One Piece has been going incredibly strong for 28 years now, as far as the manga is concerned, and 26 years for its anime adaptation. Through all these years, One Piece has stayed strong, and remained one of the most popular series globally. After all, it is the best-selling manga ever, a title that is unlikely to ever be taken from it. That said, while the manga is almost perfect, its anime has its issues, such as slow pacing, and until the Wano arc, mediocre animation. This makes it hard for new fans to get into One Piece, and has resulted in the One Piece anime being beaten by another series in 2025, Solo Leveling. Solo Leveling is Crunchyroll’s most reviewed anime, and has won various awards this year, including the title of Anime of the Year. This doesn’t mean that Solo Leveling is more popular than One Piece, but the anime is better produced and more liked by fans.
