Summary:
Gol D. Roger was known as the Pirate King, the strongest and most infamous being to have sailed the Grand Line. The capture and death of Roger by the World Government brought a change throughout the world. His last words before his death revealed the location of the greatest treasure in the world, One Piece. It was this revelation that brought about the Grand Age of Pirates, men who dreamed of finding One Piece (which promises an unlimited amount of riches and fame), and quite possibly the most coveted of titles for the person who found it, the title of the Pirate King.
Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy that defies your standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece, are his reasons of becoming a pirate. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece.

Summary by: MAL Rewrite
It's nice, really good. One Piece has many arcs, all of them are long, which may sometimes get boring if you do not like the general idea of a certain arc. However, most of the time, it's really fun and unique ideas. Even since i started watching, i always wonder how the author can expand on the idea about Luffy being a rubber man. It's a really unique idea, but hard to expand on the type of powers and techniques he can make with that sort of ability. So all the ideas that comes out form the author, like the thing about the second gear and third gear, really fascinates me. However, for Zoro and Sanji, because their attacks all looks similar, i cannot remember any of they attacks, they all look the same to me. I also did not like the fact that in the recent arc, the one where they went to the mermaid island, Luffy and the rest were supposed to be must stronger, but Luffy keeps on using his second gear, which makes me really wonder if he really did get stronger. He also did not really use his haki for predicting the opponents movements.
I must compliment that this is about the most sad anime i have ever watched. Usually, after you watch to many times, you get sick of it and can barely feel the emotions anymore. However, for One piece, the part where Ace died, no matter how many times i watched it, i still feel super sad. I think this just shows how the people animating this is good at showing emotions, and how the voice actors are also good at portraying the emotions through their voices. Truely, i really love Luffy's character. Even though all the time, he seems like a care free person with no brain most of the time, at times, Luffy shows who he really is. He can understand a person's true feelings, I really love how they suddenly put that in at times where things seems hopeless.
The whole anime or storyline seems like it's being planned out in arcs. One thing i really hate is that, its super draggy and shows very little progress in each episode.
For this anime, i think it's good to just wait for the whole arc to finish before starting to watch, because the progress of each episode is just to small.
Art ratings: 3.5
Unique. Just thought there was to much of an exaggeration in the body curves.
