I have watched some great mind fucking shows like Eva and Serial experiments lain, but nothing comes close to this "kid" anime. I've watched over 1000 episodes and read 1000+ chapters, i still can't understand what Oda is trying to achieve. When I started watching OP 9 years ago, it was just a stupid battle shonen about pirates searching for treasure. But now, we have time travel, giant mecha robots, multi-dimensional bullshit, gods and goddesses, and the world of OP isn't even the real world.

Is One Piece an elitist anime?

Yea, One Piece is quite good lets hope oda keeps up his shit until the end, I thought the same about the anime its good solid 4/10 maybe, most likely a 2/10 but thats good for me believe me! hope the best for Oda and the story!
I am a COMPLETIONIST. Aiming to finish AS MANY ANIME as possible before DEATH, Despite them being SATISFACTORY or if they are BORING.

I WATCH THE LOWEST SCORED/RATED/RANKED ANIMES ON MAL (OR you can CALL THEM The WORST animes in the WORLD - No Joke Like Seriously)

No anime has actually satisfied my anime taste, That I can call a MasterPiece (10/10), still searching... hopefully one day I will find that show and obsess over it till I die.
RULE NO.4 I MUST WATCH ALL CONTENT FOR THE SERIES I HAVE FINISHED, NOW THIS ONE IS QUITE EXHILARATING.

Definitely not. There's TONS AND TONS AND TONS of non-anime fans that watch one piece rather than actual otakus that genuinely seek out and watch lots of anime.
BEASTARS Season 3 will be the best anime ever :)

I do not think OP is a elitist anime. Many casual anime fans like OP which is perfectly OK. It has really poor pacing that definitely keeps it out of the top anime for me. Pre time skip content is excellent though.

One Piece is the type of anime that appeals to both casual and elitist tourists. Death Note used to be this way too, but elitists decided to hate it recently for some reason. Elitists think that they are better than everyone else, and despise anything fun. Elitists also love anything with a "political message", and no matter what side it is actually trying to appeal to, elitists will claim that it is arguing for their side.

No one piece is literally one of the most populist anime that exists
Sometimes you just want to hear anime girls squeak and squeal

What oda is trying to achieve? To tell a fun story, what else?

Probably the opposite of elitist, I guess.

What I'm getting is that the requirement for something to be elitist is to put as much weird shit as possible in it. So does that make Darling in the Franxx elitist?

How could one of the most widely known anime worldwide possibly be elitist?

i saw couple of netflix episode of one piece, i would say watch the live shows and then continue watching anime from where the shows left off because old anime quality might be too hard to swallow for new fans.

I'm on the "first half" of wano arc, they be dragging the shows like they're preparing one piece for our grandchildren to watch. I would argue that the filler gets worse as the show goes on. one "arc character" that's memorable for me so it's a bit of a tough ride but it's almost like they knew fans are gonna watch it all anyway cause of the incoming epic fight anyway.

on topic, i would say any general target audience anime like literally battle shounen as described by many is not an elitist because it's not hard to watch this. just get a rope and a bag of chips for your target.

I dont think art is really made to appeal to "elitists", so no.

No, I think not. It is a very long anime, however, and asks for an incredible investment of your time at some rough estimate of 425+ hours as of now. I personally have no interest in anything belonging to the Refuses to Die club; Dragon Ball, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Detective Conan/Case Closed--if it is on the air for more than a hundred hours then it has almost certainly overstayed its welcome.
