One Piece Film: Strong World

One Piece: Strong World is, indeed, a great movie. If you like the anime, you should watch this. You'll probably love it. Now, about my ratings:

Story (9): The story is great. I suppose they couldn't do more in just one movie. The Strong World: Episode 0 OVA helped buying a lot of time. Like in any One Piece arc, the story moves fastly, no matter what has been shown before.

Art (9): Once you watch One Piece (anime) and see how the art isn't that good in many parts of the series, you'll notice that this movie contains a great art. Like, Franky had a ... banana on his hair. What the hell is that? Brooke was smoking. Well, I liked it and all, but the clothes were strange, and I have to admit it. Anyway. Great art and this is it.


Sound(9): The sound is great, but it has nothing "unexpected". New soundtrack, but once it's a movie, it had to be like this. The voices were great (duh) like on the anime.


Character(10): Luffy's crew is so original that I can't give it less than 10. Their personalities, the clothes they were wearing (strange, but original)... Shiki was, as well, an outstanding character. I have nothing bad to add about the characters.


Enjoymen(9)t: If you like One Piece and you aren't expecting a lot of this movie just because Oda wrote this, then you'll love this movie and even give it a 10. The key is: Don't overrate it.

Overall(9): Well, many may not agree with me and rate this movie with a 10. But in a general analysis, 9 is a great note for this movie. All of the terms were combined and this is what we got: 9. The absence of logic in some parts (once I may not write spoilers, I'm not telling which parts these are), besides One Piece lacks logic on the anime itself many times, makes me feel like if this movie deserves a 9.

Honestly, I like keeping my reviews short since most people just skim through these things (like myself) and have pretty short attention spans, but just this once I'd like to make it somewhat longer.

Strongworld. This One Piece movie has a fitting name. It takes place in an island where only the strong survive, literally. Movie # 10, I enjoyed every bit of it since I knew it would be good. Why? Eiichiro Oda had a hand in its making. Why? To celebrate the 10 year anniversary of One Piece silly.

Anyways... where should I start...

Story: (10)
The story is refreshing and creative. Assuming ... the person who watches this is up the latter episodes (400+) sooner or later you'll hear about an infamous pirate named Shiki. I believe he first makes his appearance on episode 425 so be sure to check that out or rewatch it. Long story short, Luffy eventually crosses paths with him and trouble abrupts.

Art: (10)
One word: Incredible. I was in awe the entire time I was watching the movie, it was just absolutely ridiculous. One piece has evolved and continues to ever year.

Characters: (10)
I'll start and end with the ladies. Nami, the fashion queen, had some pretty outrageous clothing in this movie. All of them had one thing in common: Sexy. Robin was also incredibly cute. Her main outfit in the movie consisted of wearing glasses with a long, green and white striped shirt. These were the only ones that really stood out to me. Overall, the change in attire for the cast was refreshing.

The characters you should look forward to in this movie are: Sanji, Luffy, and possibly Brook. Sanji and Brook had a multitude of funny moments. They deliver the brunt of the comedy. As always, Luffy was pretty epic. In just this one movie, he literally gained 2000 cool points from me. Basically, he's accumulated over 9000 through the course of the series.

Overall, BEST ONE PIECE MOVIE EVER, PERIOD.

When the next OP moviie was announced I had mixed opinions. The movies have always been enjoyable and recently have been going back to remaking some of the classic arcs with a bit of new goodness. However when I learned the original creator Eiichiro Oda would be heading the project, I squealed like a school girl. So, after waiting about 8 months the movie has finally been subbed and I watched it today. Does Oda's canon movie triumpth over the original and remade story lines of the other movies? Let's tackle this movie.

Plot: Surprisingly the plot is the toughest thing to talk about IMO. The ... plot isn't bad, oh hell no it's great. It's just a bit of an old tune from an Oda plot line. As other people have stated, the plotline works a lot like the Arlong arc. Actually... you might as well say IT IS the Arlong arc. Nami gets kidnapped by crazed villian (Shiki in our case), Luffy and crew go to save her. Shiki tries to make Nami his navigator and plans to control the entire ocean starting with the East Blue. Luffy and crew have to rescue her and protect their homeland by beating Shiki and saving everything. Yadda yadda yadda. Point is, it's a new location with new characters, but it has the general idea the Arlong arc brought up, but on a higher scale. I enjoyed the arc so I really had no problems.

Art: Damn. I can't say anything more than that. The characters, the islands, even just looking at all the stuff in the scenery is just amazing. Fluent animations mixed in with some of those wacky expressions that OP fans have grown to love. One of my favorite works of art in the movie has to be near the end, with the snow falling in a night sky while all the battles are going on. Also just to add in, the character costumes look cool as hell. I mainly love Chopper's. I thought he couldn't get any cuter but I guess I was wrong.

Sound: All the Seiyuu's work their roles perfectly. One Piece has lots and lots of communications between the crew mates. Which really means that you get to hear perfect chemistry between the characters voices. The new characters voices are also very good. Shiki and Indigo's conversations are just hilarious, and it just reminds you how good classic comedy duo's can be, especially with each of their reactions. The seiyuu's did a great job. For the music I can also say, it was great. You get your mix of peaceful melodies, crazy fast paced music, and of course, roaring battle music. Every piece of sound works in it's place, and just adds more on to the scenes.

Character: Oda never fails when it comes to characters. The Strawhats are all here and enjoyable as ever. You get your Zoro and Sanji bickering, Brook's bone jokes, and of course Luffy's goofy laugh and enjoyable personality. When it came to the action too, same thing. The characters in battle resembled how they were in the series, the same feeling for fights and just the same atmosphere. Though one thing I did find a bit annoying was Nami played the damsel in distress role. Which she can really kick ass, so it's a bit of a shame to see her not really doing much fighting, but her scenes with Shiki work out great.

Speaking of Shiki he's also a very enjoyable character. He has the quirks of many OP villians, and his devil fruit power is very cool. I also like how they develop him first as a good guy, but later turns out to be a real asshole. Adds on to his deceitful character. His crew is also very enjoyable. Despite that only two members really shined, Indigo and the gorilla. Indigo was a comical relief and did a great job of it with his comedy lines with the others. The gorilla on the other hand, didn't really do that much. He was just kind of there with the intent of "If I'm here than maybe someone can use their signature moves on me." Least what it looked like to me.

Enjoyment: As a OP fan, I loved the living hell out of this movie. I always love seeing the Strawhats on the big screen ( Or just HDTV screen in my taste) and watching them go at it in a crazy movie like this. You have enjoyable new characters, crazy animals (Oda really knows how to combine random things with animals), beautiful artwork, and a fantastic world that the movie takes place in. It's got your comedy, drama, and of course, action as all OP fans would expect. Also, Luffy does a seriously badass move at the end of it, I was just in awe as it happened like "Oda, you've done it again."

Overall: As the description says it does take place later on in the series. But honestly, even if I never saw One Piece before I would love this movie. It's enjoyable for everyone but the fans will go to town with this movie. It just shows, when you put the creator behind the wheel of the movie, this is how it goes. A fantastic movie, and it makes absolute sense why it was a box office smash in Japan.

I generally do not like Japanese anime movies based off long-running shonen anime series, because they are pretty much just long fillers. So finding out that the creator of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda, was the executive producer of the then upcoming One Piece film, One Piece: Strong World, got me interested in it. I still figured that it would be a filler movie, but I was wondering whether Oda's involvement in the movie would make it more enjoyable or not. I am pleased to say that it did.


(Story -- 5)
Though the story is pretty much your typical shonen anime movie story, it does have ... a bit more substance to it. This is due to the fact that Oda wrote the story, and that it is considered canon. Even so, I do still think that the movie could have had a much better and entertaining story. But it is fair to note that shonen anime movies are usually watched by fans to see their favorite anime characters in high quality animation and not necessarily to see the story.

(Art -- 10)
The art and animation did not leave anything to be desired. The animation was very smooth, and the art was colorful and fitting. Compared to the first season of One Piece (which practically had still images for most of the runtime), I felt like this one was on steroids. I also felt that they finally achieved the 'atmosphere' which the manga evokes. Everything on screen was really lively, especially Luffy and his devil fruit abilities. In addition, I like Oda's animal designs immensely.

(Sound -- 7)
The movie had a couple of new tunes in it, which I thought were good. The sound effects were practically the same ones used in the show; therefore, they were nothing new or amazing. A couple of times, the lip syncing seemed off to me.

(Character -- 9)
The characters are at their best in this film. In previous movies, the characters seemed rather repetitive and boring, and it felt like the movie makers just took the running gags from the manga and placed them into the films. One Piece: Strong World made the characters surprisingly humorous and life-like -- even the villains made me chuckle now and then with their humor that definitely belonged to Oda. I feel that he added a breath of fresh air to the dying movie versions of his characters. But even though I felt that most of the characters were done well, I did not enjoy the new, movie-exclusive characters Billy and Xiao. I felt that they were way to stereotypical for their own good and just plain bland. Xiao (a little girl who requires the help of the Straw Hat Pirates) made me laugh only once at a gag that seemed to parody child characters in previous One Piece films.

(Enjoyment -- 9)
A slightly more captivating story, a more noticeable soundtrack, and the exclusion of a couple of movie-only characters could have made me give One Piece: Strong World full marks. As such, Even though, I still very much enjoyed this film.

(Overall -- 8)
In my opinion, One Piece: Strong World is definitely the best One Piece film, and is overall a very decent shonen anime movie. Any fan of One Piece should watch it, even if they do not like the anime or previous movies.

Up to this point, all of the One Piece movies have either been a big hit or a big miss. Then comes movie 10, Strong World. The big thing about this movie is that it's the first One Piece movie that is actually written and produced by creator Eiichiro Oda himself. So after finally watching it, does the movie surpass all expectations? Well, I'm going to get to a little flack for this review because to be honest I don't believe this is the best of the One Piece movies, BUT that doesn't mean I find this movie bad. In fact, it's more of the ... opposite really.

So let me just get something out of way that I don't even need to go into detail about. The animation and sound are perfect. Just absolutely perfect. The One Piece score is what you expect from the franchise and the animation is on a movie budget, so things on the technical side, flawless.

Alright, so what's the story of Strong World. Well, first of all there are some things you must watch first before you watch this movie. For one thing, I would believe the only reason you are watching this movie in the first place is because you are a One Piece fan, but even if you are, you must've first watched episodes 426-429. It reminds me of Star Trek 2 in a way, that you actually don't need to see the first Star Trek movie but rather an episode from the series. There is also an OVA prequel titled Strong World Ep 0 which is worth a watch but is not entirely necessary.

In this movie, Luffy and the gang are drifting along as they normally do when they suddenly come across a floating island (not like Sky Island). They discover the reasoning behind this when they encounter the legendary pirate and user of the Float-Float Fruit Captain Shiki. Shiki then gains an interest in Nami's navigating skills and kidnaps her. Thus, in glorious traditional One Piece fashion, the Straw Hats go out of their way to save their navigator and stop the evil pirate lord Shiki.

The story of Strong World is where the film falls flats for me. It's not a bad story, but for One Piece, to me this film does not catch the emotion and power that I have seen in the franchise before it, not mention it's very cliche. I mean the power is there, but it's not as powerful. If I were to give an analogy, I would say that the story of Strong World is like eating your favorite meal. A meal that wherever you go, you enjoy it no matter how it's made. Sometimes that meal is prepared bad, sometimes that meal is prepared great, and sometimes that meal has a new spin on it providing an unforgettable experience. Where am I going with this? If One Piece is one of my favorite meals, then Strong World would lie in the place where my meal was prepared great enough to make me want to have it again.

Okay enough with the food analogies, what I am saying is, Strong World is a great movie and very welcomed addition to the One Piece franchise. It has the One Piece name to it and the One Piece characters we all know and love wearing suits and shooting guns...wait what? Okay so this is a nitpick, (Btw don't worry this is not a huge spoiler) but at the beginning of the third act the Strawhats crash a meeting, wearing suits, and start shooting with guns-a-blazing. I shouldn't be complaining as it is a badass scene plus Oda did write it in, but even for One Piece, this still bothers me because of the fact I would never EVER expect the Strawhats to make an entrance like this. Well, because for one thing, IT'S THE STRAWHATS IN SUITS WITH GUNS, but the beauty of all this is that being One Piece, I can let it slide.

Overall, I highly recommend One Piece Strong World. Is it my favorite of the One Piece movies? No, but it ranks second. To be honest, all the One Piece movies, aside from movie 7, are pretty good. My favorite among them is movie 6 because it did something that caught my interest. It took One Piece into a different direction while keeping what make the series so great intact making it a much more interesting to watch and kind of what I expected out of this movie. Strong World, however, does what the other movies needed which was do what the TV series does best. Provide us with great characters and their devotion to each other conveying stories so powerful that it sends chills down your spine and could even shed a tear. Unfortunately, I only feel a little bit of that power from the series in Strong World, but that little bit of power is great enough to make this film a must watch.

This is the 10th movie for One Piece. Oda (the creator of One Piece) himself contributed to this movie, and it turned out fairly well. It has a lot of cool action scenes, the artwork is fantastic, and it's plot isn't bad at all. As far as One Piece movies go, this is the best one. They even integrated it into the Manga series, and they had a filler arc in the anime that helped integrate it as well.

Though I give the series a 10 hands down, this isn't as good due to the time constraints of a movie. No story arc in One Piece ... is told in this little amount of time, so it feels very rushed compared to it's normal baseline for story arcs. Really what drives this movie is the "cool" factor. You get to see the amazing Straw Hat Crew dress up in new outfits and kick a little but. It's worth watching, but it's not up to normal One Piece standards. That last comment aside, it's still the best movie, and it is still pretty good.

If you haven't seen the One Piece series, then I wouldn't watch this yet. Like all movies based on anime series they skip the character development. It works in this movie because the characters have such strong and unique personalities that you get to know them very quickly, but this is a side story and the anime series is a flat out masterpiece.

That aside, it's worth watching, and it has high repeat value.

One Piece: Strong world is a glorious adventure! I really enjoyed it.

They balanced a lot of great stuff well here. The side character plot of the feathered village folk was nice, and given just the right amount of time without any long flashbacks of their hardships, but enough for us to care. Nami really shined, and Shiki was a very solid villain, plus Luffy and the crew all had their cool moments. Good humor, good drama. And beautifully animated!

And it was fun seeing the crew dressed all classy gangster style, and firing huge guns like in some of those Oda color pages, cool stuff.

Only a ... couple nitpicks, one being Robin seemed to get the least time to shine out of everyone, always wanted more of her on there. Also, I would've liked to see a longer more thorough glorious beatdown in the end, some of the fights were on the brief side.

All in all, very satisfying, awesome film. Easily the best One Piece movie.

Story - Strong World to me seemed to feel like it was just a retelling of Skypeia with a new setting and different villains. The whole concept is pretty similar. Although this movie is technically part of the overall OP story it feels very tacked on and contradictory to a few other parts of the plot (i.e. "no one ever escaped from Impel Down..... oh yeah Shiki did").

Art - The animation looks crisp, flowing, and makes it very fun to watch. The unique character outfits they used for this movie are IMO the best used so far in One Piece, which ... is a nice touch. The only thing I didn't care for was the character designs of the villains. Shiki looks kind of ridiculous with the two swords as prosthetic legs.

Sound - The music in Strong World is amazing, honestly to the point where it can feel like a music video or an AMV at times, especially in the beginning. The sound quality in general is a strength of this film on a totally different level than the show. Voice acting as usual is superb.

Character - It's One Piece, it would be hard for me not to give this one a 10 for obvious reasons. While I didn't care for the designs of the bad guys in this that much, I thought they were at least decent characters as well, although they do get annoying a couple times.

Enjoyment - I've already watched this a couple times and loved this movie. I think it would also be a good thing to show someone to get them into the show, it would contain a few spoilers but it shows off the characters and combat of the show very well. I feel it could be very enjoyable to people who have not seen much or any of the series.

Overall - If you're a fan of the show I highly recommend this flick. It's eye and ear candy at its finest.

[[ this is my first review and I am not fluent in english so ... be patient pls ;-; ]]

So, I watched this movie because after I said One Piece Film Z were awesome a friend of mine told me Strong World is the best One Piece Movie, and honestly I preferred the Z one, but that doesn't means Strong World is a bad movie, don't get me wrong, this movie is very good.


[Story] - 7

Oda's histories are always creative and full of adventures not difference with this one, but something I didn't like is the fact that nothing have an aprofundation, for example, we ... know Shiki is a legendary pirate that in some time in the past confronted Gol D. Roger and lost, that he escaped Impel Down and that he could destroy everything... and that is it, nothing else, what is not usual in One Piece, where we are accustomed with every character has a great and long past that is very well worked, but I will let more for character review. I gave 7 because the story is good, but the sudden events could be more worked.


[Art] - 9

One pieces art is pretty peculiar but Strong World is beautiful, the colors are strong and the animation is very fluid (why don't 10 then? because I am boring)


[Sound] - 7

All that we love in the series music.


[Character] - 7

As I said before, the characters presented in the movie don't have a great presentation, and it doesn't applies only to Shiki, it's even worse with the others, but counting the fact it's a movie and the time is pretty short, I will give a discount.


[Enjoyment] - 9

Something I like in this movie is that is like watch an entire one piece arc but in like one and a half hour.


[Overall] - 8

Story is satisfatory, art is great, sound is ok, characters are not well worked but the film is good.

This is the only One piece Movie that I have ever seen so far so I cannot really compare it to previous ones. After watching the anime my friend suggested that I watch this movie and all I can say is awesome and amazing.

Story: 10
Storyline pretty easy to understand. Bad guy declares destruction to the world. Good guy Luffy somehow gets involved especially when a nakama is involved. Luffy beats the bad guy up along with his crew while doing it really cool and awesome.

Art: 9
The animations are done really well for each character as well as the scenery for the whole movie.

Sound: ... 9
The sound effects are really good, feels like you are kind of there in my opinion as well as the explosions which I mean come on, One Piece gotta have explosions.

Character: 10
All I can say is gotta love the Straw hat crew. Luffy leading the crew, pure awesome. Bad guy also developed well.

Enjoyment: 10
Loved it, fighting is great as always and you are always wanting more, fighting for your nakama is why One Piece is awesome.

Overall I gave this movie a 10 as it has it all for a good all round One Piece Movie that is sure to deliver action, comedy, nakama power just like in the anime.

I absolutely loved whatching this movie! Luffy and the crew are separated have hit mulitiable flying islands filled with Beasts far overgrown. As they all try to meet up, they seem to have a lot of fun, or atleast Luffy does xD i wont spoil anything for you but you will enjoy watching This if you love the anime One piece. You should definitely watch this as the Art, Storyline, and sounds are all beautiful plus I can only add to the One piece storyline :)

Its Far Best One Piece Movie i have ever seen! I hope they'll make way more exciting One Piece movie in the upcoming years to come that will get me thrilled in watching more than Strong World :)

I saw this movie a long time ago. And I have to say that it is highly overrated.
This movie is like a "remake" of the Arc of nami with arlong . Because the story its the same with an old enemy of Roger the King Pirate. its the same "Nami comes back" bla bla, "you are my nakama", "i Kick the ass of an old legend".
the art and sound is not anything special.
is enjoyable but normal.
character development is bad with a villain who gives more laughter than fear

One Piece Movie 10: Strong World Review


Story (8/10) Very Good
More Specifically (8.50/10) Very Good+

The 10th One Piece Strong World Movie was finally the One Piece Movie I was waiting to see which is something within these One Piece movies worth calling a movie quality presentation. The Story for Strong World is very simple with a lot of adaptations and setups before the movie even coming out a prequel OVA, a manga adaptation by Oda and even some filler setup episodes within the One Piece anime during the Impel Down Arc. I think for a movie this accomplish what it set out to do.


Art and Animation ... (9/10) Great

Finally some eye candy in One Piece by Toei. One Piece Strong World I was told is one of the best things One Piece animated and I have to agree it does look really really nice. It barely reach movie quality yes but that's not taking anything away from it because this is Toei we are talking about. The animation and art style for this movie is great and I heard the only other film that look this good if not better is Film Z, I'll be the judge of that but for right now Strong World is the best thing One Piece animated in my opinion.


Sound (10/10) Masterpiece

Glad the movie got an English dub so I can focus on the nice visuals this movie brought to us. The jungle music played through out this movie and even during the outro fit this movie perfectly and all the theme music of the characters when they are doing their thing (Zoro theme and Sanji's theme to be exact) we're welcomed and only made their shining moments that much cooler to me.


Characters (10/10) Great

The Straw Hats were depicted perfectly in this movie and rightfully so since Oda created the script for this one. Everyone got their shine here, Shiki and his two main minions were entertaining every time they took the screen the clown and hit farting shoes made laugh everytime he walked and the pervery gorilla was quite funny as well. Shiki himself is a hyped up and strong villian and he proves that in their first battle against them not many villains could wipe the floor of majority of the Straw Hat crew with that much of an ease (whether they were fully ready or not). Other new characters like Billy the Duck were entertaining as well being a duck the discharges electricity reminded me of Pikachu and it fit well with the Rubberman Luffy that duck is such a good character I wanted him to be apart of the crew permanently.


Enjoyment (8/10) Very Good
More Specifically (8.75/10) Very Good+

My enjoyment for this movie was very good. It did help that it was in dub but even if it wasn't my view on the movie wouldn't have change that's just a plus. The entire movie was entertaining from beginning to enter and that's saying a lot because no One Piece movie so far has accomplished that.


Overall (9/10) Great
More Specifically (9.25/10) Great

Strong World lived up to the hype that was given to it. I can definitely slap my seal of approval on this one if anything. I knew Toei could adapt something great if they felt like it and this is proof.

I really enjoyed this one... but it does need to be mentioned that the enjoyment largely came from the spectacle of it all, rather than some of the elements that are usually of the most value to me...

This movie looked absolutely amazing. (I've gotten into this franchise really late, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that this was around the time it was getting majorly, mainstream-ishly popular. Because holy shit, hello, animation budget, where have you been?) And it sounded fantastic. (Love the fact that the first movie to come out since Brook's inclusion in the crew also got this great soundtrack upgrade.)

But ... the story was a little weak. I'm not really a fan of the storylines that try to shove Nami into damsel in distress roles. (And even Robin had a moment where she had to be rescued here that I really wasn't feeling.) It's smoothed out a little by the fact that they never truly succeed. She would have to be entirely out of character to genuinely need to be rescued. Aside from a few scenarios where a much stronger opponent was guarding her literally every second of the day. But in most cases... She is plenty smart and competent and even getting strong enough to where she can escape on her own. And she does. My complaint isn't that she felt out of character here... It's more the overarching intention to try and force that role upon her in the first place.

Like I said, Strong World is a spectacle. It's actually kind of wildly out-of-character for a lot of them for the crew to burst into the villain's lair in suits and all wielding guns, all mafia-esque... But I can't deny that it sure was cool to look at. The crazy animal combinations and the amount of time spent on those fights felt like the animators were really taking an opportunity to flex their creativity and just have fun... and probably could have been skipped in lieu of capitalizing a bit more on the emotions of the original crew trying to save their islands back home. But they were also fun to watch at times.

By no means would I say this one was bad. The storytelling was just a little weak. I think the creators lost themselves a little in just how cool they could make it all look, rather than focusing on strengthening the story it revolved around.

My first One Piece film, Strong World was a pleasant ride with the Straw Hats rife with the usual components that are so endemic to Oda -- predictable, yet uplifting, story; immense creativity (in this case with all of the different monsters); great humor that's so natural; and, of course, his heartwarming take on the motif of nakama. Being a film, the animation is significantly better than the TV series, the soundtrack is new, and the character outfits are different. I've seen plenty of anime and Oda never fails to bring tears to my eyes with the strong bonds among Luffy's crew. More than anything, ... that's what's truly important, especially to Luffy.

That being said, having caught up with One Piece as it airs, the fights aren't the best, but that's obviously because Strong World takes place between Thriller Bark and Sabaody Archipelago so the Straw Hats still have much to go in terms of their combative techniques. And compared to the fights in Naruto: Shippuuden and Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works for example, those in Strong World aren't as realistic. If you're relatively new to the infiniverse of anime (having seen at least through Thriller Bark in One Piece of course), then the fights will be awesome. And even for me, there still are some epic moments.

And besides, the fights aren't as important as the nakama loyalty binding Nami and the rest of the Straw Hats as they fight to rescue her from Shiki.

I wouldn't say Strong World is essential viewing, unless you're a strong One Piece fan. But it was entertaining enough to finish.

RATINGS
Enjoyment -- 7
Resonance -- 9
Overall Quality -- 8

WHY I LIKED:
⬤ Floating tropical islands
⬤ Castle interior
⬤ Good pacing
⬤ Extraodinary outfits for the Strawhats
⬤ Good development for Nami
⬤ Animation quality, I liked Luffy's second and third gear designs alot. It gave me AOT vibes watching him.
⬤ Lufffy was serious most of the time and I liked it.

WHY I DISLIKED:
... ⬤ Nothing is special with story.
⬤ Exaggerated villain, to think he was rivalling pirate king..

SUMMARY:
This movie makes a fast start with a flashforward scene and soaks you in with Luffy's jungle fight, Nami fanservice and the little gag between bad guys. Pieces start to fall into place on par with the movie length.
The movie shows how graphic quality can give the story darker tones it needed. This movie ranks second on my one piece movie list coming after "One piece movie 4" them both share a monumental !!! [9/10] !!! (though I have watched only the first 10 movies yet..)


Story: 8/10
Art: 9/10
Sound: 8/10
Character: 8/10
Enjoyment: 9/10

Overall: 9/10

Oh boy was that movie amazing. It's been so long since i saw such a good movie.

{MAY CONTAIN SOME SPOILERS}



Story 8: The story was very simple. After gaining their new member brook the straw hats stumble upon shiki the villain of our story that we learn from Sengoku and Garp that he had fought Gold D. Roger and lost 20 years ago as he was sent to jail. After being free from Prison Shiki uses his amazing powers to kidnap Nami from luffy and ... the crew. And that's the main goal of our protagonist to retrieve nami back. And the straw hats conclude this movie with a great final fight.



Art 9: I don't have a lot to say here. Only that the art designs were amazing such as the animation.


Sound 7: Now i kinda have to complain here. One piece has one of the best soundtracks in anime history take for example "overtaken" for action scenes or "mother ship" for dramatic scenes. But in the movie the soundtrack was limited and very mediocre they could have done better.




Character 7: The straw-hats in the movie were just like in the anime. Sadly in the movie there wasn't a lot of character development but everyone had their cool moments and i liked that. As for the villain, yea his devil fruit was amazing but he was a movie villain character and had to be beaten in a course of 2 hours so we never got to see the potential of Shiki.


Overall 8: All those combined made a very good one piece movie that i believe everyone would enjoy. It's not the best but it's sure worth a watch

Sensational Villain and Story
Another wonderful One Piece Movie, Strong World is worse than the other three movies (Z, Gold, Stampede) but it’s still amazing tho. It’s in the fourth place to my opinion.

Still it has special place for me maybe for everbody because it’s the last pre-time skip movie of One Piece.

As a story it’s really great, has some strange characters and lastly of course the villain.

Frankly I didn’t like how the producers represent the main villain because he looks like stronger than Luffy, actually he is. Anyways, There is no problem other than that. If you are a One Piece fan, of course you ... would be happy at the end of the movie if you’re not I still think that you’ll enjoy.

Thank you for reading, I hope I could have helped you with this review.

Overall, one of the better one piece movies. The villains were a little bit annoying, but the world-building was the best I've seen so far of the one piece movies, but what made this one stand out to me was the AESTHETIC. The OUTFITS were so cool. They finally decided to give the straw hat crew GUNS and it was BADASS. The best part of this movie was the opening music and character introduction at the beginning of the movie. The music DID NOT need to go that hard. A big downside of the plot was that it revolved around a damsel-in-distress type of situation, ... which usually isn't great, but it essentially mirrored one of the canon arcs from the show (I won't say which). Basically what I'm saying is this: if you are looking for something to watch for the plot, this ain't it. But, if you are looking for something to watch "for the plot", then this is perfect for you,
