Of course, the story is pretty basic fare. Set some time after the Arlong Arc, The Merry Going, along with Nami, have been stolen, and the remnants of the Straw Hat Pirates, garbed only in wedding gear, are off to rescue them. While this seems hilarious on paper (and it is), they don't really continue the wedding clothes gag for ages.
My major issue with the story is how much they make the Straw Hat Pirates (sans Luffy) seem weak when they don't have their equipment; I mean, it makes sense, but I think that considering the power levels of at least Sanji and Zoro, they'd be able to manage at least somewhat without their equipment!
The art and animation is pretty standard One Piece fare, the animation having a bump due to the movie setting; I've said it before and I'll say it again. I love One Piece's art, and it's character design. They are freaking gorgeous. Along with this, the characters aren't really any different, so I'm perfectly content to see Sanji fawn over women any day.
All in all, the second One Piece movie may not be a masterpiece by any stretch of the word, but it's a fun extended romp in the One Piece universe and sans a few story problem, it's simply just a huge ton of fun.
