I started reading One Piece a month ago, I got to chapter 450 in about 2 weeks and I've been taking a break since then.
One Piece fans in the audience, who are your favorite characters?
One of my favorites is Buggy the Clown. I've never seen someone fail upwards so much since Ryan Kavanaugh (or Elon Musk).
Of the Strawhat crew, if we remove Luffy from the equation, Sanji is probably my favorite, followed by Nami.
My favorite relationship between two characters is definitely Luffy and Zoro. I really love how they both trust each others abilities so much that when one hears that the other is dealing with a situation, they consider it already successfully dealt with.

>>1162957I honestly loved the art style of One Piece from the beginning because of the vibe the style gives to the series.
It's also the thing I like most about Shonen Jump manga, the magazine embraces artist with more unique and distinctive art styles rather than the standard "please animate my manga drawn in the style you already know" kind of "standard" art style. One Piece certainly falls into that category right along classic Jump series like Fist of The North Star, Dragon Ball, and JoJo's bizarre adventure. Even series that have more conventional art styles in anime adaptation usually have rather more distinct styles in the original Jump manga like Yuu Yuu Hakusho, and more recent series like Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man

>>1162962Buggy is just so fucking good. I can't get enough of him.
>>1162969The art style divorced from the manga didn't do it for me, but when they're put together I 100% agree that it fits the series so well. Looking at it as "Popeye the Sailor Man" specifically was what made it work for me.
>>1162973It's one of those things you can't really know until you try it.
