I'm sure plenty of other people have said this, but One Piece's anime pacing is god awful compared to the manga, which is dense and overall very fast paced (if you binge it). That doesn't justify it, you're judging the anime and not the manga after all, but this annoying jumping around is not this big of an issue. The excessive repeated flashbacks are also not an issue, just fluff. Edit: also, Zoro canonically has the biggest breasts on the ship.

2024-12-28 04:11:16 +0000 UTCMy headcanon is that she didn't get to choose her armor and it's supposed to be humiliating (I doubt she would herself choose to wear THAT of all things if she had a choice in the matter)

2024-12-16 17:50:15 +0000 UTCAbout how nobody sees the Tantatas: It's that they move too fast for people to see more than a blur AND that they're tiny. Nobody is expecting to see a tiny person, so their eyes just pass right over them. Which is ALSO why they didn't see her in Zoro's boobs; nobody was looking for a tiny person when they were looking at the guy talking to himself. And even if they DID see a Tantanta, they probably just assume it's a toy running around.

2024-11-06 16:03:15 +0000 UTCkinda funny - initially I wanted Rebecca to draw all the blood and was disappointed she was dropping them into the water uninjured. Then I heard the crowd calling her a coward for fighting that way and my mind did a total 180 - it's outright based that she's winning, staying true to what she believes... and NOT giving the crowd what it wants.

2024-10-23 19:18:37 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure that Rebecca's armor was chosen for her, less to sexualize her for the sake of fan service, and more to humiliate her as she fights for her life.

2024-10-16 05:15:39 +0000 UTCalicia's "im so done with this anime!" has me dieing. but Alicia imagine having to watch this one episode a week!

2024-10-03 11:15:25 +0000 UTCTrue Kyle, but this isn't one of them. She's tiny, and idk anybody who would think to look at a grown man's chest when they see him talking to himself. Honestly it's even more outlandish to think ordinary people are paying that much attention to their surroundings enough to notice a rat sized human.

2024-10-03 11:00:39 +0000 UTCLewd Angel, her issue with the show has nothing to do with the length, but the way Oda himself develop plotlines. Most anime have an A/B, maybe a C plotline during an arc, and each one will be focused on until their conclusion when they merge into the overall narrative. OP has a similar setup of multiple sub-plots in an arc, but instead will jump from one to another and develop them in bits and pieces until they converge into the climax. This could be easily remedied if it focused on Plot A, then Plot B, and so on one at a time, but that simply isn't Oda's brand of narrative structure. So instead it's Plot A/B one episode, then C/D, then A/D, etc. That's more so what Alicia seems to have an issue with.

2024-10-03 10:50:17 +0000 UTCI had forgotten, but I love Cavendish ^^ I'm sure it started here, when he stands up for Rebecca. And yes, that megaphone is so extra. Which is great, because his outfit and mannerisms are already extra. Good to hear you reflect on how you didn't fully express all your thoughts on Law saying he was saving Room. Your logic is sound. He was using it fairly liberally in Punk Hazard. My interpretation is that he is THAT scared of Doflamingo, and being who he is wanted to be EXTRA sure he had all the resources possible if he had to fight him. I think Law knows he can't beat Doflamingo, but figured that *maybe*, if he had ALL his strength he *might* be able to ESCAPE a fight with Doflamingo. Maybe. But no, the show doesn't make that clear, if it's the case. It's great to see you improve your craft :)

2024-10-03 05:22:24 +0000 UTCLewd Angel I think that Dressrosa is really the peak of these issues and in WCI and Wano I found those issues far less prevalent

2024-10-02 19:01:29 +0000 UTCyeah that website is an archive for thousands and thousands of patreon pages, often allowing people to access content for free, a lot of reaction content is there too, i used to use the site occasionally for some reaction content when i was unable to keep my patreon subscriptions consistently, unfortunately not much you can do since as long as they are subbed to the patreon they can keep anonymously uploading the content to the site. well there is some shenanigans you can do with having discord roles linked to patreon in order to access the vids for example
Lucy
2024-10-02 11:01:25 +0000 UTCImma be real i don't see it happening, the issues she currently has with the series only get worse as it goes on, One Piece is a great show but its length is its main drawback no matter how much the fanbase would never admit it, it simply can't hold up against shorter, more well rounded, well written shows

Emperor Moist
2024-10-02 03:55:45 +0000 UTCThe tiny people looked invisible in some frames because they were usually supposed to look like they were underneath the items they were taking or the camera angle would have them covered by something

2024-10-02 03:31:33 +0000 UTCi still have full faith that one piece will take #1, Youve seen plenty of really good shit, in the future you will witness why everyone calls one piece Peak If impel down was a 9/10 arc you will be seeing some 27/10 arcs
Emperor Moist
2024-10-02 03:27:14 +0000 UTCZoro jumped out of the window back in episdoe 631. So far he has been running with her for 21 episodes. With a brief stop in episode 648, when they were at the headquarteres.
Ebofa
2024-10-02 01:24:55 +0000 UTCThe manga was fine. Dressrosa is just a long arc, but the anime pacing is criminally bad. When i got here back in the day i quit one piece for a bit until i came back and watched one pace. it is so much better.
Dango
2024-10-02 01:21:53 +0000 UTCMy point still stands: it's a cartoon/anime, what people can or cannot see is up to the writer of the story. If Oda says they can't see the Tontatta, they can't see them.
Vincent
2024-10-02 00:29:56 +0000 UTCI know people have said the pacing in the anime and the manga were bad at this arc (i didn't mind the manga), but the anime is way worse about it. That scene with Doflamingo was stretched out, and there was no cutaway at that point. The manga does do a good bit of jumping around given how split up they all are, but I'll be glad when they get to this in the remake. If you do plan on watching that, I'll be curious to see if that improves your experience, because I'm certainly looking forward to less fluff.
TheRoguelock
2024-10-02 00:16:33 +0000 UTCThis is indeed part of it, notice how most of the gladiators are the same barely wearing any protection, the only people fully clothed are those not wearing armor because the clothes aren't so heavy as to weigh them down.

2024-10-02 00:10:47 +0000 UTCMy god bluey might be the only person who told zoro how to go in the right direction for once, though not sure it counts if he still almost missed, but also he did correct himself lol
james blaire
2024-10-01 23:18:18 +0000 UTCThere is a point when things that happen in the show makes it where we are no longer able to suspend our disbelief
Kyle
2024-10-01 22:45:27 +0000 UTCDo we count Zoro stopping to change directions?

2024-10-01 21:29:18 +0000 UTCYouโre thinking way too hard about the tontatta thing. It was just to hide their appearance until they were properly revealed. Idk why people were trying to explain away something that simple.
SpartanManJDOGG
2024-10-01 21:28:44 +0000 UTCYeah I know that. But Doffy ain't doing any of that.

2024-10-01 20:19:07 +0000 UTCI think the Tontattas are just small and the show really doesn't care much than that. It doesn't really make sense, but it's one of those things people retroactively try to justify... when I think Oda just lost interest in the bit after the reveal.

Faroth
2024-10-01 19:07:30 +0000 UTCFairies/tontattas arent just fast, they are tiny, so easily are mistaken for flowers, toys or decorations or covered on some clothes as she did in this episode so is harder to see them. Is not invisibility, is a 'perception camouflage/filter' and as the drummer said on the restaurant, is a "popular tradition", not a law, to just ignore them Bluey in zoro's shirt is easily mistaken for a blue flower or something
Faroth
2024-10-01 19:05:19 +0000 UTCMeant to hit enter to make a new line not finish lol. But yeah for example all of the scenes you see between zoro scenes probably happen simultaneously, what you're suggesting is that each scene is playing in chronological order and he's running for the time multiplied by number of scenes. Most of Dressrosa happens in a small amount of time
Jorden Powell
2024-10-01 18:41:22 +0000 UTC"even if you don't see zoro he's running the whole time" is not how that works ๐ same reason why they keep cutting from one place to another after I ly being there for brief periods. Multiple things are happening at the same time.
Jorden Powell
2024-10-01 18:39:04 +0000 UTCSeeing Alicia Trying to make sense of a manga/anime/cartoon is driving me up the wall. The reason no one could see Wicca before her reveal is irrelevant. She is supposed to be a tiny and fast creature. Can you see the details of a fly's face when it is moving around? And even if she was stationary in Zoro's chest, her size is minuscule. But regardless of this, SUSPEND YOUR DISBELIEF!
Vincent
2024-10-01 18:29:39 +0000 UTCAll Iโm going to say about Doffyโs speech about King Riku is consider the source of the statement and the character of the speaker.
BakaSama
2024-10-01 18:16:05 +0000 UTC... the fairy hid in Zoro's shirt. It's not like how the king fairy was riding around in Robin's cleavage, she was shown to literally be hanging down within the shirt so as not to be seen. And even if not fully, if there's some crazy running man screaming crazy to himself, regular citizens are either looking away or at his face.
Kamvex
2024-10-01 17:43:17 +0000 UTCYeah, this arc is really badly paced, both just on a chapter adapted per episode basis, but also because there are simply so many different plotlines going on at once.
Seraphem
2024-10-01 16:12:49 +0000 UTCFor zoro, it's gotta be over 20 eps by now heh
Ray_Ra_Ray
2024-10-01 15:40:34 +0000 UTCI wonder if the reason why you're so confused about the limits of Room is because the anime used it a bunch, but not the manga in the same scenes? I don't remember the details from manga though.

2024-10-01 15:33:47 +0000 UTCFirst I was going to point out that Ace was a pirate then I realized that they let people like crocodile live so yeah the execution really was cause it was Ace.

2024-10-01 15:26:49 +0000 UTCNah it's this arc in particular that is bad, but that is because it's so damn large of an arc. Not bad as in I don't like it just bad with pacing, this is actually one of my favorite arcs.

2024-10-01 15:24:43 +0000 UTCIt's about enriching everyone and calling out those who are unreasonably hording wealth.
Speed1247
2024-10-01 15:23:20 +0000 UTC20:52 I feel like it's kind of the point that her armor is not very practical, think of it less like gladiator armor more a prison uniform/ball & chain combo. It's thin and skimpy so it parades her around like a piece of meat to embarrass her in front of the Country that hates her and maybe get in the way of her movements like you described, it seems to be made entirely of gold which is both heavy and soft making it useless as armor just ask any Minecraft player, and finally the shininess of said gold makes her an easily spotted target by the gladiators who want to kill her and the audience who want to see her bleed out.

2024-10-01 13:53:48 +0000 UTCVia R: Rebecca is forced to live as a gladiator. Conan the Barbarian is a gladiator. Rebecca's costume is an homage to Conan the Barbarian's female counterpart Red Sonja.
Ok
2024-10-01 13:25:30 +0000 UTCOh boy those flashback scenes with Rebecca don't get any easier to watch a second time let me tell you. Also not to be nitpick Alicia but Zoro arrived at the tree and met with Frankie previously and him running around now is to get to the sunny to help the crew that's there, so it is not a continuation of him chasing her from before.
Gus
2024-10-01 13:20:44 +0000 UTCThis arc is so drawn out and padded in the anime it has almost 20 more episodes than the manga! Normally manga is adapted at around the rate of 3-5 chapters per episode, and the manga had 101 chapters! Seriously one of the worst parts of the anime, Father is already feeling the bloat.

2024-10-01 11:27:03 +0000 UTCThe whole invisible tontatta thing, that just comes down to classic show reveal rules. The same thing happened with Buggy power when he was introduced. Except for with Wicca(the blue one) when hiding in zoro's yities, they just that big.
GeeksFTW
2024-10-01 10:58:03 +0000 UTCI feel like you don't understand that the tontatta tribe are very small... if she's hiding in zoro's shirt, people aren't gonna see her because she's in a fucking shirt. Also, you're not gonna see her from the back if she's wearing a bag 8 times her size, the bag's gonna cover her.

Chris White
2024-10-01 10:40:05 +0000 UTCFirstly, Soldier-san is undoubtedly the MVP of this arc. Secondly, I love the little detail in Rebeccaโs flashback where despite her claiming that she only lived with her mother, the dinner table had three chairs instead of two, indicating that her memories have been altered. Thirdly, itโs good that Luffy called out the ridiculousness of hating Rebecca for what her grandfather did, since the main reason the Marines wanted to execute Ace had less to do with his actions as a member of the Whitebeard pirates, and more with the fact that he was the son of Roger, who he had nothing to do with other than a linage he never even asked for.
