Jumbled mess
zhyates18 December 2021
Absolutely lacking in suspense and atmosphere, this movie is perhaps the most generic One Piece side story. Not all comedic bits land, the villains are extremely one note, and even the main cast come across as unenthused by the "adventure". Easily skippable.

Not the greatest plot
Mysterygeneration13 January 2024
Not the greatest plot for a One Piece film ever It is just a treasure hunt, which is a thrilling but very typical activity, after all. As is usually the case with One Piece, it includes some interesting twists and humor. The art is, of course, simply the same as the standard One Piece series's artwork. I'm aware that some people think One Piece's artwork is appalling, but I just believe that those people aren't very understanding and that One Piece's work is pretty distinctive and different from a lot of other works. Thus, I believe that the art's quality simply depends on one's perspective. Some of the best anime music and sound effects can be found in One Piece. This film is worthy of its reputation. As easy as that.

If you're a fan of One Piece, you probably already know what an incredible cast the show has. However, this is about the film. Putting the main characters aside, this film has a unique One Piece character style that contributes to the show's excellence. A dumb but seemingly brilliant primary antagonist who is destined to dominate the world, an elderly, two-foot-tall baasan who is locked in a treasure chest, and two of his obedient goons who have afros and mohawks One of the best things about One Piece has always been its characters, and this movie is no exception. Although I wouldn't rank this as the greatest One Piece film ever created, it is still quite enjoyable and well worth seeing. Ideal method to pass the time till the next show airs while enjoying a charming side story. If you're concerned about it, you won't feel like you're watching a pointless filler while watching this movie. Overall, certainly give it a watch, odds are you'll appreciate it.

Like going through an action packed ride.

The Strawhat Pirates are at it again in their seventh movie debut. In this one they come across an old woman while salvaging some pirate ships. She's from a turtle-related island. Which is said to have a treasure. The chieftain is her grandson and has a desire to dominate the world with his Mecha inventions. And in order for that to happen, there's a riddle on the that uncovers a big surprise.

This One Piece movie is very fast moving & very entertaining. Everything you see in it happens so fast. Especially when Nami and Robin's breasts bounce a lot. Another good about this film, is it's really thought through from beginning to end.
