One Piece DVD Season 5 Part 2

Dec 26, 12:00

3 comments

Loving One Piece isn't exactly like being in an abusive relationship—it's way too good to us most of the time—but there are definitely times when it feels like it's hurting us on purpose. Like during a five-episode recap.

If big boobs, plentiful panty shots, and girls involved in super-powered, clothes-shredding battles alone are not enough to draw your attention then nothing else about this train wreck of a series will.

Funimation's new release is primarily for those who have never owned the movie and/or those who also want the original Streamline English dub. Even at 25 years old, though, it still shows clearly why it has long been one of anime's standard-bearer titles.
