Dressrosa
Before the Wano arc, the Dressrosa Arc was considered the longest arc in the series. Despite its slow pacing, the arc captivated fans with its remarkable elements, overshadowing any concerns. The Straw Hat Pirates found themselves pitted against the tyrannical rule of Doflamingo, who held Dressrosa Island under his oppressive grasp. Although the arc started off with a vibrant and cheerful tone, it quickly revealed a darker side as humans were manipulated and transformed into enslaved toys.
The individual battles of the Straw Hat Pirates, alongside allies like Law, were totally spectacular. Notably, the Dressrosa arc marked the emergence of the legendary God Usopp. Luffy's monumental showdown against Doflamingo reached unprecedented heights, leaving viewers in awe. The heartfelt message from Fujitora, expressing his admiration for Luffy, and the formation of the Straw Hat grand fleet added depth to the arc's lengthy storyline. From beginning to end, the Dressrosa arc remained consistently impressive.
The arc's status was further solidified with the reintroduction of Sabo, a significant character in the series. The Dressrosa Arc showcased the exceptional storytelling and character development that have made One Piece an enduring favorite among fans of the anime and manga medium.
