Kinda depends on the "flow" - some days or weeks you'll see too much unwarranted negativity, othertimes it's at a sensible balance.

Admittedly I see this way more on PF than here. But Piratefolk is unfortunately a Reddit sub so the echo chamber-y aspect is magnified.

But either ways both are way less annoying than the mainsub which seems to recoil with sanctimonious horror if even the slightest criticism is expressed.
Yeah exactly man, well said. Most of the negativity comes from agendas and powerscaling but also theorising too much too. Even holding the series to too high standards.

I've never seen more outright hate than grifters online and the sanctimonious self righteous facetious cultists.
The latter at least will gaslight and smear you so hard, bully you and worse. Actual cult behaviour.

For people to so passionately feel so much anger and criticism to something, there has to be love for it in the first place that's just soured, turned bitter. A lot of disingenuous slander towards the anti echo chamber critics is they hate the series and hate read it because it's much easier to justify hating your enemy and scapegoat them if you make them seem much more primitive.

I've ranted and lectured about this so many times on here and I don't wanna keep repeating myself but there's an extremely dishonest, toxic positivity culture in the one piece community especially once the one piece theory grift culture took off and also the OP main sub literally gained millions more subs and OP became far more recognised and cherished worldwide and blew up on Twitter too.

Odas angels behave just like Oda has been described by those who know him personally. Completely afraid of criticism and need endless validation, reinforcement and thus worship. Like a cult.

One piece fans used to get bullied by fans of other series due to its silliness, lower tension/stakes, lack of deaths but not fake outs, it's art style, it's less serious attitude generally but one piece has the most powerful, emotional, unapologetic writing I've seen from any series when it wants to.

You only gotta look at last chapter to see when Oda locks in, when he gets serious, he doesn't fuck around. When he wants you to hurt, to feel sad, he will get vicious. Each arc post TS has has moments just like that. Kumas flashback was OTT misery porn but the writing is much better ATM.

As someone said recently, Oda has really balanced giving us both story and action and that's why the series feels for me the best it has been for a very long time now too.

I can't tell who's lying and who isn't in this thread, like actually say good things about one piece IT SHOULDNT BE THAT HARD, you read it, why do you read it/watch it if you don't like it?????
You just proved my point lol. Ironic.

Eh i dont know they are quite positive voices here for sure (this chapter multiple people praised how chopper was acting like a real character for example) but overall its very negative.
Like i give you an example: I often read how ass the art his sometimes (which is legit critism) but when the art looks good same people never say shit
It skews quite a bit to the negative, doesnt obviously mean people should not have their own opinions, i think i talked to @Mr. Reloaded about this in a similiar topic
But it's never 100% negative which is my main point too. 90% of the OP fan base is a cult that worships Oda like be can do no wrong, it's like a form of Odaddy issues.

A small forum like this is not even comparable to the absolutely endless amounts of Oda fellatio everywhere else.

Odas angels will never stop whining ironically until nobody can say anything critical of the series and they keep the community "stain free" and thus how Oda himself would like it too.

I joined here and stick by here because it's only of the only places I don't receive a barrage of hate, insults, death threats etc for criticising a series aimed specifically at teenage boys as Oda reminded us of explicitly lately, by people who genuinely lack any original thoughts, freedom of self, personalities and thus audacity to now follow the crowds and actually dare to be different and have their own original opinions and feelings.

I had to quit other OP communities because people who worshipped Oda dog piled me for hours online at least because God forbid I don't think Oda does 10/10 chapters all the time.

The ones who complain about here being too negative like piratefolk conveniently never mention how the other parts of the OP community are egregiously too positive too. If here is so negative and bad, why do they keep posting here, why do they keep reading our posts? Why don't they just "drop it"? They can put us on ignore, they can just dismiss our opinions but every criticism if Oda is like a deep personal attack to Odas angels, like they are his meat shields and must take the hits for him, on his behalf to "protect him" from us "Evil edgelords and haters".

Why do they not go to far more positive communities and circlejerk their own balls and egos blue over glazing Oda together and creating the most insufferable, unholy echo chambers?

I'm so tired of their whining ironically. They whine about our whining over the series and the cycle goes on.

In fact from now on, I'm taking my own advice and I'm just putting any of these "whiners" on ignore for my own sanity. Even though it mean making my own echo chamber ironically.

Most of the OP community is so unbearably fake and immature and Oda encourages it greatly, which is especially ironically bitter given the man writes and draws with absolute heart and thus biting emotional sincerity when he wants to.

People defend Oda like their lives and lives of their loved ones are at risk over it, I swear. It's exhausting.

I'll stop now as this topic just genuinely irritates me too much and I'll say something I regret sooner or later.

One thing I'll say to finish though is, without even truly trying I can write a 100 things I love about one piece and oda at minimum and I'm sure many others can too.

I may just drop a thread on it later to try and shut up this whining about Oda haters here later ironically.

Aye.

The amount of posts that get massively downvoted on Reddit for even the most minor of critical takes reeks of cultism, so I do think Worstgen has its place.
