One Piece Review

I figured I would start with a rather common and widely known anime for my first review, so I chose to do One Piece. One Piece is an anime about the age of pirates coming into play in the world they live in all looking for the greatest pirates treasure, which is named, you guessed it, One Piece. The pirate's final words were that all his treasure was together at the end of the most dangerous sea known as The Grand Line. The story follows our protagonist Monkey D. Luffy through his beginning adventures of finding a crew before setting off for the Grand Line. As a child Monkey D. Luffy ate a cursed fruit from the sea known as a Devil Fruit which turned him into a rubber man giving him powers to fight against others. While he isn't the brightest captain a crew has ever seen he creativity and loyalty grants him some of the greatest crew members he could have hoped for and together they make their way traveling through the Grand Line occasionally getting sidetracked and gaining more crew members but always continuing towards their goal.

One main reason I picked this anime over other common ones such as Naruto and Bleach is because although it's storyline and style is like theirs, One Piece tends to always follow towards its final goal, whereas Bleach and Naruto tend to fall off towards other things in the middle of the show. One Piece is a very funny and entertaining anime to watch if you are looking for one that still continues to put out episodes and have extra time to sit down and watch a couple of episodes a day. It is interesting seeing all the creative ways that Luffy and his crew come up with to fight off enemies or get past certain points in their journey. Although it can drag on some battles and make it seem a little Dragonball Zish it is still a worthwhile anime to watch and you will not be disappointed with the epic battles and the downtime between the traveling.

  1. I love Luffy, and OP is a very good show, but I feel like due to its length in episodes, the animation quality tends to lack. How do you feel about HxH? Or JoJo's Bizarre adventures? If you've seen them, make sure to do a review. Thank you :D
