ALT: a picture of a conversation in Teams between two coworkers. One coworker says:

LOL You should read One Piece Its such a good story in such an easy to digest format Too much "good content" is locked behind like super serious overtones Shit gets too heavy too much

the other person responds:

not only will I not be reading it, I will not be watching it either if you contact me again about this, I will seek legal action

The anime drags on at times, you can watch the One Pace project for a more streamlined anime experience, where stuff actually happens. Toei tends to insert flashbacks to extend the runtime too.

As for the message of One Piece, being a pirate is cool, seeking adventure is neat, friendship is great, systems of power end up abusing their population under the pretense of protection while criminalizing any form of dissent, the usual.

It's honestly great. I wasn't daunted by the length because I did like having something to watch and not having to think about what to watch(because there are always more OP episodes), but eventually you do catch up.
