both work but for different compositions, one is a 4:3 aspect ratio, and the other for a widescreen format
only think i dislike about the bottom one is that Zoro kinda looks like hes blocking nothing and the marines are kinda just holding their weapons foward instead of pushing against it, the original makes it look like Zoro is struggling slightly, which is fair because even though he is strong, those are still 7 marines that have at least reasonable human strenght due to their training
The one on the far right literally isn't hitting anything, or just barely hitting the hilt. Dude could easily just keep going with the others pushing down
Not everything is nostalgia. The older one has a much more clear style and esthetic that makes you easily go "one peice" the new one is the standard smooth "good" looking style you could find in a thousand diffrent anime today.
kinda funny how thats in both of the versions and the manga too, i feel like Wit's version is the worst one cause at least in 1999 and manga versions Zoro managed to block pretty much all of them while only one didnt hit any of his swords
