Luffy Law, and Kidd having identical bounties was already stupid but if the straw hats have these low bounties I think that will kill future bounty hype. The beast pirates had 3 commanders with over a billion bounties and strawhats basically mid diffed them. If only Zoro or no one gets a bill bounty then what's the point?
Well, I agree, but I also disagree with that.
Adaptation is, by definition, a fucking adaptation. It's not supposed to be a copy/paste. Different medias demand different approaches. One Piece worked being goofy and having a bunch of comic faces, but trying to turn it into a Live Action just doesn't work if you try to edit some giant mouths every time someone smiles on the show.
Don't get me wrong. Big Companies don't want to be "cool" and "representative" or anything like that. They want money and they make a bunch of calculations and come to the conclusion they will make more money if they make such adaptations.
SOMETIMES they get things right (Black Panther movie), sometimes it becomes some stereotypical cringefiesta (Captain Marvel).
Tolkien was, for better or for worse, a man of his own time.
It's not uncommon that his stories have traces of prejudices that, at the time, were not as apparent as they are today. Adapting these things is pretty ok. The problem starts when you think you already did your job purely because you decided to cast a black dude to play an elf, but the show is still a mess.
Think GoT. The idea of "empowering" women through Arya, etc.
They completely butcher a plotline they DECIDED to create (there's no night king in the books. that's a show thing). The SHOW decided to turn Jon Snow into "the hero". The SHOW decided to create this antagonism between Jon and the Night King. The SHOW also decided "fuck it, it will be surprising if Arya do it instead! Yeah, Girl Power! Damn, I'm such a feminist guy!".
See what I mean?
