One Piece Movie 14: Stampede

Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hats arrive aboard the Sunny to the Pirates Festival, the world's largest celebration created by and for pirates. Buena Festa, the festival organizer, invites the Straw Hats and all Worst Generation crews to partake in the festivities. Luring even Shichibukai and Marines to its shores, it seems that no pirate or sailor can resist the enticing secrets that the event hides behind its glamor.

The festival's contest is simple: find one of the treasures Gol D. Roger left behind. As the competition progresses, the various pirate crews fight each other in a free-for-all battle royale—that is, until the sudden appearance of an unexpected pirate drastically changes the game.

This movie is pure adrenaline — an all-star brawl and celebration of One Piece’s legacy. It doesn’t waste time with setup: you’re thrown into chaos from the start, and it never lets up. The fanservice is cranked to the max, but in a way that’s earned. Seeing so many beloved characters clash in one explosive event is satisfying beyond words.

The villain, Douglas Bullet, feels like a raid boss straight out of a game, and watching the Straw Hats and others unite to take him down is hype at its peak. It’s not a deep movie — but for long-time fans, it’s a 2-hour dopamine rush.

Mixed Feelings

Plot - 6/10
Art & Animation - 7/10
Music - 5/10
Themes - 5/10
Enjoyment - 10/10
Overall rating - 7/10

I think to argue about whether or not this movie is good is unnecessary since theres a contextual variable to why some might find it garbage and why others found it absolutely perfect; it depended heavily on who the target audience was. If you’re the target audience, you’re going to have a completely different opinion than someone who isn’t. Although my critiques are harsh about various executions, it didn’t ruin my enjoyment of the show because of all of the loved characters interacting with each other. Like yes, the ... movie was a god damn mess, lmao. But it wasn’t made to be a phenomenal masterpiece, It’s called stampede for a reason and the motives were there from the start. It was made to put all the loved characters in one spot all at the same time so the fans could see them interact with each other. It didn’t go the way i was expecting, but the most important part of this experience was that it was fun and exciting.

Plot - 6/10
Like i said, It was mediocre and chaotic in the sense that it was all over the place. But it was the kind of chaos that is normal for One Piece. The the concept of an underground annual pirate showdown was interesting, which was why if they had did more with that concept, it probably would have gotten a higher score than a 6. I think this would have made more sense for an “all-stars” movie instead of some antagonist nobody really cares about or have a special connection to. It would have been cooler to see everyone fight each other instead of having a common enemy that’s insignificant If (based on my assumption) the main reason for this movie is fanservice for dedicated One Piece fans. They could have definitely done more to make it interesting.

Art & Animation 7/10
I actually really like this artstyle and its definitely a nice surprise/update compared to the series, though I believe the animation could have used some work. The fight scenes between the antagonist and the other characters were generally OK, but the way Luffy defeated the antagonists (stronger) form was unsatisfying. It was too underwhelming for what was supposed to be his defeat. The fight scenes between the other characters was kind of lacklustre too. Sometimes the art would look a bit janky which is kind of disappointing given that this is a movie. I also personally didn’t mind the CGI and actually find that the combination of 2d and 3d art can make scenes look interesting. CGI art can actually make things like antagonists or abilities look way more intimidating standing in the midst of 2d characters.

Music 5/10
Usually I have a good ear with music used for OSTs, but the music didn’t cut it for me really. I don’t even remember any notable ones.

Theme 6/10
assuming the message was the typical “you dont get anywhere without friends” troupe, which although very overdone for anime; is not unheard of for one piece. It would have been cool if they actually explored the antagonists past a lot more, but because viewers don’t know much about him other than him being a villain for the sake of being a villain, the message didn’t really…pique any interest.

Enjoyment 10/10
I’m not going to lie. Despite all the plot holes, the convenient coincidences, the mediocre plot and theme, i was still grinning like a cheshire cat for almost the same 2 hours, because i was extremely happy to see all of my favourite characters running into eachother and putting aside their differences and making temporary pacts to defeat the antagonist. I was still reacting to every plot twist, every advantage and disadvantage they were put in. It was still so fun and that’s what makes One piece so great to watch. It was nice to just be able to turn my brain off and watch some cool fight scenes while seeing my favourite characters interact. I’m so heavy on the interaction between One piece characters, especially when characters interact with Luffy because I think the interactions is part of the reason One piece has such a massive fanbase. Luffy is a complete dunderheaded and reckless character, but time and time again people are drawn to him; even those who claim to hate him when in reality have a very sore soft spot for him and can’t help but not fight back when he wants to do what he wants. I love seeing a group of friends doing dumb and fun crap together and getting each other out of a pickle whether it was situation they were put into themselves or because of Luffy’s antics.


Overall 7/10
In conclusion, I averaged this score out to a 6.6/10 and rounded it up to a 7. I think this movie had a lot of flaws, but it was still a very enjoyable watch in my opinion. I think two things can be simultaneously true at the same time, though it entirely depends on you as a One piece fan, or a new comer coming into this. This might not be the movie for you if you haven’t really seen Onepiece before, but If you want to feel the nostalgia of seeing past characters in the series and just want an “all star” feel-good kind of movie, this might be for you!

Pretty disappointed in this movie, because I know One Piece can do better than this.

The entire plot was just a sorry excuse to use every single character in the series without any explanation what so ever. In fact, most of them just straight up make no sense, why tf is Wapol here, isnt he a king again?

And i am by no means an animation snob, but seriously, there is way to much terrible cgi animation to forgive.

There is no comedy, and overall not much to enjoy about the movie other than the fanfare, which doesn't feel exciting because it has no lore to back ... it up.

If you are looking for a one-piece movie, go watch red or gold (gold is really really good)
