It's bad to the point it's hard to distinguish things in the panels

>panels

Here's your (You), you stupid fuck.

Because it's fun.
>>
>>139405330
Thats just oda trying to cram as much shit as possible in a single panel
Paneling =/= art style and character design
>>
>>139405020
Because it's not your generic moe blob.

>>139405393
>>139405475

You folks are... kinda bad at interpreting, eh?

I used panels in the sense where PAGES, DRAWINGS, etc would apply.

I didn't talk about his paneling at all. I talked about his character design and art style.

Actually I take back a previous statement. You're not 'kinda bad', you're atrociously dumb.
>>
>>139405020
It's an action/comedy. You take the art as serious as you take the series.
>>
>>139405020
The character design is crazy and imaginative.
But don't worry, you can go back to watch your moeblobs and fujoshit, no one will miss you.
>>
>>139405569
so are you
you're probably an asshurt faggot that your friends keep telling you to check one piece but you're too much of a flamming homosexual to check it out because is not generic as fuck.

If the anime can't draw me in, I have no interest in the manga either.

I've seen enough of the manga posted here and there to see that the anime's design is a somewhat faithful adaptation

nah, he seems pretty close to finishing. I bet we have like 5 more arcs before we see a solid conclusion.

>>139405020

Please, telle me you love southpark or spongebob.

Had a hard time to start one pice, principally because of art. Once i started, i read it quite fast, laughed a lot, and i casually read it again starting from the beginning every trimester.

What's this guy's routine?

>>139405020
But does your series have The Kaido?
>>
>>139405020
Ive never read OP as shonen isnt my genre, but the art in the manga and style looks interesting and unique. Cartoonish in a good way. Some people just have issues with anything not typical anime weaboo style #1205 so hate on it im guessing like they do Ping Pong or Mononoke.

One Piece has a great style that fits its tone well and makes it very distinct. Actually has a bit of a western cartoon feel to it at times, which always keeps the mood light.

Its problem is the panel composition over the past few years getting more cluttered as Oda attempts to shove more into each page. It's actually why I prefer the digitally colored version of the manga.

Stop posting screencaps from the Toei anime.
>>
>>139405020
Oda has top tier sense of humor.
>>
>>139405020
Because it's just one show with a unique view of the world.

Not like an entire studio say.......kyoani which same faces every character of every series of every episode.

Let's throw out a description and see if you can get the show.

>Same face girl and her same face friends do something cute while not progressing the plot or adding any substance to the episode whatsoever

What's the kyoani show?
>>
>>139405020
because not everything needs to look like a teen drama you fag
>>
>>139411375
>What's the kyoani show?
K-ON
>>
>>139411375
I'd watch 50 kyoani shows before I watched one episode of One Shit
>>
>>139405020
Worldbuilding. The endless world of one piece is boundless.

You don't watch the anime. You read the manga.

>when it's art and character design are so fucking bad?
Part of the charm is that the designs are bad because it looks goofy, which is all and nothing more what One Piece is.
The better question is:
Why do retards like how One Piece looks?
And that answers itself.
>>
>>139405020
Both the marines and pirates have cool characters like whitebeard and akainu.
>>
>>139411375
that could be any episode of any of their shows anon. probably even a season finale

He doesn't know what to do with her powers. Her powers are too hax if used right.

>>139405330
Have you ever read Trigun or Steel Ball Run? You don't know shit about things in panels being hard to make out.
