It does sound like that at first, but the way the mysteries are all stitched together in the massive world building that has become one piece currently, is really what keeps us fans watching. For instance there's a character in the series who has been silhouetted since 2017, they appear to be the main antagonist or at the very least one of them, yet we have no idea what they look like or anything about their background. We only get to see them every hundred episodes or so. It keeps the community guessing with fan theories, and the anime is chock-full of stuff like that. Though One Piece can be a slow burn I will admit, the writing is what I love mostly about it since it's still the same author doing it.
Regarding Maruo Suehiro, definitely check out his manga if his surreal stories and awesome art style appeal to you. It's really dark though, some people I've talked to refer to some of his work as "misery porn." So be warned it's not for everyone. I like the opening surreal illustrations to DDT. Two of them are on display in my profile bio under "Show Manga Illustrations."
I'm well myself, have you read anything as of recently? I understand you're in uni so there's not much time for that.
I'm more than halfway done reading Blade of the Immortal. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Also looking into Maruo Suehiro's work a bit in between. I've finished a short story collection, as well as a one chap by him. [DDT] [The Dancing Dwarf]
Oh I know what you mean, sometimes finding decent manga scans can be quite difficult. Which series were you looking for back in the day?
I'm not sure if you know, but it got a season 1 that finished airing in 2020.
She doesn't look anything like a bimbo. She's just a clutz, jeez.
L8 as fuck, but her and the sequel characters are no good. The sequel in general isn't really good imo aside from the improved artwork and animation. Also, it's short and rushed as fuck. Also, Takaya Aiba (I don't like his nickname "D-Boy") miraculously recovered for the most part for god knows what reason (I might be forgetting some details). Also, the whole plot involving Dead End was inconclusive (or it felt that way, I might be forgetting something dammit memory).
