1. I used to be a One Piece stan or a One Piece fanboy. I realized I had to tone that down a ton, mainly to see it for what it really is... Entertainment.

2. It's gotten too long. I mean it's over 100 volumes now. That's absurd. Not even the likes of Naruto, Bleach, or Gintama are over 80 volumes.

3. It sucked since the Whitebeard War Saga. Many people say that it sucked since Part II, but it sucked even before that, in my opinion, although the Saga is definitely a lot better than Part II. I would even go as far as to say that the East Blue Saga is better than the Whitebeard War Saga.

I mean the very first arc of the Whitebeard War Saga, the Thriller Bark Arc, sucks... So that's a clear indication that most of the Saga sucks too. Impel Down is a poor man's Enies Lobby as well, and Marineford is very overrated.

The only Arc in the Saga that's any good at all is the Sabaody Archipelago Arc, but that's still not enough to save the Saga as a whole.

One Piece was at its peak in quality during the span of the Baroque Works Saga, the Sky Island Saga, and the CP9 Saga, and admittedly those are some quality Sagas, but not enough to make me like One Piece as much as I used to.

Only bad part of the Whitebeard War Saga was the actual Summit War itself. Bad power chains (Crocodile lol) and the manga portrayed it like Ace went bipolar and committed ritualistic suicide by letting Akainu bait him into being killed by him

Part II OP is bullshit though. Part 2 Naruto at least functions well if you see it as a demolition show and comedy

ace's end was fine to me. He felt like an outcast his whole life and was defending the few people who'd ever accepted him. Not weird really.

Jojo is trash.

I concur with Jojo being trash.

I can understand if people think the first two parts are trash, even if I disagree, but Part 3 and Part 4 are both great. I haven't watched or read Part 5 or Part 6 yet.

Thought you were into it? You read a bunch anyway, right? It went downhill or you just have insane patience for bad manga?

Part 5 and 6 are abysmal. 3 and 4 are mediocre at best and are honestly just boring for the majority. Part 1 is pure shet and part 2 has some good moments.

Don't forget to mention the art is awful. The Mangaka can't draw

Part 6 has been ass for the first 100 chapters. Will take a miracle for it to be even somewhat good.

It looks ugly not because its cartoony, but because its visually unappealing.
