One Piece Review

By some as a successor to the throne of Dragon Ball in terms of penetration into the Japanese market, One Piece is certainly a phenomenon. Print Run Dragon Ball manga series and the recently surpassed in more than 130 episodes, is still strong. Monkey D. Luffy, a young stubborn, ate fruit from the devil who gave them extra strong elastic body. In search of the One Piece, a legendary treasure that you king of all pirates, and finally allowed him to prove his worth, his childhood idol, a disinterested pirate named Shanks. Along the way, take a monstrous army of villains who have a strong reputation sword fight Zoro fights with a sword in his mouth closes, and Nami, to defy a thief. Have crazy adventures together, beat the bad guys and the treasure. This all sounds pretty harmless, right?

One Piece is a completely harmless entertainment. The fights can surprisingly brutal at times, but overall this is pure entertainment shonen action. Luffy and his crew of misfits, from village to village, rescue the oppressed masses and the elimination of evil pirates who stand between them and the One Piece. In a way very reminiscent of Kenshin. Kenshin and Luffy are both relaxed badasses with a heart of gold, which surprisingly was in a position near the outcast and the defeat of the circus-style freak-opponent in one episode after another. If you want something that offers in one piece. If not, a piece that will bore your faith.

Therefore is for fans of action shows formulas is a bit like one piece of fluff entertainment that some decent music and well done action scenes sports. Unfortunately, the bizarre character designs certainly a lot of people fail. One Piece is not a traditional anime style. Otherwise, if you like anime-packed fight scenes, several consequences, intent , oddball humor and a touch of originality, will not disappoint a bit.

 

Akira Toriyama – Dragon Ball

Akira Toriyama (鳥山 明) Toriyama Akira, born April 5, 1955, in Kiyosu, Aichi, Japan is a widely known and acclaimed Japanese manga artist and game artist known mostly for his creation of Dragon Ball in 1984.

The series begins with a young monkey-tailed boy named Son Goku befriending a teenage girl named Bulma. Together, they go on a quest to find the seven Dragon Balls. Goku later undergoes rigorous (and humorous) training regimes and educational programs under the martial artist Master Roshi in order to fight in the World Martial Arts Tournament, a competition involving the most powerful fighters in the world. Outside the tournaments, Goku faces diverse villains such as Emperor Pilaf, the Red Ribbon Army, and the Namekian Piccolo Daimao. Several of the enemies and rivals Goku encounters eventually become his allies and close friends, including the desert bandit Yamcha, his martial arts classmate Krillin, the assassin Tien Shinhan, the samurai Yajirobe, and Piccolo Daimao’s offspring/reincarnation Piccolo Jr.

As a young adult, Goku meets his brother Raditz, who reveals to him that they are members of a nearly extinct extraterrestrial race called Sayians. The Saiyans had sent Goku to Earth as an infant to conquer the planet for them, but he suffered a severe head injury soon after his arrival and lost all memory of his mission, as well as his blood-thirsty Saiyan nature. Goku refuses to help Raditz continue the mission, after which he begins to encounter other enemies from space, most notably the Saiyan prince Vegeta, who becomes his rival due to Vegeta’s obsessive desire to surpass Goku in strength, though in the process, he too eventually becomes Goku’s ally. Goku also encounters Frieza, the galactic emperor responsible for the destruction of the Saiyan race, whose actions cause Goku to transform into a fabled Super Saiyan. After an epic battle on the planet Namek (which shortly after, explodes), Goku defeats Frieza, avenging the lives of billions across the galaxy.

Some time later, a group of androids from  the former Red Ribbon Army appear, seeking revenge against Goku. During this time, an evil life form called Cell emerges and, after absorbing two of the androids to increase his power, holds his own fighting tournament to decide the fate of the Earth, but is eventually defeated by Goku’s first child Son Gohan. Seven years later, Goku is drawn into another battle for the universe against a magical monster named Majin Buu. After many battles, Goku destroys the evil original Majin Buu and the good part of Buu settles down with them. Ten years later, at another World Martial Arts Tournament, Goku meets the evil Buu’s human reincarnation, Uub. Leaving the match between the two of them unfinished, Goku takes Uub away on a journey to train him as the Earth’s next defender.
