Maybe it's a bit late, but this year I decided to catch up with One Piece. I have seen 296 episodes so I think (and hope) I am eligible of writing a review. My native language is not English so bear with me if I make mistakes of any kind. Also this is my first review. If someone would ask me to review this show in one sentence I would tell him the following: "This show is a masterpiece". I have to note that this review is solely based on my opinion and everyone has the right to have an opinion should that be bad
...
or good. I am not saying that other people are wrong. So, let's start the review...
Story
The story is the greatest I have seen in a anime. It has a bit of everything: drama, comedy, action. At first it may seem that this is a comedy anime, but the more you watch it the more surprised you will be, because of the seriousness this show can deliver when it is needed. It has a perfect balance between comedy and drama. The story can be so deep that at some point you may even shed a tear.
Art
Despite of all the negative things people said about the art, I, personally really enjoy it. I can say that from the first episode the art was great in my opinion, but it keeps getting better and better after each episode. After I saw some flashbacks of the first episodes I was really surprised of how much the art developed since then.
Sound
The sound of this show is really good. The OST (original soundtrack) really adds a good feel to the story. At the very dramatic moments it makes it even more dramatic, which is a really nice thing.
Character
One of the best thing in this show are the characters. The makers of this anime really made a good job bringing you close to the characters. I feel like I am on their ship, sailing with them and when they got some problems I can really feel their pain and suffering. The voice actors do a really great job (I watch it in Japanese version, I don't know about the English version, because I haven't seen it) and every character is unique in its own way.
Enjoyment
The enjoyment of this anime is outstanding. I could never get bored of it, because it keeps getting better every episode. Eiichiro Oda, the mangaka, does a great job in writing awesome stories with nice plot twists.
Overall
Overall this anime is a masterpiece. As I said earlier, I didn't write any review before this, but I felt this anime really deserved one and I wanted to express my feelings about it.
