Ok so I was thinking. Allot of people either love or hate one piece. There's typically never a middle on this manga. So I thought I'd compile some things that I enjoy about it Nx see what you guys think.

1) I love the creativity

The creativity of all the devil fruits and their powers really amaze me. Oda has thought of things that I would never have thought of as having a power. Really great and adds to overall interest of the series. Another creative aspect that I enjoy is no matter how stupid the df power may seem, oda always seems to find a practical use for it. To the point where while reading, I catch myself saying "oh that's the most awesome power" and all it is is rubber or sound blocking.

2) love the goofiness

I love the comedic relief even in the heat of a super serious moment. Luffy could be fighting crocodile or whoever and it's an awesome fight then luffy does something completely random and funny

3) love the seriousness

I also enjoy how serious it can get. Example battle at marineford was an intense battle.

4) love the character outfits

I really enjoy the character outfits. There are goofy ones, super gangster ones, and everything in between

5) actually find of the art style

At first this is what kept me away from one piece. I didn't like the way the characters were drawn. Very disproportional but I've actually grown to appreciate it. It's not very often someone has the guts to go outside the box and I think oda pulled it off

6)story line

Last but certainly not least I love the story. I feel like it really helps give emotion to the characters. I enjoy the Fact that each page is full of dialog so it takes longer to read for the most part. I like how when an arc starts I'm usually thinking that it's gonna be a lame arc but I'm always pleasently suprised

Well that's it that I can think of. What are your guys favorite and least favorite things about this manga? I'm actually more interested in one piece then naruto at this point

You take the words out of my mouth (0_0) or keyboard... or anything...

Yes, certainly. I mean, for me, i know One Piece through a tv channel in my country, where it's for kids shows only. Since i was bored and my baby bro loved to watch the anime there, so we stumbled upon this series. It was only a few early episodes after SH entered Grandline, and my first thought was 'Wow, what a weird anime.'

Eventually i didn't care about it much but Luffy atm had caught my interest. After several years passed, like in the year of 2013, my other younger bro brought back a full episodes till the latest one he got from his friends and i watched it during holidays. I found myself couldn't stop from kept on watching, it was getting better and unique, especially in term of storyplot. It made you wanna know more despite of the lacks. After i finished watched 'em all, along with my siblings (where the last bro cried over Ace's death in front of us), we re-watch them again and again and again and again... I felt it wasn't enough so i started to read its manga. Like a bomb being dropped on me, dem the manga is more awesome and i stick to One Piece ever since to the point most of my friends know it is me whenever i use One Piece avatar for academic forum, just for fun.

I love it because Oda is someone that actually cares about his own work (cough togashi cough) and works as hard as he can to make every chapter awesome for us.

I watched so many cartoons & animes.After some time my friend suggested me to watch naruto and i loved it and then i searched for long animes because i don't like short ones very much then i found bleach & one piece.After completing bleach i was bored and thought now its time for onepiece so lets see what it offers.i took 3 weeks for me to complete first episode because i thought its not my cup of tea so after that i started watching it and completely became a fan of it and a worshiper of oda.now its my top 1 manga and anime.
