I don't deny it being a good anime but why would people call it the best anime?
I started to watch recently
stopped at ep 131 to take a break
imo it's a decent anime, but the fights are really bad and not interesting at all... Luffy is always using the same techniques, and the last arc i watched Nami used a weapon built by Usopp to defeat an enemy and it was pretty silly...Usopp is just useless at everything, but a good character, Sanji is always kicking things, boring... and Zoro is the most interesting one
btw the characters' personalities are the best part of the anime.
It's just okay, nothing insane. I think Naruto is better.
once you are like 200 eps in you realise a 23 min ep is just around 13 min filled with a last episode recap and random recaps its just a skip simulator, I personally would recommend reading the manga over the anime shorter and to the point. Also the new animation is just so flashy its like a light show I dont like it at all
