I'll thank you now, I've been wanting to get into one piece but the ridiculous length was keeping me off.

Asking about the one piece anime is a good litmus test for potential friends. If they hate it, they have decent taste. If they like it, they’ll probably accept my extended, meandering tangents.

I've seen 46 anime series and movies in the time it would take me to get 2/3 the way through One Piece

If I say this outside of shitpost subs, I get attacked.

One summer in college I watched the first 500 episodes in an extreme binge session. Probably 18 hour days of nothing but one piece day after day. Then I ran out of episodes. I keep thinking I'll watch the rest someday, but I struggle up even remember most of what I watched back then. And now watching 1000 episodes feels like an impossible challenge

Probably 18 hour days of nothing but one piece day after day.

... was that enjoyable?

[–] greenskye@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

It was at the time, but honestly it wasn't great for my ability to retain much of what I watched. Good old ADHD hyperfocus kicking in.

Just started it last week. Enjoying it so far.

Is the main character autistic or something? He seems kinda oblivious to social queues

Luffy wants a stocked fridge, to honour his friendships and to be king of the pirates. He just doesn't give a single fuck about anything else

Just a heads up I think you mean "social cues". A cue is an indicator. A queue is a line waiting for something.

Unless the main character has issues with queueing, I guess. I dunno, I've never watched One Piece specifically because of the bonkers number of episodes.

Yeah, total waste of time.

goes back to playing DCSS

honestly I'm almost halfway through the anime and it's pretty good

One Piece is a children's show. My children love it. I wouldn't wish it on adults.
