Jaya is unironically my favorite arc. It is one of the few arcs that is actually about Luffy. Usually Luffy is doing things for the sake of his friends or for stopping injustices.

ironic, because when reading through all at once I think Dressrosa's 2nd half is paced much better than Wano's. It manages to keep up a constant feeling of forward momentum which just sucks you in, and which the Raid on Onigashima really struggles with once the fighting gets started.

[@ChaosHuntsman]

I will make one argument for Drum Kingdom being befitting of the A tier or higher despite the rough orientation in the manga. This is the first time we see exactly how far Luffy will go for a friend. In prior fights he always went all out, of course, even nearly dying three separate times two of which he Smiled through, and he's always been a fearless character. But he refused to even fight back on the Chance his extra motion might hurt or kill Nami in her weakened state, something he's only ever done on one other occasion to date (with a completely different premise granted), climbed a mountain bare-handed, bleeding, frozen, and by the end barely conscious, on death's door facing his only chance of life when chopper investigates, and the only thing he can think to do is ask him to save his friends. Obvious over explanation is obvious, but I strongly consider this to be a paramount example of Luffy as a character, both for future plots and overall motivations.

Long ring long long is fine in the Manga. But in the anime the Davy back fight is twice as long.

[@n00bowser]

22:08 The One Piece Wiki may count the Post-Enies Lobby Arc as a separate story arc, and that might be based on some kind of fan consensus, but if you look at it in terms of story structure, it is obviously just the epilogue of the 120-chapter long Water 7/Enies Lobby Arc, just like Mark says. The shorter arcs leading up to Alabasta had very obvious beginnings and endings, but the transition from Water 7 to Enies Lobby (The Sea Train) is best viewed as a second act action sequence which keeps its steam (pun partially intened) well into the start of Enies Lobby, culminating in the climax of Act Two, the burning of the flag. I doubt Oda would consider these separate story arcs. As a sidenote, the only other gripe I have with the Fanon Story Arc division is that I think the Post-War/Grey Terminal Arc is clearly just the long epilogue of Marineford rather than an arc in it's own right. Otherwise I'd say it fairly accurately catches where one story ends and the next begins.

[@fleskhjertafan93]

It's all fan made Oda doesn't separate the story by island arcs he separates them by sagas. On this topic I don't see why people separate water seven and enies lobby, they are literally 2 halves of the same story. I will be quite annoyed if these same people insist on separating wano and onigashima as separate arcs.

[@MugenHeadNinja]

This is why I always pair Jaya/Skypiea and Water 7/Enies Lobby + Post as if they were one arc, I think they flow and feel better than way, at least for me personally.

[@n00bowser]

@@MugenHeadNinja I can see the argument for Jaya/Skypiea as well, but personally I consider them separate, because the Strawhats leave behind the sidecast of Jaya as they blast off into Skypiea. Likewise, Enel has no impact on Jaya despite being the main villain of Skypiea. (contrast Water 7/Enies Lobby, where you have the same villains and sidecast for the whole 120 chapters). I guess the only real criteria is whether or not the arc feels like a self-contained story with a beginning and an ending. For me, the answer is yes for Skypiea but no for Enies Lobby. And by that logic, I guess would lump Impel Down together with Marineford/Post-War as well, despite the different setting.

[@MugenHeadNinja]

[@handgun559]

I do want to say about Thriller Bark; like Skypiea, it's themes are becoming much more relevant in the current arc. Thriller Bark reinforces how this is an adventure story first and foremost. This is about exploring the world, building and developing your world view and character, and a theme is "one must have an understanding of the world if they want to influence it." And in ThrillerBark Luffy doesn't have a world view that can compete with Moriahs. Battles in One Piece are battles of philosophy and ideals and much as strengths, and in ThrillerBark Luffy is fundamentally wrong about the world. He isn't ready to lead it, because he doesn't understand it. When he's fighting Croc, he keeps getting up because Croc is wrong. Slavery, bad. But Moriah is just doing his job as a privateer. He provides a fundamental job for the stability of the world, and Luffy wants to destabilize that. Luffy doesn't know what that would do to the world, and it arguably doesn't need done. And that's why Luffy lost. Moriah, however pathetic and defeated, was right. And what's better, the man who fought Moriah and taught him his understanding of the world, is the same man Luffy is currently fighting. Moriah was trying to teach luffy what Kaido taught him, and Luffy lost because Moriah was right. Luffy didn't understand the world, but now he does. He saw the fall of a Yonko at Marine Ford. He knows exactly what this means for the world. And now he's fighting the man he was metaphysically opposing in ThrillerBark. This is amazing writing. Making Kaido the background development of Moriahs character, and having that be where Luffy loses a battle of philosophy, and then having Luffy fight the person who beat the person who beat him to show how much he's grown?!?! Amazing stuff. I hope this made sense at 3a.m.

[@umbris9409]

Thriller bark being in C is upsetting to see, but completely understandable. It's not for everyone.

And without the anime, what did the foxy pirates part add positively to one piece? I cannot think of anything and an afro-luffy is not a good answer. I thought foxy pirates were just a bad filler arc. It is a bad arc, because it drags on and has no tension and it is filler because it does not do any worldbuilding, character building or progresses the story in anyway.

[@aboundedsumo7984]

@@oguzcanoguz5977 So, there are a few things i can say about your statement. Firstly. A lack of tensions does not necessarily have to be a bad thing. If everything was tense all the time, it would get stale very fast. Long land is supposed to be the calm before the storm that is water 7 and Enies lobby. Secondly. The concept of Davy back fights being common knowledge among pirates gives us insight into certain parts of pirate culture. It reinforces the fact that the way the straw hats work as a crew is not at all the standard in the world, and that many other captains beside Luffy (and some other) would not hesitate betting members if it meant a chance at stronger crewmates to give them a greater chance of survival in the grand line. Thirdly. Character wise, it reinforced the fact that this crew is like family to each other. Choppers cry that he refused to sail the seas with anyone other than the straw hats, or Luffy’s determination to not lose a single crew member. It was all to set up some of the themes that would be played in water 7 with robin. Finally, it set the standard that luffy is not going to be able to win every fight so cleanly anymore. He was barely able to outlast crocodile and was able to take out Enel efficiently, but he won against foxy thanks to a fluke. as much as I can meme on foxy as a character, he did put up a good fight against luffy in his own shrewd way. And had luffy not gotten lucky with the mirror shard, he might have gotten even closer to losing than ever before. He then proceeded to lose outright to aokiji. Almost every major fight after foxy leaves luffy either unconscious or unable to continue without the aid of his friends. Aokiji, Lucci, Moria, Magelan to name a few. It is what sents in motion the idea that the crew might not be ready for the new world, a message which is set in stone in Sabaody.

You have read one piece, naruto and dragonball.

What I personally would love would be a video where you analyze music from dragonball, one piece and naruto and compare them to each other. Each of them has its own music type, it is totally different, so that might be interesting. Would one piece music work for dragonball? (etc. etc.)

[@libra2753]

An old comment from me about the Fight between Zoro and Luffy at Whisky Peak: For me the fight between Zoro and Luffy was very important. Luffy thought that Zoro disrespected the locals and didn't appreciate hospitality. Luffy is the captain and has to "punish" his friends when they make mistakes. Of course it wasn't a mistake by Zoro at the end of the day, which Luffy didn't know, but it was about a very important topic: hospitality

[@hazmatt8349]

Yeah I think we've seen the lengths Luffy goes for people who feed him. I don't know if it was out of character or a way of Oda showcasing this aspect. Also Luffy still had a lot to learn about being Captain as we learned in Water 7/Enies Lobby. Or this is my head canon to explain a plot point, either way.

[@danielghorayeb2263]

It was just an excuse to have Zoro and Luffy fight, it was as was said in the video one of Ora’s rare mistakes of characterization. It wasn’t a good luffy scene. I think I remember in one interview Oda talking about this and saying that he was being pressured to have Luffy and Zoro fight which is what gave cause to that scene

[@Maxpain350]

It was because we know that Luffy trusts his crew he didn't believe that Nami killed ussop why he would believe that Zoro attacked them for no reason?? It was dumb and out of Luffy's character, he didn't even believe that Robin betrayed them in water 7 and Robin was an outsider and not really someone you should trust

[@kartishbhadauria997]

But the problem arises that quite similarly in Arlong Park, where Johnny AND Yosaku tell that Nami killed Usopp Luffy straight out *refused* to believe them(even though he knew that both of them were good people as he had travelled with them for a short while) because he had faith in his "crewmate" which nami did not consider herself since the begining and even betrayed them by taking away their boat in baratie yet Luffy chose to have faith in Nami and listen to what she has to say. Now back to the whiskey peak fight, luffy just asked who did it and some random guy he met just that night told him zoro and Luffy instantly went into a rage strong enough where he admittedd he was trying genuinely to kill zoro when asked. Even though he knew zoro longer than nami(sure not by much but my point still stands). I mean he even heard and accepted zoro's vow of not losing ever again(in baratie) solidifying them both as partners in crime till the end of time so yeah I passionately(as evident by how long this paragraph went) agree with mark's point that this fight was heavily uncharacteristic of Luffy.

[@Lupinemancer87]

Good to see that TNM have good taste, the way he actually liked the funny and extremely humorous Long Ring Long Land arc

[@sedativeman]

I want to add a small critique of what you said, or rather maybe just my own perspective. In Whiskey Peak, Luffy attacking Zoro wasn't as out of character as you think. Throughout the Alabasta Saga, Luffy is constantly learning about the outside world and how to act as a better captain. I think Oda wanted us to see this as Luffy learning to always trust in his crew by making the mistake of being naive and trusting someone else over them. We all make that mistake in our youth so it's fitting Luffy make it too. Overall, I really like Whiskey Peak so perhaps I'm biased lol.

[@samt3412]

It's just really odd after Arlong Park. We saw how much Luffy's trust went with Nami, despite the latter having betrayed the former. Seeing a much lesser reason cause Luffy to fight his first mate is really weird.

[@uknownada]

I think the thing most people miss about that fight is that, really, it's a gag fight. It's a gag fight in disguise of a serious fight. I didn't realize this until I started reading it with friends. It's actually really hilarious the way Luffy overreacts and how so focused Luffy and Zoro are to each other that they're not even noticing the "real" villains of the arc.

To me my two favorite arcs so far are Thriller Bark and Impel Down arcs. Thriller bark really made me get back into reading the manga and Impel down is madly underrated. I remember going to a nearby Barnes and noble after school and smelling the coffee and ambient lighting while reading one piece. Ahh good times

[@sirius_raspberry]

This really made me want to say a thought I've had regarding wider OP discussion for a while, I really hate the way that people separate arcs of the series. There's so many points where it feels like pieces of arcs are arbitrarily cut apart. The Water Seven saga is the most egregious case of this. Separating them into Water Seven, Enies Lobby and Post-Enies Lobby implies that each of those are complete stories on their own, when they're in actuality all parts of one whole, and it's really frustrating to see that be the common consensus. It's the same way I feel about people separating the Android and Cell arcs of Dragon Ball.

[@owain1077]

Absolutely agree, it feels really weird and quite frankly wrong for people to separate the arcs just because “oh they left the island” yeah but it’s still the same story arc so???

[@john-olivierlukama1548]

But arcs and sagas are different. For example, the android arc and cell arc may be seperate but the wider community brings both arcs together and calls it the android saga. Similarly, while water 7, enies lobby and post enies lobby are all seperate arcs, the OP community calls it the water 7 saga

[@RealDugBur]

I know I am really late, but this can easily be fixed by separating into sagas. Water 7 saga and Dressrosa saga are both great examples because they have their connected arcs (W7, EB, PEB and Punk Hazard, Dressrosa). Summit War saga is also a good example because it doesn't rely on any of the arc names for the saga name

Man, I'm really not a fan of breaking down arcs into "post" arcs or into smaller ones. People often split Water 7 and Enies Lobby, but it's all one story arc. Luffy and Usopp, Robin, Franky, and Merry stay continuously relevant from the beginning of water 7 until the end of Enies Lobby. The city of gold and ringing the bell are relevant from Jaya until the end of Skypeia. Everything "post war" is just more story stuff from the war.

The problem with Dressrosa is that it's too long of a runtime, with too little time passing in universe. Dress Rosa, when it was published weekly, took about 2.5ish years to finish, for a total in universe duration of like 3 days. That made many people who read it weekly very much fed up with it. Now, if you read it all in one go, you don't feel that. You're sitting down one day and finish the whole thing by the time you go to bed. But now imagine having to wait week after week for years, sometimes with chapters that have nothing happen within them pretty much.

[@sorenwahlun]

I disagree with Water 7 > Enies Lobby because of story... The action wasn't the best part of Enies Lobby either. I really found the story to be the best part of Enies Lobby BY FAR. Nico Robin's back story is one of the most impactful character backstories I have ever seen, and her own character arc during the story itself is so satisfying. I also cannot get over how great of a moment it is to see all the Straw hats ready to directly defy the entire world government and save their friend, who doesn't even want to be saved. Such a great message. The Water 7 saga is definitely still my favourite saga in all of One Piece, and mostly because of Enies Lobby.

The Whiskey Peak thing always bothered me as well. As much as I loved Zoro turning out to be on to the villains the whole time, Luffy straight up turns on Zoro here. I like to imagine, that when Luffy caught up to Zoro, the latter was defeating the town so hard that it made it look like he was being the aggressor. Even still, Luffy literally turns on his crew mate. If Oda really wanted to slip in a Luffy vs Zoro fight (this is a random guess) there had to be a better way.

I hope you didn't just put it in S tier because you wanted to clearly show that you prefer water 7 with a tier difference when they were really in the same tier. Edit: Sabaody better too.

Oda does character development very weirdly for me. Instead of having gradual development, it feels a lot like the characters shift majorly in one moment rather then subtly over time (see brook after pedro, sanji on wci, robin and usopp in water 7/ eneis lobby… really just the whole crew)

[@mackielunkey2205]

I would absolutely agree with you if it weren’t for Luffy’s existence. Throughout the story, Luffy’s strengths (his sheer empathy and friendliness) and his weaknesses (his idiocy and tendency to choose whatever headstrong, reckless choice at the time) are sprinkled throughout, and Luffy’s character development to me, truly explodes during the Marineford Saga, where he tastes true, utter failure by losing Ace. It is not until then that Luffy becomes fully confident and decisive in his abilities.

In my opinion gradual character development works in some story but if u have a long serialization like one piece, i think putting an already developed character(s) works better than putting a gradual character development. One piece has character development, sure, but oda emphasized more to the scenerio of: "what if this developed character put in this kind of situation?" Kinda thing. Which is in my opinion is an easier(of course still hard though considering that this is a weekly serialization) scenario to write and works well with everything thats going on with one piece either situational comedy, dramas, politics, and scenarios like that in one piece, like the story writes itself if i put it simply.

People always talk about how good Oda is with foreshadowing to the point that sometimes you have to wonder if that is the case or if he's just really good at going back and reincorporating old threads. But it is so cool to look back and see how consistent Oda is with how he crafts his stories. Like the throughline throughout East Blue coming to a dramatic climax with Arlong Park. You see him do the same thing with plot elements like the Smile Fruit from Punk Hazard through Wano and Robin's characterization from Skypiea through Enies Lobby. Plus the big contest going on in Skypiea practically serving as a rough draft for every other big, climatic battle One Piece will have later on from Marineford to Dressrosa to Wano.

And foxy is just a poor villian, he's weaker than Luffy which does'nt help the why the hell can't Luffy just beat this fat ass up and be done with it. His gimmick get's old real quick and he's just really frigging annoying. We've seen over and over Luffys not doing this to proove something to anyone else he just wants a grand adventure and to see if he can achieve the impossible. So why the hell would he care about what some scrub's crew thinks of him and his friends he knows they all have value. I did a big rewatch with the dub and once I got to this section, I decided you know what G8's a much better arc and has a villian that's able to pose a unique challenge to Luffy so much more effectively than Foxy plus has some excellent foreshadowing for Water 7 and Enies Lobby that I just watched that and skipped the davy back crap.

None of the things you listed were unknown before Long Ring Island. Luffy never got stronger and he was already at his limit vs Crocodile and similar with other crew members. I dont know what you mean by teamwork, but if you mean sanji and zoro, they never had any teamwork and are still the same. As for the fun, although it is subjective, I had very little of it and there are objectively bad things about that arc which detracts from it. The villain is not scary or strong so there is a lack of tension. The fights drag on way longer than they need to. The rule of interference is very logically inconsistent. There is no character building, world building or story progression. Long Ring is a bad filler arc that Oda has written and put into the main story. You could entirely remove the Foxy pirates part of it, only keeping Aokiji and the story would not only lose absolutely nothing, but it would be better for it.
