Rewatched the first 5 episodes of One Piece after 400 chapters and the art change hit me hard

I started the manga back in 2020 and only ever saw the early anime clips from the East Blue days, so last week I finally sat down and watched the first 5 episodes of the current anime run. The line work and shading are so much cleaner now, and Luffy's face actually moves like a rubber guy should instead of just kind of sliding around. Does the newer art style win you over, or do you miss the rough look from the old episodes?
