    Contrary to what Joey said, I think the fact that One Piece is in an anime-dominant era is actually the biggest reason it won't be as iconic. During Dragon Ball, that's really all we had, all we knew, all we grew up with (with the rest of the Toonami/Adult Swim anime as the supporting cast). Today, there's a billion other great anime readily available to casuals and otakus and everyone in between.

      DB doesn't even compare with its contemporaries; it's just longer. The movie Anime scene in the 80s and 90s is pretty fucking stacked and that's their real competition. Most people didn't have cable.
      Akira and Princess Mononoke were way more important than Dragon Ball due to VHS releases and Blockbuster.
      One Piece's reach in the modern era hasn't been seen before. It's fucking massive.

    Easy answer, no. Dragon Ball is a cultural phenomenon around the world. In Mexico and Japan they REGULARLY have watch parties in stadiums and on crowded streets just for mundane episodes of the show. Even countries in Europe, the names escape me. I know they sometimes do it in Japan for one piece, but I’ve never heard of it happening anywhere else.
    Ask any 50+ year old person who Goku is and who Luffy is, more of them will know goku. At least by 3-1. I honestly only know one person in actuality where im from that even watches the show. 💀

    Dragon Ball, DBZ in particular, is my earliest experience with anime, and it is so heavily tied to my childhood, so it has an unfair advantage. To be fair, One Piece has, and continues to, be so massively wide spread; it's reach growing every day. It's also done something that very few manga and/or anime have been able to do; and that's have a very successful, and generally well received, live action adaptation. Which in itself has led to many non One Piece fans becoming fans; in fact some of them are now checking out the anime & manga because of that.

    If we talk about iconic, as much as I think One Piece beats Dragon Ball in everything related to story, characters and world building... DBZ is just TOO HUGE, and it's basically the show that made people care about anime transformations. Even till this day, the Dragon Ball franchise generates around $24 Billion, One Piece is around $20 Billion.

      Nobody cares about how well One Piece sells, no non-anime fan knows what it is compared to Dragon Ball. If I went to ask your grandpa what anime he knows, he's gonna 100% say Dragon Ball, not one piece. Obviously nobody's talking about Dragon Ball right now in terms of the anime scene, because everyone already knows it's out. We're talking about the franchise as a whole. Dragon Ball is way bigger than One Piece in both America and Japan, as well as most of the world. Casual Anime fans have no idea what one piece is, and will likely never watch it cause it has 1200 episodes and takes 10 years to watch. Plus, Ultra Instinct came out back in 2018 Dragon Ball Super was #1 on crunchyroll the entire year it was out, if Dragon Ball came out it would blow one piece out of the water. The only reason One Piece has so much sales also is cause it's dragged out and hasn't stopped circulation. Dragonball stopped being circulated in the 90s and has still sold a crap ton of copies in manga.
      The only people who even care about one piece are just people who've been watching it since they were kids. Overhyped show with trash animation, will never surpass dragon ball as the biggest anime culturally / influence wise.

    One piece fanbase is a cult, they call the man Goda unironically. You criticize story elements and characters and there is always some excuse, they have projected themselves on to a flawed piece of art while pretending it does not have flaws and/or it has not fallen off, so if you criticize it it is like you are criticizing them.
    Honestly very few manga if any are as time consuming as One Piece, so it becomes one of the only manga/work of fiction period that people get really invested in and don’t want to let go of. Kind of like Pokemon, if you criticize how it is now they’ll say “maybe you’ve grown out of it and it isn’t for you, these things have always existed and blah blah”, they blame it on you and act like there is nothing wrong with the story, that it’s YOUR fault.
    The media attention around it comes off as a cult, and the story itself thrives off of hype with no substance. Eventually though this hype will crash and burn, and people’s views on the story will change dramatically. Other shonen were at least criticized or are being criticized during their downfalls, and over time get more favorable love or are looked back fondly. But if One Piece keeps declining without being criticized, the perception will change even MORE negatively once the series is finished and can be looked at in a broader lens.

      To get it out of the way, DBZ is clearly the more iconic franchise.
      But this comparison doesn't make sense. We're in a completely different era of anime consumption. In the days of DBZ, no one cared about animation, there was nothing better to compare to and children care way less about that. Now the bar for animation has been raised to the moon, and expectations changed. Plenty of DB fans think Super is mid, one complaint being inconsistent animation.

    One Piece is currently at the peak of its powers and I'd argue it still has not come close to touching the global influence that Dragon Ball had and still has. For example and based on my anecdotal experience, the reveal of Ultra Instinct felt like it had a much greater impact than the reveal of Gear 5 had. I'd go as far as to argue that, globally speaking, Naruto has had a greater impact than One Piece.

If memory serves me right dragonball held the sales record since the mid 80's to like 2014 or 2015 over 40 years and mind you the anime was done in the early or late 90's and it ended in the US in 2001. One piece started on 1999 or 2000 after dragonball left a huge vacuum in the world in anime. So it took the big three to fill it so it took one piece until like 2015 to get the sales record while the manga and anime are still going. It's no where near close

I think honestly it's more of a case of times changing, tastes evolving and also the nature of DB today compared to what it was years ago because the thing is, One Piece has been one massive ongoing story that has still not reached its endpoint just because it's that dense and packed with content. DB ended and then it was brought back with stories that are taking place before the end of the manga and thus? It's kind of in a weird state where the fans of DB are still about it but many anime fans have just moved on.

Also Dragon Ball DID trend on Twitter and Facebook during the Ultra Instinct transformation. Also the fact someone even discussed for a second that maybe Naruto did overtake One Piece for a second doesn't study the international layout, internationally One Piece eclipses Naruto at every stage many, manyy times over.

    No way. Dragon ball is THE ANIME. Plus less people are likely to get into One Piece with its over 1000 episode arcs than with Dragon Ball. Also the fights in dragon ball are better and far more iconic than the ones in One Piece. Just to give two examples Goku finally achieving Super Saiyan and dueling with Frieza on a dying planet and more recently him and Vegeta fused together with the powers of a god fighting against Broly with the might of a Legendary Super Saiyan. Need I say more? Also Goku is more likable than Luffy when last I checked.

    Honestly I don’t think there will ever be a anime that’s more iconic than dragon ball (unless we count Pokémon) because you need to see the actual scale of it’s impact. People in Mexico were flooding streets and cinemas to watch Goku vs Jiren, plus the kamehameha, super saiyan and even ultra instinct are known by several generations. I think that’s the kicker, one piece isn’t known by multi generations in the way dragon ball is (at least not yet). The other thing is sooooooo many kids now a days and 20 years ago tried to go super saiyan 😂 whereas I can’t think of any other anime where kids tried to mimic a special move or transformation.

      To be fair they are talking about anime not manga and berserk hasn’t really had a faithful adaptation besides 97 which didn’t cover the whole story
