I am so hyped about this movie and I’m glad I took the time to see it in its entirety. We learn more about Uta’s departure from the crew and what really happened to the people of Elegia.

However, WHO THE FUCK DOES UTA THINK SHE IS BY ATTACKING LUFFY IN SUCH A WAY?! HOW DARE SHE DO THIS TO THE FIFTH EMPEROR. SPEAKING OF, I GEEKED OUT WHEN I HEARD THE CROWD REFER TO HER IN THIS WAY! JUST UTTER BADASSERY FROM YOURS TRULY!

I wonder if we’ll see Uta again in any future One Piece episodes and I’m honestly shocked we got to see Gear 5 (this movie came out before it so that’s a shocker). I’m surprised that Kid wasn’t present in the movie at all. I’m glad we got to see so many familiar faces, such as Law, Bartolomeo, Koby, Helmeppo, Fujitora just to name a few.

The power of music against the power of Luffy’s badassery was a sight to see. This movie is so amazing that I’m at a loss for words and can’t fully articulate just how amazed I am by it.

One thing I gotta mention is how much Uta was tweaking through the majority of the movie by trying to force everyone to live in her ideal world, and by doing the unthinkable, TAKING LUFFY’S STRAW HAT! NOBODY TOUCHES THAT OR TRIES TO TELL LUFFY TO GIVE UP BEING THE KING OF THE PIRATES!

So many emotions…

Sorry the movie was terrible . People didn't come here to see La La Land but to see a normal One Piece movie . This should have been an One Piece film with some non canon elements (in this case the singing) not a non canon elements movie with some One Piece references. The only reason this was successful, is because of the influence of the One Piece franchise and this comes from a big fan of the franchise . Not mention the elements that are still not in the anime for someone who watch this movie chronologically after episode 1030 of the main series and I don't understand how someone who is one piece fan and not a a tourist can call this movie peak.

A really nice movie! even in 2024 Uta seems to be a popular character despite not being canon!

I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats.

This wasn't a bad movie by any means, but the whole lore behind the Demon King seemed very out of place and I can understand why some people think Film: Red was soulless.

I guess I was expecting more. The story was super simple, Uta as a villain with her magical powers to overwhelm the characters that we have seen growing in power. It just was off to me, not emotional. Shanks was ok, but it's no canon, I cannot take anything.

It was boring and repetitive.

I went into the movie with only having seen like the first 300 Episodes of the anime and just basic knowledge of the full cast of the anime and i think lore wise this is fine to be able to grasp most of the movie easily.
Nevertheless watching the movie was really hard to watch. The cast of characters was reduced down to their most basic attributes without any depth or developement.
The animations were fine to good during the normal movie scenes, but especially during the music bits the cheap looking CGI really hurt the aesthetic of the otherwise quite good visual represenation of the singing.
The music and singing were phenominal but having this hard of a cut between the voiceacting and the singing both volume wise and just the voice itself is really jarring.
The plot is extremely basic and shallow and at any point you know whats going to happen since it's so clichee - but I am probalby just not the target audience for that.
Bad movie with a great soundtrack.
