- I finally read One Piece to see if it's ACTUALLY good. To see if I would like it, I read 100 chapters which covers the beginning of One Piece until Arlong Park.

"And then I get to Arlong Park..." is one of the funniest, best and based statement when it comes to getting into One Piece LMAAAAOOOOOOOOOOO
That, and the panel of Nami asking for help. Every single reaction brings up that scene. 😂
thats the famous line for most new manga or anime one piece audience
I swear every one piece hater gets hooked on arlong park. It’s just peak man, one piece is phenomenal
One Piece hater mostly started on the wrong foot in anime by watching Dub instead of Sub and because of the dub they hate Luffy lol
@@liyenong2017if you watch in Dub you watching a cartoon . Thats not an anime anymore.
@@liyenong2017 maybe. Or it could be the pacing of the episodes although for me it has hardly been an issue. It’s subjective when it comes to the sub and dub version of the anime. Some people prefer one or the other, I prefer sub, but I can say the dub version isn’t bad either.
Yup, because the arc is really good, it can change haters to like One Piece.
But if you read or watch with a neutral heart, it should be in the first 3 eps (for anime) or in the first chapters of the manga, you will quite like it. And of course you will really love One Piece after Baratie or Arlong Park
Rs @@liyenong2017
One Piece has a snow ball effect. It also has gives you a hype arcs, then lets you breathe then back to the hype.
Until Sabaody. I felt like I couldn't breathe for 5 arcs straight. The return was so welcome. Also I haven't gotten to Egg Head yet, so I also haven't been able to breathe since the beginning of Dressrosa.
atm its hypeee tho
I thought that was what egghead island was going to be lol. A nice break after wano
@@FullmetalAsian and its one of the best arc in op
If you’re only reading/watching one piece for the “serious” moments or “the best of shounen” moments or “hype” moments and not enjoying the journey and the comedy then imo you’re not gonna enjoy the series as a whole, that’s one of the best aspects and main story beats of one piece. Characters are unique and have personality they have things about them you love and things about them that annoys you it’s just good writing tbh but to be fair character depth is not a lot of people’s cup of tea most people do like the “hype” moments of series like fights for example, I’d just recommend sticking to series like Jujutsu Kaisen, series like that will keep your brain stimulated throughout. One piece is a journey, an experience, a very real fantasy very different from most series, the “hype” moments hit so hard because of all the down time in between you get with these characters to get to know them.
I somewhat agree with you but you come off a bit pretentious lol it’s cringe
@@Chris-rj4bt not pretentious just stating my feeling on the series, it’s subjective not objective.
Edit: to clarify I don’t think anything is wrong with enjoying series that are more hype throughout like JJK that’s totally cool, just explaining why I enjoy series like OP more.
@@thewillofd4417 I agree with you. It might just turn out to be not his cup of tea. There are some videos that never have watched one piece reacting to Luffys recent transformation, and it doesn’t do it for them because it’s too silly and goofy, but for people who watch or read one piece, they know exactly why it’s the perfect transformation for him.
@@gavin5724 💯
Don't you worry, they'll get there. One serving is not enough, and you only notice more each time
He's shitting his pants reading arlong park. Wait til he reach water 7/enies lobby, he will definitely shit his brain out😂
and then I remember Long ring Long Land foreshadowing 1000+ chapter Mega Reveal about world and Sea...
and Say to myself... There isn't any chapter in One piece that doesn't add to how Goated the Writing of OP is....
Ihave tried hooking other anime... but Eventually I couldn't find even as nearly good writing...
OP is literally the best fiction story... not just limited to Anime...
Hollywood has some challenging rival stories but even they fade in front of how big of a Challenge is it to make a 1000+ ep series which gets better and better because of gas writing
I got one of my friends into OP about a year ago and he's slowly catching up. I was so excited for him to get to W7/EL. He hated them 😱
He hates Usopp, so that fight didn't land and he didn't even cry over the boat.
Then he liked Thriller Bark and is currently loving Impel Down.
All this to say, some arcs hit different for some people
@@BobbieTheFishI relate
I mean i like water 7 and EL HOWEVER usopp is my least fav straw hat and generally one of my most disliked characters
w7/el sent me into at least five emotional breakdowns
God usopp is looking from above
The major thing about One Piece is that it exists in a living, thriving world. Shit happens and develops without the Strawhats being there, and those events have MASSIVE implications to the story. This world isn't one that revolves solely around Luffy and his crew, though they do gradually play bigger and bigger roles in shaping the course of history. It's masterful long-form storytelling and some of the best world building you'll see in fiction.
One Piece is a series that sneaks up on you, it’s like men realising they in love fr; one day you gonna just be reading and go: “Ayo! What the fuq!?”
From there it’s wraps😂
THIS IS ME FR
Ayo pause
PAUSE but me fr
The pacing in the anime doesn’t bad intill way later on; the pacing in the earlier episodes are actually good.
The pacing starts to get really bad at Skypiea.
Bro finna bust when he gets to Alabasta
I just hope he don’t get fatigued like arcs get longer but the payoff is so much greater
i cant wait to drink his shi when he gets to water 7 mmm 🤤
One Piece is the kind of story that gets better and better as it goes. Also the kind of story that's better on re-read.
One piece is a build up type of story where it builds up slowly for immense pay off. East blue with arlong, alabasta with alabasta, and skypiea with skypiea so on and so forth. This story requires patience but you’ll be rewarded for it.
12:46 lucky for you, the little in between moments get a lot better and the bigger moments get bigger
There's no way someone watches/read one piece and say it's bad
10:31 if nothing else, Alabasta and Water 7/Enies Lobby (if you get there) hit just as hard as Arlong Park, if not more so. You in for peak
I think if he gets to water 7/ennies lobby, he’ll finish the series
Water7/Enies Lobby is like Arlong Park dialed up to 1000 lmao
Always a fan of seeing people read Onepiece and giving their thoughts. Imma subscribe just for that alone. And you seem the type to keep it honest, so I'm looking forward to seeing how your experience
KING of Shonen!!! The Greatest Epic ever written of our millennium!!! YOU ARE NOT READY
Bro please do another video like this. I promise there are soooo many gas moments in this series and arlong park is just a taste of what you'll get. Coming from a lover of the Big 3 as well, One Piece is the clear number 1.
east blue saga for me is what I call the trial saga of the whole one piece, once you enter the grand line, its just gets better and has so many foreshadowing, its a whole fun mysteries and adventure.
The in between bits before and after every major arc are building blocks for the world. Believe it or not the hypest moments are seeing the crew's actions effects rippling throughout the world
Prob already been answered but coming up is a lot of “what the fuck oda stop being weird” that become straight heat the closer you get to current. That mf whale is important man. Those mf giants are important man. The next gas moment as you read is gonna be drum island tho, which you aren’t too far off from
Nah man, we all promise it gets way less villain of the week-y
I used to be a one piece hater, I started watching it mostly to validate my hate... then I got to arlong park and now I'm at episode 1035
But yeah um, the story gets much bigger and much better
I do hope you work on catching up at some point because the current arc Egghead has not been missing a single chapter. It’s a long journey but good lord it is WORTH IT!
I would actually recommend checking out the live action surprisingly enough. Oda was the Executive Producer and it also turns down the weirder aspects of Sanji while still keeping his cool aspects intact
I feel like the live action is made for audience such as this guy who doesnt like light physical / goofy humour, more serious based audience. But I love despite live action going a more "neutral non crazy emotion route", Oda decides to turn up the goofiness ( with dark/ seriousness) even more in the recent manga chapters ahahha
@@liyenong2017 i came here from bookborn, this is accurate
Idk I think the worst part of the live action is the character writing and the changes they made tbh. They basically made every character a much blander and boring version of themselves without the little details of characterization Oda has. Especially Zoro he was so cringe in the live action
@@Chris-rj4bt I felt the same way as you do about the live action, tbh I kinda dislike the Live Action and how they act, it feels like the character changed a lot of their personality just to be more "normal", but I like the Real Life dynamic of the Cast members aha I feel like they are more Strawhats crew in real life rather than the live action lol (look how much more Emily Laughs in interview, and everyone speaks faster and louder) I think it's due to the director making the script to be "more" dark and serious tone like every single Live Action in Netflix (think Archie to Riverdale) Adult can enjoy Goofy, extreme facial expressions, just look at some Japanese (or even South Asian/ South East Asian) drama, but then again the western audience are not used to this, heck Japanese smile a lot more as a means of politeness too but western actors must keep a neutral face if nothing is going on etc. I guess a lot of new fans being some Mackenyu Girl fans like him for his looks but I am still too used to Zoro VA deep and strong voice, purely unmatched. I'm a Luffy fan girl though, still prefer anime Luffy I just can't imagine Inaki as a real life version but just an actor in Live Action
@@liyenong2017 Yeah I agree it’s pretty much a problem with every Netflix adaptation. They always make changes to make the story/characters darker in tone without actually understanding the character writing in the first place. In their attempt to make the show more mature they actually end up making it so much more immature and surface level. That’s pretty much the same issue I had with the avatar live action too. Idk why they keep doing this when it most of the time it’s not well received. They made the One Piece characters a shell of the former selves I seriously don’t understand how anyone who likes one piece likes the Netflix adaptation besides for the little Easter eggs they added.
I think the moment for me when one piece went from being my favorite manga to being my favorite piece of fiction period was the end of Skypeia. You’ll feel it shift. Everything before Skypeia is massive world building and exposition while also telling you these stories. Looking back from being caught up now, I just cannot believe we’ve come so far. Enjoy the journey and keep going. There’s way too many chapters, until there aren’t enough.
I started One Piece right before Gear 5 dropped in the anime. Im caught up now with the manga, but I can definitely understand how some arcs would’ve been hell to watch as a weekly viewer. But the payoffs are so large, and the current manga/anime arc is one of the best yet.
Wow same as me! I started like an episode or two after gear 5 in the anime. Now I’m all caught up with everything.
I am a One Piece superfan and as for your question when it gets "Gas" again on a level similar to Arlong Park, it's Alabasta.
That's a few Islands away from where you're at right now. Among those is Drum Island which has also been mentioned. As for that one it's a toss up on wether you'll like it or not, I can't make any promises one way or another.
I hope you'll enjoy your Journey, it's a long one, but it's a fun one! :)
Honestly I was fully on board from the second we saw Luffy lol. Hard to tell if One Piece is for u if ur not too keen on the inbetweens. Definitely worth trying tho.
I knew a guy that got like 300 episodes in (Marineford) and decided he was a One Piece hater. He said he only half paid attention. I convinced him to try it again and before he'd even gotten to the grand line he was saying it was the best story he's ever seen. (He was talking some serious shit before I finally wore him down and now he doesn't even remember being such a hater cuz he loves it that much now.)
Good for him I guess. I just don’t know of why you would half pay attention to this and hate it because you weren’t paying attention.
@@gavin5724 He said his friends were watching it in the same room as him so he was only kindof absorbing it. The reason I was so adamant about him giving it another try tho was because he called it a Dragon Ball knock-off. Which is probably the single most absurd and wrong thing I've ever heard. (The reasoning was something stupid too, like them both have fruit-based power systems.)
@@monster-enthusiast you can call a lot of anime that sence alot of anime have many different power systems. But at least he’s a fan now!
Congrats on finishing the Prologue. One Piece is a story that builds on itself. The more you see, the more you make connections, the more you get absorbed in the world and mysteries of the world, the more you learn.
Just you wait til Water 7 Saga. Also, Usopp is secretly the best character. Amazing development.
The problem most people experience reading One Piece is not sticking out long enough for it to pick up. This is a grand story in an even grander world and it takes time to introduce all the moving pieces. Glad you stuck it out.
One Piece is divided, the Prelude of the story is everything about the East Blue saga, the main story starts after Loguetown, exactly when they enter the Grand Line. The next peak is Drum and later Alabasta, after that there story progresses naturally.
There are a lot of cool moments in OP (Water7, Sabaody, the climbing in Drum Island and sooo many more), but personally I love it for the backstories, for the fleshed out characters that do not just have just cool moments, but a bit annoying and tragic and hilarious like actual people, for consistency and interconnectedness of the story as a whole. I genuinely believe that no one would be able to tell a story for 20+ years but still be able to develop the story and the characters in this organic and logical way as does Goda.
I don’t know your tastes, so I can’t tell you if you’ll like it or get tired between the cool moments, but if you are getting on this journey I do recommend to enjoy the slow moments as well, because they’ll come back and hit you like a ton of bricks with a lot of “that’s awesome” energy.
Even in Loguetown and Arlong Park there are things that will come back a hundred or a few hundred chapters later with an impressive kick.
Enjoy! 😊
Personally I don’t mind the anime’s pacing but if you started on the manga, I highly recommend not switching to the anime. Especially post time skip if you end up reading that far.
Honestly only when you catch up is when you're going to truly appreciate the earlier arcs or maybe arcs you enjoyed less. Cause the thing with one piece is that it's not cause the arc's over that it's not going to be connected to anything in the future anymore. Oda's pretty great at being able to weave a story that's not just arc after arc where you almost forgot what happened in the past or it doesn't matter to the story anymore etc. Even now we still get to see characters return or plot points that get more clear cause of stuff that happened hundreds of chapters ago
I'm pretty sure all of us knew u meant the Nami hat scene when u said u screenshotted something in Arlong Park lol
The beginning of the series (in both anime & manga) hits people very differently depending on their taste. Some people vibe with it right away; others can't see past its immature exterior and drop out early. Most of the fandom insists that you have to read/watch through Arlong Park before you decide on it, because Arlong Park really shows you what the series is about, and what to expect going forward in terms of storytelling. In essence, the story does have a slow start, and even after Arlong it continues to slowly build arc after arc, building and building and building until before you know it you're in GOAT territory.
Personally, I will say that the manga has FAR superior pacing and artwork than the anime, but the anime shines brightest in the emotional moments (which OP has many of), making them hit 5x harder than the manga - due a lot in part to 10/10 voice acting and score. It will get you crying. If you want an experience which is somewhere in between, I suggest looking up One Pace, which is an edited version of the anime, copying the pacing of the manga and cutting out the filler. The anime artwork still never reaches top tier, but I think the trade-off for getting the audio is worth it.
I immediately liked One Piece in the first 2 eps, but almost dropped it because of the Ussop arc, luckily there was the Baratie arc and also Arlong Park,Especially the moment when Sanji tells Luffy about his dream, The All Blue. I like this moment, especially in the manga panel, because when Sanji starts talking about his dream, he really looks like a 5 year old child who happily tells his parents about his dreams, even though he is an adult, and still fighting for his dreams.
And of course at Arlong Park, God Tier moment, Nami asked Luffy for help.
I am absolute down for these reviews to continue.
Next peak in Drum Island, then Alabasta. Water 7/Enies Lobby will blow your mind
4:32 while I definitely get what you're saying, to be fair, you see someone get shot in the head in the first chapter of one piece. Now I havent read captain underpants in a while but I dont remember them covering that 😬
I'm a one piece hater but this was cool. You should definitely do it again once you hit the next big moment
Shiiit I might have to
@@omegaproplus next arcs will have gas moments but once you see a snow island, just know its all gas from there
It is an absolute enigma to me how you can hate such a great story with so much heart and charm. You must be a pretty bitter person.
But have you completed the Arlong trial?
Your opinion is invalid if you haven't, and simply mistaken if you have. It's okay to be wrong, but ignorance is a choice.
@@furorteutonicus9045Not liking something makes you a bitter person? Dude I haven't even read One piece but y'all are absolute weirdos for that one. He didn't even say any reason why he hated it, he didn't put anyone down for liking it and yet you're calling him a bitter person. If he's a bitter person then what does that make you?
Doflamingo shows up after alabasta during mock town Jaya for a second and a weird walk along with kuma. When you read that in retrospect it looks like the most contrasting scene.
Some people forget that op has been around for very long. If you come in starting op and you've been spoiled with new age flashy-ass manga and anime (most of which are inspired to some extent by oda and hos work) then you're bound to be disappointed as the older arcs were drew and animated in a dated meta (that's what was poppin in 99-early 2000s. ) if youre a big animation fan, just wait for the Wit Remake.
The first 100 are the beginning of his career. Do you wanna compare that shit to your first video? Obviously it gets better with time when an author commits their existence to a single story. If you can't understand that ambition, its on you...
Whose gonna tell him arlong park isn't even top 5 arcs of one piece.
10:24-10:30 : The longer One Piece goes on, the more one thing becomes obvious: the first 100 chapters or so are basically the prologue of the story. And while in a way, the Loguetown arc kind of gives it away by the town being described as the 'beginning and the end' in terms of narrative exposition, from a pure consumer point of view it has only been recently that the story has become lengthy enough that it makes sense to see all of East Blue as a warm-up to the story proper. So when you ask 'when does it get good again', you need to remember that the arcs in East Blue are 99% about introducing the skeleton crew of the strawhats as they come together, which are challenges Naruto and Bleach don't have because their main characters already pre-exist in the social constructs known as towns, schools and classmates and all the dynamics between characters that pre-exist. It makes the start of One Piece incredibly slow by slowly picking up one person after another, and it is only with Nami's arc that there's an established cast with dynamics that are being established where not every arc has Luffy introducing himself a la 'I am Luffy, I am made of rubber and I will be the pirate king!'.
Arlong Park shines because it finally manages to truly drive home the integral concept of 'found family' that makes the primary One Piece cast one people enjoy. (Yes, even Usopp.) This is something that will only continue to feature more heavily as their relationships are tested in various ways, and this 'human element' is also what future arcs and potential additions to the crew will focus on. The first major saga you are about to read (which consists out of roughly 3 arcs) still continues to set up a lot of elements that will matter later in the series, but between Luffy's growth as a captain and new crewmate(s) that have their own places and outlooks in life, I can promise that at least one arc is as strong as Arlong Park in terms of emotional storytelling, whereas the others are more of the 'fun adventure' types or 'defeat the big bad' type of encounter. Different people love different arcs more: One Piece is a mixed bag in that way that caters to a lot of different interests. But from here on, the story will slowly start becoming far more intertwined and complex. The same variety will be found in sagas that follow. (And to be clear: sagas are groupings of individual arcs that are more-or-less connected in some way, since arcs are typically a 1:1 match to the location being visited while also being their own story/conflict.)
In the past, I have tried to graph my appreciation of the various arcs / enjoyment over the course of the series, and the real value there is that the East Blue saga is a great baseline. I might give Baratie 7 points and Arlong Park a 10 while the stuff prior to that are between 4-6. Save for maybe the rough start, I consider all arcs of the next saga at least 7s. The best arc is just as good as Arlong Park to me, perhaps even a bit better. The saga after that? It is a polarizing one, but for me it is a solid 8-9 for all arcs. The one after that? Lowest is probably a 6, but the other others are probably like 15 points each. The stuff that follows is a bit harder to pigeon hole, but there's some definitely 12 point bangers on AVERAGE. Next fresh saga is a bit meh, and easily ranks the lowest in recent history by being like 6-8, depending on where I put the focus. The one after that? Give me a 10 and a 12. The one after that still? Probably 10 and 13. The one after that is impossible to rate, but let's just go with there being a 14 in there. As a whole, you can say that a linear trend line is undeniably positive: both the peaks and lows are almost always better than during the previous arcs.
Now, all of these numbers do not mean that for example Arlong Park is WORSE than some of those arcs that come later on, nor does it mean that the last arcs are the best the series has to offer: it just means that I appreciate the arcs more for what they bring to the table. One Piece becomes incredibly complex in terms of its story compared to its humble beginnings, and it is simply impossible to compare a simple fight between two pirate crews with the mess that involves half a dozen different entities with their own needs that have sometimes been foreshadowed half a dozen arcs earlier. It is the difference between loving the fable of Sleeping Beauty and Game of Thrones: the latter doesn't make the former bad; it's just not comparable. I love the simple beginnings, but when the scale of the conflict ramps of to kingdoms rather than villages, and the flashbacks start to involve entire previous generations, you are simply dealing with an entirely different beast. East Blue arcs are like a fast food burger to the seven course dinner that is the Wano saga as a whole.
Oda does a lot of smaller slower paced arcs which can slow the series down but the highs of the bigger arcs make them worth it imo.
One piece is at its peak once all the characters come together
well you're lucky bc The One Piece anime rework cuts out a lot of the padding and filler. I'm totally excited for it
As a One Piece fan, I’d advise you to join in on the journey before it’s too late. If you enjoyed Arlong Park then you’ll love the rest of the series. The world building is the best thing about this series and how endearing the characters are. You’ll love it, I guarantee it.
Also, your subscribers will explode if you cover One Piece because you do have a great TH-cam personality. I highly recommend you continue with the series. It’ll change your life.
Water 7 saga is gas. There’s a literature professor who has went on and said it’s some the best pieces of fiction he has ever read in his life. One Piece gets better and better as the world expands. Every major event affects everything you have read from the beginning. There isn’t a more detailed world in anime/manga. It’s a masterpiece.
I hope you continue with the review videos as you read more. I’m watching the series right now and hearing your opinion on the arcs is fun to to hear
please keep us updated im here for these
Did bro actually said that he didn’t like old one piece but liked old Dbz when it’s the same animation studio???☠️☠️☠️
Bro is not ready for Ennies Lobby, Impel down and Marineford if arlong park got him geeking like that 💀
One Piece, especially early on, is supposed to be like a "Saturday morning cartoon" in a lot of aspects.
It's interesting that even a lot of people who crap on One Piece for looking/being goofy don't expect it to be so "cartoony" when they try getting into it. Not realising what they're getting into with One Piece is why many people struggle to get into it. They expect it to be more like Naruto, Bleach, etc.
Even some people who are deep into One Piece forget/don't fully understand the type of story it is exactly and take it too seriously sometimes.
Just an observation lol.
You should watch one pace if you wanna watch the anime. Its a fan edit by a group of fan that that cuts out the filler and edits out the really long drawn out scenes. Ive been using one pace and honestly it one of my favorites series right now. Cuts the whole anime in half while losing nothing of value.
The bigger moments aren't as big without the smaller moments. Oda delves deeper into the world and deeper into his darkness, but it's always One Piece.
There is some cringe, some contrivance, some procrastination, but the journey is worth it
Water 7/Enies Lobby blows everything before it out of the water imo, if you get to that you will become a fan and some of the arcs after enies lobby are even better.
Water 7 is when I started loving One Piece, but Alabasta is also an enlightening moment in the series.
There's a reason why One Piece is a pirate series themed. It embodies it even in the pacing...it's an adventure.
Unless you're in it for the ride, and enjoy the "journey" instead of wanting to get to the hype parts, you would have a hard time getting into it.
The slow parts of the series is what makes the climactic parts of it impactful, One Piece is all about the world building, the little details, the slow buildup and the big crescendo...there will NEVER be another series like One Piece in our existence because the audience nowadays have shorter attention spans and One Piece caught the perfect timing and the perfect opportunity to create something like this.
Imagine you joining a pirate crew and being stuck in the boat with some eccentric people...would rather worry about getting to the next destination right away, or would you rather enjoy the moments with your crewmates uncovering treasures and mysteries along the way?
Naruto and Bleach are pure hype ngl, but One Piece is a love letter to ANY MEDIUM of storytelling.
Very nicely put. I tend to think of Bleach as gorgeous hype action art with flimsy excuses for characters, while Naruto is more well-balanced in comparison but of which the female characters are utterly two-dimensional, while the world as a whole is lacking despite trying to scale up. Its best story arc is the Nagato/Pain arc, and the second best clash (IMHO) is the one where Asuma Sarutobi sacrifices himself. The rest is mid or worse despite having good combat choreography. Not a problem if you read/watch just for the spectacle of the fights.. but that's not all a story is, you know?
One Piece has the worst combat choreography of the three (but still well in the 'above average' to 'good' grade!), but when it comes to the depth of personalities and character, the worldbuilding and narrative storytelling, it always hovers between four and five stars. Where with the other two series I tend to define them on 'this is what they are better than One Piece at', for One Piece I am satisfied with almost every aspect and just accept that 'yeah, Oda's fights are a bit worse, but perfection doesn't exist and everything has some things it isn't as good at as others'.
One Piece is the only fantasy epic that is drawn like a comic, and IMHO it is fairer to compare it to things like the Wheel of Time, Game of Thrones and Lord of the Ring than it is to most other manga which have very little in-depth worldbuilding going for them.
@@Aviertje OMG FINALLY SOMEONE WHO'S GOT THE SAME OPINION AS ME.
One Piece battle/fight choreo is dogshit but other than that it's phenomenal. It's a very stimulating series and although very childish which puts A LOT of people off but that's exactly the series' biggest strength. Oda's skill in storytelling and how page turn works is just *chef's kiss*.
Also I noticed that a lot of One Piece criticism comes from the anime mainly the pacing and Nami clones that aren't even that bad in the manga. most of them are spread out all throughout the series and doesn't even interfere with the reading experience compared that to AOT, a highly regarded series who has the same face syndrome in not only the main cast but the fuc*ing NPCs as well that you can't even tell who's who but isn't criticized as much because most people consumed it through the anime which was done very well. I really hope WIT would not disgrace OP like Toei did.
all of the lows in the story are just there to set up for the highs
Read it all. And watch the peak scenes in the anime. The OP soundtrack is great and hits. I can't imagine OP without the anime soundtrack.
Arlington Park in the anime is amazing and well paced and it's in like the first 40eps so I don't see how yall ain't fw that.
The anime pacing is kinda shit bro,but now i'm use to it,so it's fine
If Alabasta hits good enough, as it should, and water 7 hooks you with enies lobby, then you’ll get to impel down/marine ford. If you get there and enjoy you’ll get past time skip easy, once your past time skip EVERYTHING leads to Doflamingo and you’ll push to get there then you’ll see how close you are to current and catch up, it was the same for me my guy 😂
I love me some DB, Naruto and Bleach but the OP anime is the only one of those I can constantly rewatch and not get tired of it. But that has more to do with the story than anything else.
Please keep reading, it only gets better. The down moments are still a build up to the peak moments and even when it feels that the scenes you are reading are not important, they will be one relevant later on and they will hit you.
If he’s not into goofy character design and wacky comedy, then he’s gonna hate later arc characters. There are some weird ass character designs, but a lot of the fandom like that about one piece.
I think the anime surpassed the manga in whole cake island / wano arc
subbed and added to the list of people who got into onepiece in 2024, we shall be following your continuing journey into the peak of storytelling. welcome to the crew
The advantage One Piece has over Bleach and Naruto is that it's the fucking tutorial level. It's a romantic story, and you'll start to realize veeeeery slowly that this isn't a story focused on arcs, or on checkpoints. One Piece is a story about our crew learning to overcome, learning to be better. It's going to challenge them, they'll fracture, you'll see them break apart before coming together. It's going to be a long journey, but if you liked arlong park, you're going to love the story in general. The themes are consistent from when luffy jumps out of the barrel and inspires koby to fight for himself. Luffy won't carry people, he just enables and inspires them.
I swear to God, one piece is too good for some people. One piece is an actually great story. It's about themes and characters and being on a journey with them and all these dumbasses care about is hype bullshit. Like, fuck off then, jfc.
There is literally a recent interview with a Naruto editor who said they knew they could never compete with one piece when it comes to story and emotion, so they competed with the art and action. There's a part where he quite literally says "Naruto is so successful because most people have low reading comprehension" and I see this every time when people complain about one piece being goofy, stupid, boring, annoying, etc. No, mf, one piece is fucking magic and I feel sorry for people who can't see it because they're obsessed with shallow hype bullshit.
You need a hug bro Lol
This was an interesting thing to listen to just knowing how your feelings about OP was initially LOL I'm glad youve been enjoying some parts tho. I think I wouldve been more open to going further into the story if the art style just wasnt so ugly to me There are only 3 characters that I like in OP but theyre not enough to get me to read all these chapters. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR FUTURE OP ARC OMEGA~
Art style is peak fym
@@royalfun1031 called an opinion LMFAO fym
@@eunibuni It's unique not ugly
Would be a shame to miss out on an epic just for that
Bros going to be preaching One Piece's greatness once he finishes Alabasta
One Piece is a slow burn. It has an amazing story but if you’re only interested in the peaks it may not be for you. Oda does alot of set ups but it all comes together and once you reach the peaks they really are amazing and worth the wait
It keeps getting better is all we'd say
Understand that peak moments are composed of little moments that seem like nothing until they matter. The connections that Oda makes with his world building and story telling is insane. There is an entire arc that you would swear is bs that has a major connection in a future arc. Just the little subtle moments that hit like a Mike Tyson punch when they matter. Not gonna lie I hated ussop and Luffy when I first tried the anime years ago, they take a bit to warm up to. Then all of a sudden you end up going back to those cringe moments and smiling, because you actually know these characters like real people.
to me personally it sounds crazy to be able to rewatch naruto but not one piece, but thats personal preference for you :D i like the old school animation of early one piece, but the manga will always be the superior medium to consume the story in (which i personally feel is the case too for naruto and bleach). but i absolutely do recommend giving the live action netflix version a try, i still cant believe that they actually pulled it off to make something crazy as one piece as believable and watchable in a live-action format. at the very least the incredible effort they put into the sets, the music, the production in general and the love the actors have for their characters is very very noticable and i appreciate it so much.
Alabasta is starts chapter 155 btw its not to far for you to hit one of the BIG arcs
One Piece gon get a remastered version of the anime soon next year
Arlong park is small compare to Water 7/Ineslobi or Marindford. You in for a surprise if you keep watching.
PLEASE do another video like this when you finish Alabasta
I would love a part 2 to this video if you keep up with the series! I was the same way in that I was not super interested in One Piece; like I watched it as a kid, but I didn't really keep up with it. Two years ago i decided to read and watch One Piece, and I really liked it.
The One Piece anime will get a remake made by Studio Wit. since the first episode of One Piece aired in 1999 so if you still wanted to watch I'd say maybe hold on till info on that comes out.
When you get to know what Luffy is actually about you'll start liking it. I don't know why people miss the fact that Oda shows you something that "feels" light hearted but if your actually consuming it with a open mind you notice that shit is DEEP!
The beautiful part of One Piece is that the first 100 chapters and all the chapters, all the arcs, are important even 1000 chapters later.
Since it seems like we came up around the same era I'll put it to you like this: Of the big 3, Naruto & Bleach get off to better/stronger starts than OP does but the difference is generally people feel Naruto & Bleach get worse as the story goes on whereas OP continued to get better up to even now; it wasnt always my favorite but that reason is why it's my favorite now. And not just story-wise, Oda's artwork gets better over time as well (he was like 21-22 when OP first started IIRC).
OP is really a journey in every sense of the word, there's peaks & valleys like in any good journey so overall you gotta just enjoy the ride.
When does it get gas again. In every 100 chapters or so. Then there are entire arcs that are absolute gas like ennies lobby marineford saga and even modern arcs like egghead island, whole cake island, wano. There are arcs here that are absolutely insane.
Keep reading gang it’s genuinely gets so good
water 7 is the point of no return
Bro your in east blue your in the intro it gets better you just gotta enjoy the ride it grows more n more on you there are like 3-4 arcs that are rough but bleach n naruto better is crazy
Gotta read it for youtube content. I'll definitely check in for 100 chapter updates.
Arabasta is really good, but Water Seven Arc, that's like one of the best.
It's just different in taste, i can't finish bleach and naruto. But i'm still following one piece closely.
U gotta love God Usopp 😂🔥🔥🔥
I will say this big dog. One piece is the epitome of enjoy the journey to your goals. But keep going it gets really good
100 chapters isn’t even a 10th of the story, just wait my boy, just wait.
God i was the exact same when i watched the live action. I was vibin already cuz i freaking adored buggy, but good god the ‘help me’ scene in Arlong park is what pushed me to truly give this a chance. Mainly because i saw alot of myself in nami when it came to that scene.
It’s giving Saturday morning cartoon, but these days in 2024 I’m glad I decided to watch that Saturday morning cartoon 20 years ago on FoxBox & Toonami! Just shows OP was ahead of its time.
Gotta watch ONE PACE. Filler removed
That's why most of the fans recommends is that you read the whole is East Blue saga or at least finish Arlong Park!
If you didn't like it and it's not your thing; then stop, because you probably won't like the rest of the series. And If something sticks and you ended up liking it, you probably won't mind reading the whole manga! 🤣
Because East Blue sets the tone for the entire series! Yes, in some saga the tone of the manga do change, but it mostly stays the same! That Goofy ahh rubber boy fights big bad for his friends! 🤣
