But weren't they planning on reusing the audio of the original anime? Or are they able to use just the voices separately?

I have no clue.

If the plan is to literally just animate over the original audio track of each episode, I've lost all interest.

There's no way they would be able to get the voice actors to voice the whole thing all over again. I actually in all honesty love the soundtrack. And it's not true that all arcs have the same music. There have always been new songs mixed with the classics.

Whole cake island soundtrack

Paramount war

Dressrosa

Etc etc etc...

I'm doubtful they'll even manage a complete production of the whole thing. Re-doing the voice acting of a series is hardly a hurdle in the grand scheme of things.

And ball-and-chaining themselves to Toeis original version by re-using the original audio track of each episode defeats the point of doing a remake.

It would leave a lot less leeway for addressing the production issues Toei ran into over the years.

Now, if the audio assets are all still available as individual original recordings, that'd be completely different.

I really hope they have access to the separate voice audio. But this is the 90s we're talking about. They'll be lucky to have the audio separate from the video.

Not enough for me to ever notice.

I didn't say I didn't like the music. I adore it. And I want more. I'm frankly ticked off you intepreted my words any different.

I want evolving motifs and character themes. I want each arc to sound completely different, meaning that when using the same melodies, it be done with new instruments and progressions.

You can argue that the OP ost is good all you like, and I'll agree.

But you can't claim it's varied and evolving. It just isn't.

I think the reason you don't notice is because it's so good and fitting... But it is varied and evolving, specially post time skip.

I wish. I can't not notice the music. That's the problem.

I meant if you didn't notice the new music
