I wonder how Oda feels or even realizes about most of his readers, but never have I been so scared shitless by an anime fanbase before One Piece. I have followed OP from it's beginning to Dressrosa, and as a result, I do know what makes it good and bad, but this cannot ever be mentioned in public. One Piece fans do not take any kind of criticism lightly, because if you so much as say anything negative from what I've seen, you will get some of the most disturbing threats or harassment imaginable. I am not trying to dismiss everyone who enjoy it for what it is, because there might be logical fans out there, but this is just the worst I have ever seen. Only because for the past week I have been observing the series again, and had unfortunate incidents with it's followers do I bring this up.

I think the only thing that came close to this level of deep disturbance, is the time of when Sword Art Online was relevant. But please share your thoughts.

They don't really scare me that's for sure, and as you said there are many logical fans out there for the series, I've met many to begin with. However, yes, they do defend the series to the point of me asking myself what is just SO DAMN GOOD about it.

I love the comedy and the characters. I've stuck together with them for 610 episodes, and when One Piece gets good it really does, but then again you have to wait around 20 episodes so that the arc can be introduced, or an entire arc if turns out to be bad.

I'd say due to One Piece's popularity fans truly think its for some reason the absolute best, and so many people used it as gateway as well as the 'only anime that they've watched' so it takes part in their overall opinion.

That's just me though. I really don't see something truly intriguing with it, I watched it on my own pace and it wasn't bad, but it was just 'fun'.
So, What do you think is on the other side?

I think you've been watching too much TV, there's no such thing as a valid reason to criticize One Piece.



From what I can tell, the OP fan base isn't unique in that sense. You'll see this kind of extremist attitude in every anime fan base, just more so in the bigger titles because of the larger, more vocal gatherings. Why? Because it's human nature to defend the honor and pride of something one treasures no matter what it takes. I mean, look at nationalism - one of the biggest jokes in the human race.

I love the first 5 seasons of Supernatural, but when I tried the anime something just felt missing. I just couldn't get into it the same way I could with the live action show.

When a One Piece fan talks about OP it reminds me of how I used to talk about Naruto. So I'm not scared of them because I can understand their point of view.

I'm scared of Shana fans. I spent $40 to buy the first season on Blu ray and still don't see the appeal of the show despite my best efforts. But the thing is I really do want to enjoy the show so I can justify that purchase.

Yeah, I'd agree that the majority of One Piece fans can't take criticism. That's why I said it has one of the worst fanbases.

Do I really have to quote your comments on the latest One Piece chapter discussion thread (and, specifically, your answer to SwordsmanDin)? It seems that, regardless of there being bashing from fans or not, you are actively looking for it.

Anime is too damn expensive to spend money on it if you don't already know you like the series. Imagine spending $110 on something like Nichijou, only to find out you hate the show?
