    Default I said "screw it, I'm starting from the beginning"

    After continuous failures of finding a decent anime to watch and the impatience to wait for the weekly episode for the on-going ones I started leeching One Piece from episode 001.

    I've done this one time already. So I am confident I can do it the 3rd time.

    It's actually one of the saga's I'm looking for the most :P
    Can't recall any unpleasant parts yet, but time will show. Apis arc is the worst one so far <.<

    Well it is definitely worth a try. If you like it or not is up to you. For all the "starters" the episode count is somewhat scary and they are saying "I can't catch up *sob* *sob*" and etc. bullshit.

    It starts out at a pretty decent speed. Luffy picks up the base crew fast(5 people incl. Luffy), but further on it goes pretty slowly. Right now they are at 9 members and Luffys intention was to pick up a crew of 10 people. So 1 more awaits,
    I don't know...hard to tell, just watch. It may take time to actually "get attached" to this anime. I only really started to like it after around 50+ episodes or a little more because it was kinda shaby for a first-timer.

    Oh and if you get far enough to Apis arc then you might want to skip it. THE worst filler in this anime.
    As for myself I went through all the fillers because most of them are actually quiet decent with Apis being an exception, but still tolerable.

    And it's funny to see Nami growing from around B cup size to double D in later series

    If you don't mind spoiling yourself here is a link to an AMV from the best saga so far.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HaVV...eature=related
    The original video had over 1.5 million views, but it got deleted by ******ed youtube so now at least some people reupload it. It is around 290 episodes I think. Somwhere there.

    472 episodes atm
    Airs each Sunday, so 473 will come out in 2 days

    Oh and you definitely have to watch this amv - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn2W_Wxszfs

    It's and overall story progress. It starts out from the beginning of the series and goes up the Enies Lobby arc where the 1st amv takes place. Like an AMV recap you know :P
    Great AMV which got deleted too. Thx for people who keep re-uploading.
