One piece: Jango no dansu kanibaru

Jango's dance carnival had an extremely in-depth and well put together theme about the world we live in and change my life forever for the better. I lived a bleak and sad life but now i see how amazing life is and how i should live it. There is amazing, emotional scenes that are sadder than anything you've ever seen. It has beautiful CGI and voice acting and truly a breakthrough piece( one piece) of media that is a must watch for anyone who exists. It is an absolute masterpiece, i see no flaws. With a well written villain in the form of the navy, the opposition to the straw hats and Jango feels like a realistic extension of the world of one piece. 10/10, absolute masterpiece.

The short takes place on MirrorBall Island, a largely populated island with a giant mirror ball hanging in the sky. Jango(the same weird hypnotist from the Kuro episodes) is looking forward to showing off his dance moves at a Dance Carnival being held on the island. Only when a group of marines recognized him from the wanted posters and started to chase him throughout the island. The Straw Hat Pirates were also on the island, and found themselves getting chased by the same group of marines. All because of Luffy's 30,000,000 Belli bounty. And our friends had to run for it to avoid getting arrested. And in order for Jango to get rid of the marines, he'll need to hypnotize the whole island to escape.

This short was shown along with the second movie. And takes place after the LougeTown Episodes. The animation in it is the same style as the TV series. But I have to say the use of CG made it very visual to watch. Plus the song featured in it is something to dance about.

The Jango fans will be filled with joy for this 6 minute short. Something the One Piece Fans can laugh about. And the fan sub is as easy to find as the fan subbed episodes.

Peak anime,Zoro is the best,I want more. Oda sama is the god of foreshadowing,he is kakoi,nami san will be my all time waifu, goat 🐐 manga, anime,live Action.everything about one piece is sugoi. I can watch every episode 1000 times if it is possible. One piece movies are the best movies I have ever seen. People say it has bad animation which is not true,the new episode have animation which are better than demon Slayer animation. People also say it's too long well that's also not true because I want more episodes of one piece. One piece isn't just funny and action but it's also has dark things like racism,human trafficking,slavery etc.

Jango Dance Carnival is a lighthearted and fun One Piece OVA that was released in 2001. It serves as a side story, focusing on Jango, the hypnotist and former Black Cat Pirates officer, as he finds himself in a dance contest on Mirror Ball Island. While the special is purely comedic and non-canon, it does a great job of showcasing the quirky humor and energetic animation that One Piece is known for.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of Jango Dance Carnival is its sheer absurdity. Jango, a relatively minor villain from the Syrup Village Arc, is given a rare spotlight, allowing his eccentric personality to shine. The setting a vibrant island obsessed with dance matches perfectly with Jango's signature moves, making for a naturally engaging and funny story. The animation is fluid, particularly during the dance sequences, which feel dynamic and well-choreographed. The inclusion of Luffy and the Straw Hat crew in a more comedic role rather than as the main protagonists adds to the charm.

The OVA also benefits from a catchy soundtrack, particularly the song "Ready!" which perfectly complements the dance theme. The upbeat and colorful presentation makes it an enjoyable watch, even for those who might not typically be drawn to filler content.

As a standalone story, Jango Dance Carnival lacks any real stakes or depth. It doesn't contribute to the main narrative of One Piece and is purely an excuse for slapstick humor and flashy animation. While fans of Jango might appreciate the focus on his character, those looking for action or emotional storytelling may find it underwhelming. Additionally, the plot is incredibly simple and predictable, making it less engaging for viewers who prefer the high-stakes adventure elements of the main series.

Overall, Jango no Dance Carnival is a fun but ultimately forgettable side adventure. It's best enjoyed as a short, comedic detour rather than as essential viewing. Fans who appreciate the wacky humor of One Piece will likely get a kick out of it, while others may see it as little more than a novelty. If nothing else, it's worth watching for the dance sequences and the infectious energy it brings to the screen.

RATING 9.2/10.
