One Piece

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD (plus this is a paper that I had to hand it so it will sound weird):


One Piece is the key to the secret garden of overwhelming emotions that mentally scar one inside forever. It is an anime that provides a variety of overwhelming emotions that paralyzes one mentally and physically. For instance, a very special scene in the whole 674 episodes made mentally impaired everyone who watched the whole anime. To begin, one needs to know the drama of the scene which started before this masterpiece of a scene. It all started with the long war between the Pirates and the Marines who were racing over to the Grand Line where there is a final treasure that the famous pirate Gold Roger left behind. Through hopes and dreams, the two brothers, Ace and Luffy, become pirates and leave in separate ways. Later on, Ace ends up in Whitebeard’s crew which is the strongest pirate crew in the whole world while Luffy becomes the captain of a new crew he made, the Straw Hats (because his straw hat means a lot to him). Speeding forward a bit, Luffy becomes separated from his crew after losing an unfair, mortifying fight against one of the strongest people in the world who was working for the government. Thus, this left Luffy all alone to face his own hardships and misfortunes of the most touching and melancholy scene in the whole anime: when he finds out Ace is captured and to be executed by the Marines. This masterpiece of a scene begins to show its beauty when Whitebeard’s whole crew and powerful allies come to a showdown with the most powerful people the Marines have. This intensity and suspense is greatly escalated when Luffy joins the ultimate battle because Luffy represents hope when it comes to this anime. Eventually, Ace is freed because of Luffy and their reunion, smiling faces, and teamwork is just too outrageously emotional that it would bring tears to one’s eyes. This temporary ecstasy and delight is crushed right when Ace takes a hit for Luffy and has an enormous hole straight through his body and all of these appalling events happen right in front of Luffy. This tortured feeling of shock, anger, and bitterness worsens as Luffy begs for help, whispering at first and then screaming with an obvious tremble in his voice. This scene was dreadful in comparison to all the other heartwarming times in the anime but it impacted the anime so much that it scars the mind of one who watches it. After this scene, there is a finale of Ace and Luffy and how they survived in the forest with mountain robbers by fighting all sorts of creatures to get stronger. Each second one watches it, the deeper the mental wound of Ace’s death stabs in. This is because it represented the bond of Luffy and Ace’s brotherhood and how thick their connection was with one another, causing the viewers to mourn and grieve with Luffy when Luffy starts crying and screaming over Ace’s death. Thus, One Piece is an anime that causes one to experience emotions from deep inside their heart, inflicting great impact on one’s life.




For the pepole who didn't watch or read One Piece yet, it is about a boy who ate a devil's fruit that gave him the abilities to stretch as if he were rubber. You can only know what the abilities are after eating the frunit but some people have books that identify the fruits and its abilies. The boy's name is Monkey D. Lugly and his major goal is to become the best pirate ever by retrieving One Piece, the major treasure that everyone wants their hands on. The treasure was left by the legendary pirate Gold D. Roger who told everyone about the riches left there before he was executed by the Marines. Luffy's will never fails and he keeps on getting stronger on the way with the help of his strong crew named the Straw Hats. It's namenamed the Straw Hats because Luffy lives his straw hat from a legendary pirate who saved his life when he was young named Shanks. Luffy promised Shanks to become the best pirate ever when he returns the hat which is another reason why he wants One Piece. The fights are EPIC and the number of episodes currently are all worth watching. It is an action and comedy anime so Naruto and Bleach fans should come along and watch the awesomeness of One Piece.
