I don’t understand the LRLL hate, it was such a fun arc. The anime filler may have sucked but the actual manga arc was pretty fun
Ah I didn't start reading the manga until Dressrosa

Long Ring it felt like filler and added absolutely nothing to the overall story most it did was introduced Aokiji and he could of been introduced at anytime
What did drum island provide? Chopper? Wapol? some flower petals

I would've been fine if they bought chopper at a petting zoo. If we could skip wapol. And some fighting bunnies.

At least in long ring, aokiji is there and we get sanji and zoro vs the 3 monkey Brothers. Plus afro luffy was funny

We got luffy scaling thousands of meters up a steep cliff side to save his navigator

We got an hilarious antagonist with a broken ability if you think about it

And we got emergency food supply

Wapol was not funny in the slightest. Annoying and cringe tbh. The plot was meant to be serious about the doctors being reserved for the king.

It just didn't hit home. The moral dillema on the island.

Half the arc was about aces Sakura petals flashback. Which really sucked.

Choppers the only redeemable aspect. Nothing exciting happens here.

You literally named it. Luffy climbed a cliff. Luffy fought snow bunnies. The annoying king got one shot by luffy. Chopper joins the crews.

It just felt like filler that oda tried to turn into something more. Thing is. You can't put lipstick on a pig


In long ring we at least get aokiji, more of Robin's backstory, we get to see ice age from the admiral. We see the monster trio vs an admiral. We get afro luffy which was funnier than wapol at least lol. We get sanji and zoro vs the monkey Brothers in that soccer game.

We get some major lore drops and we see more unique animals and people in long ring. The islands unique ecosystem was much more interesting than an island covered in snow.

Idk long ring long land just checks all the boxes that make it better in my opinion. Drum island and wapol was a snooze fest and i can never make it through without losing my motivation to watch one piece.

You didn't enjoy sanji and zoro disarming aokiji and defending Robin?


You didn't enjoy ice age? Or afro luffy?

What specifically about drum island was better than long ring long land?

Can you give me one solid reason or comparison? What makes the first arc that the strawhats encounter an admiral in worse than drum island?

I mean Robin's backstory reveal alone was more than enough to place it above drum island for me

Aokiji part is good

And nah I didn't enjoy Afro Luffy all that much it was a cool scene but overall wasn't feeling it

Drum island had a nit more pizazz to it and luffy climbing the mountain was an iconic moment and that moment also it progressed the plot a lot introduced new fan favorite characters I personally don't like chopper but his fans do also if I recall correctly wasn't Drum island when the will of D concept was first brought up by Kureha and also Dr Hiruluks speech iconic

Long Ring was an unnecessary pitstop that didn't progress the story out side of Aokiji introduction an the end of the arc or beginning? I forget when exactly

Wheres this pizazz in drum island?

It didn't progress the plot whatsoever. That arc was essentially filler with nothing important in it besides chopper. What part of the plot did it progress?

You've got that confused with long ring long land. Which actually moved the story a shit ton and filled in Robin's back story.

I remember the will of D being brought up before. I do remember it being mentioned in drum island arc. But nothing very revelating tbh. We didn't get any info about it. Just another confirmation that the will of D is real.


I will say it's cool cause it mentions blackbeard for the first time ever since ace was around

I guess we'll agree to disagree. I just don't see the appeal whatsoever to drum island. Maybe its cause I remember the long drawn out anime version of it and not the manga

Long ring Long Land is fun, foxy is cool, a great "break" arc between two long arcs, lore and plot with aokiji.
Drum has chopper and BB in ONE PANEL.
Drum has HORRIBLE pacing for being so short, no interesting fights.
At leas LRLL makes multiple way to transform fights that were one sided into real fights.
Drum is...
Lets say sanji has a bad back? Zoro is lost for the whole arc, nami is sick, bibi is useless and Luffy does everything.
Terrible.
Only saving grace the flashback, but given the fact that chopper is at this point a non character in one piece, i really wish it didnt exist.

Man,i hated foxy,it felt like filler.I watched it on the anime back when all episodes of it were already released and i couldn't wait to finish that mess.Foxy was just boring to me.

Half the arc in the anime is filler. You can skip most of it
