| 18 | * Nothing beats the original opening song, [[https://youtu.be/b73GuxRPWV4 "We Are!"]], by Hiroshi Kitadani, which can in many respects be considered the series' theme song. While ''One Piece'' has many great opening and ending songs, this is the only one that sounds apart from mainstream J-music, and more like something specifically written for the show (it was composed by Kouhei Tanaka, after all). It's cheery, upbeat, and has a great singer, and the accompanying animation is impressive. And if you've been a fan of the series for so long and look back upon it, it's bound to strike a few chords in your heart. |
| 19 | ** [[https://youtu.be/q0ov2ZIgC88 For you dubs fans out there, the Funimation version is amazing.]] |
| 20 | ** The version with all the Straw Hats singing together is even better, turning it into Heartwarming Music. (There really should be a page for that.) |
| 21 | ** It even makes it into an instrumental, one of the best in the series. It usually plays after the BigBad is taken down, and everyone's having a good time in the aftermath. Fittingly, it's called, "We did it-Party!" |
| 22 | ** And here's the Animetal USA [[https://youtu.be/crEis2EUTlk cover]]. |
| 23 | ** [[https://youtu.be/W-6TwEhFJfE This 2013 cover by AAA]], made for one of the movies. |
| 24 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8H2Xaa9sN4g It is also used in the live-action series, remixed into a more pirate-sounding piece that combines riffs from the five founding members of the Straw Hat crew]]. |
| 25 | * The intros to the English version of the second opening, [[https://youtu.be/1oF9NAd-Lko "Believe"]] and the third opening [[https://youtu.be/5svxuS3L9_s "Toward the Light"]] are pretty inspirational. |
| 26 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/4_tRVX-uKTo "Kokoro no Chizu"]], the fifth opening theme. |
| 27 | * Opening 6, [[https://youtu.be/7_-2Apr6iIc "Brand New World"]] is possibly the best opening, as one of the few that shows exciting scenes from the current arc. |
| 28 | %%* Opening 8, [[https://youtu.be/OCGIWbAD9RQ "Crazy Rainbow Star"]], definitely needs acknowledgment. |
| 29 | * [[https://youtu.be/naDVfLc0iFY "Jungle P" by 5050]] (the 9th opening) is an epic yet catchy song that fits the [[HalloweenEpisode Thriller Bark Arc]] like a glove. |
| 30 | * The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qk5GRt5Fvs Ten Year Anniversary remix of "We Are"]]. Knowing that an anime has lasted for ten years and is still going strong is definitely a triumphant moment for fans. |
| 31 | * [[https://youtu.be/2AfIQX8YUVw "Share The World"]] by Music/{{TVXQ}} continues One Piece's legacy of having great openings. And you know Music/{{Hyadain}}, the guy who does a whole lot of awesome Video Game remixes? [[http://www.destructoid.com/remixer-hyadain-is-actually-a-seasoned-japanese-composer-173030.phtml He's actually a professional composer, his real name is Kenichi Mayamada, and he composed "Share the World".]] AWESOME. |
| 32 | * The 12th opening, [[https://youtu.be/26WEsBE2nas "Kaze wo Sagashite"]] ("Search for the Wind") definitely upholds the standard for great ''One Piece'' music. In addition, the [[https://youtu.be/yvc5w9aisWU TV version]] is accompanied with epic animation to set up for the Marineford Arc. An awesome sort of EasterEgg is that, Marineford Arc animations aside, many of the scenes at the beginning of the animation with the Straw Hat group are actually animations of color spreads found in the manga, [[MoodWhiplash which quickly turns to the events of Impel Down]]. |
| 33 | * If we must speak of the new ''One Piece'' songs, we must not soon forget the 13th opening: [[https://youtu.be/8QHmMwqY5Lc "One Day"]] by The ROOTLESS. It fits the epic and tense feel of the Marineford saga, and also describes the brotherly relationship between Luffy and Ace quite nicely. |
| 34 | * The fourteenth opening, [[https://youtu.be/vnZuwv4pHI4&t=10s "Fight Together"]] by Music/NamieAmuro, is absolutely epic, capturing the feel and tone of the series post-TimeSkip. Also doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} if you watch the animated opening it plays on. |
| 35 | * [[https://youtu.be/BZnm-UP77OU "We Go"]]. It's a follow up to "We Are!", so you know that would be awesome before even listening to it. Y. Chang's [[https://youtu.be/HtbENVdbkdQ English cover]] of it is worth listening to as well. |
| 36 | * [[https://youtu.be/wykx9MzjL-8 "Wake Up"]], by AAA (the same artist as the 2013 remix of "We Are!"), is so gosh-darn happy! |
| 37 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/wwCDFIuT6AY "Hard Knock Days"]] by GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE. |
| 38 | * [[https://youtu.be/ADrnNtmrTAw “Hope”]]. This song is also sung by Namie Amuro and is considered by many to be one of the best openings in the New World era. |
| 39 | * [[https://youtu.be/t7xHamn5inQ "Super Powers"]] by V6. An energetic piece guaranteed to pump you up for the coming episode. |
| 40 | * [[https://youtu.be/PwVT67T5Xt4 "Over The Top"]]. Now the fourth opening song sung by mainstay Hiroshi Kitadani, this may be his finest work on the series since "We Are!". Better yet, an instrumental version of it is played during Luffy's fight with Kaidou! |
| 41 | * [[https://youtu.be/YFbno_aPm0w "UUUUUS!"]] For Hiroshi Kitadani's fifth opening, he brings out all the stops on this grandiose song accompanied by splendid animation, signifying the beginning of the end. |
| 42 | * Say what you want about the Creator/FourKidsEntertainment version of the series, but it's hard not to love the [[https://youtu.be/RSe8D2wfGKI rap theme.]] YA-YO! [[https://youtu.be/2lEyqm8ePiI Years later]], the original rapper came back and did an extended version featuring verses for the later additions to the Straw Hat crew. |

| 45 | [[folder:Movies]] |
| 46 | %%* Movie 4's [[https://youtu.be/F9L7QAL5m5g "Sailing day"]] by BUMP OF CHICKEN. |
| 47 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/Yznp9MBTd5I "Sayaendou"]] from Movie #7. |
| 48 | * [[https://youtu.be/vrTV-iV5QL8 Both]] [[https://youtu.be/eJn0m7Cf7G8 versions]] of the eighth movie song "Compass". So pretty... |
| 49 | * The Movie 10 ending theme, [[https://youtu.be/hqmQmnwiMIU "fanfare"]], is just plain epic. Unfortunately, [[ScrewedByTheLawyers due to legal reasons]], it couldn't make it into Creator/FUNimation's release. |
| 50 | * The 11th movie, ''Straw Hat Chase'', has [[https://youtu.be/H6cluqutgDs "Break into the Light"]] by the Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra. |
| 51 | * [[https://youtu.be/xeS8M-c8tOo "Ready!"]] from [=Folder5=]. The song's so good it was the main focus of one of the shorts, ''Jango's Dance Carnival''. |
| 52 | * In building up for ''[[Anime/OnePieceFilmRed Film Red]]'', the announcement of ''seven'' different tie-in songs for the movie was made, all featuring the vocals of Ado (Uta's singing voice) alongside seven prolific musicians from Japan, which would all be released weekly up to the release of the movie. [[https://youtu.be/ViOzYSYWCMM "New Genesis"]], the song featured in the film's official trailer, and the in-universe song that put Uta on the map, features an intense and energetic tune co-produced by Yasutaka Nakata of {{Music/Capsule}} fame. |
| 53 | [[/folder]] |
| 54 | |
| 55 | [[folder:OST]] |
| 56 | * All of the Straw Hats' themes are awesome, and fit them to a T. [[https://youtu.be/5Q0qJUQi2BY Sanji's]] is jazzy and suave, [[https://youtu.be/qknEeOCDEvk Robin's]] is sexy, classy and elegant, [[https://youtu.be/bOEtdzwfK58 Usopp's]] is fast-paced and upbeat, [[https://youtu.be/EIm9ZeJ1o0s Nami's]] is cute and mischievous, [[https://youtu.be/SSftkNqh5-I Zoro's]] is dark and serious, [[https://youtu.be/6UUG4uJfBcw Franky's]] is triumphant and awesome (So awesome it was even used ''before'' Franky was introduced), [[https://youtu.be/NS45wcGAO3o Brook's]] starts off creepy, then becomes goofy and happy, mirroring people's reactions to him (At first they're scared, then realize that Brook is a NiceGuy), [[https://youtu.be/0MpBVxz__oU Luffy's]] is adventurous, and [[https://youtu.be/76YVK-C6koc Chopper's]] is cute and happy, curious even. |
| 57 | * "[[https://youtu.be/pUAU0tATCok Karakuri Defense System, Activate]]" is a very foreboding track that usually precedes the appearance of an enemy stronghold or a huge threat bursting onto the scene. Most notably, it's used to introduce Enies Lobby headquarters and showcase the moment when Blackbeard reveals he can use two Devil Fruit powers simultaneously. |
| 58 | * "[[https://youtu.be/5DOrDKVolfI Karakuri Castle, Transform]]" is arguably one of the most intense, fast-paced fight themes in any show, and especially by anime's standards. Played often through the series, KCT makes any scene that much more thrilling. |
| 59 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuESv_zqMT8 Overtaken]]" makes ''any'' scene in which it's played instantly better, because it's usually when the Straw Hats have decided that, no matter how much punishment they've taken already, no matter how hopeless the situation has become, no matter how ''powerful'' the BigBad is, these guys will not back down, they will not surrender, they will pull out all the stops and won't quit until they're dead or have put the villains in their place. If "Overtaken" has come on, you know the Mugiwara/Straw Hat Pirates have just officially declared that SOMEONE is about to get their shit DESTROYED. |
| 60 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/tEy-_urr7T0 Zoro]], [[https://youtu.be/g6BJeUYMYR8 GomuGomu Vs Goegoe]], and [[https://youtu.be/xEqWpQy1uo0 Kihaku no Kenshi Zoro (Spirited Swordsman Zoro)]]. |
| 61 | * May be SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming|Moments}}/[[TearJerker Tear-Jerking]] Music instead, but [[https://youtu.be/3dHBBbZ-wXs Bink's Sake]], or [[https://youtu.be/lbY60BrqmOU Bink's Brew]], definitely qualifies as awesome. |
| 62 | ** Hearing Brook sing a quiet, [[https://youtu.be/vRfeV3Pnb7w ethereal version]] of the first verse while [[NighInvulnerable an unstoppable]] [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot monkey spider zombie]] ''freaks out'' at the very sound is Brook's first SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, making the soft music [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic awesome]] but not really [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments as heartwarming]] as it usually is. [[MoodWhiplash Cue]] [[FlawlessVictory copious]] [[BigDamnHeroes asskicking.]] |
| 63 | ** And here's what the ethereal version sounds like in the [[https://youtu.be/hN2p2ZAVzy8 Funimation Dub.]] Creator/IanSinclair is a beast as Brook. |
| 64 | ** Those who love "Bink's Sake" will love the [[https://youtu.be/g4Sjvdx5Pu0 DcII Straw Hat Version]]. |
| 65 | ** There's also the [[https://youtu.be/y-Jp1I9jd0k violin instrumental version]], which was used to [[TearJerker devastating]] effect at the end of Episode [[WhamEpisode 405]]. |
| 66 | ** [[https://youtu.be/x3L4WDV14rQ The version sung by the Roger Pirates]]. Perfect for the king's final journey. Made funnier with Oden attempting to sing along but clearly not knowing the lyrics. |
| 67 | * [[https://youtu.be/dSfxqXuBggQ "After Eating, Grand Line"]] does a good job of showing the Straw Hats going into ominous situations, and often plays when an episode ends on a {{Cliffhanger}}. |
| 68 | * For many One Piece fans, nothing can top the sheer Triumph of the end of the final Luffy/Crocodile fight [[http://youtu.be/FUmn_ZFHlV4?t=1m21s done to the tune of the New World Symphony by Dvorak]]. Except perhaps, "Ode to Joy" during the defeat of Sanji and Zoro's zombies as Hogback cries out his defeat. |
| 69 | * It's not Dvorak, but the piece that plays during that scene's recreation in Movie 8 (and later on in the actual anime for Rob Lucci's defeat), [[https://youtu.be/Q_AHnFZfG6o "I Will Surpass You!"]], has a wonderful build-up of pain and sorrow before exploding in a triumphant and furious climax as Luffy puts everything he has into his last move to defeat the BigBad. |
| 70 | * [[https://youtu.be/Qu6DO8mZnI4 "Straw Hat Pirates Fight".]] It's just perfect when Luffy and all of his friends are working together and kicking ass. |
| 71 | * The triumphant [[https://youtu.be/M6oJTeVssq0 "Luffy's Fierce Attack"]], or [[https://youtu.be/YPREA9soi3E Three Towers]] (ideal for storming enemy bases) and its partner in crime, [[https://youtu.be/janLNn-YtpM Straw Hat Pirates, Begin Counterattack]]. And to finish with some awesomeness, [[https://youtu.be/xI15eWz8Wec Franky's Theme]]. It's actually a bit from a much earlier piece, but when someone has this as their leitmotif, you know something cool is about to happen. |
| 72 | * It may have come from a [[NonSerialMovie filler movie]] but [[https://youtu.be/omvMWD9e_1U this track]] has quickly become the new favorite for [[TheClimax climactic action sequences]]: Ace's final battle with Blackbeard and Luffy's epic punching of the Celestial Dragon just to name a few. |
| 73 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/PAhvVPSGVCk Fierce Battle! Zoro vs. Sanji]] is the tune that usually plays during an intense action scene. |
| 74 | * While it started out as a funny gag song, (warning, clip arguably has some spoiler material prior to Enies Lobby) [[https://youtu.be/VNyP3uzgRhA "The Man from the Island of Snipers"]] becomes SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic when Usopp [[LetsGetDangerous gets dangerous.]] After all, this is a series about fulfilling one's dreams -- so what is more badass in context than a song about one's dream self? Also comes in a [[https://youtu.be/1L6fAXeBnY8 dubbed version.]] |
| 75 | * The most terrifying combination of music when played to the presence of someone like Bartholomew Kuma has to be [[https://youtu.be/NY8aei-RAMs Desperate Situation]] and [[https://youtu.be/8Ca6GnJOR2k Difficult until 1:50]]. If either one of those pieces are playing, it's usually a sign that shit has hit the fan. Also, [[https://youtu.be/d8GPH3Ugr3Y A Dangerous Storm!]] |
| 76 | * [[https://youtu.be/ukwYRkr1vrY Facing 3 Admirals]], quite possibly the best song from the tenth movie, if not the entire soundtrack. [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin First plays when Luffy stands against]] ''[[TheDreaded the admirals.]]'' |
| 77 | * [[https://youtu.be/_hRzx45krRI Both versions]] of Brook's Fight. Both fast-paced, heart pumping pieces. |
| 78 | * Debuting in the [[HalloweenEpisode Thriller Bark Arc]], [[https://youtu.be/zXlQtrOHS8c The Eleven Supernova]] plays when the good guys are gaining the advantage, or kicking the bad guys' asses. |
| 79 | * Movie 10 introduces a whole brand new slew of awesome music. First there's [[https://youtu.be/3lDEZ_rc7DA Run Luffy!]] which fits the rough, wild nature of the movie's setting perfectly, as well as [[https://youtu.be/dxL1_Ol6bkk To East Blue?]], which starts out majestically, befitting the SceneryPorn of Merveille's introduction before [[MoodWhiplash abruptly shifting gears]] along with the plot. Next we have [[https://youtu.be/4ANaEsE5bdI Begin the Operation]] for when the BigBad's plan goes into motion, and the sad [[https://youtu.be/z-9WR55O4CM Nami's Message]]. Then we get [[https://youtu.be/h1JzlPFeZqA Baby Dance]], [[https://youtu.be/R4fRcygPumY Nami Escapes]], [[https://youtu.be/xRwVExS-Cyw Sanji and Usopp]], and [[https://youtu.be/jlbg6mgnY8U Sanji's Leg of Wind]] (the latter apparently having become Boa Hancock's Leitmotif), all catchy, jazz swing pieces. Rounding out the battle music are [[https://youtu.be/vgDSJo8y9IA Zoro's Nine Blades]] (actually a rearrangement of the much earlier "Gomu Gomu vs. Goe Goe" piece mentioned above), and the appropriately climatic [[https://youtu.be/VNUZPxsVIDc The Final Battle]]. Finally, there's [[https://youtu.be/fQLMmsWbrhw Message of Faith]], showing the return to normalcy for the Straw Hats as well as underscoring the SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} that the film ends on. |
| 80 | * [[https://youtu.be/HuN2RfKlyiw Zoro vs General Maji]] and [[https://youtu.be/rjth9iNBI4s Sanji vs Captain Honki]], both from the 7th movie. |
| 81 | * The music in the {{OVA}} ''Defeat the Pirate Ganzack'' is all kinds of awesome. A shame that none of those tracks were reused for the actual show when it came out. |
| 82 | * The moment you hear [[https://youtu.be/G77OKKTTmX4 Uunan and the Stone Storage Room]], expect [[TearJerker/OnePiece a really serious scene to take place.]] |
| 83 | * The music at the end of the episode where Oars, dying, reaches out to Ace is the most amazing, heart-rending piece. It's called "Dokuro ga Shinnen no Shouchou", and is from the 9th Movie Soundtrack. |
| 84 | * [[https://youtu.be/7IYM37OHyqU I'm Becoming the King of Pirates!]] gives off the sense of joy and adventure the series loves. |
| 85 | * [[https://youtu.be/h7AD5bHc31Q Sign of Friendship]] from the 8th movie. First used when the Straw Hats say goodbye to Vivi at the end of the movie, but it's best known for The Going Merry's BigDamnHero moment in the Enies Lobby Arc. |
| 86 | * [[https://youtu.be/o0qAVrHLndY Dokuro wa Shinnen no Shouchou]] from the 9th Movie. Notable moments when this song played during the anime includes the part in Impel Down where Luffy tells Iva that he's going to Marineford to rescue Ace and, more memorably, the scene where Whitebeard makes an epic LastStand against the marines. Also featured in the clash between Luffy and Don Chinjao, the first battle where both fighters were confirmed to have Haoshoku Haki. It is also featured when Monkey D Dragon puts out the fire on Gray Terminal and invites the Bluejam Pirates to join the Revolutionary Army in the fight for freedom. |
| 87 | * [[https://youtu.be/h4UFrz38E_Y Gomu Gomu no Bazooka!]] (2:00 is especially epic) |
| 88 | * [[https://youtu.be/IbubjaMSqic "Can't Escape, Fight"]], the song that plays when Luffy is fighting Wyper, is nothing short of kick-ass. |
| 89 | * Whenever [[https://youtu.be/njsS7S4U9Xo Luffy's Here]] starts playing, you can expect Luffy to either have an epic entrance or do something amazing. |
| 90 | %%* Whether or not it was released as part of the soundtrack, the track that plays when the fake Straw Hats are gathering at Grove 46 qualifies. |
| 91 | * [[https://youtu.be/q2DdBewWV6U Shuraiya vs Needorusu]] is the song they play when shit goes down. Originally from Movie 4. |
| 92 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/LqOJte2M64o This part from the song Shinkenshoubu]], that plays during Sanji's badass moments. |
| 93 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/1jIOpuqRhEg To the Grand Line]]. |
| 94 | * The second part from [[https://youtu.be/J6HxTG32Iuc The World's Number One Oden Store]] is an amazingly beautiful track, and does a great job of getting across the great things that tend to happen in One Piece flashbacks (Saul's betrayal of the marines and Roger/Rayleigh's first meetings stand out). |
| 95 | * [[https://youtu.be/pUAU0tATCok Karakuri Defense System, Deploy]] is the kind of theme that makes any dramatic scene twice as intense. Usually played whenever the bad guy has the upper hand in a fight, or when there's impending doom. |
| 96 | * The song that plays in various flashbacks (such as the barkeep's reminiscence of Gold Roger) is particularly great, providing a trailer-esque quality to the flashbacks, and sounding great on its own. |
| 97 | * [[https://youtu.be/uHB63PJGV0A Luffy versus Rachet Round 1]] and [[https://youtu.be/omvMWD9e_1U Luffy versus Ratchet Round 2]] from Movie 7. Mostly Round 2; when that plays, you KNOW something big is about to happen. |
| 98 | * [[https://youtu.be/Tvh-rN3wnCU Mother Sea]] is {{Tearjerker}} and [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Heartwarming]] put into musical form. |
| 99 | * ''[[Anime/OnePieceFilmZ Z]]'' adds a number of impressive action soundtracks to the series's music collection, such as [[https://youtu.be/jYxd70URitY "Z vs. the Straw Hat Pirates"]], [[https://youtu.be/8t8oFF1oxCc "Fierce Battle"]] - a medley of battle music for the Monster Trio, and [[https://youtu.be/r4DKyS30pLI "A Grand Battle"]]. It also contains the heroic [[https://youtu.be/UXM-DQQMUI8 "Now Onward to the Island of the Final Battle!]] and the melancholy sailors' hymn [[https://youtu.be/M-o1mqKBg4A "Ocean Guide"]]. Of course, there's other awesome tracks that deserve mention. [[https://youtu.be/uUh6M6SULK8 Robin's Dance]] is a catchy, oriental music played during, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Robin's dance]]; [[https://youtu.be/bu0DsMltAc8 ZEAL]], the opening theme of the movie, and [[https://youtu.be/mPXKZvOFpoY Z's Tragedy]], a dark and sad theme that fittingly plays when Garp reveals Z's DarkAndTroubledPast. |
| 100 | * [[https://youtu.be/afEI64uv_NE The New Animal King]]. A triumphant-sounding tune, fitting for big moments (Vivi's introduction during her coming of age speech) and after big victories (Luffy vs Lucci). |
| 101 | * [[https://youtu.be/TOkvZQknY6E The Marine Swordsman's Battle Cry]]. Serious music for serious moments, perfect for setting up big events (like Shanks' meeting with Whitebeard). |
| 102 | * [[https://youtu.be/tavKnrKiFRQ Musshuru vs Luffy - Conclusion]] is intense and triumphant, usually played when there's a big finishing move. |
| 103 | * [[https://youtu.be/janLNn-YtpM The Straw Hats Counterattack]] is lauded as one of the greatest tracks ''in the series'' by a lot of fans, mainly due to one key [[https://youtu.be/E1lKvFOtdBM moment]] it's played: when Shanks appears to stop the Marineford War. |
| 104 | * A [[https://youtu.be/zkW0q2MXxv0 yet unreleased track]] has been played a few times in the Dressrosa Arc, essentially solidifying itself as Doflamingo's leitmotif. It's a sinister, chilling theme that fits the character incredibly well. |
| 105 | * [[https://youtu.be/E1lKvFOtdBM The Time of Promise]] has joined Mother Sea as one of the most heart-wrenching tracks in the series, and is used beautifully during tragic or emotional moments. |
| 106 | * [[https://youtu.be/nUBWp89ATE8 The Very, Very, Very Strongest]], which plays when Luffy takes down 50,000 New Fishmen Pirates with one burst of Conqueror's Haki. |
| 107 | * [[https://youtu.be/vXXxQ4gQdPQ To Victory]], which plays when Usopp stands up against Perona on Thriller Bark, and again when the Thousand Sunny's Gaon Cannon is first used. |
| 108 | * The New World soundtrack features some amazing pieces used in the Dressrosa arc. [[https://youtu.be/A0e2vMe91fc Dressrosa]] is an upbeat Spanish guitar piece that does an excellent job of setting the mood for the new arc's setting and [[https://youtu.be/6NFQ9iJFg70 Dressrosa's Hidden Secrets]] is a Ghibli-esque piano piece that gives any scene it's played in a haunting beauty. |
| 109 | * The theme for [[https://youtu.be/kBiEZiBKQjc Gear Fourth]] is a standout for a ThemeMusicPowerUp. |
| 110 | * [[https://youtu.be/pfQqUXP30Wo Guardian of Alabasta]] is easily one of the single most intense pieces in the series. It debuted in Episode of Alabasta when Pell sacrifices himself, but it's best known for its use during the Marineford Arc when Luffy launches his attack against the three Admirals. |
| 111 | * ''[[Anime/OnePieceFilmGold Film Gold]]'' has a number of excellent pieces, including the swingtastic [[https://youtu.be/3iu5FL_bln0 Gold & Jive]], the badass and intense [[https://youtu.be/UsBHWIgQQpc Daigyakuten]], [[https://youtu.be/nyNlp1EPK6U Kyukyoku no Entertainment]], or [[https://youtu.be/-LCifiiMSs4 Sakusenkaigi]]. |
| 112 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/9feq908XxTM Fighting in the Colosseum]] plays at the conclusion of the tournament in Dressrosa, when Sabo wins the Mera Mera no Mi. |
| 113 | * [[https://youtu.be/-4CiLvDjUBw Bonds of the Samurai and Mink Group]] plays during the reveal towards the end of the Zou arc. A emotional and beautiful Japanese-style track for the epic scene. |
| 114 | %%* Pretty much the entire soundtrack of ''[[Anime/OnePieceStampede Stampede]]'', some highlights include [[https://youtu.be/i5NZbkEgauY Supernovas Rookies Entrance]], [[https://youtu.be/JzNDr6Twdo0 Start of the Fight ~ Men's Competition]], [[https://youtu.be/YLUymNmEBn4 Luffy's Seriousness]], [[https://youtu.be/cS5Ov-rSmqw Opening Music of the Last Battle ~ The Determination of the Navy]], [[https://youtu.be/ZB0miOhSHw8 A Long-standing Dream ~ Finally Festa's Ambition]], [[https://youtu.be/s9TkMR98IU4 Get Up, Luffy]], [[https://youtu.be/JzNDr6Twdo0 Beginning of the Fight]], [[https://youtu.be/Na8djZNLKmc Luffy the Trusted Man]], [[https://youtu.be/96iiR06INTM and pretty much]] [[https://youtu.be/mbsWgCeScMo every OST track]][[https://youtu.be/j3nTPj6bqgA that involves around]] [[https://youtu.be/r9xAFJ_cYTo Bullet]] |
| 115 | * [[https://youtu.be/Ra1_3KlOZ20 Katakuri's Theme]], a dark and ominous leitmotif mirroring Big Mom's [[TheAce strongest commander and strongest son]]. |
| 116 | * Germa 66 Transform! Both [[https://youtu.be/ge_9QSTJnvY Version 1]] and [[https://youtu.be/AGKn-06QoGE Version 2]] purposely invoke the soundtracks of ''Franchise/SuperSentai'', playing during Germa's brilliantly animated henshin sequences. |
| 117 | * [[https://youtu.be/8uGUVg5bgwI Capone "Gang" Bege's Theme]] is a dark yet jaunty tune fit for a mafia boss. |
| 118 | * [[https://youtu.be/pWM03BM0SDY Luffy's Feelings, Come Back Sanji!]], a heart-rending track following Sanji beating Luffy and refusing to return without saying why, plays as Luffy knows he's lying and demands he come back, even declaring his intent to go on a hunger strike. |
| 119 | * [[https://youtu.be/fP9syWI3HfQ Charlotte Pudding- Hidden Face]] plays upon the reveal of Pudding's true nature, showing she is not as good as she claimed. |
| 120 | * [[https://youtu.be/RJHUQ-YIn_4 Soul Pocus ~Song of the Queen~]], the final operatic tune to close out Whole Cake Island as the Straw Hats escape while Jinbe, the New Sun Pirates, and the Germa 66 fend off Big Mom's crew. |
| 121 | * [[https://youtu.be/t8p0mKhvuuw Wano Country - Opening Curtains, Closing Curtains]], a very Japanese-inspired shamisen track that plays at the beginning and ending of each act of Wano. |
| 122 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNbSYXjVRLs Kaido's Theme]] is an imposing track bolstering the world's strongest creature. |
| 123 | * [[https://youtu.be/7ogkqBjwCdI Onigashima's Theme]] is just as imposing as Kaido, reflecting the feeling of infiltrating a dangerous enemy's lair. |
| 124 | * When it came Sanji's time to transform in his Germa outfit, it was outfitted perfectly with [[https://youtu.be/mjZrs8ar4HU Transform!! Sanji to Soba Mask!]], going for a lighter tone than previous Germa themes to show that Sanji is a hero. |
| 125 | * [[https://youtu.be/W2jLLp6S8bw Oden's Theme]], a high-energy theme just as grand as Oden. |
| 126 | * [[https://youtu.be/6W_f7nnaUbY Oden's Adventures, Travels with Whitebeard and Roger]], an epic track reflective of Oden seeing the world and sailing with two incredible men. |
| 127 | * [[https://youtu.be/wFuhk9H-Fqs Oden's Public Execution]] incorporates Oden's leitmotif for his final moments as he declares Wano will be open and Kaido will fall. |
| 128 | * [[https://youtu.be/Mbb08momOY4 Depart! Nine Red Scabbards]] is a heartwarmingly beautiful track that first plays when Oden and the Akazaya Nine marches straight towards Kaido. |
| 129 | * [[https://youtu.be/ZmTxltmJZqk Kozuki Oden's Feelings - Open the Borders of Wano Country]] plays when the Akazaya Nine, carrying on Oden's will, charge Kaido at the start of the raid. |
| 130 | * Though it has yet to play in the anime, [[https://youtu.be/GO8PhToN7zw Luffy~Awakening~]] is an amazing track. The use of drums and the fact this dropped after [[WhamEpisode Chapter 1043]] only bolstered its quality with fans. |
| 131 | * [[https://youtu.be/o_e_Nd50-wc Awakened Luffy's Performance]] is a great boisterous battle theme, with more than a shade of Luffy's own theme used in it - almost a TriumphantReprise, worthy of a hero back from the dead. |
| 132 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnz09cjnehU Drums of Liberation]], sounding at the end of [[WhamEpisode Chapter 1070]], has a lot of things - rhythm, impact, and the sense that what's going to follow is nothing short of ''awesome''. |
| 133 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A81AKe3Z51Q Duel That Defies Description]] uses [[PsychoStrings screeching violins]] and [[CreepyJazzMusic aggressive brass notes]] to create an intense and oppressive piece that would fit right in with a horror movie or a nightmare. It perfectly sets the mood for the [[Anime/BaronOmatsuriAndTheSecretIsland movie scene]] it debuts in, although the main series never gets nearly as creepy, so the effect is limited whenever it plays there. |
| 134 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW1y8gOAOG0 The Most Ridiculous Power in the World]] encapsulates 5th Gear's wildness, while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-5wiRWFEe0 Gear 5 Battle]] is a more kookily piece that wouldn't be out of place if ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' was an anime. Both tracks are also somewhat triumphant as if Tanaka was purposely delivering on the year-long hype between the manga and anime debuts. |

| 138 | * [[https://youtu.be/fpfUV6kJikk Family]] is a wholesome celebration of the FoundFamily that Straw Hats have made for themselves, performed by the cast, with new versions for recorded when the crew [[https://youtu.be/7Tl82Dc7d4I grew to nine]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N_d4JctUcs and later ten]]. |
| 139 | * [[https://youtu.be/7p10ePHu2Js Sea Moon, Sea You]], sung by a [[Creator/IkueOtani young Sanji]], is a hauntingly beautiful tune. |
| 140 | * The ending of the Romance Dawn Story OVA, [[https://youtu.be/uQoUvV1bGFY A Thousand Dreamers,]] is very heartwarming. It's all the Straw Hats singing together a happy song about their CoolBoat, the Thousand Sunny. |
| 141 | * The [[https://youtu.be/2Hwx9b0xFaI Chopper Man theme]], probably the most adorable superhero song you'll ever hear. |
| 142 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/6F6GWRCjNUE Franky! Guarantee!]] |
| 143 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/LSYP--BugG0 Un, Deux, Kura!]] |
| 144 | * At the count of Jango, you will listen to this beat. [[https://youtu.be/a5yzPqR1xQI 1, 2, Jango!]] |
| 145 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/EAtDnncsWkU This]] character single has had many fangirls {{Squee}}ing, as it is sung by the seiyuu of [[Creator/KazuyaNakai Zoro]], [[Creator/HiroakiHirata Sanji]] and [[Creator/KappeiYamaguchi Usopp]]. |
| 146 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_uVlGHIvFA "Bink's Brew"]] is Brook's theme song, sung by himself or with others. Even the [[https://youtu.be/-4K7WJH1VKY beautiful duet with Laboon]] is as TearJerker. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sandY2FINc It even appears in the live action series as a piano and violin ensemble]]. |
| 147 | * Go on, try to listen to Blackbeard's character song [[https://youtu.be/mzEKfFAbvNQ Now My Hands Get!!!]] without headbanging. [[SchmuckBait Go on. We dare you]]. |
| 148 | * "[[https://youtu.be/yU26yt2fU0c One-World]]", sung by Luffy, is an uplifting and amazing song, with its lyrics about going on a worldwide adventure. We also get to hear Luffy say "Hello!" in various languages, giving off a sense of unity. And if that wasn't heartwarming enough, [[https://youtu.be/pWBNGFLg2hU there's a version where the whole crew sings it]]. If you (somehow) didn't think of the Straw Hats as a FoundFamily before, you will after this. |
| 149 | * [[https://youtu.be/-VzBvWeLbno "Live Today!"]] may start out a little tepid, but as soon as Luffy's vocals kick in, it becomes a very horn-heavy track that almost seems like a direct callback to "We Are!" and goes from "passable" to "amazing". |
| 150 | * "[[https://youtu.be/Vhiujsm79Wg Yujo wa Bannoyaku]]", sung by Chopper, is a very danceable song with enough slow moments to balance its more energetic moments out, and manages to capture Chopper's character perfectly in the lyrics. |

| 155 | * Luffy defeating Crocodile to [[https://youtu.be/gESjBdyvq4A Dvorak's 9th Symphony, "From the New World", Allegro con fuoco]]. |
| 156 | * [[https://youtu.be/VjQrA0usWMk Scratchmen Apoo]] ''[[MusicalAssassin weaponizes]]'' this trope! |
| 157 | %%* ''[[https://youtu.be/L_NTATwEP-g Yohoho,]] [[SoBadItsGood he took a bite of Gum-Gum!]]'' |
| 158 | %%* The [[https://youtu.be/DIuiw6eDr-g Korean opening]] is just beautiful. |
| 159 | * Rather than just dubbing "We Are" into German, they made an entirely original song for the show's first opening in Germany. The result? [[https://youtu.be/vwgie4jJa7o Die Legende]]. |
| 160 | * The [[https://youtu.be/QFsZoCleX3w Italian dub's opening]] is really catchy from the beginning! |
| 161 | %%* The Italian dub's [[https://youtu.be/ogA_vrb6qxc second opening]]. |
| 162 | * The "Soul King's" final song, [[https://youtu.be/5mJ2ZRy51lc New World!]] So kickass that his fans jumped to hold back a force of invading Marines just so they could listen to it. Here's the [[https://youtu.be/ZZ05wrTJ_dI full version]]. And now the long-awaited [[https://youtu.be/8BHFp1dNB1A English version]] by Ian Sinclair is just as awesome. |
| 163 | %%* [[https://youtu.be/Fh9m9un744w EVERBODY ZOMBIE NIGHT, ROUND AND ROUND AND TURN AND DIE!!!]] |
| 164 | %%* The ending for the Special 3D2Y, [[https://youtu.be/tnpt4ly5unI Next Stage]] by AAA, is really good. |
| 165 | %%* Many of the tracks on the ''One Piece Nippon Judan! 47 Cruise'' CD are really good, extra props go to one with a duet between Brook and Laboon. |
| 166 | * [[https://youtu.be/HQ3LVVKwd3M This English cover]] of "Share the World" is just like how Funimation would handle it if they were still dubbing the theme songs. |
| 167 | * Big Mom's introductory VillainSong, "[[https://youtu.be/HJ0zK_EUc-4 Bloody Party]]", is just as cheerful and violent as it sounds. |
| 168 | * [[https://youtu.be/WzGyo6FXwJ4 Zoom Zoom]], Queen and Scratchmen Apoo's song for the Golden Festival. The SugarWiki/AwesomeArt that came with Wano's ArtShift helps makes this song even better. |
| 169 | * [[ToonPhysics Gear 5]]'s HeartbeatSoundtrack as heard in the anime, first in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fC5MKJDW6sc this teaser]] before making its full debut in episode 1070, is precisely as joyous, uplifting, powerful, and ''ridiculous'' as the manga implied. |

| 173 | Composed by Sonya Belousova, Giona Ostinelli, Marcin and others, it remixes some tracks from the anime soundtrack. |
| 174 | |
| 175 | * 01. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9mci2uWBjg "Wealth, Fame, Power"]] begins with a dark and mighty remix of Gol D. Roger's theme, but then transitions to Luffy's theme as a symbolic meaning of one's end being another's beginning. |
| 176 | * 02. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qis5zUBA_sk "My Sails Are Set"]], sung by Aurora, is a lyrical piece that culminates Nami's storyline in the ''East Blue Saga''. |
| 177 | * 14. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx3r5l0ANyY "The World's Great Swordsman or Woman"]], Rorona Zoro's theme, is a Japanese-sounding piece. It gets remixed into [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54u8YOdhZns "Wado Ichimonji"]], reflecting his childhood, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8QMhTJjwq4 "Ronorona Zoro"]], which gradually builds up its suspense before erupting into an epic piece. |
| 178 | * 16. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94w9FF2hQUs "I'm Gonna Be King of the Pirates / We Are!"]], Luffy's theme mixed with "Overtaken" and "We Are", capturing the spirit of the series. |
| 179 | * 22. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBgSqcCFwwg "Dracule Mihawk"]], a majestic piece that befits one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, sounding like something out of ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' and ''Zorro'' with its Mexican riffs. It gets combined Zoro's theme to produce two epic pieces: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7ZjJvzTimk "Zoro Vs Mihawk"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNKpPWPVGKs "Wounds on the Back Are a Swordsman's Greatest Shame"]], both being duels much the scenes they were played in. |
| 180 | * 27. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Xxe-5Fs7qs "Nami"]]: It begins cold and drap, hinting to her Dark and Tragic Past, before transiting to an upbeat and jazzy tune that alludes to her moniker "Cat Burglar Nami". |
| 181 | * 36. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNEAOa8Tsv8 "The Real Adventures of Captain Usopp"]], Usopp's theme, opens up epic-sounding to reflect his bravado as a liar before winding down into a calmer yet full piece that perfectly shows his personality as someone timid yet willing to face his fears to stand by his friends. |
| 182 | * 47. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49InEHxBHlA "Buggy the Clown"]] is mix of dark-sounding suspense and circus whimsy, a DarkReprise of "Buggy's Horror Dai Circus" that befits him and his crew. |
| 183 | * 65. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1yAMfiO-ks "Who's Hungry"]], the Arlong Pirates' theme, is a suspenseful jazz piece. It gets remixed into [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pvu9HoAZcyc "Bang"]] (Rap vocals by Flawless Real Talk) and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUgrk0sBuGI "Welcome Arlong Park"]]. |

| 188 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=PzwmKdANYpg Choose Your Character!]], though repetitive, has a surprisingly good keyboard solo around 0:56 in. |
| 189 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=p7U9XbCmhEY Paradise of the Fish People]], a catchy Arlong Park theme that will be stuck in your mind. Many people declared this song as "the best theme in the whole game". |
| 190 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=zXY0WYId9II Fate]], an intense track for the final battle in Event Battle mode. |
| 191 | |
| 192 | !!One Piece Grand Battle! 2 |
| 193 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=nEhCvtzpfjQ Select Now!]], a character select theme that sounds more upbeat and hopeful than its first game counterpart. |
| 194 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=NoyFZonkVwk Country de Fosha]], the cheerful and catchy theme for Fusha Village (Luffy's homeland). |
| 195 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=k-_WWUFAoiw Hill Road with a Sea Breeze]], a theme for Syrup Village (Usopp's homeland). Based on this progressive tune alone, you know that the composer improved a lot compared to the previous installment. |
| 196 | * [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=GBa__FZOlPo Holiday in the Park]], a theme for Arlong Park in the second Grand Battle game. While it sounds completely different from its first game counterpart, it is still a good song. |
| 197 | [[/folder]] |
| 198 | |
| 199 | [[folder:Other One Piece music]] |
| 200 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWNn24KHPRQ Future Island]], the song celebrating the release of Chapter 1096, the start of the Future Island or Egghead Arc. Done in collaboration with ''WebAnimation/{{Hololive}}'''s Calliope Mori, it's an upbeat jpop tune featuring Mori's excellent vocals and rapping. The collaboration with Mori, a vtuber, also goes well with the "future" theme of the arc. |
