Why is One Piece less popular than Bleach/Naruto

[onepiecelover]

Whatever anyone sayz I will never forgive 4kids for changing Sanji's ciggerates to a lolipop I bet you if only it had a better dubbing one piece would be a lot more famous, those stupid 4kids screwed it up.

[goozeygumgum]

who cares about a stupid lollipop i think its actually cooler because its actually different from the manga. if the anime was just like the manga who would watch it??? and smokings stupid anyways!!!!!!!

[Wolcik]

I didn't see the 4kid version, did they changed Smoker's cigaretes too?
cause it would be hella funny if he'd use smoke from Sanji's cigarete once and they woudl have to fiqure a way to make lollipop smoke XD

[Zu Ra]

Leaving the cool part the smoking thing has a lot more significance . If Sanji was given a lolipop in the orignal version .. there would be no Gojyo as we know today .

Gojyo ( saiyuki ) and Sanji share the same seiyu Hiroaki Hirata . Well that seiyu due to his Sanji role has been typecast to play parts where chracters are chain smokers . You could imagine what big of an impact that Sanji role had . Taking away a chracter trait like that is wrong and crossing the fine line

Hiroaki Hirata

I'm readin' the manga right now. Though I never actually watch the anime but I did saw a few dubs on 4kids. God...they can't dub for shit. I remember this one episode where the Strawhats were locked up in this cell, and this one dude (who in the original anime was smokin' a cigar) stood there talkin' and there were smoke comin' out of his face. At first I'm like "Hmmm what's that?" Then I had a chance to look at the original version and find out it was a cigar that got edit out.

Guys i'm new to one piece , I'm around Episode 30 on the Subbed Anime , but still couldn't get the hang of it , Lufie seems to annoy me a lot , how long does it take for the anime to get more interesting ? like Bleach when it reached around Ep. 15-16

[Trax]

Hm, episode 30 is at the end of the Don Krieg arc, which was decent I think. You should at least check out the next arc (Arlong arc), which lasts until episode 44. If you still don't like OP then, then you might aswell give up since the Arlong arc is one of the best imo. It mainly revolves around Nami, since it takes place on her home island.

agree I loved Arlong Arc ........... where Luffy crush the gate of Arlong Park... oh yeah it's so cool.....

[Chuixupu]

I've known some people who say they didn't get into One Piece until Alabasta, but I don't know how they made it that far if that was really the case. XD

generally, people tend to recommend sticking till at least the arlong arc. though, i got hooked once zoro once introduced

Yeh right one piece gets better as you go on and on. it especially gets good at the part with baroqe works!!! thats probably my favorite part in one piece!!!!

[Zu Ra]

My fave was the Chopper Arc . My excitement did get a lil dim by the unnessecary Emoness of chopper at times .

[Skat42345]

Hmmmm i would like to say that I like Bleach more than one piece because Bleach has more action and better fight scenes and yes Bleach is too funny but so is one piece so yea....

Yeah... One Piece battles have been classified as the best of all time. Bleach battles are pretty short in comparison and it's the same giant sword every time. In Bleach, you don't see a different attack in EVERY arc, do you? Wait, are there arcs in Bleach? I don't think I've seen any. Maybe a 2-3 part episode would count, but not likely. As for humor, OP is more fresh. It's always original and only one or two jokes are ever used countless times. Bleach, on the other hand, is much like Naruto and Inuyasha in the sense that it has a lot of running gags that come up just about all the time.

The reason for this is said to be due to the fact that Oda had more fun making OP than any other anime creator could ever have making a series. He didn't make it just for money like others, so even fillers are worth watching.
