One Piece Filme 06: Barão Omatsuri e a Ilha Secreta

One piece: baron omatsuri and the secret island Is what happens when you go off script and give a talented director the ability to tell the story he's want, with the characters We enjoy. It is amazing.

From the first minute you know something is different, the animation and character style is something distinct from the usual one piece we know, but it works well with what the story is trying to tell, and I would even say that the story would not work as well, If it was the usual character design we see in the TV show.

The movie feels like a dream, in the Beginning it is full of smiles and laughs and happy moments, but the longer it go on, the more Small Things begin to crumple and you realize that this is not a dream, This is a nightmare that is happening.

The movie test the straw hat pirates in way I have not seen before, and pushing Luffy to the limit of what we usually see. Has a different atmosphere and just all around Aura. And the new characters that are introduced are really compelling.

The backgrounds and colors used are just amazing, the dark contrast and the lighting on the characters and world. It's just one of the best looking one piece movies.

There's so much I want to talk about in detail, but that would make this a spoiler review and I would just recommend that you watch this amazing One Piece movie.

Let me just start by saying I am not a fan of One Piece. A lot of people love it, but I can't get into it even after I've tried a few times, it's gone on way too long and I find a lot of aspects of it personally pretty off-putting and stereotypical. But I have a strange relationship with it; although I'm not a fan, I can understand why so many other people are and kind of wonder sometimes why I'm not.

I was referred to this movie by a YouTube video about One Piece's appeal and figured I'd try it out even if I don't like the series, and I've gotta say, I actually liked it.

The first half still had some of the aforementioned off-putting aspects, like the stupidity of Luffy, the over-the-top quarrel between Sanji and Zoro, and some of it still having plenty of Shonen cliches and slapstick comedy. But over time, it changed drastically. It changed from the carefree insanity of the anime series to a more somber tone. Little by little, I found myself actually getting intrigued, and the plot actually felt pretty interesting and I liked the difference in storytelling from the manga where it actually let it's audience think as opposed to just having the plot laid bare before them.

A lot of One Piece fans may have found the sudden change to a dark tone to be out of place, and while I kind of agree with that, I also enjoyed it. As I've said, the general tone of One Piece really turned me off, but this movie actually had a tone that kept me intrigued, especially in the second half. And some of the new characters were actually pretty interesting and the main characters got different characterizations as time went on. The villain himself might've been a little over the top, but honestly, the conflict he created was fun to watch.

There were some parts I still didn't like though, like the villain himself who had motivation for his actions, but it didn't completely make sense. And for the second half, Luffy (the character I found most annoying) had screen time dominance. I think this could've been a little better if it wasn't a property of One Piece, but an original movie instead.

That aside, though, the animation is gorgeous. The characters got some slight redesigns that look pretty cool, the movement is very fluid, especially in fight scenes, and there's few if any still shots or stiff movements that are common in tv anime. Also, it seems to have a similar animation style at times to Studio Ghibli. So it's pretty much a combination of Studio Ghibli and a really high budget anime.

All in all, it's not a perfect movie by any means, I think it would've been better if it was an original property or something rather than a spin-off of One Piece, especially considering director Mamoru Hosoda's talent in the field of animation. But still, I think it was interesting, if One Piece in general took a similar style of tone, I might like it better. The first half might've still been a little off-putting to me, but the second half was awesome.

This is the best one piece movie i've watched, i absolutely love the art direction and the character designs, they dont stray too far from the series and in my opinion actually improve them, the movie starts out as every other one piece adventure, the straw hats make jokes and play around but around 50 minutes in the movie starts to take a turn to a much darker plot, sometimes even kinda scary, the story is not the most innovative one but it is still great 9/10

The StrawHat Pirates were invited to a Resort Island, owned by Baron Omatsuri. It was a great opportunity for everyone to take a brake from traveling the Grand Line. After a big welcoming from the locals. Our heroes found out that in order to have their relaxation on this island. They must pass a few contests offered by the locals. The whole island has a mystery to it. As Luffy encounters a mysterious man, Chopper encounters a family, & Robin who noticed that there aren't an flowers populated on the island.

This movie's theme separates itself from the other One Piece titles. As the story to it is more grim like. And the animation gives the characters a new style. There are a lot of good scenes in this flick. Including violence, comedy, and suspense. Most of the characters in this movie a unusual. It may not look too much like the TV series. But it's still One Piece.

This movie in special gave me chills for the first time that I watched but, in general at his one piece movie has this factor that non of other one piece movies have, and it is the wow factor that correlates very well with the plot that they show during the film, and another aspect that is very well used in the film is the suspense that connects with the darkness of the film always from the beginning and the fact of the animation adds a lot to it in the way you see the story develop in the film because it adds much to how the character feels in certain situations such as happiness, sadness and despair.
