Why love Eiichiro Oda's One Piece over Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto

VS

One Piece now is at chapter 553 and still going strong. The story about a straw hat rubber boy who wants to be the King Pirate captured the fan's heart. There's a reason to why we love Oda's way of story-telling. He remind me so much of Akira Toriyama... well, minus the simple conversations between the character of course.

I haven't met/ knew anyone who read Dragon Ball and hated it. There's just something about the way Akira Toriyama told his story. Must I say, I had the same feeling with Oda-sama. What that's something could probably is? Both managed to keep a shounen + adventure story with comedy touch here and there. They could even cracked me up with a good laugh in a middle of war/ fight. It's a serious business of entertainment.

Naruto on the other hand had turned a bit more serious for my liking. Though Kishimoto had Akira as his idol, he seemed off-track for some times. The tensed of his story kept piling up every week and even some drawings looked so ... urgh, un-done well enough (otooto said there probalities the drawing was done by some un-pro mangaka *sigh*). I still love the story but it lacked the humour side like it use to. Darn the Naruto Shippuden!
