Well first we have to objectively define world building.things world building is NOT>1.) Things to waste time, there are 7 generals with 7 subgenerals each you need to punch to thru.>2.) Tossing in Plot elements that if they existed prior to the introduction would have altered the plot. (Shanks jobbing to sea king plot hole)World building is lore design elements that allow the story to basically write itself, with fanfiction that feels canon due to a natural progression of the lore.like I could go ahead and make up an island for one piece, Its got Giant Robots and Dinosaurs on it, and since theres nothing in the lore that says this isn't possible, the World building is shit.the world building has done NOTHING to restrict what can and cannot be done in One Piece, different Island different world I can do whatever the hell I want on it. so no world building what so ever.Compare to say Terry Pratchetts Discworld. If I wanted to introduce a new element, the series is pretty specific on what i can and cannot implement. what feels like it could be part of the lore and what feels like it could not despite the author being dead and long disabled by alziemers.Brandon Sanderson went extremely rigid with his world building, there are 16 powers (metals) of creation, destruction and balance....which are defined and can be combined for various effects.but it doesn't need to be there. its just One Piece has Garbage world building, you can't think of any idea and just place it on a new island and fit it into the world. island of my little ponies, undersea island, space island, Cake island.zero world building.
>>283205531You're not you when you're hungry, OP. Have a Snickers.
that's a lot of spacing
bumpOne Piece is a shit series, Dungeon Meshi, Shinsekai Yori and Twelve Kingdoms did better
>>283205531>(Shanks jobbing to sea king plot hole)Anon, Oda already fixed this plot hole. Shanks lost that arm on purpose because it had the mark of Satan.
read HxH
>>283205531"Anything goes" actually works in a story like One Piece because of what it's meant to be in the first place: an amazing journey around the world. Luffy's goal is to find some epic treasure, yes, but on his way he's going to see lots of cool shit that defies your wildest imagination, it's the whole point.
>>283208159That was OP until the TS, now it is some boring slog FMA wannabe. Oda became pretentious and the fame got to his head. Fairy Tail is more like what you describe.
