Midajah N. @mimi10286 1d Love it, it fun creative See more Ry N. @RyGuy Sep 6 Episodes 1-61: These are classic episodes as Luffy sets up his base crew and visits their islands, including the fight with Arlong. This season wraps up in Loguetown (Connally) and the Warship Island filler. See more Caligo Aug 21 Legitimately one of, if not the, greatest fantasy story of our time. This anime should be considered on the same level as Tolkien's Lord of the Rings due to its massive world, consistent and well thought out worldbuilding, incredibly deep character explorations, commentary on real world problems, and more. On top of that, it's just super fun to watch! It of course has its drawbacks (pacing and animation can struggle), like any other piece of media. But LOTR is still an incredible fantasy even with all the walking it has; so I think that One Piece can absolutely be called the best fantasy of the 21st century.

See more Pedro Max S 01/25/2025 Pure trash: repetitive, unfunny, peopled with uninteresting characters. It's way below pirate stories like "The Treasure Island" and "Crimson Pirate", which are much more economic in terms on length. See more Read all reviews
