Because they capitalized on the two things that people like the character the most for.

Sanji - They capitalized on his fighting choreography and character moments for the anime and gave beautiful scenes that highlight sanjis fighting style and character.

Zoro - They capitalized on his strength and strength of spirit and gave jaw dropping visuals that made Zoro and king look like absolute powerhouses

I’ve legit seen Zoro win a popularity poll once
A lot of kids flock to Zoro anyhow just like they do to Luffy except they think Zoro is the coolest anime character in existence

Polls say one thing but the actions of the fandom AND overall community, even toie say another
Luffy has never lost. And zoro has not always been second

Are we still going on about this, this is just sad.

Yeah 1062 was a better episode than 1061 but that doesn't mean 1061 was bad, 1061 was a really great episode as well and the animation for that episode was also really good.

Why does it matter which episode was done better? Like who cares, both of them were enjoyable and to me that's all that matters.

I also want to point out, that plenty of people including some Zoro fans were complaining about the Zoro vs King fight in the anime before 1062.

1062 was better when it came to the fight itself and the animation, and 1061 was better when it came to the character focus and the writing.

From beginning to end sanji vs queen is a lot better than zoro vs king in the anime

If were talking about the final episodes only
Zoro vs king was more of a visual spectacle. Like anime king lowkey low diffs his manga counterpart with how much he was highlighted
Sanji and queen has a bit of everything with fluid easy to understand choreography and really hits the emotional sections

I guess Mods can move this to anime discussion section if they want, I mean this is more of a question about One Piece as a whole not necessarily anime only as this sorta kinda applied to Manga as well if you look at Art Around Zoro vs King and Sanji vs Queen but in anime its just day and night difference

Just look at these two clips


Its not just the fact that Art in Zoro's episode is like massively superior, the transitions, the number of stills in that one minute clip alone, the movie quality animation given to Zoro, hell they even boosted King's Animation and made his final attack look like its an attack from an actual God himself, they even went out of their way to work on Zoro's music.

They gave a whole new Background music and gave the flute version of Zoro's theme to finish the fight.

And that's just not it, if you look at the entire episode, animation was movie quality for literally the 12 or so minutes of the episde.

Where as for Sanji majority of the episode was that usual mid quality animation and in the end that stepped it up but still with usual Sanji music and Queen just went down.

For Zoro they then put in extra work for King of Hell stuff and even finished the episode with Z

Why did they treat the two fights so differently?
Imo

Zoro represents Japanese people, bushido ideology, katana etc, so Toei inevitably become Zorotardish and consider Zoro their golden boy in anime.

Meanwhile Oda kinda neutral in his own manga portrayal regarding Zoro's fight and Sanji's fight...but Oda's fetish is to humiliate Sanji since the start of timeskip by sending him to Kamabakka, shaping Sanji's Year as Sanji's Sadboi Cuck Year and such...and Oda let Toei cook whatever they want the fight of Sanji vs Queen and Zoro vs King to be, so this difference is the result.

Why such a dramatic difference in how anime treats sanji and robin,jinbei lmao?
Why robin and Franky didn't get cool animation like sanji.
Some fight will be better animated than others.
It's just how it is
I have no problem with the episodes
I like Sanjis more

I just don't like stuff that's added
To the story just 2 make Sanji look bad

Like it's not in the manga
It's just stuff like King stopping sanji kick with one hand
Like why add that???
just to down play Sanji

My main problem with Sanji vs Queen is that, no matter how fluid or "auraless" it looked, i, not even for once felt like it was two high tiers fighting. They looked comparable to Who's Who and Jinbe. They lacked impact and power. It was underwhelming, simple as that.

With Zoro vs King, I could see and feel that it was a fight between the so-called God and the "King of Hell", like it was supposed to be, fast, powerful, flashy, with over-the-top moves and techniques.

In manga to it was same lmao.
Sanji and queen were fighting inside small rooms lmao.
While zoro and king were fighting outside causing huge amount of destruction

King single blast where he blow himself caused 10 time more destruction than entire sani Vs queen fight could
