If you must blink, do it now.
People say One Piece is boring after the timeskip but I thought it was kinda boring before the timeskip.

Oda has never written a fight I was invested in, which is sort of a big deal when your job is explicitly writing about people who use violence to solve their problems.

The world and characters are fun though.

Was that Hosada movie before or after the timeskip?

I agree, but every chapters usually got a good gag in it so I dont care.


Thats the problem with the big climax fights, they get too fighty. Same with the flashbacks being too flashbacky. I just want to see everyone be goofy

I used to be really huge into One Piece but my interest died out when every arc had to be bigger and more epic than the last and after Water 7 that sort of stuff wasn't all that exciting to me.

Yeah, that's why I still keep up with it. Whenever everybody's not fighting, I typically enjoy the proceedings.

i like the shoujo archtype of the guy who looks like a player but actually just has a lot of sisters and thus understands girls really well, but mostly just finds them annoying

To the man who loves art for its own sake, it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived.

At first I didn't find the initial couple of eps too interesting on their own, but once I was familiar with the cast and they developed the characters a bit it was great

Yeah I was only really watching it on word of mouth and the first few episodes were decent enough, but it's a series that gets better and better as time goes on, I feel like.

those are like, legit workouts (if a little unbalanced, like the Yujiro one that's basically just designed to give you a ripped as hell back), i'm more just wondering who the gently caress looks at Baki characters and thinks "hmm yes this is what I want to look like"

To be honest I've kind of grown to dislike the new ones, too. I mean they're technically better of course but I think I preferred the PS2 ones, at least they were just kind of generic rather than weird/alien-like in the new ones. Good thing there are like a billion mods already out in the wild.

it is Good poo poo, it's just good poo poo in which 3/4 of the characters are ripped to an absolutely disgusting level that no actual human should ever try to imitate

e: like I'm pretty sure it's impossible to look like a Baki character without completely loving your body with roids
