Let's start:
- similar artstyle: true it can be seen, and a simple motivation is that Hiro Mashima (Fairy Tail's author) and Eiichiro Oda (One Piece's author) are of the same generation who grown up admiring Akira Toriyama (Dragonball's author). Rumors are that their styles were so forged by their worshipping Toriyama; this of cours makes works of both of them share a similar, very cool art style and character design.
- special powers: in a Jump's shonen manga those can't miss. Characters with awesome strong incredible powers are everywhere in both series. In One Piece we have devil fruits which give to their users incredible abilities, while in Fairy Tail we have mages which obviously do use their own magic spells/abilities.
- action: another big part and genre that both series do share.
- purposes: friendship is the main theme which makes an important bond between the main characters in both seasons.
- heroic scenes: One Piece and Fairy Tail do share quite a lot of very awesome heroic scenes.
- female characters: both authors wanted to give to their characters some strong power and/or personalities, differently from many other shonen series where the main female is just needed there to be saved and/or making comical scenes.

Those, and many other, are the shared things by both series, but the above listed are surely the biggest points which deserved to be mentioned.

So, indeed if you liked One Piece you could give a try to Fairy Tail, or viceversa.
Although, while manga series have both a very good art style, when it comes to anime One Piece's animation quality is cured more. read more

It's impossible to say that Fairy Tail isn't similar to One Piece...
Main Character of both Shows are quite alike (powerful but kinda idiot). The whole Adventure-style plot of both anime's (manga's) are very similar.

The drawing style of both anime looks very alike. The main character is a powerful yet a dumb and therefor a funny person. Both anime got the "Nakama" factor.

One piece is about a boy name luffy who becomes and pirate and heads off to find one piece the great treasure and does whatever is necessary for his crew in the other wise.
Fairy Tail, a guild for mages, we follow their story as they face any challenge and adversity. Each member of Fairy Tail will do whatever they can to protect what they cherish the most; their friends. A truly noble goal.
Overall both of the animes are almost the same just with a few substitutions for there powers example

Fairy Tail is very similar to One Piece because both main characters cherish their friends and believe in the concept of Nakama. Both mains would go to the ends of the earth for their Nakama.The comedy/humor aspect is also the same. 

The only real difference is that One Piece has Pirates and Fairy Tail has Mages.

Besides the other the 35 recommendations for this anime, the main reason why Fairy Tail lovers should try One Piece is because of the characters and the atmosphere.  The two main protagonists (Natsu from Fairy Tail and Luffy from One pIece) are Comedic and Cheerful.  The personality of one character mirrors the other character perfectly.  The overall atmosphere of the animes are similar due to the art, music, sounds, and characters.  

In short:  Every time I watch Fairy Tail, I always think about One Piece. 

report Recommended by RevolutionZeal

First off, both are based on long shounen manga series, so they follow a bunch of story arcs in addition to the main goal. The artstyles are quite similar, with characters looking very lanky and lots of wild and colorful animations. Both also have a general theme of friends/teamwork/nakama, with the main teams of the series (Team Natsu for Fairy Tail, Strawhats for One Piece) always working with and fighting for eachother.

Both shows are based on friends and making your own family with those friends. Main characters of both shows continuously grow stronger to help their friends. The groups of friends from both shows are all a bunch of misfits who somehow all get along.  

report Recommended by Jay_Brief

Perhaps the most done rec in this new season, Fairy Tail and One Piece! The first and most obvious similarity, is STYLE. The character drawings, emotion-depicting faces, and character personalities are very similar to each other which is due to the fact that both creators went to the same art school! Luffy and Natsu are both clueless about what goes on around them, but both are overwhelming powerful when serious. Both storm the word "NAKAMA," and care deeply for their companions, close, if not closer, than family. The most common similarity are the eye-pop comedic faces. Whenever something very surprising or unexpected pops up, the characters' eyes will pop out of their heads. Storyline doesn't have much in common, but both are long-term (OP's longer however) and both are equally comical and epic. read more

Fairy Tail, just like One Piece, presents the power of friendship and the will to never give up. The characters in both series are similar, while both shows emphasize comedy scenes. The main difference is the world these heroes live in. One Piece takes place in a world of pirates and treasures, Fairy Tail in a world of magic and monsters. I'd say Fairy Tail is another version of One Piece.

This feels like this most obvious rec to make, but I recently started both of these long running adventure shonen. The vibes and tone of both shows feel very reminiscent of each other. Anyone who's seen both of these shows will likely immediately pick up on the parallels. Not to say that they are equals in terms of quality; but I'd say if you enjoyed one you will likely get some enjoyment out of the other. 

report Recommended by JVskunkape

Both Fairy Tail and One Piece are shounen animes and have a lot of similarities. The art quality may resemble one another(both authors have the art based off from dragon ball's author) and the way they draw the characters in both are really similar. As for as I've seen, people like Gildarts and Shanks, Rufus and Cavendish, and there's more out there where they look alike. The one major thing I think they have in common are that both are about a group of people who go through adventures fighting together and have a strong bond with one another. Also, theres a lot of emotional scenes based on what they go through as nakamas which can really get you all teary or even to the point you'll bawl. Based from my point of view, the things they do are completely different such as different goals for each character, but the storyline for both really resemble each other to the point some of the arcs are related. On top of that, really enjoy each and every one of the openings and endings they show for each new arcs that are airing. I think whether you like Fairy Tail or One Piece, you'll like the other since they have so much things in common. Definitely rate both of them 10/10!  read more

Out of all the shounen anime there are, Fairy Tail is probably the most simmilar to One Piece.  Both have some kind of powers (magic/devil fruit), caring for frends, fights as well as comedy. Main characters are very simmilar. Both are airheads with love for food, but can get very serious when their friends are in danger. 

report Recommended by abystoma2

One Piece and Fairy Tail are almost pretty much alike (my opinion). But I like Fairy Tail better though because the arc isn't that slow like One Piece's.

- One arc of One Piece lasts about ONE year. An arc of Fairy Tail is about 3-4 months in average. 

- The goal of the pirates of One Piece is to travel trough the sea and to achieve One Piece treasure. Fairy Tail doesn't necessarily have a big goal, but they do sign up for 'works' to achieve money to make the guild better. But there is one main character who has a goal: his name is Natsu Dragneel The Dragonslayer and his objective is to find his father Igneel. There are also two other Dragonslayers who want to find their mother and father but their goal isn't on high priority as that of Natsu.

- In One Piece the main characters are pirates and it goes about pirates. In Fairy Tail the main characters are mages and it goes about magic.

- In One Piece, the most important style of it is explore the world and achieve One Piece. Therefor they must go through hardship like battles, adventures,etc...
In Fairy Tail, the most important style of it is FRIENDSHIP. Thanks of that, the power of guild flows. There are many other guilds who are rivals against Fairy Tail (which is very awesome) and there are also many Dark Guilds. They are threats of Fairy Tail. Of course in One Piece, there is also the so-called 'nakamapower' but it isn't that remarkable as in Fairy Tail.

- I find them both awesome, but like I said: I find Fairy Tail better than One Piece because of one thing: slow paced arc in One Piece. 
Those animes are very adventurous, funny and sometimes mysterious. There are many EPIC battles. You will meet different characters with different strengths, skills, and together they make a good team.  read more

Like, Naruto or Bleach. This anime is quite popular (in my opinion). Some characters are actually similar with one piece characters. Like Luffy and Natsu who are both main characters and both have the same personality (silly yet serious when they have to be), they both love their nakamas and think highly of them. The characters are not only the same thing, but there is also genre. They both contain adventure and comedy. It's the same "style" I should say. Both of them just makes you want to laugh out loud and just want to cheer them on during fights/battle scene. Also, they both have "series" should I say? or Arc. (in One Piece) They both contain lots of "chapters" and meet new friends along the way. I will definitely encourage you to try this one out! read more

Similar characters; if you have seen One Piece, you can pretty much tell that some characters have similar personalities as with Natsu=Luffy Loke=Sanji Gray=Zoro
timeskip; this also happens in the middle of each series where the characters have some change of appearance and become stronger
Lore; the lore of both series are very deep and mysterious 
Friendship; both seem to have this close-bonded trait with each member, but in Fairy Tail, friendship makes them get powered up in fights, while in one piece, it's more strength and skill based

Hunter x Hunter (2011) addpermalink

Personally i'm a huge OP fan since more than a decade and i have to say that it took me a while before actually giving a try to HxH 'cuz i wasn't sure if i would've liked it.. But. Woah against my expectations i really did like it more than i thought! Truth is that after i gave it a try, i couldn't stop watching it. 
The more i was seeing it and the more it was giving me the same feeling that OP gives me. They have the same vibe and have the power to let you enjoyed more and more, this way your curiousity level also grows bigger and bigger by each episode. They really share a lot in common:

• first off: well, the genres, as you can see they both are Shonen, Adventure, Action, Superpowers genres.
• both main charas would look the "typical protagonists of a shonen serie" but they actually are able to surprise you, the more you get to know about them and their personalities.
• interesting enough, both protagonists' fathers seems to play a very important role (i would even dare to say "legendary"), plus obviously are very strong and full of mystery
• both stories are about dreams and all that takes to our main charas to realize them. In HxH, obviously, Gon wants to become an hunter; while in OP Luffy wants to become a pirate, but not just a normal one, he wants to become THE pirate King. In addition, their companions of both Gon and Luffy also have an ambition/purpose they want to achieve as well.
• both series face the adventure with a long Journey splitted in many arcs.
• still, both give a huge importance to friendship.
• let's not forget to mention that both of them are quite cured, as of course, like the protagonists, also the other characters in the series are intriguingly developed for the best together with their backgrounds, their actions and personalities.
• last but not least, the presence of the superpowers genre won't disappoint you either because "from big powers come big... battles!", yes, indeed lots of cool battles and the more you find out of the stories and the more you'll get interested by the way to fight! In HxH we have the "Nen" (Aura) and in OP we have the "Haki" (Ambition).. you'll really be amazed by the coolness of the battles!

As you can see a lot of stuff is a common point for those two series.
The only thing left me to say is: I seriously recommend both series, because they both worth it.
If you liked one of them, you'll probably love the another as well.
Because afterall, they both share one last significant thing: greatness. read more

Both revolve around adventure and a charismatic MC that gains many allies along the way. If you are a fan of shonen (hell, if you are a fan of anime) then you should watch both of these.

Both are shonen anime that each have their fair share of adventures and fights. Both series have hyper, dumb, and funny main characters that are very interesting. The art in both series is also done very well.

While One Piece starts a lot slower than HxH (I'd recommend picking up at the Water 7 arc if you're impatient), and while its overall world and magic system is a lot more crazier and cartoony, it's definitely got the same sort of landmark effect on the heart, with tons of emotional moments, epic fights, characters that stay with you, and arcs that only get better and better as you go on.

Both main characters (Luffy and Gon) are looking for something in particular and it is said at the beginning of the series.

Side characters have somewhat similar goals. This can be seen mostly with Leori and Nami since they both want money.

-Both shows (in my opinion) start off decent and get better and better to the point of awesomeness. 
-The concept of nen and haki are similar, plus both are introduced later on in the series. 
-They are your typical shounen anime where the protagonist protect his friends and get stronger. Both have superpowers(main characters are very strong and op, altho luffy is more op then gon) 
-characters aren't that similar but the relationships between characters are
- Both have the friendship theme, though it's more present in one piece
-both are currrently airing and prob won't end anytime soon

The best Battle Shounen already created. The best seller! 
Absolutely no one overcomes this One Piece. 
What enchants me most in this anime is a story that is exciting making you reach the point of tears. 
Its plot is perfect, everything connects, making their fans create several theories about the story. 
His universe is infinite, thus making it all happen or anything appear following its own logic.
His pace is slow and it is one of the causes of many episodes, but worth every minute spent with this masterpiece. 
Another strong point is the comedy that will surely make you a good laugh.

Gon, the main character, has some very strong similarities to Luffy when Luffy gets serious and the variety of powers and abilites of characters in this anime is similar to One Piece's devil fruit power variety. There are some AWESOME fights in this anime just like in One Piece and you will feel connected and cheer for the characters just like you do for the Straw Hat crew. Hunter x Hunter 2011 and One Piece are my two favorite anime. Please this anime is a great use of your time; it wont disappoint.

After watching the masterpiece one piece the only other thing that gave me the same feel was no other than hunter x hunter. In both of the anime the protagonist is a reckless guy who goes out on a journey to gain something that they want. During the adventure both of the protagonists meet many different kinds of people and go through different experiences and learn from that. Both of the series are extremely enjoyable and are worth watching.

Originating in shonen jump, and serialized practically a year apart, both mangas have been adapted into successful long running animes that have an excellent cast of characters, world building, and fantastic adventures.

They both still have plenty of stories to tell in an ever expanding universe, while still keeping pretty consistent rules previously established, power levels, foreshadowing, never forgetting characters, and building off of the huge casts to create more amazing arcs. Most of the time, both shows are character driven.

While both are shonen, both are so tonally different, yet they go in hand in hand with the way they blur the two sides of good and evil - Hunters being hunters, seeking out everything the world has to offer, and pirates, going against all odds to find what it truly means to be free. One Piece and Hunter x Hunter (2011) both are written differently, but in a way still have a lot in common. 

I guess the closest thing I can compare them to are Peanut & Butter haha. Anyways, give both of these stories a watch and even if they may not hook you quickly, stick with it and it'll be worth the wait. Don't skip arcs because a lot of tiny details said maybe even 50 or 100s of episodes ago usually turn up 200x more important in the long run. read more

Both anime create a huge world with many fantastic aspects from wild creatures/people to unusual places. Hunter x Hunter is shorter but has higher quality episodes whereas One Piece spreads itself over God knows how many more episodes but does not loose in telling a great adventure story. Both give you different emotions (joy, sadness, thrill, hope) overtime as you become part of the main crew. One Piece might be harder to start due to the number of episodes but every arc is worth it in the end.

Similar adventure style with lots of action, and mainly features around the protagonist (Gon in HXH and Luffy and his crew in One Piece). Like how Gon's goal was to become a Hunter etc, Luffy's goal is to become the pirate king, so they both have that similar sort of drive as characters.

Hunter x Hunter is an amazing shonen anime about a boy named Gon who leaves his home to take on one of the toughest jobs in the world, being a hunter. No, he's not hunting deer or rabbits, he's looking for his dad, whom he hasn't seen since he was a baby. On the way, he meets Leorio, Kurapika, and Killua, who help him on his journey.

I've loved this show ever since I discovered it in 2014. It's got great animation, compelling characters, and great story arcs. If you like the first Hunter Exam arc, you'll probably like the rest.

The feeling of adventure are both prevalent in One Piece and Hunter x Hunter (2011). Both are based on manga published in Weekly Shōnen Jump, and are both long anime. Luffy and Gon have similar personalities. However, One Piece is more comedic than Hunter x Hunter (2011), which is more serious. Both are also some of the best long running battle shōnen anime out there, and fans of one are sure to like the other.

Usually we can see that whatever the genre of an anime is there is a bit romance in the story line. But Hunter X Hunter and One piece are anime where there is no specifically romance and both of the mc are adventure lovers. They work and struggle towards their goals.
Like Luffy is a boy who wants to be a pirate king and Gon is a boy who wants to be a great hunter to know why his dad abandoned him for being a hunter. That's all. Both of the anime is quite good.

The emotions in both anime hit close to the heart in a way I have yet to see in other battle shonen to the degree of talent that they are down in either of these two animes.

The depth of worldbuilding in One Piece is a step above the greatness that exists in Hunter x Hunter, so there's a bonus in that regard.

If you enjoyed the sense of family that exists in HxH between characters like Gon, Killua, Kurapika, and all the other loveable characters, you get that same attachment with fellow Straw Hat recruits and even what appears as minor side characters at first still manage to get you caring about them.

The action in HxH is great and honestly hard to beat, but that's not to say One Piece doesn't have its fair share of action, while not on par with HxH, they are still a treat to watch and have gotten better as the anime progressed.

Sure... there's a large difference, but both are on the masterpiece level both are very comedic and there is action in both animes .
Do know that the first Episodes might be slow or average for many people. So it could be for you as well. 
But it will improve a lot afterwards.

If you are a fan of long series that just gets better over time or want to get into one these are the series for you. These series start with a small cast that gets bigger over time and become lovable, they both have amazing and well-writen backstories that further develop characters the messages and themes are relatable and parallel real life and history and can be life-changing, cool fights and hype moments that give goosebumps, and many things get connected story-wise, also hits your feels many times so be prepared to shed some tears. Some of the best comedy you will come across as Gintama parodies many series and some situations that they end up in are just ridiculous.    read more

Now I watched Gintama first but because of Gintama I decided to check out One Piece this year and so should you *cough.. (read the digital colored version of the manga) because it has obviously better pacing and stunning visuals.
One piece has humor so does gintama 
The whole aspect of nakama and crewmates ride and die for your family which is always welcomed
The world building and how everyone some how is connected is sick I love this aspect with both shows bringing characters back from the past. Gintama is over however, I haven't seen The Final movie YET but even without seeing it I'm over here crying over trailers since I love this series sooo much and One Piece as well any time soon in 5 yrs possibly ending which already thinking about is sad but I expect a world shattering war with every person they met will unite to fight with Luffy which is what we are already seeing with Gintama so watch Gintama and read Digital colored One piece manga it's amazing don't cheat yourself out of masterpieces they're both long but classics.

Gintama and One Piece have one main thing in common. Humour. To be precise, awkward humour. While Gintama is filled with way more comedy and One Piece is filled with more story and action, one can also find a second similarity between these two anime which is that both of them give you a lot of hints about things that are going to happen in the future and also glimpses into the past and revealing the truth slowly.

Dragon Ball's directely or indirectly influenced many different series over the year, but what stands out regarding One Piece? Well, One Piece is often referred to by Western Fans as the big three and is only one of those three for the original Manga on which the Anime is based on to be continuing at the point of me making this recomendation. On top of this, Dragon Ball also plays an influence on the wacky humor found on One Piece, although the creator of One Piece definitely took the elements which are similar to Dragon Ball and made them his own.

Story wise these series are completely different. The main reason they are similar is due to the characterization and humor. The main characters of both are especially similar because, personality wise, Luffy and Goku are almost completely in sync. They both have a naive charm about them, they both think about food even at the oddest times, and they both go after what they think is right. Luffy is a bit more stubborn, but if you enjoyed either one of these series because of the main character you'll likely enjoy the other.

The main character personality is very similar, the importance of all of the characters (whether they be minor or main characters), the attachment to all of the characters, the good voices and voice acting (in japanese), the good background music that is fit to every detail when it is played, the complicated storyline where everything ties together so well and everything makes sense together, and even the way that OP doesn't have a common drawing style, neither does DB (not that they're the same style or anything).

One piece is about pirates, and Naruto is about ninjas. Shippuuden is the continuation of the series Naruto, and it takes place after a 2-3 year time skip. One piece also has a time skip but way later in the series. One Piece wasn't split into a second series like Naruto.

Do you wish that the characters in Naruto could be better fleshed out and more interesting? Are the fights not varied enough for you? If so you'll love One Piece. There are nine main characters that have each been fully fleshed out and have unique and powerful backstories. Every fight is unique because of the existence of devil fruits which grant the user rare powers that only they posses. You will fall in love with the characters. I have yet to run into a boring episode and there are over 560 episodes now. Just make sure to skip a few fillers but thats all pretty standard for a Shounen Anime. I like this show better than Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. Give it a shot; you'll come to love the cartoony art style. The storyline is excellent. read more

report Recommended by NyeLink

Maybe this is different from One Piece
But there is a point why I recommend MHA
1).Deku's Struggle (MC)
For fans of Shounen Anime, of course we really like the development of the main character to become stronger

2).Friends
Deku's struggle is not alone, he is fighting together with his classmates

3).Rivalry
Deku also has rivals and this is also one of the reasons why Deku really wants to become strong

4). People who are admired
Deku admires the number 1 hero in his country

5).Strength
Although the way to get power in these 2 anime is different
but the concept of Quirk powers with Devil Fruits is almost the same
What's different is that in MHA the power is usually inherited from heredity and in One Piece the power is obtained after eating a devil fruit
and in MHA almost everyone has powers, only a handful of people don't have quirks

6).Character design
You know the character designs in One Piece, right? There are many strange characters in the One Piece world, as well as this MHA, which is almost the same and makes me laugh HAHAHA
but maybe in MHA the characters are still better than in One Piece HAHAHA

and a little extra: Deku (Izuku Midoriya), a character inspired by One Piece, namely Coby
Yes, we know Coby's struggle to become strong
This was said directly by the MHA mangaka, Kohei Horikoshi
-------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------
Almost the same as Luffy, he always gets stronger with each arc

This anime series is not only similar to Bleach but in fact I think even more than you wanted...

Similar type of humour and action, good-only-for-fight-but-a-very-good-guy main char. 

report Recommended by Seviexe

Both shows are about fighting, and the desire/need to become the strongest. The fight scenes are well done, and a bit drawn out in both shows. However, if the length of a fight in either show doesn't bother you, then you will like the other. 
There is also a fair amount of humor to both shows. The main characters in both shows are funny and likable. Also, in both shows there is great comedy relief chacters (kon and usopp). 
A thing to note is that one piece starts very slowly, but if you give it time it will get you hooked. Also, even though it is at 364 episodes, one piece, according to the creator, has been completely planned out, all the way to the ending, so there is an ending plan, they aren't just making stuff up to keep the show going. I only say that because many people find that with long animes they get redundant. read more

Both of them are ongoing series, and the animation of Bleach just kicks ass (at the current episodes, 200 and 450+). The story's done great and the characters are amazing, the development of the story and characters are done great too.

One Piece and Bleach are both shounen anime's, have a lot of episodes (and are still airing). They both contain adventure, action and comedy. One piece is less serious, has more comedy and therefore bleach is the more serious type of those two. Bleach plays somewhere around the presence while One Piece is completely mixed. I'd say it's a few years back but they already got bazooka's for example. Also here again, less serious. Both the main characters have a special power. Ichigo (Bleach) is a Shinigami and Luffy (One Piece) is a Rubber Man.

If you're a big fan of Zoro because of his sword fighting skills, you might actually want to watch Bleach. This is mainly because both shows have a grumpy character that carries around a unique sword, or swords, and holds mass amounts of power. Ichigo Kurosaki finds himself being a substitute reaper for Rukia Kuchiki; an injured reaper who cannot continue her duties. Ichigo is not your average hero, but we find him saving the day—even if it is a little begrudgingly.

Both of them are long shounen series with the major themes of growth, friendship, teamwork, and loyalty.

While one of them aspires to be the pirate king and collects crew mates, the other heads toward being a leader in an infamous branch of the mafia and increases the size of his "family." As more episodes go by, the series and characters grow to become more mature and serious; the series start off kind of slow and overly immature, but once they get going they are both really interesting and rather addictive.

Both stories follow the protagonist moving from island to island to become stronger and finding their objective (the One Piece and Radiant)

In both cases, the protagonists are seen as evil/the bad guys merely for who they are.
> In One Piece, Luffy and his gang are seen are evil because they are pirates and pirates are 'evil'
> In Radiant, Seth and other sorcerer's are seen as evil because they are sorcerer's

Also, there is a semblance in the antagonists.

Love Live! School Idol Project addpermalink

While they are two very different anime at a first glance, both are incredibly similar in characters.
Both share quite a large group of protagonists who go on the same journey to achieve different goals and find themselves, often with relatable backstories along the way. Both crews are known for the chemistry between each other, the constant comedy of each character and "nakama" aspect of friendship that are as close as family, if not more. One group aims to become great idols, while the other aims to become great pirates.

Some characters are very identical, especially both protagonists (Luffy and Honoka) who are airheads that lead the group with their grit and whimsical nature, who follow their hearts and emotions rather than ever caring about logic.

Many of the character traits are usually played off in a very comedic nature, but are sometimes used for serious moments, and can even be a character's pitfall.
Robin and Kotori both have a fallout with the team at some point where they leave for a small period of time during a serious story arc, while Robin and Eli both have similar personalities after adapting to the group (and both are supposedly Russian). Nico and Usopp are notorious liars and often claim to be the leader of their group or the greatest idol/pirate, as the crew members ignore their antics.
Hanayo and Chopper were at some point incredibly shy and both pressured by the protagonists to join the crew, and both have a bubbly nature where they find things awesome or cute. Umi and Nami can be kind and high-spirited, but are known for their seriousness and keeping the protagonist in check, usually in a comedic nature, scaring the protagonist when they get really serious. Nozomi and Sanji are both perverted and share a love for cute girls, and both can even have a mysterious nature sometimes, although their (Nozomi and Sanji's) personalities are wildly different outside of those.

For most of both shows length, both shows crews consists of nine members lead by the bubbly, child-like protagonist, and is nearly always promoted as such. If you enjoy the chemistry between the characters, the comedy and relatable nature and love between the crew members above all else, you may enjoy the other anime as well. read more

Great action, funny, awesome fight scenes.  Overpowerd characters, cool attacks etc. And if you're liking the animation in One piece, try One punch man. In my opinion  One punch man has the best animation i've ever seen.

 One punch man is a much shorter serie, it doesnt have as good as a story as one punch man. Not as great as character development as one piece does. BUT, one piece is one of a kind. No serie out there that I've seen comes near the adventureous and unique story of one piece. So dont try too hard finding a serie that does. Try One punch man instead and if you were looking for great comedy, great fight scenes and awesome animation. You're golden. 

Thank me later ;)

-Both have main characters that are very good at what they do
-However neither of these characters is the best yet, and their few losses greatly impact the plot
-Both of them feature a considerable amount of fanservice that manages to not feel forced and flows naturally
-Both of them focus on the bonds between your team mates overcoming an impossible wall (Polar Star Dorm vs Central/Straw Hat Pirates vs literally everyone)
-Neither of them have the buildup like other shonen. Characters are very strong to begin with and are presented with increasingly strong enemies to push them farther. However, it is executed in a way that makes it a goal, by setting a limit beforehand. (Elite 10, Yonko) read more

This might seem surprising, but there are a lot you will find in Xros Wars that you find from One Piece. For example, some parts in Xros Wars might seem really cheesy or lame, but there are parts give you a heartfelt feeling similar to what could be found in One Piece vice versa.

If like me, you're a fan of Roronoa Zoro and the epic sword battles that take place in 'One Piece' then I would definitely recommend that you watch 'Samurai Champloo'. In addition to one of the characters (Mugan) being voiced by the same actor as Zoro, the swordplay and personalities in Samurai Champloo make it a great watch from start to finish.

They both have the same brand of humor.  Additionally, both can draw you into the emotional moments of the story.   Luffy is on a quest to become King of the Pirates, Ippo is on a quest to become stronger (aka, win the world feather weight championship).  The composition, the mix of humor and seriousness, is the same.  It doesn't really have similar setting and world , but that feeling you get from both anime are the same.  Both are as great of a shonen series as the other.

Shingeki no Kyojin addpermalink

I am actually surprised that no one have recommended One Piece to people who liked Shingeki no Kyojin!

One Piece and SNK are very similar, despite the difference in pacing, amount of tough violence, number of episodes and overall tone. The story of the two are about accepting the world, beating the unbeatable opponents and taking care of your loved ones. As tough as SNK is, it has always been about the dreams of those characters, their struggle to live and succeed, to be the "best worst generation", something that One Piece is always so good at!

I've actually started watching One Piece after I've watched 2 seasons of SNK, so I was able to catch the moments where you can just tell that the mangaka of SNK liked it so much that he took some of the ideas from OP and reworked them in SNK.

As of violence, I'd say that the violence in SNK is not the lustful one, it's there to move the story and not to satisfy someone's desire for blood and gore, the Titans action doesn't strike you as disgusting because of their perfect visual design and the way SNK shows the violent things. One Piece might not look like it has any tough moments, battles at first but the series progresses throughout its course and things are never the same.

One Piece and Shingeki no Kyojin are these two anime that are always going to make me happy and I do encourage you to take your time and enjoy One Piece. No skipping any of the episodes, no rewinding; just try to sit back, relax and get used the the way One Piece tells its stories. I can promise that if you will be fully open and patient, One Piece will most likely be the best thing to happen with you in terms of anime. read more

Honestly, I feel like there's a lot of similarities between JoJo and One Piece, I didn't realise it until now, but now that I think about it, here's a lot of similarities:
- The characters have surexagerated and crazy personalities
- the stands and the devil fruits share very similar powers such as shiro shiro no mi and bad company
- there's dumb and weird characters, but also very serious antagonists such as dealers, mafia bosses, characters that want to conquer the world, to be the perfect form of life
- There's a VERY STRONG friendship between characters, while one piece is a little less mature and talks about ''nakama'' and friendship like this, JoJo talks more with adults and teens about a friendship like cowboys and gang partners, but those two friendship are made of trust of each other, no matter what he says to do, and their friendship in both animes are built alongside the journey. read more

Ore Monogatari!! and One Piece both have the same kind of fun humour and stories. You get involved in the story and it's easy to get excited! 
While One Piece is a shounen adventure story, Ore Monogatari!! has a completely different set of genres; shoujo romance. It's not your typical shoujo romance, mind you, it's full of genuine comedy and good characters. 

So, if you're watching One Piece and craving a shoujo that doesn't feel like All Those Other Shoujo Animes™, try Ore Monogatari!! You'll be positively surprised! 8~D

JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 4: Diamond wa Kudakenai addpermalink

Both animes are 「B I Z A R R E」 at their own ways.
World construction is really wide.
Power can get really random sometimes.


P.S.: I tagged my favorite (animated) JoJo part but it's not the first one. You can check the order at the anime's page

Dragon Ball Super addpermalink

Both are popular, long lasting shounen franchises that are still airing new material in 2017. Both anime balance boast a fine blend of comedy and action, with the main characters sharing a few similar traits. For instance it could be said that both Luffy and Goku love food more than anything else- except for the lives of their friends/nakama.
Toei Animation handles both series.

"kanata no astra" and "one piece" are two gems in adventure genre. in fact,both the series have a very wonderful settings which is really easy to get into. besides, if you like animez with lots of wonderfully fleshed-out character,particularly a strong and dependable MC who jokes around all the time but gets serious when needed, i promise you won't regret watching these.

Anime: Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka addpermalink

The main leader protagonists of these series (Bell / Luffy) are in pursuit of adventure. They are able to draw friends and comrades to their side rather easily. They each form small groups (a party / a pirate crew) in order to go deeper in their respective adventures. They get extremely stronger as the series progresses, and also have a personal strength benchmark that they're aiming for (Bell wants to catch up to Aiz, while Luffy wants to surpass Shanks). Both are disgusted by their own weaknesses. 

Lily (of DanMachi) and Nami (of One Piece) also share some notable similarities in terms of, among other things, their initial actions towards the main protagonist and their respective backstories.  read more

Both have the pirate romance in it's true sense. People pursued by the world government put pirate flags on their ships and sail freely across the seas, be it with water or stars, and try to do what's right. Crew members of both Luffy and Herlock tend to have sad backstories, related to the enemies the crews fight.
