One Piece Film: Red

Movies about one of the longest running and still unfinished anime we have out there. Not being very knowledgeable about either the comic series or the cartoon series I cannot say if this film is accurate in terms of coherence and continuity with the general plot and for this I will limit myself to judging the film for what it is. So overall the film is very colorful and full of life but it's still a bit boring, there are several points that in my opinion are too drawn out and too long to keep the viewer's attention, having said that though overall the film is watchable It is funny. So in conclusion the movie is good.

I'm a huge one piece fans but most of their movies are lackluster for me. Including this one and the previous one.

It was nice watching many characters teaming up and showing their personalities. The comedies are there and the songs are nice. Ado is amazing and the songs are catchy. The lyrics are pretty good too.

Unfortunately the story is just lackluster and the part where they were all fighting the big boss were just colour and nonsense. You don't feel power from it or much hype (except the end with shanks and luffy).

Feel like it could be better tonally and emotionally. Think it was marketed as shanks movie but it didnt feel like that. They still have to keep shanks secretly I guess... even in the manga shanks is still kinda a side characters with probably the most secrets.

Anyway I love luffy and the bear is so cute. Kuma chan Im a fan.

Cool songs and a few amazing fight scenes, but unfortunately a letdown on some parts. I love One Piece so much but I'm not gonna lie, I almost fell asleep in the middle of the movie simply because too many effects were used in the battle scene and it got pretty repetitive that I lost all focus and got too bored. It's also a big shame that recent One Piece movies had become a series of cameo fest instead of a good adventure movie with just the straw hats. I know it's interesting to see old characters coming back, but too many of them randomly showing up makes it look like they were there just for show. I believe One Piece movies are mostly non-canon, but I think a sense of believability is still needed to make them enjoyable and this movie simply offered no canon continuity or believable value (in the perspective of a long-running series with its own universe). Although, as a spectacle, this movie was enjoyable and a fun watch in general, filled with classic One Piece humour, and it surely is always nice to see the straw hats together!

I don't wanna admit but yes One Piece Red was not the best part in One Piece movies. The story was not solid, and even though I knew it was about Uta and Shanks and music, there was too much songs filled in the movie.

Yeah, I liked the last 15-20 mins with all the action, and also watching couple of my likeable characters (Katakuri) coming back to screen. Apart from that, the first half was not much interesting. Can say, that One Piece Red is a one time watch, although they have done good job with the animation and OST.

Story : 5/10 Animation : 7/10 Characters : 6/10

My Final Rating : 6/10.

One Piece is an amazing TV anime and one I've been watching for more then a decade. So I was make sure to tune into their movies. While this movie was far from their best, I still enjoyed certain aspects. If you tune in to watch a bunch of fighting (which most fans would've seeing as it is a battle shonen) then the movie is not good. Personally, I thought the musical + battle arrangement was innovative, of course it could've been better but the overall story was able to entertain for the duration (until the last part). I personally found the ending a mix of being extremely cool and extremely cringy, Shanks and his crew can't actually show their power because spoilers so it felt a bit awkward, and the choreography is nothing compared to Stampede. The music and animation was great, but Uta felt annoying, its a waste seeing as I thought she could've been the best movie only character. Overall, fun movie but would not satisfy most fans, particularly those who expect the usual style of One Piece movie.
