Live Action One Piece is Wild

- The new one piece live action was very weird. Live Action One Piece was something I expected to hate and wasn't planning to watch at all, but I'm glad I did. According to Grandline I may have a slightly unpopular opinion...or not? Lemme know

As a non-One Piece watcher/reader... Nothing in this show is cringe, no matter how silly it is, because it truly believes in its own vision.
Just like Luffy, it's easy to believe in a dream if it believes in itself.
Glad you could enjoy it. You have no idea how happy this makes those of us who've been invested in OP for a long time.
Ur a non-One Piece reader but ur already quoting the story like it's consumed u 🤣
Bo3?,"its easy to belive in a dream,if it belives in itself."is corvis both the d.n.i. and the idea of the frozen forest?
I really like how the show captures the sense of adventure that the manga and anime give. It's not a perfect adaptation, but it's definitely worthy of the name One Piece.
i think the best part of the adaptation was how u could feel the love for the series put into it. obviously oda oversaw much of the production, but it also felt like much of the cast n production team wanted the best for it as well. the casting was also exceptional and it felt as diverse as the source material, if not more, because of it.
I like that Luffy seemed like more of a real person in the live action. It seemed more like a kid coming to terms with how to be yourself and be a captain with your friends being under your care
Which is a theme that only becomes apparent in the manga just before everyone loses before the grand line
Yeah exactly I feel like changing from the anime on small things is important. Like if it was a one for one remake everyone would hate it but if you change it a little people complain. It’s a lose lose situation
Hes got a thiiiiick latino accent tho. It makes some of his lines hilaroius to hear luffy say "im gonna be a king of the pirates" sounding like a mexican from speedy gonzales.
Wasn’t it said that Luffy would likely be Brazilian if he existed in the real world? According to Oda, a Latino accent is fine when voicing Luffy.
@@iantaakalla8180 I mean he shouldnt be speaking english at all if you wanna go that far. In the anime he does not speak japanese with a brazilian accent.
I really enjoyed the live action as well, I was really sceptical of it, and I'm happy it didn't massively disappoint. One thing I was disappointed in was how they cut the Luffy vs Don Creig fight, this was the fight that basically made Sanji join the crew, and that didn't happen, which in turn, didn't really give Sanji the motivation to joint hr crew that he needed. But he still did. I get why they cut it, was just a bit disappointing for me
Was it the Don krieg fight? My interpretation of Sanji getting the motivation was when Zoro fought Mihawk, him risking his life for his dream, which pushed Sanji's character. That also got me disappointed though.
It could be a combo of both. Kreig wanted to take the Baratia, which was Zeffs dream, Luffy knew this and since Zeff fed him he was there for a friend. And Luffy doesn't stand for people getting I the way of people's dreams. That's why he fought Kreig, and he also encouraged Sanjis dream in the process.
I could easily be wrong as I haven't watched early eps in quite a while, but this is my best guess
@@seph_0056it’s pretty much both. Don Krieg not being in Baratie and him not witnessing Mihawk fight just made his motivation seems weak
Although I understand your criticism when comes to the characters portrayals in this adaptation, I think the reason they made them more "sympathetic" or "less interesting" is mostly to the fact we only had so much time to introduce each character and get them together to form the straw hats. It was a trade off they had to do because it was only 8 episodes to introduce and develop everything, and each point you bring up in the manga counterpart works because the story has the luxury to pace itself in such a way that those moments felt earned. Sometimes rreplicating this wouldn't necessarly work in the context of the netflix series, but it's def something they can touch uppon later on. Obviously the series is not perfect by any means, but I feel like some changes were for the better.
I thing I really appreciate is that they were inspired by Tokusatsu and the Ruroni Kenshin adaptation because that stuff works in live action because it actually inspired a lot of anime, so someone who understands how that works with acting and directing being inspired by Japanese acting which would in turn inspire both Toku and anime. Now I haven’t seen the OPLA, so I could be wrong, but from the clips I’ve seen, it looks like they used it to make the animisms work in live action.
they also have one actor there from the rurouni live action- mackenyu lol
I'm not much of a fan of One Piece and actively tried to avoid it. I am a fan of classic anime, films and OVAs and not these long unending franchises that seem made just to sell product, but watching this Live Action I couldn't help but fall in love with the characters, and can now understand why so many people would follow such a small crew for so long going on adventures together. Describing the characters to a friend who is a fan, just based on the Live Action, showed just how accurately they captured their personalities, and that's honestly amazing.
You should try the canon OP (mainly manga but anime is fine) I get it seems like a Star Wars or Naruto but it's not Oda's had a vision of his world plot and lore for decades and the reason the series is long because he's trying to flesh out these things with his limited release schedule
@@TwilightYonder720 I see it as a situation where Oda has the start and the end done, but with time it was getting clear that there much more story in between than expected.
I definitely agree with what you said about them "whitewashing" luffy. Like its not so clear cut as "good pirates" and "bad pirates" like the show makes it seem. A good example is at the end of Skypiea when * SPOILERS they rob it of some gold without asking after saving the whole place. Like the scene in orange town when the villagers offer Luffy food and he only takes ONE!?? I feel like Luffy would never do that lol
Well, in the Wano Country Arc, he shows he has a soft spot/sympathy for poor people or the ones that are struggling to have food, and he feels bad about they starving. So it IS in character for Luffy to be a little more considerate in this scenario with the villagers who have nothing but that food right now, him still taking a little bit still shows Luffy's gluttony tho 😂
5:30 I agree Netflix Luffy doesn't feel like the guy to steal gas masks or to release the worst criminals from Impel Down just to save his brother.
I feel like the Live Action is more of an appetizer for someone who's heard of One Piece but isn't sure to read the manga/watch the show. It got the core themes and appeal the manga/anime but it offers itself as an intro so when a person decides to read the manga/watch the anime, they'll like receive a full-course banquet and get to enjoy it more!!!
However, though I really appreciate they included the morality of the Marines and the Warlords, I feel like that making the story more serious has caused the story to loose its own darkness--like Kuro killing his crew in front of the straw hats, Buggy's indifferent destruction of the town, Don Crieg wounding his own crew after that one guy refused to kill Sanji due to food, Arlong and his crew abusing Nami and terrorizing her town, the corruption in the Marines, etc. Perhaps in the second season they'll be able to expand more on that darkness.
I really hope the second season comes soon with quality and time.
Thank goodness finally someone said they were way more like heroes than in the original material.
I understand with less time to grow fond of them you would have a harder time forgiving their not so noble acts but, they are Pirates!
One scene that also really made that change to the LA Luffy obvious is when Luffy frees the villagers from the chains and when he at first refuses the food they give him and then only takes a little bit with him. Actual Luffy would maybe have tossed them the keys or something along those lines but he would have never gone and freed them himself imo. Actual Luffy doesn't give a shit what villagers think of him - whether they see him as an evil villain or as a hero. Hell, he doesn't even want to be seen as a hero but even if they see him as one he doesn't give a crap about it. I also think actual Luffy would have acted the other way around with the food: He would at first take everything they offer him without thinking to much and then when he sees that they probably have very little food themselves reluctantly give most of the food back to them while sneakily stashing some of it in his pockets or something.
Luffy being a bit more heroic doesn’t seem too out of character to me since more often than not, he is the type to want to help out people in need. But I do agree it was more exaggerated here than in the anime at some points like at the end of the Buggy episode when he didn’t accept all the food the mayor gave him and just took one thing. If it was money, sure, but I don’t think canon Luffy would refuse food like that
I hope Chopper is faithfully done in the same way that Sonic and Detective Pikachu were, just the character ripped straight from the manga.
Yeah it's wild how really good and enjoyable it is. I watched it twice now and made me laugh so much plus the easter eggs were cool and the casting was so damn great for most everyone especially Helmeppo, Mihawk, Koby, Luffy, Nami and Zoro. Also the flashbacks were done pretty good to me not much I didn't like besides some minor changes or how characters acted at times like Garp acting more serious kinda threw me off but this broke the curse and think it's a 8/10.
Also, there’s a little thing in episode five that makes you realize how much the character has been through its when Zoro is cut down by mihawk. We see Luffy having a panic attack (because he remembers what happened with Sabo)
I think the biggest problem fans have with Garp’s storyline in the live action is that it took away from much needed time with the crew, Ussop and Sanji especially which I felt that both of them got way less screen time than they needed to, and missed some great development they had in the manga/ anime in the East Blue Saga
Doesn’t help that not much actually seems to be happening in the Garp storyline with Garp personally, and that Garp just is played too much on the serious side. I can’t even tell why Koby likes them in this version
I really didn't mind it & it added to the world building with some of the themes of the show being there are good & bad people on both sides. They are subtly preparing new comers to the show on what's to come like Marineford. I like that we are essentially following 2 sides, we have the Straw Hats with our crew & now we have Koby as the window to that side. We gotta remember that this is an adaptation & it doesn't have the luxury of 1000s of episodes/chapters to build up characters so when other Marines & characters do show up it's just not out of nowhere. Here they can have Garp/Koby be the introduction to the other Marines & World Government.
amazing to find out about second channel with tons of content i will be watching now
Its mad that this didn't turn out to be a travesty.
How did this one succeed when it feels like it should have failed the most
It didn't try to discard the source material or try to be a shot-for-shot adaptation
Because they actually took what goofy stuff that actually works in live action, but taking out stuff that doesn’t work.
I finished the live action last night, and I absolutely loved it. It surpassed any expectations I had when I first heard that One Piece was getting a live action adaptation :) I am so happy that I was finally able to watch a live action adaptation that wasn’t downright terrible. At this point, I really hope they get approved for a second season, just so we can see what they will do with that. :)
I remember your video about the Cowboy Bebop live action and how you echoed my opinion through it. I was so bored by that show and keep imagining how they could make Cowboy Bebop of all things so bland. But how things can go around, who would have imagined that One Piece, of all anime/manga, would do a decent job in live action.
What made it good is that I can feel their adventure and by that I wanted more!
And more indeed, for I started to watch the anime 💀
The Garp/Koby storyline left me with mixed feelings. On one hand, I really liked how they handled Garp and brought his character to life and it was especially relevant given what Garp is doing in the manga currently. On the other hand I felt like it was somewhat unnecessary and took up a bunch of space that could have been used elsewhere.
Wow I remember when you first started that second channel it had very low views for quite a while, felt like a hobby thing. But seems like every month or so there’s something that pops off, like harder than the main channel vids. Happy to see for you!
Wait a second omg, I stumbled upon your P4 analysis on your other channel after being a casual viewer of this channel for like way longer and somehow I never realized you were the same person 😂 You're doing some great work and it was neat to see you back here for this One Piece review.
Just subbed to hiding in private ✨❤️ this was a great video and I also really enjoyed this adaptation! I never liked any anime live action like this before and I’m excited to see the next season 🙏🏼❤️
I think the main thing is, at this point, like it was in the manga (to a degree, might I add), there was a bit more straightforwardness with morality but as time goes on, we will be getting into the *really* ambiguous morals of the OP world, and with Luffy *especially* if by some miracle, we get to Impel Down.
i have not seen anything from the live action but i'm glad to hear about it from u and seeing the positives might make take a peek at it
glad to see a new public video but i've also been enjoying private one's! keep up the good work
Honestly as someone who even really just hates looking at One Piece (seriously something about the visual style bothers the hell out of me), this adaptation might be the only one able to actually make me like some version of that story.
i agree on some of the white washing of the moral but the line "luffy has no quarral about killing people" is just false. i dunno about the newer chapters/episodes but i know for sure that in the first 700 or so episodes it was a common theme that luffy never really killed anyone, especially not in the big boss battles. It was half kindness and half that not killing someone when they are defeated is kind of a middle finger to them in japanese culture iirc, but it was still a thing nonetheless. But i do thing nami was way to nice to common folk, especially the ones she didn't care about. Normally she would steal anything under the sun if she could
Never give up on your dreams man. Glad you are pursuing what you love and makes you happy .
I definitely don’t agree with so much of what Ohara and Grandlinereview says. Garp , Koby and Helmeppo’s story added so much.
I missed you!! Except i did watch some of your videos on your second channel lol.
Anyway, I loved OPLA, and tbh I did not like OP even after reaching water 7/early ennies lobby in the manga. Maybe it's just not for me, I have lots of criticisms. The live action however, made me enjoy the world of OP fully for the first time. Like I'm not even kidding.
If only Netflix would stop trying to make everyone too serious.
I think the only thing that is a bit of a self aware nod thing is the "all great fighters call out their finishing moves" and zoro being like "no they don't". But that was really really really funny and it's true that it does maybe need some contextualisation in life action in a way animation doesn't require it.
I don't quite think you're on point about Luffy "loving" fighting. He can have fun with it, which is rare and unique for a guy like him, but he's not like Goku where he derives joy from fighting or intentionally seeks it out. He'd be perfectly content not having to fight if the world wasn't structured the way it was
I agree with everything else, though
2.2k views in under 3hours!!! Youre getting famous!!
Honestly i like how different they are I mean sure in the anime their selfish and mean people but this is live action not the gag session or anything i think their trying to be more realistic of how their emotions are then do the anime stereotypes and just be actual people who react and have their morals questioned and above all sacrificed their views to help someone cause their not bad people they just want to accomplish their dreams and help the people they love so you know I’m actually fine with Luffy being a caring guy and nami being less stealing and chad usopp gets the girl and zoro talks more serious about what he feels about other decisions and his friendship with nami is nice and sanji well he’s got a nice accent so above all they feel more human to me
If they weren't nice, compassionate people, their actions wouldn't make any sense.
@@dl2839 Yes, but their flaws in the original media definitely made them a bit morally grey, as Hiding said in the video. They are definitely meaner than they are in the live action so far.
5:46 No, Luffy DOES care if people get hurt and, to my knowledge, has yet to actually TRY to kill anyone.
Nice video dude. I loved the cast and their dynamic. Also why do you sound like Todd Horward?
I watched that shit with my dad, and my god it goes so hard. I would like to give a shout-out to my dad for showing me it.
The shows not good. But it's not bad. It's a decent adaption. And that's what most anime fan want. Especially from all the atrocious adaptions before it.
I get it why they made all straw hats into more heroic figures they probably wanted to play safe for the first season maybe as the shows go on they will gradually add those layers.
HE UPLAODED😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
😮
Usopp and Buggy collaborated in the Buggy Ball
He told Usopp those smoke bombs won’t work.
then bam Usopp shoots the Buggy ball as a finisher.
I think a lot of the smoothing over of characters had some to do with the pace of having only 8 episodes
They wanted the characters to spend a lot of time together and connect to sell general audiences on them as characters and a crew
a lot of the bumpy bits were originally smoothed out by the spacing of their occurances in the anime/comedic effect in animation
Though i doubt "general audiences" would be as on board with the characters (and garp letting him go) if they did stuff like looting the village and stuff
They were too afraid to add back more questionable behavior
Atleast, thats what it felt like
Watching anime bullshit (like stopping two oncoming swords with the tip of a tiny dagger) played completely straight in live action was such a treat.
Luffy doesn't kill people.. that's why everyone he beats ends up coming back later. He doesn't mind other people killing seemingly though
"Luffy doesn't kill people." lets be fair, this is also bullshit.
When he literally uses a giant foot to fuck a boat, you can't convince me nobody died, like come on.
And then there is the fucking flamingo, puched though the island, he should be dead.
But in the end, who cares? it still works fine story wise.
@@Nomoon777 I mean it more like he doesn't try to kill people. Like if he defeats someone, why not just kill them?
@@F00Lsmack Yeah, that is it. He does not actively try to kill people. But if they die well, it is what it is.
It was fine. I thought is had strong bits, some weak bits. Honestly was surprised with how faithful it tried to be.
I accidentally skipped to the end of the video with the paytreon thanks. I thought it was a joke opening where you pretended the video was over, and then it actually played the out music so I figured you had just committed to the joke all the way!
Man shit is fire whenever ur speaking/gospel. This man holy and real as fuck. Watched like 30min of the first ep, quite promising
You don't have enough One Piece videos.
Good on you man, and no worries
So I think the best way we can refer to the live action is , its sort of a what if, still in the core one piece, but small changes here and there make it an expansion , something different , and honestly enjoyable, I think that they did great with what they had, and yeah if you want the full on experience you need to go to the source as its impossible to give all the characters all the time they need as money and time is a huge constraint for the live action.
The live action was my introduction to these characters. And i've started the anime proper since. There is not way i would have gotten invested enough in this crew with the first season of the anime to continue. The live action has done almost everything better so far.
oh i remember you now, i saw a clip channel of vaush upload your conversation with him
Great video
I saw someone accuse Zoro of Marvel style quippery for responding "No they don't" to Luffy's "all great fighters call out their finishing moves", but like....the show makes it very clear that's a Zoro specific bad take and no one elses agrees with him, its not the writers dunking on finishing move callouts. Buggy, Usopp and Sanji all do it too, Zoro's just the lone hater who can't coz he's got a sword shoved in his mouth XD
Hey I dont know too much about youtube, but Why put these video essays on your 2nd channel? it seems like you trying to build up a secondary audience when we are already here? we would all watch your videos on here because we watch these videos for you. I'm definetly going to watch your 2nd channel but I feel like a lot of your audience is missing out because of that. love this video btw
DREAMING DONT GIVE IT UP HIDING
yeah the fact the strawhats are way mroe goody goody here is pretty wild (in the original anime, i'd say only Usopp and Chopper were like the traditionally 'good guys' on the crew), but that just means people who watched the live action first are gonna be taken aback to see how much more stupid, selfish and unheroic luffy is in the anime/manga.
Who's Kobeh? 😂
No but seriously, I believe it was necessary to change the characters' personalities not just to appeal to a wider audience but also because anime behaviours are very much cringe in real life. Part of why the exaggerated personalities work in the anime and manga is because the medium provides so much more exaggeration with the visuals. I'm talking about their mouths getting ultra wide, the dry delivery of certain jokes or the classic anime ding sound followed by a shot of the character looking to the side with their eyes greyed out. That's not possible in live action so they have to adapt to the medium. Part of why Luffy in the anime works as a true chaotic neutral/good force is because of the unrealistic setting. I truly think if they had made LA Luffy as dumb and selfish (except when it came to his friends of course) as in the anime, it would have made him very unlikable and not a fun character. Same with him not laughing at Arlong during their fight, it would have taken away a lot of the impact of the fight.
Very nice thing you picked with luffys morality and how it could've been a perfect opportunity to grow his character through Vivi in alabasta. The scene when luffy calls vivis expectations of people not dying at all in the civil war as naive. Manga has so many moments of beautiful character development in future which i really expect them to take. Especially usopp who was bland af this season.
Honestly sounds like you don’t get luffy, luffy doesn’t kill people in the manga either, he thinks of killing as unnecessary because by defeating them he crushes their dreams so there’s no need to kill them, luffy doesn’t necessarily worry much about innocent people, but he doesn’t actively try to hurt them and will help them if they’re in trouble so long as it’s not out of his way, he also doesn’t work for reward, luffy does what he wants, he usually helps people because he likes them, and for no other reason, that or because their enemy has pissed him off, nami’s betrayal actually feels more significant here, because she actively chooses to betray them instead of just leaving, and when she does just leave in the manga she’s clearly torn about it, they just build it up before it happens in live action
I don't understand people that want a re-adaptation like this to follow the original as CLOSELY as humanly possible. You shouldn't just make changes for the sake of it, but you can certainly improve on the writing, pacing and story beats that were single-handed created by a mangaka who was on a time crunch...
The original is no where near perfect, and it wouldn't necessarily fit into this different medium and format AND we already have the original, making some changes is a plus.
Thank you for the video
Luffy does NOT kill, end of story!!!
I am sick and tired of having this debate so answer me this, who has Luffy been portrayed in actually outright killing? And don't you dare say Kaido because show me the body!!
So no, Luffy is not a good person because stealing from and hitting people is not off the table. But killing has not been shown. Do not forget, shounen is technically for 14 year old boys!
Last thing, koby not kobey!
Other than these I mostly agree with the video. Very welcome surprise this live action adaption
I appreciate the review, but it would have been nice if any of the things you were talking about were reflected in the scenes being shown on screen. Like, I know only some of the show is available to be used in public media, such as garp's dog hat or nami's orange field or Sanji's cooking scene maybe not being publicly available, but you could at least show luffy stretching his arms when you talk about the cartoonishness of his abilities. That sort of stuff is what drives people to watch your videos, instead of just reading a review somewhere.
It was Oda who had the last word I think its he who wanted Luffy to be the ray of sunshine he is in this adaptation ultimately the straw hat pirates are more vigilantes than they are pirates but they wilk probably end up becoming more like The Guardians Of The Galaxy and the crew of The Serenity as the show progresses.
You say that you don’t really like how serious Luffy is in this show but I feel like garp is a victim of the same issue. I don’t mind having more screen time with him but he feels so stripped down that I don’t really have any interest in watching this version of garp other than that I like him in the manga
2:57 i meeean,
Luffy: why is he calf axe hand
* seconds later *
A theds why (Luffy smiles)
But yeah it’s not thed campy
previously have had 0 interest in a one piece, but this looks really fun.
How can anyone complain about more Garp
I dunno, cutting out the only awesome thing about Sanji together with the entire basis of Usopp character development in order to have Garp make a fool of himself for 8 episodes just to basically go: "It was an exam to see if Luffy is a good guy and he passed" sounds as not too great of a deal. Especially considering your point about characters being too good. Garp came out as a complete nepotistic arbitrary asshole who wastes shitloads of time and effort to achieve pretty much nothing while chasing deeply personal matters. All the while, the job he SHOULD of been doing is done by a bunch 17 year olds 👌👌👌👌👌
Please do review on Frieren: Beyond Journey's End!
This show was Amazing!

I also like Kobe. Really delicious steak.
Nice
huh> i swear luffy hasn't killed anyone even in the manga/anime
❤
Garp didn’t feel like Garp at all in the live action. But I loved the extra Colby and Helmeppo scenes so I don’t know if the extra scenes of Colby and helmeppo are worth them butchering Garp.
pp
i havent watched it yet
Grandline is one of the most annoying and unfun OP youtube creators, I wouldn't bat an eye on his opinions.
That dude misses the whole point of One Piece and all of the characters
I saw his take, only agreed with Oda's intuition of not liking Garp so early. I am thinking of checking his reviews from the beginning, but his Vibe is soooo off putting. I might not like him at all.
Hmm yes
For the characters personality smoothing, I'd say wait for S2. Oda likes introducing characters as stereotypical then flipping the script later (Brooke being the most drastic), since he's over seeing this he probably ok'd the script as is so people would grab the bait and get snagged only to find out later how truly insane each crew member is
Edit: adding that in Water Seven/ Enies Lobby there is literally a whole arc about how Luffy being too carefree is a problem. They just upped that to the Zoro v Mihawk moment cause super carefree Luffy can get grating for some people, it did for me. Lends focus on Water Seven and Enies lobby arcs in LA to focus more on Usopp, Going Merry, and Robin as well if Luffy's already learned that lesson but those 3 need the character development
Barley watched an episode
Its a disaster
Boo. Do not praise this trash. Anime live action will never really work. The whole point of this is to try to get your money. This video is proof that it worked.
Yes, so much inclusion.
9:15 Yeah, Liam is a bit disconnected from reality, and he's been so for a long while already. He will force his own personal opinion, many times wrong, onto others, by saying "many people" or in this case, "primary criticism" (he did that a lot to give entity to his own personal complains during Wano). I have not seen anyone complaining about the Garp subplot, nor have I seen Maeda saying Oda didn't want it (not saying it didn't happen, just saying I haven't seen it, and Liam has been known to fake sources in the past, to force validity into wrong and sometimes fake on purpose theories, just so they looked appealing enough for his formulaic 12 min videos)
your quality of videos really really went downhill with this one idk.
Biggest problem for me.. This series is not funny.. Boring as hell

Luffy sleeps

the biggest Problem with One Piece live action is that it is More Censored than One Piece Anime.
Bullsh** they put the “Zeff ate his leg” bit there when the anime was trying to be kid friendly
@@Sofiaode18 you are 100 percent right i watched all eight episodes of One Piece Live Action and I can confirm that One Piece Live Action is definitely less censored than the Anime and even Manga in a certain segment
Also youre promoting a project during the writers strike..you did not give any shout out to the strikers. And did not comment on the strikes. You are scabbing and im unsubscribing
That's totally understandable. Honestly it was a lapse in judgement. I very rarely cover relevant things so it didn't cross my mind and I should have been more aware. Sorry.
@@HidinginPublic and for the worst production company in the movement lol Literally having jenna ortega working w covid
This isn't scabbing idiot. There's no call for consumer boycott.
At first I wasn’t sure if I liked Garp being introduced this early but by the end I was all for it..him wanting to test luffy before he goes to the grand line is actually really cool and it fits his character.
