he looks the part. Remember what shanks this was. Still young, still fresh. Not OP yet.....personality is always the true winner tho, and the actor nailed it.
People dont understand that Shanks even in anime isn’t supposed to come out as a badass person, he is shown as a normal guy and people underestimate him. If we go with that context then I feel Shanks looks the part to me.
I haven't read the Manga or watched the anime, but this is what I got from the show. He looks weak and with only on arm left....but the last episode when he says that he can still take Mihawk if he wants and the respect of Mihawk toward him make me think he his the real deal 😅
@mugetszangetsjushou i thought he did well, that last scene with Mihawk was as Shanks as it gets. Him laughing and cracking his whole crew with the arm joke was spot on.
@mugetszangetsjushou he has literally everything that Shanks has. Everything - I just don't understand the complaints. And if you say he's ugly, youre delusional
@@GetTheCornNuts I said tone, the tone is very deep with Arlong actor in live action which didn’t really match the anime VA tone. The accent was odd also.
He isn’t talking about how they act. He is just judging based on looks and that dude looks nothing like shanks in my opinion. Not anything like I would have casted him, look wise
Ew no 😂 mihawk was played horribly here. He looks like mihawk 9.5/10. But how the character was acted 1/10. I dont blame the actor tho, i blame the one who told him to act like that.
I just didn't imagine mihawk would deliver his lines with that tone in the live action y'know... not to be homophobic but he sounded g@yish, like jack sparrow. Mihawk in anime sounded more firm
They adjusted every character and story to make it like they not over do it and make it make sense. This is what actually make this live action a Netflix curse breaker. You don't even see the 6 arm octopus fish guy that fight zoro in anime, cuz it would be unnatural weird af.
Mihawk not being a 10/10 is wild, same with 5/10 for Gol D. Roger, his actor was perfect imo, and him not looking completely healthy like he did in the anime wouldn't make much sense since hes a pirate whos hes literally dying
Luffy, Zoro, Mihawk and Buggy are literally 12/10 casting. The rest of the cast is really good but I genuinely cannot imagine any other actor playing those 4 with how awesome they were. It's like recasting J. Jonah Jameson to someone who isn't J.K. Simmons -- you just don't do it.
Just watched one piece and shanks is the most nailed one in my opinion, he looked bad in that shot we’ve seen but in the actual show he was just as good and as kind and as sexy as the anime shanks, my favourite character in the entire anime and became my favourite one from the show Well done oda!
His intro is creepy, but he (d)evolves into a scheming comic relief villain pretty quickly. So basically exactly like how he's portrayed in the manga/anime.
I know right. Arlong looks good given it’s all makeup and prosthetics. Also the actor was great. The only way they could have been more accurate is if they used CGI.
It’s not always just about casting for the looks of the character, also I think they did the best they could for Arlong, and I think he looks REALLY good
Nigga you cant just bring characters from manga or anime directly into live action. Whatever has been done is nearly perfect. Especially shanks, as he was just a goofy looking, bamboo like, skinny ass man at the starting of the series. And arlong is a proper live action fishman.
Its literally comparing live action to one piece what do you want bro to do change his opinions also how the heck you gone say judge a persons look by the cover? What else you gone judge by Eyes? All jokes aside I How You Don’t Take This To Heart 🙂
Appearance doesn't matter if the actors can portray the characters, and EVERYONE in this remake were spot on. As for Usops nose, I don't mind it not being in this because the actors doesn't need it (also, would be hella distracting and much more of a pain).
@Trigger0221 😂😂 I mean duh. They only made 1 hat. Which 9/10 they made it to fit Luffy actor only cuz that's 3 different hats. 1 for shanks, 1 for young luffy and 1 for adult luffy.
Luffy 10/10 Nami 10/10 Zoro 10/10 Usopp 10/10 Sanji 10/10 Shanks 10/10 Buggy 10/10 Mihawk 10/10 Garp 10/10 Gol D. Roger 10/10 Arlong 10/10 Oda hand picked these actors so your opinion isnt valid.
The actor for Arlong was great he had a presence about him but maybe they could of done the make up and costume design better with him make him bigger and more menacing but actor was great.
Shanks and Arlong despite appearance played their roles phenomenally. Arlong surprised me bc you could really feel the hatred he has for humans regarding how they treat fish men
Gold roger actor really nail it, it's like looking jack Sparrow,and i love it,for shank he just look like early shank,he just need a little bit buff and perfect for yonkou shanks.
For my opinion the character portrayal hits the sweet spot for me. They made them look realistic but kept them closely accurate to the manga. I actually like that they chose not to have Usopp's pointy nose and Sanji's curly eyebrows. It'd look a bit off in the live adaptation.
Yall expecting pirates to be handsome and what not lol their pirates and gold d roger was in prison for a while before getting executed and he was sick yall want him to look sexy
Shanks does look like a real pirate, and Arlong (alongside the other fishmen) also looks like a men with fish mutation, rather than a small kaiju. I know the manga designs are supposed to be unrealistic and fanciful, but giving the context of the live action, I think they did a good job. Also, the actors made a good job
I think even if Shanks and Arlong don’t look entirely accurate to the manga, they easily had some of the strongest performances in the show. Also, it’s impossible to not make Arlong look badass, so I still really like the art direction they took for his design. His nose looks toothy like an actual sawshark, it’s great
Wtf!!! Arlong's character was probably one of the best along with Buggy's. They captured the character's essence and especially the voices so damn well. This comparison is the worst. You would not expect them to literally look like the anime characters. There's going to be some human element. My suggestion: Rewatch OP😮💨
I wasn't really a fan of Arlong's design by first time but Arlong's actor did nailed the character, and I love how some of the camera angles during Arlong Park made Arlong seems bigger
I think that's an example of where the live action did well. They didn't pursue unnecessary details that would have just looked stupid and over the top
You think Shanks is off but that Luffy and Usopp are accurate? Lmao. Usopp looks Filipino in the anime. Luffy isn't supposed to sound like he should be wearing a sombrero.
@JT-yx7vf my dude, I'm telling you EXACTLY what was stated by the author himself. Lol he broke down what nationalities the main characters would be. 🤷🏻♂️
@MrSimonsays2592 When prompted, he hypothesised what they could potentially be if he had to choose - This is irrelevant to the characters in the One Piece universe where these groups such as Brazilians for example do not exist.
Ok I understand. But at the same time, you can’t really have people look exactly like the anime, without them looking exactly like the anime. What’s that means is that you can’t always expect a perfect 100% when going from cartoon to live action
Hello, you made a mistake, you must have forgotten what it looks like in the first season of One Piece Anime. Nami in the Anime in the first season, looks like in the Live Action Series. Sanji in the first season of the Anime, looks exactly like in the Live Action Series
In Japan, where 12,000 titles and one billion comics are published annually, sometimes characters are deliberately made to look strange in order to make an impact on readers and boost sales. The same goes for Sanji's eyebrows or Usopp's nose. If you do that in live-action, it becomes just cosplay.
Can we all agree that he does look like Shanks but it's the hat that doesn't look good on him. When you see him in the end without the hat he looks perfect
