| Summary: |
Before Eiichiro Oda created his hit series, One Piece, he wrote and illustrated several one-shot manga. In 1994, he made the one-shot Monsters, which directly connects to One Piece. Now, thirty years later, Oda’s original story about a samurai with the heart of a true warrior comes to life again through an Original Netflix Anime adaptation, Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation (Monsutāzu Ippaku Sanjō Hiryū Jigoku). Sunghoo Park, known for his work on Jujutsu Kaisen and God of High School, serves as the director. E&H Production produces the one-shot animation, and Takashi Kojima serves as the character designer, while Fuminao Akai is the art director. The music, composed by Hiroaki Tsutsumi, is produced by Takeki Kobayashi. The voice cast of Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation features Yoshimasa Hosoya as Ryuma, Kana Hanazawa as Flare, Hiroki Tōchi as Shirano (also spelled as Cyrano), Mitsuaki Madono as D.R., Katsuhito Nomura as Master, and Kazuya Nakai as Zoro. In Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation, Ryuma, a traveling samurai, lives in a world threatened by dragons unleashing catastrophic destruction wherever they go. Ryuma is on a quest to find the person known as “The King” and challenge him to a fight. Through a series of circumstances and misunderstandings, Ryuma sets out to defeat a dragon and save a village. Beyond its role as an entertaining standalone story, Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation is a compelling prelude to the One Piece narrative as we know it today. Offering more profound insights into Ryuma, a character that lived hundreds of years before and is of significant importance in the land of Wano and to Zoro’s lineage, this one-shot anime highlights the expansive storytelling potential within the One Piece universe. This one-shot goes beyond centering the familiar tales of Luffy and his crew or the pursuit of the One Piece treasure. Monsters demonstrate a capacity to explore other diverse and captivating narratives within the franchise, showcasing the richness and versatility inherent in the franchise.Ryuma’s story resembles Zoro’s pursuit of becoming the world’s greatest swordsman in One Piece. The parallel journeys of these two characters, both driven by an unwavering commitment to mastering the art of the sword, add depth to their connection. Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation enriches the narrative by shedding light on Ryuma’s quest, offering newfound meaning to Zoro’s poignant encounter with him at Thriller Bark. This revelation implies that Ryuma, even in death, sought out the next greatest swordsman, found and faced defeat at the hands of Zoro, marking a profound passing of the torch in the world of swordsmanship. |

For fans of OnePiece this is definitely gonna be a good watch. Adding some missing pages to the One Piece universe. After the first episode, I'm already hooked on our protagonist. Just knowing he is the warrior Zoro fights in one piece" when Zoro recieves that beautifully black and red sword ". And since it's seems dragons may be the focus, there may be a chance that Kaido might make an appearance and we may get a bit of an origin story for him too. Tho this is major speculation on my part tho. But I'm definitely watching this to the end...
