Its kinda cool Oda can have a whole movie made purely to be an AMV for an idol heβs a fan of.
Whats the point of being the magic behind a multimillion dollar franchise if you canβt use it for your own self indulgence every once in a while?

The events if the movie are clearly noncanon, but is Uta entirely noncanon or is she in a Shiki-esque position (technically canon and a presence in the story at some point in the past or present but not the character she was in the movie)

Same deal as Shiki, the character is canon, their backstory is canon, the events of their movie are noncanon. Everyone and everything else from every other movie is total noncanon.

One piece definitely helped Ado cement her popularity but she's so much higher above it now that it isn't even a contest
I went to her concert, sure there were a few hamplanets dressed up as Uta and a few nerds wearing straw hats but only 3 out of 21 songs in the setlist are even one piece stuff in the first place

Ado was comissioned for one piece because she was insanely popular, not vice versa.
What is far more interesting is that a Japanese studio considered Ado to be a safe pick, despite the considerable backlash aimed at Ussewa, the song that made her famous in the first place.

Oda really really liked that vtuber, or whoever the fuck the movie was made to shill. He's bored of one piece itself and only keeps plugging away at it to pay the bills.

Dude so Beckham's got to be like a frat brother to Shanks or something. Being that Shanks is a rich bitch, it's perfectly fitting he's got some ride-or-die second fiddle who couldn't possibly be nearly as well of as he is. Most of the rest honestly it seems like he picked up on his stupid pirate vacation just because he wants a crew. I wonder what did he ever 'do' for Yassop and company like Luffy did for his? They're loyal but lmfao, he's rich! They all seem like happy drunks just fucking around!

it was pic related
kinoest songs were ussewa (the energy of kickstarting the show with that one was insane), gira gira (3D visuals were absolutely gorgeous), rule (she goes totally unhinged with the vocals), rockstar because the song is literally made to be played live, and the chandelier cover was just pure kino

It's still crazy the worlds biggest anime did a 90 minute music video for a singer and even made her a fanfic self insert character

We all know Two Piece is inevitable. But who do you guys think the author will be?
>Scenario 1
Oda writes and draws the entire thing again
>Scenario 2 (Kishimoto-Ikemoto style)
Oda picks the least talented amongst his assistants and has him handle the series
>Scenario 3 (Toriyama-Toyotaro style)
Oda picks whoever's in charge of one of his side material, he's not as bad as scenario 2 but completely unfit to take up the mantle and has to be handheld by Oda through the series constantly.

> Nooooo this movie isnβt canon!!
Iβm honestly sick of this trend in recent years where only canon movies get treated as sacred.
If you ask me, the thrill of watching an anime movie for the first time has always been stronger with filler movies than with canon ones.
Think about it, canon films (whether itβs Infinity Castle, the Reze arc, or whatever) are stories the audience already knows from the manga.
At that point, the only real excitement is checking how the animation and soundtrack bring those scenes to life.
On the other hand, filler movies are completely new stories.
You donβt know whatβs waiting for you, and that tension and surprise is where the real hype comes from.
Plus, filler lets us see new sides of our favorite characters, moments youβd never get in canon.
Thatβs a huge advantage.
Look at Detective Conan.
The series has thrived on exactly this formula, delivering filler movies every year that fans love.
Thatβs how anime films were meant to be enjoyed. Itβs honestly kind of depressing that todayβs anime fandom has forgotten that spirit.

The only actually enjoyable post timeskip OP movie is Adventure of Nebulandia.
>absolutely fantastic main villain
>Zoro and Sanji are MIA for a good chunk of it so the lower ring strawhats get plenty of relevancy
>final fight isn't a clunky, spastic mess with seizure inducing lights
Unfortunately, it doesn't have that last part, there are no Nami-faced bimbos, and the main villain isn't an unga bunga punch-harder villain nor does he have a tragic backstory so it flies under the radar.

He's too complex for Oda. And for Toei. I genuinely think they must have had a guest producer or something.

Bit of a spoilers but I did like how it foreshadowed gear second in a way that it made sense for Luffy to learn it
Rather than in the main like store he kind of just learns it out of nowhere

I remember those two nobodies appearing in the opening 8 or 7, I don't remember well. Namie Amuro besides performing two openings had a personalized animation with the straw hats and then this dumb movie full of Ado songs. I don't know why Toei thinks that One Piece fans care enough about those people to want to see those cheap crossovers/collaborations.

It's all about money. Toei seems to be under contract with this equally bad record label where they promote their βartistsβ for money, which explains why One Piece never had any well-known bands/singers performing for the show and why the openings were always below average compared to other big shonen.

It was a terrible movie. Even Stampede, which also felt kind of empty, at least had multiple beloved characters interacting with each other as fanservice. This was just a mediocre OC movie with One Piece characters in the background. They could have made an original movie for Ado and there would be no difference.

Shiki will always be my favourite film antagonist because his goals and motivation are insanely petty
Also floating islands are romantic
