I've tried to both watch and read one piece multiple times, and it's incredibly stupid to me. No offense, but i can't even stand it.
you're able to stand multiple chapters of Obito despair speeches, but you're not able to stand multiple chapters of good story telling from OP? Lol

Naruto, all other anime/manga is irrelevant.
Eww..that's like saying that a PT Cruiser is the best car and every other car is irrelevant.

Have you ever even watched OP? Everyone who is caught up to OP should realized by now how Oda works. When he starts off an arc, he focuses on story. This is one of the reasons OP is so good, Oda focuses on the story and uses that to establish the setting and conflicts before getting to the action packed fighting. Due to One Piece's nature, this involves a lot of characters and comedy, which is usually pretty entertaining, though some of the humor can be off-putting. There is some fighting sprinkled out to prepare us for the fighting afterwards. It makes sense that Oda is giving off so much comedy in the past two arcs because we just had some serious arcs, such as Enie's Lobby and the ENTIRE Whitebeard Saga, from Luffy breaking into Impel Down to The Strawhat Separation to the Marineford War was 80% seriousness and 20% comedy. We also just saw the death of Ace. The focus Oda has on comedy is to be expected. Even the past arcs have much seriousness, Fishman Island had slavery and racism, Punk Hazard had a focus on ethics and Dressrosa is focusing on political corruptness in the form of Doflamingo. Oda needs the comedy to keep the series from getting too dramatic and killing the vibe we've come to love in One Piece.

The reason these past arcs seem to be taking forever with the pacing is because we just came from a timeskip. Oda has two years worth of stuff to reveal and also because he wants the development of events to be as realistic as possible, everything doesn't just happen in the blink of an eye.

You talk like Luffy is the only character or that we see him only. To say Luffy is a rip-off of Goku is totally wrong, while there are many similarities, Luffy is very different to Goku in the reasons he fights and his ideals.

One Piece fights are more than just that. The fact that you could even say that when Naruto is just "Big jutsu, meet my even bigger jutsu." for almost the entire war. One Piece fights are more than the actual fighting, what makes the fights epic is WHY they're fighting, which is why Oda takes the pace the way he does, he wants to make sure there's a good story as to why they're fighting, not just "Hey you, I don't like your face, let's fight!"
I don't think I've ever seen OP so beautifully described..

I've not gotten really into OP. Watched some of it, read here and there, but I don't have an opinion. What I experienced was good and there are some things I don't like, so I really have no opinion.

I really do like Naruto, but so many mistakes have been made since Shippuden and the war. Now, I like Shippuden better, but man, Part 1 focused on the other characters equally. Atleast we have Shippuden fillers I guess, but still. Also, this war in Naruto has been one of the worst arcs ever. It has moments, but so much more could've been done. I do feel that that after the Confining the Jinuriki arc Naruto has gone downhill more so than up.

dat sig tho,naruto has more logic than one piece.I eat a devil fruit and i become a giraf man....
Ok please, please explain to me how Naruto has more logic and OP less logic ...

And don't complain abot the comedy in OP because Naruto has it too, the only reason is that Kishi fails with comedy and Oda is a master at it

Also, it's funny how so many that prefer Naruto also included that they never really read OP in their posts

As for people complaining about OP fights: I honestly think that the Luffy v Rebecca "fight" (yes, the one that lasted 2 pages and was mostly comedic) was just heaps better than the entire fight against Obito and Madara ...

... Not to mention that as a character Papagg stomps the god tree

I droped one piece recently.
your loss
The story is not serious too much comedy in the new-world.
Exactly why Law is in a life threatening situation and everyone's targetting Luffy. Kuzan is back etc etc. Bringing in the OP characters once more , how is there too much comedy?
Luffy is basically a 100% copie of goku but dumber ,that annoys me
Uhh.... Goku was still a child when Luffy was created. No.
The time-skip sucks balls.
It's only just started up... it'll get back into its rhythm , the Dressrosa arc is pretty EPIC
Oda is taking his time to milk it that's why the pacing is slow for atleast 15 years,good luck for the people who read it.
Because the story is so vast and complicated : there's so much still to happen.
The fight are just who can kick harder or who can destroy bigger things...
Reminds me of some Manga about Ninjas...
If you knew what Haki is: fights are about skill in OP
