    As a huge #OnePiece fan, I was enjoying it at the get go, but I have to admit that there were some moments where I felt it was slow, but I kept watching because of the way fans talked about it, the moment I felt completely in love with the series was at Arlong Park Arc (ep 31-44), especially with the episode 37, for others is later or early in the story.

    I understand it is scary to get started after seeing the amount of chapters and episodes it has, it takes time commitment, it’s been almost two years since I watched the first episode, and it has been an incredible experience. You have multiple options to start.

    • Read the manga. The source material. Official website to read the first saga for free

    • Watch the anime. Fans complain about the pacing, it was annoying for me at certain moments, but for me, most of the time I didn’t notice it. It has the advantage of being more accessible, I would say, most people will likely watch on a streaming service with the dub in their native language. Watch One Piece on Crunchyroll

    • Watch One Pace. Fan edit of the anime. This is a project that takes the episodes of the anime, and edit them to make them more truthful to the source material by removing filler scene, long reaction shots, stretched fights, fixing certain errors from the original anime (especially from the old ones, like color schemes since they didn’t know or errors that made the final version probably because of deadlines of being a weekly anime since 1999) and removing censorship from certain censored scenes. You can download the episodes by torrent or watch through telegram. Their website claims it 45% faster to watch than the original. One Pace official website

    • Watch One Piece Live Action. Even though it has certain controversial changes that I don’t agree with, I loved how it opened the door for a lot of people to read the manga, watch the anime or One Pace. Watch One Piece Live Action on Netflix

        Huh, so they didn’t fuck it up like they did with all the other anime adaptions? Neat.

        Edit: so anyway, I started watching it last night and IMO it’s better than the anime!

          Nope, it’s a really great adaptation. The changes they made were mostly to make it work better in live action, and a few story changes I actually really liked since they improved on aspects of some characters back stories.

          And really, it’s juts a lot of fun. My girlfriend who doesn’t watch any anime absolutely loved the live action version, and is impatient for season 2.

        I had a good time watching too, not saying it was bad, just I didn’t like certain changes, but I understand why they had to do it, it is a different medium and if I’m not wrong, they didn’t have much time.
