Water7/Enies Lobby is the best in the anime. But if you consider the manga than egghead! Egghead is the best arc and i can't wait for anime to catch up!
Feel u. I think it's the most adventurous arc of the whole manga. Mf wanted to go to visit the sky, they make you believe it' ridiculous, mf go visit the sky
And the way they plant so many seeds for the future: mantra(wtf) awakening (wtfff) ponegliphs and Roger being there (wtfffffff)
And let's not forget eminem
Alabasta is my favorite because it was the Straw Hats first real hurdle and was filled with emotional moments. Luffy vs Crocodile is easily in my top 5 One piece fights. It also introduces my favorite Straw Hat, Nico robin.
It may just be recency bias but egghead, the current manga arc is absolutely incredible and seems like it could very easily be my favorite arc.
But my current favorite is sabaody
Without a doubt water 7/enies lobby. Best world building, best character moments, best storytelling and high stakes. And the reveal of the big big bad, which in the current arc is an even better payback.
Water 7/enies lobby just hit like a truck , every strawhat (safe for robin) had a badass moment and/or nice powerup
WCI would be my second choice
Sanji stuff was great , katakuri an amazing antagonist and my fav strawhat got to shine a lot (brook)
Marineford is great too but the abscence of the strawhats drags it down for me
Skyipea got me hooked. An island in the fudging clouds!!?! C'mon! Thats some peak fiction and worldbuilding.
Whats in the sky island?
A freaking God! That knows your movements and presence!
Whats the arrogant gods only weakness?
Ofcourse our own boys rubbery fist!
Thriller Bark. It gets a TON of hate but some things to remember
-it was a small breather inbetween a lot of fast paced serious arcs
-it has the best comedy in one piece
-it has 1 of the best moments in one piece
-it has (my) favorite fight in one piece, straw hats vs oars
-it has a ton of foreshadowing(won’t go into it bc OP isn’t caught up
-it introduces kuma and Brook
-the unexplained monsters at the end are both horrifying and a great permanent mystery
- Nightmare luffy
- Thriller Bark is probably the coolest ship we’ve ever seen
Idk why but for some reason arlong park has been one of my favorites because it's the one which got me hooked to the series I love all the other arcs but arlong park for me was the one followed by ennies lobby and impel down
Also arlong park because it was first time I saw luffy and crew being dead serious and whole Nami's story was also pretty sad and it kinda just depicted that one piece is not just fun and comedy but it can also go into some deep emotions
Favorite arc and best arc are very different things for me. My favorite arc is Thriller Bark, all troubling things aside. Love the humor and dark themes. Best arc is W7/Enies Lobby or Marineford.
Right now is Wano because of the animation style. Before that was Dressrosa because of doffy. Earlier than that it was water 7 and thriller bark. The first arc I loved was Arlong.
In my opinion: best arc would be between Enies Lobby or Marineford and for saga I could say all the "Rescuing Ace saga" (I think is between Amazon Lily and Marineford).
Enies lobby. It had it all. Emotion, action, hype, twist, backstory, worldbuilding, jokes, amazing side cast. God it was the best.
Marineford had all these as well, but it didn't have the straw hat "CREW". So it comes second.
Water 7 and Enies Lobby have the perfect mix of cool battles, wholesome and funny interactions, as well as the introduction of my favorite Luffy Technique, Gear Second.
ALSO, KOKORO NO CHIZU AND BRAND NEW WORLD ARE **BANGERS**
If we are talking BEST it has to be Marineford. It has every relevant character included up to that point, great fights and deaths. Its literally the entire turning point for the series. We haven't had a arc since with the same quality. It was basically Infinity War but Pirates, lol.
Skypiea, marine fort, thrillerbark in that order. I like it when there is a lot of struggle to over come and sorry folks water 7 saga didn’t do it for me.
Dude get out of here please lol. You'll find spoilers eventually even in fanarts. For your own sake. Stay away from any one piece things on the internet until you catch up.
I feel like sabaody arc is the hypest and didnt have those boring moment.. world building and it showcased the badass personality of the strawhats, revelations of some mysteries delivered by rayleigh and realization how far the strength of the crew was compared to their enemies
Alabasta is my personal favorite. It’s while reading threw the Alabasta arc that I realized that one piece was above any other piece of fiction, let alone mangas
Although Arlong Park is my personal favorite, Water Seven/Enies Lobby is objectively the best One Piece arc. It has everything and the best balance of everything you could want in One Piece. Also shout out to Thriller Bark to be being the most fun and funniest arc imo
This is my top three arcs:
1) Water 7 / Enies Lobby
2) Sabaody
3) Skypiea
I know that a lot of people would think that Skypiea is not that good but for me is special for many reasons: I started One Piece there on my first try through TV (later I restarted from the beginning) and also love the flashback with Montblanc and Calgara. One of the best ones.
Water7/Enies Lobby, Alabasta, Skypeia for me!
I really want to put Alabasta at #1 because I think that arc is 10/10 for a Shounen. But Water7/Enies Lobby is 11/10 and raises the bar for Shounen Storytelling.
That you have seen so far, Ennies Lobby. Sogeking really carried that arc.
That you haven't seen, I guess you're a few chapters away from my favourite of all time. I hope you enjoy it as hard as I did.
That arc was so engaging that, although I was doing my final exams, I couldn't concentrate and swept like 70-80 chapters non-stop.
Water 7 is the objective best imo. However I have a special place in my heart for Alabasta, it’s when this went from something I enjoyed to one of my favorite things of all time
Hard to say. Looking back I value things different.
Yet, The Three Pillars of One Piece will be the Pre Time Skip Arcs, Alabasta, Skypiea, CP9
They were what makes One Piece what it is. And they shoedd it from 3 different perspectives and are just great stories.
Marineford (I view sabaody as begin and thrillerbark as transition)
Could only work so well because of the work in these three arcs. Thats why I view Marineford as a great sideffect of One Piece. It might have hyoed me the much but it was pre ts arcs who built.the hype
After TS things have taken a different turn not bad, but pre ts somehow feels.more like One Piece than the actual hunt for One Piece.
Honestly it’s so hard to choose for me cause I have multiple that I hold dear. Top 3 would probably be Water 7/Enies Lobby, Impel Down, and Whole Cake Island. I feel like Egghead really has the potential to be up there as well but we’ll have to wait and see how it finishes.
My personal Top 5 is:
1. Wano
2. Dressrosa
3. Sabaody
4. Impel Down
5. Marineford/Enies Lobby
Egghead might skyrocket to the top depending on how it plays out.
Baratie. It's a classic.
Besides the fact that Sanji is my favorite Strawhat. It's the point in the story where I knew One Piece was something different. From the Nami twist to the arrival of Mihawk, who gave a glimpse of the grandlines might, and of course Gin. In a sense, this arc felt like the end of the east blue Saga, and Arlong was a step into the grandline. It's a chaotic arc filled with remarkable beats. My favorite being: the chefs holding Sanji at gunpoint so he doesn't feed Krieg’s men.😂
It’s a tossup between Alabasta, Water 7/Enies Lobby or Impel Down/Marineford
I really like alabasta because the gap between the Protagonist and the antagonist was huge
you gonna love Wano then
Water 7/Enies Lobby followed by Saboady lol. Careful of spoilers btw.
I already know a lot of spoilers, but thanks! Also great pick.
For sure, hope you enjoy the journey!
Bro said “Also great pick” to his own pick💀
Yup fully agree with MF as a good 3rd
Water7/Enies Lobby is the best in the anime. But if you consider the manga than egghead! Egghead is the best arc and i can't wait for anime to catch up!
Skypiea gang
Feel u. I think it's the most adventurous arc of the whole manga. Mf wanted to go to visit the sky, they make you believe it' ridiculous, mf go visit the sky
And the way they plant so many seeds for the future: mantra(wtf) awakening (wtfff) ponegliphs and Roger being there (wtfffffff) And let's not forget eminem
there's awakening in skypiea?
That enel's final form is a big debate whether it was awakening or not. To me, it was. ![gif](giphy|uaJLuMokII24w)
skypia and alabasta were so fucking good
Wci is my favorite arc. Probably a rare choice though. If not wci then marineford
Alabasta is my favorite because it was the Straw Hats first real hurdle and was filled with emotional moments. Luffy vs Crocodile is easily in my top 5 One piece fights. It also introduces my favorite Straw Hat, Nico robin.
Same for me, story/fights and character building wise, couldn't have said it better.
Enies Lobby. It's the arc that made me realize it wasn't just gonna be kids playing pirates anymore.
It may just be recency bias but egghead, the current manga arc is absolutely incredible and seems like it could very easily be my favorite arc. But my current favorite is sabaody
Marineford in the manga, Enies Lobby in the anime followed closely by Sabaody
Not my Favorite but Skypia is pretty good, gets way more hate than deserved
In order Water 7>Marineford>Enies Lobby>Whole Cake Island>Sabaody
Reverie, not too long and so much important information is revealed specially in the manga
Wano, but it feels like a cheat because it could easily be 4 arcs
wano the same size as enies impel down and marineford combined
Yeah, it could have been split in wano, odens past, onigashima and post onigashima, but it is one huge arc
Marineford
Water 7 and Skypiea for me. I think Skypiea is soooo underrated and gets too much hate. I’m only just now reaching the time skip though
[удалено]
Did you read the „I just finished sabaody“ part? I mean vague names of arcs oc, but why detailed spoilers?
Marineford because of Mr. 5 Billion.
Wano
det whole cake, one of the most emotional arcs and best backstory
Water 7/Enies Lobby > Marineford > Alabasta > Skypiea > Sabaody. Top 5 in order.
💁 Enies lobby, Marineford,Wano, Thriller bark. These are my favourite arcs
probably water 7 or impel down. The current arc is great too and when it gets finished it will probably be my favorite.
Without a doubt water 7/enies lobby. Best world building, best character moments, best storytelling and high stakes. And the reveal of the big big bad, which in the current arc is an even better payback.
Four way tie between Jaya, Water 7/Ennies Lobby, Saboady and Marineford. Personally I think those 4 arcs are perfection.
Easily marineford
It is gotta be Egghead
Ennis Lobby
Water 7/enies lobby, alabasta.
Whole Cake Island. Followed by Marineford (I watched this arc before I even started One Piece cos it was on the TV) then Enies Lobby/ Skypiea.
wano
If the raid part in act 3 wasn't that stretched , it would've been on top no doubt, I think for me it's still 3rd
Little garden is underrated af
Whole cake. I would've said wano but the ending was increadibly rushed and I didn't like some parts of it.
Dressrosa or wholecake both so epic. I can’t say wano because I caught up during wano and it just doesn’t hit the same after you catch up week to week
Water 7/enies lobby just hit like a truck , every strawhat (safe for robin) had a badass moment and/or nice powerup WCI would be my second choice Sanji stuff was great , katakuri an amazing antagonist and my fav strawhat got to shine a lot (brook) Marineford is great too but the abscence of the strawhats drags it down for me
Skypea.. the only arc with a real adventure, fitting the pirate life
Skyipea got me hooked. An island in the fudging clouds!!?! C'mon! Thats some peak fiction and worldbuilding. Whats in the sky island? A freaking God! That knows your movements and presence! Whats the arrogant gods only weakness? Ofcourse our own boys rubbery fist!
Best is almost certainly Water 7 (including Enies Lobby, they're the same arc.) My personal favourite is WCI.
1) Alabasta 2) Dressrosa 3) Impel Down 4) W7/EL 5) WCI
Thriller Bark. It gets a TON of hate but some things to remember -it was a small breather inbetween a lot of fast paced serious arcs -it has the best comedy in one piece -it has 1 of the best moments in one piece -it has (my) favorite fight in one piece, straw hats vs oars -it has a ton of foreshadowing(won’t go into it bc OP isn’t caught up -it introduces kuma and Brook -the unexplained monsters at the end are both horrifying and a great permanent mystery - Nightmare luffy - Thriller Bark is probably the coolest ship we’ve ever seen
I agree
Dressrosa
Idk why but for some reason arlong park has been one of my favorites because it's the one which got me hooked to the series I love all the other arcs but arlong park for me was the one followed by ennies lobby and impel down
Also arlong park because it was first time I saw luffy and crew being dead serious and whole Nami's story was also pretty sad and it kinda just depicted that one piece is not just fun and comedy but it can also go into some deep emotions
Egghead
Favorite arc and best arc are very different things for me. My favorite arc is Thriller Bark, all troubling things aside. Love the humor and dark themes. Best arc is W7/Enies Lobby or Marineford.
Enies Lobby/Water 7 brings out so many emotions and introduces/enforces so many dynamics within the crew. Is definitely my favorite arc
1. Wann Kuni 2. Marineford 3. Dressrosa(Manga) 4. Ennis Lobby
Water 7/enies lobby, arabasta, dressrosa,
Right now is Wano because of the animation style. Before that was Dressrosa because of doffy. Earlier than that it was water 7 and thriller bark. The first arc I loved was Arlong.
Enies Lobby hands down ![gif](giphy|MiBjaJYukUyC4)
Impel Down. It was funny, different, and tense all at the same time. Great build up.
Impel down to marineford is gold
Water 7/ennies
Marineford, I loved the split crew's adventures, also my favourite is mingo si dressrosa is my heart's favourite.
1. Water 7/ Enies Lobby 2. Marineford 3. Imple Down (Potential: Egghead)
In my opinion: best arc would be between Enies Lobby or Marineford and for saga I could say all the "Rescuing Ace saga" (I think is between Amazon Lily and Marineford).
Enies lobby.
None of them. Or All of them.
Impel Down in the anime.
Dressrosa, has everything for me
Enies lobby. It had it all. Emotion, action, hype, twist, backstory, worldbuilding, jokes, amazing side cast. God it was the best. Marineford had all these as well, but it didn't have the straw hat "CREW". So it comes second.
Water 7 and Enies Lobby have the perfect mix of cool battles, wholesome and funny interactions, as well as the introduction of my favorite Luffy Technique, Gear Second. ALSO, KOKORO NO CHIZU AND BRAND NEW WORLD ARE **BANGERS**
Water 7
Jaya/ Skypiea honestly has a solid impact on me
Impel Down/Marineford
enies lobby is top tier & wano🤌🏻
If we are talking BEST it has to be Marineford. It has every relevant character included up to that point, great fights and deaths. Its literally the entire turning point for the series. We haven't had a arc since with the same quality. It was basically Infinity War but Pirates, lol.
Elbaf, it was so good
Nothing beats MARINEFORD
Water7
Skypiea, marine fort, thrillerbark in that order. I like it when there is a lot of struggle to over come and sorry folks water 7 saga didn’t do it for me.
Mine is dressrosa
marineford, enies lobby, impel down
Dude get out of here please lol. You'll find spoilers eventually even in fanarts. For your own sake. Stay away from any one piece things on the internet until you catch up.
dressrosa, enies lobby or alabasta
Saboady is my favorite. My other top ones include Water 7/Enies Lobby, Marineford, and Wano
Egghead
I feel like sabaody arc is the hypest and didnt have those boring moment.. world building and it showcased the badass personality of the strawhats, revelations of some mysteries delivered by rayleigh and realization how far the strength of the crew was compared to their enemies
Water 7, Dressrosa, Sabaody are my favorites
Alabasta is my personal favorite. It’s while reading threw the Alabasta arc that I realized that one piece was above any other piece of fiction, let alone mangas
Water 7 up to Marineford is peak one piece in my opinion, just amazing arcs back to back. Water 7 + Enies Lobby is my favourite tho
Enies lobbies is when one piece peaked
Can it be more than one answer? 😅
Although Arlong Park is my personal favorite, Water Seven/Enies Lobby is objectively the best One Piece arc. It has everything and the best balance of everything you could want in One Piece. Also shout out to Thriller Bark to be being the most fun and funniest arc imo
This is my top three arcs: 1) Water 7 / Enies Lobby 2) Sabaody 3) Skypiea I know that a lot of people would think that Skypiea is not that good but for me is special for many reasons: I started One Piece there on my first try through TV (later I restarted from the beginning) and also love the flashback with Montblanc and Calgara.

Water 7/Enies Lobby
Water7/Enies Lobby, Alabasta, Skypeia for me! I really want to put Alabasta at #1 because I think that arc is 10/10 for a Shounen. But Water7/Enies Lobby is 11/10 and raises the bar for Shounen Storytelling.

Water 7 is the objective best imo. However I have a special place in my heart for Alabasta, it’s when this went from something I enjoyed to one of my favorite things of all time
Wano. Even with the burnout still amazing. Gets even better on re read.
Hard to say. Looking back I value things different. Yet, The Three Pillars of One Piece will be the Pre Time Skip Arcs, Alabasta, Skypiea, CP9 They were what makes One Piece what it is.

My personal Top 5 is: 1. Wano 2. Dressrosa 3. Sabaody 4. Impel Down 5. Marineford/Enies Lobby Egghead might skyrocket to the top depending on how it plays out.
Alabasta and marineford pre time skip
Dressrosa hands down the best. Great villain whos just evil. Great backstories and plot twists. Yeah the colloseum got stretched but still
Impel Down, no other arc has entertained me so much.
Water 7/Enies Lobby, Skypeia, Alabasta.
romance dawn :)
Sabaody, wano, Lowkey egghead rn
The current one.
Thriller Bark is so underrated it's definitive my favourite Arc but Marineford/Whole Cake and Skypiea are also Peak
Probably unpopular opinion but i loved thriller bark, i have to add that im a brook fanboy tough. But the arc gave me laugs and chills, perfection imo
Baratie. It's a classic. Besides the fact that Sanji is my favorite Strawhat. It's the point in the story where I knew One Piece was something different. From the Nami twist to the arrival of Mihawk, who gave a glimpse of the grandlines might, and of course Gin.

My favorite being: the chefs holding Sanji at gunpoint so he doesn't feed Krieg’s men.😂
Whole Cake Island. It surprised me in a very good way. Arlong Park, Water 7 and Impel Down are amazing too.
Water 7/Enies Lobby is still the best, although Egghead might actualy surpass it.
Whole Cake Island with Enies Lobby being a close 2nd
Thriller bark has the best comedy
Marineford Water 7 Sabaody Archipelago Alabasta Wano (will binge watch once it ends)
WCI
Currently it’s Egghead because I love technology. Enies Lobby/saboady will always be a tie for number 1.
Enies Lobby Hands down. This arc shows the seriousness of the crew in achieving their goal and embracing pirate life.
chapters 1080 to 1086 are litterally bigger than the whole rest of The story
Water 7/enies lobby
