You’re in for a long journey but trust us (as a fellow die hard OP fan) , you won’t be disappointed and i hope you understand why we have so much love for this anime and why we preach and glorify OP so much. A lot of crying , a lot of hate and sadness….it’s just incredible what OP did with a lot of us and still is and will. This is a international treasure made from our beloved oda sensei and i hope you’ll put as much love and effort in to OnePiece like we did/are doing. We aren’t for nothing on the big 3 team and you’re more than welcome to turn into one of us 😂💪🏽 YOOOHOOOOHOOOHOOO YOOO HO HO HOOO 💀
@@tobototokithis story makes 90% of readers/watchers bawl their eyes out over an inanimate object. Most stories show you how the characters are feeling or what emotions they are experiencing, one piece makes the watcher experience the same emotions alongside the characters.
When oda was a child, a teenager in high school. He dreamed of one day creating a manga with the most unbelievable ending that any story could ever produce and originally his plan was only for a 5 year contract with the magazine publisher, however as OP grown in popularity, he decided to expand the world and create more characters, more events, more settings, etc.. But it always comes back to that one initial goal that keeps him motivated the “ENDING”. This is something he thought of as a child which is pretty insane considering how extremely evocative the story is. His commitment and confidence and willingness to achieve that dream; to see his masterpiece end on a high note is just unprecedented. I mean often you see authors lose sight of their work somewhere down the line or start to think about drawing a different kind of story. This is not oda, he is fully 110% dedicated to one piece. I think that is why the series has maintained its quality consistency for so many years. Which begs the question, a teenager with such a ambitious dream and idea for an ending of a manga that has been running for 20+ years, just what in the holy hell is the “ending of one piece”? When his work finally does end, I think this will be a story that will live on for generations after generations as a cultural aesthetically significant piece of art that might even be taught in schools and past onto history for another 100 years.
That scene always gives me goosebumps. It gives so much perspective into who Kurohige is as a character, I really hope we get to see his origin story someday.
Oda's storytelling, world building and attention to detail is insane, his imagination is one in a million. That feeling you got when you heard those words resonates with soo many because it takes you back to that magical moment when you first had a dream and dreams are a BIG theme in this story.
@@tobototoki i believe that just go on and do one piece reaction and just take your time dont matter who urges you take how ever long it takes you enjoy it thats the important part or you could start with the live action one piece
One piece is a story about pursuing your dreams against all lots, found family, and adventure. It's a story that is changed millions of people's lives. It's the story that changed my life. Even watching this as a grown adult. This show has taught me values that I would have never found anywhere else
That is incredible to hear. I see so many people share a similar sentiment. Thank you for sharing and I can't wait to join you and everyone here on this adventure ❤️
@@tobototoki i suggest to read the manga , anime have pacing issue because its weekly anime so studios dragged the story thats why we are hopping on the remake if you have lot of patience you can watch anime
@@rajashiyam1386 Yeah, I've heard pacing is a problem for a lot of people Me personally, I have always loved the pacing except for a few parts but I've never had to skip an episode, but I can definitely agree the pacing in the first half is a little rough i some areas
Right now, there is alot of Reactors, who just watch only the first 50 episodes after they saw the Live Action, they stop, so they dont get spoilered. SO i dont see any problem, for you only watching the first 50, and then you can still decide what you gonna do. The bigger part of the Community is very welcoming, and i dont think your gonna be forced to watch more. Btw, Ashley is not the first Reactor crying at the end of this Video! :D I follow One Piece since 20 years of my life now, i saw every Anime Episode, Movie and Special, read every Chapter and it is indeed, the Greatest Story of Our Time!
That is incredible to hear that you've been on this journey for 20 years, WOW! I'm glad I'm not the only one crying on the internet about this 😂😂😂! This recommendation seems very doable. Dennis and I are considering alot of different options. Thank you so much!
I started both reading and watching One Piece in 2002 through scanslations and fansub groups. I must've been a sophomore in high school. I'm turning 38 next month. One Piece has been a regular part of my life for over 22 years. During that time I've done countless re-reads, re-watches, and every time I watch there's some new nuance or hidden meaning that I discover. It's the story that keeps on giving.
So cool to hear that you've been on this journey for over 20 years! Reading this makes me feel like a baby who is just about to learn to start walking and using its legs 😂. Can't wait to join in on the adventure with you an everyone!
Same bro! I’m a fan for 20 years! I watch one piece and rewatch and read latest chapter since I was 10 yo! I enjoy and Love The Strawhats so much when I was kid, Still do now. And exactly your point, I keep finding many hidden details and meaning in this story. As I started when I was kid, I learned a lot of things too.
Same as me, i enjoy One Piece since 2002 and I was in 4th grade elementary. But I can say back then Naruto was bigger influence for me, not until high school when I started to love writing I started to appreciate this masterpiece.
Y'ALL STOP HYPING UP ONE PIECE, I NEED TO KEEP ASHLEY'S EXPECTATIONS LOW 😂 But forreal thank you all for the love and support, it means the world to us. If you want to stay updated with us on how we handle the One Piece reactions, make sure to subscibe! Arigato nakamas ❤
One piece live action trust me especially if yu as a fan haven t watched it its not perfect but yull still enjoy it and shell love it and shell get the first 50 episodes in 10 episodes. its a good skip and kick off to get into one piece i think its just the best way to introduce someone to the world nowadays
@@phar0ahad3 Well, if they are afraid of the lenght in the anime I would also recommend the LA, but if they could go for the anime that would be way better.
The One Piece is Real !!!! Oda (the author) is a very dreamer and funny person, based at his interaction with his readers at the SBS (questions he answers) he likes to study and have alot of historical stuff at his house, I dont think he travels but he actually is a very well know of things person (if that makes sense)
I've been reading One Piece for over 2 decades, and it blows my mind that I've never grown bored or disinterested in the story! I WILL CRY! when it ends...
Lmao, as soon as you started tearing up, i suddenly acquired future sight and could see you sobbing at every future emotional one piece moment🤣 and there's a lot
UPDATE: We've just launched a poll to get your guys' opinions on how you'd like us to start with One Piece! If you'd like to vote, please check out our latest Community post. SO EXCITED TO START
Professionally speaking, there's a huge community of OP fans on youtube that enjoy watching people take their OP journey. I've seen channels blow up in a matter of months just for starting it. OP fans will got you if you decide to start reacting to it.
If this woman is crying from 1 BB quote, shes already a One Piece fan. The original anime will countless laughs, tears, and cheers. Dont wait for the remake because it will take forever for them to produce it.
Bro, you saw her cry at the end of the video. As her nakama, it'd be a disservice to not go one this journey together with her, and honestly, I'd be completely down to watch.
The people's dream never end has many meaning attached to it. Some people have innocuous dream since young, and it remain pure. While others have wild dream corrupted by selfish ambition. The way they achieve their dream determines their alignment of good vs evil. The innocuous dream of having a tea party with every races of the world. The dream of being invisible so you can sneak into women's bath. The dream of wanting to live. The dream of being able to die. The dream of being able to sleep at night. The dream of being the strongest. The dream of living on land. Some are self serving ambition, some are hopeful imagination, some are childhood dream, some are wishful desire.
You probably didn't recognize things from the video because they took stuff from movies and specials, that's also why the animation style was so varied.
I love the thumbnail with luffy giving ashley her well deserved hug 😭❤ I love this channel I hope you get to watch or read one piece some time. It's an experience that you will probably cherish for a long, long time. It's a wonderfull story that's all about fighting for your freedom, standing up against oppression alongside your loved ones, and adventures into islands beyond your wildest imaginations!
"People's dreams...never end!" A great choice for a final line, one that gives me shivers. It hits especially hard knowing the context of who is saying, and why. One Piece is a very long journey, but it's one well worth taking.
Imagine that feeling Ashley is having in the end of that video happening 100x over and every arc it gets bigger and bigger. Even now in the latest episodes and chapters my mind is still exploding 🤯😊❤
Oda is one of the only authors where I truly felt like he was waaaaaaaaay smarter than me. He knows so much. So much in One Piece is inspired by events in history and idk how he even has the time to research and know about all that stuff. It's crazy to me
When I heard that it was in the final saga too I got an existential crisis AAAAAAAH. I've been a fan for more than a decade and hearing that was.... idk what to say. After watching the live action I rewatched the anime (I skipped the filler parts), and then I watched tons of reactors react to the live action and the anime just so I could relive the emotions again. I just don't want it to end 😅
I love watching people watch one piece. I wish I could watch it all over for the first time. I was so captured by one piece I Binge watched from Ep 1 to at the time End of the First Half of the Grand Line (Which is about 520 eps at the time) in 2 weeks over a break during college.
Hello, I don't know how I ended up here but I'm from Brazil and I decided to tell you about my experience of more than 10 years following One Piece. After reading some comments on this video I see many of my own experiences reflected. One Piece is a story that has been there my whole life. It doesn't matter what language we speak, because One Piece is universal, something that anyone can recognize, something that will make us laugh. It's always good to be able to talk about One Piece, as I've been in the One Piece community for over 10 years, I can say without fear of making mistakes that it doesn't matter which media you start with, the community will give you all the support
Happy you landed here! That's incredible that you've been following along for 10 years! We're so excited to start this journey soon. We just released a poll on whether you all think we should start with the live action, or the anime first 😊 Make sure to check it out!
i always say that watching one piece is not about catching up. its about the journey. so i would recomend watching the og anime in ur own pace, no mather how many episodes per week u react or how fast ur watching it. ppl are gonna love it either way. and at some point ur thinking to urself, how fast this was over and wish for more episodes ❤
Can confirm, greatest story ever told. You got the motivation now to watch it and that's a great time to start xD Subbing for the inevitable OP reactions to come!
thank you so much for joining our tobototoki family ❤️. We're very happy to have you here!! We'll be sure to keep you all updated on how we'll tackle One Piece!
My opinion, if u watch One Piece you should not think about catching up the latest episode. Do not rush, just enjoy your ride and appreciate what is in front of you. Trust me, if u rush, you might loose some tiny beauty it offers😊
Ha! I'm pretty old and just got around to watching One Piece for the first time this year... I purposely stopped watching around episode 950 ha! Because I don't want to catch up to new chapters. Because I love it so much.
i feel like a kid reading one piece it takes me to a different world v similar to how in narnia how they're in a completely different world past that cupboard that's how i feel about OP ❤ It will always be my first love
And Oda has actually reduced his output over the last six years...by Doctor's Orders. He's worked himself into the hospital with exhaustion. The Mangaka work schedule is generally an abomination, and Oda pushes it to the limit.
chasing ur dreams no matter what is a major plot point of the show. multiple characters chasing their own dreams is One Piece in a nutshell a yr ago i gave it a shot and im now halfway there and cant shut up ab how good it is. i rarely cry watching anything and this goofy show has made me cry so much its ridiculous. and its not just sad cries, its happy cries too to newcomers all i can say is just watch the first 46 eps which is the east blue saga. if u like it, then u'll love the whole show. if not at least u know whats the vibe and the got to know the main crew
@@tobototoki I don't recoment live action unless you are feeling too lazy to start. Although the live action is good, it isn't near the original source. Also, the live action have huge spoilers that is only shown in anime after 300 episodes, far beyond the point where the history of live action is taken.
Dreams, the will of people being passed down to others to carry on is a very central (probably the most important) pillar of the story. One of the most impactful and memorable quote from the story: "When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when… they are forgotten."
All I can say is, life’s too short, you don’t know what happens in the future if you really want to watch it just go ahead and watch it 😁 Don’t let anything stop you from watching something you enjoy 👌🏼 I 100% agree with you that OP is the greatest story ever told and guess what, it only gets better 😭😭
I can't believe I hadn't seen your reaction to this yet! This video does include scenes from the movies too. That's probably why some of them don't seem familiar. I've _never_ been able to make it through The Breathtaking World of One Piece without crying, not when watching it on my own, and not when watching reactors react to it. It's so beautifully done. It's an incredible journey you've started. This is The Odyssey for the modern world. This story goes beyond anime and manga. It goes beyond fantasy. The story and the world - fiction writers should study this. This is a masterpiece. I don't say that lightly. I am dreading the day when it ends. At this point, these characters are almost real. I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.
If that was the reaction to just the end of that video, this show will probably be for you (you are not ready). Although no story is perfect and everyone has their tastes, I agree with Dennis and personally feel this is and most likely will be the greatest story told in our lifetime. Not trying to overhype it but I got into anime and was always into books from a young age but always thought OP looked too goofy for me to get into it. I eventually gave it a shot almost 15 years ago and has become my favorite story, waiting like a fiend to analyze each chapter weekly. In a way OP made me feel more human. If you choose to take the plunge I look forward to following your journey. Subbed!
First of all, thank you for agreeing with me, I can tell you're a person with taste 😁. Dude i'm the exact same way, I look forward to every chapter. We will definitely be taking the plunge! Thank you so much for joining along with us!
@@tobototoki Likewise aha. I'll chime in with some interesting non spoiler information during your journey that my 15 years of analyzing One Piece have afforded me to make the journey all the more fun! Cheers and looking forward for what comes! 😎
You earned your self a new subscriber I had watched this video so many time including watch people react to it and everytime i feel emotional specially the point we are in manga always shout endgame.
So I'm mnot the only one crying at the end of the video! I think it comes from the epicness of the music and the chosen words. I'm a huge OP fan and I cry watching it, because it can be so damn emotional, but this is definitely the music here.
Watching this video makes me jealous because you can tell one piece is a show that Ashley will love. Being able to experience the journey for the first time again is something we all wish to do and so we watch reactions like this. All the core themes like dreams, adventure, joy you can just tell she’ll love it im so jealous 😭
You’re so right - if I could erase my memory of One Piece and start over, I think I would. I’m really glad you’re able to join us for this ride ❤️ it will take a long time, but we’re here for the entire journey!
I am subbing just because I want to see your guys go through it from the beginning. If you can do 4 eps a vid, I will wait and be excited to see your reactions! I would rather see you go through the original so that when the remake does come out, who knows when, you can get more content by reacting to the remake and make comparisons to the original, just a thought that I hope you guys do!
Yea right now we're considering whether we should react to the LA first before the original anime or vice versa. So we will definitely be reacting to the OG before the remake comes out. Thank you for wanting to join this adventure with us!
As a OP's fan since 97' , this video made me emotional also. So really good fan made without spoilers and awesome edition and music (I think i recognize one from Batman and one from Avatar 1). Thing about not remember some islands is maybe because some came from so many movies (more than 10 movies) too. If they made a MMORPG, like WOW, this would be awesome because there are so many islands that we could have story in past/present/futur. If Blizzard for example take the case, they could have so many people for this OP's MMORPG. Oda is an awesome story teller and the fact he successfully make us cry for some objet (no spoil) for example is amazing.
i really enjoyed listening to a long-time fan rant about one piece! i myself only got into one piece recently but already love it as well. this was nice! thank you!
We don't know about the queality of what is yet to come, but we know we already have the greatest story made right on front of us. So just devour what we already have * - *
Asking too late for "Are you crying?" I already crying into 15 seconds of this breathtaking video😭 maybe because I already watching One Piece, I love it and forever will💜 thank you for the reaction
I don't know if Oda traveled around the world before writing One Piece, but I know he has done extensive research on pirates because based on the characters that he creates. Some of the characters resemble actual real people including names as well. Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, is Oda's biggest influence.
Funny story, there's a video called something like "One Piece, the greatest story ever told". It's amazing storytellingwise, but maybe has too many spoilers to have someone new watching it, especially if they're already sold on watching the show. It still helps show people OP is more than a "kid story about too happy pirates with bad charadesign" (which basically summarize the worst comments online coming from people who have never watched the show...).
Chiming in as a disabled vet that literally needed to be retaught how to properly feel and express emotion again, Oda has created something with One Piece that has a direct line to my heart and soul, and there is so much in this world he made and the character/relationship dynamics established that you can show me any of the "emotional hits" moments in this "children's show"(hate when people say this xD) and my breathe will guaranteed catch in my chest with a good 75% chance of rain from my face.
@@tobototoki kind of you! But soon you shall see I and many others are here for your TEARS IMUhahahahHAHAHAHA. (That's mainly for your comment checker to chuckle at, since they too likely feel tight chested with a single musical note and a still photo of certain parts of the series xD)
This is one of my favorite anime! After I watched the Live Action. I binged watch the anime right away and I finished it for 4 months and now I’m waiting for another episode 1094😅
You gonna love one piece for some reason coz one piece is real life unlike to other shonen This is fantasy but the world of one piece can related in our real world
As cool as the remake is gonna be, starting a show from 1999 also has its nostalgia charm to it. And to be honest you get used to the dated graphics pretty quickly. I'd vote just watch it and don't wait. Hope to see you guys on the seas 😊
If you got so emotional only for landscapes video, I really would love to see you react to the whole one piece story itself))) Because the story never fails to bring you an extraordinary amount of EMOTIONS :D And it's a true joy to see someone experience them in the first time) Almost like I can feel it as a first time again through your feelings))
We will definitely be reacting!! We're just trying to figure out the pacing 😊 We're happy you'll be joining along for the emotional rollercoaster with us!
I think you both could give the Live Action a chance , even if you can't commit to the anime (yet) . The remake is very likely to take a few years to release , and will only initially cover the East Blue Saga . By the time is out , Season 2 of the live action will most likely already be out . Of course i say that hoping that the Live action draws and hype you in enough to forego all fears and start the current anime lol
You can start with the Live Action, despite having similar plot ther's also a lot changes that they made, then you can also compare which is better and fun to watch lol
Maybe the reason why u get emotional to it is, the narrative it self talking about unexplored world, and showing new adventure in our thought. A feeling that we never felt since we're just a kid. Or maybe we just tired with the explored reality, we tired knowing and disappointing. This video give hope, give another opportunity to explore things. For me this video push me back, let me see bigger picture about world. Remind me that our world isn't small and dark as we thought.
iam really glad i read that comment. if you only watched the remake you would never be able to enjoy the change in animation and the old style of the show :)
JUST DO IT! The Anime is a WIN WIN situation, You got me hooked on your reaction and I'm glad to be your new fan/subscriber, but yeah it would be best if you finish all the pending series you have so you can focus on One Piece and I know it will be a unforgettable ride that I can say, I was here before you both started. Hopefully you can start as soon as possible so me and our other nakamas can sail and do the journey together. Thank you for making my day with your reaction.
OMG thank you so much, you made our day with this comment!!! We are so happy to have you join along this adventure with us and we are ABSOLUTELY going to watch OP! We just gotta figure out the best way to do it. We maaaay launch a poll in the next couple of days, but eithr way, we'll make sure to keep you all posted!! ❤️❤️❤️
Not yet!!! Dennis has though. I'm seeing mixed reviews here saying watch the LA before the anime. At the moment, I'm thinking we go the anime route first!
As someone who has watched as my childhood... Good luck with the storyline... And how 24 years has been airing that I rewatch back within 10 days only 😂... Hope you guys gonna like to watch this anime till the end☺️☺️ Edit: I write this before watching your video 😂

Make sure to simply skip the filler arcs. You can find episode guides online. Except for G8. That filler is actually worth it.
If this video made you cry even without having read/seen OP you have no idea what an (awesomely) emotional ride OP is. I cannot recommend it enough.

When oda was a child, a teenager in high school.

One piece live action trust me especially if yu as a fan haven t watched it its not perfect but yull still enjoy it and shell love it and shell get the first 50 episodes in 10 episodes. its a good skip and kick off to get into one piece i think its just the best way to introduce someone to the world nowadays
@@phar0ahad3 Well, if they are afraid of the lenght in the anime I would also recommend the LA, but if they could go for the anime that would be way better.
we are definitely considering all the options right now! Thank you for your rec!
"Are you crying?"
"Yeah I don't know why!"
Welcome to One Piece.
The One Piece is Real !!!!
Oda (the author) is a very dreamer and funny person, based at his interaction with his readers at the SBS (questions he answers) he likes to study and have alot of historical stuff at his house, I dont think he travels but he actually is a very well know of things person (if that makes sense)
He has said he wants to travel the world after he finishes One Piece
I've been reading One Piece for over 2 decades, and it blows my mind that I've never grown bored or disinterested in the story! I WILL CRY! when it ends...
Lmao, as soon as you started tearing up, i suddenly acquired future sight and could see you sobbing at every future emotional one piece moment🤣 and there's a lot
you are absolutely correct about this. I am going to start investing in waterproof makeup 🤣
UPDATE: We've just launched a poll to get your guys' opinions on how you'd like us to start with One Piece! If you'd like to vote, please check out our latest Community post. SO EXCITED TO START
Professionally speaking, there's a huge community of OP fans on youtube that enjoy watching people take their OP journey. I've seen channels blow up in a matter of months just for starting it. OP fans will got you if you decide to start reacting to it.
we will definitely be reacting to it in one way or another!
I've seen this so many times. The ending never fails to give me chills.
it was too good!
If this woman is crying from 1 BB quote, shes already a One Piece fan. The original anime will countless laughs, tears, and cheers. Dont wait for the remake because it will take forever for them to produce it.
“End in a couple of years “ hahahahaha
Bro, you saw her cry at the end of the video. As her nakama, it'd be a disservice to not go one this journey together with her, and honestly, I'd be completely down to watch.
haha bro we are DEFINITELY going down this journey. Just figuring out how we're gonna fit this into the schedule!
The people's dream never end has many meaning attached to it.
Some people have innocuous dream since young, and it remain pure. While others have wild dream corrupted by selfish ambition.
The way they achieve their dream determines their alignment of good vs evil.
The innocuous dream of having a tea party with every races of the world.
The dream of being invisible so you can sneak into women's bath.
The dream of wanting to live.
The dream of being able to die.
The dream of being able to sleep at night.
The dream of being the strongest.
The dream of living on land.
Some are self serving ambition, some are hopeful imagination, some are childhood dream, some are wishful desire.
(This is Dennis) - probably the most beautiful thing I've read in a long time! Thank you for sharing this!
"Literally why am I crying?!" - Welcome to One Piece!
1000+ episode plus 15 movies. I will always love it over anything else, It's own cultures and themes much more that show our own world in it.
If she cried with the words of Blackbeard in the end of this video, she isn't ready for One Piece. She will cry her eyes out! hahahaha
I should have Dennis make a video tallying compilation of every time I cry when we watch and react to release at the end 😂😂😂
When the ancient kingdom appear goosebumps is real
You probably didn't recognize things from the video because they took stuff from movies and specials, that's also why the animation style was so varied.
ah that makes sense
You understand that this video is very well made when it makes you cry without even having red the manga yet
This is big facts 🙌
I’m a new sub, and a new watcher of one piece. I started about a month ago and I’m already around the mid 500s in terms of episodes. Can’t get enough!
lol
thank you for coming along this journey with us! Wow you're going through it FAST!
I love the thumbnail with luffy giving ashley her well deserved hug 😭❤ I love this channel I hope you get to watch or read one piece some time. It's an experience that you will probably cherish for a long, long time. It's a wonderfull story that's all about fighting for your freedom, standing up against oppression alongside your loved ones, and adventures into islands beyond your wildest imaginations!
(This is Dennis) - Ashley is literally the thumbnail Queen. I can't wait for her to experience everything about OP! IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN
"People's dreams...never end!"
A great choice for a final line, one that gives me shivers. It hits especially hard knowing the context of who is saying, and why.
One Piece is a very long journey, but it's one well worth taking.
Also you can watch the live action, is a good adaptation with 8 episodes, it covers like the first arc of the original material
Imagine that feeling Ashley is having in the end of that video happening 100x over and every arc it gets bigger and bigger.
Even now in the latest episodes and chapters my mind is still exploding 🤯😊❤
Dennis here - you and me both!! Excited to bring her into the OP journey!
Oda is one of the only authors where I truly felt like he was waaaaaaaaay smarter than me. He knows so much. So much in One Piece is inspired by events in history and idk how he even has the time to research and know about all that stuff. It's crazy to me
"why am i crying" me every 20 or so episodes
So true lol
Start watching cause it hits different when you're up to date. And you know the ending will be the best one ever.
we definitely will watch!
When I heard that it was in the final saga too I got an existential crisis AAAAAAAH. I've been a fan for more than a decade and hearing that was.... idk what to say. After watching the live action I rewatched the anime (I skipped the filler parts), and then I watched tons of reactors react to the live action and the anime just so I could relive the emotions again. I just don't want it to end 😅
My friend .. SAME. Also btw - we just checked out your art page and HOLY you are SO talented!!! Do you take commissions? 👀👀👀 haha
Same here dude. 9/10. Kihings will be here.
@@PriyanGshuuu So talented with art. 9.5/10
Subbed for One Piece. I can see on how you two talk about things that this will be such a journey.
Welcome aboard! ❤️❤️
I love watching people watch one piece. I wish I could watch it all over for the first time. I was so captured by one piece I Binge watched from Ep 1 to at the time End of the First Half of the Grand Line (Which is about 520 eps at the time) in 2 weeks over a break during college.
That's CRAZY! Did you set a world record? 😂
Hello, I don't know how I ended up here but I'm from Brazil and I decided to tell you about my experience of more than 10 years following One Piece. After reading some comments on this video I see many of my own experiences reflected. One Piece is a story that has been there my whole life. It doesn't matter what language we speak, because One Piece is universal, something that anyone can recognize, something that will make us laugh. It's always good to be able to talk about One Piece, as I've been in the One Piece community for over 10 years, I can say without fear of making mistakes that it doesn't matter which media you start with, the community will give you all the support
Happy you landed here! That's incredible that you've been following along for 10 years!
We're so excited to start this journey soon. We just released a poll on whether you all think we should start with the live action, or the anime first 😊 Make sure to check it out!
i always say that watching one piece is not about catching up. its about the journey. so i would recomend watching the og anime in ur own pace, no mather how many episodes per week u react or how fast ur watching it. ppl are gonna love it either way. and at some point ur thinking to urself, how fast this was over and wish for more episodes ❤
People's dreams never end
~from a Kind and a loving man
Can confirm, greatest story ever told. You got the motivation now to watch it and that's a great time to start xD Subbing for the inevitable OP reactions to come!
thank you so much for joining our tobototoki family ❤️. We're very happy to have you here!! We'll be sure to keep you all updated on how we'll tackle One Piece!
My opinion, if u watch One Piece you should not think about catching up the latest episode. Do not rush, just enjoy your ride and appreciate what is in front of you. Trust me, if u rush, you might loose some tiny beauty it offers😊
Ha! I'm pretty old and just got around to watching One Piece for the first time this year... I purposely stopped watching around episode 950 ha! Because I don't want to catch up to new chapters. Because I love it so much.
i feel like a kid reading one piece it takes me to a different world v similar to how in narnia how they're in a completely different world past that cupboard that's how i feel about OP ❤ It will always be my first love
Dennis feels the same way!!
And Oda has actually reduced his output over the last six years...by Doctor's Orders. He's worked himself into the hospital with exhaustion. The Mangaka work schedule is generally an abomination, and Oda pushes it to the limit.
chasing ur dreams no matter what is a major plot point of the show. multiple characters chasing their own dreams is One Piece in a nutshell
a yr ago i gave it a shot and im now halfway there and cant shut up ab how good it is. i rarely cry watching anything and this goofy show has made me cry so much its ridiculous. and its not just sad cries, its happy cries too
to newcomers all i can say is just watch the first 46 eps which is the east blue saga. if u like it, then u'll love the whole show. if not at least u know whats the vibe and the got to know the main crew
thank you for your insight!! I'm excited to happy and ugly/sad cry all at the same time very soon!
React to the live action, which cover 80% of East Blue Saga in 8 episodes. And if Ashley says MOAR, then Star the anime.
hahahaha thank you for your recommendation!
@@tobototoki I don't recoment live action unless you are feeling too lazy to start. Although the live action is good, it isn't near the original source. Also, the live action have huge spoilers that is only shown in anime after 300 episodes, far beyond the point where the history of live action is taken.
Dreams, the will of people being passed down to others to carry on is a very central (probably the most important) pillar of the story.
One of the most impactful and memorable quote from the story:
"When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when… they are forgotten."
All I can say is, life’s too short, you don’t know what happens in the future if you really want to watch it just go ahead and watch it 😁 Don’t let anything stop you from watching something you enjoy 👌🏼 I 100% agree with you that OP is the greatest story ever told and guess what, it only gets better 😭😭
Well said!
@@tobototoki Thank you 😊
I can't believe I hadn't seen your reaction to this yet! This video does include scenes from the movies too. That's probably why some of them don't seem familiar.
I've _never_ been able to make it through The Breathtaking World of One Piece without crying, not when watching it on my own, and not when watching reactors react to it. It's so beautifully done.
It's an incredible journey you've started.
This is The Odyssey for the modern world. This story goes beyond anime and manga. It goes beyond fantasy. The story and the world - fiction writers should study this.
This is a masterpiece. I don't say that lightly.
I am dreading the day when it ends. At this point, these characters are almost real. I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.
If that was the reaction to just the end of that video, this show will probably be for you (you are not ready). Although no story is perfect and everyone has their tastes, I agree with Dennis and personally feel this is and most likely will be the greatest story told in our lifetime. Not trying to overhype it but I got into anime and was always into books from a young age but always thought OP looked too goofy for me to get into it. I eventually gave it a shot almost 15 years ago and has become my favorite story, waiting like a fiend to analyze each chapter weekly. In a way OP made me feel more human. If you choose to take the plunge I look forward to following your journey. Subbed!
First of all, thank you for agreeing with me, I can tell you're a person with taste 😁. Dude i'm the exact same way, I look forward to every chapter. We will definitely be taking the plunge! Thank you so much for joining along with us!
@@tobototoki Likewise aha. I'll chime in with some interesting non spoiler information during your journey that my 15 years of analyzing One Piece have afforded me to make the journey all the more fun! Cheers and looking forward for what comes! 😎
I thought I was the only one who loved the words at the end "People dreams never end" Its amazing bcs its true.
it is!!
You earned your self a new subscriber
I had watched this video so many time including watch people react to it and everytime i feel emotional specially the point we are in manga always shout endgame.
Welcome to the Tobototoki fam!❤️ Very happy to have you join in on our adventure! :)
Hands down this is the best one piece edit. Makes me cry everytime.
So I'm mnot the only one crying at the end of the video! I think it comes from the epicness of the music and the chosen words. I'm a huge OP fan and I cry watching it, because it can be so damn emotional, but this is definitely the music here.
Music choice was chefs kiss! Happy to hear i'm not the only one crying as well! 😂
Watching this video makes me jealous because you can tell one piece is a show that Ashley will love. Being able to experience the journey for the first time again is something we all wish to do and so we watch reactions like this. All the core themes like dreams, adventure, joy you can just tell she’ll love it im so jealous 😭
You’re so right - if I could erase my memory of One Piece and start over, I think I would. I’m really glad you’re able to join us for this ride ❤️ it will take a long time, but we’re here for the entire journey!
@@tobototoki ahahahah thanks for replying, I’ll definitely keep watching and can’t wait to see updates of Ashleys one piece journey!!
“People’s dream… never end!” One of the few very iconic lines from One Piece.
Im locked in for 1000+ episodes ! You both are amazing !!
YOU'RE AMAZING ❤️
I am subbing just because I want to see your guys go through it from the beginning. If you can do 4 eps a vid, I will wait and be excited to see your reactions! I would rather see you go through the original so that when the remake does come out, who knows when, you can get more content by reacting to the remake and make comparisons to the original, just a thought that I hope you guys do!
Yea right now we're considering whether we should react to the LA first before the original anime or vice versa. So we will definitely be reacting to the OG before the remake comes out. Thank you for wanting to join this adventure with us!
As a OP's fan since 97' , this video made me emotional also. So really good fan made without spoilers and awesome edition and music (I think i recognize one from Batman and one from Avatar 1). Thing about not remember some islands is maybe because some came from so many movies (more than 10 movies) too. If they made a MMORPG, like WOW, this would be awesome because there are so many islands that we could have story in past/present/futur. If Blizzard for example take the case, they could have so many people for this OP's MMORPG. Oda is an awesome story teller and the fact he successfully make us cry for some objet (no spoil) for example is amazing.
If there is ever a One Piece MMORPG, I would die a happy man
i really enjoyed listening to a long-time fan rant about one piece! i myself only got into one piece recently but already love it as well. this was nice! thank you!
so nice to hear you enjoyed my love for One Piece! We're in the endgame now
One piece is peak fiction. Perfect place to start is the live action now that we have one which is well doctored given the length of the first arc.
Always a joy finding new reactors to One piece
We don't know about the queality of what is yet to come, but we know we already have the greatest story made right on front of us. So just devour what we already have * - *
I'm never getting tired of people reacting to this masterpiece!
Asking too late for "Are you crying?" I already crying into 15 seconds of this breathtaking video😭 maybe because I already watching One Piece, I love it and forever will💜 thank you for the reaction
Thank you for your comment! ❤️ Expect more tears in our One Piece reactions 😂
@@tobototoki Yeah for sure
1 person created it... One team Draws it... Multiple teams animate it... the whole world gets to enjoy and live it out...
Well said ❤️
yeah, i think i can agree with alot of the people saying to look into the live action, its a great dive into the world of One Piece.
Surprised you haven’t gone full send on this. Never watched your channel but it’s always amazing to watch new OP fans start their journey
We’re releasing our reactions to ep 1-2 next Tues :)
I don't know if Oda traveled around the world before writing One Piece, but I know he has done extensive research on pirates because based on the characters that he creates. Some of the characters resemble actual real people including names as well. Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, is Oda's biggest influence.
yes Dennis mentioned this to me after!
Funny story, there's a video called something like "One Piece, the greatest story ever told". It's amazing storytellingwise, but maybe has too many spoilers to have someone new watching it, especially if they're already sold on watching the show. It still helps show people OP is more than a "kid story about too happy pirates with bad charadesign" (which basically summarize the worst comments online coming from people who have never watched the show...).
Chiming in as a disabled vet that literally needed to be retaught how to properly feel and express emotion again, Oda has created something with One Piece that has a direct line to my heart and soul, and there is so much in this world he made and the character/relationship dynamics established that you can show me any of the "emotional hits" moments in this "children's show"(hate when people say this xD) and my breathe will guaranteed catch in my chest with a good 75% chance of rain from my face.
First off, thank you for your service!! We're so glad you found this channel and stick around with us as we relive all the stories of One Piece
@@tobototoki kind of you! But soon you shall see I and many others are here for your TEARS IMUhahahahHAHAHAHA. (That's mainly for your comment checker to chuckle at, since they too likely feel tight chested with a single musical note and a still photo of certain parts of the series xD)
I don't know how I arrive to this video but I enjoyed a lot and I want you can watch this awesome adventure.
thank you so much! Glad you stumbled upon us!
When this amazing story finally ends... I'll be sad it's over, but I'll bet happy because we discovered the One Piece!
This is one of my favorite anime! After I watched the Live Action. I binged watch the anime right away and I finished it for 4 months and now I’m waiting for another episode 1094😅
holy crap 4 months is FAST!
yes!! 12-15 ep per day haha@@tobototoki
You gonna love one piece for some reason coz one piece is real life unlike to other shonen
This is fantasy but the world of one piece can related in our real world
As cool as the remake is gonna be, starting a show from 1999 also has its nostalgia charm to it. And to be honest you get used to the dated graphics pretty quickly. I'd vote just watch it and don't wait. Hope to see you guys on the seas 😊
We're definitely gonna watch soon! See you there!😁
If you got so emotional only for landscapes video, I really would love to see you react to the whole one piece story itself))) Because the story never fails to bring you an extraordinary amount of EMOTIONS :D And it's a true joy to see someone experience them in the first time) Almost like I can feel it as a first time again through your feelings))
We will definitely be reacting!! We're just trying to figure out the pacing 😊 We're happy you'll be joining along for the emotional rollercoaster with us!
600 chapters is when i started my 3rd reread. i am so old...
The best story ever read or watch ❤️
Damn if that got her to tear up a little One piece is going to do her dirty with the emotional stuff in the story lol
literally preparing my bulk tissue order from Costco for this show
Finish whatever you're watching right now and when its done watch it in a few episodes at a time..
is that a giant ? yeah technically, but more tame than AOT one
I think you both could give the Live Action a chance , even if you can't commit to the anime (yet) . The remake is very likely to take a few years to release , and will only initially cover the East Blue Saga . By the time is out , Season 2 of the live action will most likely already be out . Of course i say that hoping that the Live action draws and hype you in enough to forego all fears and start the current anime lol
After watching this fanmade video, I can confirm that there's no fear in starting this adventure!
Oda began writing/planning one piece when he was 14 years old.
HOLY! That is incredible
Yea that's why it kinda starts in more a childsh way and only matures with time
You just can feel that one piece is a fucking good series when a exposition video aobut the environtment makes your tear up :D same hear xd
I don't know if One piece is the best story ever told, but it surely is the best story I know by a good margin.
Gotta be up there with The Odyssey and LOTR.
You can start with the Live Action, despite having similar plot ther's also a lot changes that they made, then you can also compare which is better and fun to watch lol
Since you started it, there's no turning back 👌🏴☠️
Maybe the reason why u get emotional to it is, the narrative it self talking about unexplored world, and showing new adventure in our thought. A feeling that we never felt since we're just a kid. Or maybe we just tired with the explored reality, we tired knowing and disappointing. This video give hope, give another opportunity to explore things. For me this video push me back, let me see bigger picture about world. Remind me that our world isn't small and dark as we thought.
well said and so very true. thanks for sharing this ❤️
our world is going to go berserk when this story ends in a few years! so for now it still remains an untold story right up to this day!
amen
The fact that you didn't know why are you crying while watching this❤
hahaha yes it was hard to articulate my emotions at the time when we were watching!
We cry with you sister o7
thank you for crying with me!! 😂
iam really glad i read that comment. if you only watched the remake you would never be able to enjoy the change in animation and the old style of the show :)
People's Dreams have no end!! It hit hard cuz you're a dreamer!!!!!!
❤️❤️
JUST DO IT! The Anime is a WIN WIN situation, You got me hooked on your reaction and I'm glad to be your new fan/subscriber, but yeah it would be best if you finish all the pending series you have so you can focus on One Piece and I know it will be a unforgettable ride that I can say, I was here before you both started.
Hopefully you can start as soon as possible so me and our other nakamas can sail and do the journey together.
Thank you for making my day with your reaction.
OMG thank you so much, you made our day with this comment!!! We are so happy to have you join along this adventure with us and we are ABSOLUTELY going to watch OP! We just gotta figure out the best way to do it. We maaaay launch a poll in the next couple of days, but eithr way, we'll make sure to keep you all posted!! ❤️❤️❤️
Have you guys watched the One Piece live action?
Not yet!!! Dennis has though. I'm seeing mixed reviews here saying watch the LA before the anime. At the moment, I'm thinking we go the anime route first!
"people's dreams, never end"
As someone who has watched as my childhood... Good luck with the storyline... And how 24 years has been airing that I rewatch back within 10 days only 😂...
Hope you guys gonna like to watch this anime till the end☺️☺️
Edit: I write this before watching your video 😂
hahaha we most definitely will love it!
