General & Others Greatest stretch of the manga.

#1
For me it's not that hard to say but I have to narrow it down. I don't want to include entire arcs so I'll try and just go from scene a to scene b

Luffy entering drum island and vivi getting shot up until luffy and vivi duking it out in the dessert. Might be the greatest stretch in one piece.

Or you could say from the strawhat crew fighting oars up unto boas turn around in amazon lily. Those days were filled with adventure every week.

I'm a sucker for adventure so it's the whole Jaya+Skypiea arc for me until the moment Luffy rings the bell and Cricket sees his shadow
From the scene where they meet the giant shadows up until the comeback down and fight aokiji might have been peak adventure. That stretch fir me was like crack. Drum island and arabasts were more cinematic and dramatic for me but drum island was my introduction to one piece so I'm biased. Also Zoro not believing in God scene was hilarous.

From the point mihawk negs zoro till nami's "help me luffy" was the point where i fell in love with the show.

Fair enough, Skypiea for me is just like Drum for you. Probably the first episodes of OP I watched

Skypeia arc as a whole was my favorite pre TS arc aswell, lore dump coupled with funny moments and luffy displaying his superiority as a captain.

I just remember as like a 9 year old watching usopp being funny as hell and luffy climb up that mountain with nami on his back and Sanji in his theeth. And apparently luffy was so raw of a character when they woke up they didn't even think him and he didn't even explain what he did. Not to mention the pirate flag scene. I remember being impressed as hell and I didn't even see the Hililuk stuff back then. Seeing luffy punch a cannonball got the testosterone pumping not to mention muscle man was was next on the Saturday morning lineup.

Landing on Alabasta all the way through to leaving Skypeia is the peak of one piece.
Luffy in alabasta was badass and the Calatrava Noland story was amazing. The ringing of the bell by literally slamming the oppressor onto it really made you appreciate Odas early story telling. But let's be honest water 7 and enis Lobby was when people really stepped back and called one Piece #1

Water 7 and Ennies Lobby was great but honestly alabasta -> Jaya -> Skypeia was a 150 chapter span of adventure and fun. Ennies Lobby got hype due to the fights and the power ups but the Alabasta and Skypeia arcs really had the best spirit of one piece and it didn’t rely on hype but specialized in fun, lore, and characters.

Imma say the stretches where I had the most fun were beginning to Alabasta, sea train to end of enies lobby, mid dressrosa to beginning of wholecake Island. Reverie to beginning of Wano act 1

Probably was the most fun. Though I think drum island and alabasta made for the best adventure and had the more cinemagraphic moments. You can tell because some of the best scenes of enislobby you can't find on youtube because the hype of g2 and g3 are gone.

Trying to figure out the best stretch of pretimeskip one piece is like trying to argue which one of Kanyes first three albums was better. It's nearly impossible. Boy we use to have it good.
