Was the 7 Thieves an arc or was that just Naraku?

Not even the best arc in Wan Piss. Dressrosa was better prove me wrong.

>>157446122
Kill yourself.
All these literal who characters doing irrelevant things and fucking annoying dwarves.
Corazon flashback was the only good thing.

>>157440822
I honestly felt like vivi ruined most of alabasta with all her god damn crying. I mean I get it and understood why she was and how it felt but it just got so fucking old she was the one who started the pretty girl whos always crying in need of help in OP.

>>157441342
pretty good, tho I still think that Zabuza arc was the best in Narutu

Also,everything about FMA was god level

>>157448032
Because while being Hilarious it wasn't that good
>I am suppose to expect Furuichi is suppose to be on par with oga
Fuck off

Alabasta is overrated as fuck and Skypiea is better. I got way more emotional during the final fight with Enel than I did with the Crocodile fight.

>>157448556
>Skypiea is better
Literally filler tier they could of not gone there and the story would be exactly the same. Even if you like it for the "adventure" Thriller bark is a better arc for adventuring then skypiea.

>>Enel will return from the moon at some point
Even if he does he is going to get fucking one shotted in the new world Pekmons even point out Logia who think they are unstoppable face short lives in the new world. also robin foreshadowed the void century in albasta first.

>Skypiea
I really hated this arc. Was just really boring to me, and it didn't even add much to the story. I can't even remember anything from Skypiea being brought up again except for the explanation of Mantra haki later.

I'd replace it with Sabaody probably.
Personally my favorite arc was Thriller Bark, but most are indifferent about it. I loved every character, fight, and the events happening on the island. Was just a really fun arc in general.

>>157441342
>Thousand Year Blood War

That travesty stopped being good about 30 chapters in.

with One Piece you gotta rate Sagas, Marineford arc is nowhere near the best arc but the Summit War saga is the best saga

>>157440822
My dear child it is soo sad that you never heard about Enies Lobby...

>>157440822
That's not dark tournament or 12 houses of the zodiac

>>157449094
>Thriller Bark
Mah nigga. I don't think there was anything I didn't like about that arc. Even weird, inexplicable shit like Nightmare Luffy I thought was cool.

>>157449288
This.

>>157450547
please, neuro is shit, just like assassination classroom. matsui is good with bizarre imagery, but a terrible writer.

York Shin is the greatest shounen arc there ever was or will be.

It has no equal.

>>157447477
>not even a single response in two hours
It's because you're right.

>>157441342
Without a doubt

>Golden Age in Berserk
>Chunin exams in Naruto

>>157441342
>Inuyasha
>>Naraku
That was literally the entire show. It was all to fight naraku. You gotta be more specific.

As for kikyo, there were multiple "arcs" to her, depending on how you view them. Again, more specific please.

>>157440822
Namek > Water Seven > Yorknew > every shonen arc ever made in humankind story > my crap stick on a side of the toilet, Chimera Ant

>>157453802
With the exception of Yorknew, gutter trash taste

>>157454024
Chimera Ant is as good as your random Bleach filler arc.
>inb4 but Bleach filler was the best
Yeah, fuck off.

>>157440822
It's not even the best arc on One Piece.

>>157449094
Skypeia is pretty important for end game. It'll get referenced again, especially after Enel's covers story.

>>157441342
>berserk
>shounen

>>157448444
Objectively correct answer

>>157454185
Like I said, gutter trash taste. If If I do take CA arc away, in no way shape or form is the Namek Saga better than Yorknew

And expecting people to come to the rescue for that Bleach filler comment is doubly embarrassing

>>157454330
>i'm new please destroy my anus
Ah ok, people always claim that Bleach filler arcs are the best, now lurk the fuck more.
And Namek is fucking glorious, but why I am even trying to put some sense into your head here, you are probably 16 in the better of cases, grow up and then we can talk.

>>157454670
Kid enamored with how iconic it is when it's practically yet another underdog story with Goku beating up the bad guy.

Glad I didn't waste my time

>Thousand Year Blood War

wew lad

>>157454771
Sure, let's ignore all the build up to the fight and the actual challenge of fighting the greatest threat of the entire universe, ok kiddo, stay in your thirteen.

I think the most hype arc in OP is Arlong, god damn, it's perfect.

>>157454670
>people always claim that Bleach filler arcs are the best
Literally no one says this.

>>157441342
To Ginatama I would add The Courtesan of Nation arc.

Water 7 is better, nothing topped the Usopp vs. Luffy battle.

Arc so great that Oda himself decided to repeat it after the Time skip.

Water 7/Enies Lobby and Arlong Park were better.

I guess some of /a/ still has taste

I don't see it in the lists for Summer, so maybe it's coming this Fall? I unironically hope that it blows up in popularity like the JoJo anime did.

Are we opening this to non-battle shit now? Because that changes the whole question.

The greatest arc in shonen history, but it kind of ruined Saint Seiya since everything after it was just a watered down rehash.

>>157461301

Still less cancerous than One Piece.

people really think arlong park is better? that shit was boring first time watching through.

>>157464893
It got to the main conflict pretty fast, was very on point and efficient, revealed a personal, emoshunal background of many characters, tested the trust of the crew and had the first main bad guy who was a real threat. Besides, Arlong was different because he also valued the life of his crew, while the guys before him were total psychopaths.

Alabasta had too many side characters, fucking Vivi being annoying in every panel, a larger conflict that was hard to care about and half of Baroque works were hard to take serious. Sure, Crocodile, Robin and Mr1 were awesome but beyond that it was meh tier and the emotional investment just wasn't the same. At least for me.

>>157440822
Water 7, though

But yeah, I'd probably go with something from Gintama personally

>>157459826
I like it when the things I already know are good become acknowledged by the general public, shoot me. Plus, more popularity = more merch, adaptions, video games, etc. And since it's a Japanese thing, the western fanbase would have zero impact on the actual source material, there's no danger of the creator changing things to appeal to his new audience.

It would only be a net positive in my life, I really don't care about tumblr fags liking the series in the wrong way, as if such a thing even exists.

>>157465752

hmm, well said.

i'll keep that in mind as i rewatch
