I used to hate One Piece cause it looked down right stupid. There are a lot of antics that are juvenile and silly, but funny enough, being urged to stick with the manga and be patient, One Piece is surprisingly good at character development and story.
Nice thing about the anime is you do get to see the characters grow, from a bunch of kids with the target audience of pre-teens, to adulthood. Yeah, it's not an easy anime to get into, you have to bypass a lot of the sillyness, but the good elements do come through, which probably explains why this series is the most popular manga/anime in japan.
Also, the fight scenes are what makes this anime awesome. The main character Luffy and his straw hat pirates do learn from each passing battle and get stronger. They would often revisit how far each character has come by pitting them up againts opponents that think they're strong, but gets utterly destroyed when they go up against the straw hat crew.
