ONE PIECE | Building the World | Netflix 

A fan cast isn’t enough… Henry Cavill absolutely loved The Witcher enough, but not the whole team. This series seems stacked with fans from the cast to the show-runners.

Easy answer, the one piece director loves and respects the source material, the Witcher director hates and doesn't care for the source material.

couldn't have said it better myself, bring on s2 baby! there is no more doubt left from me!

For real. They made a lot of changes instead of making it a carbon copy like Cowboy Bebop, but they didn't ignore some of the most important details and this was a move that put One Piece on top as a better live action adaptation.

Don't forget How horribly they messed up Avatar The Last Airbender and Dragon Ball evolution including a few other live anime adaptations like cowboy bebop recently lol

Not only Disney. When I compare this to what Prime did with Wheel of Time I get both angry and sad.

Disney has learned. Watch Ahsoka.

100%

@@starsapphire2013 Ahsoka was done well but Disney still needs to learn because they're butchering the upcoming Snow White live action. I think we all know it's a shitshow and it hasn't even been released yet.

​@@starsapphire2013You kidding me? Ahsoka sucks big time. Episodes upon episodes of NOTHING HAPPENING and just staring into NOTHING. And all that girl bossing has become so boring. Star Wars is dead, accept it. As long as Disney have the rights to it.

Well said, my friend.

What would be considered "perfect"?

@@restfulori212 Considering it's a first try, they did a great job! Can't wait to see what a Season 2 will look like with all the gathered experiences, and extra funds for sure too!

TBF it is difficult to ever create "perfect" but this as it's own nd with no comparison to the anime was very nice. I enjoyed the whole thing nd didn't really mind the differences. I can't wait for the nxt season

For me... Its perfection. But maybe... I'm just a blind fans.

I know right!!!

Cause japanese are pretty strict even if they don't watch op if they see them disrespecting one of their top ppl it's a problem

Yeah. Staffs who are older than Oda gives a shout out, which means they did their homework by reading the manga.

I haven't seen this kind of passion for a film crew since Lord of the Rings. They have absolutely won me over. I don't think it will ever surpass the anime, but I look forward to what they do with this. I just hope they never lose their roots.

Agreeeeee!!!!

4 episodes in, and so far, I strongly disagree. It's not terrible. There are things about it that are great. Since most live action adaptations of manga and/or anime are so terrible, I guess that bar hasn't been set very high...but still...I feel this show has so much potential, but so far, it's nowhere near reaching that potential. Not gonna give an in-depth review here...but I'll quickly go over some of the problems. First is the acting. NOT the actors...the actING. They all feel like they'd be truly great under the right sort of direction, but they clearly don't have that yet. That will likely change as the show progresses...that's not unusual, and is the main reason I never judge a show based on it's first season. Second is the biggest one for me, and that's the fact that it's almost TOO MUCH like the source material. I've only seen the anime...I'm not familiar with the manga...so when I talk about the source material, keep that in mind. It's an over-the-top pirate fantasy with all sorts of very unrealistic stories and characters, which is great for a fun adventure anime meant for younger viewers (mostly. It does mature some as the story progresses), but for a live action show meant for viewers of all ages, I feel that basically making it a carbon copy of the anime was the wrong choice. I think that it would be significantly better if they'd taken the source material and used it as inspiration...not simply picked the best story arcs, then copied them as closely as they could. The same goes for the characters and overall production, bringing me to my third major criticism. The costumes look like cosplay (often bad cosplay). The sets look pretty good, but it's often very obvious that it's a set. It doesn't feel real. Many outdoor scenes (which make-up probably 85% of the production) were quite obviously filmed indoors. You can easily tell that. I'm not suggesting there's something wrong with filming those scenes indoors...only that they don't seem to have done much to make the sound and cinematography FEEL like those scenes were filmed outside. That would've been forgivable back in the 90's...but not so much today. As for the more unrealistic characters (like the fish men)...they do look A LOT like the original source material...but in this case, I don't think that's a good thing. They should've used the source material as inspiration, and created new looks for those characters that both embodied the original, and respected it, but also looked more realistic. The bad guys should be scarier...less "cartoon-ey". More like the monsters they're supposd to be. They did this with the seaking...and it looked great. They should do the same with all of the characters and production design. As for the story...it's again too much like the source material. No story is perfect, and One Piece is no exception. This is an opportunity to improve upon the original story. Add things to it...take some stuff out...change details here and there. Stay true to the original and respectful to the creator and especially the fans...but polish it up some. Give us something that is both familiar, AND new. It's too predictable as is. We already know everything that's happening, because it's a carbon copy of the original, just shortened up a bit. I realize that there's no way to please ALL of the fans...but at least give us something new and interesting. Keep all of the main plot points, but improve upon the details whenever possible. Maybe even change some of the conclusions to the more minor story arcs. I never get to wonder what's going to happen next in this show...at least so far...because I already know the story. Again...use the source material as inspiration. Stay true to it...respect it...but think of it more as a template for something new. As a fan of the anime, I don't want just a live action carbon copy of the anime. I want something new and exciting. So far, this show feels like a bunch of cosplayers/amateur film makers decided to film a live action role play of the anime. Sure, a lot of people may enjoy that...but only until the novelty of it runs-out...then they'll get bored. Tons of potential here...and the love of the original source material is very clear...but I was bored halfway through the first episode. i'll definitely finish the season, and give season 2 a chance, because I'm hoping it will get better...but if it continues doing what it's done so far, I can't imagine I'll be interested in watching more.

​@@TimPetroneyou said you wouldn't go in depth but yet you write a whole book lol, just joking but I don't know what you mean to close to the source material, imo it was to far from the anime, naked helmeppo was never shown in the anime, Luffy had a whole different situation eating his fruit, Beckman yassop and lucky roo never fought like that in the anime, Luffy never got trapped in a glad cage of water, Zoro never killed mr 7 like that and it was very different from the anime so idk what you mean. And I am also 4 episodes in and I love it, they actors did a good job, the scenery was 10/10, the cgi was pretty damn good, the sound quality was good, and they did a great job, it was a 10/10 live action compared to almost any other live action anime ever released.

@@bendover7644 believe me, that was nowhere near “in-depth”. Long for a RU-vid comment, maybe, but not for a review of a new tv series. As for what I said…my opinion stands. They did change some minor details, but I’ve been binge watching the anime daily over the past few weeks…it’s fresh in my mind, and yeah, this show is nearly a carbon copy. And no…I’m sorry, but the acting isn’t “great”. The actors themselves are fine, like I said, but their performances are suffering from not so great direction. And the production value is mediocre at best by todays standards. It’s cool as a sort of novelty…but not something I can really take seriously. Not yet. It seems to me like you and a lot of others are caught up in the novelty of it….but that won’t last. Not unless they make some improvements. I’ll definitely give it a fair chance like I said…but so far I’m not impressed.

Agreed with you 💯

Couldn't agree more. Both on Lord of the Rings and this One Piece live adaptation :)

Agree Both LOTR and OP are my fav as well

I think that going into it, knowing that they could never meet or surpass the anime, worked in their favor. They're truly trying to make their own unique, but authentic rendition. If they went into it trying to be something they weren't, it wouldn't have felt so earnest and authentic.

absolutely agree

He is a more realistic version of Luffy, so he is not as goofy or dumb, but he definitely portrays Luffy's heart.

All of them are exactly get the Anime version of every characters. I love the outcome.

@@aximilian15 what makes Luffy to be luffy is the goofiness and the dumbness. I always laugh watching the anime but cringed watching Inaki portraying the character.

@@Adam-cn5ib well we're lucky that Oda himself chose Iñaki as Luffy and not you.

He also drew Luffy and gave it to Oda himself

@NhiNgoc-wt4wb Why won't it? He is literally one of the main characters.

​@NhiNgoc-wt4wb yes and another 2 Main Straw Hat Crew Member

not everyone has watched the anime or read the manga @@Geomsaemari00

yes its a great piece of work, one of the best

He watched as people watched the first screening from the sidelines what a g

@@larsstougaard7097dunno bout that but it is undoubtedly the best anime live action adaptation of all time and all around good show.

Love you nakama

Would be? Probably is. Google translate is a thing.

watched a couple episodes with my mom who is not a fan of the series, but she wanted to keep watching and that is saying something. As a one piece fan I think they did an amazing job ! 👌💯

Hopefully..we can support this live action until the end 🤗🙏 that was long journey right 🤭

@@makepeoplemad we watched it and we both loved it too.

Can't wait for the season 2. Every character resemble to it's anime counterpart. Most especially the plot is really good especially the visual effects of every character's special ability.

The cast and crew had their heart in the right place. They gave it their all and did not disappoint. Bring on season 2.

Yes I want to see Chopper and Robbin 😍 and I also wonder how Laboum is going to look

We dont have season, its arcs

@@bts-se4hd ik that but its season on netflix

​@@lionchris4165no, it's an arc. It goes to the end of the along park arc

Can't wait to have the season started again. It so cool to watch it, it's like I'm back nearly 20 years ago.

Apparently the actress was already a karate black belt, she probably got more action scenes because they knew she could do it.

We got some of it through cover stories over time but I agree this was the best we have seen besides recent chapters.

Same bro

We have seen the cover story adapted from manga and more recently but yes nothing is enough in op tbh we always crave more

For Real They even did the Impossible They made Garp Better in Live Action than the Manga/Anime which Blows my mind

Agree. With that adaptation, Netflix has to cut or to shorten a lot of storyline, and perhaps to change a little bit of drama seen from the anime/manga

What do you expect? If u want everything in anime the episode would be 44 anime episodes

Agree🤩🤩🤩

do you already knew one piece?

I just came finishing only 3 episode and got a lot of spoilers 😅

@@Sushan1 😂😂

@@rafhaelsales he said it in the thriller himself 😅😅 thats a spoiler

I kind of did too, I'm not much of a goosebumper, but there were a few times throughout where in between episodes as I was loading up the next one I drummed me hands on me desk and had a big smile on me face, I'd say that's pretty much the equivalent, I was having lots of fun and super excited between episodes! Great show.

That's to be expected in a season 1. Hope season 2 will blow our expectations again

What flaws have you observed in the entire season 1. Can you say it pleas because for me it's quite fine. It's an adaptation to a series you know. Sometimes they need to summarize a bit the longer story that we saw in it's Anime counterpart.

@@dayleashleynolasco5765 Literally everything has flaws, I love One Piece and I love the adaptation, but to say it's flawless is simply disingenuous. Some flaws at the top of my head would be: Pacing; some emotional moments didn't have quite enough time to fully be appreciated, an extra episode or two would have helped. This isn't necessary a direction fault, but I do feel like they could have cut from some places to add to the big moments like Nami's "Luffy Help Me". Axe Hand Morgan didn't particularly seem like he actually did anything wrong in the live action, for the most part he seemed like he was doing his job. Sanji joining the crew felt sort of out of the blue, without the encounter with Don Krieg it didn't really seem like he had much of a reason to follow Luffy. Some of the acting was a little bit rigid imo, but altogether it was really well done and this is me nitpicking. I adore Inaki, and Luffy is an exceptionally hard role to fill, but there were definitely moments where his dialogue just felt... not right, there was just something off about it. I have the utmost faith in him that he'll only get better from here, and I loved 90% of scenes with him in it; he's got the capacity to be the perfect Luffy. Syrup village, while an improvement from the manga/anime (imo) still had a lot of issues in particular with pacing; I believe this could have been cut down a lot but they wanted to keep it at 2 episodes, which hurt altogether. I also don't feel like Kuro's two crew members translated particularly well to Live Action, it felt like an example where they should have been less faithful and just let Kuro have normal crew members instead of 2 deranged lunatics that hiss and act like cats. This paragraph is pretty subjective, but I feel like the rest that I've said are pretty reasonable opinions to hold. These are just what I can think of straight off the bat, but I still loved the series. I would give it a solid 8/10 and I'm super excited for more, I believe that most of my issues can be resolved by simply giving the directors more episodes to work with.

Perfect is overrated 😉

​@@eshel9886perfect is meaningless

Nothing in this world can be perfect. You are expecting too much if you want perfect.

I doubt you could do it better

The word perfect only belongs to the One and Only GOD himself.

How do you know season 2 is coming?

They need to find out how to animate chopper first 😅😅

Doesn't the strike need to end first? And this show is pretty expensive...not sure if we'll get that many seasons unless it's very successful

@@probax5176there was a hint and cliffhanger in the last episode

​@@probax5176Smoker Teasers 😅

Me too...8 ep not enough 🤭

Seeing smoker at the end means there will be another. Netflix knew how big this would be and knowing the passion and effort being put in they definitely signed at least 2 seasons, not to mention the numbers this show hit. One of the biggest shows ever on Netflix with overwhelmingly high ratings from every critic board. They'd be shooting themselves in the foot if they didn't renew for at least 2 more seasons, the fans are here for it, and we obviously loved it.

It was Confirmed from Oda Himself he even Drew Chopper at the end of the video

What is sbs
