I had never read or seen any of the anime version of One Piece. Literally had zero knowledge about it except seeing characters in peoples avatars over the years.
Had no desire to watch the show, never been a big anime fan (except dbz and pokemon as a kid). But heard that it was getting praise from one piece fans and just people in general so decided to check it out.
I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next season. I understand why its such a popular ip for so long. I didn't expect there to be as much depth as there was and touching on general societal issues. Luffy is a joy to watch, and the actor does a great job making him so likable.
Overall just found it to be a very fun and enjoyable watch. I'm a sucker for world building and I think they did a great job at that. Really looking forward to exploring the world even more.
Probably wont ever check out the manga/anime because it is not really my style, but I'm happy I checked this out. I started the first episode Friday night and ended up finishing it Saturday afternoon
Went in thinking I'll just watch the premier and see how it is.
