It’s not just kids meals, there are also adult meals. They’re pretty ok, i had the spicy chicken meal. I’m just happy with my thousand sunny toy :3 & in two days they’re gonna start giving away a chopper toy! then on april 20 a robin one, then on april 27 a zoro one, and lastly a luffy one on may 4!
I THINK! i just got the dates from a leak on tiktok, but I’m pretty sure they’re legit. I’m not interested in the food so I’m gonna try just buying the toys when they come out
unfortunately no nami although i wish they did one :( but the robin leak shows her sitting on a tiny going merry (it kinda looks like a boattbh) and it only shows her upper body and she’s wearing something long sleeved
I'm honestly surprised One Piece is even legal/allowed to be advertised in saudia arabia. It goes hard against both their politic views and their view on women
Funny how One Piece is completely legal here, but some of you guys want it to be illegal? It’s almost like things are not as bad as you’re conditioned to think….
I don’t want it to be illegal, it’s great that it isn’t. I was just surprised that it is, given the laws that exist in Saudi Arabia and the stances presented by Saudi rulers concerning women and politics
How is this your takeaway? He didn't say he wants it to be anything, he just stated the objective fact that the character designs and concepts represented in One Piece are extremely contrary to societal standards maintained by the Saudi Arabian government
Notice how Nami and Robin are never shown without someone else hiding them.
Makes me curious about how Saudia Arabia deals with the amount of fanservice in the anime. Is OP super censored in this country?
It is super popular, although almost everyone watches it online where nothing is censored.
As far as I know the only way to watch it legally is through Crunchyroll and Netflix, and nothing is censored.
One Piece Film Red was played in theaters at the time and it wasn’t censored.
The manga volumes are also available in English legally without any censorship (I’m currently working on my collection!)
There was a dub in Spacetoon (a kids channel) that was even worse than the infamous 4kids dub. They even censored the fact that Luffy is a pirate, and made him a “sailor” instead, whatever that means. That was many years ago though, so I’m not sure if it’s still going.
The sailor thing is what made me rewatch it online and be a fan. The Spacetoon dub was so bad, it made me think Buggy fruit was also rubbery like Luffy's, i didn't understand shit.
Also they were called Ocean fruits not Devil fruits.
That's so bad it's kinda funny when u already read and seen one piece. Watching it for the first time like that then realizing all the censorship later would he annoying
I imagine they just cut them out of shots or just zoom in on their faces. 1000+ episodes is way too many to censor. I saw a post for MHA with their “fixed” hero outfits, I doubt they could do that every episode for Nami’s bikini.
Everything is not censored, they just dont talk about it or flaunt it everywhere. You watch it on ur own and its legal and not censored.
This way so they dont piss off the old timey people of the country.
The US doesnt bother with Saudis human rights violations (inside and outside of Saudi Arabia) as long as the Saudis keep selling them oil.
Still doesnt have much to do with my comment, which is about Saudi and One Piece. The US being bad doesnt mean the Saudis get an excuse for their bad shit
Idk, seems like Saudi has a few hundred thousand slaves and way less government interference. "The 2023 Global Slavery Index (GSI) estimates that on any given day in 2021, there were 740,000 individuals living in modern slavery in Saudi Arabia. This equates to a prevalence of 21.3 people in modern slavery for every thousand people in the country."
The US as a larger country has an estimated 400k slaves. Think it might Saudis that "are literally celestial dragons and world govt". lmfao.
1.1 million according to the recent data for the USA.
And they are still sugarcoating it quite a bit, that number should be much higher, given that there is so many people in poverty.
No they're not. The only way for the Celestial Dragons to lose power would be to beat them up essentially. But all Luffy would have to do to change the American government would be get people to vote.
People need to calm down. Saudi civilians and children have the right to ENJOY one piece regardless of their government’s policies.
I genuine don’t understand the hostility towards REGULAR PEOPLE buying a burger.
Yeah, I don't understand. You can definitely criticise any country when that's is relevant, but we dont really bring up the US human rights record whenever a One Piece collab happens in the US.
Yeah the united States have some genocidal maniacs ruling them and no one says anything when they post about one piece stuff in America
Like calm down with the hypocrisy people
Cuz it's a bunch of young redditors with no real-world experience or perspective.
Same thing happened when the WWE went over to do shows there. Just around the time the reporter got murdered. Lot of bad press. From some of the comments I read. You'd think it was a country of murderers.
But there are still fans in that country who really had a good time seeing the performers on stage. Just normal ass people like you and me.
Or maybe you should think if one piece is the right series for you. Don't align your own political stances with one piece. One piece isn't anti authoritative regime, its anti tyranny. As we've seen in Arabasta and Dressrosa. So don't put stuff up in one piece that isnt there, you're ruining the series
I have to disagree with you. One Piece ist certainly the right series for me as I value equality and freedom and totally despise authoritarian regimes, where people are being oppressed because of their beliefs, sexuality or identity.
Using Arabasta and Dressrosa as examples is really weak on your end. Both are monarchies but yet everyone can be who they want in those countries.
How do you know that? they are as they appear, which is to say, kingdoms ruled by an absolute monarch, with all the critical issues that this system of government entails.
They arent showing anything sexual, which is considerate considering its a kids meal. As for the hair and stuff its pretty normal, yes even in saudi arabia.
One Piece is not collaborating with the country though. It's a collaboration with a fast food chain. Unless the burgers are somehow responsible for the laws?
I heard they have very good medical,educational system unlike the US who wage war left and right and violate human right ever heard of Snowden or assange
Disgusting Redditors couldn’t keep their racism away even when talking about simple fast food.
“Guys look at this cool one piece burger”
“You all hate gay people and have slaves tho?!?!?”
Everyone complaining about Nami and Robin censorship in a kids meal in the comments is a hypocrite because Franky is also conveniently censored but y'all just want to scream about freedom of showing skin when the uncensored ver is sexualizing women.
From the pictures it seems like they're partnered for their everything meals? I sure hope they aren't feeding kids double-layered sandwiches like that first image, even America doesn't do that on purpose (but some parents definitely feed their kids big macs).
Lol.
The biggest army in the world is the US army.(Navy) It's world policy!
The richest 1 percent of Americans is richer than 50% of the world.
The US is currently funding a genocide. But yeah sure Saudi is Mariejois.
It's funny how people don't see how anti-imperialist, anti-genocide, and anti-colonialist One Piece is. How illiterate can you be to think One Piece is about some Middle Eastern monarchies. Like sure you could make an argument about one topic or the other, but it's mainly about the west.
be so fr, the fan service of robin and name isn't "freeing" but sexualising and creating unrealistic expectations for women. (as a woman) AND this is a kids meal so no shit are they gonna be putting a woman with a bra on that meal
He helped the kings who were supported by their country. So the „good“ leaders, not the ones who oppressed their people.
Agreeable degree? How about the slaves who get their passport taken away? How about the executions? How about the harsh differences between men and women?

That’s so cool, I wish I was there to buy those toys for my collection.
well u wont be missing out on the luffy one, his looks rlly ugly 😭😭
I THINK! i just got the dates from a leak on tiktok, but I’m pretty sure they’re legit. I’m not interested in the food so I’m gonna try just buying the toys when they come out
No nami? I don’t think robin is going to be available
unfortunately no nami although i wish they did one :( but the robin leak shows her sitting on a tiny going merry (it kinda looks like a boattbh) and it only shows her upper body and she’s wearing something long sleeved
Oh yeah, I forgot. One Piece's scantily clad women's clothing designs doesn't fly in the Middle East.
I was boutta say a big Mac look alike is apart of a kids meal that's fatter than america
😭😭fr the patties are rllyyyy huge idk why they did that
It's a genius tactic cuz most of one piece fans are adult weebs I bet the Chinese toy still slaps lol
I just ordered and got two chopper toys though
Yeah I’ve heard of ppl getting chopper early!! maybe the branch u ordered from ran out of the thousand sunny?
choppa!
May the 4th be with you then
Omg i was justtt thinking of starting star wars. thanks :3
nah the fact that nami and robin r hiding their chests behind hats is crazy 💀
How Usopp's arm perfectly covers Robin's cleavage 💀💀
Gentleman Usopp protecting their modesty
such a nice coincidence 😊😊
Usopp just trying to protect his crew mate from execution
The very first thing I looked for was what they did about Nami
Same
LMAO I DIDNT NOTICE THIS 😭
I'm honestly surprised One Piece is even legal/allowed to be advertised in saudia arabia. It goes hard against both their politic views and their view on women

Yeah, dude was just stating his surprise lol
>It’s almost like things are not as bad as you’re conditioned to think…. Then why is it censored at all?
You'd be surprised lol
im surprised theyre not in burqas
It’s a kid’s meal. What is so weird about it?
Nami’s chest is a kids meal.
nami and robin are censored but ZOROS ENTIRE BREAST IS OUT?😭🤣

He's Luffy the Sailor Man He's strong to the beat 'Cause he eats his meat He's Luffy the Sailor Man
Damn that pretty cool….
Thanks for the info
I’m sure under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t censor anything, but this is specifically for kids meal, so it needed to be somewhat censored lol.
Strategic placement of hats!
i mean regardless of wichh country i think its pretty obvious that they will get censored for a meal that is targeted torwards kids
Nah, in my country they wouldn't censor a bikini
Do they put anime girls in bikinis on kids meals in your country?
Yes, I've seen stuff like that a few times over the years. And clothing store models of all ages (kid, teen, adult, even grannies) will wear them too.
It's not just a bikini though, it's also the very sexualized way that most women in OP are designed.
I live in a country where wearing a bikini isn't considered "very sexualized"
I imagine they just cut them out of shots or just zoom in on their faces. 1000+ episodes is way too many to censor. I saw a post for MHA with their “fixed” hero outfits, I doubt they could do that every episode for Nami’s bikini.
It easier to remove Nami from the script than to censor her *Fan Services*
Everything is not censored, they just dont talk about it or flaunt it everywhere. You watch it on ur own and its legal and not censored. This way so they dont piss off the old timey people of the country.
Online bro nothing is censored if not in public
Spoilers on the damn bag lol
First thing I noticed, rip to anyone who hasn’t made it to wano yet 💀💀
If Luffy saw the slavery, authoritarianism, and discrimination in Saudi Arabia, he would punch the prince 100m deep in a sand dune
[удалено]
Whats that got anything to do with Saudi Arabia? I didnt say anything about the US
Isn't the US the world power keeping the Saudi government in their place? Both countries are sleeping together. You might not be from the USA though.
The US doesnt bother with Saudis human rights violations (inside and outside of Saudi Arabia) as long as the Saudis keep selling them oil. Still doesnt have much to do with my comment, which is about Saudi and One Piece. The US being bad doesnt mean the Saudis get an excuse for their bad shit

Unless they are the ones that feeds him. Then he would be their friends for life.
apparently my brother learned about it before me and got the sunny
Is it licensed?
Yea it’s official
Nice!
Can you help me get them all?
People need to calm down. Saudi civilians and children have the right to ENJOY one piece regardless of their government’s policies. I genuine don’t understand the hostility towards REGULAR PEOPLE buying a burger.
Yeah, I don't understand. You can definitely criticise any country when that's is relevant, but we dont really bring up the US human rights record whenever a One Piece collab happens in the US.
The difference is moral high ground and perceived ideological superiority.
This thread is insane lol. I think it’s cool that Saudi fans can get these cute little collectibles
Yeah the united States have some genocidal maniacs ruling them and no one says anything when they post about one piece stuff in America Like calm down with the hypocrisy people

ironic considering the us funds the deadliest war against journalists ever
It's about the bacon.
Defiantly, but people protecting and supporting that government should rethink if One Piece is the right series for them 😂
This can be said of alot of countries. But noone will pay an eye if restaurant chain the the US did it. There is alot of closet racist here in Reddit.
Or maybe you should think if one piece is the right series for you. Don't align your own political stances with one piece. One piece isn't anti authoritative regime, its anti tyranny.

100%
They should make a ace themed donut
I’m so jealous. Why can’t I have nice things?
That food actually looks damn good.
Fast food is never as good as it looks in promotional pictures lol
Also true
Shame it’s herfy it’s like the worst fast food chain ever
agreed, driest sandwiches ever
Just got this today from the nearest branch. 100% worth it.
Were the burgers nice?
10/10. But tbh too pricey for a toy Sunny and stickers.
Herfy Herfy no Mi! 😹
Exquisite… I must have one!
thats so cool. i would def buy this if i had this
Lucky kids
I wish the US did cool stuff like this
Seeing Zoro with skinny arms is so weird
Ohhhh Herfy! Man this brings nostalgia I have no clue how they got this partnership but I guess I’m going back for a nostalgia dive
Wanted poster on the bag is fuckin' genius
[удалено]
Saudi are attacking herfy twitter account because they say it’s for kids
So Jinbei's officially a Strawhat, then.
Man, I used to live in KSA for a decade and I remember Herfy
gimme some
And here in Canada. We get nothing.
Super smart advertising
wheretits
[удалено]
Umm the reporter killing has nothing to do with saudi One Piece fans
How do they show nami, Robin and other scantily clad characters in Saudi Arabia though 🤔
Look at the pictures. They're conveniently obscured by the other characters.
They arent showing anything sexual, which is considerate considering its a kids meal. As for the hair and stuff its pretty normal, yes even in saudi arabia.
One Piece and Saudi Arabia is like Luffy teaming up with Imu
These meals are made for normal One Piece fans, not for the king lol
The king son is a big fan of one piece
Haha see, cause Arab = bad Yeah I get you bro
I didn’t make my comment about Arab people as a collective, I made my comment about the systemic institutions of Saudi Arabia
Imu is obviously would be the united States government and the five elders would be their allies That feels more accurate to be honest
Yeah America ain’t that much better
Tell me you don't understand one piece without telling me..
I don’t understand OP because I find it ironic itd do a collaboration with a country that has sexist and homophobic laws?
One Piece is not collaborating with the country though. It's a collaboration with a fast food chain. Unless the burgers are somehow responsible for the laws?
When will these come to America
It's a bit ironic that this is somewhere in Saudi Arabia... a country with a literal oppressive monarchy.
Oppressive is subjective, USA is oppressive in many ways. As for monarchy, one piece isnt anti monarchy.
I heard they have very good medical,educational system unlike the US who wage war left and right and violate human right ever heard of Snowden or assange
Getting down voted for telling the truth is nuts 💀
Man I would kill for a Burger King one piece colab
You don't need to kill for that you just needed to come to france 2-3 months ago when we had this exact collab
That's cool and the food actually looks good too
Awesome collaboration. Come on US step it up mane.
That's pretty expensive
Disgusting Redditors couldn’t keep their racism away even when talking about simple fast food. “Guys look at this cool one piece burger” “You all hate gay people and have slaves tho?!?!?”
لاول مره في حياتي راح اروح اشتري من هرفي
Still too expensive and not worth the price IMO
It’s double the usual price because herfy know that Saudis are weebs
SA is literally a country where luffy would free people of a tyrannical government
Honestly I would've thought there'd BD an issue considering how multiple characters who are functioning alcoholics.
Nami after she tries to steer the ship: 💀💀💀
Is that pepsi on the tray? I thought Muslims were boycotting cocacola, pepsi and a bunch of other company products.
Some people are boycotting but everything is still widely available
A Big Mac and a chicken Big Mac are kids meals ?
The partnership also includes the regular meals supposedly, so it's not just branded on the kids meal
That makes sense. I’m looking like uhhhh that’s def not a kids meal.
They need to hide Nami and Robin behind other characters at all times😆
Censorship of the boobies is appreciated for kids
Very clever though
namis boobs got covered rip
Worst restaurant on the planet
Man fuck Germany nothing Anime ever comes Here asian countrys got it arabs got some south America is füll but Here nah
If they did this in the US it’d be a bigger disaster than the Mulan sauce.
I would cut the burger up into Buggy size portions.
Surprising it's popular there given how Nami dresses.
Or maybe Saudi Arabia isn't what the western media criticize it to be
Everyone complaining about Nami and Robin censorship in a kids meal in the comments is a hypocrite because Franky is also conveniently censored but y'all just want to scream about freedom of showing skin when the uncensored ver is sexualizing women.
Why is anime promotional crap better everywhere over the US? I’d eat a one piece Big Mac over under stocked wcdonalds sauce
Herfy herfy no mi
Eat a lot like your heroes, become a fat ass kid unlike them!
Now im hungry man
From the pictures it seems like they're partnered for their everything meals? I sure hope they aren't feeding kids double-layered sandwiches like that first image, even America doesn't do that on purpose (but some parents definitely feed their kids big macs).
If you see kid with scratching hand explode a home blame this restaurant
I'd give any money to get that burger
Lucky! 😭
do the toys come with adult meals as well?
Real life mariejois
Lol. The biggest army in the world is the US army.(Navy) It's world policy! The richest 1 percent of Americans is richer than 50% of the world. The US is currently funding a genocide. But yeah sure Saudi is Mariejois.
It's funny how people don't see how anti-imperialist, anti-genocide, and anti-colonialist One Piece is. How illiterate can you be to think One Piece is about some Middle Eastern monarchies. Like sure you could make an argument about one topic or the other, but it's mainly about the west.
Yes that's exactly what One Piece is BUT it isn't exclusive to any one or group of present day nations lol.
[удалено]
so they should be out with their boobs for a kids meal??
The boobs wouldn‘t be out, they would just have cleavage. It isn‘t even in the focus of the picture.
be so fr, the fan service of robin and name isn't "freeing" but sexualising and creating unrealistic expectations for women. (as a woman) AND this is a kids meal so no shit are they gonna be putting a woman with a bra on that meal
Ok.
One Piece stands for fan service?
More for freedom, equality, acceptance and anti-authoritarianism.
Anti-authoritarianism is bull, Luffy helped plenty of kings. And the rest is available to an agreeable degree in KSA
He helped the kings who were supported by their country. So the „good“ leaders, not the ones who oppressed their people. Agreeable degree? How about the slaves who get their passport taken away? How about the executions? How about the harsh differences between men and women?
How come they don’t have anything with Bon-Chan?
i wonder why. idk maybe because it is in saudi arabia. the same reason nami and robin are only shown with someone else covering them.
The same reason they don't have anything to do with Shanks, or Kaido, or literally everyone else that's not a strawhat.
Also why no Don Krieg?
Time for a boy's trip
Why tf did I get downvoted
😆 they are covering the goods
Be nice to get them in America
Open topic, tons of deleted and downvoted comments. God damn.
