Eiichiro Oda really IS a genius. To take elements from mythology, the greatest sea stories/legends/myths... and spin only a few fractals of it... into ... THIS lovely anime/manga/story. He's epic. One Piece truly is a man's romance. This romance is why the great explorerers hit the seas to begin with... and he takes that ambition and runs with it. His foreshadowing is perfect... and his attention to detail amazes me. Its no wonder that he had most of it planned out before he even named it. He's truly amazing and I'd love to build an entire monument to his brain, heart, and passion. I don't care if he writes a thousand more episodes... as long as he is still having fun with it. One Piece is a joy.   See 10 other replies

One Piece is one of my favorite shows of all time, let alone my favorite among animes. Cowboy Beebop and Death Note may have been good (honestly? Fantastic), but I never loved their characters as much as those from One Piece.   See 10 other replies

Gotta agree. The fact that One Piece appeals to so many different kinds of people, how it can be a kids show and hardcore at the same time, places it in a rare category. Eiichiro Oda is a genius.   See 10 other replies
