The Opening 1 is used 4 times: the first, the second interpreted by the Japanese doublers of the characters, the third is a remix, the fourth is to celebrate the 1000th episode of the anime. One Piece is for me like the Odyssey of Homer, but from the 21st century. Just as Ulysses traveled from island to island to find his own island with divine conflicts for backdrop, Luffy travels from island to island to find the One Piece with conflicts between the different factions for the backdrop. And as a 53 -year -old man, I’m not ashamed to say that I laughed and cried while watching the anime for over 20 years.😊

One Piece is the modern equivalent of Homer's Odyssey. A story millions will remember for generations. It's taken over 25 years to write and isn't done yet.

Yes one of the best considering how long it is but a good story take it time that why oda the creator of one piece is the goat

Don’t let the jolly and whimsical appearance fool you 😂 one piece delves into serious topics as the story goes on. It’s a great series with so much depth, world building, immaculate character backstories and character development, lore, history, literally everything you want in a story 🔥

Literally one of the best stories ever told 🔥🏴‍☠️

Oh, also - One Piece stopped having endings for a long time so the openings were made twice as long to compensate. I think they've started having endings again recently, though.

Hold on the fact you said “luffy baboon” as his name is actually crazy considering that his full name is Monkey D Luffy

As someone who has watched countless animes this one remains #1 for me. People say it's mid because it's too long or it has bad pacing, but One Piece compensates for it through everything else. The worldbuilding, character design, plot, humor, and emotional are masterfully thought out by Oda and it gets better and better throughout the series. At it's core One Piece is an adventure story, and because of its length it really feels like you're on an adventure with the crew. No other anime has made me feel as attached to the characters as One Piece. Highly recommend checking it out!

as a japanese, one piece is a must watch. as a man who lives in england, it’s also a must watch.

In my humble and very biased opinion, One Piece is the best story ever told. I'm 30years old. I cried over 2 things in the last 12 years and those are death of loved ones and One Piece. It's actually crazy :D

Yes One Piece can give a feeling of a kid's action show. However it deals with highly mature themes. Everything from Theft, Extortion, Backmail, Murder, Racism, Slavery, Child Abuse, Rape, Graphic Torture, Drug Abuse, Child Experimentation, Genocide, War, and much more are brought up in the series. And One Piece lore is arguably more complex than either Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones. If you ever do watch the series, you will probably laugh at the childish antics of the characters but also realize the complex political conflicts of the factions in the world. It is a story that can make you laugh, cry, rage and get pumped all in one episode of the series.

The series is kinda very dark, in an adult way. It's not in-your-face-dark but the themes reflect some real world problems too... like human trafficking and societal oppression, and a lot more.. And the author does address it. It's not noticeable because of the cute character designs 😊 Been a fan of the series since I started reading/watching it 10 years ago. Now I'm 28 and I still love it😭

1st we are(opening 1) was the original version obviously 2nd We are(opening 7) was sung by the main crews voice actors 3rd We are(Opening 10) was a Remix of it 4th We Are was a special version made for episode 1000

One Piece isn’t just a great anime, it’s an amazing story. It’s comparable to some of the greatest classics in history. It’s the odyssey of anime, it’s been incredibly impactful to not only Japanese culture but ours as well. You can find One Piece references in many of our own media that you’d have never seen until you watch/read One Piece for yourself.

I started the anime the weekend the live action dropped on Netflix in like September last year. Walked in on the wife trying out the live action, knew I liked it right away, turned around and started anime after less than an episode. Watched to current before new year, and am currently getting manga current, like110 in of like 1100 and counting. If you have the time, do it. Cant recommend it highly enough. Especially as someone who never watched more than the first year of Pokémon whenever that hit, it’s been a great basically introduction to anime as an adult.

One Piece very much is a power of friendship good vibes show, but it has some of the most gut wrenching, tear inducing moments as well. The dark moments make the good times shine brighter. Major themes are pursing one's dream, the power of a found family, sacrifice for others, moral vs legal right vs wrong. It's my favorite anime from a plot and character standpoint. It does suffer at times from pacing issues around the midpoint, but it does not suffer from pointless filler like Naruto did (in my opinion). The second "We Are" at 19:00 is sang by the VAs for the Straw Hat crew.

I like how you analyze the music, to be honest this great story has been accompanying me all my life, from childhood where I saw it on TV, to adulthood, so imagine what this story means to me and to others. At first it may seem very funny, but when it wants it knows how to aim for your heart, I remember how I cried in the Ace arch... it was a trauma for me, but it is something that will become immortal in my opinion

Had a great time watching this with you ❤ One piece becomes my favorite anime over everything

oh boy, wait until he knows how much more darker this is compare to demon slayer xD

We still don't know what the One Piece is! Oda's only said two things about it (to my knowledge). 1. it's not just gold and jewels 2. it's not 'the friends we made along the way' or anything like that So it's not 'just' treasure, and it is, in fact, 'something' is what we know. I've not got into the latest arc yet, so I'm not fully up to date - so take my info with a grain of salt, I guess!

Actually no one really knows what the One Piece is... But what I can tell is that it is the most mysterious treasure that there is (in that world). It is also the final treasure (when it is found the anime will end). It's like the Saint Graal or the Youth Fountain of legends... The crew just navigate the entire world to find it. PS.: There were the Pirate King who got his title by finding the One Piece, but he was executed and disclosed the One Piece existance. After him there's Luffy (but not only him) who wants to find this treasure and become the second Pirate King...

This was like when you wanna show your friend something but they keep looking away at the coolest parts 😂

The main character's name is Monkey D. Luffy ( pronounced Lou Fee), he ate something called a Devil Fruit named the Gum Gum fruit giving rubbery powers

At 18:05 this opening is sung by the main cast voice actors so that’s why they made that second one

Its been years and this is still my favorite anime overall. There's just nothing else like it ^^

Luffy Baboon😂 You weren`t far of either🤣

Take your time watching it, dont rush and when you catch up you'l be wanting more and wish you can keep watching

The thing about one piece is that, everysingle character got to shine in their own ways, since we all know how sad a hero background story can be... But Oda (one piece author) put love into his story and tells a good story for everyone be it main character/ side character/ villains / background characters... Honestly I would love to watch your journey with One Piece if you do start~... also love the video as always

Epic Reaction Joely!!!! I think I remember seeing you react to this and it was amazing! Seeing your reaction again for the second time was really fun! ❤️ Keep up the excellent work man! ❤️💪

I've seen like 300 anime since i started in 2012, only started watching one piece a year and a half ago and for me one piece is the best anime. I'm on episode 940 so i'm super close to catching up. But its just such a great journey. Its just consistently high quality all of the way through.

both Naruto and One Piece anime are such top tier and good animes, the creators are also close friends in real life too 😁

Man, one piece is amazing. Every music is so good. Hope you watch this anime some day even though there's a lot of episodes. The story and characters are all good. Nice video 👍

When it comes to anime reactions, despite me not watching your channel, I couldn't help but comment this advice: Don't stress yourself to put it to a schedule. Go at your own pace and just put your shows into a rotation. That way, your watchers know what will be your next reaction, but you'll get to it when you get to it, so you don't have to rush yourself to fit it in. A lot less stressful that way, I feel. Hope that advice helps.

It's the best piece of fiction ever known to mankind and people can it mid 😂

To show the span of this great anime, i was 8 when it first came out. Im now almost 34 years old. Also your "what is the One piece?" question to everything you said on your theory the answer is... Yes.

Luffy has been saying he's going to find the One Piece to become King of the Pirates ever since episode 1. As for what the One Piece is, that's the central mystery of the whole story, that will only be answered at the end of the Grand Line. The One Piece is a thing as confirmed by the author, it's not going to be "the friends we made along the way" sort of thing. However what's unique about Luffy is that he doesn't care if it is, he just wants to go on an adventure with some friends anyway.

On the plus side, not paying too much to the visuals does keep the openings from being too spoilers for you. Wait until you hear the actual OST.

"I usually associate Pirates with bad people." Understandable. In this series, the technical definition for pirates are adventurers and dreamers. ...unfortunately, like 80% in their world fit the more cutthroat evil stereotype typically associated with Pirates.

Trust me,that "wedding" would have been anything but a "happy celebration"...! Ugh,I shake in anger just at the thought of it...!!

Funny thing is, you talk about how bright and cheery this anime is, but that's only if you stop looking at the surface level. This anime genuinely gets pretty dark at times, and touches on some really messed up themes and topics that most series don't. Like, I don't think anime like Naruto or Demon Slayer get half as dark as One Piece does. Seriously, some of the stuff you see in One Piece is genuinely horrifying if take the time to consder it.

>"UK drummer" >has no drumming video by himself am I missing something?

that's not a spoiler, don't worry ^^ well basically the one piece is the name of the treasure that the previous (and only) king of the pirates left. the title of king of the pirates is given to those pirate that reach the one piece, because reaching the one piece means reach the last island of the world.

"Is sagashimono a character?" My guy you have the translation onscreen.

For One Piece fans, it's the best manga/anime of all times. For One Piece non-believers it's either mid or bad. And when they say mid, they say it in derrogatory way. I enjoyed your reaction focusing on the music from a technical view. I say focusing on the music, because at times you weren't looking and missed some things, I know you reacted to the visuals and even theorized like a true OP fan does, but in One Piece there are details everywhere and if you miss them, then you'll lack context in the future. It's an ongoing adventure and some things that you see, you'll only get context some several hundred episodes down the line. That's why some people re-read the manga or re-watch the anime. It's a journey.

Wait till he figures out Overtaken.

Where do people rate this? Well.... Nothing special.... just the greatest story ever told in all of fiction.....

In One Piece, the pirates aren't necessarily all good or evil. Same with the Marines. There's a lot more depth than that, so it's hard to know from openings who's good and who's bad outside of the main cast (which is a good thing)

All pirates are bad guys? Luffy was asked that once, his answers was 'Hmmmm? You decide."

1 hour heh, long journey yeah🤣

One Piece has a relatively slower start, but it gets better as it goes, continually getting better. As this one review video says: "One Piece may not be said to be fast going, but it IS always going, always going towards the same goal." Or something along those lines.

I'm over 1,000 episodes into One Piece. I'm glad I watched it, and I'm a fan of it, but I must say that it isn't the best show out there by any margin. Its highs are seriously high, but its lows really drag. The pacing can be quite bad too. As for the best anime that I've at least seen? Attack on Titan, and it isn't even close. Highly recommend it.

The only people that call One Piece "mid" are either: immature kids, haven't watched 10 or more episodes, or jealous of the quality and effort put into this weekly show that many seasonal animes dont get.

Don't be daunted by the number of episodes, like most people are. It's supposed to be an adventure you take with the protagonist. Take your time if/when you decide to watch, and don't let people sway your opinion on it. In my opinion, I believe it is the greatest story that is being told. But I digress, you should find out for yourself and enjoy the journey.

Luffy is pronounced as Loofy. His family name is Monkey & his middle name is D but in japan they say their names backwards saying the surname first. So his name would be said Monkey D Luffy

41:19 "That actually looked quite emotional" "like something had happened" Well, if you had paid a minimum of attention to the previous images where Luffy looked desperate for something without his smile and seemed to be going through bad things, added to the sad music, you could have known. It made me angry that you didn't pay attention to literally the event that marked One Piece the most. 😅

Hey man lovely first reaction! Had a great time watching, just a heads up these kind of videos can get a copyright claim for the music being used (hope it doesn't) but as a huge one piece fan and a drummer myself it was super cool to see you do the whole track list in one video and talk about how good some of the beats on these songs are! Also in case no one else said it already the main character luffy is a rubber man hence the long arms and the weird abilities he has.

Oh, and something I saw in another video may help with these openings in regards to copyright. If they're copyrighted, replace their sound with an 8-bit variant of it.^^

Oh, as a side note for the surnames in this world, they always say the surname first instead of last. So, if Luffy was in America, he'd be Luffy D. Monkey, but in the One Piece world, it's Monkey D. Luffy.

How I wish you know the context each openings it would be a blast but yeah I really suggest watching it from the start.

We still dont know what one piece is only oda know. But what we fan theory is one piece hiding the secrets of void Century in op world

I just had to come in and comment that I loved your Reel Big Fish shout out on opening 8. It's one of my favorite bands and that opening is my favorite!

Speaking of Reel Big Fish, they actually did an anime opening. They did the English opening to Rave Master. No lie.

Can't wait for the Mob Psycho reactions! The intros are a trip but I love them

Only watched your reaction to the first opening so far - plan to finish the video obviously, but one piece is such a big series to me. Before watching it i was like "Oh overrated, too long etc" but now that im caught up (1117 chapters later) ive realized its much too short. a life changing anime. most of the big scenes arent the fights, or transformations, but some super hard hitting quotes and backstories. You've said that you already feel behind on life, not being able to run that 2nd channel, so i dont expect you to watch or read it, but if theres ever a portion of your life with more free time, i recommend reading it. a wonderful piece of literature as a whole, one of the greatest stories ever written. I hope the best for you in your career and everything! Heres some wonderful quotes from it "I devoted my entire life to becoming the World's Greatest Swordsman. I made my choice, so I'm the only one who gets to call me stupid." - Roronoa Zoro "When do you think a person dies? When a bullet from a pistol pierces his heart? No. When he's attacked by an incurable disease? No. When he eats a soup of deadly poisonous mushrooms? No. A man dies when people forget him!" - Dr. Hiriluk "Everyone has things they can do and cannot do. I'll do what you can't do, and you do what I can't do." - Sanji "While they may execute me, I won't die." - Gol D. Roger

Oh yes, my favorite One Piece character, Sagashi Mono

People that say One Piece is mid haven't seen it

❤

What was your favourite opening????

41:20 something indeed happened

1:09:35 this op is a One Piece special celebrating the Anime reaching 1000 episodes

The entire One Piece manga is written by a single man Eiichiro Oda, and no, it's not "mid" by any means, it's actually genius, especially the characters, themes and world building. The anime has a lot of weaknesses, mostly because it's an adaptation in the form of a weekly television show, meaning the pacing is often glacially slow.

If you want to watch one peice at your own pace, please allow your viewers to choose certain episodes where you record your reaction. Because we all want to see your reaction to certain episode😊😊.

He was so done by the end lmao

There's only two opening musics that feels kind of sad and they are this way for a purpose. You * must * watch it to know for yourself. Nevertheless this anime is a rollercoaster of emotions... You go from happy to rage and then you're suddenly sad, but then you're extasiated and then happy again.. PS.: This series is composed in arcs and, excluding the One Piece (the treasure) storyline, each arc is like an anime in itself... I think this is how it can stays relevant through the years... It started in 1999 and is not finished to this day.

Bro looks so tired. You okay bruh? Hey man take it easy, enjoy One Piece if you do ever watch it. If you're interested, do try and react to The Breathtaking World Of One Piece (unless you already have). Will give you a nice sense of why we like it so much. And heck watch the 1st 40 ish episodes if you really wanna get into it. 37 is when I got hooked. Most of us did haha. But ye go at your own pace. I subbed, hope to see more content from you.

Happy series? one piece is very dark which delt with every theme, just cover up by the jolly outlook

Opening 2 has a lot of eurobeat/eurodance style to it

you should react to Detective Conan op 1-58 and the anime has 1123 episode at the minute

One piece is the greatest of all times. The story of one piece is based on the history of this world in the Middle Ages where history was changed. You may not know it but we are all waiting for Nika or should I say icxc Nika

one piece is a slowburn anime. Slow start (still very good tho), but once u get pass 230, u wont be able to drop it

Is this a reupload i swear i saw this before

The early openings has like no connection to the early arcs. Which mah confused people. I fele like they were just focus on making an opening and do random catchy openings and then in the later openings they start taking it seriously

To be honest i have watched many animes that people call "the best" But none of them even comes close to one piece wether it is naruto bleach dragon ball or any of the animes that people call "the best". Sure it is long but after u watch it, it will be too short for you

Til this day ...no one knows what the one piece is 🤷🏿‍♂️

33:33 My favorite moment haha

Good job man 😊

Please do the openings for detective Conan too? I know it's too long but only a few ytubers did that

one piece is just diffrent the creator can inretduce a charcater in an arc and he will still be revlenet 800 eps later and there alot over 1000 charcaters in one piece and the story is so easy to follow, the end goal is to find the treasure called one piece but the adventures are the island they go to the way there in one piece there is a sea called the grand line which go around the whole earth the one piece is at the end of the grand line and there are alot of lslands between and acentrues to go on each island is diffrent with weather culture the people the race everything is unieuq there are also the powers you saw on the video for example its why luffy can strweach beacuse he ate the gomu gomu no mi devil fruit which let him streach like gummy devil fruits are super rare and each got some super power like fire powers light powers turn into an animal or even some weird ones like turn into a werable jacket when eating one you lose the ability to swim (the one piece world is 90% water)

Is this a repost? I believe I've seen this video before

Instead of letting them cut your videos, overlay 8bit versions of the song. I have seen a few reactor’s using 8 bit versions and its fine for us. You still get to hear the whole song and we get the tune. I hope this helps with your future videos.😊

One piece is up there for the title of best anime ever, together with the other Big 3 (Naruto & Bleach) aswell as Dragon Ball and Pokemon

If you don't react to the episodes and wanna watch on your own time, you can do/upload reviews on the series by parts (by story arcs). People still watch those kinda videos. 😊 If you're up to that kinda content.

It is definetily one of the best animes out there if not the best, the only inconvenient is the pacing in some parts. You shouls react to Hunter X Hunter endings, every single one is sooo good.

You remind me of Oscar Isaac 😂

Can you reaction anime fate music: 'fakeit laco', ' last stardust' and 'i beg you' songs? They're bangers❤️‍🔥

have more 2 openings more!

U lost me when u said the word cartoon 💀

Can u pls react to all openings from initial d

React to Black Clover openings, they are very good.

Not greatest anime, greatest story 😁
