One Piece: Kinkyuu Kikaku One Piece Kanzen Kouryakuhou

I might give this up a rating of 6/10, but that is hardly a subjective rating I'd say. Of course, the best way of experiencing One Piece will always be, episode one, or chapter one. Not other viable “better” shortcuts to be honest, however, for the fans that like to a refresher on the series every once in a while, recaps like these are always welcomed, no, almost sought in desperation.

As a recap, it is, well, meh, but the stories told are ways the finest. You would be expecting to see something new added as a thank you for watching topping, but the same content ... you watch in the first 5 episodes of the series is what you get, only condensed in 24 minutes, with the same old animation, voice acting, and a touch of extra narrating from the original cast members. And don't take this as me bashing One Piece's animation, because even when it first started, it was a special kind of SPECIAL.
