I’m actually excited to be getting into one piece. So far I’m enjoying everything. The live action is to thank. Give it a try if you haven’t.
This is what Oda wanted!
He wanted to reach people, who wouldn’t give One Piece a Chance because of its length or because they are not into anime/manga.
I’ve been a fan of One Piece for the past 19 years (I started when I was 14 years old). My husband isn’t into anime/manga but he really enjoyed the live-action series and he can’t wait for the next season. I’m so thrilled to finally being able to discuss One Piece with him.
Gaslight him till he watches the Anime 😂 i used to hate people who peered me to watch OP because it’s so fkn long.. welp i watched the live action and i’m hooked, finished catching up the Anime just now 😅
@riardomilos8014 we've all been there. I remember going to my friend, "Alright, where do I have to get to before this gets good? How are you obsessed with this show?
Finally made it to Arlong Park on my third attempt after this recommendation, and immediately became that friend

I was hooked on One Piece from the very beginning, but before watching it, I had a very bad prejudice towards this show because of its goofiness. I'm so glad that I started watching it anyway. It was actually the German opening song that got me started watching.
Arlong Park made me completely fall in love with the show and once I had caught up with the anime, I switched to the manga. I really love how One Piece evolves over time. Everything gets bigger and the Straw Hats get involved in so many crazy things. Now the last saga has started after Wano and it's showing that we are getting into the last part of the story. I'm so hyped!!!
I got my eldest sister into the live action -- her reaction at the end was "I want this never to end" She has no idea lololol
@@riardomilos8014same 😂 I’ve trashed it since 2002 saw the live action and I’m a straw hat now 🤷🏽♂️
One Piece is my favorite media of all time thank you for giving it a chance. Hope you’ll enjoy the journey !
Greatest story ever told.
I think you meant to say story, not media. Media is the form in which stories are told like anime, manga, movie films, books, etc.
@@username-ql8ox I read that more like "favorite piece of media". But yeah you're right
A certain YT Video title said it best
“The wonderful world of
One Piece”
I can’t believe I used to hate one piece 😂
The live action finally made me get into the manga. I'm at Dressrosa, and I heavily recommend you keep going. It's only gonna get better.
Same here, watched the live action and fell in love with it, and now I’m in the manga all the way to Wano. 🥴
The manga is so, so strong. Where the pacing and animation regularly fails the story, the manga remains unmatched. Although I have an immense sweet spot for the anime sub accents and opening themes.
Dressrosa is such a good arc
I'm always on board with new people discovering the anime after seeing the Live Action. Glad you enjoyed it!
After being a fan of OP for most of my life (weekly follower since 2004), I can say that Oda's work is truly a masterpiece and I'm glad that it is becoming more well known even outside of the Anime community!
This is so amazing. I absolutely love hearing people get into the anime/manga because of the live action. It really feels like one piece is becoming a household name and who would have thought it would be because of a live action adaptation. I'd love to see you document your journey through videos because trust me you're in for the adventure of a lifetime.
Although it is true that Oda did help this project. I dont think we should discredit matt Owens and the rest of the writers, and everyone working on the show. Those are the People that really made this. They are massive one piece fans and know the story. This is the reason why they wanted to make it. And Oda was willing to let them make it BECAUSE they know the story so well and love it. This is why Oda has never let anyone make a live action before, and why this was the right time (+ cgi is better these days)
At last someone said it....
I was getting annoyed by all the underserved skeptisism again Hollywood writers that people are showing against one piece LA writers (Matt Owens).
Matt Owens is the reason the one piece LA exists and there is nothing wrong in trusting someone with genuine care and respect for one piece...
Yes. Matt Owens had to personally prove to Oda that he understood One Piece at its core. And they had to not only translate the work to English, but the writing and humor to be more westernized and to work for live action, and change the structure to 8 hour-long episodes drastically shortening run time while still making it feel like One Piece. It must have been incredibly difficult.
People like to blame hollywood writers, but more often than not, the problem is executives making demands of writers that work against the material. Hollywood producers who often seem to disdain the industry and audiences to begin with and don't understand or care about the art.
As much as Netflix and Tomorrow Studios have messed up in the past, I have to admire that they gave these writers the room to do what they felt was needed.
That said, I am still confident that without Oda's heavy involvement, the show would have suffered a lot (especially if, as it seems, he had the power to say no to the producers which even the showrunners might not have had)
As a veteran fan of 24 years in this community (started at age 11) here are the 3 golden rules:
1. Don't skip. It's about the journey. There's so many lessons and good behaviour to be learned from these characters. If you skip, you will miss most of that.
2. Don't listen to youtubers. They're in it for the money and create fanservice content, which the fandom forgets is entertainment as well.
Which brings us to
3. Don't trust the fandom. They'll lead you astray in a heartbeat and before you know it you're posting toxic comments and attacking Oda-sensei because you were led astray. Stick with the manga/anime canon (anime adds canon, such as original episodes, and PG-fied scenes).
I got to say you’re one of the only people I’ve seen recommend not skipping and I agree, the more time you spend with the crew the more they grow on you.
@@WahooSerious I am honestly disgusted with how many fans recommend speedruns or one pace or skipping entire arcs, some even skipped all pre-timeskip and just started with Water 7 as their first episodes..
And you can tell.
The community changed.
The mood changed.
The ambiance changed.
No one's watching out of love for and companionship with these characters
They do it because they want to be part of the hype...
The Strawhat mentality within the community has as good as completely evaporated. It's just me and a few other lonely pirates left out there, spreading the good word.
I am mòst dissapointed in the influencers and fellow millenials (and older). Because you had 1 job, teach them our ways.
And instead you all caved and started using the ways of these new fans instead... the disrespect towards one of thè best writers and artists of the millennium, it's appalling.
And when you say that, these days; they gang up on you and say childish toxic crap like "you must be fun at parties"
Well, I don't burn the DJ at the parties I'm at; so idk wtf they think they're doing, disrespecting a man that has sacrificed so much for us. Show some g'damn respect, zoomers and younger ones; and traitorous milennials and older generations.
Not only they closely monitored by Oda, the showrunner(s) also a huge fans especially Matt Owen, so they understand what the fans want and don't want to ruin it bc they're also the fans.
Looking forward for your journey 🎉
And yet Matt Owens showed as much understanding of the series as people who only care about power levels.
The live-action sucked ass.
@@GutsTheBeast The live action has been out for almost 3 months now, basically every video on youtube reviewing it is singing its praises, spanning hardcore fans to people who do not watch any anime at all, and including the guy who made this video we're commenting on, so maybe the live action isn't for you, but you cannot POSSIBLY say it "sucked ass" when it's overwhelmingly getting praised from all corners and be anything but a joke.
@@GutsTheBeastcompared to One Piece, it's remarkably mid. Compared to 95% of everything the west has put out in the last decade, it's top tier.
@@GutsTheBeastSure it needed some improvements like the acting in certain scenes which I doubt will improve next season since they are using the same actors. But I don’t agree that it completely sucked it had a mystery men vibe to it. Not everything has to be Oscar worthy.
@@GutsTheBeastNah you're just seeking attention.
Watching One Piece was the best decision of my life because One Piece is the reason why i start watching Anime at the first place.
its just so wholesome and Funny mostly the backstories are so good
And a tear jerker

@@creamythecat8258 from episode 1st to know i always think that Sanji is the most kindhearted person in series but now kuma😭😍

*in the first place
I was also disappointed at how character development wasn´t entirely there, how Kuro turned into a horror movie villain, how lots of characters that are important to their backstories are missing and how sometimes the introduction felt rushed, like with Nami, BUT I understand why it had to be done in order to actually make this happen. Nami´s scene of stabbing her arm I was very worried about but bawled my eyes out because of the amount of pain that was in her voice as if it was actually her. Spectacular.
Enjoy the journey, it truly is a wondrous thing to be involved in and if there was ever anything I could forget every detail about and watch again for the first time, it´s One Piece for sure.
Yeah, the biggest issue of this season that I really hope will be resolved in future seasons, was the limited time. If they had been given the 10 episodes they wanted, it could have been an entire tier better.
Ive been watching One Piece since 2001. I am currently in my 30s. And it is my favorite piece of fiction ever. Its so popular and has been going on for so long. Its always amazing when new people start getting into it.
My little brother started the anime because he watched the LA. I started the manga in August and finished in September. Both my parents loved the LA, and ask me more about the stories and characters all the time , they’re hyped for season 2
Coming from a long time One Piece fan, I think the community always love a fresh take of a new enjoyer going through the arcs. I'm down to watching your opinion on the series as you get deeper and deeper into it, you don't realise what an amazing story you're getting in to 😂
As for filler, I totally agree, they were tedious for me to go through as well. The only exception here is the G8 arc, it's filler but it's actually amazing and well worth the watch.
Loved the video! I'm honestly amazed at how well the adaptation turned out and am looking forward to the next seasons of the live action 😁
Would be great to watch your reactions to the series over time
It’s such a rollercoaster
And yes skip the filler but don’t skip the G8 arc right after sky island that’s an arc worth watching.
G8 is canon just like Sniper Island.
It's in our heart.
G8 is important because they will introduce Con D. Oriano
@@DizzyNutz69 It's filler.
Long Ring Long Land is also a must watch
bro, it was a joke @@GutsTheBeast
I also started the anime because of the live action. I went into it a bit more casual in early October, but now I'm at episode 257.. about to watch more.
Bro is in for peak
I'm now on ep 361..
@@helloimjustb W how was enies lobby
@@xanidydexidy the best to me so far. I really enjoyed it. I 1000% knew I'm in it for the long run, no turning back, after Water 7/Enies Lobby. Just finished Thriller Bark.. also really enjoyed! Really amazing story telling. How things are coming together, connecting details from 200 to nearly 300 episodes ago. Insane to actually type out those numbers lol
@@helloimjustb oh boy love to hear that and it's only gonna get better
Welcome to the crew, but if you want to skip fillers, do not skip G8 filler ark, which is after skypia. It's the best one and you don't want to miss it
this is my guilty pleasure, watching people finally discover the depth of quality in long enjoyed shows.. you have a lot to look forward to xD
It’s a fun ride, and it’s amazing. The LA had a big impact on me as I was intimidated by the length of the series and was aware of the VERY problematic material in it. But after I set that aside it’s a great read and it has well written characters with a lot of dense story and I love it for it. It looks so fun!
What "very" problematic material? I hope you don't come up with woke stuff such as "Sanji beeing sexist"...
I literally did the same thing. Never heard of one piece till the live action. So glad I took the chance and started the anime after watching the live action. Worth it
Watching this video I was like "wouldn't it be great if he started making videos about One Piece?"... And then you asked if you should! Yes man, you definitely should.
I strongly encourage to at least accompany anime with manga, because even though anime is great, manga is even better, and comparing them is interesting thing itself.
It’s not as crazy as you think. It’s not actually 61 episodes. That thing you looked up includes a whole filler arc plus a bunch of filler episodes and an arc the live action didn’t cover. In reality it was closer to 43 episodes and on top of that each live action episode is an hour long while each anime episode is 20 minutes long. Thus each live action episode is the equivalent of 3 anime episodes. So (8x3=24) it’s more like condensing 43 episodes into 24 instead of 61 episodes into 8.
one Piece has become my ‘friends’ series. 900 episodes in all the characters are my homies and I never want it to end. ❤
Driving a new audience to One Piece was the goal of the live action adaptation... And seeing so many scepts to give it a shot now is awesome ^^
You wanna talk about your journey than do it... Its always great to hear a newby talk about his opinion... But Sagas wont work long... Arcs might be better ^^
And about fillers... They might not be canon but If you enjoy the characters and the crewdynamic its worth watching
Your view of not worrying about trying to watch 1000 eps and just taking it as a slow journey is my same view
I started one piece purely by accident back in May and i caught up in early November on the anime. And its become one of my all time favorite things
Omg pls do one piece videos! As a long term fan its always fun to watch new people come in and enjoy it. Also, Anime pacing is dreadful in some parts especially in dressrosa (some people find skypiea also dragged out) so you can switch to manga for them. Anything that works for you.
I'd love to hear from your journey throughout the arcs! I've been watching Dudes talking Magna's videos for the past few months and as a long time OP fan, it's honestly a huge joy to watch people go on the journey themselves and seeing their reactions, the shocks, the sadness and joy, all the foreshadowing and theories. It's a bit like reliving it myself for the first time again
One piece is definitely worth experiencing. I just have one recommendation for those who want to skip "filler"; watch the G8 arc. It is such good "filler" that it has been soft canonized later in the story (with a key character being seen in the background). It does not disrupt anything, it actively moves plot elements forward, it doesnt overstay its welcome, and it is just another adventure for the crew to go on. Saying anything more starts to spoil it, but i have heard nothing but praise for the G8 arc.
I think I can speak for a lot of the community when i say we love to see new people do reactions
Like the others said, enjoy the journey. It’s a good one. And if you ever feel the need to summarize your thoughts on the arcs you’ve watched, it’d be a good idea if you’re up for it. Alabasta is the one that kept me in to go up to date.
The title is so fucking true after watching the Netflix show it made me want to watch the anime
Im here for any new fan making reviews of the arca. Seeing someone else experience the show/manga for the first time is the next best thing.
Good idea on skipping the filler too, but dont skip the G8 filler, its the one the fan base almost unanimously agrees should be canon because of how good it is.
God, I love that you’re already so in love and that’s only at the end of East Blue. bro, you are in for a wild ride and life will be good.
Welcome aboard and hope you enjoy your stay! Like many other said, skip all fillers except for G8. If you're serious about making videos documenting your watch (and I hope you are), I would recommend doing the East Blue Saga as one video but going arc by arc here on out. You can for sure group some of the shorter arcs together like the first few arcs in the Alabasta Saga, but individual arcs will get long and/or incredibly dense information-wise so covering by sagas can get overwhelming.
welcome to the journey! youre gonna love what comes next if the first 100 eps already have you this hyped
IMPORTANT side note tho, if you are gonna skip filler episodes, just make sure you do NOT skip the G8 arc (starts at episode 196), it's widely known as one of the best and funniest filler arcs ever made, and i can personally vouch and say you should definitely give it a watch
When I originally watched one piece I was skipping filler, but I watched all of G8 and didn’t realize it was filler until my friend told me that he skipped it. A huge shame because that is also one of my favorite mini arcs.
As a fan of One Piece for close to 15 years, it is still unbelievable to hear One Piece described as THE anime. It took so long outside of Japan for this to happen.
When I first read and watched it, it felt like everyone in the west was talking about Naruto and Bleach. One Piece was only part of the "big three" because it was so popular in the east. But, to me, it was just so much better than those two, yet so much less appreciated here. It felt like a massive injustice to my favorite piece of media ever.
So nowadays, when I'm reminded that it has finally become truly appreciated globally to the point of being a phenomenon, I still feel a bit like I'm dreaming. It's a wonderful time to be a One Piece fan, old and new.
(Also, I love the OPLA. Although it doesn't quite have the same impact as the anime and manga, I actually think it serves as a better overall introduction to the story because of the pacing, consistency, and broad appeal. There will absolutely be people who might have dropped the anime early on except for having seen the live-action.)
would you consider doing some reaction videos? Or would you do more summary videos of certain arcs? Any way you do it though, it will be great to be able to follow along with your journey!
"Watch the f***ing show!"
Something tells me that's a phrase you've heard a few times in the last couple decades.
Welcome to the crew.
Everyone else... watch it again
Started watching One Piece anime 6 months ago and became weekly watcher 1 week ago. One of the best expirience I ever had, so I hope you have a great journey as me.
I hated the anime, years of friends telling me to watch it and I told them no, I hated the character designs as well as clips I had seen. Then came the announcement of the live action and I wanted it to fail, I wanted it to be like all other live actions. Then I came out and I heard only good, so I begrudgingly watched the first episode and then the next and then next. Now I am on episode 385 of the anime. Still not my favorite Anime, not even in the top 15, but I can respect it now.
Now my dream is for a high quality Berserk live action.
I just got to Wano and I'm so sad. I don't want to be caught up, I don't want it to end.
the live action made me start the anime too! it seems like a lot of people had the same experience
Bro i've been sleeping on one piece for 20 years and now i've finished it, i cant get enough of it.
Its now my favorite show ever
There is one filler Arc that you should check, straight after Sky island. I skipped it when I watched, but now when my gf start watching OP I watched and was shocked how good that filler was.
Aye my boy glad to see u giving ur take on OPLA. It was my gateway anime to anime when I was younger and my favourite untill overlord came along.
Same thing. Watched the live action when it came out and binged watched the anime. Just caught up with it last week.
Amazing. Can’t believe I ignored it for 20 years
There are 3 arcs that people struggle to get through, but apparently they are way easier if you are trying to make youtube content. Since you are in the position to make videos about the series, I would highly recommend you do so.
🤣🤣🤣
Doing one piece is fine but most of the people are fully updated on it😆
Well seeing you reaction and analysis would be great 😆👍
You shouldnt skip all filler, one filler arc in particular is really good, either way welcome to one piece ill sub for the journey
Me: "I have no idea who you are."
Him: "Would you watch if I streamed One Piece Reactions?"
Me: "Yes, definitely."
I did the same thing. I loved watching the Live Action so much more than I thought I would. Started watching the anime after saying “I’ll just watch a few episodes after where enter the live action left off, just to see what happens” and now I’m at ep 670 in dressrosa 💀
All imma say is if you do skip filler at least watch the "g8 arc" its classified as filler but it flows so well with the story.
I consider it cannon even though oda didnt write it.
Sounds like my friend first he started the live action now hes watching the anime.
It's been 2 months now and the guy has been binge watching one piece now he's literally ep 548
It’s fascinating how many people have exactly the same complaints making them hesitant to start One Piece lmao. I had the exact same problem with it being too long, only to binge the shit out of it during covid lockdown and realize that 1,000+ chapters isn’t too much One Piece. It’s actually nowhere near enough. 🙏
The title and opening to this video warms my One Piece heart
❤️😍🫡
13:49 I’m always down to see more one piece reactions
That intro was peak😂 enjoy the journey my guy.
Just like you I didn't start watching One Piece for a very long time despite knowing about it and it being rated very highly, because of the goofiness. While it can drive away people from the show, now in hindsight, I think it's a very powerful writing tool that can elevate a story and I can appreciate it now that I've caught up. It creates *contrast*, which is something that lacks in most stories. A character that is introduced as an over the top happy-go-lucky quirky and annoying person having a traumatic experience later down the line or in their past is so much more effective at pulling at your heartstrings than someone who is always serious or neutral. Once you get to know their story or witness their trauma, their quirkiness starts to rub off on you and you start looking forward to it.
TLDR:
If you can get through the goofiness, you'll get to experience something very unique and learn to appreciate it.
I remember watching One Piece for the first time when I was 6 years old, it started airing just around then and I've had some breaks from it here and there but for the most part I have been watching it my entire life. As a life long fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the live action. I had to detach it from the manga and anime because it was obvious a 1:1 adaption wouldn't work so there was no use in me trying to compare them that way. I'm glad that the live action has gotten more people into the manga and anime, it's such a fantastic story and it's a shame how many people get too intimidated by it's length. I have yet to have someone I've convinced to start One Piece come back and regret it and my most recent friend caught up to everything in like 6 months haha
"Why can't we just have a show that doesn't have any messaging crammed into it, but just has the essence of fun?"
Me: *looks at the rest of One Piece, particularly from Skypia onward*
Guys ... I think I gotta tell him.
Btw man I just skimmed through your channel and I’m very impressed. 10 years on TH-cam, consistency is key. You’re really showing that. I think your channel will hit 100k subs faster than you think. Keep cranking out videos, keep getting better with editing titles and thumbnails and keep making videos you’re passionate about. Wish you lots of success
One piece is a journey, being reading/watching since 8 years old. You’ll love it. It’s the best anime community there is.
I'm so happy that theu didnt fuck it up and many new people are getting into the franchise. It really is something special. It's a work of fiction that is surely going to be remembered as a classic - not just in manga but in literature.
"isn't loaded with messages" Oh my man, One Piece is one of the most loaded series out there, there is a reason why people bring Strawhat pirates flag to protests.
ZeronicKiba:"How would you guys feel if I do OnePiece videos..."
Me: Bro I've watched One Piece and read all the manga several times. That is THE BEST Anime you can watch... It's a masterpiece! Even if you say that other anime's have a lot more details in fights or better drawing style... The story is such a masterpiece that it will draw you in! You should do the OnePiece videos and let's enjoy this journey together!
Pleeaaaase! I neeed more people who document their journey discovering One Piece for the first time! To see this beautiful story through your eyes and feelings is the only way to live this adventure again for the first time! And I say this after watching the anime TWICE (despite the really bad pacing in some arcs), read the manga and watched the live action... and I'm thinking about reading it AGAIN because the world building is just insane! 🤩🤩🤩
I loved OPLA!! So i decided to start reading the manga. Currently in chapter 709, Dressrosa arc.
OPLA IS THE GOAT!!!! I WANT HIM TO TAKE A DUMP IN MY MOUTH
My girlfriend had the same reaction lol. Loved the live action so much we have been binging the anime ever since. :))))
Bro it is one of the best decision i hv ever made in my life to watch OP.. Dont stop watching.. Feel the journey.. Don't rush it
These things happen when unknown actors loves their part. Not like some celebrities that feel entitled. They just do it for the sake of acting. No passion just work.
LA Luffy works because the people who wrote it know the new Luffy, his struggles and his growth. He has so much to give apart from goofiness.
Also, I think the best approach to One Piece is the one that comes from "I'm just enjoying the ride" because that's what the whole series is about (you will find deeper stories in the OP world, of course, but that's its essence).
I started the anime because of the live action! I got to Punk Hazard now, I started 2 months ago
This intro alone is worth a like and subscribe.
Its funny I have watched so many TH-camrs and friends mention how the length was intimidenting and I believe I was blessed enough that when I first discovered ANIME in 2016 with zero knowledge of what it was through a friend One piece was the 3rd Anime I watched after binging Attack on Titan (My first Anime ever) and BLEACH and therefore Anime's with lots of episodes was what I wanted the most. As a result any anime that has a lot of episodes I look forward to and I believe it because of One Piece.
What an amazijg place to be! The arabasta arc is when Oda really flexes and shows a bit of the potential of what one piece will be. So if you loved east blue, arabasta will probably blow you away
I love that intro. Welcome to One Piece, I hope you enjoy your stay.
I started the anime in like kate august to start of september and finally cracked the 1k episodes. I recommend everyone who is interested in one piece to just not feel like its a commitment to watch it all. You can just watch a arc or season and take a break. I took a break after like 800 episodes and watched other stuff for 2 weeks too. Ultimatively it took >2 decades for all these episodes to be produced, and its absolutely not taking that long to watch them, so catching up is possible any time.
Also after 1k episodes i can sum.up my experience as: its a fun Adventure i dont get bored of watching. It doesnt feel like i watched that much to me either since im having fun.
The live action was SO good that I started the anime even though I hadn't watched any anime for almost 15 years. (I had an anime phase around 12-14, and I am 28) That's impressive.
I went through the same, the live action got me into the anime if you want to avoid filler you should definitely watch it through one pace, while it does have some parts of some arcs missing you can easily watch those on original one piece other than that, that’s the best way to get caught up it took me about 4 months and I really loved it.
Welvcome on board Nakama. I'm excited about your one piece yourney!
welcome to the crew and I'll definitely watch your one piece videos when they come up
Yes!! I've been watching OP for a while now and love it!! The length was a bit intimidating to me too, but at a certain point I actually became happy that it was so long because I like it so much! I also enjoyed the live action and was also super impressed with how in 8 episodes they were able to capture spirit of the anime/characters!! Hope you continue to enjoy the anime and I'd love to see your thoughts on future arcs of the anime!
Long time One Piece fan here. I really loved the live action. I made it possible to introduce it to my girlfriend and it made her fall in love with the series. She decided to wait for the next seasons of the live action instead of watching the anime.
I also agreed on Sanji's simping change. I don't mind it in the anime since it speak to how open of a character he is. He really expresses his thoughts and feelings, which makes it really meaningful whenever he is bottling something up, or whenever he succumbs to his temptations and is secretive about it. Anime Sanji also has his romantic gentleman womanizer mode just like the live action Sanji. The character still feels the same without making live action Sanji a creepy weirdo.
I avoided one piece because of its length for a long time. I've now read the manga twice. TWICE. It's just that good.I might die before it ends and that would be a major regret. Also I'm on my own adventure. I have been bouncing around the caribbean sea for a while now and while I've been able to avoid gun fights and things I have definitely been living in a very exciting and deliberate way. One Piece captures the way that I feel all the time and I love it for that. Medellin is a fun freaking city by the way. Come visit me. I'm waiting for you.
Fun fact. The team that produces Live Action One Piece were the same team who did Cowboy Bebop
People say One Piece doesn't get serious until Water 7 but before we get there Luffy toppled a machiavellian bond villain's plot to steal a country and also got launched into the sky were he punches god, not long before meeting a guy who can freeze the entire ocean a hundred miles between two islands solid for a week.
Please upload one piece content!! my favorite show for over a decade now, it is so rewarding as you slowly unravel the mysteries of this huge world :) enjoy the ride!
I recommend watching One-Pace its fan project that makes the anime much shorter by cutting out the intros /recaps and cutting certain scenes to shorten it, it doesn't cut any important things.
Liked and subscribed, welcome to the world of one piece. Would love to see more one piece video, maybe videos about you discussing your thoughts about an arc.
Very good point about Usopp and Sanji. It’s been a while since I watched the East blue arc but yeah, nothing about what Usopp did in the live action syrup village part established his character well enough to join the crew. I wonder if that could’ve been given an extra scene or two to give him more depth. Same with Sanji and the Jinn character. That moment establishes Sanji as a really good person and it adds to why luffy wanted him as a crew member
Welcome to the journey ill watch the videos for sure. Dont skip any of the cannon stuff but filler isn't necessary. Although the only filler I would recommend is the G8 ark it's good enough that it should be cannon.
You started the anime, ok. I just have one tip for you as someone who is caught up to the latest manga chapter: when the anime gets too boring and slow, read the manga instead in those specific moments, you can find the chapters online divided by arc. The manga doesn't have the need to show you characters reaction facial expressions for seconds at a time, or show segments of the same flashback multiple times, it's so much faster to go through it. Hope you will enjoy this amazing story.
My recommendation is to read the cover stories as well. They tell the stories of some characters after their arc and their adventures. So you wont be surprised when they come back bit different
I just had to pause and give you a like for the epic OP intro 🥲
I am not a big anime fan, but after watching the live action version I drived headlong into the English version One Piece on Netflix. I watched all the episodes and it got me wanting more. I am afraid to watch the movies, because I don't want no spoilers.
Omg yes please do one piece saga videos! 👏🏻 definitely split them into arcs
Reviews of each of the Sagas sounds like a really good idea to me.
I'm part of this wave OPLA brought to the fandom. I've heard of it before, but I haven't really paid attention to what it was until reviews of the curse being broken made it for me, and I'm here. I'm listening to people discovering OP as a manga because of Merphy Napier and people like me, giving OP a chance and falling for it. So, yes, your thoughts on the Alabasta arc will be on my list
Same thing happened to me. I'm on episode 525 now WOOOOO!!!! Don't skip anything!
"...until I lose interest..." lol, good one!
The live action was so good I watched it twice, then I restarted the anime after stopping in middle school. I'm in the 900s now lmao
