If I dont know shit about one piece...

If I dont know shit about one piece, can I just play the pirate warriors game learn from there instead of subjecting myself to that many episodes/manga chapters

No, you cannot.

No, since the games skip over many plot points and characters.
Pirate Warriors 4 even skips over many complete arcs to focus on a select few.

Read the manga.

No. If you like it, you'll wish there were more. The value in a story isn't how quickly you finish it.

well is the manga atleast decent? I don't want to get tricked into reading another shounen with a faggot MC

You sound like a joyless cynical person so you probably won't like it

Don't bother, while having a few endearing moments, one piece is mostly shit due to the sheer volume and it gets only worse as longer as it gets.
Latest manga chapters are a barely coherent mess, covering the pages in 80% speech bubbles you can't tell who they are belonging, too because they switch the location and group of character around 5 times per page.

one piece sucks man dont even bother
go play uns4

Yes.

>too dumb to follow a children's manga

user...

You cannot. So that`s gonna be 600 episodes for you to reach timeskip and around 200 episodes for you to be familiar with post-timeskip universe, good luck.

It has some pretty cool moments, but it only start getting good 200 episodes in

user...

Nah I enjoy reading manga its just that most of the really popular shounen have insufferable protags(Deku) and I rather not risk it. Only shounen I enjoy rn is chainsaw man
sanji looks like a cool guy ngl
>200 episodes in
bruh

One Piece is unironically my favourite manga, and I only started reading it fairly recently (about 5 years ago). I wish it was longer so I could spend more time reading it.
Though I don't get why you care to play a One Piece game if you don't even know anything about One Piece.

>but it only start getting good 200 episodes in
Arlong is at like episode 30 and it doesn't get much better than that.

The Pirate Warriors games are fun, but they're like abridged versions of the arcs and leave out some characters. In Pirate Warriors 3, they don't mention the Neptune Brothers during the Fishmsn Island chapter (who honestly would have been great playable characters).

difference in pace between chainsawman and one piece is astronomical. csm runs at a sprinting pace. one piece is a leisurely jog. just be aware of that if you do read one piece.

Deku stops being a faggot during the Yakuza arc.

I never understood this idea. like every piece of media needs to be rapidly consumed to make way for new media. fucking zoomers have no patience. The biggest reason to get into one piece is for the world building you can't zoom past that

If I am really gonna do this, tell me who is best girl before I dive in
I know fuji has a rather unorthodox way of progressing his story but I enjoy however I don't expect every other manga to go at the same pace kinda silly. I suppose if this really is a fun ride it will be worth the hundreds of chapters
No he doesn't lmao, he still sucks off bakugou constantly

The manga is good. have a tab open of the SBS, the author's Q&A corner while you read. It's nearly 20 years of his life set out in the form of a silly Q&A between him and the readers he picks to publish.

Pirate Warriors is peak musou. The variety of characters and care put into every aspect is unmatched in the genre.

It's not really worth knowing about

The One Piece protag is probably the best shounen protag. He isn't a whiny bitch or some bishounen bait, he's just some kid who has a dream he believes in. He doesn't have any greater morals, and the mangaka doesn't even pretend he is particularly deep - which doesn't mean he isn't a well developed character. He is just simple. If you don't follow your dreams yourself and just whine about being weak, he will call you a useless idiot and be done with you. He's the type of guy who respects people who stand up for themselves against all odds. Not a broody edgelord, not a whiny faggot. Just some wacky kid with some principles.

I don't think One Piece pacing is that slow. It's just a long ass manga.
But yeah, I haven't read CSM, but if it's anything like Firepunch it will have a faster pacing than One Piece.

>If I am really gonna do this, tell me who is best girl before I dive in
Well, the best girl in One Piece is obviously Camie.

The storytelling fucking sucks ass in the pirate warriors games and does almost zero world building. Just read the manga if you care about the story and world building.

luffy sounds tolerable, thanks for actually describing him. My interest is piqued, ill dive in mang. If you have read fire punch, CSM is a must read since its like firepunch but much better in every other aspect.
>Fish pussy
sounds nice

From what I've read, he doesn't interact with Bakugo thst much anymore.

Arlong has good moments but it`s not a good arc at all. Alabasta is the first really good arc, it has cool environments, good fights, good characters, good plot elements and a good overall plot.

whats so bad about perona's personality and robin's looks?

Alabasta arc has the benefit of having a long build up to it. There's like 4 arcs worth of build up before the crew even gets to Alabasta.

>>Fish pussy
>sounds nice
She first shows up in the cover stories, make sure to read those aswell! The covers of chapters will, after some time, start telling their own little stories, telling you what side characters or defeated villains are up to as they are not in focus. Oda likes re-introducing characters later on, and these cover stories are his way of letting you know what is going on around the world when the protag gang isn't there.

>CSM is a must read since its like firepunch but much better in every other aspect.
Sounds cool. I liked Fire Punch, but it always felt a bit unfocused to me. Great art style and panelling though. I will probably read CSM when it is finished, I heard it is reaching its climax in the near future?

Literally how did her mother give birth to her?

I don't like timeskip robin's fivehead or figure. Perona would probably be best girl if she just had more time.

Arlong is tight and pretty much perfect. Alabasta is meandering and has one of the dumbest moments in the series.

Arlong Arc has some of the best "great moments" in early One Piece, though I honestly think Baratie is underrated in that regard.

Pell was worth if if just for the memes.

>I heard it is reaching its climax in the near future?
No don't fall for the meme lords. Its making shounen jump some good money so ofc not. You should atleast check it out before it gets an anime and all the discussion is ruined on/a/

That moment is only dumb in retrospect.

Fishman lay eggs.

>NO GUNS OR RFERENCES TO GUNS
>Oh, but we can show Luffy beating the shit outta people
The 4kids dub was weird.

One piece characters are well fleshed out and suprisingly the interactions between every character is really believable. No bullshit like bakugou where everyone sucks off the Shithead of no positive trait. If a character is a shithead he will be treated like a shithead.

Ah, okay. I thought it was close to be finished, but I only tangentially followed discussion on it. I will look into it.
