Anyways, as far as a movie goes, both action and plot are a bit more exciting than that of the previous movie for having more secondary battles (there are four mini-bosses instead of one) and the whole super weapon plan feels more epic than just looking for hidden treasure. There even is a mechanical island where they build all sorts of weird super weapons. I mean they make it look so hard just to find the knowledge to build one from ancient manuscripts and they just do it with normal established technology? And where the heck is the navy to take advantage or protect this place? But hey, since when do filler movies try to be consistent? As usual, Oda takes ideas even from these movies into the canon story later on, so later on you actually get a very similar case where Nami is kidnapped and is dressed as a bride to be forcefully married to some creep.
And as usual there is a kid asking for their help … Although not as far fetched as the previous movie, it still abuses the notion of making a super weapon out of a machine island. Along the way they also need to stop them before they complete their super weapon.
The story is just about the Strawhat Pirates trying to save a kidnapped Nami and their stolen ship from an evil pirate crew. Just like all movies, it is a filler mission with a good budget and a simplistic plot.
This is the second One Piece movie, theoretically taking place after Sanji joins the crew and before they go to Drunken Drum Island.
