I would go with Water7/Ennies Lobby Arc. It had everything. The mystery, cliffhangers and the epic fights with an epic end.

 

[zelllogan]

I support Water7/Enies Lobby. Great fights, great villains (CP9), great story, Robin's betrayal & explanation, Usopp burning the flag, Sogeking, Introduction of Franky, New Bounties, end revelations about Garp & Dragon, new boat, the old boat, ...

It was the most complete arc.

I second Water 7. The blueno vs luffy fight is what got me in to one piece if i recall. And we haven't seen anything as exciting as Gear 2nd since then.

I support this

 

[GiantAlienHamster]

It's gonna be EL anyway, that waas clearly the best. But I'll also nominate Sabaody Archipelago

 

[Xadyu]

I'm going for the Arlong Park Arc.

Even though the Water 7, Enies Lobby and most of the other arcs were great. When I first started One Piece I disliked it, a lot. But peer pressure kept me interested in the anime and when I reached the Arlong Park Arc. I was sold. The characters rised up, they became interested, cool, tough, Arlong was fucking bad-ass and the flashbacks, poor Nami's flashbacks were killing me. So sad and yet so fun (for me to watch).

 

[Kiba]

Jaya/Sky Island I nominate
awesome fights and awesome characters

 

[Kaiten]

Baroque Works: The arc where One Piece became a great manga. One Piece started becoming a deeper manga and larger world at Arlong Park. Baroque Works is where Oda built on that potential and made One Piece about more than island hopping.

 

[Blanka]

Enies Lobby

 

[hoeru]

I nominate the Jaya/Skypiea Arc for Favorite Arc/Storyline, as it's the first with Robin as Mugiwara Pirate. It also introduced Whitebeard Pirates, Blackbeard Pirates, Sengoku, Kuma and Doflamingo...

1 vote for Alabasta.

 

[BlackHair]

I nominate the Baroque Saga. My favourite villain and one of my favourite character played the antagonist in that saga - Sir Crocodile. Furthermore the climax battle/Alabasta plot was intense and well written by Oda. It sure deserves more credit. In case a saga can't be nominated I will have to nominate Sky Island Arc.

PS: a combination of several arcs is called Saga. CP9 Saga = Enies Lobby + Water 7

 

[Oni Giri]

i nominate thriller bark. it was full of funny and badass moments

 

[Freid]

I know that not many people enjoyed the war but I'm surprised that it hasn't even been nominated at all yet. So yeah, that's my nomination. The Marineford Arc because I liked it.

 

[raDar]

I support Baroque Works Arc, too. This arc has it all, awesome fights, funny moments, great storyline and what I won't forget when I was reading it was the added suspense especially when the SH were already identified by the Baroque Works. And the small sub-arcs were great too. So yeah, this is overall my favorite arc of OP.

 

[MochiRoll]

I know that not many people enjoyed the war but I'm surprised that it hasn't even been nominated at all yet. So yeah, that's my nomination. The Marineford Arc because I liked it.

I support this.

Enies Lobby's my most personal favorite. But looking at how many nominations it got, it's place is already sure. So I got to nominate my 2nd fave.

 

[k-dom]

In fact one vote is sufficient to be nominated.
Well I guess if I nominate Impel Down we will have pretty much every one :-)

 

[Poneglyph420]

Tough choice on this one...

Personally I'd of never remained interested enough to truly enjoy O.P. as a manga without Arlong Park.
Arlong Park was for me the first time where Oda showed his full capability as far as depth and emotion.
While I think there are other arcs that helped establish the SH as "THE" crew of note more meaningfully, IMHO the roots of all that greatness begin at Arlong Park.

So if it wasn't obvious with great trepidation I support Arlong Park

 

[M3J]

I support Water7/Enies Lobby. Great fights, great villains (CP9), great story, Robin's betrayal & explanation, Usopp burning the flag, Sogeking, Introduction of Franky, New Bounties, end revelations about Garp & Dragon, new boat, the old boat, ...

It was the most complete arc.

This. I felt a chill when Luffy told Sogeking to burn the flag, and he did. And when Robin said she wanted to live. And when Robin was finally saved.

So awesome.
