G5 isnt even as popular as gojo vs sukuna
Which is sad because Gojo vs Sukuna hasn't even hit the anime market yet. It will blow anything from One Piece out of the water. Might be the only thing to compete with Goku vs Jiren if not surpass it.

G5's ripple was like a drop in the Ocean and One Piece fans were acting like the world turned over.
 
With the live action now, all sorts of Hollywood people are watching it. Never happened with Naruto.

I think the LA is trash, but it's still better than any other adaptation out there. And now the new adaptation will get even more people into it.
I hope you realize that most of those people are just larping as OP fans.
 
One Piece kinda reminds me of James Cameron’s Avatar.

Avatar is the most viewed movie triology, but has had basically no influence on the culture (can’t even think of a single meme from it, and most people can’t even remember the names of any characters besides Jake Sully and Neytiri). Meanwhile, there’s like a million popular memes from Endgame alone.

One Piece may be the most watched anime, but it has had a relatively low influence on the culture when compared to shows like JJK. Hell, even Invincible is used more often in anime memes, and it’s not even an anime
Luffy is literally one of the most recognizable anime characters in modern day. Like hell there’s a reason why the macys parade only features pikachu Goku and Luffy in terms of anime characters.
 
Meh. One Piece never sold globally like that compared to Naruto. Oda himself said so in an interview.

If it ends with Naruto, the kids today watching JJK who already don't give two shits about it wouldn't even know it ever existed.

I only ever heard One Piece was really big in France.
It’s big in China and Vietnam, visited those countries and there’s a lot One Piece merch and shit. It’s most likely a big rage in a lot of east and SE Asian countries. And yes, it’s big in France and probably Germany.

Nuclear hot take warning: As much as people (rightfully) make fun of Oda's deteriorating drawing abilities, Gege's drawing, especially during that fight, and some of the choices he made to skip certain events and paneling, was pure putrid asscheeks.

I get it from a hype perspective of reading the manga weekly, it was fun, but aint no way that shit is in top 5 of one of all shounen battles for me

Only real ones will know when it all said and done what One Piece really was when big brother Naruto was around.

One Piece is like Roger. Whereas Naruto is Xebec, we already saw when both of them were alive at the same time who was running the show. It's easy to act tough when top 1 ain't around anymore.

I will tell my grandkids how One Piece is a fraudulent product.

It was dogshit. The fact that this is a hot take is sad. JJK art was never great but it was shit on a screen during late stages.

I keep mentioning this but Gojo looked like a frog.

gege can genuinely not draw for shit. god bless him. hes a fun writer and hes ok with panel comp but his inking is the dogshit worst ive ever seen in a major published manga. it makes attack on titan look drawn well. a lot of those chapters are just straight up scribbles

Nah, shit definitely changed around COVID era, which is also when the first season of OPLA came out.

One Piece has crossed over into pop culture..

It doesn't have the footprint of other, more accessible works yet, but it will outlast all but a few.

Gojo vs sukuna in the anime might end up being the most popular right in anime shonen i think
