HELL YEAH *w*
Actually you know what? :o
One piece was one of the first anime i started to watch in japanese (subbed of course) since i'm too curious (you know that type that prefers watching/reading or knowing spoilers, anything avaible rather than wait XD), but back then
i'm talking about MANY years ago i still wasn't paying too much attention to voices..
Long time later i've watched basara and it had zoro's voice (which i recognized) BUT what made me scream was Nakai's performance as masamune
don't get me wrong, as zoro is great BUT as masamune he just has some extra BONUS of epicness skills *w* and it was right there, with masamune-sama that i learnt who really was Nakai and that i came to like him more than any other voice actor :D
After masamune, everytime i was hearing nakai everywhere i was just loving him. Now in OP with zoro, i'm always like this -> *w* when zoro talks. And his "Santoryuu" is almost as much cool as it was Masamune's engrish XD
And then little by little i came to pay attention to voices A LOT MORE, and i came addicted to many other seiyuus! Mamoru's performance in death the kidd or tamaki was just daaaaamn funny :D
Yes. i know OP has LOTS of episodes
and isn't even barely near to the end so i totally understand why many ppl hesitate before deciding to start this serie.
BUT on the other side i can tell you endless reasons to start it :D
- first of all it's not a case that OP has been rated as the top 1 shonen manga more sold. back then (i think it was 2 or 3 years ago) OP celebrated its XXX millions gained that did beat the record that dragon ball made at its epoch time before.
- one piece is my fave serie beacuse is original, it has humor and adventures, awesome badass charas (both males and females) and a story really well planned. oda (the author) cures his work in each detail, gives hints here and there and he'll always reply to the questions he previously made the fans make, nothing is left to the coincidence of facts :D
- op gives great importance to many good factors: friendship, family, proud, dreams, ambitions, work, adventures, humor. it has the power to make you laugh at very funny scenes, as well as to make you cry with another sad scenes ;w; everyone i know who has seen OP cried at least once, since it's impossible that you don't get touched by at least ONE of the main chara's pasts/lives/experiences and decisions.
- also another good reason to start is sooner than later is that now is barely past its half of the story.. :o
this means that is "easier" to recover 500 eps now than having to watch 1000 eps all at once later XD
- you won't regret to see it since is the best serie so far out there :D
- if you are not sure to start it since you might not like OP's chara design animation art of the first episodes (but i personally like those too *w*), let me tell you that the chara designer changed at the half of the episodes, making the charas look older and even cooler :o
- every friend which i've adviced to watch OP was happy to have actually seen it in the end *w* i have yet to meet someone of the friends i've recommended it to, that didn't like it.
- AND IT HAS NAKAI ♥ 8D
ok i'll stop this since it's becoming to be too long @_@ gomen.
Haha SC was great but the end ... ;w; even though during all the serie the author did nothing but tell us that those three will always meet again, i dont like open endings, i want that TO BE STATED D:
and i wanted mugen x fuu declared ;w;
Hum, yeah I KNOW NAKAI IS VOICING HIJIKATA *W*
i've seen the movie and ovas XD and lololol, i think i've seen the scene u are meaning in a demotivation poster on zerochan, was just hilarious XDDD yeah, i should keep watching gintama
but for now was too random for me ;w; but yeah i do recognize is funny :D
(speaking of gintama, i've recently knew an
anime that reminds me SO MUCH of gintama. is just ALL random and DAMN funny XDDDD and one of the three main charas is voiced by gintoki!)
