I’ve seen 46 anime series and movies in the time it would take me to get 2/3 the way through One Piece
The pacing is completely fucked most of the time, production quality varies over time (mostly because it’s spanning a decade now) and I wouldn’t recommend the show over the manga (which has none of these issues) aside from some key highlights, but I don’t think I’ll ever understand the disproportionate hate for the actual story of One Piece. Of the popular, long-running shonen series it has an original setting, a ton of world building and a romantic atmosphere. It’s not for everyone, but it does take an edgy contrarian to act like it’s dogshit with no redeeming qualities.
One Piece sucks and you’re a pedophile for watching some show about a little boy
Sneed & cope and my inevitable downvotes will be proof that I’m right
I like the part when luffy says it’s one piecing time and proceeds to gomu gomu over everyone
Lol I get it
If I say this outside of shitpost subs, I get attacked.
All they do for 99% of each episode is talk about how they gonna defeat this enemy who is standing on the other side of the screen staring menencly at the protagonists
Oh thought we were talking about One piece, are we talking about Dragonball now? Jk, they both have that annoying shit
One Piece is the anime on every TV in purgatory.
One summer in college I watched the first 500 episodes in an extreme binge session. Probably 18 hour days of nothing but one piece day after day. Then I ran out of episodes. I keep thinking I’ll watch the rest someday, but I struggle up even remember most of what I watched back then. And now watching 1000 episodes feels like an impossible challenge
Just keep going from where you stopped. You might remember a few things you forgot and even if you don’t it’s fine. I’ve been reading the manga weekly for a decade and I’ve forgot a lot over time but it didn’t make it any less enjoyable.
Just started it last week. Enjoying it so far.
Is the main character autistic or something? He seems kinda oblivious to social queues
Just a heads up I think you mean “social cues”. A cue is an indicator. A queue is a line waiting for something.
Unless the main character has issues with queueing, I guess. I dunno, I’ve never watched One Piece specifically because of the bonkers number of episodes.
Luffy wants a stocked fridge, to honour his friendships and to be king of the pirates. He just doesn’t give a single fuck about anything else
One Piece is a children’s show. My children love it. I wouldn’t wish it on adults.
It’s absurdism. It’s as much a children’s show as Slaughterhouse 5 is a childrens book
