2024 Belated Updated Movie Masterlist

every year, i repost my movie watchlist here and set a new goal for movie watching. it is september now and i only just realized that i never did that for 2024!

instead, i tried to chip away at the 2023 reviews i was behind on first, got absolutely swamped by life (which i promise i'm still working on telling you all about) and never kicked off 2024 officially, even as i have been watching movies and keeping track of them to review here.

so, no time like almost-october, right? better than letting all of 2024 be absorbed into a black hole. and i didn't have a goal for this year, since i completely forgot to even kick off the year with a fresh masterpost, but the upside of that is that i don't have to feel bad about never coming close to my aspirational ideals.

also! i finally gave in and created a letterboxd account, though i'm still working on setting things up over there--and i'm going to keep writing my reviews over here anyway, because this is still my online home.

if anybody wants to read my most recent year in review, last year’s list is here, with movies i watched linked to their reviews (and more reviews to come). for 2024 though, behold, my constantly-growing movie list (split in half because tumblr's mad at how many i want to see):

One Piece Watch Order

One Piece is a fairly easy to watch series in terms of what order you watch it in; you go from episode 1 to the current episode in counting order. Pretty simple, right? However, the chronological order to slip all the OVAs, TV Specials, and Movies may be more complex. Most OVAs, Specials, and Movies are either non-canon or not so significant that you must watch them, so because of this most people just catch up on all the episodes first, and then binge all the Movies, OVAs, and TV Specials. However, some people, myself included, like to watch everything One Piece and also like to watch our anime in exact chronological order. For this reason, I am making a list of every single One Piece episode, TV Special, OVA, and Movie, and putting them all in the chronological order they are intended to be watched. I will list the story arcs in the way they are described on the One Piece Wikipedia, and I will refer to all Specials, OVAs, and Movies by their names on MyAnimeList.net. If any notes are needed to be made, I will make them. I will update this list every year until One Piece ends. Most of these are available on FUNimation, Huluplus, Crunchyroll, nyaa.si, or kissanime. If they are available on none, I will say so. But otherwise they’re on one of those things. Hulu, Crunchyroll, and kissanime are all free. If you’re watching subbed, I recommend either torrenting darkfire68′s subs or watching on Crunchyroll. If dubbed, I recommend either torrenting cloaknsmoke-rips DVD rips (or just buying the FUNimation DVDs) or watching on FUNimation’s streaming site. It should be noted that the only things that have been dubbed are the episodes, movies 8, 10, 12, and 13, and the TV Special Heart of Gold. Every other movie, special, and OVA was never dubbed. Of course, not all of these sites will have every One Piece episode, special, movie, and OVA, so you’ll have to hop around occasionally.

Sea of Survival: Super Rookies Saga

This is part one of ONE PIECE. It encompasses all events from episode 0-516. It is the longest saga to date. The reason part 2 is separate from the Super Rookies Saga is because of the great timeskip. I won’t spoil what that is.

One Piece: Defeat the Pirate Ganzack! This was an OVA not a lot of people know about, because it was made in 1998 and the show didn’t start until October 1999. I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. However, unless it was deleted, it is on YouTube. Since this technically was never aired, I highly recommend saving it for after you’re caught up on the series. However, if you’re desperate to watch absolutely all of One Piece in definite chronological order, I suggest watching it between Orange Town and Syrup Village.

East Blue (1-61)

Romance Dawn (1-3)

Orange Town (4-8)

One Piece: Emergency Planning, A Perfect Strategy for the One Piece I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. Probably one of the hardest specials to find, I could only find it on http://www.anime-ultime.net/file-0-1/3541/One-Piece---Special--vostfr. However, the flash player quality was low and would often crash and it had French subtitles. If you press the Télécharger button, you’ll get a link to another Télécharger button. Press that button, wait 40 seconds, and then download the .avi. Also, since French subs are easier to google translate than non-captioned Japanese, I made an English sub and uploaded it to my YouTube.

Syrup Village (9-18)

One Piece: Jango’s Dance Carnival I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. Unless it was deleted, it should be on YouTube.

ONE PIECE Movie 1: One Piece This is the first film One Piece ever has. This and the next two films were short films that accompanied a short film not related to ONE PIECE. Those accompanying movies do not add to the enjoyment of ONE PIECE, but if you wish to check it out you can find it on the One Piece wiki.

Baratie (19-30)

Arlong Park (31-45)

Buggy Side Story (46-47)

One Piece: Adventure in the Ocean’s Naval I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. However, it should be on gogoanime under the “One Piece Specials” as Special 02.

Loguetown (48-53)

One Piece: Take Aim! The Pirate Baseball King I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. But unless it was removed, it’s available on YouTube.

ONE PIECE Movie 2: Clockwork Island Adventure

Warship Island (54-61)

Alabasta (62-135)

Reverse Mountain (62-63)

Whiskey Peak (64-67)

Coby/Helmeppo Side Story (68-69)

Little Garden (70-77)

Drum Island (78-91)

One Piece: Dream Soccer King! I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. But unless it was removed, it’s available on YouTube.

ONE PIECE Movie 3: Chopper Kingdom of Strange Animal Island

Alabasta (92-130)

Post-Alabasta (131-135)

One Piece: Open Upon the Great Sea! A Father’s Huge, HUGE Dream I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. However, it should be on gogoanime under the “One Piece Specials” as Special 03.

Sky Island (136-206)

Goat Island (136-138)

Ruluka Island (139-143)

ONE PIECE Movie 4: Dead End

One Piece: Protect! The Last Great Performance I couldn’t find this on any streams, not even on kissanime. However, it should be on gogoanime under the “One Piece Specials” as Special 04.

Jaya (144-152)

Skypiea (153-195)

G-8 (196-206)

ONE PIECE Movie 5: Curse of the Sacred Sword

Water 7 (207-325)

Long Ring Long Land (207-219)

ONE PIECE Movie 6: Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island This isn’t a note for when to watch it but a note of recommendation. If you’ve been skipping the movies up to this point I  H I G H L Y suggest you watch this one. It’s my favorite one up to this point.

Ocean’s Dream (220-224)

Foxy’s Return (225-228)

ONE PIECE Movie 7: The Giant Mechanical Soldier of Karakuri Castle

Water 7 (229-253)

One Piece: The Detective Memoirs of Chief Straw Hat Luffy I couldn’t find this on any stream, not even kissanime. I’m pretty sure it’s just the Boss Luffy Historical Special though. However, it should be on gogoanime under the “One Piece Specials” as Special 04.

Water 7 (254-263)

Enies Lobby (264-290) You won’t need to go out of your way to watch this one, but part of Chopper Man Special happens in the post credits of episode 279. Also at the One Piece Special Straw Hat Theater is at the ends of episodes 279-283, so you don’t have to go out of your way to watch that, either.

Boss Luffy Historical Special (291-292)

Enies Lobby (293-302)

Boss Luffy Historical Special (303)

Enies Lobby (304-312)

One Piece: Episode of Alabasta – Prologue I had a lot of trouble finding this one and in the end, I could only find a 2-minute segment of it on YouTube that didn’t have any subs. It’s on nyaa.si, but it also has no subs.

ONE PIECE Movie 8: Episode of Alabasta Both this movie and the previously mentioned prologue to it are not necessary to watch even if you want to watch all of the One Piece movies. They are simply an HD remake of the Alabasta story arc. If you’re watching on Crunchyroll, you already watched Alabasta in HD. “If it’s just Alabasta then why do I have to watch it here?” you ask. Well, the movie sprinkles in some events that you didn’t learn about until Enies Lobby, so it’s best to watch it here.

Post Enies Lobby (313-325)

ONE PIECE Movie 9: Episode of Chopper Plus Chronologically this should be watched after the Drum Island arc, but it was designed to have things from arcs that only happened just now, so watch it here.

Thriller Bark (326-384) Thriller Bark is by far one of the shortest story arcs in One Piece history, with only 58 episodes, 0 OVAs, 0 Movies, and 1 TV Special, it should technically not even be considered an arc and should’ve been shoved in with one of the ones next to it. The only reason it isn’t is because Water 7 and Summit War are already part of the top 3 longest One Piece story arcs of all time. Put it in Summit War and Summit War would by the longest story arc by a whole 18 episodes. Put it in Water 7 and Water 7 is the longest story arc by a whole 5 episodes. While being the longest arc isn’t a bad thing (there’s got to be one, right?), both the One Piece wiki and Crunchyroll agree that this is its own arc.

Lovely Land (326-335)

Chopper Man Special (336)

Thriller Bark (337-381)

One Piece: Romance Dawn Story

Spa Island (382-384)

ONE PIECE Movie 11: Mugiwara Chase

Nissan Serena x One Piece 3D: Mugiwara Chase – Sennyuu!! Sauzando Sanii-gou This is just a 12-minute short that is just Toei Animation circle-jerking themselves to the fact that they made a 3D movie. It was hard to find, so you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gy6PBnr0DY&t=5s, but they are both RAW and 360p. The only reason I’m giving the link instead of telling you to find it on YouTube is because the title wasn’t Nissan Serena x One Piece 3D: Mugiwara Chase – Sennyuu!! Sauzando Sanii-gou, and the thumbnail was a pig from Toriko, so you would’ve had trouble finding it.

Summit War (385-516)

One Piece 3D: Gekisou! Trap Coaster This one is literally near impossible to find. The reason being is that it’s only aired in a theatre in an amusement park in stereoscopic 3D. You can’t record it on your phone as you watch it because the stereoscopic vision causes a blur (plus amusement parks are freaking loud). You can’t access the original file either because it was never released on Blu-Ray or DVD (you could access the file if you worked at the amusement park technically, but it’s not like you can profit from uploading a torrent and it could cost you your job). If by some miracle you can find this via stream, torrent, etc., please let me know.

Toriko Episode 1 and One Piece Episode 492 This is where the Toriko x One Piece crossover chronologically takes place. Watch One Piece Episode 492 after Toriko episode 1, because this episode is a continuation of Toriko episode 1. Although since the One Piece episode recaps what happened in the Toriko part, you can just watch the One Piece part too. You can watch this where Episode 492 is numerically set as well (before epsidoe 491 and 493), but it will feel very out-of-place.

Sabaody Archipelago (385-405)

Boss Luffy Historical Special (406-407)

Amazon Lily (408-417)

Straw Hat’s Seperation Serial (418-421)

Impel Down (422-425)

·       STRONG WORLD

o   This story arc confuses a lot of people, because it chronologically takes place right before Sabaody Archipelago, but is meant to be watched in the middle of Impel Down. You see, in the end of episode 425, a significant detail regarding STRONG WORLD is mentioned, which leads us into this arc. The best way to deal with this arc is to treat it like a flashback everyone is having of the STRONG WORLD events that happened prior to Sabaody Archipelago.

o   Little East Blue (426-429)

o   ONE PIECE Movie 10: Strong World

o   One Piece: Strong World Episode 0

Impel Down (430-452)

One Piece Recap I couldn’t find any English subs of this, and torrents like nyaa wouldn’t help either. I’d recommend either watching the RAW on YouTube (really easy to find), or torrenting the RAW.

Straw Hat’s Seperation Serial (453-456)

Marineford (457-489)

Post-War (490-516) Episode 492 is Toiko x One Piece

One Piece: Cry Heart This is actually 3 miniature specials, but they’re all in the same stop-motion style. They basically recap certain touchy events in One Piece. The first one is Fuyujima ni Furu Sakura, the second is ~children's dream~, and the third is Ace no Saigo.

The Final Sea: The New World Saga

         This is part 2 of One Piece. It encompasses episodes 517-current. It is separated from the second one due to the great timeskip and is currently the shortest saga in One Piece.

Fishman Island (517-574)

One Piece 3D2Y: Ace no shi wo Koete! Luffy Nakama Tono Chikai This TV Special is most people’s favorite TV Special and also commonly mistaken as a One Piece film. One of the reasons that it is so liked is because it’s one of the first One Piece specials to not be a recap or a filler. It’s also one of the first One Piece specials to have an official sub and sub by FUNimation (but I don’t think it has a dub).

Return to Sabaody (517-522)

Fishman Island (523-574) Episode 542 is a One Piece x Toriko epsisode.

Toriko Episode 51 and One Piece Episode 542 Like last time, watch the Toriko episode first and then the One Piece episode. Although since the One Piece episode recaps what happened in the Toriko part, you can just watch the One Piece part too. You can also watch episode 542 where it numerically takes place as well, but it won’t make as much sense there.

One Piece: Episode of Nami - Koukaishi no Namida to Nakama no Kizuna This special is a complete recap of the Arlong Park arc from East Blue in an updated art style and reduced to 1h48m of runtime. “Why put it here then?” you ask. Well for one, the ending has about five seconds of the Return to Sabaody arc. Of course, it doesn’t really spoil anything as long as you know that the timeskip is a thing that happens. However, I really do like the feeling of this special after seeing the events of Fishman Island, so even though it chronologically takes place at Arlong Park, it’s best to watch it here.

Oishi-sa Hajikeru! One Piece Just a One Piece commercial for Coke.

Dressrosa (575-746) This is currently the longest arc in all of One Piece, encompassing 172 episodes. Some people consider the Punk Hazard arc to be its own saga, but that would only shorten Dressrosa down to the second longest arc, with Summit War being the longest. The Dressrosa arc also has the longest arc within its arc, as Dressrosa (629-746) encompasses 118 episodes.

One Piece: Romance Dawn This is not an actual OVA. It is a One Piece video game for the PSP that MyAnimeList mistakenly put in as an OVA. If you want to mark this watched on you MAL, I recommend watching a walkthrough of One Piece Romance Dawn on YouTube, there are plenty. However, it doesn’t really necessarily matter because, like a lot of One Piece games, this really just goes through events you’ve seen in the anime, and doesn’t really add to the show at all.

 ·       FILM Z

o   Z’s Ambition Arc (575-578)

o   One Piece: Episode of Luffy - Hand Island no Bouken

o   One Piece: Episode of Merry - Mou Hitori no Nakama no Monogatari

o   One Piece: Glorious Island

o   ONE PIECE Movie 12: Film Z

Toriko Episode 99 and One Episode 590 (Toriko x One Piece x Dragon Ball Z) When this episode was made, Dragon Ball Super didn’t exist yet, but Goku and the others are drawn in an art style like Dragon Ball Super. Presumably, as long as you finished Dragon Ball Z, everything Dragon Ball in these episodes should make sense.

One Piece: Long Ring Long Land-hen - Ichiya Kagiri no Tokubetsu Henshuu-ban I couldn’t find this anywhere, not even a RAW.

One Piece: Adventure of Nebulandia

Sante FX x One Piece Yup, another One Piece commercial. This one’s for like eye contacts or something.

Punk Hazard (579-625) Episode 590 is the Toriko x One Piece x Dragon Ball Z special.

Caesar Retrival (626-628)

Dressrosa (629-729)

One Piece: Episode of Sabo - 3 Kyoudai no Kizuna Kiseki no Saikai to Uketsugareru Ishi

One Piece: Episode of East Blue – Luffy to Yon-nin no Nakama no dai-bouken

Dressrosa (730-746)

Yonko (747-current)

·       FILM GOLD

Similarly to One Piece movie 9, there’s no place where Film Gold and it’s Specials canonically make sense. There’s no point in One Piece where they have the bounties they have, the weapons and gadgets they have, and are all together. However, directly after Dressrosa is where the information presented in the movie makes the most sense.
