Still, overall, it deserves being put on the shelf next to Texhnolyze.

Hmm I've watched 3-4 episodes of it some time ago, but it failed to engross me.
Can I expect it's style/plot/pace to change in the course of time?

Also, Kino's Journey.

Watched the first episode.
Looks interesting enough, seems to contain some interesting thoughts.
Will keep watching it.

Anyone know where I could find a good dub of Gurren Langan? (is that it, the one with Kamina?)

Just watched 14 episodes of One Piece in a row. Wow. I'm up to episode 62 right now. Might reserve some more time to watch through tomorrow, or over the next week.

I've been putting off watching more episodes for a good while. Finally had the time watch some more again. I keep forgetting how awesome that show is.

I've had to give up on One Piece.
I just can't do it.
It's like the sheer quantity is taunting me.
Why must I be incapable of watching anything that long? D:

It took me about 2 months at max speed.

The first Garran Langan Episode. Thanks toony. Felt like a movie, even though it was actually twenty minutes long. I finally understand the drill jokes.

After 101 episodes so far, I'd say it's worth the effort to watch One Piece.  I'm enjoying it so much that I know I'll be depressed when it's over with.

Goodness it takes a while to get into the good with One Piece.

It's not an "over the weekend" kinda show to watch.  If you want to shorten it by a bit read the manga.  You'd probably get through the story twice as fast timewise.

I don't know if people using One Piece avatars would be valid unbiased opinions for One Piece.

"Naw, it starts good"

It starts with Luffy beating everyone... non-stop with no indication of even being challenged or threatened.

It's rather consistent w/r to style. There's a major change of focus in the plot around mid-length, and the meandering, contemplative pace gets only sometimes interrupted by bursts of violent energy - which is how it should be in my opinion.
This one is, somewhat similar to EP, very heavy on philosophy, only it doesn't force-feed it to viewers, leaving them to notice all the nuanced references themselves.
 
But I'd suppose that if you didn't like the first episodes, it's rather likely that you won't like the rest.

Go and watch the second, it's the best.
