User blog comment:Raptor of Love/How did you get into One Piece ?!/@comment-972068-20111217093542

Anyways, when I was younger I saw this show on Toonami. I thought to myself "this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen." Years later, I started to get into anime. I watched Naruto and Death Note, and I was wondering what I should watch next. I saw a lot of praise for One Piece, and a little after that I saw how horrid the 4kids dub was. I then thought, "this show might not be this bad." So I checked it out.

Watched the first episode subbed, and enjoyed it. Decided to watch the series.

But then I found out FUNimation dubbed it. I rented the DVDs from Netflix, and I came. Every moment was awesome, though at that point I never decided if I wanted to see the ENTIRE series yet.

Then the Arlong arc got to its climax. That music in the background, that awesome walk the four guys did to the park. It was too epic to stay away from. I think that was the moment I decided to watch the entire series, and I also named myself "One Piece Whore".

Though switching from dub to sub was a really awkward transition. I wasn't that much into it till the end of the Skypeia arc, but at that point I was a little undetermined. I didn't know if I should keep going or not.

So I decided to switch back to Naruto Shippuden, and alternate between that and One Piece, switching after every arc. Luckily, Naruto has a habit of boring-ass fillers. I don't mean like "oh, this is a little boring. I hope it gets through soon" kind of boring. I mean BORE-ING. I almost fell asleep to the first filler arc to Shippuden. So I kept watching One Piece, joined the Wiki, and answered this blog.

tl;dr: Thought it sucked, watched it, and not a single FUCK was given that day~
