Reading 28 Volumes and getting to the start of 29 in 24 hours is impresive especially considering your condition of reading the story. Any way good job Mark, the next time you read it, make sure to savour it and enjoy the ride. The foreshadowing is Insane It usually takes me an hour to read one volume, some take less & some takes more time. I have read One Piece 54 times (but it was only at 21 volumes when I cought up the first time, ca 22 years ago and when I reread it we got to 23 volumes here in sweden).

[@carsanwitt]

How does it feel having caught up and not being able to binge? I watch the anime so I know it's different, but I really don't want to catch up to it, I just... I couldn't watch it 1 episode a week. It just felt wrong. I discovered One Piece with the french dub and fansubs like 20 years ago, and I loved being able to watch it whenever, a couple of episodes at a time. But I caught up with the anime around before Water 7 and just dropped because 1 a week felt artificially slow, and episodes are very short. Took me years to pick it up again, but then in a couple of months caught up all the way till the time skip and it felt so good. Stopped mid-Sabaody or early Fish-Man Island again because I caught up to it and 1 episode a week felt weird again. Another 6+ years before restarting, and I loved picking up after the time skip because it felt like the story aging with me, it's such a great point to take a break. Watched all the way to Whole Cake, and binging felt right (like 2-6 episodes at a time, but not forced like Mark here, took me a couple of months, it was natural.) Honestly now I love this way of catching up to it, taking a break between arcs when I feel like it. But I do dread catching up to it again cause it becomes a forced break for me...

[@Kreacher3]

​@@carsanwitt I'm sure the experience would vary, but I'm actually enjoying the week-to-week! One feels impatient, of course, but that impatience is shared by a massive fanbase. Going through the memes that are churned out every chapter or watching reactions and theory videos is a lot of fun and gives you a sense of community that, for me at least, makes up for the ease of binging being lost. Watching the anime side-by-side helps as well because Toei's been going all out giving vision to the panels in a way that almost feels like Oda is comfortable not elaborating too much on fights or effects and leaving it to the anime while he focuses on the plot. So, while you're waiting on the next chapter, you can catch up with the anime and see how they animated that incredible scene that you wish Oda had dedicated more panels to depicting.

[@criscrosxxx]

Yall have so much free time

[@Antelieris1]

I will never, EVER recommend someone tries to force themselves to consume anything in this fashion, let alone One Piece. Whenever someone says they are starting the series or they're making good progress, I always remind them to not be afraid to take breaks from the series. Go read/watch something else if you're feeling even the slightest bit of burnout. It IS a lot to get through, so pushing yourself too much can make you hate it for reasons unrelated to the story, and I'd rather people take a measured approach to catching up than push too hard and ruin it. Pretty much all fans of One Piece give up on the "It's too long" thought process somewhere along the journey, because we all realize that you never enjoy a story because of its ending, you enjoy a story because of the journey. Are you having fun with the story? Yes? Then One Piece is doing its job, and that's all that matters.

[@kuroser353]

Yeah like, *especially* with One Piece you're gonna need breaks I needed a week straight of rest before starting the post time skip material because I'd been reading for like 5 hours straight from post Enies Lobby to post war This ain't a bingeable story

[@hannibal-rb3go]

I got through all 6 parts of JoJo anime in like 3 weeks and then stepped away for over a year before starting to read the next part. Burnout is real and even if you enjoy and want to finish what you're going through. Your brain will tell you to do something else if your overdoing it. Listen to it

For anyone wanting to start and catch up to One Piece, take it slow. Being “caught up” is not as important as you think it is.

I read the whole of one piece earlier this year, and at a comfortable pace reading a few hours per day and then stopping to do something else, i completed the whole thing in about a month and a half.

As I understand it, the fight between Luffy and Zoro happened because Luffy got drunk (let's remember that he doesn't drink alcohol and with very little amount of sake he got drunk) that's why he didn't listen to Zoro's arguments.

Pair that with the fact that you have already experienced this narrative and your drive is for a challange to prove something more so than from newfound joy it would make sense why you felt so damn tired after doing it for so long. Maybe some breaks might have helped too. That said. Fun video. I like how its literally journey just like it is in the story. Its just about enjoying something rather than finishing it

[@Gaia_BentosZX5]

It's taxing. Especially of those 24 hours, you'll find details completely missed from prior reads or has been glossed over by the anime entirely. Challenges like this is why I'd rather take it slow with reading books, and why the humble bookmark is a vital tool for any reader. Just like with save files, bookmarks keep track of where you are in a story you are currently reading. Especially a story as expansive as One Piece. By Volume 25, the most rational thing to do at that point was to put a bookmark on page 19 after reading nine volumes up to that point to take a break. This is was also the very lethal blow that did the superhero comic book in: no one had the time to keep up with 25 event comics going on at once, along with the tie-ins to that specific event on top of the lack of variety needed to distinguish the various amalgamations of heroes of these events.

Reminds me when I picked up One Piece over 10 years ago, didn't felt the need to consume it at a fast pace, I want to think about it as a roller coaster, there are chapters you go slow and steady other moments the story in some arcs captures you and takes you for whirl and the best part early one is that it's very likely you see it through to the end (of that arc.)

back when your videos reviewing OP came out, they convinced me to finally give it a shot, as i had been postponing it due to the length... and having watched 800+ episodes of detective conan years back, i didn't want to go through that kind of experience again (although in hindsight i realized conan was rife with filler episodes that could be skipped, or that i could have just read the manga). alas, it took me about 3-4 weeks at the time as i had nothing to do while i waited for the next semester of university to start, almost every day i would mealprep in the morning, sit down, read like 50-100 chapters take food breaks in between, and on some days i would just skip the whole manga reading part and do something else entirely. looking back, i could have been a bit more patient with how fast i went through the story, but in the end i never felt like it was a drag or tiring, my eyes simply hurt me from staring at a computer screen reading a black and white manga... seeing this video in my sub feed i immediately said "no way he even got through a quarter of it dude... no way". and indeed you barely scratched 300 chapters. to anyone out there that still isn't convinced, take your time with it! a friend of mine has been reading one piece for the past 2 years and he's only doing 4 chapters a week, and i intend to do something similar by reading 1-3 chapters a day once i get to re-reading it again (i'd done so in the past 4 years but each time i sort of rushed through it when i shouldn't have, missing a lot imo). instead of seeing it as a task, make it a hobby, something you look forward to doing every time (every day for me) think of it like your parents/grandparents reading you a story slowly every night till you fall asleep, continuing where you left off the previous night, or like coming home from school to watch the new episode of dragon ball z... you didn't have to marathon an entire saga in a day or even in a week, take it at a comfortable pace and let yourself enjoy it bit by bit, if you feel compelled to keep reading, give yourself an extra chapter that day but no more... but beware cause oda is well known for making the next cliffhanger worse on your heart than the previous one! and Mark, take care of yourself my dude, never undertake such a project that hurts your health, get as much rest as you can in the next couple of weeks, we love you and your content!

I'm still not entirely caught up with One Piece, near the end of Wano, but i have been watching off and on for the last few years. And i everytime i come back to it, i am reminded just how much i love this story. It truly is the adventure of a lifetime, and one of the best stories ever written

[@witheburning8756]

1:48, Stop !! Don't read your manga this way !!! It makes me suffer, poor thing...

[@HollowKonpaku]

You know… I always interpreted Luffy being really upset at Whiskey Peak because he was drunk. From my understanding it was the first time he had drunk alcohol and the agents had possibly laced his drink even more.

[@DIYisntDead]

Mark renacting his least favorite bits from Manga is perfect cringe short content.

[@madmanmit2618]

As someone currently rewatching the One Piece anime (English dub this time, I'm half way through Impel Down) I can't imagine doing something like this and enjoying it. With the anime there's at least more forms of stimuli like motion, color, music, sound, speech, etc. But the manga is just small black and white static images. Trying to consume the story that way uninterrupted for 24 hours sounds tortuous and exhausting. Even on my rewatch I don't spend the whole day watching OP, I only average about 10-12 episodes a day since I began in the beginning of august. Taking time to do other things and recharge yourself is vital to the enjoyment of those special things in life. If you're constantly forcing yourself to engage with that thing for hours and hours then it stops feeling special and just becomes a chore.

It is easy to forget how much energy it takes to read. It is a mental exercise and this challenge is the equivalent of running a 24 hour marathon. Good effort, I bet there are plenty of manga that could be read in 24 hours, just maybe not one of the longest ever created.

Is there gonna be an egghead video

Probably after we get to Elbaf

This was such a fun video, a really interesting type of video on this channel. felt really special!

just realized how similar u look to peter capaldi

Wow... never noticed until now, I see it 😆

[@G_Rez]

I think one of the most magical elements of one piece is that you grow with it. Having started one piece around 15 years ago, i can remember where the story was when i graduated highschool. The chapter i read in the dressing room of my best friends wedding rehearsal waiting for everyone to get ready, the chapter i was on when i first introduced my little sister to one piece and put her on her own adventure. And the story isn't done. I'm going to grow more, I'm going to have more life experiences, maybe even children before the story of one piece concludes. There are few mediums out there with the longevity to grow with you across multiple decades. It has become part of my life, a topic of my social circles, a core memory alongside precious moments. And however the story concludes can't change how special that journey has been

[@Aaronrules380]

I mean, the fact that you weren't going to get close to finishing it would have been obvious if you just did some basic math before hand. There are currently 1124 chapters (1125 if we include what's coming out tomorrow), if each chapter takes about 5 minutes to read on average that's over 5600 minutes, or about 93.5 hours

[@go_golden]

woah watch out math genius over here in these youtube comments

[@鹿野修哉-u2k]

in 24 hours, from the start of the timeskip, how many chapters are you able to read? how many arcs can you go

[@jacklomas4218]

I've said this a few times now but seriously, you're the reason I started watching the anime. I watched you review the manga and thought yeah I'll give the show a watch, a decision I never regretted, nor will I ever regret, thank you for that.

[@the_cringe_nerd]

Mark, the mistake you made was seeing how far you could get in 24 hours straight. Should of settled for 4-5, maybe 8 hours per day and then see how many days it would take. And to be fair, it took myself 11 months to catchup in 2020 as well.

WE NEED EGGHEAD REVIEW

Bro I love you! #nohomo All your videos and your personality are just awesome. Can't wait for Daima to start and continue the journey with your videos. Keep up the great work!

[@vanishhero964]

We are never getting that final bleach video review huh

[@IStoleThePies]

He said he'll wait till the anime ends, since he found out Kubo wasn't able to end the manga the way he intended

[@MarianaBello-fq3hx]

Why would there be a final bleach arc review without it finishing? This isn't the first time the manga version wasn't the way he wanted it to be. He also said that the recap films were closer to his vision than either anime and manga regarding Ulquiorra vs Ichigo.

[@IStoleThePies]

@@MarianaBello-fq3hx The stuff about the Ulquiorra fight was a rumor. All he said was that the movie version had excellent direction

[@DreballinArts]

Well, painful challenge or not, your Covid time videos actually did get me to pick up and eventually catch up on One Piece 100 chapters in 2020 and over 1000 in about 2-3 months in 2024.

[@connellychase573]

One piece is a story that isn't meant to be sprinted through doing so ruins the immersion of what the series is and how it will feel you with emotions of excitement rage sadness every emotion you can think the one piece is to long thought is simply people who dont know what they are missing unless you actually read and or watch the series your gonna end up regretting it

[@MaxPaynefan1]

I love the bon voyage lofi used at the end, "you and those dreams are precious in my life"

Nobody disputes this

[@furorteutonicus9045]

thats common sense tho

[@tixelch]

I underwent a similar process recently regarding Bleach, wherein I'd been midway through the Arrancar arc and taking it at a pretty casual pace when my friend announced he was doing a Bleach D&D campaign, which I wanted in on. Unfortunately, since I wanted to play a Quincy, there was no way I wouldn't get spoiled on their lore unless I finished the entire manga before session zero started... In three days. I pulled it off, but I do not recommend speed-reading long-form series like Bleach or One Piece even over the period of a few days, let alone ONE. Props to you for getting as far as you did, man.

[@wenm7081]

I loved that you were truthful about this experiment. Like you said, we shouldn't lose our love for the story want to "catch up" way too fast. Let's simply enjoy!

[@britipinojeff]

I love One PIece, I read it weekly, but I'm a slow ass reader. Especially the newer chapters sometimes have so much going on it takes me a while to get through it compared to other weekly manga I'm reading

[@jppf2192]

the slow descent to insanity is the best arc in this video sorry! XD love the video :)

[@jamieagnad1918]

Mark : *"One Piece doesn't take that long to read."* Also Mark : Blud got exhausted after reading this for the whole day and isolated himself.

[@dashaunmckenzie5357]

Love the conclusion because I think so often people don’t want to read/watch One Piece because they want to be caught up. But there’s no particular joy in being caught up, if anything I miss when I had hundreds of chapters/episodes in front of me. New arcs and places to go every day. It’s not just a journey, it’s THE journey of journeys. “I don’t want to go on a boring adventure” - My Captain

[@halfwaybrooks4202]

Mark. I am 100 percent challenging you. Monday when i am off work i shall be reading one piece for 24 hours. I have reread the series many times and love it enough to do it again. It will be through the internet not physical (unfortunately) but i shall return to opdate you on my attempt. God speed good sir

Leaving this to get notification on when you're back from it, good luck!

I love one piece and even I say this to quick. But I liked because I don't want your efforts to feel wasted. Thank you for the content

When reading the Orange Town Arc, Mark was like that Meme "One Piece is truly peak!" lol

1:46 NOOOO THE CREASES

[@XenithflareGaming]

When I was first reading One Piece, I was a teen deep into my music phase. The Skypeia arc will always conjure Linkin Park's "No Roads Left" from how often I had it on repeat during my reading. It's a permanent part of my One Piece experience now.

[@Redaar98]

What a ride! Nice video again!

[@hyperionsama]

This was the first video I’ve seen of yours. So maybe it isn’t a complete failure after all 😊 liked and subscribed! 🙏

[@bubbasgotback431]

I know that "The Real Treasure is the Friends We Made Along the Way" is an old, tired cliché and that no one wants the One Piece to actually be that, but I truly believe Oda might have written one of the few stories where that cliché is so thematically relevant that he could totally end his story that way. One Piece truly is about the journey, not the destination. Rushing through everything and not allowing yourself the freedom to experience that journey at your own pace is antithetical to the series as a whole. This is a great video and it's pretty humorous in the irony that the point of the video is to do something with a series that nearly explicitly asks you not to do that thing.
