This reminds me of that scene in Shabondy Island where Usopp asks Ryleigh if he knows anythig about the One Piece and Luffy gets mad and says something like he doesn't wanna know where the One Piece is or if it even exists, he just wants to have an awesome adventure and become the king of the pirates, meaning that, just like us the viewers/readers, what he cares about is the journey itself
Recently oda admitted he reads every fan letter he’s sent in fact he has an entire storage locker dedicated to storing all the letters he’s read cause he doesn’t want to get rid of any of them and the ones that aren’t in there are the ones he hasn’t read yet. Oh and he also donated a crap ton of money for relief efforts during the tsunami that hit Japan a couple years back under a false name cause he didn’t want to make a big deal of it and just donate to help and when it was revealed it was him his home town erected a statue of luffy for him as thanks. And they plan on doing this for the rest of the crew all across Japan. Just... god bless the beautiful bastard
not even the final arc, he said it for wano arc. Its definitely not too late for new readers to catch and be part of the greatest point if the story thus far, we're currently fighing wano
@@gayfruit4411 as far as I am aware He never specified it to be for wano arc, so it is much more likely that he was referring to a war after wano is complete
The difference between Zoro and sanji is that Sanjis gag kinda got old in alblasta meanwhile Zoros horrendous sense of direction joke never fails to make me laugh
I honestly love how long One Piece, is because it takes it time, and builds the world, i swear One Piece, is probably the most hype anime around like there is so many shocking moments, and it actually makes me feel real emotion like i fucking loathe Akainu, they seriously make you hate that man.
@Ray_Violet.13 I took a break from anime since March, started reading manga and in less than three days I have read over 11 volumes... help I'm addicted
@@bastienhamilton9811 Damn.... always been one though, since as a kid, but never gave it a real chance until last year... if there's a cure, don't wanna lol
Wait till you read one piece the second time, it's like crack, all the story threads just reveal themselves and the curiosity and fascination of finding how everything comes together is literally like a treasure map
I rewatched OP not too recently. It takes the equivalent of 15 days to finish from the start to end. After I watched essentially a month of One Piece, I want to do it again, it really is like crack! One Piece really shines when you rewatch it
Oda once donated the 800 million yen(300 million of which came from oda and the other 500 million coming from "Monkey D Luffy") to a town due to a terrible earth quake. As thanks for the donation, they erected statues of one piece characters made out of bronze. Those statues garnered so much tourist attention and made so much money back that they literally saved the town and put 2.67 billion yen into the local economy. One piece literally saved lives and the economy(in a way). *numbers may not be 100% accurate, correct them if im wrong, but regardless it really goes to show just how impactful one piece is even in real life
@@ulyssesglemao6783 Well, be it in Europe or the US, people in manga communities tend to think if something is popular, it has to be rather low quality (especially in shonen nekketsu, which is the fast-food of manga). So One Piece being the best-selling of all time kinda works against it, because seinen edgelords just assume it must mean it's average to bad, when really it happens to be both number one in sales and in writing
RIP Miura. Mangaka need rests and breaks like normal people. I don't want another great manga to end like berserk and many other. I hope Oda gets his rest and stays in good health.
Oooof, yeah, after hearing about Oda's schedule I got legit scared. It's sad to see artist's having to take that risk and I would rather see them having more healthy lifestyles and waiting a bit longer.
Agreed. Although Miura's death was caused by what is essentialy a biological freak accident where an injury to the aorta leads to blood forcefuly separates the layers of the aortic wall leading to rupture; usually (but not always) linked with hypertension and/or smoking. It's the same thing that killed John Ritter and Alan Thicke.
@@SrTNick1 When he was 54 years old and had spent almost 30 years speaking about how much he was overworking and how much it affected his health and mood. He himself has been writing about this since at least the 90s. Miura himself said it. Listen to the man.
"It literally made me cry over a drawing of a boat" Don't you throw those feelings at me, took me ages to come away from that, i don't need to go there again
I never wouldve thought that asking that one dude about one piece as he was watching it infront of me in 11th grade history would lead to the best piece of fiction I have ever experienced.
With Kentaro Miura's recent death I'm afraid that he might. I suppose he doesn't care about that, but I'm sure he'd care about leaving his story unfinished
@@MakiPcr He is always does exercises & a break after 2-3 chapters today, so hoping he is still healthy as ever. The Shonen Jump that force him to do that. This man is addicting to draw One Piece LOL
If you understand what I mean by buggy d. Clown you’re too deep to turn back, follow me future otaku’s for we have a journey to pass onto our greatest grandchildren
"you're not missing out if you don't read it" Lies Oda, lies. You have no idea how much fic writers have taken from the SBS when it comes to slice-of-life writing lol.
Pedrito27 he releases a ton of info about the Strawhats and other characters that wouldn’t be important to the actual story. Like what their occupations would be if they lived in the real world or what country they’d be from.
Rereading the series recently. I realized something. Luffy isn't dumb, he's not just resourceful, he's generally clever, and possibly the most emotionally intelligent character in the series(which might be a specialty of his observation Haki). There is a bit in Whole Cake where Jimbei literally says that he tried to think what Luffy would do in response to Capone Bege's offer, and everyone else is sure it is something Luffy would turn down, but he takes it, because he can think strategically when he needs to. However, he went and built a crew of people who are better at doing their special things better than he can, including several great minds. Once he got Nami on his crew, he checked out on thinking except when she or one of the later addition brains aren't around, he makes decisions based on what he wants, and trusts the thinking to his people he outsources his planning to. And it becomes clear when he is far enough away from them for long enough and presented with problems he can't just punch, he will start thinking again, and start thinking well. And I really love that realization.
His crew knows this too. They have full trust in each other. Luffy knows that he can leave them behind without worrying and they know that he will always have their backs. They elevate each other in a way that no other supporting cast I think does. They compliment each other instead of just being there either as equals or and comedy. They have their roles and excel in them as competent people in their own right who dont necessarily need Luffy but with him they can reach new hights.
Man, one of the reasons why I fell in love with One Piece as a kid was the feeling that Luffy understands something deeper than I do. The way he became extremely serious in specific circumstances made it apparent that Luffy was way wiser than he was portrayed as occasionally. Luffy understands the most important layer of things, while other's are unaware. He understands what truly is ethical and valuable, and that's why we like him. He is goofy and stupid until the moment arrives where he has to be serious so nothing against his ethics occurs. And we viewers mostly agree with his ethics, he just lives as if it was not apparent based on his behavior and appearance that he too understands these things, maybe even better than most.
Bon Clay is the single most ridiculous absurd over the top joke of a character ever created. And yet he rules over all other nakama as the greatest bro who ever lived. I honestly dont know what luffy did to gain such a deep love and respect from bon clay but dang man, its beautiful. We need him to show up again somehow. And im sure he will manage to sacrifice himself to save luffy yet again in the process.
@@mothersbasement ah, I get it. The WG mustve created it in order to get Sanji and Zoro fans to fight in order to crush any hope for an allaince between them.
My friend showed me a clip from the sabaody arc and I was really confused and I didn’t get it but the passion I saw in his eyes and the way he talked about one piece reminded of when I find a great show and want someone else to enjoy too. So for 2018 I made it my New Years resolution to watch one piece and for a first time in my life I completed a resolution in just 3 months with 840 episodes. And now I wait patiently for each new manga chapter. It truly becomes addicting.
@@ikhlasulamal8067 no no, there was only that many episodes made at that time when I binged it, I’m still very current with the anime and manga now. And I’m really enjoying the Wano arc. I even cosplayed Luffy-taro back when anime conventions were still around.
tbf to Sanji, if I also lived in a world where 90% of women had Nami's figure, I'd probably be a huge mega-simp as well. Edit: The Supernovas were WHAT?!
I remember hearing that after having caught up and it broke my brain because Law is such a vital character post time skip...goda (god + oda) at his finest
Exactly, how in the frick- also the seven warlords were also based on a whim..... they are one of the most important features in all of one piece even seeing more of them (1/3 of the story)then the final antagonists
@@kraiaikrai8962 yes, the warlords are ones of the reason why the story expands beyond the 5 years long scheduled. It's supposed to be Four Emperors Saga after East Blue.
Oda had plans for Kidd, but not the rest. The week of their reveal chapter his editors asked if he could make it more exciting, because the arc had been pretty light so far. He obliged.
No matter how much manga i read, shows i watch, games i play, I will never forget the day a man called Eiichiro Oda invited me to join him and his pals on a grand adventure. There's truly nothing quite like one piece.
@@lorddukfoxyzeppeli7921 I mean they HAVE Nami, who is the greatest Navigator on the seas. She probably does that as a side thing when she's not drawing maps lol
Usopp: Tells a ridiculous lie. Oda: Okay let's make that real in 800 chapters. (Literally every lie Usopp ever tells becomes truth later on in some capacity)
The setup in One Piece is amazing. Jinbei was first mentioned in chapter 69 but wouldn't appear until chapter 528, over a decade later. And now, more than another decade later he has become one of the main characters.
One Piece: I’m going to make you feel things about a ship that you never thought you could. I’m going to give you a rollercoaster ride of emotions about some of the best characters ever written. I am going to drag your heart through the lowest lows so it can soar at the highs
Since the Yonta Maria Grand Fleet (as well as the rest of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet) is sure to take part in it, and since it consists of 56 (of course) ships and 4300 crewmen, only two of which aren't unnamed fodder, I really hope that whatever happens during that last arc, it will have naval battles like the ones Oda always wanted to make only to be discouraged by his editors. Oh, and there's also Happo Navy, about a thousand strong and surely also with multiple ships.
Just imagine. The Revolutionaries waging war with the Government at Mariejios while Luffy is claiming the One Piece (and also likely fighting Blackbeard). They're on the backfoot, when all of a sudden, the Thousand Sunny crashes into Pangea Castle using Franky's tech to propel it from the sea. Then, just like Shanks heralded the end of Marineford, the King of the Pirates arrives to fight with Dragon and his revolutionaries for the freedom of the whole world. B/c remember, Luffy declared war on the government back at Enies Lobby. He's fulfilling that promise now. I don't know if that's how it'll go, but man, just thinking about it at all gives me goosebumps.
This is why I dislike Toei. For all the fame and respect we give Oda as a manga author and as a person, Toei destroys it all by their constant irritating acts of dragging/milking the anime or adding more fan service just to generate more popularity and revenue. Many anime fans don’t even understand that Oda is not the one running the anime, so they just go after him as a money hungry author when we all know that’s not the case at all. Oda has put so much care and love into his story and doing what he can to please himself and his fans, but Toei’s selfish acts continue to destroy and falsely defame Oda and he’s the one who most likely bears the brunt of it. The anime is amazing, but I wish Toei would respect Oda’s own wishes more.
I do enjoy the anime, but the pacing is so whack, especially in the new world. They need to make a super cut that cuts out all the feet dragging. Most arcs, once all the repetitiveness is cut, would only be a few hours.
@@breeze5926 There is the fan made 'One Pace' for that. Its actually really well made and has edited the majority of the anime, including everything after Water 7 in its entirety.
@@apemayor3046 I saw they made that! I couldn't find it in dubbed though. Do you know if that exists? I don't mind watching subbed, but my Dad can't read fast enough to have fun watching subbed.
@@raiogxn Definitely will watch it, but I hope you know that I say all this knowing how overworked and underpaid animation studios really are and the poor conditions they deal with. The industry itself is such a mess so I don’t blame the animation studios in particular since I’m sure they have to do all they can to optimize and survive. I’m just expressing my dislike for the result that comes about because of these circumstances.
“I love these wacky pirates more than my own friends and family- and you will too!” *Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave* ( and true)
One Piece is literally one of the things that I weigh whenever I get really low and dark and ask myself "why should I keep living?" and its quite possible that I wouldnt be alive today if one piece wasnt there to keep me going through some of those dark days. Like, it seems silly, but thats how good One Piece has been for me.
I don't know which is more impressive: The subtle weaving of G-Force shilling throughout plot-relevant shout outs, or the tone of religious fervor usually associated with shouts of "Muad'dib".
@@mothersbasement My one complaint about the video is that you really missed the opportunity to make a joke about how much better Franky would run if he switched from soda to G-Fuel.
I've been simping for one piece for YEARS, literal Years. And every time i sing its praises i would always get put down "naw its too long" or "it doesn't get good until X chapters" naw man One piece has been GOAT for years.
What's funny is for me, one piece hit RIGHT off the bat. the very first episode, seeing luffy burst out of that barrel I KNEW that he was a character i'd love forever. He was carefree, happy as can be and knew what he wanted in life. Oda and by extension Luffy are legends.
Geoff, I come here to find anime to watch while I'm waiting for One Piece to get ahead enough to binge again, but watching you descend into madness over the same property is a joy.
Fun fact: to this day we don't know Luffy's actual dream, but just his goal. The only hints we have to it are Ace and Sabo reacting to it the same way two other people did to Roger's dream (won't say who because of spoilers)
yeah there is a good theory that it is That he wants to have a party with the whole world. cause you know how after every arc there is a party? yeah so when he defeats the world government there is gonna be a world size party. i think it fits really well
Don't cry because it's over Smile because it happened Binksu no sake o Todokeni yuku yo Umikaze, kimakaze, namimakase Shio no mukou de Yuhi wo sawagu Sora nya, wao kaku tori no uta~
They'll make their own version of boruto for one piece . It just makes too much money for them not to. I remember Misashi Kishimoto saying he wouldn't make anymore Naruto. So they got another mangaka and made it anyway.
Oda is quite amazing as a mangaka and as a person. I think it was a few years back now that a child said to Make A Wish Japan that they wanted to know the ending of One Piece. Oda told them in private so only they knew and jokingly begged them to not reveal it to the press.
"There is not a human being alive who works harder or personally produces more value than Eichiiro Oda. Therefore, anyone who's got more money than him probably stole some or most of it" Facts, comrade! OP is evidence of LTV
It's not quite right because Geoff is equating monetary worth with labour value and while they are correlated they aren't quite the same thing nor always match. A lot of other factors influence price, because market and all that. Not saying that you can get much more money "ethically" though.
@@tand0r That's why he mentioned LTV, aka, Labor Theory of Value. That said, honestly, there's also a bunch of people who make money through means other than having a market decide how much their _personal_ labour is worth (namely: generally being in a position to decide their own salary).
@@voxomnes9537 nah, it's mostly the usual algorithm stuff showing you stuff you agree with most often to increase retention It's extreamly spooky cause it makes everyone think they have the most popular idea
One piece is probably one of the greatest things that humanity has ever created. Not kidding, its just that good! Edit: because of the arguing in the comments, i just wanna say that just because i love one piece a lot, doesn’t mean everyone will. Im not saying that it should be everyone’s favorite book of all time, im just saying how much I appreciate it xD.
Next to the "Does X fruit affect genitals?" question, the most common one has to be "Reader: Is this X's birthday? *Makes pun about character with number sounds in Japanese* Oda: Yes." They were so frequent that he had to stop accepting those questions and now there are calendars full of every character's birthday, literally thousands of them, filling up every day.
@@audreym3908 I believe at one point there were two days left unfilled so he asked for people to make suggestions. But yes, there are plenty of days with multiple birthdays. Remember, we're talking about many hundreds of characters, so it'd be impossible not to have overlap.
Before reading One piece: "This is too long. I'm not gonna get invested" After catching up: "DAMMIT WHY IS IT ON BREAK THIS WEEK?! I have at least 7 different theories I need to get confirmed in this battle!" (my actual thought process before I knew about Oda's mandatory breaks)
Still do this day the straw hats have no astrologist/Astronomer/astrograph on their crew, someone who looks at the stars in correlation to the planet i tself, tides and floods, the five moons
15 years ago I started reading onepiece. Back then, I was thinking what a cool battle manga. So his goal becoming pirate king and recruited cool 'nakama'. I am enjoying Zoro Vs Mihawk, Baratie Arc, Drum Kingdom, Alabasta Saga, Ace Introduction, Skypiea Battle, Shandora Flashback, Merry Repair Saga in Water 7, Robin Abduction to Enies Lobby and planning to stop reading at Thirller Bark. I know it is great but how long it is gonna end? So I stopped till someone tell me, Luffy had to save Ace. Wondering what happed during my absent, so I decided to came back to read. And I am thrilled, it was one of the best and saddest arc from every manga that ever I read. At that point I decided, "Okay I need to completed this manga, no matter how long this gonna go. I will commit to finised this together". So I decided to read weekly and re-read some of early chapter to remind me whats going on. And oh my God, It is the best. It evolve cause my understanding have grown too. Every arc bring something new to me. For example Usopp insecurity during Syrup Village Battle, Nami kindness and heartwarming family in Arlong Park, Luffy Miracle in Louge Town, Laboon and Crocus encounter at begining of Grand Line. Elbaf relationship from Dorry & Brogy, BonClay friendship, Bellamy Ignorance, Black Beard Introduction and so on. It feel more alive and connected. Oda had planned it all from begining. He connect the dots, he makes history and plan from each supporting character. So almost everyone have role to contribute to story. Onepiece is not just random good battle manga. It is the best world building/ adventure manga. It have funny & relatable character, good driven story, real world problem/reference and the most important of all. Oda write Onepiece from his heart, it takes a lot of dedication, passion and bravery. He teach us, Onepiece reader a lot of things. It is not just entertaiment, it have ideal and value for us to carry into the real world. Onepiece will go on for another 5 years (extimation). I hope we will reach the good closure. It doesn't have to be perfect, cause we already had great adventure during these years. I just hope Oda can finish his story and have good wonderful life. Note: If yo haven't read OnePiece. It is good time to read. You already have more than +1000 chapter. You will have enough reading material to get hooked and don't have to endure like us. (our weekly chapter waiting). We also have access to HD anime videos. It has colour, voice actors, and fantastic music. Join our adventure today cause it will be harder for you to find motivation to join later. The chapter will grow more, and you will make more excuse. Believe me it is worth your time.
"You were really staring into the face of God. Grinning Maniacally as he bestows upon you the realization that Yes, Luffy could totally skip rope with his weenus. And Yes, that fact WILL be plot-relevant. in 500 chapters. Then, you simply weep, as you accept the inevitable sacrificial binge, and the ceremonial wait for next chapter" The most terrifying description I've ever heard.
Me before reading One Piece: “Oh, a funny, random story about a weird rubber boy. This is so dumb, I’m going to get a giggle out of this Me after reading One Piece: “Geez, I’m sorry. I was wrong, can I leave now?” Oda: “No”
Oda-san is one of the few writers that I hold such monumental respect for. I can only dream that my own writing will come to a tenth of his skill. This is a man that has been telling an epic for over twenty years, starting his his early twenties, thus working on it for more then half his life, who's kept so many threads going to their payoff since the beginning. There are very few things in the manga that are there just to be there and I love it. I could gush endlessly but I shall hold my tongue.
nono please keep going on, I would love to hear more. I love One Piece more than anything in this world and talking about it and its complete sheer of astonishingness is what I love to do most.
Well, the title "best shounen" kinda obviously implies that its better than other shounen....doesnt mean that I dont love the fuck out of all other shonen Ive experienced, modern aand a little older....
@@Houlgravely I disagree. Hunter x Hunter does not even come close to the quality of One Pieces world building or long-term storytelling. I also like the characters in One Piece a lot more. I lost interest in Hunter x Hunter long ago (which is also mostly thanks to the hiatus) but One Piece still keeps me on the edge of my seat every week.
I don’t know how my brother does it but he’s marathoned One Piece multiple times. With a full time job and still spends time watching one piece theory videos. Edit: I’m also not talking about it like in his lifetime but rather just this year and in both languages while still playing a lot of Monsters Hunter.
@@KingOfEden12 I'm all caught up. I've seen the anime from the start up until they enter the grandline, everything from laboon to the fight in onigashima, I've read the manga, took me 4 months. I'm SO fuckin' HOOKED. I want more Sabo, more Crocodile, more Germa 66, more Rob Lucci, more Gorgon Sisters, more everything. The Wano Arc is the first arc ever that i'm gonna experience the conclusion alongside everyone else :)
@@EnzoPinheiro oh shit nice ! Damn you're fast 😂😂 I started watching back in 2011 and I watched about 550ish episodes in about 10 months then I dropped OP in Punk Hazzard then picked it back up several years later and read the following 400 or so chapters in about 4 months lol. But that's great man ! It's awesome to see new fans. I'm honestly itching to see Dragon, Mihawk and Shanks. We've known all of them for soooo long and know almost nothing of their abilities. Also Kuma is a huge mystery that I want uncovered. He has to have an arc where they explain his history with the revolutionary army! Anyways man glad to have your aboard, and welcome to the fandom !!!
And the fact that One Piece only has a single Author compared to the massive list of the two other titles really speaks a lot about Oda's capabilities.
Oda's art is seriously underrated. The goofy style isn't a hindrance, it's an enhancement. When something crashes into a building and the whole structure *bends and curves inwards*, you feel the impact. Exaggeration is not a bad thing, best seen in how Oda draws people crying. Luffy's power being rubber allows for some crazy and amasing angles and shots of him stretching to hit opponents and Oda takes advantage of that all the time. His use of black and white to make amazingly striking final shots are mindblowing. And anyone who claims characters in One Piece doesn't change or develop can bite me. I'm convinced they either weren't paying enough attention or just haven't read/watched it at all. The character development in OP is actually surprisingly subtle, but it's so good.
I can't guenated that this comment is true since i didn't like one piece ( mainly because of it's over high fans ) but after i started watching it i kinda started to understand where they are coming from the series is almost a masterpiece
@@stevs4696 the only thing that will stop one piece from being considered a master piece and the greatest anime of all time will be if Oda somehow fucks up the ending. Yes I know greatest of all time is subjective but I think One Piece is at least forever in that conversation because of the constitent high level story telling with very few low points
@@sisilotau2185 knowing how big one piece is... There is no way in hell oda could satisfy every fan with the ending.... It would be a miracle if he even satisfys half his fans
I just have 2 things to say, you just made me appreciate oda sensei to a whole new level, and the best part is you explained this series without major spoilers as others would force-feed you major spoilers
When you join the epic journey that is One Piece you no longer can escape it! I'm a fan for over 10 years and it's the only anime/manga that I religiously follow every week without taking a break. My passion for One Piece is the same now as when I caught up with the series in the Thriller Bark arc.
yet i am the type of fan who goes out of their way to get behind, all so i can enjoy the binge again. I never have to fear forgetting, either. It takes only a moment to remember everything that is going on in "my second reality life".
It makes my mind melt knowing just how high I'll have to climb and how hard I'll have to work, but it's my dream to one day create a story that can surpass this masterpiece...
ik it's an adventure, but I really think the slice of life aspect of One Piece is underrated. These days we rarely ever see the crew just relaxing and living at sea and continuing to build their friendships. I've heard of a bunch of headcanons that just makes the series feel even shorter. Like how maybe Robin tells Chopper bedtime stories, Brook plays the violin while Sanji cooks, Ussop and Zoro working out together, Ussop and Franky toying with some robotics, Nami and Luffy picking tangerines, Robin using her dv to massage Zoro, Ussop and Chopper playing I spy, Nami talking abt weather invention ideas with Franky, etc
I think the end of the water 7 arc was when I realized the series was Real Shit TM. Before that I also was just "enjoying the ride" and then found the series was unlike another and had pulled me in deeper than than I even realized, and no other show could compare.
"Fishman Island was kind of a drag" bruh it's in my top 5 arcs and that is a very competitive bracket. I still get teary eyed over Otohime and Fisher Tiger's deaths whenever I reread/rewatch.
The moment when Fisher Tiger revealed that he was a slave and he despises humans so much that he would rather died than have their blood in him but he did not want his hatred to be passed on like Otohime preached in her drunken speech asking to let the children see and decide for themselves. Then cutting back to Hody and Shirahosi, one being what Otohime feared the most and the other being what she wanted. I can’t properly put it into words but how Oda used the story of Otohime and Fisher Tiger side by side, each with pupils who inherited their will (Shirahosi and Jimbei) and depicted how racism will be handled in One Piece ending with the absolute masterclass narration box and scene “The path to the sun”. Fishman Island is easily one of my favorite arcs in One Piece.
I do like it but as a doctor the whole blood transfusion thing was a little hard for me to suspend disbelief on. I realize this is a world with literal dinosaurs and a guy that is made out of rubber but for some reason that bothered me.
It is crazy just how true this video is. I started One Piece this year around March and just reached the time skip. I don’t think any other show will make you stick with it as loyally. Even when I take breaks from it, it’s still on my mind. And then I end up watching 20 episodes daily to satisfy my need for more One Piece 😂. I simultaneously want to reach the end of the story but also never want it to end. What will we do when it’s done!!!!!!
The best part is definitely the weekly release and discussing theories with all the community! Oda the GOAT of world building. No media comes even close! Thank u Oda.
Hunter X Hunter has and always will blow One Piece out of the water. The very premise of One Piece undermines it compared to the vastness of Togashi's grasp on world building and the power of Nen.
@@Houlgravely Man I acknowledge that HxH has an incredible world but there's so many more factors at play in One Piece and Oda has produced it week to week for over 2 decades. We're never even gonna get to the Dark Continent
i deep down hope he left a notepad or something with core points explained or how he was planning to evolve them . maybe even the hint of the ending and then the people who worked on it maybe try to make a "final volume" made both by text and scribbles. I dunno, something at all. Wishful thinking but oh well
@@fr801 i mean it is possible,there are some books and mangas that were completed by other people after the author passed away it all depends if he left some kind of outline or not
So, the basic message is, "the manga is better than the anime"? Yeah, that's like saying "the book is better than the film adaptation", it's a pretty universal concept.
Yeah but many people usually only try the anime version and assume they don't like it based on that and don't expect they would enjoy the manga because of that. But in many cases, it makes a huge difference. I couldn't watch more than 50 episodes of the One Piece anime but the manga is incredible.
I think both the anime and the manga are good for different reasons. The manga is of course superior than the anime in terms of pacing, but the anime does good fillers like G8 and they even did episode fillers where the Strawhats are just chilling and bond with each other (eg. filler episode after Alabasta of the Straw Hats losing their memories, and built up the bond between Chopper and Robin). The jokes in the anime are executed well and can even be funnier than the manga at times (eg. The scene where the crew meets Crocus for the first time). So I think overall both are really good, but for different reasons
@@Goomyx1492 Yeah for Once Piece it is absolutely true that the manga is the way to go, but for the anime industry as a whole there are many series where you can make a pretty strong case that the anime adaptation is superior.
Video - "Don't read one piece. is too long" Me who is waiting for the new chapter and have been reading it for over 10 years now. - "interesting but a little late. I'm already in too deep bro. lmao"
I've been reading one piece weekly for 20 years, started in 2001 crazy thinking back to it. I got the first novel back when I turned 7 as a birthday present from my best friend, back when our family moved. I lost contact with those friends long ago, but one piece is still a thing treasure thanks to them.
It definitely will lol, but i bet the battle he is hinting at in the all out war on Laughtale, or potentially Blackbeard’s, and the Strawhats, but i doubt it’s going to be that simple if it ecplices Marineford.
@@joshshrum2764 maybe it's a battle royale with all parties involved: Strawhats vs World Goverment vs Blackbeard vs Revolutionaries vs Shanks vs Kaido/Bigmom*?? vs former warlords vs supernovas(some if not all) vs extras :P
Plot twist: oda was actually luffy from an alternative world and know his story then as he died as king of the pirates he died of old age at 80 and got isekai'd into our world and is writting about his past life
9:49 "they have to rescue their companion from a giant mean person like theyre some kinda looneytoons" 9:04 like theyre in some kind of a betty boop cartoon oh boy you have nooo idea.
I mean... it felt necessary in order to put a bow on that simmering racism plotline that had been brewing since Arlong and exploded in Sabaody. It felt like Oda just needed to get that out of the way before starting the series's momentum back up from scratch at Punk Hazzard. And it DID pick up after that, make no mistake.
It also have one of my favorites, if not my favorite moment from the whole manga... The interaction between Nami and Jinbei makes me tear up every time
@@Caernunnos All in all i really like how real one piece fells in that way... how Arlong isnt just one one of bad guy who is bad to humans for no particular reason or some shallow backstory but how we as the reader can follow his life and empathize with his story.
I for years hated on one piece because I thought it looked to goofy and cartoony and I didn’t like the art style…I watched this video and it still didn’t sway me. One day though I decided I would give the show a try and see why it’s loved by so many. I should have heeded your warning, my life has been consumed for the past 3 weeks, all I can think about is OP. So far I’m up to the last few episodes of the Water 7 arc and holy shit this show is so good I can’t believe I hated on it for so long. I literally love this show, so far my favorite arc has been the skypiea arc, mostly because of the storyline with noland and calgara (which made me sob) and seeing eneru get his shit rocked. That being said, water 7 is definitely a great arc as well. Please send help, I can’t leave this place…every waking moment is spent watching OP, when I’m working I watch it. When I’m supposed to be sleeping I watch it. EVEN WHEN IM DRIVING I HAVE EPISODES OF ONE PIECE PLAYING
Hey man if you haven’t already you should also read the manga, there are a bunch of canon cover stories with previous characters/villains and question corners with Oda Sensei!
watch anime until Sabaody Arc, after that I suggest start reading manga, because anime pacing kind of kill the tension and greatness of the greatest fictional story, Marineford saga. If you watch anime you would still appriciate it but probably not as much as the manga
What I love is that a lot of great fans, when there is break, care that Oda takes his breaks. Sure, we don't like a break but this man is consistent at writing what is one of the best stories ever written, we want that kind man to be healthy!!
I kept telling those fans who’s mad with oda everytime he’s on break.. let that man rest MY GOD.. Hunter X Hunter is 1 chapter a year. Be grateful.. we need him to finish the story not die in the process. That being said.. I love One Piece and I wish nothing but the best for Oda and his family ❤️ No other manga or anime had me hook like One Piece after 23 years of reading the manga.. i’m so happy that more people realise that One Piece story-tellin is above superiority compared to Naruto or even Bleach.
I have talked to my brother about One Piece so much and have been obsessed with it for months that he has a deep seeded hatred for it to the point that he calls it the abomination all because I talked to him about it. I have read up to Thriller Bark in like a couple months and I am hooked and shook. Water 7/Enies Lobby especially had me shook and depressed. I have never met and I don't know Oda but I have so much respect for that man and his dedication.
Me several years ago: "I'm not gonna watch/read One Piece. It's too long plus I'm not too big into anime." *Starts watching the anime 6 months ago* Me: "I'm here to say that as of yesterday I've officially caught up to the series both anime and manga, AND GODDAMN THIS IS SERIES IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I'VE EVER WITNESSED!" (Thanks to my cousin for constantly recommending it to me)
I caught up but not really what I mean is I watched the anime till the dress Rosa arc and stopped around 2017 ish and am reading the recent manga chapters I don’t want to know all of the story as of yet cuz I’d probably go crazy waiting for more content. I did watch all the movies but I’m still keeping dress Rosa and cake island off limits 🤣
The problem with One Piece:
You want to see how it ends
But you don't want to see it end
I want sensei to draw a new series. About robots, if he still wants that.
This reminds me of that scene in Shabondy Island where Usopp asks Ryleigh if he knows anythig about the One Piece and Luffy gets mad and says something like he doesn't wanna know where the One Piece is or if it even exists, he just wants to have an awesome adventure and become the king of the pirates, meaning that, just like us the viewers/readers, what he cares about is the journey itself
I want it to end because I want Oda to get some sleep 😭
Perfect description.
@@AntediluvianRomance monthly manga would be nice. But at this point, I just want him to enjoy life man
Recently oda admitted he reads every fan letter he’s sent in fact he has an entire storage locker dedicated to storing all the letters he’s read cause he doesn’t want to get rid of any of them and the ones that aren’t in there are the ones he hasn’t read yet. Oh and he also donated a crap ton of money for relief efforts during the tsunami that hit Japan a couple years back under a false name cause he didn’t want to make a big deal of it and just donate to help and when it was revealed it was him his home town erected a statue of luffy for him as thanks. And they plan on doing this for the rest of the crew all across Japan. Just... god bless the beautiful bastard

One Piece really shines when you rewatch it
Oda once donated the 800 million yen(300 million of which came from oda and the other 500 million coming from "Monkey D Luffy") to a town due to a terrible earth quake. As thanks for the donation, they erected statues of one piece characters made out of bronze. Those statues garnered so much tourist attention and made so much money back that they literally saved the town and put 2.67 billion yen into the local economy. One piece literally saved lives and the economy(in a way).
*numbers may not be 100% accurate, correct them if im wrong, but regardless it really goes to show just how impactful one piece is even in real life
They're in Kumamoto which is actually Oda's hometown.
It saved not only japanese lifes:)

Ironic considering those characters are pirates.
HOLY FUCK!!!! THAT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!
That's really wholesome

One Piece: Best selling manga of all time
Also One Piece: Criminally underrated
tbh underrated =/= underpopular
One Piece pretty much dominated other region like Asia which is where I come from, gotta agree that One Piece isn't really popular in the west

@@Teerapatkongrat It's literally selling like pancakes in europe i think you mean is US
@@ulyssesglemao6783 Well, be it in Europe or the US, people in manga communities tend to think if something is popular, it has to be rather low quality (especially in shonen nekketsu, which is the fast-food of manga). So One Piece being the best-selling of all time kinda works against it, because seinen edgelords just assume it must mean it's average to bad, when really it happens to be both number one in sales and in writing

Yea I used be sad at the breaks even tho it’s necessary now I just want him to take more breaks now
Oooof, yeah, after hearing about Oda's schedule I got legit scared. It's sad to see artist's having to take that risk and I would rather see them having more healthy lifestyles and waiting a bit longer.
Miura didn't die from overworking, he died of a major heart injury common in men in their 60s and 70s.
Agreed. Although Miura's death was caused by what is essentialy a biological freak accident where an injury to the aorta leads to blood forcefuly separates the layers of the aortic wall leading to rupture; usually (but not always) linked with hypertension and/or smoking. It's the same thing that killed John Ritter and Alan Thicke.
@@SrTNick1 When he was 54 years old and had spent almost 30 years speaking about how much he was overworking and how much it affected his health and mood. He himself has been writing about this since at least the 90s. Miura himself said it. Listen to the man.

Rereading the series recently. I realized something. Luffy isn't dumb, he's not just resourceful, he's generally clever, and possibly the most emotionally intelligent character in the series(which might be a specialty of his observation Haki). There is a bit in Whole Cake where Jimbei literally says that he tried to think what Luffy would do in response to Capone Bege's offer, and everyone else is sure it is something Luffy would turn down, but he takes it, because he can think strategically when he needs to. However, he went and built a crew of people who are better at doing their special things better than he can, including several great minds. Once he got Nami on his crew, he checked out on thinking except when she or one of the later addition brains aren't around, he makes decisions based on what he wants, and trusts the thinking to his people he outsources his planning to. And it becomes clear when he is far enough away from them for long enough and presented with problems he can't just punch, he will start thinking again, and start thinking well. And I really love that realization.
His crew knows this too. They have full trust in each other. Luffy knows that he can leave them behind without worrying and they know that he will always have their backs. They elevate each other in a way that no other supporting cast I think does. They compliment each other instead of just being there either as equals or and comedy. They have their roles and excel in them as competent people in their own right who dont necessarily need Luffy but with him they can reach new hights.
Man, one of the reasons why I fell in love with One Piece as a kid was the feeling that Luffy understands something deeper than I do. The way he became extremely serious in specific circumstances made it apparent that Luffy was way wiser than he was portrayed as occasionally. Luffy understands the most important layer of things, while other's are unaware. He understands what truly is ethical and valuable, and that's why we like him. He is goofy and stupid until the moment arrives where he has to be serious so nothing against his ethics occurs. And we viewers mostly agree with his ethics, he just lives as if it was not apparent based on his behavior and appearance that he too understands these things, maybe even better than most.
A king of Pirates if you will
Luffy has high wisdom and low intelligence. To counteract this his crew is primarily high intelligence, low wisdom.

My friend showed me a clip from the sabaody arc and I was really confused and I didn’t get it but the passion I saw in his eyes and the way he talked about one piece reminded of when I find a great show and want someone else to enjoy too. So for 2018 I made it my New Years resolution to watch one piece and for a first time in my life I completed a resolution in just 3 months with 840 episodes. And now I wait patiently for each new manga chapter. It truly becomes addicting.
Why you watch ONLY 840 EPISODE AND READ THE MANGA,WHERE THE WANO ARC IS CURRENTLY ONGOING.
@@ikhlasulamal8067 no no, there was only that many episodes made at that time when I binged it, I’m still very current with the anime and manga now. And I’m really enjoying the Wano arc. I even cosplayed Luffy-taro back when anime conventions were still around.
Let's goooo
Are you talking about when strawhat was seperated by kuma? Coz thats what made me watch one piece back in 2012. Thru an AMV.
I strongly would recommend you to watch Wano Arc
It's animation is better than 90% of the animes that's simulcasting along weekly episodes of OP

I cried for merry😭
I can’t even comprehend the fact that the final war arc Oda’s been alluding to is going to be EVEN FUCKING BIGGER than Marineford
Just imagine that the Strawhat is gonna be the center of that war give me chills
Wano has already been pretty much as big as Marineford, so even bigger than this is going to be crazy.
Since the Yonta Maria Grand Fleet (as well as the rest of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet) is sure to take part in it, and since it consists of 56 (of course) ships and 4300 crewmen, only two of which aren't unnamed fodder, I really hope that whatever happens during that last arc, it will have naval battles like the ones Oda always wanted to make only to be discouraged by his editors.
Oh, and there's also Happo Navy, about a thousand strong and surely also with multiple ships.
Don't forget the ancient weapons.
Just imagine.
The Revolutionaries waging war with the Government at Mariejios while Luffy is claiming the One Piece (and also likely fighting Blackbeard). They're on the backfoot, when all of a sudden, the Thousand Sunny crashes into Pangea Castle using Franky's tech to propel it from the sea.
Then, just like Shanks heralded the end of Marineford, the King of the Pirates arrives to fight with Dragon and his revolutionaries for the freedom of the whole world. B/c remember, Luffy declared war on the government back at Enies Lobby. He's fulfilling that promise now.
I don't know if that's how it'll go, but man, just thinking about it at all gives me goosebumps.
This is why I dislike Toei. For all the fame and respect we give Oda as a manga author and as a person, Toei destroys it all by their constant irritating acts of dragging/milking the anime or adding more fan service just to generate more popularity and revenue. Many anime fans don’t even understand that Oda is not the one running the anime, so they just go after him as a money hungry author when we all know that’s not the case at all. Oda has put so much care and love into his story and doing what he can to please himself and his fans, but Toei’s selfish acts continue to destroy and falsely defame Oda and he’s the one who most likely bears the brunt of it. The anime is amazing, but I wish Toei would respect Oda’s own wishes more.
I do enjoy the anime, but the pacing is so whack, especially in the new world. They need to make a super cut that cuts out all the feet dragging. Most arcs, once all the repetitiveness is cut, would only be a few hours.

Geoff, I come here to find anime to watch while I'm waiting for One Piece to get ahead enough to binge again, but watching you descend into madness over the same property is a joy.
Fun fact: to this day we don't know Luffy's actual dream, but just his goal. The only hints we have to it are Ace and Sabo reacting to it the same way two other people did to Roger's dream (won't say who because of spoilers)
yeah there is a good theory that it is That he wants to have a party with the whole world. cause you know how after every arc there is a party? yeah so when he defeats the world government there is gonna be a world size party. i think it fits really well
I like that Big Party at the end-theory
also the fact how similar is
*Pirate* King -> *Party* King
Interesting!

The worst part about One Piece is that we know someday we'll have to read through a river of tears "The End".

They'll make their own version of boruto for one piece . It just makes too much money for them not to. I remember Misashi Kishimoto saying he wouldn't make anymore Naruto. So they got another mangaka and made it anyway.
Yo i wanted to spend a good day today and you're making me cry
R.I.P to people who are reading/watching One Piece after it ended
"The End" and the very last "To Be Continued" will absolutely destroy me.
Oda is quite amazing as a mangaka and as a person. I think it was a few years back now that a child said to Make A Wish Japan that they wanted to know the ending of One Piece. Oda told them in private so only they knew and jokingly begged them to not reveal it to the press.
AWWWWWWW
"There is not a human being alive who works harder or personally produces more value than Eichiiro Oda. Therefore, anyone who's got more money than him probably stole some or most of it" Facts, comrade! OP is evidence of LTV
It's not quite right because Geoff is equating monetary worth with labour value and while they are correlated they aren't quite the same thing nor always match. A lot of other factors influence price, because market and all that. Not saying that you can get much more money "ethically" though.
@@tand0r That's why he mentioned LTV, aka, Labor Theory of Value.
That said, honestly, there's also a bunch of people who make money through means other than having a market decide how much their _personal_ labour is worth (namely: generally being in a position to decide their own salary).

One piece is probably one of the greatest things that humanity has ever created. Not kidding, its just that good!

And people say one piece is bad
Next to the "Does X fruit affect genitals?" question, the most common one has to be "Reader: Is this X's birthday? *Makes pun about character with number sounds in Japanese* Oda: Yes."
They were so frequent that he had to stop accepting those questions and now there are calendars full of every character's birthday, literally thousands of them, filling up every day.
I wonder if they are all filled up or have the same bday (other than twins/multiple twins)
@@audreym3908 I believe at one point there were two days left unfilled so he asked for people to make suggestions. But yes, there are plenty of days with multiple birthdays. Remember, we're talking about many hundreds of characters, so it'd be impossible not to have overlap.
some characters ended up getting mutliple birthdays by accident becayse of this
Before reading One piece: "This is too long. I'm not gonna get invested"
After catching up: "DAMMIT WHY IS IT ON BREAK THIS WEEK?! I have at least 7 different theories I need to get confirmed in this battle!"

Bro I'm so mad how can something be so good. God I love one piece.
15 years ago I started reading onepiece. Back then, I was thinking what a cool battle manga. So his goal becoming pirate king and recruited cool 'nakama'. I am enjoying Zoro Vs Mihawk, Baratie Arc, Drum Kingdom, Alabasta Saga, Ace Introduction, Skypiea Battle, Shandora Flashback, Merry Repair Saga in Water 7, Robin Abduction to Enies Lobby and planning to stop reading at Thirller Bark. I know it is great but how long it is gonna end? So I stopped till someone tell me, Luffy had to save Ace.
Wondering what happed during my absent, so I decided to came back to read. And I am thrilled, it was one of the best and saddest arc from every manga that ever I read. At that point I decided, "Okay I need to completed this manga, no matter how long this gonna go. I will commit to finised this together". So I decided to read weekly and re-read some of early chapter to remind me whats going on.
And oh my God, It is the best. It evolve cause my understanding have grown too. Every arc bring something new to me. For example Usopp insecurity during Syrup Village Battle, Nami kindness and heartwarming family in Arlong Park, Luffy Miracle in Louge Town, Laboon and Crocus encounter at begining of Grand Line. Elbaf relationship from Dorry & Brogy, BonClay friendship, Bellamy Ignorance, Black Beard Introduction and so on.
It feel more alive and connected. Oda had planned it all from begining. He connect the dots, he makes history and plan from each supporting character. So almost everyone have role to contribute to story. Onepiece is not just random good battle manga. It is the best world building/ adventure manga. It have funny & relatable character, good driven story, real world problem/reference and the most important of all. Oda write Onepiece from his heart, it takes a lot of dedication, passion and bravery.
He teach us, Onepiece reader a lot of things. It is not just entertaiment, it have ideal and value for us to carry into the real world. Onepiece will go on for another 5 years (extimation). I hope we will reach the good closure. It doesn't have to be perfect, cause we already had great adventure during these years. I just hope Oda can finish his story and have good wonderful life.
Note: If yo haven't read OnePiece. It is good time to read. You already have more than +1000 chapter. You will have enough reading material to get hooked and don't have to endure like us. (our weekly chapter waiting). We also have access to HD anime videos. It has colour, voice actors, and fantastic music. Join our adventure today cause it will be harder for you to find motivation to join later. The chapter will grow more, and you will make more excuse. Believe me it is worth your time.
"You were really staring into the face of God. Grinning Maniacally as he bestows upon you the realization that Yes, Luffy could totally skip rope with his weenus. And Yes, that fact WILL be plot-relevant. in 500 chapters. Then, you simply weep, as you accept the inevitable sacrificial binge, and the ceremonial wait for next chapter"
The most terrifying description I've ever heard.
Me before reading One Piece: “Oh, a funny, random story about a weird rubber boy. This is so dumb, I’m going to get a giggle out of this
Me after reading One Piece: “Geez, I’m sorry. I was wrong, can I leave now?”
Oda: “No”
also Oda: "we are only about halfway done"
the fandom: "first time?"
That's false, you wouldnt to leave after reading One Piece
Oda: "I will create a world full of wonders and mysteries, and when you want to leave I will look in your eyes and say... You never leave!"
Oda: You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.
Oda-san is one of the few writers that I hold such monumental respect for. I can only dream that my own writing will come to a tenth of his skill. This is a man that has been telling an epic for over twenty years, starting his his early twenties, thus working on it for more then half his life, who's kept so many threads going to their payoff since the beginning. There are very few things in the manga that are there just to be there and I love it. I could gush endlessly but I shall hold my tongue.
nono please keep going on, I would love to hear more. I love One Piece more than anything in this world and talking about it and its complete sheer of astonishingness is what I love to do most.
One Piece still stomps every other "modern" shounen with absolute ease.
Well, the title "best shounen" kinda obviously implies that its better than other shounen....doesnt mean that I dont love the fuck out of all other shonen Ive experienced, modern aand a little older....
Hunter X Hunter is still better than it despite Oda's tremendous efforts. That just goes to show you how high the bar actually is.
@@Houlgravely I disagree. Hunter x Hunter does not even come close to the quality of One Pieces world building or long-term storytelling. I also like the characters in One Piece a lot more. I lost interest in Hunter x Hunter long ago (which is also mostly thanks to the hiatus) but One Piece still keeps me on the edge of my seat every week.
@@Houlgravely Hunter x Hunter isn’t modern
@@Houlgravely HxH has 2 good arcs.
I don’t know how my brother does it but he’s marathoned One Piece multiple times. With a full time job and still spends time watching one piece theory videos.
Edit: I’m also not talking about it like in his lifetime but rather just this year and in both languages while still playing a lot of Monsters Hunter.
As he should

Imagine your Manga being 3rd for the best Comic Books of all time worldwide. Only being behind the Batman and Superman comics. Oda is a Legend
And the fact that One Piece only has a single Author compared to the massive list of the two other titles really speaks a lot about Oda's capabilities.
“the marineford arc is bigger than anything in fiction”
and yet... it was only the filler arc when compared to the war that is coming.
Oda's art is seriously underrated. The goofy style isn't a hindrance, it's an enhancement. When something crashes into a building and the whole structure *bends and curves inwards*, you feel the impact. Exaggeration is not a bad thing, best seen in how Oda draws people crying. Luffy's power being rubber allows for some crazy and amasing angles and shots of him stretching to hit opponents and Oda takes advantage of that all the time. His use of black and white to make amazingly striking final shots are mindblowing.
And anyone who claims characters in One Piece doesn't change or develop can bite me. I'm convinced they either weren't paying enough attention or just haven't read/watched it at all. The character development in OP is actually surprisingly subtle, but it's so good.
The only reason you don't like One Piece is because you haven't watched it yet.
I can't guenated that this comment is true since i didn't like one piece ( mainly because of it's over high fans ) but after i started watching it i kinda started to understand where they are coming from the series is almost a masterpiece
@@stevs4696 the only thing that will stop one piece from being considered a master piece and the greatest anime of all time will be if Oda somehow fucks up the ending.
Yes I know greatest of all time is subjective but I think One Piece is at least forever in that conversation because of the constitent high level story telling with very few low points
@@sisilotau2185 knowing how big one piece is... There is no way in hell oda could satisfy every fan with the ending.... It would be a miracle if he even satisfys half his fans

Oda is a living legend. I'll never be able to thank him enough for all the joy that One-Piece has given me.
I just have 2 things to say, you just made me appreciate oda sensei to a whole new level, and the best part is you explained this series without major spoilers as others would force-feed you major spoilers
When you join the epic journey that is One Piece you no longer can escape it!
I'm a fan for over 10 years and it's the only anime/manga that I religiously follow every week without taking a break. My passion for One Piece is the same now as when I caught up with the series in the Thriller Bark arc.
Notice me sempai 😂
yet i am the type of fan who goes out of their way to get behind, all so i can enjoy the binge again. I never have to fear forgetting, either. It takes only a moment to remember everything that is going on in "my second reality life".
It makes my mind melt knowing just how high I'll have to climb and how hard I'll have to work, but it's my dream to one day create a story that can surpass this masterpiece...
Best of luck
Good luck
And you told Oda this, he'd smile and tell you ,"I won't lose."
All while supporting you, advising you, and being your own personal Mihawk.
@@ninnoofthelastunicorn2693 damn... this made my day, thank you :') In a way I do feel like Oda is my personal mihawk/ roger
Mine too my friend
ik it's an adventure, but I really think the slice of life aspect of One Piece is underrated. These days we rarely ever see the crew just relaxing and living at sea and continuing to build their friendships. I've heard of a bunch of headcanons that just makes the series feel even shorter. Like how maybe Robin tells Chopper bedtime stories, Brook plays the violin while Sanji cooks, Ussop and Zoro working out together, Ussop and Franky toying with some robotics, Nami and Luffy picking tangerines, Robin using her dv to massage Zoro, Ussop and Chopper playing I spy, Nami talking abt weather invention ideas with Franky, etc
The longer you wait to read One Piece, the more you'll have to catch up.
Indeed, but one of these days there will be no more new chapters, and the series will finished so we will have nothing to catch up with,
@@joshshrum2764 Life. You'll have to catch up on life.
And that is a good thing actually.
This is really funny cuz i started One piece about two weeks ago and the straw hats just got to water 7. Really enjoying the ride so far.
Oh man water 7 and enies lobby are SO GOOD YOU'RE GONNA CRY
I think the end of the water 7 arc was when I realized the series was Real Shit TM. Before that I also was just "enjoying the ride" and then found the series was unlike another and had pulled me in deeper than than I even realized, and no other show could compare.
Water 7 is the best island man
Best arc incoming next. :D
6:23
"Buggs bunny"
Well that aged well
"Fishman Island was kind of a drag" bruh it's in my top 5 arcs and that is a very competitive bracket. I still get teary eyed over Otohime and Fisher Tiger's deaths whenever I reread/rewatch.
The moment when Fisher Tiger revealed that he was a slave and he despises humans so much that he would rather died than have their blood in him but he did not want his hatred to be passed on like Otohime preached in her drunken speech asking to let the children see and decide for themselves. Then cutting back to Hody and Shirahosi, one being what Otohime feared the most and the other being what she wanted. I can’t properly put it into words but how Oda used the story of Otohime and Fisher Tiger side by side, each with pupils who inherited their will (Shirahosi and Jimbei) and depicted how racism will be handled in One Piece ending with the absolute masterclass narration box and scene “The path to the sun”. Fishman Island is easily one of my favorite arcs in One Piece.
I do like it but as a doctor the whole blood transfusion thing was a little hard for me to suspend disbelief on. I realize this is a world with literal dinosaurs and a guy that is made out of rubber but for some reason that bothered me.
@@carolbaker2773 what about it was hard to believe in particular that stood out compared to everything else in the series?
Those who read it: "Too late....."
Those who don't: "Nobody tells me what to do!" ....... "Damn!, now I'm trapped!"
It is crazy just how true this video is. I started One Piece this year around March and just reached the time skip. I don’t think any other show will make you stick with it as loyally. Even when I take breaks from it, it’s still on my mind. And then I end up watching 20 episodes daily to satisfy my need for more One Piece 😂.

So, the basic message is, "the manga is better than the anime"?
Yeah, that's like saying "the book is better than the film adaptation", it's a pretty universal concept.
I feel like this is oftentimes not true for anime bc the adaptations are so strong so frequently. Like HxH, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Jojo’s
Yeah but many people usually only try the anime version and assume they don't like it based on that and don't expect they would enjoy the manga because of that. But in many cases, it makes a huge difference. I couldn't watch more than 50 episodes of the One Piece anime but the manga is incredible.
@@Goomyx1492 same, ive followed the story since 2011 and have never watch finished an episode. the manga is just way too good
I think both the anime and the manga are good for different reasons. The manga is of course superior than the anime in terms of pacing, but the anime does good fillers like G8 and they even did episode fillers where the Strawhats are just chilling and bond with each other (eg. filler episode after Alabasta of the Straw Hats losing their memories, and built up the bond between Chopper and Robin). The jokes in the anime are executed well and can even be funnier than the manga at times (eg. The scene where the crew meets Crocus for the first time). So I think overall both are really good, but for different reasons
@@Goomyx1492 Yeah for Once Piece it is absolutely true that the manga is the way to go, but for the anime industry as a whole there are many series where you can make a pretty strong case that the anime adaptation is superior.

I've been reading one piece weekly for 20 years, started in 2001 crazy thinking back to it. I got the first novel back when I turned 7 as a birthday present from my best friend, back when our family moved. I lost contact with those friends long ago, but one piece is still a thing treasure thanks to them.

How’s it going?
I started 12 days ago and I'm on chapter 218. Is that too much? I mean it is the summer holiday
Oda said that there will be a battle coming up that makes Marineford look cute by comparison. That will be the battle that puts Endgame to shame.
It definitely will lol, but i bet the battle he is hinting at in the all out war on Laughtale, or potentially Blackbeard’s, and the Strawhats, but i doubt it’s going to be that simple if it ecplices Marineford.
The final battle is against the corruption of the World Government, meaning he wil fight most of the world.
And the world government will at last be utterly destroyed by Luffy and his gang..

Fish-Men island is one of the best arcs that draws attention to racism and the mistreatment of Fish-Men. I liked how they paced that specific arc.
I mean... it felt necessary in order to put a bow on that simmering racism plotline that had been brewing since Arlong and exploded in Sabaody. It felt like Oda just needed to get that out of the way before starting the series's momentum back up from scratch at Punk Hazzard. And it DID pick up after that, make no mistake.
It also have one of my favorites, if not my favorite moment from the whole manga... The interaction between Nami and Jinbei makes me tear up every time
@@Caernunnos yup and the hate that Hody was born into.
I enjoyed fishman island arc as well but the main antagonist was shit

One day though I decided I would give the show a try and see why it’s loved by so many. I should have heeded your warning, my life has been consumed for the past 3 weeks, all I can think about is OP. So far I’m up to the last few episodes of the Water 7 arc and holy shit this show is so good I can’t believe I hated on it for so long. I literally love this show, so far my favorite arc has been the skypiea arc, mostly because of the storyline with noland and calgara (which made me sob) and seeing eneru get his shit rocked. That being said, water 7 is definitely a great arc as well. Please send help, I can’t leave this place…every waking moment is spent watching OP, when I’m working I watch it. When I’m supposed to be sleeping I watch it. EVEN WHEN IM DRIVING I HAVE EPISODES OF ONE PIECE PLAYING
don’t crash
Hey man if you haven’t already you should also read the manga, there are a bunch of canon cover stories with previous characters/villains and question corners with Oda Sensei!
watch anime until Sabaody Arc, after that I suggest start reading manga, because anime pacing kind of kill the tension and greatness of the greatest fictional story, Marineford saga. If you watch anime you would still appriciate it but probably not as much as the manga
What I love is that a lot of great fans, when there is break, care that Oda takes his breaks. Sure, we don't like a break but this man is consistent at writing what is one of the best stories ever written, we want that kind man to be healthy!!
I kept telling those fans who’s mad with oda everytime he’s on break.. let that man rest MY GOD.. Hunter X Hunter is 1 chapter a year. Be grateful.. we need him to finish the story not die in the process. That being said.. I love One Piece and I wish nothing but the best for Oda and his family ❤️
No other manga or anime had me hook like One Piece after 23 years of reading the manga.. i’m so happy that more people realise that One Piece story-tellin is above superiority compared to Naruto or even Bleach.
One Piece is truly the most OP manga of all time
I have talked to my brother about One Piece so much and have been obsessed with it for months that he has a deep seeded hatred for it to the point that he calls it the abomination all because I talked to him about it. I have read up to Thriller Bark in like a couple months and I am hooked and shook. Water 7/Enies Lobby especially had me shook and depressed. I have never met and I don't know Oda but I have so much respect for that man and his dedication.
I’m starting one piece This weekend , wish my luck !

Me: "I'm here to say that as of yesterday I've officially caught up to the series both anime and manga, AND GODDAMN THIS IS SERIES IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I'VE EVER WITNESSED!" (Thanks to my cousin for constantly recommending it to me)
I caught up but not really what I mean is I watched the anime till the dress Rosa arc and stopped around 2017 ish and am reading the recent manga chapters I don’t want to know all of the story as of yet cuz I’d probably go crazy waiting for more content.
I did watch all the movies but I’m still keeping dress Rosa and cake island off limits 🤣
