Nice in the begining, but you'll lose your interest after the crew reaches the red line

In the begining it was weird,cos i was trying to understand why they call themselves pirates and why the design of the characters was so unrealistic( especially the eyes and the hands ). As the story progresses , i found the design very innovating , original in a way, cos it was different from the stereotype japanese manga design. I also think that this anime had something fresh, a new view of the pirates, which is better than the original one. I also liked the fact that they were trying to help others in need ,but in the same time ,while they were fighting to rescue their friends ,the plot was left behind( if we can say that there's a standard plot in this anime ). Even if Luffy states that his goal is to find ONE PIECE( the mythical treasure Gold Roger left somewhere in Grand Line ), he mostly fights the bad guys, in order to rescue his friends and less those who prevent him from getting ONE PIECE. It's as if the same and the same things are repeated. The story becomes even more boring after they finally reach the Grand Line, and it's a total disgrace when the design of the characters( episode 330 and after ) turns into something dull.
Possitive points:
-it has some humorous moments
-it has some nice battles and interesting characters with Special martial abilities
-the design in the begining of the series wasn't that bad actually,and it's different from the Standard japanese manga
-the anime has nice colours and perfect music
Negatives:
-The plot is almost nonexistent
-It becomes very boring and tiring from a point on
-The amime design is very poor from a point on

I'd suggest you watch it till episode 91,then skip to 280 and watch till 311.
