I have partially understood…

what else makes One-Piece so hard to read.

I said the stuff before, well here’s some-thing else as I’m watching & then reading.

You see Eiichiro Oda draws one big panel and has multiple reactions & dialogue exchanges in the same panel.

You might have noticed.

Like:

Person: Yo. What’s-up?!
Rude person: STFU!!! (nonchalantly
Person: WHAT DID YOU SAY?! (exaggerated reaction)

Most manga-ka might make this more than one panel, but Eiichiro Oda might have this all in the same panel & this is only dialogue between two people.

Not only that but some-times (or at-least I noticed once now), there’s completely random comment by the same character, which might seem out-of place after a dialogue is said. The anime separated the 2 pieces of dialogues so it doesn’t come-off as weird.

That's pretty interesting. Is it always in the same order (like right to left or top to down)? If it's not then I get confused sometimes.

I’m not sure. Sometimes I get confused by the order too. Like it makes no sense or some-thing.

Do you have any examples you can post?

It happens a-lot. Early Skypiea for example. Sometimes dialogue is written, but you’re not sure who said it because the dialogue-bubbles are all-over the place. I’d definitely say you can see it in early Skypiea.

I think it gets a lot worse later on with some of the overly cluttered post-timeskip spreads.

What makes it hard to read is the stupid story and the terrible art of Dragon Ball wannabe, one-piece-of-sheeeeet

Yeah I found some examples. Usually the dialogue doesn't seem to be important in these cases at least.

There are spreads where I have to read the panel more than once. That's not exactly uncommon with manga for me though.

I had this issue with Naruto as well.

DragonBall is very easy to read on the other hand.

Here’s a random one. It’s very random but it’s the only one I can find right-now. They meet Conis & Sanji says something & then Nami pulls his ear all in the same panel. It’s little, but stuff like that where there’s multiple pieces of dialogue or reactions in the same panel. If this was some-one else it’d have been two panels I think. Not to mention that panels are so full of dialogue from every-one (every-one says some-thing) and like I said some-times you can’t tell who said what because it’s so all over the place.

Part I Oda’s panel composition was actually better than most Mangakas, for example. He must have gotten burnt out by Part II.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

1st panel of page 4 of chapter 243. First Usopp says “Oh by the way…” or something & then all the other speech-bubbles are seemingly pointing to Zoro, even-though it doesn’t make much sense. Last panel of that page too. Who is saying “Cloud End…?!”?

 

[Warmmedown]

Post the panel? It's ok, Shueisha can't hurt you.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

I can’t.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

First panel of chapter 244, page 8 too.
