Synopsis

Gol D. Roger, a man referred to as the King of the Pirates, is set to be executed by the World Government. But just before his demise, he confirms the existence of a great treasure, One Piece, located somewhere within the vast ocean known as the Grand Line. Announcing that One Piece can be claimed by anyone worthy enough to reach it, the King of the Pirates is executed and the Great Age of Pirates begins.

Twenty-two years later, a young man by the name of Monkey D. Luffy is ready to embark on his own adventure, searching for One Piece and striving to become the new King of the Pirates. Armed with just a straw hat, a small boat, and an elastic body, he sets out on a fantastic journey to gather his own crew and a worthy ship that will take them across the Grand Line to claim the greatest status on the high seas.

One Piece is a masterclass in long-term storytelling and worldbuilding into which its author, Eiichiro Oda, imbues a genuine sense of emotional vulnerability, leading to an enormous amount of sentiment and heart being conveyed to the reader through its characters and use of narrative; this series is so good at making you want to cry.

One Piece also has some of the best art I've ever experienced in manga: while not being the most technically impressive, Oda draws with a unique and expressive artstyle while also possessing a seemingly instinctual, Toriyama-esque understanding of how to guide the reader's eye through a page.

While I do have numerous ...

Preliminary (1125/? eps)
One Piece is a series that has much of what you want but also leaves a lot to be desired. There are many things the series does quite well, and there are many things it just does not do or fails to do at an adequate/consistent level. I’ll give two examples. One is one pieces world building and how grand and ambitious it is, alongside its narrative. This is does well but it also is a double-edged sword because my next example is…Character Writing in One Piece I believe is awful. Especially considering how long it is.

People will always ask "when does this get good?" and answers will vary. My answer to that is around 450 chapters in. I don't understand how people can claim that One Piece is a god-sent masterwork from Romance Dawn. It's slow, obnoxious, repetitive, predictable, and unbelievably annoying. The identity of the series is also steeped in juvenile misogyny that gets gross pretty quickly. Dragon Ball did it for a couple volumes. One Piece did it for 20 years.

The Story is basic but fine. Clear motivations, clear goals. Nothing wrong with that. The art style is sometimes overwhelming. You get used to it and it's ...
