| Nope. It's just a ripoff of fairy tail. |
| Try it yourself. We can't tell you what's good. |
 |
| In my opinion it's one of the best shounens out there. So yea, worth giving a try |
| ummm yeah but theres lots of arcs which have drag out periods, where theres no progression, it has good character development and flashbacks, but too much episodes, im watching the dub, so halfway of jap, up to 335, |
| Naruto and HxH have more serious of a plot while One Piece is more comedy. If you expect One Piece to be one of those more serious shonen then you will be dissatisfied, but if you are just looking for a fun comedy series with action then this is the show for you. However don't go into this show with extremely high expectations, or you will be disappointed. |

To answer the OP, it's one of my favorites, but it's hard as fuck to get into and definitely not for everyone. I'd watch until Arlong park, and if you don't like the way the arcs go, then digs probably not for u |

| Either way, its still just a Fairy Tail ripoff. OP may have come first, but FT did it better and OP changed to follow it. |
| FT did it a lot fucking worse, and I haven't noticed any changes in OP that mirror FT |
|
| Try it, if you don't like it then don't watch it. |

Naruto and HxH are darker, more serious, both Naruto and HxH at some points become a thriller with even some horror elements. One Piece is much more comedic, lighthearted, and yes it knows when to tone down the comedy, the drama in Arlong Park is one of the best I have seen. But it still isn't a dark show that Naruto and HxH become. Though I haven't seen enough OP to judge it. But I don't believe One Piece becomes something like Naruto was in Chunnin Exam arc or HxH in Yorknew Arc. And if it does well then I am watching OP right now. |

| I'm neutral about OP, had its good moments. But FT is complete garbage compared to OP. |
| No, it's shite. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |

They happen once every 40-50 episodes, am I wrong? But compared to a shonen like Naruto or HxH, one piece doesnt have a serious plot. Expect people getting shot in the chest with 8 barrels and not dying. In 700 episodes only one or two characters of relevance died. Its not a horrible show but dont get your hopes up man |

Qans said: Having deaths does not make something serious. Most of the arcs become serious after they set up the premise and introduce the conflicts.

Well it's good then, but it's hard to believe there are arcs as creepy and thriller-like, like Chunin Exam arc in the forest or just beasicly everything with Orochimaru. Though I am stupid to expect such things from a show about pirates adventures. Not that it is a bad thing. |

| Don't bother watching it. Have you seen that episode count? It will take a while before you get to the "good" part, and if you won't like it by then you'll have wasted a lot of time. It's very slow paced too... better to spend your time watching shorter anime. |
| what is one piece? |

SolvitePriest said: Qans said: You think I'm wrong lol? He has a point. Thinks dont have to be Urobuchi level serious to be considered serious. I don't expect it to be Urobuchi edgy serious. But if someone gets blown apart with a 5km diameter bomb, I expect them to die. Is that unreasonable? |
| Not really. It's quite mediocre in a lot of aspects, and with the pacing of the anime, it's just terrible. |

| I´d say watch it, if you dislike the first couple of episodes stop watching, if you enjoy it keep watching it? If you get bored of it stop watching it? In the end your request is to vague, since something good is completely determined on how YOU define good. |

How the hell can one piece rip off suttin that came 9 years later? REKT said: I have seen HxH and Naruto does that mean I will enjoy One Piece? Is it worth watching all? its god damn insane!!!!! watch it!!!! Its just as good as Hunter x Hunter but it rips Naruto to frkn shreds man! Lots of comedy but a great story! its not always light hearted but not as dark as Hunter x Hunter. its over the top fun man. keep watching and once you've reached the Alabasta arc THEN you will c the true One Piece! one of THE best arcs! |

| The real question is: why haven't you watched it yet? It is without a doubt the best shounen. Unless you prefer grimdark and edge, then no. Go watch Akame ga Kill instead. |

| please... ...don't compare OP with FT.... ...ever... |

| It's very good. It's one of the rare battle anime I've seen that makes frienship well rather than over the top cheesy. It has excellent comedy, perhaps even funnier than early Dragonball. The world building is also amazing in every possible way imaginable. I think it's also one of the rare shows that can elicit a vast number of emotions from the viewer. Characters are okay. The plot is engaging but may become repetitive at times and arcs might have fillerish content every now and then. It's rather lighthearted so if you like darker shows it may not be for you. It does have some awesome drama at times though. I am not too mad for the fights tbh. Some fights almost completely lack strategy especially the early ones and can be ruined by random jokes but they do get better later. Seems like Oda and Toei prioritize creativity to choregraphy and strategy in battles so if you like that then go for it. It doesn't have much character development but that's partly because unlike other battle anime, the characters were adults from the start and already and hence more static (but not flat). Some arcs are rather formulaic. Art is somehow goofy and takes time to adapt to. Animation and pacing both became horrible after about 500 episodes but they are fine in the early arcs. Voice acting and OSTs are top notch. Best thing though is: PriestSlayer said: Try it yourself |
| It's Shit, mediocre and pathetic, Naruto is far better than One Piece. Even Fairy Tail is better than One Piece and One Piece is a Rip-off of Fairy Tail! |
 |
| All in all, it's kind of average. It may suffer from weak world building, lack of original/creative ideas, and having no plot most of the arcs, for example, a lot of races introduced are shallow templaces of already existing folklore elements. but it still can be enjoyable with specific scenes and good music. It's more of a typical shonen, so if you enjoy Naruto, you most likely will like it. HxH is in a whole other category so you can't tell if you'd enjoy one based on the other. |

| It's a one-of-a-kind experience, so I'd say, watch it. |

| I love it but sometimes it gets cliche and boring, repetitive and underwhelming moments. Heavy dialogues are a big factor for why I think One Piece remains an average shounen series, 70% of talkings in a chapters are for comedy relief, thus pointless. It just didn't look interesting to me at all, even though I'd read 10 chapters everyday I still think there are countless of anime who are superior to it. |
