Ok so I've just recently started watching One Piece, I f*ckin' love this sh*t! I'm so glad I decided to give the series a chance.
Naruto is still my all time favorite but overall, Oda is better at one thing than Kishi, and this one thing is pretty important for me. Keeping main characters relevant...
Kishi did a great job at this in part 1 put strayed away from it WAYYYYYYYYY to much in part 2. In every arc, each straw hat gets their moment of shine, whether it be big or small. Oda creates many antagonist as to make sure every character can seem equally relevant and useful to the team. He makes me care about every straw hat member (even Ussop, whom I dislike very much at times)
Kishi only made 3 out of the many main characters seem relevant on a consistent basis (Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi) Sakura impressed me but eventually got the short end of the stick. What annoyed me SO much is that Kishi tried to give the characters development but did it in such an half assed way and some of the readers actually bought into that shit. In chapter 632 and 633 he gave Sakura and the rest of the rookie 9 (besides Naruto and Sasuke) one move to show some sort of development as if it were enough to satisfy the fans. People were impressed by them destroying some Juubi fodder clones that were obviously made to make them look good..cause we all know they couldn't stand a chance against Madara, Obito, or the actual Juubi.
Sorry Sakura fans but she still hasn't done anything impressive (summoning 1/10 with the help of somebody else doesn't count)
So yeah i still like Naruto much much more than One Piece at the moment but I gotta say Oda is much better at making people care about character the characters, it's honestly too late for Kishi..Neji's death didn't even hit me that hard because he had been so irrelevant in part 2 of the series that I just didn't care about him.
What do you guys think?
