i have decided to finally bite the bullet and start OP (i 100% blame you for that, in an entirely positive way!! 🤭❤️ your love is contagious) but i must admit i'm a little lost. would you recommend, like. start with the manga? the anime? watch the live action and go from there???

AHHH I'm so glad to hear, so excited for you!! ❤️ It makes me so happy when I succesfully spread my passion like this! I hope you enjoy it a lot!

I'd say there's no right way to walk the One Piece journey, I have friends who started the anime after they watched the live action because they liked it so much. If you feel overwhelmed by the original story, you could try that to start.

Though if you want to catch up fast, I'd say read the manga. It has better pacing and it's less time-consuming than watching the anime, I guess. Personally I started with the anime when I was like 7 years old, and didn't get to read the manga until many years later, so I have a very special, nostalgic affection for the anime 🌸 I guess everyone's experience is different! Whatever you choose to do will be fine!
