In anticipation of Netflix's One Piece Season 2 I managed to convince the fam to rewatch season 1 with me, which has been fun. I personally loved season 1, having never seen the original. I thought the goofy optimism and the weirdness of the world just worked so well and left me with a smile on my face after each episode.

Contrast to my son, who has seen a few hundred episodes of the original animated series. It's been amusing to watch him reverberate with suppressed desire to spoil things, but also it's been fun to see him get excited about seeing things spool out in a different medium.

Looking forward to actually getting to season 2 and seeing what's new!
