I feel like Skypeia is way more important than people give it credit for, so I'm glad someone else thinks its an S tier. Wano deserved higher tho

Even if Skypeia wasn't a backdoor way for Oda to start introducing Important Lore poo poo, it would still be a top-tier arc based on Adventure, Vibes, and Boss Fight.

Eneru’s one of the best arc villains, dude just feels invincible on multiple levels even if the audience already knows how boned he is.

Not a huge fan of how they redid the Arlong arc

Eneru is great but his underlings almost all suck (none of them really have any memorable aspects other than Gedatsu) and the Shandians are introduced and just start fighting without really having any time to establish themselves as characters. It's a shame because it is necessary and there are some good parts but it's just generally a very weak arc in terms of storytelling (and it feels bad to get introduced to all the cool wider world stuff in Jaya and then leave it behind for something irrelevant for 100 chapters).

They fact they changed a bunch of other stuff but not Kuina's death being an accident means its probably going to be something that gets explained more later?

Just want to point out you are misspelling Hasan’s name, for what seems to be no reason and you didn’t even watch the stream. Why would anyone believe you. It’s Matt Owens’ tier list, they even talked about how the chat and community already know Hasan’s opinions on these arcs.

Lucky Roux is a bad influence on Oda, he shows back up in the manga and Kidd goes from being half of ending an Emperor to eating hilarious amounts of poo poo!

I haven’t watched any more of it yet but I was surprised to see Roger getting stabbed and then just bleeding out. I always assumed they were beheading him, this is much more brutal. Though I liked when Zoro cut Mr 7 in half, nice to see they remembered swords cut people.

Finally finished the last episode. Definitely the best adaptation ever. Some of the Arlong stuff I would do different, but it does tell the story well enough. Everything up to Baratie is as good or better than the early arcs in the manga or anime. Our continued faith in Gin is reinforced, and live action Buggy is even better than the manga. Lucky Roux's fighting is better than I ever dreamed. Ben Beckman is the only casting choice where I couldn't tell who they were as soon as they were on the screen.

Weird omissions
Hachi isn't even mentioned. Perhaps to preserve future changes in prosthetics/cgi.
Dragon doesn't even show up. There's a guy in a green cloak, but we don't see the actor and he's never mentioned.


The final scene is a nice teaser for people who are fans, but makes zero sense for people who this is their first voyage with the crew.

Man, I want to savor this, but people are already talking about the end!

I just watched the first episode and it's... really good!

Putting aside that it's One Piece, I'm not sure I've ever seen anything with this vibe before. It's got a very heightened kind of reality, and is still really visceral. I'm impressed by how much it feels like a cartoon.

This is reminding me of Batman Returns, especially at the 3 minute mark where it's sliding from a Catwoman theme on strings into more Sad Dark Clown / Penguin's grief with cello against low brass

This easily could have been a Danny Elfman piece.

Fake edit: Oh my God, I'm so sorry about the slur in the pun I made last night, I didn't see it until an admin pointed it out to me in messages this morning. It's been cleared up, and I'm so sorry.

Yeah everything up to Baratie is good. It felt like it needed 2 more episodes either to end on Loguetown or to let what they had breathe a little especially with how much they changed about arlong park.

They really did Buggy some justice in OPLA, I wholeheartedly agree.

I am kinda glad they're not touching on Dragon. OnePiece is potentially way too much to dive into all at once in one season.

I’m not understanding what the pun is supposed to be, when I saw it I didn’t see the pun or slur, just thought it was a standard issue shitpost.

I’m working but its a rainy day and I work from home, I really really want to watch the rest of it but I have to finish this work so I can be on vacation next week!
