I'm Ranking Every Single ONE PIECE Arc (Tier List)

[@Ihasnotomato]

Drum Island being docked points for having a bad villain but Baratie always being at the top of people's lists despite nobody ever mentioning Don Krieg or even remembering him is hilarious to me

[@_Travey]

Baratie >

[@eliortakala9223]

It’s not the villain issue, its more about the story and the background of it.

[@obvv7714]

Because the villain isn’t the only factor

[@CeceMelchor]

The villain was meh, but the way luffy fought the villain and the story surrounding it was amazing. Like there was one moment where luffy got hit multiple times and he admitted that he was intentionally getting hit to wear out the weapon. I felt the villain contrasted well in baratie, but warpol was just trash and awkwardly placed in the narrative against luffy as someone who just needed to be beat up and was always going to be beat up easily by luffy. Don krieg came from the at the time innocuous grand line and so it was a mystery as to if luffy would pull it off while the stakes were high b/c if he failed they’d die and it truly situate them as a lackluster pirate group incapable of surviving in the grand line. Where as if luffy got beat by warpol we’d all just stop watching the series because it’s garbage.

tbh jaya is underrated with world building. Right after luffy defeats bellamy we are told and shown so much! We see whitebeard, doflamingo, kuma and blackbeard for the first time and we learn more about how warlords treat the world government. Speaking of governments, we see THE FOUR GOROSEI FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

[@Theguywhowanders]

this is criminally underrated

[@UCantNinjaMe]

Honestly This tier list is valid asf. I agree with mostly all of your placement of where each arc goes. W tier list

[@arjunski]

This is by far the most valid OP tier list ranking I've seen.

[@thetwopunchman]

dressrosa should definitely be S tier, it was an absolutely amazing arc imo even though it was a bit long, it was definitely worth it

[@ChillBlinton]

I’m in the same boat. It was the first time the crew had to split up to accomplish their goal and in Dressrosa they had to rely on a bunch of others to help who eventually become the straw hat fleet. It was really cool seeing them find others to work with upon finding a common goal and have lasting relationships afterwards. Not to mention how the world changes in response to taking down Doflamingo. Easy S tier arc imo

[@xxlordtinchoxx9015]

there is just too many characters that dont amount to nothing both in doffy´s family and the pirates, its mainly an issue of the anime but it feels like too much time is dedicated to some characters. the core of the story (toys, kyros, doffy, fujitora, sabo,etc) is still great but there is just too much mediocre stuff cluttering it up

[@sasuke12320]

ye i feel the same people said it was too long but the backstory of corazon and law and doffy was soo good and the world building that dressrosa buult was amazing even the sabo reavel and him getting the fruit was sooooo so good.

[@xxlordtinchoxx9015]

@@sasuke12320 the highs are some of the best in the show but placingly in S tier alongside water 7 or saboady just feels off IMO when there is so much mediocre stuff cluttering everything up i do see the point being made for anyone placing it on S tier tho

[@davidschlichting5203]

Dressrosa might be the arc with the biggest differential between Manga and Anime. In the Manga it's top tier, in the Anime it was so insanely drawn out, with lots of way too long unsubstantial filler scenes and decent at best animation.

[@TheFailedPhantom]

When I watched Alabasta I did get kinda bored of the countless episodes of them traveling the desert it was a good arc but a few of the episodes could’ve been condensed in my opinion

[@margon9181]

As someone who watched One Pace, that definitely didn't affect me, but I can see how an anime purist would dislike Alabasta.

[@pogethedoge]

I agree. The first 10 episodes were rather forgettable, but I understand why they were put there. It really gets good when baroque works starts discussing the final steps of their plan

[@BlackJacked]

That and Vivi not shutting up and constantly screaming. Kind of made me dislike her lol

[@FirethornYT]

Actually, some of those useless episodes like the sand pirates ones are filler.

[@davidp9171]

Most of those desert episode are filler. Hope you noticed and skipped them

FINALLY someone likes thriller bark! It might lack story wise, but the humor is hilarious. Nothing can beat pre TS humor

[@thatfroggyguy]

If Robin docked then oars would've lost immediately

[@fatalcrabnow29]

Thriller Bark is my favorite arc because it perfectly encapsulates my favorite parts of One Piece. Great backstory, great humor, intimidating villains, and a great concept for an island

[@UltimateGamerCC]

17:15 - Thriller Bark is painfully underrated, it's so creative and introduces my 3rd fave Straw Hat in Brook, who easily has the most painful backstory in all of One Piece. i LOVE the Halloween aesthetic and "Nothing Happened" is the Cherry atop the Thriller Bark sundae.

[@vitoradosic9272]

I love how, in your short comment you named everything thats good in that almost 50 episode arc. Do you now see why people hate it?

[@fasihchoudhry]

and the fact that zoro first time asks for someone's help and out of all people he asks sanji builds up the whole wings of the pirate king point when they wins the round without talking to each other after that

[@PrinceDman]

Personally the beginning ruined the entire arc for me, after Luffy agreed to play a game after watching Shelly get shot. The fact that they made half of the arc filler didn't help either. I didn't completely hate it though, as there were some amazing scenes like the Zoro and Sanji tag team against the giants.

I agree with most of the list, but one of my personal favorites Drum Island getting a B just for Wapol is so… ugh whyyy😩!!! Not that I disagree with Wapol being underdeveloped as a villain, but you cannot tell me Wapol distracted you from the nonstop tearjerkers! The Cherry Blossom reveal is the most satisfying conclusion to any of the arcs (up to post Enies Lobby where I’m at). This arc is so clean! If Wapol were a bit more developed, this arc would have been S Tier Plus. I hope the Live Action improves Wapol like how they improved Kuro imo

[@dddmemaybe]

The Syrup Village arc has consistently symbolic contrasts with strong articulation and depiction. If you aren't focused really hard, you'll miss a lot. It's an arc for the sniper member, so it's an obvious hindsight that the entire arc is about spotting critical meanings.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

END - couldnt agree more with the take on Wano, even before Wano began, Oda was building and building and BUILDING the arc up, and the building only kept building as the arc went onward, culminating in a climax that was ultimately satisfying and made me eager to see what all was gonna transpire from here, Final Saga here we come! to Laughtale! Elbaf! and to the End of the World! ...or the beginning of a new one.

Water 7, including enies lobby, is the best arc in one piece. There are so many arcs that are a close second place, but this one for me still has the most memorable moments out of any arc.

[@MonkeyD.Usopp434]

What would manga Skypiea rank for you? I know the anime adaptation leaves much to be desired... but in the manga it is an easy S tier for me because of Noland/Calgara backstory and the Luffy Enel fight. More specifically, how close the Luffy/Enel fight was. I don't think a lot of people remember that Luffy and co. were incredibly close to dying during that arc, closer than I think they came in the majority of One Piece arcs.

[@r.j.tammaro8383]

19:06 I think this especially is what makes the Celestial Dragon punch work. He doesn’t do it cause any of his crewmates or his family or anything, his breaking point is Hacchi. Some random henchman guy from hundreds of chapters ago, because he knows he’s a good person and it’s unfair for him to be hurt.

[@JosueDominguez-g4z]

The syrup village hate from One Piece fans is so unwarranted 💀 Syrup Village wasn’t great, but it wasn’t bad at all and felt better than Orange Town at the very least. I’ve always enjoyed the arc just fine, but I find a lot of people who dislike it were people who didn’t like Usopp when he was first introduced. Personally, I think Syrup Village is actually genuinely good writing wise and I’ve always liked Kuro as a villain; plus, I’ve always been a fan of Usopp. It’s at the very least a C-tier worthy arc 🤷🏾‍♂️

Thriller Bark at A tier is an interesting take. Personally I would put it in high B as Moria as a villain really ruins it for me and his gang is overall annoying. The arc however does have its fantastic moments, particularly in the end with all the Kuma stuff.
