passion project, but I, selfishly, also don't want her to leave One Piece before it ends. Finding out that she loves dinosaurs, it's a stamp of confirmation that she'll be animating more episodes in Wano since it's full of them. I hope she'll animate the Zoro flashback episode. And I hope the guy who animated the Katakuri fight, I keep forgetting his name, animates all the fight heavy episodes starting from roofpiece.

"If they ever reboot one piece, she's the first one I'd say I would love to be the one in charge" YOU CALLED IT, LET'S GET THE PETITION STARTED!!!!!

The best thing about Ishitani is that even if the episode she gets isn't an insane action packed episode, the animation/direction/stroyboarding is so perfect it remains very interesting to watch and engaging. The scene in 1015 where Yamato hears Luffy's dream and says she won't laugh because it's what Roger also said, compare that to the manga counterpart and Ishitani immediately draws back on the scene with Roger Oden and Whitebeard while basically superimposing Luffy Sabo and Ace to show this in a much more visually engaging and yet more meaningful way than the source material does. That's not to fault Oda, but it's telling when everyone is waiting for roofpiece to start and yes it technically starts this episode but 85% of the episode isn't even on the roof, it's just a flashback of Yamato and Ace but yet here we are singing the episodes praises as the greatest episode of One Piece of all time. That's the power and vision of Ishitani.

I swear this lady deserves everything, God bless her soul she made legendary episodes

Megumi has proven that she is just another fan of One Piece. She is one of us , and I greatly appreciate the direction she has chosen for every episode she has delivered on.

Really like the vid, and I'll probably mention it elsewhere but I would say be careful what you wish for when it comes to Ishitani moving on to her own projects. That's not so much in regards to OP but getting to see THIS degree of standout talent directing episodes is rare, and they come with their own advantages that differ from helming an entire movie or TV series. I would LOVE this extent of quality for a whole movie or TV series helmed by her, and she's probably capable of that, but there's SO many other factors that determine the right conditions for that quality to be realized. She should do what she wants, who am I to dictate what she should/shouldn't do haha I'd just say where she's at with episodes on such a high profile series is a perfect place to be, and I wish we'd see more of it elsewhere. Like yeah it's great that Hosoda and Matsumoto moved on to grander pastures, but Hosoda in particular I honestly sorely miss as an episode director, I think a standout episode of a show like this recent 1015 can exceed projects that are entire packages, I might be a weirdo but truthfully I prefer several of Hosoda's episodes to any of his original movies lmao

Really interesting perspective and I can definitely see where you're coming from. I am making a lot of inferences in this video about what Ishitani's actual ambitions and hopes are as an artist and I could be completely wrong, all I want for her is to have the opportunities to make what she wants as a creator, whether that be more One Piece episodes or something completely new. But I fully agree that it is an extreme rarity and very special to see episodes like this from TV anime that just stand far and above its contemporaries, and that in itself should be valued.

This was a fantastic video. I've been obsessed with Megumi's animation since OP episode 982, and when I found out she was doing 1015, I knew off the bat that it was going to bang.

Look at what they did with world trigger. 1st season, honestly very mediocre in animation and very slow paced but was an enjoyable first watch. But after making the second and third season, it's very noticeable how much it's changed (and using that nice art style), it's very consistent with its animation and there were a couple good sakuga moments, those two season were definitely worth going through season 1, just levels above when it came to adapting the sequels (tho it would be better just to read the manga and go to s2). Toei has shown what they could do with a smaller shounen series but it's kinda their thing to continuously spew out episodes of multiple series. Although I can imagine toei would be on par with the top animation studios if they did 2-3 cour for one piece and it would give enough time for the anime to be in a comfortable position pace wise

thank you for this work

great video

Being in Toei probably it will allowed her to make in the future a movie on her own. Im sure she will be a star. Also, it really shows the love she has for the series. Because the bits that she introduced to the episode it was not out of place at all, was very in tone with the feelling of the source material. I dont think she could have made a episode like this in dragon ball for example.

I think the recreation and connection to the parallels between Luffy and Roger was more impressive than the flashback sequence for Red Roc

awesome video !

It’s not just that epiphany moment that Yamato had with Luffy infront of Roger that’s so great but the way she’s had Yamato relating all of that to Momosuke and the layers of the episode when she’s discovering the connection between Luffy and Roger when talking to Ace. How all that stacks together and the viewer doesn’t get lost.

Finally! I’ve been trying to explain the difference between 1015 and most of the other one piece episodes to my roommate, but couldn’t describe it. This is a fantastic video, very well written and thank you for shining light on this amazing talent!

my wish is that when one piece eventually ends, and the anime following a couple years after, we get a reboot series just like toei did to dbz in dbz kai, make a one piece kai, with ishitani directing every episode, increase the pacing, leave out the fillers and make the animation godlike this will not only make early one piece better, but it also allows newcomers to get into the series easier instead of having to sit through hundreds of episodes of 20 year old animation to get to the end

Don´t bother ever watching it unless there is a fan cut that cuts out all the filler that makes a 10min episode into 25min (intro, recap, still frames, animation loops, staring, ...). The majority in general is badly animated.

Wano anime looks good but unfortunately I don't want to go though all the new world arcs with really weak production quality to get to them, so I have just been sticking to the manga.

Just watch the Ishitani episodes then? Or just watch the Wano episodes. Why should you watch all the other new world eps?

My advice is read the manga and pick up some of the better episodes in between. There's some great episodes in every arc, but they pop up here and there. I can deal with the older episodes since that was the expectation back then, but some of the episodes in the New World have been been up and down

I mean, great episodes between this arc and after

excellent video.

Those extra panel were really awesome.. Loved it.. ❤️‍🔥 lezzz go.. 1016.. Waiting for Nikka..

One Piece 1015 broke me. It was like Demon Slayer 19 all over again. Edit: Lemme clarify that I am not comparing these two anime. I just wanted to share how two particular episodes from two different anime came outta nowhere and broke me. It's just something incredible about these episodes that's unlike any other episode from the same anime. It catches you off guard and you find yourself tearing up. I experienced the same in Deku vs Muscular episode and I don't even like MHA that much.

lol don't compare. DS 19 was just a scar-face kid slicing some annoying weird kid with great animation. OP 1015 was the culmination of hundreds of episodes of the best Manga in history, they are not the same.

@@drdisrespect.8174 i have watched hundreds of Anime and read hundreds of Manga, many of them aren't even close to the shonen genre, yet i still think One Piece is the best. the Manga and the franchise as a whole. yes the Anime has obvious glaring problems that you would expect from a weekly shonen that runs for 23 years, but then with just 1 episode that got the love and care it deserves it made this 1 episode better than 99.9% of any Anime episode of any Anime that i have ever seen.

First man

This is epic! 🙏

I LITERALLY GOT GOOSEBUMBS IN THE WAY EVERYTHING JUST WAS SO FLAWLESSLY SEAMLESS!! I especially loved the sudden transition from a happy ‘flashback’ to the horrifying present (ie, Yamato finding out ace’s life went *poof*, and Luffy finding kine’mon’s body with the rest of the samurais)

Phenom is about to edit the title to "One Piece and the Legendary Anime Director You've Never Heard Of Unless you are Sleepographer from KZread comments" after seeing this.

i don't even watch OnePiece and those scenes you just showed make me wanna cry they are ridiculously stunning

Great Vídeo! She it's amazing and súper talented.

This is next level!

When all is said and done, Megumi-san will undoubtedly be regarded as one of the greats in the industry (if she isn't already :)). Nothing short of an incredibly hard working talent, and force to be reckoned with. It's been a long journey, but I'm so glad to be alive in this moment to witness and experience this incredible story! Amazing video as well on your part Mr.Sage! I can't remember the last time I watched one of these types of videos with such well articulated intention, and coinciding direction. (Straw)Hats off to you! 👏

Incredible video and a brilliant writing. Do you do the writing yourself tho?

I did not know that episode 1015 was created by such an amazing director but the moment the episode started I could already tell something was different. The lighting the music and the mood the whole episode gave me goosebumps and I had to rewatch it 3 times

Thanks for shining light to her! I think she's really amazing and it shows in her work!

Even as the scenes is showing in this video while the guy is talking, I'm getting chills.

Man I can't for 'THAT' scene to get animeted i am soooo freaking hyped

this woman has put the best work my eyes have ever seen, I wish her the best life anyone could possibly dream off and I really hope no one ever stops praising her work, this talent does not deserve silence!

This was probably my favorite One Piece episode ever. The final scene on the roof was incredible

THE episode, I look forward to her episodes a lot, exceptional work and feel

i love ishitani and i love her work but we really have to give praise to everyone involved in this masterpiece. the interaction between ace and yamato feels so real and alive for me because the voice actors were just so vivid. especially for characters that we dont see much or havnt seen in a while, ace, whitebeard, roger, sabo. all of the voices were so alive and full of charcter and push the into a league of its own

You were absolutely right! Best ep ever!🔥

thank you for this video, i really had no idea who she was before. That women is amazing . Im just so happy she exists 🤧

1015 gave me goosebumps and this video too 💥

That episode truly blew my mind, especially that scene where Yamato sees Sabo and Ace, and afterwards Luffy in front of Roger. My mouth dropped. Heck, I was fascinated for the whole episode. The scene where Ace stops his little boat to look for Yamato, the harsh cut to reality when Luffy sees Kinemon and the other Akazaya. And yeah, the Red Roc too, of course. What an outstanding and beautiful episode, my god

Made me want to rewatch the episode again
