Candor said: Haters gonna hate.Unless you want to get stuck in a bunch of average to bad arcs after some pretty good arcs, it's too early. Wait a couple of years and start it for better enjoyment. |
| it's good actually to start late, because then you always got something to read and dont have to wait so many weeks for the story to finally move forward this is true for any manga, in fact i prefer mangas that are finished, but if a manga is good enough and still going then why the hell not? |

| thanks to all... is it funny i always thought that it was childish... and a main character that has a body like... i dont know a rubber band? i was like WTF?... but now i really wanna get into the story :D |

It looks childish, so it appeals to kid (I watched it with my 9 yo lil bro, though). Despite the fact that actually it has mature and complex issue, anyone, no matter how old, can enjoy it. Now hurry read it! |
buuhhu said: thanks to all... is it funny i always thought that it was childish... and a main character that has a body like... i dont know a rubber band? i was like WTF?... but now i really wanna get into the story :D The artwork does seem childish, but One Piece deals with alot of realistic and complex issues, like corrupted governaments and the meaning of justice. Thats why I love One Piece so much. |
IntroverTurtle said: It's never too late. ^This. One Piece is something anyone who claims to be a manga/anime enthusiast should at least attempt to read/watch. I actually envy you because now you get to experience 733+ chapters of awesome. I got into One Piece back when the show was on Impel Down. I've been a huge fan of it ever since. I don't think you'll find a better Shonen out there. |

MatijaxD said: ofc it's not to late, but you should read the manga it's much better then the anime Yeah... i will go with the manga... animes this long usually have fillers... is the same with one piece? |
buuhhu said: Almost every long anime has fillers, One Piece does too. But they are small arcs(it has less than most) and they're interesting.MatijaxD said: ofc it's not to late, but you should read the manga it's much better then the anime Yeah... i will go with the manga... animes this long usually have fillers... is the same with one piece? |

But then again, if you really don't like fillers you could just simply skip them. Here's the filler list I used, which should make that very easy: http://razielsdomain.forumotion.net/t10321-list-of-filler-episodes-for-one-piece |
| its never too late i started watching OP about the time it was on the time skip. well actually i first starting watching it earlier then that but i just couldn't get into it. i made it to the part with buggy the clown and said screw this shit. i honestly hated one piece. then later i was having trouble finding something i wanted to watch. so i started forcing myself to watch OP and im glad i did. went from forcing myself, to meh, to this isnt so bad, to this is actually pretty good, to this show is freaking awesome. it really grows on you ya know. then around the punk hazard arc i got bored waiting for each episode so i started reading the manga where the show left off. so its definitely worth it |
| If you give it a chance and continue to watch or read, ultimately you will be rewarded. Personally, I like long running series because I get sad when I finish something. |
| I wonder if there is anyone other than me who will suggest the OP to watch the Arlong Park, Alabasta arc, Water 7 and the little part before it, and probably even EL? Because They just have such amazing scenes that some people must watch animated. |

buuhhu said: it will, the creator has had an ending planned and confirmed the series had reached its halfway point a few years ago, still a long ways to go but its arguable that one piece is around 60% completeIntroverTurtle said: thanks for answering...It's never too late. but there are so MANY chapters... what about if this manga never end??? :O it will end |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Watch it! So you can hear the openings and voice actors. It took me half a year to catch up. And there's no hurry, you don't need to watch 10 episodes everyday. |

I've put off watching/reading OP for years a couple of weeks ago started reading and I just couldn't put it down. I'm now up to date on the manga... and Its good damn good, hell I regret not reading it earlier I was really missing out. No, you are absolutely wrong! Believe me, its better to have enjoyed everything now without having to wait for a chapter/ an episode a whole week ... I caught up with the anime when they reached the shore of Punk Hazard, then read the manga from then on and caught up too! But then I couldn't help it and read the manga from the beginning and even rewatched the anime *.* Of course the current arcs are freaking awesome but the earlier ones when everyone joined are better off watched with no breaks so you would understand every detail about every single character and the meaning behind all of Luffy's adventure :) |

Since then I've rewatched AND reread the series AT LEAST once each year. Great freaking series. Breaks are just AGONIZING, but at least Oda gives us awesome material to make up for it most of the time :P |
| Read it. It's amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| don't. |
| anime with cute girls is my thing. |
| read and watch it, its never to late to catch up, the only thing you'll regret is that you didn't read/watch it sooner everyone is currently waiting for the new chapter that should be coming out in a few hours very exciting arc!!! p.s. i forgot to say that you should watch the movies and special as well they are good |

| You have like 10 years to read it so it can't be too late. I'd highly recommend you to read the manga over watching the anime though, but it sounds like you already want to do that. |

| A mere summary that actually misses and leaves out a lot of stuff, I'd add. The part of Skypiea in special, makes this AMV look like it was made by somebody who really, really despised that arc. |
| Never too late. Prepare yourself for the long road ahead, because it's going to go on for another (i'm guessing)1000 episodes. Good to get caught up now rather than in a couple years. |
| It's not too late. It would only take you a few weeks for you to catch up like how I read all the 500+ chapters of bleach in 2 weeks. |
| It's never too late for One Piece. |
| well, it's bot too late but i think you won't enjoy it like some one who was reading it from a long time ago.. i think everyone know what i mean when an important character dies in a series you were watching for a long period of time, you feel so influenced by his/her death (because sentiments were pilled up for a certain character "the character you like") but when you watch/read a series for a short period of time you don't feel anything when a character die, because you didn't take the time to feel what this character felt ... the same goes for anything whether it was a manga, an anime, a normal tv series..etc it's not too late, but you better start watching or reading one piece from this very moment (btw, i recommend you to watch the anime instead of reading the manga) you can start reading the manga when you finish the anime because the pace is so lame and slow :( |

| Not too late... Even if it was 1000 chapters you could still catch up to it eventually (especially through manga format, most people read faster as opposed to watching anime episodes that you can't really make them go faster than their actual run-time, although you can skip fillers). You just have to be patient really. Think of it this way. If you only read 5 chapters a day, it will take you 150 days which is a good bit less than 1/2 a year (183 days). 1/2 a year might sound like a long time, but in context of how long the One Piece story has been going on (17 years about) that's nothing. Now 5 chapters a day is a slowish pace, as it comes down to less than 100 pages of manga per day, manga is nothing like reading a book and usually reads much faster unless you are just sitting their staring at artwork all day long. I read One Piece chapters individually in like 8 - 10 minutes (30 seconds for every page basically), so 5 chapters approximately is 50 minutes, or less than 1hr of time in your day. You'll have days where you have much more free time too inevitably. If your on vacation you could be reading 30-40 chapters a day if you spend 6-8 hrs reading One Piece on any given vacation day. 40 x 5 = 200, so you could techincally read 200 chapters (an ungodly amount of manga) in only 5 days worth of time if you are reading all day (and that doesn't even take into account you could read faster than this 10 min per chapter pace, or you might stay up really late and read more that way as well. If you have a shitton of patience, if you read 1 chapter a day for 3 years, you will have read 1095 chapters in total, which would likely be more than enough to catch you up with One Piece by that time hahaaa. As long as One Piece has been going on, doubtfull it'll end in only a few scant years time. |

| It's never too late, One Piece has 10 more years. Good luck, I caught up to the anime in a few weeks and read the manga afterwards.  |
