So excited to watch the rest of this show! We’re having a blast so far! It’s exciting knowing absolutely nothing about this. Thank you for showing some love ❤️
if you decide to watch the anime check the one piece fanwiki for the episode guide, the guide is broken down to several categories, the sagas are large arcs combining quite a bit of content and the filler, an unfortunately necessity to keep the anime alive while the manga runs ahead a few arcs, which can be skipped without missing anything as well as the movies, most of which are not critical to the main story. even cutting out the filler thats gonna be a long watch and itll wring everything out of you once you get invested i dont like the art style of the manga, nor do i care for the art style of the anime. im current on both
I recently found this channel looking for a good reaction to Hunger Games and now I see a noti saying y'all reacted to my most favorite story to ever be told??😭😭😭
Luffy really is special. He has to be my favorite anime protagonist for the reasons you mentioned. He is charmingly optimistic, but he's always sincere. I love when people who are completely new to One Piece watch this version and instantly find Luffy endearing. So wholesome. Thank you for watching!
This!!! It's truly so refreshing and wholesome to watch a character like this! We truly adore Luffy so far and cannot wait for the rest! Thank you so much for the support!!
Luffy believes in both his ability to attain his dreams and the ability of those he meets to achieve their dreams so hard that his body can't contain the sheer amount of conviction in his soul and it leaks out to infect everyone around and make them not only believe in him as hard as he does, but also believe in themselves as hard as he does. THIS is Luffy's true ultimate power. He will never be discouraged. He will NEVER give up on himself or his dream. And he will NEVER give up on anyone else, either. And this sheer self-confidence makes him a walking inspiration to everyone around him and everyone he meets. When Luffy clearly believes in you THAT HARD, you can't help but believe in you that hard, too.
I heard the manga creator was involved in the production of this show, and Luffy’s actor made him laugh. It's nice that things are on good terms like that.
Lol yesss, definitely not just the few years!! We loved the first episode so much that we're probably also gonna check out the anime whenever we have the time, this was such a fun ride!
@@OfficialMediaKnights I've seen 700 episodes of the anime. I recommend the Japanese version for plenty of reasons, but it's really the better VA cast, not to mention that should you ever catch up to current run with ongoing series, you won't have to wait. Some shows take years to produce a dub. I also recommend a guide for skipping filler, because as much as I liked the show, it was actually tough to see as much as I did. I do plan to get back to it sometime.
@@DarkKnightBatman420i dont expect reactors to but the best way to catch up is reading the manga (most of it is available in color and its really well done). sprinkle in some anime for the great VA lol
Fun fact: The majority of the stunts for this show were done by the actors, and Mackenyu (the actor for Zoro who has a pretty big pedigree as an action actor in other live-action adaptations) actually started doing training on his jaw muscles in order to be able to hold the sword between his teeth when preparing for this role.
@@Twenty4-n7n I mean, in my opinion Naruto is one of the greats, but not one of the best. For me One Piece is up there with Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. Nothing in manga and anime comes close to One Piece's worldbuilding and character development. But of course, that's my opinion.
@@leespn4396That's mostly because they build the characters faster, but OP is so long that the characters develop so much, that it ends up feeling like it takes a long time for major developments to happen. OP characters don't often have MAJOR developments, but they're constantly developing, and sometimes people can conflate character development with characters learning new things or realize new things, but that often gets conflated with characters being flat. One Piece has some of the most fleshed out motivations and backstories of any characters ever. Even minor characters have backstories that some authors fail to give their main protagonists.
Like you two, I went into this series blind. I knew nothing more than the names of a couple of the characters. I never watched an episode or read the manga. People around me have talked about it, but I didn't know what they were talking about. Anyway, I found this pretty enjoyable from start to finish, and I cannot wait for season 2. Most of the people in this series are unknown actors to me, and I think they all did a great job. I'm happy to hear fans of the series are enjoying this too. It's too bad that Cowboy Bebop couldn't pull off what this series managed to do.
It’s such a joy to discover new things especially if they’re this good! Nothing but happy for all the new people that are going into this just like us and for the king time fans that have been waiting for a live action. We’re happy they’re happy! Can’t wait to watch the rest but so far we’ve been enjoying every second of it!
Thank you so so much for your support, we truly appreciate you! It's honestly so nice to go into something like this blind because we really had no clue what to expect and it was such a beautiful surprise!! Cannot wait to share the rest with y'all!
One piece is the best anime story I've seen in my whole life, 40 paragraphs of unsolved mysteries, lores, characters, world building , everything about one piece is amazing
I was 10 when I found one piece I'm 27 now so from a long time fan I love the live action it's different than the anime but love that it nice to have something new
I am a super fan of this anime and the manga, have been for many years....your faces when you first saw Luffy's power, this is how I know they did a damn good job bringing in new fans...lmfao...I laughed so hard you two are great and you commentate very well together...glad you are enjoying the show, Zoro is my favorite all time character in any anime, but Luffy and him together is like the ultimate bad ass team, can not wait to see you guys react to the next episode....Have fun guys!!!
Thank you so much! That means a lot to both of us! Those powers caught us off guard and the reveal was done so well. I’m there with you! Zoro is a total badass. Can’t wait to share the rest with all of you 😃
@OfficialMediaKnights You both are so genuine, please keep going with this I have watch close to 100 one piece reaction videos and most are crap...finally found you guys who react with such enthusiasm giving us that feel we are there with you...absolutely brilliant to watch...keep it up you both with go far on your channel with that charisma....
For me who is a fan for 20 years, i am so glad to see new people qho likes the show. One piece is pure gold, great react guys, hope you enjoy the rest of the season.
As a fan from the anime I was pleasantly surprised They really captured the essence of the anime I cried multiple times while watching the live action Also, kobe is the kid from evil dead rise haha, they're so cute
That's honestly so great to hear!! We're so glad that fans of the original found something good in the live action adaptation because it's a rare occurrence! So far, we're loving it and cannot wait to share the rest of our reaction with y'all! Also yesss, I knew it was the same actor haha, couldn't be sure til I googled it!!
I’m happy seeing new people come to the one piece world. Even tho it’s long I promise you it’s still to short for use caught up . The story the journey will take you on an emotional roller coaster but ultimately it’s very interesting and entertaining
I first started watching this anime back in 2012, and now, 11 years later, I am still an avid fan and I love this first episode for the exact same reasons y'all have mentioned. I'm very excited for the rest of the season.
Good to hear you waited out to make sure it's actually good. Believe me, it worth your time. One of the best manga adaptation of all time and we havent got much of those.
One Piece makes me feel old. I’ve been watching it for 12 years and it was already out for like 12 years before that. I still love it though, great characters. Even to this day they keep getting better and better. Great commentary on this episode!
If someone asked me a year ago about anime that absolutely would not work in live action, One Piece would have been at the top of the list. And good god would I have been wrong. They did everything perfectly, casting, keeping the ridiculously over the top designs, even the snail phones ( blanking on the real term for them)
A lot of shows I have watched recently were grim dark. Not that it's bad, but got kinda samey. One Piece is a breath of fresh air, even though there are some really emotional, heart-tugging moments it is still a really positive vibe. My husband has watched all 1,000+ episodes and I'm just on episode 102 and would drop in to watch when he was on random arcs. It is totally worth to watch, it feels like its own world like LOTR or Harry Potter or Star Wars or Dune. Epic saga, like a modern Oddessy. Glad to see the live action is bringing in so many fans.
I've been a fan of the series for 13 years. As cliché as it might sound, it's seriously been one of the things that kept me going for many years. It warms my heart to see people be introduced to this fantastic series. They did a great job at covering the first saga, although the immensity of the mysteries the world has to offer are yet to be shown here. It's such a creative and expansive world. Glad you two are enjoying it :)
been a One Piece fan for a very long time, I got into it during the 4kids era and that was torture, but the anime has a lot of good stuff in it, so hearing this was in production I was incredibly skeptical, it was mostly cleared up during Luffy's introduction as Gudoy just sold Luffy perfectly, and it didn't disappoint at all.
This is the first anime's live action that made justice to its source material. Eichiro Oda who is the creator of One Piece was part of the production team, and he was the one who choose Iñqky Godoy as Luffy the main protagonist. So these is the first time that a live action anime made a good adaptation specially because Eichiro Oda's opinions were keep in mind, so he didn't leave to make any changes that could damage the world that he created. Many supposed expert critics criticized the fact that it is too faithful to its source material, however actually it is because its too faithful to its source material that it has been well received not only by fans but also by people that haven't watched the anime or read the manga.
I never got into the anime One Piece for various reasons. But I am really loving this live action show! It's so nice when a new show on streaming actually ends up being really good!!
I feel like this is manga accurate, because when I watched it, I immediately remembered important parts of the manga and anime that I had read and watched when I was a kid. I've watched all 8 episodes. Only if you say it's better than the manga, no it's not. If you say it's worse, no, it's not. You can't compare them because they have their own interests. So far, this is number 2 the best. Number 1 is still Alice in Borderland Live action netflix series. and number 3, Rurouni kenshin movie 1-5.
That is still a massive compliment! A lot of people that enjoyed the source material are enjoying the show. That means they must’ve done something right! Coming from a comic book reader background I can understand how important it is for people to feel like it’s been adapted with respect and including their favorite elements.
Thank you for mentioning Alice in Borderland. Everyone mentions how bad other anime live actions, which is true, they always fail to mention one that was a success which was Alice in Borderland. A true emotional experience almost 1-1 with the manga
The casts really did a great job delivering their roles. As expected from actors/actress approved by OP creator Eiichiro Oda himself. This live action project actually have been plan for years, glad that it turned out this amazing. Can't wait for season 2 that already got the green light from Oda and netflix! 🎉
Since season 2 is right around the corner, rewatching this with you guys is perfect. I love that they captured Luffy's charismatic yet overwhelming positivity in the live action. The only big difference in the source material is that Luffy never make plans. Dude always dive into trouble with pure instincts. Everytime somebody gives him a layout on what to do he just does the opposite😂 Luffy for me will always be the greatest protagonist
5:10 , the world building in One Piece is always unique in each islands/country Oda show us in the Manga/Anime. There is a video called "The Breathtaking World Of One Piece". There is no spoil about the story , just a taste of all the environment existing in OP that proof Oda made an awesome Manga.
I have been watching the reaction to one piece live action over youtube after finishing the series in netflix, and I love you guys expression and genuine reaction!!
Okay, maybe 4th time im watching this reaction as a playlist. I started watching when i was 13-14 and im now 30, what does that make? 16-17 years of following the anime? hahah! Just wanted to say to you guys that you have the most pure reaction out there. I have seen anime fans, and non anime fans of this live action, and no one has done it as well as you guys have. You say that Luffy has this genuine optimism, well.. you guys have a genuine reaction, without judging the universe, the world or anything. You like the acting, the camera angels, the scenery and the art behind the color differance for the emotions of the show. You also keep attention and analize. I wish season 2 was here, just so i could watch you guys react more! It will be epic! :D
Welcome to the One Piece community cause us can we love this anime, show and even manga that I haven't read I might read it soon. If you like this series you guys should enjoy the anime for sure if you guys want And also welcome to the pirate crew And so you know Luffy rubs you to follow your dreams
Haha thank you, it's great to be part of the community!! What a fantastic start to what we suspect is a great show!! We'll check out the anime for sure when we have time!! Also looove Luffy and his undying optimism, it's so wonderfully refreshing!!
Thank youu!! We're complete newbies to the story so it's so awesome - feels like a rollercoaster!! Definitely stay tuned, the rest of the episodes will be up very soon!
I love that little detail that when Nami and Zoro first disagree with Luffy they use dfifferent phrases. But when they disagree to be a crew the second time they actually say the same thing :D
Thank you for watching this with us! Also we’re so happy to see him in this! Enjoyed his performance in Evil Dead Rise and so far as Koby he’s done great😄
Welcome aboard guys! New follower here, ive been reading One Piece since i was 13yo, im 2yo now. Safe it to say, i have only nit-pick complaints that dont deserve to be mentioned in the first place. As a 19yo fan of One Piece. My big concern was how people like you, who are going in totally blind, wont have a good time watching it. But that concern has been blown out of the water, as every new fan thst came from this, really loves it. (Soery for the long comment lol)
We can honestly say the way the introduce you to the world was executed very well! We didn’t feel lost along the way or like we were missing important information. But most importantly they kept it fun! This is a joy to watch and I’m so happy for all the newcomers that are able to experience this story and for the long time fans now having a live action adaptation that’s actually good. Thank you so much for watching this with us it truly means the world ❤️
Honestly it’s such a weird feeling but so exciting at the same time! Normally we know something about it like yeah this is a superhero movie or a horror etc but in this case all we had was a name. We’ve been hearing so much about how good it was so we had to check it out for ourselves 😃
I’ve only watched around 80 episodes of the anime before I kind of quit. It just didn’t work for me, even though there were a couple arcs that hit me hard. However, I really enjoyed the Live Action, I actually spent an entire night binging it. I think it’s biggest strong suit is that it doesn’t take itself super seriously. It doesn’t feel dark and gritty, it’s having a fun time. I mean, you can actually see what’s happening in scenes that take place at night! What a concept! The stretch cgi can look a little goofy but genuinely, I think it adds to the charm. The cast look like they’re having a blast. And I believe they did most if not all their own fighting and stunts. There’s a lot of love and passion put into this and while I have a few nitpicks I really hope we get a season 2.
There is so many easter eggs from the manga/ anime but there is also stuff from sbs where Oda answer question or gives us information like the food each Straw Hat likes and dislike. In this scene with Zoro by Oda telling us Zoro hates chocolate because to sweet show he even eat a thing he hates just to make a small child happy.
I'm definitely here along for the ride. Totally subscribed. Gave you guys a thumbs up as well? Great video I love seeing new people reacting to the world of one piece. So to welcome, welcome, can't wait to see your reactions to the rest.❤🎉❤🎉
I was really skeptic of this LA at first, bc LA tend to be bad and most LA doesn't respect the original story. But after some convincing, I decided to try to watch it. And OMG I can't believe how good the LA is! I'm so amazed at how all the pieces fit together, how respectful they are to the story, and how perfect the casting is!
Oda really knows how to get new audiences. Since some people are reluctantly to watch the anime or read the manga given its insane length. Turning it into live action with him managing the show is just phenomenal marketing. Oda is definitely one of the greatest artist, writer and businessman
It didn't let the spark of original version to die although, they have changed a lot. The biggest reason is the direct involvement of the creator, Oda sensei.
4:22 how did you know it was him!!?? (Cause it is) Not that I’ve seen it, is he really all that recognizable in it? I only heard behind the scenes stuff that he was in evil dead rising or something.

So excited to watch the rest of this show! We’re having a blast so far! It’s exciting knowing absolutely nothing about this. Thank you for showing some love ❤️
the snail phone is called den den mushi in japanese, they have telepathic abilities that connect to each snails and can mimic the voice of a person...

i dont like the art style of the manga, nor do i care for the art style of the anime.
im current on both

This!!! It's truly so refreshing and wholesome to watch a character like this! We truly adore Luffy so far and cannot wait for the rest! Thank you so much for the support!!
@@OfficialMediaKnights I hope you enjoy the rest of the season!
Same here.
Luffy believes in both his ability to attain his dreams and the ability of those he meets to achieve their dreams so hard that his body can't contain the sheer amount of conviction in his soul and it leaks out to infect everyone around and make them not only believe in him as hard as he does, but also believe in themselves as hard as he does.
THIS is Luffy's true ultimate power. He will never be discouraged. He will NEVER give up on himself or his dream. And he will NEVER give up on anyone else, either.
And this sheer self-confidence makes him a walking inspiration to everyone around him and everyone he meets. When Luffy clearly believes in you THAT HARD, you can't help but believe in you that hard, too.
I heard the manga creator was involved in the production of this show, and Luffy’s actor made him laugh. It's nice that things are on good terms like that.
Ohhhh what, that's awesome!! You're so right, it's always great to hear when the set environment was just as fun as the actual show!
Netflix actually agreed that the show wouldn’t come out of production until Oda was happy with it - he did make them reshoot some parts.
Oda apparently nixed a Zoro x Nami romance the producers REALY wanted. But he was like “no! This is not a rom com!”
Oda-sensei actually 'crowned' Iñaki with the straw hat. Which basically means he is royalty now.
@@Shadow1Yaz he did??? Oh my god, that fact alone makes me forever grateful to him.
Anime is not few years back mate😂The anime's been running for nearly 25 years with 1000+ episodes ( : Its amazing. I would def recommend it!!

The fact that he’s reuniting with his personal stunt team for Season 2 makes me excited to see the increase in quality with his fight scenes
Koby the pink haired boy is in fact the actor from Evil Dead Rising!
Gaahhh, knew it!! Had to wait til we finished the episode to google it!! What a fantastic actor!
I have been a One piece fan only for 2 years, all I will say is it is one of the best story I have seen.

Haha awww thank youuu!! Hope you enjoy our reaction!!
This is the first anime's live action that made justice to its source material. Eichiro Oda who is the creator of One Piece was part of the production team, and he was the one who choose Iñqky Godoy as Luffy the main protagonist. So these is the first time that a live action anime made a good adaptation specially because Eichiro Oda's opinions were keep in mind, so he didn't leave to make any changes that could damage the world that he created. Many supposed expert critics criticized the fact that it is too faithful to its source material, however actually it is because its too faithful to its source material that it has been well received not only by fans but also by people that haven't watched the anime or read the manga.
Good to see reactions that are fresh who don’t know the story, enjoy the adventure!

I never got into the anime One Piece for various reasons. But I am really loving this live action show! It's so nice when a new show on streaming actually ends up being really good!!
I feel like this is manga accurate, because when I watched it, I immediately remembered important parts of the manga and anime that I had read and watched when I was a kid. I've watched all 8 episodes. Only if you say it's better than the manga, no it's not. If you say it's worse, no, it's not. You can't compare them because they have their own interests. So far, this is number 2 the best. Number 1 is still Alice in Borderland Live action netflix series. and number 3, Rurouni kenshin movie 1-5.
That is still a massive compliment! A lot of people that enjoyed the source material are enjoying the show. That means they must’ve done something right! Coming from a comic book reader background I can understand how important it is for people to feel like it’s been adapted with respect and including their favorite elements.
Thank you for mentioning Alice in Borderland. Everyone mentions how bad other anime live actions, which is true, they always fail to mention one that was a success which was Alice in Borderland. A true emotional experience almost 1-1 with the manga
The casts really did a great job delivering their roles. As expected from actors/actress approved by OP creator Eiichiro Oda himself. This live action project actually have been plan for years, glad that it turned out this amazing. Can't wait for season 2 that already got the green light from Oda and netflix! 🎉
4:20 that is the kid from the Evil Dead Rise movie. lol
Since season 2 is right around the corner, rewatching this with you guys is perfect. I love that they captured Luffy's charismatic yet overwhelming positivity in the live action. The only big difference in the source material is that Luffy never make plans. Dude always dive into trouble with pure instincts. Everytime somebody gives him a layout on what to do he just does the opposite😂 Luffy for me will always be the greatest protagonist
Love when people gives a chance to One Piece and then they get in love with the history. ❤
5:10 , the world building in One Piece is always unique in each islands/country Oda show us in the Manga/Anime. There is a video called "The Breathtaking World Of One Piece". There is no spoil about the story , just a taste of all the environment existing in OP that proof Oda made an awesome Manga.
Been a one piece fan for 15yrs it's the greatest anime ever made.
I have been watching the reaction to one piece live action over youtube after finishing the series in netflix, and I love you guys expression and genuine reaction!!
Okay, maybe 4th time im watching this reaction as a playlist. I started watching when i was 13-14 and im now 30, what does that make? 16-17 years of following the anime? hahah! Just wanted to say to you guys that you have the most pure reaction out there. I have seen anime fans, and non anime fans of this live action, and no one has done it as well as you guys have. You say that Luffy has this genuine optimism, well.. you guys have a genuine reaction, without judging the universe, the world or anything. You like the acting, the camera angels, the scenery and the art behind the color differance for the emotions of the show. You also keep attention and analize. I wish season 2 was here, just so i could watch you guys react more! It will be epic! :D
Thanks guys for this video, love your reaction so much and can't wait until you finish this series
I've been watching One Piece for almost 20 years now... 😊✌
And those who watched it.. has an awesome childhood...
“I made a promise…to become the worlds greatest swordsman.”
“I’d say you already achieved that!”
Me: Oh…if only you knew...
They will eventually.
Haha honestly we cannot wait to see!!
Mihawk has entered the chat
After all, you wouldn't hunt a rabbit with cannons
The fact alone that Oda crowned Iñaki as Luffy is sooo good.
If you are the perfect Luffy for the guy who created him you are the chosen one.
Welcome to the One Piece community cause us can we love this anime, show and even manga that I haven't read I might read it soon.
If you like this series you guys should enjoy the anime for sure if you guys want
And also welcome to the pirate crew
And so you know Luffy rubs you to follow your dreams
Haha thank you, it's great to be part of the community!! What a fantastic start to what we suspect is a great show!!
We'll check out the anime for sure when we have time!!
Also looove Luffy and his undying optimism, it's so wonderfully refreshing!!
@@OfficialMediaKnightsjust so you know if you ever going to watch anime I would say sub cause dub it's horrible but its your choice.
it's refreshing to see reaction from first time watchers!
Omg just finished season 1.. it was Sooooo Good Ahhhh!! Great reaction guys!!!
YES!!! I got excited when I saw that y'all watched this! YAY.
They really did a great job on this. I was hooked on the first episode.
Nice that you are watching this. ❤❤❤ im glad that non one piece watchers tried to watch the live action, keep it up. I want to see more episodes.
Thank youu!! We're complete newbies to the story so it's so awesome - feels like a rollercoaster!! Definitely stay tuned, the rest of the episodes will be up very soon!
I also never saw the original but i really enjoy this story has always.
I love that little detail that when Nami and Zoro first disagree with Luffy they use dfifferent phrases.
But when they disagree to be a crew the second time they actually say the same thing :D
I am really enjoying your reactions to this! One Piece is an amazing anime and Netflix really outdid themselves!😀
One piece's world building is perfection!
LET'S GOOOO happy for the reaction!!
Emery! So cool to see you! Thank you for watching ❤️
@@OfficialMediaKnights Loved the reaction!! can't wait for the rest ~! (and ofc I will always be here haha! awesome job to both of you!!)
Love that your now watching this. Also that was very quick of you to pick up on the actor from the evil dead movie.
Thank you for watching this with us! Also we’re so happy to see him in this! Enjoyed his performance in Evil Dead Rise and so far as Koby he’s done great😄
Actually this is better from the anime ..they did amazing job.. really love this
4:19 because he is that actor who played in the evil dead series!
Welcome aboard guys! New follower here, ive been reading One Piece since i was 13yo, im 2yo now. Safe it to say, i have only nit-pick complaints that dont deserve to be mentioned in the first place.
As a 19yo fan of One Piece. My big concern was how people like you, who are going in totally blind, wont have a good time watching it. But that concern has been blown out of the water, as every new fan thst came from this, really loves it.
(Soery for the long comment lol)
We can honestly say the way the introduce you to the world was executed very well! We didn’t feel lost along the way or like we were missing important information. But most importantly they kept it fun! This is a joy to watch and I’m so happy for all the newcomers that are able to experience this story and for the long time fans now having a live action adaptation that’s actually good. Thank you so much for watching this with us it truly means the world ❤️
the anime is goated, and I binged the live action over and over thats speaks volume.
It floors me yet very interesting seeing someone go into this without even knowing this is about pirates. XD
Honestly it’s such a weird feeling but so exciting at the same time! Normally we know something about it like yeah this is a superhero movie or a horror etc but in this case all we had was a name. We’ve been hearing so much about how good it was so we had to check it out for ourselves 😃
I’ve only watched around 80 episodes of the anime before I kind of quit. It just didn’t work for me, even though there were a couple arcs that hit me hard. However, I really enjoyed the Live Action, I actually spent an entire night binging it.
I think it’s biggest strong suit is that it doesn’t take itself super seriously. It doesn’t feel dark and gritty, it’s having a fun time. I mean, you can actually see what’s happening in scenes that take place at night! What a concept!
The stretch cgi can look a little goofy but genuinely, I think it adds to the charm.
The cast look like they’re having a blast. And I believe they did most if not all their own fighting and stunts.
There’s a lot of love and passion put into this and while I have a few nitpicks I really hope we get a season 2.
Welcome to the one piece world! Hope you have fun traveling trought the seas!
Love this new look at the series, hope you guys are well 😊
Thank you sooo much, always happy to see your comments!! Thank you so much for your support!
There is so many easter eggs from the manga/ anime but there is also stuff from sbs where Oda answer question or gives us information like the food each Straw Hat likes and dislike. In this scene with Zoro by Oda telling us Zoro hates chocolate because to sweet show he even eat a thing he hates just to make a small child happy.
The guy with the pink hair and glasses is the actor from evil dead rise 😂😂😂
Denise, I love your voice everytime you're talking
I loved your review. I hope we get to see one for episode 2 ❤❤
idk why i'm so shock that some people doesn't actually know one piece! so i'm loving the reaction
I'm definitely here along for the ride. Totally subscribed. Gave you guys a thumbs up as well? Great video I love seeing new people reacting to the world of one piece.
So to welcome, welcome, can't wait to see your reactions to the rest.❤🎉❤🎉
Thank you so much for showing us so much love and support! It truly means the world to us. This is gonna be such an amazing ride ❤️😄
I think surviving the fall made sense in an anime way Luffy being rubber absorbed the impact for Nami.
i just realized that the reason i like y'all's channel so much is denise reminds me of my aunt!
Fun fact! The actor who plays koby is the same actor from evil dead rise who was the brother so you were right ✨
The 2 young men that it zoomed in on during Gol D Rogers execution was Mihawk and Shanks
Koby is actually the kid from Evil Dead Rise.. was wondering too when I 1st saw him in Alvida's ship 😂😂😂
"Ohhh nice reflexes!" Hahahahaha yes.
0:10 the One Piece anime has been dropping for 25 years straight and still is every week, 1060+ episodes.
17:55 Just wait for Mihawk
Great reaction! :)
Thank you so much, we're so glad you enjoyed it!!
I love the reactions ❤
I started watching One piece when I was in high school. I'm now 38
also "dropped a few years back" lol the anime has been on tv since 1999
Finally, glad you guys react this
Thank you for showing some love! Didn’t know what to expect going into this but loving it so far!
Consider the OPLA as an 8 hour trailer for what the franchise has to offer haha love the reaction!
After you guys are done with the live action, you should check out a couple of episodes of the anime.
Zoro literally doesn't skip jaw day, in the anime there is a scene where he put a dumbbell in his jaw as a kid to learn the sword
welcome to one piece friends
I was really skeptic of this LA at first, bc LA tend to be bad and most LA doesn't respect the original story. But after some convincing, I decided to try to watch it. And OMG I can't believe how good the LA is! I'm so amazed at how all the pieces fit together, how respectful they are to the story, and how perfect the casting is!
Just got to this part 4:20 - That IS the kid from the evil dead rise movie! 😂😂 good guess!
"A few years back" Yeah, sure, a few. 20+ is a few right?
I have no idea about this. But I am loving it
Oda really knows how to get new audiences. Since some people are reluctantly to watch the anime or read the manga given its insane length. Turning it into live action with him managing the show is just phenomenal marketing. Oda is definitely one of the greatest artist, writer and businessman
The actor for the pink haired guy IS the actor in the Evil Dead Rise movie. Good catch.
Hahaaaa yess!! So cool to see him in something so different!!
Por favor reaccionen al capitulo 2! Los amo ❤
It didn't let the spark of original version to die although, they have changed a lot. The biggest reason is the direct involvement of the creator, Oda sensei.
4:22 how did you know it was him!!?? (Cause it is)
Not that I’ve seen it, is he really all that recognizable in it? I only heard behind the scenes stuff that he was in evil dead rising or something.
Just so you know, the kid in glasses played Danny in Evil Dead Rise. He is that kid you were talking about 😂
Loved him in Evil Dead Rise and he’s already killing it in this! The performances are through the roof! 😃
