Whereas some of us have but to lastly increase their anchors and enterprise into the manga’s 1051 chapters (I’m taking a look at you, reader), one Twitch streamer proved the huge enterprise of studying the whole lot of the manga could be carried out in a single continuous stream.
This previous weekend a French Twitch streamer, Ideo, streamed himself studying all of One Piece (together with the concluding chapter of its newest arc, Wano Nation) over the weekend.

Though this isn’t the primary time, or truly even the second time, that Ideo has re-read One Piece, this time he managed to do it throughout a continuous stream. Though his feat is spectacular, Ideo informed Kotaku he doesn’t suggest curious manga-readers to speed-run One Piece if they’re discovering it for the primary time.
“There’s manner an excessive amount of info to remember,” Ideo stated. “It’s higher to take the time and skim [and] study it like a complete faculty program.”
Ideo stated that the quickest arcs for him to learn by way of had been East Blue (which took him six hours to learn), Fishman Island, and Dressrosa.
“[Fishman Island and Dressrosa] can appear to be actually lengthy arcs from the skin (and likewise due to the anime) however […] you get into it with the manga in a single blow [and] the story is so well-written and easy that you just don’t really feel prefer it’s that lengthy,” he stated.

“I actually appreciated the most recent arcs, as a result of I really feel like Oda is making longer arcs. He has extra margin to precise his expertise and his nice writing,” Ideo stated. “By way of pure content material and good characters, they’re simply the very best.”
Regardless of being a “tremendous large fan of One Piece” who’s learn the manga and watched the anime numerous instances earlier than, Ideo stated there have been nonetheless a number of story particulars that he missed completely earlier than re-reading the sequence on stream. Although who might blame him, when Oda’s meticulous pacing usually results in seemingly innocuous info manifesting as main plot particulars 500 chapters down the road?
“After all, I discovered the story manner higher regardless that it was a re-re-re-re-reading,” Ideo stated. “It’s higher every time.”
