One Piece Film Red is more than just a One Piece anime movie. It is surely unlike what we have seen before in the franchise. I’m caught up with the One Piece franchise 100% and was very excited to see this new film that not only featured the mysterious One Piece character Shanks but her daughter Uta, a new character that we would have to see in the original series.
Nonetheless, she made a perfect appearance in the 2 hours One Piece movie and the movie is alone worth watching just because of him. As of now, One Piece Film Red has become the highest-grossing movie of the franchise of all time in just 3 months of its release. But this peak will only get higher as the English dub release of the anime film is still being released in the USA.
The country that is going to give another huge amount to the existing box office will start in November. With the release of One Piece approaching the U.S theaters, fans are surely excited to watch the movie and looking for reviews for the movie. Well, here I am 100% caught up One Piece will try to tell you what you should look forward to in the movie and will try to avoid spoilers as well. Here at Otakukart, we bring you the One Piece Film Red Review.
One Piece Film Red Review
The synopsis of the movie follows something like this, The straw hats decide to take a stroll at the first-ever concert held by the infamous Uta. Upon arriving at the concert, Luffy takes to the stage and confirms that she is his childhood friend and the daughter of the infamous Red-Haired pirate Shanks.
This of course surprises the straw hats and the fans gathered at the concert. Luffy as well concludes that she is not the friend that he once knew and upon learning that Uta is trying to bring a new order to the current world, it embarks on a great journey of conflict among the friends and yes, it also gives an important message that One Piece has been giving for a while and that this the tale of freedom.
I went to watch this film with a friend who had no idea what the film let alone who has never watched a single episode of the series. Yes, I did have to teach him about the straw hats and Uta as well as she is the protagonist, antagonist, and everything the movie has to offer. He was all set to watch the movie after learning that.
It was obvious that Uta was the protagonist from the trailer itself however, it also shows you what she wanted to make which she dubs the new world. Here is a little spoiler, Uta is seeking to build a new world where everyone could have a paradise life with unlimited food and everything they desire.
What we learn in the movie about her villainous scheme is that she is forcing her ideology upon her fans and anyone alike. This makes her come out as something of a “Hitler”. This is what you will see in the movie at one point and which will confirm her as to be a villain where she is forcing her ideology upon them against anyone’s will and that comes to a question, of whether you will have a paradise or your own free will.
In addition to this, One Piece Film Red has something unique to offer which is its musical components. Songs sung by Ado are alone to make anyone watch this movie at least twice. Remember my friend who did not have any knowledge about One Piece? Well, he loves the musical aspect of the film.

The songs in the movie are sung by Ado but each song is composed and written by different individuals bringing a new aspect to the song each time. The genre of the music features, J-pop, slow ballads, R&B, and of course Hard Rock (which Ado is most famous for).
One Piece Film Red has a conclusive rating of 4.6/5 on the internet and as I mentioned previously, it should at least be experienced once in the theater. By the end of the movie, you will be of Ado whether you are a fan of Japanese music or not.
