Omatsuri Danshaku to Himitsu no Shima (Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island) is the sixth One Piece movie and differs in many aspects to the series in terms of animation, sound and character. I have to say now – if you like One Piece for it’s fighting – look elsewhere, this film is all about adding depth to the emotional bonds of the crew, which is picked upon during major arcs in the series, and how important nakama are to everyone.

Story.
Whilst sailing the Grand Line the Mugiwara pirates come upon a message in a bottle, advertising Omatsuri Island (Festival Island), a pirate paradise. But read more

Please read further at your own risk since this review contains SPOILERS.
Also. my memory’s a bit hazy since watched this movie a little over 2 weeks ago, so please correct me if I’m mistaken in any part.

At the time of writing this review, I have not watched the top 2 rated One Piece Movies (One Piece Strong World and Film Z). Hence I’ll claim this movie to be my favorite movie amongst the One Piece movies so far because others have their eyes on adventure as the main theme, which for me is average. When I first saw the cover of this movie on MAL, I was sure that it would be really crappy. I was also surprised to see how high this movie is rated compared to other OP Movies. But as the mainstream saying goes, “Don’t judge a book by its cover”.

One Piece has always been known for its adventurous world, light hearted comedy (which sometimes isn’t funny) and its focus on friendship between the crewmates. This movie takes it one step further in terms of friendship between the crew. It does have a few plot-holes though.

Story: 8/10
To begin with, the movie starts out pretty average as you have the Straw Hats sailing the sea and finding a mysterious island. On the island they meet the island inhabitants and are put through a series of games to determine if they get to stay on the island. That’s all I can describe about the introduction.
Midway, chopper separates from the crew as he isn’t participating in the games. He meets a father and his daughters who tell him that Baron’s (King-ish person of the island) main goal is to separate and destroy the friendship among pirate crews. Baron spies on them and shoots Chopper with a tranquilizer which causes him to lose consciousness.
Meanwhile Zoro + Sanji and Nami + Ussop compete against Baron’s friends in the games. If you watch One Piece, you know that Zoro and Sanji never get along. Nami and Ussop also get tricked by the competitors when they set up Ussop so that Nami thinks that he betrayed her.
This movie is the outlier amongst other One Piece movies as the story’s core focus isn’t adventure this time around. Instead, this story touches a deeper topic, which is the bonds between the Straw Hat Crew. From my point of view, I felt like the story was very dark and has a sense of true mystery in it.

Art: 8/10
The movie begins with below average animation and deformed characters in some frames (almost like the animation in OP Chopper Special, but tad bit better). The character outlines are very thin, and the colors used are a little darker. It appeals as a comedic movie in a sense actually. But as it progresses, you’ll start to understand why they used this kind of animation. One of the last scenes especially was very well done, where the flower on Baron’s shoulder transforms into this gruesome thing.

Sound: 7/10
No comments about the music since I can’t seem to recall it.

Character: 9/10
The focus on characters was intense in this one. It also tells you about Nami’s nature, because she refuses to let Ussop talk and explain himself (that he was set up by Baron). Ussop inturn also gets upset with her and stops talking to her. Zoro and Sanji, fiesty as always against each other. These four, thinking about each other’s betrayal, also get aggressive with Luffy when he tries to council and talk to them. Robin and Chopper were solo and got abducted, so nothing to elaborate on about them.

Enjoyment: 9/10
Overall: 8/10
In the end, you get a great fight, Luffy vs Baron. The fighting sequence is very well done and is really immersive.
I absolutely loved the nature of this movie. It’s quite dark-themed, mysterious and focuses on a sensitive topic. I’d recommend this movie to OP fans looking for something a little different from the other OP movies. read more

Hungry for some One Piece with a little twist? Look no further, because here it is.

On one hand I quite liked the story. The Strawhats, as always, are out on an adventure. It is wacky, funny with some slapstick and the good old jokes.
On the other hand the story is different from the usual One Piece we know, this is both good and bad as the story becomes interesting, but I will try to write them in a list.

Good points:
- You do not know what exactly to expect to happen, so the plot twist is more satisfying
- The usual deal about a bad guy who needs to be beaten is not all this story is about
- The Straw Hats are seen in a desperate situation which test their relationship to one another
- the plot twist also makes the movie seem like another movie altogether. The tone, so to say, change drastically and magnificently.

Bad points:
- Plot holes. In the end this alternative story is indeed refreshing, but it does leave some things unexplained.
- After the first initial start of the movie I found the pace to be slow for a while. However I believe it is because of the mystery presented in the movie and the viewer is left question what direction the movie is going into
- The internal struggle which the Straw Hats goes through is not resolved. It simply disappears, which I find to be a huge letdown and it also reflect my Character score

The art is wholly different from the standard One Piece art, but this is not necessarily bad, I just find it to be bad in this case. Both the background and the characters, especially the expression on the crews faces is different.
Much of the story has buildings in its background, and those are amazing to look at. The things is though, that they are too different from the characters design, it just does not mix well together, at times it looks as if the characters has been plastered on.
The expressions and characters designs seen one the crew is refreshing. The expressions seem more cartoonish to me, a big plus.

The music used is a mix of the standard from the series and and some original mixed together, they mix okay together. The voice actors also do a pretty good job. In short I found the sound to be the most satisfying in the movie.

The characters could have shined in this movie, but ultimately failed to do so. The movie put the Straw Hats up against each other, but fail to do it trustworthily, as they act out of character and the conflict is never resolved, it simply disappears.

All in all this movie has it shortcomings, but it does not fully take my joy from watching this movie. It was pleasing to see a different story, even if it did not fully do its job. read more

At first when I saw this I was suprised, mainly because the art style was so different, it was anyhting but original one piece style, it was really different, the animators mixed in CG and 2d together into this movie, and I felt they did a brilliant job,.

The story and the setting and even the personality of the characters really help to set in the art style. and it really does help to show how the characters reactions and feelings begin to shift in the story.

The story was weird at first, but it almost immediately begins to make sense.

the action in this movie was decent read more
