Nope. Check the reviews and if you still want to watch it, I suggest the manga, less of a time waste if you don't end up liking it.

How the hell should we know? At least go watch a couple of episodes and if you're still having doubts then, come back and tell us what you liked and what you didn't and then we will be able to help you.

Of course. Go for it. You don't need to get caught up either, just enjoy the ride.

...If you feel like it?
If you think you can sit through 700+ episodes, then do
The pace gets seriously bad later on, but to me it depends on the arc. I just think that watching shounen is a bit more exciting than reading it

Well i don't know about the anime but i think you can enjoy the manga. The story and character is pretty interesting in manga. And had less time to catch up too if you fast reader.

I don't know why people look at One Piece and think how long it'll take to catch up, just enjoy the ride and feel bad when you can't marathon it anymore.

Yes, definitely worth watching. If the anime gets too slow for you read the manga.

Yes! Even though the anime has been lacking in the last few years, the manga is still a masterpiece

Watch at least until Episode 31, thats the point most people get addicted to OP and realize how awesome it is

And from that point it gets only better

Wanna know when One Piece gets good?

Right from the very first panel of the Manga and the very first shot of the Anime. Watch through 53 episodes and see why it's considered the very best!

One Piece is GOAT, so I would say yes. However you have to be patient with it since it starts kinda slow but the payoff is just insane.
I would suggest to watch the anime till the Timeskip and start the manga after that. Skip the few filler there are. If you end up liking it which I'm pretty sure you will, you can reread it afterwards.

No. It's not worth watching in the long run IMO. Watch Naruto instead.

Yes, it's definitely worth watching... at least until the timeskip. Though reluctantly, I must admit, that OP got worse after the timeskip in many aspects :/
I wish I could just forget I've seen ale those 700+ episodes so far and could watch it again.

I love One Piece, but I would go for the manga over the anime. The anime is pretty good early on, but the pacing gets really terrible later on. I can't remember when exactly this really starts to happen (I think it was around the time skip), but seriously, the episodes just fucking drag on. Most of the filler arcs are pretty garbage as well (though if your just starting you can just skip them). Basically early One Piece isn't to bad, but later on it gets worse. I'd just go for the manga, though if really prefer to watch it just watch till the time skip and pass on filler arcs (though I actually like the G-8 arc, so maybe give that one a watch), then I would seriously just start reading from there. Obliviously it's a long read and it'll take a while to catch up, but I personally believe it's worth it.

Because it's better than One Piece (especially the battles), and is worth watching in the long run if you skip fillers. Who cares if One Piece is rated higher? IMO, One Piece goes downhill eventually, but Naruto just keeps getting better and better.

'IMO' indeed....

Naruto goes from great to decent to outright ridiculously stupid by the end of the war arc. I don't know how anyone but the most ardent Naruto fan could possibly defend it. One Piece certainly isn't without it's faults but it's yet to really disappoint me on the same level as Naruto did during the 4th ninja war.

Oooh! I didn't know you think the war arc is one of the best. That would make you the only other person I've seen (you-know-who.)

Anyway, Naruto is good, but One Piece is better, especially the plot, characters, emotions, comedy and world.

Imo One Piece is better than Naruto in the long run since One Piece build up a lot of little thing into some massive event eventually, sure there are times when One Piece become slow and goes downhill, but at least it's not the end, there's still hope for things to get better.
Naruto sure is one-upped One Piece in terms of animation but in the end animation is just a small part of what makes anime good, it won't enough to make me keep watching those fillers and flashback inside flashback, not to mention I hate the War Arc(read:Naruto goes free fall in the end).

And to answers OP question.

Totally worth a shot. It IS a long running show, so give it about 35 episodes or so to decide it you want to continue. It's only fair bc it IS 700+ episodes long.

If you find the show kinda slow but still interesting, just read the manga instead. It's a lot faster paced.

I only mentioned Naruto because TC hadn't watched it yet. Otherwise, I wouldn't have mentioned it.

Okay, but the topic was about whether or not he should get into One Piece. Not if he should get into One Piece or Naruto. Naruto was never part of the discussion till you inserted it. Just saying.

Yes! It's Epic. Watch the anime up to the dressrosa arc then switch to manga. The anime becomes truly unbearable at that point.

Too bad you have fillers mixed into canon. If you're going to recommend Naruto tell him to read the manga. Don't know how anyone can defend the anime its being milked to death.
