View Full Version : So I Switched Over to Manga

I've been watching the One Piece anime for about a year and a half now but I decided to pick up the manga. As much as this has broken my heart because I'm going to miss hearing all of the badass voices and the amazing music from the anime, I really like reading the manga more than watching the anime just because it's proven more convenient to read and because, so far, I like the Oda's pacing a whole lot better compared to Toei's.
With that said I stopped at EP 210, was there anything in the manga that didn't happen in the anime from EP 210 on back so that I can read it? I've been skimming through previous volumes and it looked like Toei just copied and pasted whatever Oda wrote/drew and added filler.

Several sidestories of the suporting charactes are shown in the manga and not in the anime.
The maga shown what happened to Jango, Hatchi, Geatsu, Ace, Miss Goldenweek, after they separated from the Straw Hats.
Other than that, I actually liked the Anime much more than the manga, and that's actually the ONLY time I've found an anime better than the manga it was bassed on.

Well you know I can't believe how much time I've been wasting with the anime. Don't get me wrong I still like it a lot but I think in the past two days since switching I've probably saved myself 15-20 episodes worth or time :P.
Well, thanks for the help.

For me the worst filler time was in the Enies Lobby arc when they made so much retelling of everything over 100 times... It was so long, I consider it fillers... And the Gold Roger beginning is tiring too... No wonder a lot of people prefer the manga. The only reason I prefer the anime is because it has sound and musics, and brings the emotion and actions better for me. But I can say, sometimes all the retelling and a whole bunch of other things are just a waste of time...
