A review by lizziepurpleserenity
One Piece, Vol. 1: Romance Dawn by Eiichiro Oda
3.0
Disclaimer: This is my very first manga, and I haven't read much in comic book form before at all. So it is difficult for me to rate and review given I have very little to compare it to - this is a newbie's first impression!
The story and dialogue is ridiculously silly and in-your-face (in a fun way I mean, I chucked out loud several times); the artwork somehow manages to be both pretty (colourful) and kinda grotesque (I'm not personally a fan of the huge mouths...); it's full of life, though there were times I was a bit lost as to what I was looking at; the characters are ambitious and passionate, and there's promise of some solid fun friendships.
There is definite potential for this to become an addictive bedtime story for me! [17/7/21... it didn't!]
