I'm going to play the part of Devil's Advocate here.

I honestly didn't like One Piece (dubbed) or more to the point I just couldn't get into it. I can't remember the total number of eps I watched but I think it was near 20-30. I thought some of the characters were a bit on the anoying side, the guy with the long nose for example Oosa was his name I think. Or maybe some Japanese writer thought it'd be cute to spell it Usa with his anoying additude. *shrugs* who cares either way... point was I wished he wasn't in the show.

To be fair, I'm usually more tollerant and even tend to switch to subbed versions of animes like this that I know are probably better that way, less edited. Indeed, in the end I may do that for this anime to my ultimate suprise and satisfaction. Right now it's so far down my list it's in the stalled or dropped section until such a time as I care enough to dig it up.

IS One Piece worth watching? I'd say there's a deffinate possiblity, but not a probability. ;p ya... no help at all lol

even though I did actually like both bleach and naruto to a degree... one piece just didn't sink it's teeth in enough I suppose.

i dropped it pretty quick. really didn't want to get too deep into a kind of kiddish anime with hundreds & hundreds of episodes. who has that kind of time?? i'm satisfied with the 12 eps and 2 movies i saw. i'm over it.

Quite simply, whatever you do do not watch One Piece dubbed....especially the 4kids version....it'll make you wince and cry...

Watch One Piece though, it is one of my favorites. It's funny, entertaining and can be quite sad and emotional. I love it with a passion. I think you can describe it with the word, "Charming." (incidentally thats the same word you can describe me with!)

Watch One piece, you won't regret it!
(note, it's a bit slow at the beginning)

I watched maybe 2 or 3 episodes of the dubbed its not recomended but the subbed version I just recently picked it up and me and a friend are at 156 in about 2 weeks. After watching bleach and naruto for the longest time I don't know how I stayed away from one piece.

white argona:there must be something about this anime.look at how many people favor it!
black argona:the hell!so what?this damn art is realy ugly and childish.people have different tastes!
white:yeah but many naruto and bleach fans r watching it!
black:dont compare it with these too!the only similarity is the number of episodes!dont get on my nerve!!!
white:why not?after the first ep of naruto u were going to drop it casue u didnt like the art.but u decided to watch more and now its your top!
black:.......

Well I first left it alone because of the art and it looked like a kids show, but i'm damn glad I decided too give it a go. Now I can't get enough of it, even with almost 330 eps watched. (the episode count in the DB doesn't go past 325 tho :P). The art and design has really grown on me and I must say it should never be changed, along with the one piece style humor :D
