My thoughts on One Piece so far. (Spoilers)

I doubt anyone will read this but I wanted to document my thoughts so far on One Piece to distract myself from some hardships. Sorry if my English is bad, I do have a learning disability

I didn't get into the anime until earlier in 2024 so this is my unfiltered thoughts as a new fan of the show.

I found getting into the first season hard, I felt it dragged on. I dropped it for a month after Luffy picked up Zoro. I gently don't have much thoughts on that besides my boyfriend begging me to pick up the show again. I regained interest when being introduced to Usopp. Ill be honest, I did find his character to be annoying, wasn't a fan of the twink claiming to be captain. Although he did grow on me over time while in Loguetown. It's also hard to not like Luffy, he's just funny. Luffy is also strangely perspective at times when you don't ever expect him to be.

I also don't have much to say on when they pick up Sanji, his story was okay for me. I do like all the Straw hats so far, but I find I like Sanji's character more when he isn't simping. Power to Nami for using his simping to her advantage.

Nami's story is really when I started loving the show. Nami's past had me sobbing, I had yet to cry. Normally I'm easy to get emotional, but so far the show hadn't tugged on those heartstring of mine till Arlong and the village. Now I can't look at a tangerine with out thinking about Nami. I love Nami and so far she might be my favorite. Nami is the most selfish and selfless character I've ever seen. She put her selfishness a side for peoples when the time calls for it.

Vivi is also one of my favorite. Although you can tell that it was a sudden decision to make her a princess. It felt so off but I grew to except it.

Meeting Chopper had me tearing up, not gonna lie. I love Kureha and I'm sad we won't see her again. I just love my lil deer boy. Best boy, good boy.

The Alabasta ark, so far my favorite ark so far. I don't think there was a time were I had a break to calm down because of all the tention. You can't not love Vivi through all of it. I was trying not to cry with the clock tower scene. Vivi begging everyone to stop fighting with all her might because that's all she could do had me struggling. Also Zoro some how getting lost in an active war zone had me shocked. Like dude active ran away from the noise of gunshots and thought "yeah checks" out while looking for a bomb. BUD please.

Skypiea, not going to lie, it was mid. I genuinely had a hard time getting through it. I did love Wyper and Aisa, but it felt like a drag. Keep in mind there was no filler to skip in that ark. I've been skipping filler episodes that don't protein to the story. If I were to watch one piece over again, I would skip it. We also did skip a mini filler ark, according to my boyfriend it was annoying and not worth it.

Water 7, I'm not finished with this ark yet, but so far I'm enjoying it. I wasn't a fan of Franky at the start for obvious reason, but he grew on me. Usopp feeling useless made me tear up. The fight between Luffy and Usopp was gut wrenching because the fight was truly for nothing. The ship couldn't be fixed fighting wouldn't change it. I also started liking Sanji more because of him stopping Luffy from saying something he would regret.

You can tell Sanji cares more than he lets on with the guys, and him making up an excuse with Chopper to warn Usopp about Aqua Laguna really did show he truly likes Usopp. I genuinely like Sanji when he isn't simping. I hear it gets worse like him actually barking or almost dying from a nose bleed, and I'm not excited about it. Im hoping we get into Robins backstory this ark, I do like her. I have a feeling I'll be crying again. Currently I'm not the part were There trying to get Robin back and Usopp is trying to convince Robin.

rhea, i'm going to tell you “fuck you” in the most affectionate way because you wrote something that destroyed me but somehow made me so happy. i cried the last three episodes of stravin' darlin' and i thought the mcd tag was for [REDACTED] but i never imagined it was for [REDACTED] and now i can't stop crying.

okay first i want to say thank you so so so much for writing that beautiful ff. second i want to tell you that you're an amazing writer, you wrote something that made me feel like i was watching some kind of coming age movie and i loved every second. and third i have a doubt. when mary gave the bracelet to barty and told him that evan's bad luck was ending, she meant that because he was dying, right? and what would have happened if barty hadn't given the bracelet to evan? how different would the ending have been?

again thank you for stravin' darlin'. that ff will always have a place among my favorite ff xxx!

HI😭😭

gahh you finished it okay…i’m sorry. but fun fact 4 u it was actually supposed to be the other way around! i had that ending planned for the longest time until i didnt. (i think i remember asking @neaverse to pick who dies bc it’s her fic anyway)

and coming of age movies/books are always my favs so this means everything to me u have no idea i’ll go bawllll.

now 2 answer your questions! 1 i’m gonna be so honest with u i have no fucking clue i just woke up and my brain isn’t braining but i do also remember rambling to nea about it so it’s probably buried somewhere in our chat. but! i do like your version a lot sooo if anybody cares anon is right! anon is smart!

and GOD hmmm. how different the ending would’ve been…i have a lot to say so i’ll ramble under the cut yeah?

starting this off by saying that i’m a v superstitious person so i have thought abt this a lot while writing it and hm.

i think barty giving evan the bracelet was kinda? delaying the inevitable? (evan dying. he was always meant to die first) so if barty hadn’t given him the bracelet, nothing bad would’ve even happened to him. he wouldn’t have died. (the he in question is barty. he doomed himself by giving evan the bracelet.)

i like to believe that if he hadn’t given evan the bracelet, he would’ve died when he got shot. that’s actually kinda the symbolism of the bracelet breaking. yknow with jade bracelets how they break when they ‘serve their purpose’ aka just ward off enough negative energy? it’s the same with evan’s bracelet, it protected him when he got shot! that’s why he didn’t die! and that’s why it broke! because (🥁🥁🥁) it served its purpose!

sooo the ending would’ve probably looked like barty killing himself to be with evan. or maybe he didn’t. i honestly don’t know this guy’s brain is so difficult sometimes. but i dont think he would’ve been able to live without evan sooo…do with that what you will!

lastly tysm for ur asks theyve seriously made me so so happy and so so giddy i love talking abt sd and u showing love to her (and me! im not happy with the writing of her at all so u complimenting me on that is so <3) i hope u had a lovely lovely week because you’re such a lovely person ty again<33

ROC OMG U LIKE LUCIFER TOO ?? HELLO ??? WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE HAVE YOU FINISHED SEASON 6 WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON HOW THEY ENDED IT WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE EPISODE omg im so sorry for being a little crazy but i havent found anyone who has liked this show and i have been DYING TO TALK ABOUT IT WITH SOMEONE AAAAHHH

FSLJFSHLJBS IM SO SORRY I DIDN'T SEE THIS MESSAGE -SOBBING- Tungl app not notifying me anymore so i am like walking blind duckling. BUT! I DOOO!! It's honestly one of my favorites, my sibsib just crashed into my room one day when the first parts started trickling into netflix and just said "WATCH. THIS..."

No regrets, but I stopped after season 5 since 6 wasn't even confirmed yet! I have to catch up asap it's just SITTING there unwatched and unfinished. My brother did tell me the details of how it ended though he was very happy about it! I don't know much of the bitter, only the sweet. BUT MAZE AND BAE... yesyesyes I love that for them.

I honestly can't remember my favorite episode but I DO remember the drinking game we had for season one. Take a cinnamon toast crunch shot every time Luci says "DETECTIVE!" We did not last very long before we had to stop for our health SFKHHSB.

My favorite character though and an episode I was jumping in my seat for was Boo Normal (yeah pretty early, I love the others so much but my memories are a little faded. So this just means I get the fortune of rewatching with bright eyes x3). I JSUT>>.. ELLA... BELOVED, WONDERFUL SWEETHEART OF A BEAN. And Azrael is wonderful too OTL I love them. Maybe because she tries to be bubbly, is a little morbid, and felt disconnected with the others sometimes and was just so relatable.
