I'm a big One Piece fan. One piece has thousands of characters many with fleshed out back stories. They all feel fresh and unique and the universe is coherent. But marvel? Most if not all super heroes are interchangeable and the universe makes no sense.

This is not to defend marvel, but 3/4 the women in one piece look exactly like Nami.

That's a perfectly valid criticism of most manga, One Piece included. Especially shonen manga. The "same-face" issue is part of the reason anime and manga have women with crazy hair colors. It's easier to color code a character than give them a distinct face.

Well, not in the live action. If you'd compare the marvel comics I wonder which would be more diverse...

A one piece will at least flash back when your reintroduced to someone. Bellamy second appearance.

One Piece flashes back at least 10 times every god damn episode.

Yeah don't watch the anime. It's terrible. Stick to the manga.

Well I know nothing about One Piece, but the way they do it in Marvel is absurd. I was lucky I had Disney+ at the time and saw Wandavision or the Doctor Strange sequel would have made no sense. And it was shortly after realizing that when I gave up. I honestly don't know why I stayed with it for so long.
