I never could get into one piece, it seemed to kiddy to me...IMO

It's understandable. I thought so too at first.
But that was before I tried watching more than 20 episodes... it's true, the series has a lot of humor in it. Even in serious fights, there tend to be humor. But even so, One piece deals with serious issues, and IMO, it is the series of the three "big" shonen series (Bleach, Naruto, One piece) that shows the most emotion. IMO, Oda is a brilliant man, able to make his characters extremely likeable, and his villains someone you love to detest. IMO, Luffy is also the most likeable main character, more likeable than Naruto and Ichigo combined... but that's just IMO.
What basically got me to start one piece was this:

Okay, I'll stop with the One piece talk now.
