okay but why do people shit on One Piece so much?? Is it the goofy art, which never lacks a detailed background? Is it the main character who’s perceived as an idiot? Because it’s an anime maybe I guess? You’d think tumblr would be all over this show, seriously there are so many important things in One Piece like

* Canonically asexual main character

* Canonically bigender character

* No romance storylines. The characters go to the ends of the earth not for a romantic partner, but for friends

* Female characters who probably have more intricate and engaging pasts/dreams than the male characters’

* Female characters who can fight and take shit from no one

* Female character who is arguably the best at something (navigation) in the entire world

* Princess character who is never patronized/has her fighting abilities questioned because she is female, and is loved as a hero of her country

* Badass female pirate captain based on a legendary pirate who later became a queen, Awilda

* So many historical references

* Stories that will absolutely make you cry

* Hundreds of characters and a world that feels as fleshed out and real as Harry Potter’s world

* Men aren’t mocked for crying or showing affection for their male friends

* It shouts “FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS” from the bottom of its heart and soul and it makes you actually believe it, instead of feeding you a few corny lines and sending you on your way

Essentially One Piece is an emotional roller coaster and it is really fucking good, and this is coming from someone who pretty much doesn’t watch anime at all. Don’t hate on something simply because of the art style because that’s the dumbest thing ever and if that’s your biggest reason for hating something I don’t have respect for you.
