The double DBF is filler, in the manga it's just one
Like, it's kinda funny, but def feels like we should have progressed more by now.

lmao as i figured, luffy is invincible to the lightning attacks. at least they made it more interesting and still a fight, and now he is stuck with a huge ass gold ball on his hand

really enjoy the humor in the show. usopp stare down with eneru, then like nope, bye. XD

So many small good moments in these episodes. but it seems like only one attack from him kills people, and i wouldn't be surprised if conis' father somehow survived at this rate lol

In the back of my head the entire arc after they unveiled Enuru and his powers I immediately thought "Are they really just gonna make Luffy 100% invulnerable to lightening?" and they sure fucking did, and I honestly love that they committed to that, and that it also explains why Luffy ended up trapped inside a giant snake for like, 20 episodes.

That moment is honestly still probably the joke that stands out to me most this entire show so far. It cracked me up so much I re-winded and watched it again.

As for your last point, very major spoilers for what you haven't watched yet, so if you don't wanna know. skip this and come back and read this later: The fact that they just brought almost everyone back is probably what weakens the arc the most IMO. You're dealing with almost literal Gods, attempted genocide of an entire group of people, all this crazy religious shit and... you just let almost everyone live? It reduces the stakes so much in retropsect and I hate it. Albastia did it too, but I don't think it was quite as noticeable as it was in Skypeia.

oda once commented on why he doesnt like to kill characters
his big thing is dreams. every character has their own dream
luffy wants to be the king of the pirates, zoro wants to be the greatest swordsman in the world, nami wants to chart the first map of the world, sanji wants to find the all blue and open a restaurant there, ussop wants to become a brave man of the sea

everyone is chasing their dream
the villains have dreams they are chasing to and its what ends up putting them at odds with the strawhats.
instead of killing them the strawhats crush their hopes of every achieving their own dreams which oda said is worse than death to them

That was most likely a mistake but the show just looks like Im trying to climb Mount Everest. Its kind of intimidating to get into. I just keep putting it off

so is luffy basically jesus? was thinking of this for a while now, and then when Conis was like "please God, save us" and luff takes down the electro-death star, it really just hammers it home. everywhere the log pose points to is where some evil is about to complete their final plans for domination, and then luffy stops them. i think he is the jesus to save the world and find the one piece. lmao

Afro Luffy in and of itself is... fine. Ish.

But there's one specific moment where Foxy burns him, Luffy has the afro and is visibly WAY darker than he normally is, and like 5 different people say something along the lines of "Oh yeah, that's his Brotherly power!"

I'll give Oda the benefit of the doubt that I don't think he had bad intentions, but... yeah.

I felt the exact same way for a very long time, but honestly, you should def watch it. It's the most straight-up fun I've had watching a show in a LONG time. It's a very silly show, but it's very intelligent and deliberate with its silliness, and the fact that I love every main cast member (we're up to 7 right now), and even my least liked character I still love. That's pretty impressive.

i watched the G8 filler arc, which was enjoyable, but then switched to onepace for long island and seeing here that there was a second davy back fight in the show made me want to get out of there asap. didn't really enjoy that arc too much and onepace just moves much faster than individual episodes.

Bruh, Ussop almost dying for, what in his mind, the money to repair the Merry, when at this point EVERYONE ELSE knows now that, sad as it is, the Merry is irreparable.

Fucking brutal.

Before I even started watching the show, I had it spoiled that the Merry has to be retired, and that at some point Luffy and Ussop fight over that fact, but even still, seeing the build-up to that is pretty wild and amazing.

Also I might have to fully stop watching the anime intros period, cause thankfully almost everything that would have been spoiled for me from the intro I had already had spoiled, but I think I'm reaching the end of my luck with that. Like, why the actual FUCK would they have Ussop legit fighting Luffy in the intro? That's so fucking stupid.

And it sucks, cause most of the time I like listening to/watching the intros to various shows, gets me in the mood for whatever it is I'm watching. But fuck man. I doubt Luffy will actually ever perma die, but if it did happen, I feel like this show would still put that in the mother fucking intro before it happened. Like, god damn.

It's because anime are made for Japanese people where the studios already assume they read the manga.

When Sanji's just being a bro, he's actually pretty cool. When Chopper wanted to warn Ussop about the tidal wave/storm thing, Sanji plays it all cool with the whole "Oh yeah, didn't you forget something at the ship" thing. Also earlier when he kicked Luffy before he could say something he knew he would regret. Kind of wish that moment played out a little longer.

Just wish his character was more of that and less womanizing.

Honestly, it's one of the reasons I can't get into One Piece. It's like 50% amazing story, rich world, awesome characters... and then 50% lazy gags, meandering side character subplots, and formulaic repetition.

I love the story, hate the series. I like to watch reviews, read the wiki, etc. but I just can't follow the actual series no matter how many times I've tried lol
