Why does the One Piece anime insist on not explaining the scar on Luffy’s face?

Why doesn’t the One Piece anime reveal the cause of Monkey D.Luffy’s famous facial scar? Today’s Gamehub article will explain this problem to readers.
​

​

Created by legendary mangaka Eiichiro Oda, One Piece has been “sailing” since 1997 and has yet to land. More than 1,000 chapters and more than 980 episodes later, this franchise continues to grow from strength to strength as Monkey D.Luffy’s Straw Hat team sets out to find Gol D. Roger’s legendary treasure as well as the mythical island. If you’re a One Piece fan, no matter what level you are, you’ll know that our main character, Luffy, is an impulsive person, the type who wants to jump right into battle and throw his friends off cliffs, and he poisoned himself just to prove it. a point,…

Therefore, it is not surprising if Luffy has some wounds on his body, typically the large X-shaped scar on his chest caused by Lava Admiral Akainu in the Battle of Marineford (Akainu threw a punch through Jinbei’s body and hit Luffy’s chest). But the scar that marks Luffy’s mark and has been with the character since the early days must definitely be the small curved cut under his eye.
​

Zoro was once misunderstood as the person who caused this scar, but it is actually a remnant left by Akainu.​

The small scar on Luffy’s face appeared from the first pages of the story. Readers of the manga probably still remember when Luffy tried to convince the red-haired Shanks to let him join the pirate crew, the captain laughed at him. To prove his steadfastness, Luffy took the knife and stabbed himself just below the eye, terrifying Shanks’ entire crew. Afterwards, the boy received two points, everyone drank, and shortly after, the future “fifth Yonko” ate the Gomu-Gomu devil fruit.

However, episode 1 of the One Piece anime begins in the present day with Luffy rescuing Koby from evil pirates and meeting his first companion, Roronoa Zoro. Shanks’ flashback doesn’t begin until episode 4, but absolutely no details are shown about Luffy’s gruesome childhood self-stabbing. And the question is why? Many fans reason that letting a child cut himself in the eye is too violent an image that should not be shown in movies to prevent children from imitating it.

Japanese cartoons are famous for their more relaxed content than Western cartoons, with scenes of Sanji smoking cigarettes or bleeding profusely during fights still appearing in anime regularly. However, if the scene of a child stabbing himself in the eye takes place in episode 1 of an animated film that has a large young audience, sooner or later a lawsuit will occur. Therefore, to secure the trunk, the manufacturer has chosen safer measures.

Fortunately, the One Piece anime made up for the “lost” footage. In 2012, a Luffy special was released to coincide with One Piece Film: Z, separate from the main anime telling Luffy’s origin story, including the eye stab incident. This legendary childhood scene has been included in the characters’ flashbacks.
