To be fair, Arlong isn't really scary in the manga either with his Hawaii shirt and ski hat.
But he is. He wrecks Luffy, Luffy is outclassed. His first difficult opponent. Luffy only wins due to plot. He was underwater. He should have died.
Arlongs was scary. Hi bites Luffy. Rips his teeth out and uses them as weapons. Stabs Luffy with his nose. He's a scary guy. Looks chill then boom.
I disagree. If Luffy hadn't burrowed himself in the beginning of the fight it wouldn't have been any issue. As soon as Luffy gets serious after seeing Namis room he completely wrecks Arlong. He even breaks his weapon like it was nothing.
Yeah he needs to fight harder because Arlong is a. Opponent of high level. He tried out some things and almost died.
