| THE MOVIE WAS FIRE! But not as you think it was planned to be... I am not going to give you any kind of MAJOR SPOILERS, but this Movie could be better, and I think it should be seen by everyone else to understand it. Don't get me wrong, I saw all my favourite characters, and they crossed swords and words with each other, Especially Shanks. I DO NOT READ THE MANGA, I only watch the anime, so I had no Idea Who Uta is, and that this is a filler movie cause shanks doesn't have a daughter, they will basically announce it in the Main story as well. (Though the movie did a great job explaining how they both meet.) The song's were Absolutely amazing! (There were about 6 of them that Uta Sang) I would say, the ending felt a bit anti-climatic, so that's the only minus point in this movie I think... Or maybe they could have a bit slow down with what was happening, I couldn't process this amount of information in that HIGH PACED Movie... I gotta tell you, the TV Anime does a great job with the slow pacing, giving us time to react and to think about what's happening. 9/10 for me, this is a really good One Piece Movie! |
This is so funny and sad 🤣 |
Goobris said: Without giving it away directly, Oda mentioned that a very important piece of information about Shanks was revealed in this movie. Where there a big reveal that stands out to you, or was it kind of an “oh yeah I guess that’s kind of interesting” moment? Something about Shanks' haki being really powerful, Shanks' bounty when he left Foosha Village 12 years ago, his crewmates fighting style and a bit of details on their character. The subreddit has more details if you got curious |
| I wish I was in Japan right now 😭 Insane Shanks reveals that came long with the movie. You could tell that not everyone was into the musical side of this movie, which is shame because I really liked it for being something different for a change. Performances from various genres were a joy to watch on the big screen, Ado and the animators killed it. Red didn't have as many cameos as Stampede yet it was still heavy on the fanservice side. Plotwise I wasn't 100% sold on Tot Musica. Regardless of how much I tried to symphatize with Uta's misfortune, she was made to be as unlikeable as possible, it seemed. Like an emo teen who thinks killing herself is the salvation, with the difference that she was about to drag mad people with her. Or maybe it's hidden social commentary on the effect of idol culture on the stars. Be that as it may she atoned for her fatal mistakes and bore the consequences. Bittersweet conclusion. And boy, Shanks Haoshoku was something else. Tho, I'm glad that he wasn't portrayey as OP as the few viral clips suggested. The action segments, in particular the combi attacks with everyone vs Toto Musica were a visual feast. 8,5/10 for this emotional movie |

| Going to watch it officaly in a week or two in the cinema but watched some scenes on twitter and I must say, it's quite something to look forward to. |

| Dunno why they felt the need to spoil Gear 5. Granted most of the folks who will watch this movie are already caught up on the manga, but it still feels like a disservice towards the fans who only watch the anime. Also I heard this movie has gotten terrible ratings so far, which isn't surprising since the movie looked boring af in the trailers. It seems like Oda only came up with the concept of Uta and shoved Shanks into things to increase interest, but the plot didn't fare so well and people are upset. |

k4zeman said: i don't understand the people who give this movie 5/5 or 10/10, that was a bad movie, action was bad, story was bad, animation was not terrible per say but some scene were unclear and epileptic sometime, also some moments with cgi were really unnecessary. also like a lot said, yes, way too many songs and not well placed, songs were not that bad (then its all about taste, personally i only really liked one) but they broke the rhythm too often. I'm sorry if it wasn't up to your taste but the movie was amazing and touched a lot of people, I don't think it's healthy for you to get angry about people loving something that you didn't liked. Also I honestly thought the songs were amazingly well tied in to the progress of the story? they never interrupted the story once, they always happened to progress the story, be it to introduce the character of uta, her fruit, to illustrate fight scenes, or to give a conclusion to the arc. The movie was a musical and I always like that One Piece can try out all these genre. Gold is my favourite movie mostly because it's not focused on fights, but on building up the island and its story, while having great set pieces like the whole infiltration part of the movie. It was the only movie that really felt like a full arc to me, with even some fun side villains like Baccarat. Sakuta002766 said: Early_Morning said: Dunno why they felt the need to spoil Gear 5.

Honestly, it's a western internet thing that's happening right now. We built up a whole part of our society that thrives on negativity and ignore positivity, so it feels like no one likes anything nowadays. It's a bit depressing and I hope we'll get past that someday |

| I finished the movie and god, it was good. I am a big fan of Ado and literally EVERY song was 10/10. She was perfect for Uta. I would say this was the best one piece movie in terms of animation (that shanks and luffy attack was just soo nice). Even the scenes where the strawhats fought those song-made characters looked dope. Shanks x Katakuri was an interaction that I never expected too lmao And I forgot the name of it but I'm assuming those mushroom things Uta eats is what blackbeard does as well which keeps him sleepless. I loved uta as a character too and this was just a whole lot of fun to watch |
 |
| Just need to know if it's as good or better than Film Z because last couple movies weren't that. |
| About the movie, having read no synopsis or trailer, it's an excellent film! The animation is on top as is the music of the singer Ado which is EXCELLENT! Without forgetting the seiyū and the emotion that goes with it! What a treat! Now, a big rant around the film in France. During the preview, excesses during the preview which would be linked by a wave of harassment towards Ado, supposedly because there is "too much" music or worse because they don't have Didn't like the movie at all?! https://twitter.com/EritoWorld/status/1556502292827873280 https://twitter.com/botkzz/status/1556027776079171587 This is simply UNACCEPTABLE and I do not condone these acts at all! You may dislike, argue what not, etc... but leave Ado alone! After MAPPA's cyberbullying in the final season of Shingeki no Kyojin, the preview of Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and now One Piece Red, what's next?! To ban this kind of behavior! 🤮 |

| Thank you Toei animation for this Ado concert, as an Ado fan I appreciated it a lot. Now subjectivity aside, the movie is really not that bad as a One Piece spin-off story, it makes way more sense for this much people and important pirates to be there as Uta fans rather than for the treasure hunt of Stampede making the most incoherent alliances possible. This movie though is the most uncannon spin-off that could ever happen, it's obviously set after Whole Cake as a base because of Luffy getting called as the 5th Emperor but placing it to fit with Wano is almost impossible, you see a glimpse of the Gear 5 so = after Onigashima but you see Big Mom clearly alive and safe at TotLand so = before Wano or even further. This glimpse of Gear 5 isn't the only chronological fuck up because even if you ignore it and consider it as a small private reference for manga readers, Jinbe is with the crew officially which only happen when Onigashima begins. Anyway, this just cannot fit in the cannon even if you wanted to. As an anon pointed that out, this film, apart from being Toei and Oda shilling Ado as she deserves, is just there to get a bit of change in the standard one piece character archetypes. Uta is the first female antagonist being presented as fundamentely a good person and an ally before becoming a villain, she's also the first female villain (main villain mostly) in a One Piece film with strength that easily reviles even the strongest admirals or emperors, even if she seems unable to use Haki to counterbalanced her demon fruit, the single ability to put anyone in her song dimension if they just hear her sing makes her as an upgraded broken Sugar, because it's way much easier to be heard by even the strongest One Piece individuals than touching them, and she can mind control them afterwards as a bonus. As a standalone characters, she lacks some of the nuance of a character like Z or cannon One Piece villain and others, but she's still coherent with herself and her motivation all the way, and isn't forgiven that easily if Shanks wasn't there to save her in the end. My complaint about her would be that they took the easiest way to justify a villain actions when confronted by their mistakes, is that she just a full blown psycho, like a crazy entitled psycho and her insanity is what drove her to commit her actions, always extremely cheap especially coming to female antagonist but her good will and innocent view of the world makes it way more believable than most psycho, her powers as well being on par with emperors would really drive a broken girl to go-on with such plan. I have to salute Toei for, GOD BLESS, HAVING RESTRAINT ON THE CGI USE WHICH COMPLETELY DESTROYED STAMPEDE SERIOUSNESS, here the CGI is reserved for very short dancing sequences at the count of 2 or 3 maximum, which are, in all honesty, the cringiest thing ever, even as a gigantic vtuber fan myself, but are so short they barely take you out of the immersion compared to the cgi abonimation stampede has as a main antagonist for half the movie. Otherwise 2D dancing sequences are of surprisingly good quality with some intense fight choreography to comes with it. I'm glossing over the Mugiwara implication or the fights in general because they are basically what we've been eating since Gold up to Stampede, bombastic and flashy, badass for some characters, but without any narrative whatsoever, they all fight because they need, not because they want to or have to, most attacks being targetted towards grunts and nameless ennemies or a giant creature keeping them all from having a true role in the story other than make the plot push forwards. A true wasted potential though lies with one of my favorite strawhats, Soul King Brook, this entire movie being focus around music and Uta having been the musician of the redhair pirates you would expect more importance put upon the musician of the strawhats crew, they both are supposed to be worldwide music stars but there is 0 focus on Brook about is music background, even though people in the crewd applaud a random Navy captain like Kobby but do not recognize at all the Soul King himself, wasted potential. They could have at least one interaction about the role of a musician in a crew or the meaning of music but music here is more a plot device than a concept to explore and dive into. Extremely frustrating when you consider the BINKS NO SAKE version of Uta/Ado, present in the album as a bonus song but TOTALLY ABSENT from the movie which would have been the most perfect link for the strawhats crew and her view of piracy in general. In the end this movie is made for Ado fans first, then One Piece fan second, Shanks role in the story making him the only argument for a One Piece fan to go watch this movie expecting mysteries about him to be uncovered, which will led them to be very disappointed with what few informations we actually get about him and/or his crew, and if you are indifferent towards Shanks, this movie is straight up not worth more than a 3 filler eps from the anime stuck together. What is to remember the most except Ado's songs of course will be this post-credit scene, a very, VERY BIG surprise for me because of how indecisive i am about it, do I dislike it or not, Uta is a cannon character in the manga of One Piece, but once again this movie isn't, which makes every events in this movie unimportant but every discussion with the character possibly relevant to the story, Uta said something to Luffy we haven't heard and is hidden to us. With what she said to him remaining unknown for now I cannot take conclusion about this scene in particular, but if this information is revealed through the manga or the anime as an IMPORTANT piece of story or lore or character development, this movie will ergo become incomplete and thus worse by default as all movie stories should be self contained to remain coherent, takes the exemple of the last Star Wars trilogy to understand what are incomplete movies. Anyway Ado is the best, go watch the movie I need her to get more subs than Eve and becoming the first utaite in japan, thank you have a nice day. |
| I watched it at a movie theater in France. Hopefully, there was no yelling or people running inside (I say that because in some cinemas, it was a nightmare for this movie). So I could watch it calmly. I must admit that I've been disappointed. In my opinion, there was too much songs and a lack of action for a One Piece movie. I'm not against songs in movies but here, it slowed down too much the plot. The movie was a bit long and took a while to start. It is still watchable but it's not a movie that I would recommand or rewatch. |
| Mixed feelings all around, but a fire movie nonetheless. |
| I was worried I wouldn’t understand the whole movie when I went to see it today in Japan with no subtitles but turns out my Japanese is better than I thought! The story itself wasn’t groundbreaking but was worth it for the Ado songs that were spread throughout. I loved almost every song instantly. Apart from the songs, Usopp and Yasopp’s scene was my favourite part. It was also a refreshing surprise (I avoided the PVs) to see certain characters I haven’t seen in a while! |
 |
| i just watched it. Everything before Shanks's appearance was a mess and over the place, but the movie became enjoyable after my man shanks appeared. |
| The only thing I didn't like about this movie was the constant cliche idolshit holding it down. One "Disney's Hannah Montana" Piece for quite a few minutes of the duration, not a fan of that. The rest was nice, and the animation was superb. Also, I wasn't expecting Uta to be a villain in this, nor for her to die at the end (much less be the responsible for the massacre Shanks framed himself and his crew for her sake). It was the saddest One Piece movie so far in my book, unexpectedly dark too, considering it started so "happy lucky dochy yesyesyes". I'll go with an 8-ish/10. |

| Decent film to commemorate the 1000th Episode Anniversary of the series. Ado's tracks covered a diverse range of emotions and the harmony with the various scenes made it really fun and impactful, for certain. Particularly loved the change in tone brought about by the Tot Musica track, it literally sent a chill down my spine. Feels like the most Ado song, so there was that extra factor. As a character in general, Uta's character didn't feel very consistent and I suppose that was part of the point. Definitely took a few things too far and the movie seemed to be dragging for a bit in the middle. In the end, though, she had to pay for the cost of her life which didn't really affect me as much as I hoped it would. But then came Shanks... Man, I need a whole new section to articulate my feelings on Shanks in this movie. Nothing short of incredible, of course. His introduction, backstory of subduing Tot Musica, taking out most of the marines with just his Haki, putting up a facade while crying with his crew to ensure Uta not self-loathing and holding back his tears with the death of Uta - Everything, thank you Toei! Seriously, the third point from above about the whole facade thing was like daggers to my kokoro. And power? Aplenty. To top it off though, the stunning climax with Luffy. As expected, the animation was nothing short of fabulous! While there weren't that many action scenes, especially compared to the battle-fest in Stampede, all of them were blessed with high-quality sakuga. Some of the lighthearted comedy was integrated really well too. Got to say, Luffy took Uta's demise surprisingly well especially when compared to Ace. I suppose the fact that this was fully her decision and whatnot may have played a part... Parallel between Shanks being adopted as a child by Roger's crew and Uta by Shanks was very nice! One more thing that really pleased me was the ost which combined the main theme with the movie theme, that sounded so good ~ All in all, definitely rewatch-able material simply because of the amazing action sequences, glorious tracks from Ado-san, visual quality and, obviously what else, Shanks. Strong 7/10. Stampede was a class above for me but this is up there with the likes of Z, Gold and Strong World for me. |

| First of all Ado's songs were bangers, 10/10. Story/plot wise this movie was lacking but the songs and Uta were the main selling point of this one and loved em. Also it didn't occur to me that Uta maybe the antagonist before watching the movie but after starting the movie it was pretty obvious from the start. I'm really sad that Uta's dead, like maybe she's alive? Please? There were some decent action scenes with good animation. Was not expecting Luffy to use gear 5 there. Got to see it here before the actual anime itself. The last fight with the strawhat crews + others and Shanks + others on the otherside was lit. Zoro using Sanji as a foothold was hilarious. Enjoyed the movie, specially the songs. But Uta's fate sadly left me in shambles. |

| Did Usopp use advanced observation? |
| The movie was amazing! I really don't understand those idiots on the top reviews that are attacking and hating on the movie so much tho |
| It was actually a pretty weak story... and a lot of the 3d animation actually looked off... expensive, but off... But, that said, the songs were a banger, and while as a whole, the movie's story felt weak, many of the individual scenes felt okay and if you watched the filler episodes leading up to the movie, then it's enjoyable, seeing Luffy and Uta reunite. They actually had good chemistry.... Like, after Luffy meets again with Uta, it's basically just event after event.... not much build up, not much characterization... very little dialogue... Like, a lot of it works more because we knew so many of the characters from the main series.... But, while the songs are top notch and Uta was a great character, it's a weak movie... not one of the best... That said, I recommend watching it. It's still an enjoyable experience for One Piece fans... But note, it's not because it's a good movie but because it's something nice to watch, if that makes sense. But the events make little sense and it should be viewed as a fever dream... |
