I, too, want more stories about platonic adult friendships that take place in a world that's not overly dystopian/depressing and not just more romance-centric stories.
@@Himolino Sure, when you actually look what's going on. But it doesn't FEEL dystopian most of the time because of the general vibe of the show. It doesn't feel depressed, and I think that was what the Bad Doodles dude was getting at. Many people in One Piece are often very hopeful (and Luffy is like the poster boy of Hope Incarnate). And I think that really makes a difference compared to...say....a show like Game of Thrones, where your faves are constantly dying and everything feels really bad. I remember many times where I felt depressed after watching an episode of Game of Thrones. I don't ever remember feeling depressed after watching an episode of One Piece. I hope that makes sense.
@@jeremyearley9162yep, he was sailing with some people in the caribbean for around 3 months in early 2023, then managed to get back in time for the brazil tudum event!
When it was announced and I saw how much effort the show runners were putting into it, I told my brother that I was excited for the live action and I though it would be good. My brother, a person who doesn’t watch one piece and wasn’t following the project like I was, said it would fail like every other live action. Jump forward to today, my brother is caught up to the manga which he started reading after watching the live action. I’d say it was a success 😂
ik its 11 months later but something similar happened to me. Never saw it as a kid and was too intimated to get into it as an adult I knew nothing about the series, got into a deal w a friend where I was made to watch it and enjoyed it so much I started reading the manga. as of now I just finished the alabasta arc (chapter 217) and plan on continuing a live action adaption being good enough to get people into the real series as a whole is quite a feat very little live action adaptions are good let alone good enough to do that, and I attribute all of that to having people working on it that cared and not... actively hate the series like halo or have no investment in it like so many others, I mean cmon the producer has been a fan since childhood, is caught up on the manga and did interviews w UA-camrs he isn't just making it for the paycheck like bebop he wanted to do it right and was aware its different mediums and changed it accordingly
The adaptation accomplished 2 things for me where Jacob actually made me like usopp in the east blue saga and Emily made me fall in love with Nami head over heels again. Taz, Iñaki, and Mackenyu also were perfect picks too! The dumb trio. Also they brought mihawk to life wtf how. I can't wait for Muppet chopper season 2 🎉 Edit: not just the crew but every character was a solid portrayal or in usopp's girlfriends case a lot better
Oda said it was the perfect time to make the live action because the technology was ready, but he also meant to say that all the perfect actors were born and ready to pick up their mantels lmao
Jacob really sold me on how Usopp's tall tales were part of his charm. That aspect of his used to annoy me a lot in the East Blue Saga. I thought it only worked on Luffy bc Luffy is so easily amused like that, but I get it now after seeing Jacob's performance.
I think the whole Syrup Village arc is just better, Kaya is way more fleshed out and even though Usopp didn't get as much screentime expanding on his relationship with Kaya and focusing the action around protecting her in her own house made for a stronger introduction that shows his strengths as a character more
I wasn't prepared to hope for it to be good, because of all the live action adaptations that are not good. But I'd happily give the show an 8.5 out of 10, with Buggy pushing it up to a 9 on charisma alone. Some room for improvement and I'm interested to see how they portray Logia and Zoan powers in S2. You think 4 months is a long time to a One Piece fan? That's like 10 chapters. We've waited literal decades for plot points to become relevant again.
Oda is really hands on in this one, took a couple breaks in manga too so he can look and supervise in the set. As a manga reader I was sad at first but this is legacy and magnum opus, Im pretty positive too going on in the OPLA the changes they did is not really bad at all, as they were approved by Oda himself.
"I'm surprised you're still with me given my last One Piece video was months ago" Me, who only recently binged a bunch of One Piece reaction/analysis videos and somehow ended up watching 3 of yours without realizing you were the same person: "wait you mean you made these before the live action dropped????"
I also always thought it would be a success just because all of all the marketing info we got and because Oda was behind it. I also started the anime series in January though.
My purists friends stayed away from this LA, they could not accept and grow. But so glad the world got to know of OP and a universal praise came along by Non-fans even more.
I knew the OP was gonna be good the second I saw the sets and casting months, as well as director, in advance. (Or at least it gave me hope.) So glad it ended up great because this series needed a condensed version with up-to-date amazing visuals and information used from future chapters. What's even better is it's finally in the western mainstream outside of anime fans now.
Before they showed any of the teasers/trailers I was concerned but as soon as they kept coming out I was instantly sold. The trailers were so well done and kept getting better. Also watching the videos with the cast interact and having them do fun game show stuff really sold it too.
Was actually screaming from the roof tops since 2017 that One Piece Live Action was gonna be great. I had a lot of faith in it because of the fact that the people in charge were very passionate and I love the Speed Racer live action and I know that one was good for the same reasons OPLA ended up being good so I saw the writing on the wall from the beginning. Very happy others were on board as well!
As I get deeper into the Anime, one thing I notice is that even if we ignore filler and just go by canon, there is a lot of "wasted time" in the different arcs that the live action did a tremendous job condensing down to the brass tacks of it all, and it makes for a much snappier and more kinetic adventure. I'm sure die hards will miss some of the meandering, as there are a lot of funny moments, but I am hoping for the rest of the series to smartly condense everything, and that in 6 seasons we are able to end it at the time skip.
Casting was not the problem with 4Kids Sanji. David Moo is a PHENOMENAL actor. His directors told him to do a bizarre Brooklyn accent and was given a terrible script. If you ever want to see him in a competently directed dub, check out Slayers NEXT. Big agree. Usopp's lack of screentime is my biggest concern. In the text given to us by OPLA I don't see why Zoro or even Luffy would want Usopp around. I didn't expect the Live Action to be good and honestly I felt like I was the odd one out as so many folks were watching the trailers and getting hyped. Partly on me, I don't watch trailers for things I know I'm going to watch. I'm extremely pleased with how it came out and I hope it only improves from here. And I desperately hope they don't rush, rushing and condensing too much will slowly kill the adaptation by either becoming too breakneck to be enjoyable, or by having altered so much that down the line things simply do not operate correctly. Personally hoping the start of the Alabasta Arc itself is how season 3 starts, letting season 2 give time to Loguetown -> Reverse Mountain -> Whiskey Peak -> Little Garden -> Drum Island
I've noticed an odd little reoccurrence when it comes to Sanji being a simp. Men seem to really hate that side of him to the point of not being able to stand it at all. While girls love that side of him, finding it absolutely hilarious.
I tried reading the manga before but couldn't get far so I don't know much about One Piece. But the live action was unexpectedly soooo good. There was so much passion put into it. It makes me want to pick up the manga again. Also seeing that little clip of Nagisa and Karma, and with this video talking about live action, immediately made me remember the live action AssClass movies...
honestly I'm hoping that with live actions Zoros dislike of shouting finishing move names it's part of an extended ark. like imagine if he keeps on denying it all the way up to and through allabasta only to be fighting Mr.1. He's on the back foot, and starts sensing the breath of the world or whatever, go's for that final attack, and for the first time, says his attack's name. that would be pretty hype.
I missed your One Piece reviews so much❤❤❤ Looking forward for the Long Ring Long Island or Water Seven Review and don't worry, we can wait(at least for me)💕💕💕
As a one piece who's been fan for at least 15 years I recommended to any non-op fans to watch op live action before it came out. I so was exited to watch it. I also follow the production since it was announce it was going to be adapted.
Well said. But fr though I need mental help with how fast I'm getting through the anime. In the past two months I have crushed 275 episodes roughly, in big part due to binging the goated arc of Water 7/Enies Lobby. I'm too hooked bro.
Honestly I've been patiently waiting for your next video on One Piece. Thought somebody spoiled something for you and decided stop doing videos on the show. Glad you haven't given up I quite enjoy them.❤
No matter how long your videos take - I'm there to listen to anyone starting this awesome journey until we all make it to Raftel /Unicon! Also adoring your drawings, keep up the good work but please don't put yourself under too much pressure making those videos. Have a great weekend and enjoy yourself!
Tbh i think an ending like the real treasure is the journey / friends we made along the way would have sucked being in this series not because it would be a bad idea but its kinda depressing when you got people like crocodile blackbeard and half of the original 4 emperors murdering people and just making the world a worse place to be in over basicly whut would be nothing to them
When I first heard about it I thought it would be bad yes, but then I heard that Oda would have a ton of control over the project. Being able to decide cast, alterations, and changes. After I heard that then I knew it was going to be at least good. A live adaptation of an anime being "good" is high praise enough, but then this one turned out to be amazing. It hit all the right emotional notes and personalities. It gave tons of call backs to long time fans while being entertaining to newcomers.
I indeed loved the Live-Action. Almost as much as I loved rubbing the announcement of a 2nd season in my brother's face! (His excuse for not watching was that even if its great, it's not the kind of series Netflix is smart enough to not cancel) Side note: Looking forward to the reaction to Water 7!
I was hopeful when I saw the teasers for the set a year or so ago and at how much the main actors were really into the series. But yeah, it stayed a fragile hope until the 1st episode dropped, ngl.
0:33 sorry to say, but due to the amount of interviews with creators of the live action, and the cast, I think there were actually quite a few people who actually believed it would be good. 😂
I didn't really have any expectations for the live action tbh, I was just interested in how they were gonna so the story because I already understood that not every detail was gonna be in it.
tbh I also had a sneaking suspicion that the LA would be good if not something that I knew I'd like. I usually have a feel like this for things like movies as well
I was betting it wouldn't be good based on some of the leaks (and that converting animation to live action has only gone well like twice). Glad to be proven wrong
I had hopes in it cause of Oda's involvement, but still I went in with low expectations and they were surpassed very slightly Its storytelling elements that I enjoy in original series that I miss. We learn about where Arlong came from hundreds of episodes later, OP is known for long term pay offs and the LA doesnt do that. Also, it changed the nature of racism in it. One in manga hits so much more horrifying They left Hachi out all together even though he is such a cool character, so if budget constraints do that to East Blue, what will happen in grandline?? Everyone in Cocoyasi village would die for Luffy, but in LA they stepped aside when marines came (also, what lameass party was that, though thats just me overlooking). Thats really bad mishandling of side characters and Usopp got treated as side character too. It scares me that he might become a comic relief, while in OP, everyone in main crew fills that role
On Season 2, my money is on Robin, I bet they're gonna do so right with casting her, the right tan, the right woman, the right figure, the right personality, BAM, my wife in full bloom, maybe it's the most likely they'll do right! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 And especially Portigas D Ace can picture in my head
Oh if you want blue skies and happy but also demon lords then I would highly recommend the anime "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" it is my happy anime.
😢honestly this felt more review-ie and justifying and I wanted your all over the place telling us how each scene/episode made you feel but thanks for making the video.
One Piece is gold, all they had to do was try to stay relatively close to it, the mistake of most adaptations is the rejection of parts of what makes the source material work A good series are like well crafted dish, take away one ingredient and the entire flavour can be ruined, One Piece without all of its silliness or a different tone wouldn't work I had my doubts about this until the moment I watched it and and I am glad it proved me wrong
I am going to put these spoilers here for those who only have ever watched the live action series. Some of the major reasons why these adaptations fail is because of ideological shoehorning. One Piece already has the Kamabakka Kingdom and so remains relatively unscathed
My only real problem with OPLA is that it changes so many subtleties for no reason. Luffy saying its possible he doesnt beat arlong, nami not telling nojiko and nojiko not telling genzo and genzo not telling the villagers, usopp doing nothing during syrup village, and more i cant remember atm. Also the entire marine plotline is just unnecessary. If they cut that they coudlve added loguetown and finished it in 1 ep or less. Besides that I loved it. The casting, acting, action, and vibe of the story was great and you can actually feel the actors care for their characters. I think emily rudd and taz skylar did it best, then inaki, then makenyu and gibson. I hope they dont stray too far from the original story for alabasta saga or else it could feel every unnatural when we actually reach alabasta. Very interested to see chopper, dorry, broggy, vivi, and croc casting tho. Overall for me, it's a 7/10. Would be an 8/10 but I really disliked how they changed arlong's story
Honestly, I don't think it would be a good idea to end s1 with loguetown even if they had time. It's a perfect way to kick off the alabasta saga, and is more thematically in line with it too. But at the same time, I have 0 clue how they're gonna fit that entire saga into one season.
@@TheRovingPunster I can understand that, but like what you said idk how they'll fit loguetown into an already packed alabasta saga unless they do 10 or 12 eps and not 8. Or theyre just gonna have to cut a location or 2. Probably end up cutting whiskey peak or massively toning down loguetown, grand line, and whiskey peak into 1 ep or something
@@meetra5073 I definitely think it will be 10 Episodes or split over 2 seasons 1-2 episodes for loguetown Reverse mountain and the whale can be a single episode, and they can work in Mr 2 ahead of schedule there as well. Whiskey peak can be its own episode, and have room to spare for whatever B plot they add to the season. Little garden is easy 1 episode; just cut out all the pointless fights between Mr 3s associates. As is, Drum island deserves 2 episodes, but if they rework it as much as they did baratie, they might be able to fit it into one. I don't see any way alabasta ends with less than 4 episodes. All in all that puts it at 9 episodes minimum with 10 more realistically. If they *really* want, they could even cut out whale entirely, and try to introduce vivi on Whiskey peak, but I don't see where else they can introduce Mr 2 without having to dedicate most of an episode to it.
I expected it to be good a while ago. Unlike a lot of the alleged anime fan channels bitching about the show before it even came out or even a teaser trailer was released. I did the research and paid attention to the showrunner and crew.
I'm glad you mentioned excessive anti-Asian racism in Hollywood. Yes, I am in the same boat as you - One Piece has a great chance of success because it doesn't need to hire many Asian actors. Basically just Zoro and Hollywood can tolerate one token Asian. This is why I keep telling everyone Attack On Titan would work in Hollywood since it's basically full of white people and very little white-wash needed - Hollywood has a few half-Asian actors whom they insist are full Asians. The studio execs/producers and writer just don't feel Asians are attractive or interesting enough for Hollywood productions, even when Asian actors and productions keep proving them wrong. It's not going away and I already saw that they plan to white/black wash the living shit out of My Hero Academia, a show took place in Japan with almost every character Asian.
I knew it could because in all honesty one piece's story is more meaning and universal touching. Don't get me wrong other shows are great stories but op is better more meaning .
I, too, want more stories about platonic adult friendships that take place in a world that's not overly dystopian/depressing and not just more romance-centric stories.
tbf the world of One Piece IS overly dystopian^^
@@Himolino Sure, when you actually look what's going on. But it doesn't FEEL dystopian most of the time because of the general vibe of the show. It doesn't feel depressed, and I think that was what the Bad Doodles dude was getting at.
Many people in One Piece are often very hopeful (and Luffy is like the poster boy of Hope Incarnate). And I think that really makes a difference compared to...say....a show like Game of Thrones, where your faves are constantly dying and everything feels really bad.
I remember many times where I felt depressed after watching an episode of Game of Thrones. I don't ever remember feeling depressed after watching an episode of One Piece.
I hope that makes sense.
depends on where you are@@Himolino
@@napstabuuyt9672 do you mean "where you are" in the story or "where you are" living in the real world?

Go watch Iñaki meeting up with Oda and Mayumi Tanaka. Those videos will make you tear up. He's truly this universe's Luffy. ❤
Glad for all his success both oda and inaki

a live action adaption being good enough to get people into the real series as a whole is quite a feat very little live action adaptions are good let alone good enough to do that, and I attribute all of that to having people working on it that cared and not... actively hate the series like halo or have no investment in it like so many others, I mean cmon the producer has been a fan since childhood, is caught up on the manga and did interviews w UA-camrs he isn't just making it for the paycheck like bebop he wanted to do it right and was aware its different mediums and changed it accordingly
The moment Oda give Inaki the hat was such a beautiful moment😢
I loved the Live Action so much. Also was awesome having my country get to show off our talents. Proudly South African 🇿🇦

Thats really bad mishandling of side characters and Usopp got treated as side character too. It scares me that he might become a comic relief, while in OP, everyone in main crew fills that role
man, great takes here!
On Season 2, my money is on Robin, I bet they're gonna do so right with casting her, the right tan, the right woman, the right figure, the right personality, BAM, my wife in full bloom, maybe it's the most likely they'll do right! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
And especially Portigas D Ace can picture in my head
i did expected to be good. and i wasnt even a fan.
but when i saw the trailer, i knew it was gonna be fire
Another great amation about my favorite show live action version
1:25 Bold opinion, I like it.
Oh if you want blue skies and happy but also demon lords then I would highly recommend the anime "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" it is my happy anime.
😢honestly this felt more review-ie and justifying and I wanted your all over the place telling us how each scene/episode made you feel but thanks for making the video.
When we getting update on One piece
One Piece is gold, all they had to do was try to stay relatively close to it, the mistake of most adaptations is the rejection of parts of what makes the source material work
A good series are like well crafted dish, take away one ingredient and the entire flavour can be ruined, One Piece without all of its silliness or a different tone wouldn't work
I had my doubts about this until the moment I watched it and and I am glad it proved me wrong
3:26 bro u better take loan now as 72% interest rat is very very less she gave zoro money for 300% interest rate and zoro is still in debt
7:43 Naurto at least has blond hair and blue eyes, a no Asian my be fitting for him at least
Yo where the water 7 review?
in 2024
Did it spoil you on Garp or did you see that right before?
Da king is back baby he neva miss
I am going to put these spoilers here for those who only have ever watched the live action series. Some of the major reasons why these adaptations fail is because of ideological shoehorning. One Piece already has the Kamabakka Kingdom and so remains relatively unscathed
I love your animation
Might be the third yt I watch who says live action speed racer was good
My only real problem with OPLA is that it changes so many subtleties for no reason. Luffy saying its possible he doesnt beat arlong, nami not telling nojiko and nojiko not telling genzo and genzo not telling the villagers, usopp doing nothing during syrup village, and more i cant remember atm. Also the entire marine plotline is just unnecessary. If they cut that they coudlve added loguetown and finished it in 1 ep or less.
Besides that I loved it. The casting, acting, action, and vibe of the story was great and you can actually feel the actors care for their characters. I think emily rudd and taz skylar did it best, then inaki, then makenyu and gibson. I hope they dont stray too far from the original story for alabasta saga or else it could feel every unnatural when we actually reach alabasta. Very interested to see chopper, dorry, broggy, vivi, and croc casting tho.
Overall for me, it's a 7/10. Would be an 8/10 but I really disliked how they changed arlong's story
Honestly, I don't think it would be a good idea to end s1 with loguetown even if they had time. It's a perfect way to kick off the alabasta saga, and is more thematically in line with it too.
But at the same time, I have 0 clue how they're gonna fit that entire saga into one season.
@@TheRovingPunster I can understand that, but like what you said idk how they'll fit loguetown into an already packed alabasta saga unless they do 10 or 12 eps and not 8. Or theyre just gonna have to cut a location or 2. Probably end up cutting whiskey peak or massively toning down loguetown, grand line, and whiskey peak into 1 ep or something
@@meetra5073 I definitely think it will be 10 Episodes or split over 2 seasons
1-2 episodes for loguetown
Reverse mountain and the whale can be a single episode, and they can work in Mr 2 ahead of schedule there as well.
Whiskey peak can be its own episode, and have room to spare for whatever B plot they add to the season.
Little garden is easy 1 episode; just cut out all the pointless fights between Mr 3s associates.
As is, Drum island deserves 2 episodes, but if they rework it as much as they did baratie, they might be able to fit it into one.
I don't see any way alabasta ends with less than 4 episodes.
All in all that puts it at 9 episodes minimum with 10 more realistically.
If they *really* want, they could even cut out whale entirely, and try to introduce vivi on Whiskey peak, but I don't see where else they can introduce Mr 2 without having to dedicate most of an episode to it.
@@TheRovingPunster nah you can't cut laboon out or you miss crocus and the whole connection with brook, but yeah 10 ep they could prob fit it in
The curse isn't broken unless 2 live action anime after it are also good.
I expected it to be good as soon as I heard it was being made by fans and worked with Oda heavily
I expected it to be good a while ago. Unlike a lot of the alleged anime fan channels bitching about the show before it even came out or even a teaser trailer was released. I did the research and paid attention to the showrunner and crew.
Where’s the tribe cool crew explained with bad doodles 😟
What about the water7 saga?
Just don't let hollywood convey the "MESSAGE" and any show is good at least 😂
I'm glad you mentioned excessive anti-Asian racism in Hollywood. Yes, I am in the same boat as you - One Piece has a great chance of success because it doesn't need to hire many Asian actors. Basically just Zoro and Hollywood can tolerate one token Asian. This is why I keep telling everyone Attack On Titan would work in Hollywood since it's basically full of white people and very little white-wash needed - Hollywood has a few half-Asian actors whom they insist are full Asians. The studio execs/producers and writer just don't feel Asians are attractive or interesting enough for Hollywood productions, even when Asian actors and productions keep proving them wrong. It's not going away and I already saw that they plan to white/black wash the living shit out of My Hero Academia, a show took place in Japan with almost every character Asian.
Anything Oda is involved with is always good.
Bro Rurouni Kenshin broke the curse This was a great show though
WHERE IS WATER 7 😡😡😡😡😡🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 i NEED it
Wasn't Cowboy Bebop made for mostly a western audience tho? Or maybe I'm confusing that part with Big O.
Hollywood Live_Action curse
There are a lot of Japan love-action anime adaptation that are actually great
Luffy stole all the food lol
I knew it could because in all honesty one piece's story is more meaning and universal touching. Don't get me wrong other shows are great stories but op is better more meaning .
Wholesome whacky adventure with lore and serious themes? Have you watched adventure time????
Watching the vid and seeing a hetalia référence made my day
