Gavin Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Does anyone know anything that's similar to One Piece? I still haven't found anything like it. It has the greatest characters I've ever seen in an anime, people who you actually care about. The stories go from lighthearted to highly emotional. There's also a good number of mysteries that are intriguing. It's definitely my favourite anime since the world of One Piece is incredible but I can't find anything similar.

A good art-style that's almost like One-Piece is Fairy Tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rene Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 Somewhere, someone thought it was a good idea to combine huge mechas and huge drills together. "Mine is a drill that will pierce the heavens!!!" It's so over the top that it's good. :< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other things that might help make your anime popular: Gratiutous fanservice, excessive gore, Bishonens, Loli's, overcompensating swordsmen, anti heroes, fridge philosophy, ...

Entrility Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I also noticed that no one mentioned Paprika which is directed by Satoshi Kon who did one of the shorts for Memories. Watch that as well. Another Satoshi Kon film : Perfect Blue You, sir, are a god. PERFECT BLUE is one of the greatest movies. EVAR. Btw, anyone here read GE ~Good Ending~? Such a good one, imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of today, Angel beats! is officially .Hack// In all essence, the plot has turned to somebody is hacking the world. Great action scenes, though.

I wonder how they decided to call him that A lot of the names in DB have a food theme to it. In general most villains have their own theme. Lets not forget: Trunks & Bra Briefs. (Bulma's son and mother) Garlic Jr, Spice, Mustard, Vinegar (from some filler arc) Nappa means cabbage in japanese. And so on. Toriyama was really hungry when he wrote Dragonball.

Adam? Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 (edited) Ichigo means "used condom" in Japanese. I know, hard to believe, but it's a fitting name for his character. Edited June 12, 2010 by Adam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morte Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Someone made the most brilliant app for onemanga to use in Chrome. It tracks any manga you put on it's list, remembers the last chapter you read, and shows you when they update Naruto is getting GOOD.
