Synopsis

Upon hearing news that islands in East Blue are being destroyed, Monkey D. Luffy and his crew go to investigate. On their way, however, an outlandish pirate ship appears out of the sky, helmed by the infamous pirate Shiki "the Golden Lion"—a man who ate the Float-Float Fruit and the first ever prisoner to escape from Impel Down. In his quest to defeat the World Government, Shiki kidnaps Nami to be his own navigator and sends the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates to his floating islands as hostages, leaving her in a dilemma. Separated in a land under Shiki's absolute control, Luffy and his crew must survive the mystifying terrain in order to bring back their navigator and friend.

This feels like the start of the new standard for a lot of anime movies. Good setup, good inclusion of the main cast, a good villain, and a big fight to cap it all off. Animation is solid, and you can notice the extra movie budget being used in some of the fights. Even if this is filler, it's worth the watch for some of the outfits the cast gets in this; absolutely dripping.

The plot was alright, handling the usual blueprint and featuring some decent side characters for the movie. Bringing in a villain unused in the original canon was nice and was a good ...

Mixed Feelings

This review contains slight spoilers for this movie.

As I'm not very used to writing reviews this will definitely not be particularly well written, however I really wanted to share my thoughts.

I did not like this movie, but i'll still start of with the positives:
The animation is quite good (Especially for one piece) it isn't anything special in terms of anime movie standards but compared to the abysmal animation the anime has it comes off as incredible.
I really liked the designs of everything, the floating islands and animals especially. I also liked the designs of Shiki, his two henchmen and the feathered villagers. all the NEW ...

Among the pool of contemporary manga, One Piece is a series that demonstrates without rival an insurmountable level of worldbuilding and creativity within the medium. This rich universe and One Piece’s undefeated ability to churn up slews of profits via merchandise and manga sales, leads One Piece to lend it’s likeness not only to a subpar anime adaptation but various disjointed animated film outings. One Piece: Strong World can be remembered simply as another strikeout, despite Oda Eiichiro’s coaching behind the scenes.

Even at its most criticized arcs, the writing of Oda Eiichiro in One Piece never truly missteps. There is a level of detail in ... every single arc where elements introduced or shown early on will all come to blossom fully in the finale of said arc or even further along in the series. This attention to detail is not present in Strong World. Rather, the writing is so lackluster that it can be presumed that Oda did not produce any sort of screenplay for this film, but rather drafted out a film concept and initial draft, that was then entirely adapted by the film’s other credited writer: Uesaka Hirohiko (the usual One Piece anime story series composition and filler script writer from 2004-2016). As with the majority of One Piece films up to this point, the viewer finds themselves confronted with the usual suspects of half assed writing. Cheap flashbacks to the main storyline that create inorganic tension, dull gags, failure to utilize the abilities of the Strawhats in meaningful ways, only a single memorable original antagonist, all layered together in a symphony of predictability. Perhaps these gripes could be overlooked if this film was backed by gorgeous animation, and yet save for specific moments of fast paced action, Strong World is swimming in mediocre animation.

Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island was the film that showcased the potential of One Piece when stylized in a different artstyle. This is almost certainly due to Kato Hiroshi (The End of Evangelion, Interstella 5555) involvement as art director. Unfortunately for subsequent films, Baron Omatsuri set a precedent high enough that it becomes almost painfully obvious how much the animation in Strong World ends up as a poor simulation of Oda’s incredible artstyle, rather than spreading its wings into its own world. For something with the budget of a full length film, it’s almost awkward how many shots there are that seem so mechanical and ‘non animated.’ Even when fanservice rears its polarizing head, Strong World’s attempts at sneaking ass or cleavage into shots feel completely stilted and lifeless compared to Oda’s natural ability to depict the titillating albeit unrealistic bodies of his female characters. The truest praise that can be sung for One Piece: Strong World is that there are indeed tight moments of fast paced animation, the character designs for this film are magnificent (Robin’s look is a 10), and there are a few very funny shots of animations sprinkled throughout. Unfortunately, even hippie Brook smoking a joint could not save this movie.

So once again we come up short. Strong World remains another example that whether through adaptation of the manga’s story or through original story, it’s safe to assume that for the time being there aren’t currently writers or directors with both the interest or the chops to bring One Piece to life through animation. You can skip the most of the movies. Read the manga.
