I went into this show 100% blind. Had no idea it was a manga or such a long running anime at all. And I'm so happy I did because I loved everything about it. I have a co-worker who's an immigrant from Bulgaria and I always recommend shows to her and for this one I said to her, "Now this is a weird one, but trust me, you will fall in love with everyone on this show." Keep in mind she's in here mid 50's. She came back after a couple days off after I recommended it and told me, "You were 100% right."
- Sanji is protective over Nami simply because she's a woman; it could have been any woman. Their specific relationship doesn't play a part in this dynamic. - Luffy is very strong (not just agile). - "highly unorthodox" is a perfect description of Garp, "crazy" works too. - The reason Nami trusts Arlong is that, within his crew, there's a rule against lying about money. While this is touched upon during the poker game, it's more emphasized in the manga.
I think it also is some sort of a coping mechanism for nami... "we don't lie about money" is something she keeps telling herself because it has to be right... Otherwise all her efforts would've been for nothing... She can't imagine the thought of arlong deceiving her
YES! the sanji comment hurt me considering what we know later about why he loves all women and sees them as pure haha, get why people get confused without knowing i just wish people had faith in the story that there was a reason
Sanji and Zoro like each other. They are just extremely competitive with each other so they are constantly bantering about which one of them is stronger.
i dont think garp is supportive of luffy being a pirate, i think its quite literally what garp says in the episode, he knows he cant change luffys mind and he doesnt want to actually hurt/imprison/kill his own grandson
As for his waste of Marine resources... the man is coasting on his past glory, no one could lay a finger on him and he absolutely doesn't give a shit. Which allows him to actually follow his sense of justice.
well i think he wanted to make sure he wouldn't die in the grandline at the end and accepted he couldn't stop him, so basically what you said but i think he has accepted it now after the fight and i think his convo with zeff helped a lot with that
I would argue that Garp is supportive, to some extent. He doesn't like that Luffy is a pirate, and if he could, he would do everything to change it, he just wanted to know if Luffy is ready. He can't stop Luffy, but he can delay him enough untill he's strong enough to survive at least your average pirate opponents. He already executed Roger, and probably countless other pirates, he's not too hasty to execute his own family.
@@nihili4196allow me to disagree with you. " he's not too hasty to execute his own family ". you are completely wrong. Family is another story for him.
I loved the barrel scene where their adults selfs shout their childhood dreams. And doing it by making the older voice lipsync with their young selfs is so beautifull!
I wouldn't say that Zoro and Sanji hate each other. Like they would always help each other out. They just have a really intense rivalry, each trying to prove that they're the stronger of the two
Ive been watching the anime for more than 12 years and none of my friends never gave it a chance and thought it was just weird. Now those same friends who watched the Netflix came to me and said, I didn't know One Piece was good. I've been trying to tell them that One Piece is more than just about its wackyness and fight scenes, it actually has heart. The main premise maybe about searching for the One Piece, but as you progress it becomes alot deeper than just a treasure adventure. Til this day, we still don't know what the one piece is, but I have a feeling the One Piece isn't a treasure, I think its something more profound and it will change the world.
Sanji nature is being Gentleman towards any Ladies. He treats Women very special and never ever hurts women. He is kind a Simp in One Piece Anime. Sanji in La is more romantic vibes towards any women. So he upset someone bad mouth Nami is just his nature. Plus about Zoro and Sanji Rivalry is begain from Zoro starts bad mouth about Nami during Arlong Arc. So Sanji take that as an offense and hates Zoro from that point on. Technically, they don’t hate each other but they love to argue a lot and always ended up with a fight. Oh and Luffy personality is prefer anything fun and always care free. To the point that he doesn’t care about danger and acts like a Fool from time to time. Oh and Luffy will believe in Anything. And literally trust anyone even they are first met if he think that, that person is not a bad person. I want to explain why Garp didnt care that Luffy be a Pirate and against his dream of wanting Luffy to be a Marine. But it is considered spoilers so, I wouldn’t say anything. Every Monkey D. Family has wild paths. I’ll not saying anything.
Garp very much did care that Luffy wanted to become a pirate in both the manga and the live action. We see this in more recent flashbacks too, but even back when he was first introduced, he was calling shanks a bad influence for making luffy a pirate. In the live action, I get the impression he only changes his mind about Luffy due to Koby's talk
Before, when Nami was considering leaving the guys, she asked the bartender who to talk to about getting to the Conomi Island. That's why he knew where they'd go. Also, Sanji is upset over the guy badmouthing Nami, and wanting the hug, because he's a flirt with a crush on her. He has a lot of respect and appreciation of and for women. He didn’t want someone to badmouth her.
I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the One Piece Live Action. Luffy putting the straw hat on Nami’s head is a very iconic scene from the original anime and manga.
I think there are a surprising amount of people that do this, me and my gf included. Its kinda like watching season 1 of an anime but it's so good that you cant wait and go read the manga
If you want to know if the tension between Zoro and Sanji will let up, dont worry, it is more butting heads like brothers over being hostile towards each other. also, The reveal of each of the Strawhats's bounties are one of the hypest things in the series because they do get updated! i wont say much, but it gets wild! and Nami's tattoo is meant to be more of a tribute to Bellemere with the symbolism of the tangerine involved.
Most people don't catch on. Garp really was on a mission to stop his Grandson Luffy and force him to become a marine instead. But when he saw Gol.D.Roger in him, given his conversation with Zeff and prior interaction with Luffy, he changed his mind right then and there. But being a very proud man and proud marine, he played it off like he was testing Luffy this whole time (which he wasn't).
growing up with one piece anime and manga and seeing non one piece fans really liking the live action is enough to brighten one's day... i hope you watch the anime and enjoy the adventure and dont mind the long ass episode you will breeze by each episode in no time... #ThePirateJourneyIsWorthIt
Emily Rudd is definetly a hell of an actress, besides she really understands Nami because she's a fan of the anime. And yeah the show is good but they can't put everything together soo there's some context that is missing from the anime.
Garp is a legendary Hero of the Marines. He pretty much does whatever he wants. There's only 4 people in the Marines that outrank him, and 3 of them are officers that trained under him, with that fourth one being a very old friend of his that just tolerates his shenanigans.
When it plays Aurora song in the credits, i cried. I love One Piece so much. Been a fan since 2012, it makes me happy that one of the best anime live action adaptations belongs to OP. Great react, hope you'd see the anime!
For people that enjoy the live action, I recommend trying the anime up to the point the live action leaves off. You're not spoiling yourself, get a good taste of it, and can continue if you enjoy it. One episode at a time till you find you're no longer enjoying it or till you catch up! Those who haven't seen it fear it being too long, those that have know it's too short
I loved this show - one of my favorite lines in the finale (which I assume just didn’t make the cut in this version of your review) was the banter between Zoro and Sanji after Sanji defeats the fishman: Zoro: Mouton shot? Sanji: All great fighters call out their finishing moves. Zoro: Yeah, you’re gonna fit in just fine. I loved their friendly rivalry! They’re like siblings! I can’t wait for season 2!!!
Definitely watch the anime! As a One Piece fan for almost 2 decades, I love how the live action makes pretty much every non-anime watcher WANT to watch the anime!
it's rare to see an anime become a live action. it's even more rare to see a live action done well. all around, this is done well. yes a lot of character development is cut out, but understandable due to time limitations. the way things are going i'm sure that they will continue to develop more as they work through the story. thanks for your videos!
One piece is all about dreams the journey to seek and claim those dreams and the love of adventure. The most compelling thing about one piece is its characters, the world and of course the story. Oda created a masterpiece that i have watched/read for over 2 decades now
E7 12:40 Bellemeire dies 20:35 Help me E8 34:00 Garp arrives on cocoyashi village 37:22 Bounty, reactions 39:25 Mihawk-Shanks 40:53 Barrel scene, Smoker tease
Omg after watching this live action series I have been binging the anime. There is SO MUCH ahead and im beyond excited for it! We are all in for one hell of a ride once season 2 happens! 🐊 🐊 🐊
If you are interested, i recommend checking these out and reacting to it: 1. The appeal of One Piece, Where to start 2. Why you should watch/read One Piece I mean, you don't need to rush starting reading the manga or watching the anime. Just letting you know to check these out so you learn information about One Piece. Non spoilers i guess
Before this show started production, one of the two head showrunners got a chance to speak with the original author Eichiro Oda, basically in an attempt to convince Oda to give them the greenlight. He explained to Oda that in his eyes, One Piece is a story about not allowing our trauma or pain to define us. It's about moving forward and finding something to believe in, using our past to help shape our future, and never giving up on our dreams no matter what we've been through. After he was finished explaining his understanding of One Piece as a story, Oda reached over, placed a hand on his shoulder, and said 'I have complete faith in you now'. This adaptation understands the beating heart of One Piece, and that really makes it something special.
Emily Rudd did such an amazing job as Nami. Her bitter tears when she realizes she wasted most of her life working for Arlong hits me every time. It's so good.
The manga never flat-out says it, but the reason why Zoro is not so friendly with Sanji is probably because Sanji acts like a total simp around women, treating them like they're made of glass (especially in the manga). Zoro grew up with the opposite conception, as he had a girl beating his ass everyday.
I really loved how many new "nakamas" joining the "one-piece" world thanks to netflix live action. This is a summary of both manga and anime. And it makes me so proud that I've been a hardcore fan since 2004. I still recommend for newcomers to read or watch one piece anime/manga because it will hit different trust me
Thanks so much for letting this story and its characters into your heart, V! Many here have already mentioned what a special story Oda-sensei has created, and as a long-time fan of the anime, it does my heart good to see so many newcomers appreciate it. A few notes on your reaction, and things you noted: "His stupid little hat, it's so funny!" She said while wearing her cat's sombrero🤣 Speaking of hats, Zeff does indeed wear an unusually tall toque. But that's nothing compared to the one in the anime -- it's almost as tall as he is! Doing that in live action would have been good for a laugh, but probably hopelessly impractical. Recreating his braided mustache was already impressive, and likely difficult enough. The one with the huge lips is named Choo. Oda-sensei designed him as a smelt-whiting fish-man, and if you think those lips are extreme, you should see how he looks in the anime! Choo's look in live action is positively restrained. By the way, his name comes from the Japanese sound effect for a kiss (like *smooch*). The pinwheel is an especially poignant item for Nami, although this episode doesn't explain all the reasons why. It's also the inspiration for her new tattoo -- a pinwheel and a tangerine.
If this is making you cry, then story in manga is not for you, you will drown in tears. Live Action simplify the dynamics between everyone here for the sake of time, and I must admit that this version was done extremely well, some things were done arguably better than in manga even.
the relationships are not underdeveloped you just dont know why he loves women so much yet, there is a very depressing reason but he basically sees all women as good and pure you wont get that backstory for a good few seasons yet
Loved ur reactions to this series. I am 100% sure that, if you do choose to watch the anime, or even read the manga, I (and I'm sure many others) will be along for the ride from start to end. This live action does really well to capture the soul of the series, yet as good as it is it still ranks 3rd in the 3 ways I've enjoyed this story. It'd be great to have you on board as we set off to the grandline and beyond.
In fact I didn't really like One Piece at first. But I'd loved the live show. It was so fun and good feelings. And it makes me feel like I should retry to watch or read the original. So if you decide to make review of the anime, I think I will watch it too ^^
The reason why I love One Piece anime is that I don't have to wait years for next episodes. You have a thousand of it and it is worth it. The best show and story ever. We love the live action but I guarantee you the story in the anime is better, the towns people actually knows about Nami's plan and they are hiding that they know.
Sanji's weakness is beautiful women. In the manga and anime he will even outright refuse to attack beautiful women who are villains. He will also easily trigger if one is in danger or insulted.
I’m a die hard fan of the anime and I am just endlessly impressed with Emily Rudd’s performance, makes me cry so easily, I get why she cried watching back on the footage lol
Future interactions between garp and the higher ups: Higher ups: "Garp! It's your grandson again!!" Garp: "🤣" Useless hint: You've actually seen the guy at the end before, albeit very briefly.
zoro and sanji are always like that and its really hilarious in the anime. in the live action it looks more serious but in the anime its more goofy and funny. also luffy is really strong despite being skinny, he was tortured, i mean trained by his grandpa. you should definitely watch the anime and we will be here to watch it with you. i dont mind watching it again all the way through.
In the manga/anime Nojiko and the village knew what Nami was doing but pretend they didn't so she had a chance to leave. Nojiki got her tattoos when Nami was branded as a gesture to make her feel less alone/its not a big deal to be tattooed :(
One thing I hadn't thought about until seeing Buggy hanging on the wall in Arlong Park is that Buggy-sama would be the perfect target for a knife thrower...
Garp is called the Hero of the Marines because he's the one who captured Gold Roger so he has some leeway on how to use his time and the Marine's resources.
As for Garp, he was definitely trying to catch and prevent Luffy from following his dreams - out of his protective fear that Luffy would meet a similar fate to Gold Roger (...another family relative...? Perhaps?). But, Koby manages to convince him to change his outlook, and the moment when he says, "maybe I've been going about this the wrong way" is the moment when he decides to test Luffy and believe in him and hope that he will be strong enough to survive following his dreams of adventure.
Shanks and Mihwak are rivals and friends. Their fights when Shanks still had two arms were very well known in all the seas. Akagami (Shanks) is probably the only pirate that (in the heights of live action) Dracule respects.
I liken any adaptation to trying to paint an oil painting with water colours or crayons. Novels, comic books, manga and anime offer the author completely different sets of tools to engage and grip the audience. And because those tools are vastly different from medium to medium, something that works in one medium doesn't necessarily translate well to another. Take the literary device of the "inner monologue" for example. It's great when you read it in novels, comics and manga, but using it in live action and animation means you are going to lose your audience. So, when adapting the inner monologue you need to find other ways to get your point across. Going back to the analogy: Imagine having the task to paint the Mona Lisa with water colours. How do you do it? You could try to do a one-to-one recreation of the painting but that won't really do justice to the Mona Lisa because oil colours blend in different ways than water colors. What you will get is a pale imitation of the Mona Lisa. This is why most Japanese live-action adaptations don't work by the way. They transfer the source material *exactly* as it is on screen and the result is often not something you can take seriously. So painting the Mona Lisa with water colors doesn't quite work if you do it accurately. What actually works is using the water colors and the base of the Mona Lisa to create in your own way, with your own set of tools, something that invokes the same *feeling* you get while seeing the original Mona Lisa. So the adaptation is now not a question of "how do I translate the original on screen" but rather "what does the original make me feel". Ultimately, what does the original *mean* for me? This is why most Western adaptations don't work. Most of them are made by people who just don't get the source material and in some cases even actively hate it. And their lack of connection shows on screen. The main reason the Cowboy Adaptation didn't work was because it's clear that the people who made it were not fans of the original. They didn't get excited when Spike displayed his unique brand of martial arts on the first episode, almost dancing to Yoko Kanno's iconic music. They didn't laugh at Fay Valentine's introduction. They didn't get shocked when they found out Spike's past. They didn't cry at the final "Bang" on episode 25 and didn't bawl their eyes out when "The real folk blues" was heard one final time on screen. Ultimately, Cowboy Bebop didn't actually *mean* anything to them. It was just a paycheck to them. And their indifference showed on screen at the abomination that ended up being the end result. Because the people who made the adaptation felt nothing, the audience ended up receiving nothing. The main reason the live adaptation of One Piece worked was that the source material was important to the people who made it. Matt Owens, the show's producer has gone on record to say that One Piece saved his life and many of the actors involved either were fans of the franchise (Mackenyu & Emily Rudd) or became invested afterwards (Godoy). Ultimately, the people who made the Live-Action adaptation of One Piece did a good job of transferring the feeling of reading One Piece on screen because it *meant* something to them. They each put a piece of their love and their soul on screen and the result was something brilliant. They didn't just please old fans they bought new fans into the franchise because they knew One Piece was amazing and knew that if they made something that gave you the feeling of reading One Piece, other people would find it amazing as well. Was the One Piece adaptation perfect? Not by a long shot. It was however a perfect representation of how One Piece actually *feels* and for that it will also have a special place for me. If for nothing else in that it got the people close to me to *finally* understand what was so special about that weird "Japanese pirate cartoon" I've been watching for the past 20 years. In the end painting the Mona Lisa with water colours is not possible. The best you can hope for is your water painting bringing out the same feelings as the Mona Lisa. And making your little brother who bumps into your drawing realise that the Mona Lisa is something truly unique and special.
Oooh there once was a girl with tangerine hair, stole my map and left me stranded somewhere, truly a crafty and crooked young las but you cant deny she had a spectacular hey! Come on! - best pirate song ever
Garp relentlessly chase Luffy because he knew what the world can throw at him including the Marine , he just wanted to see whether he wavered or not ..and Garp clearly told Luffy he's on his own now meaning whatever happen , its the path he chose
Nani asking for Luffy for help in live action and anime will always hit your heart. I’m only 90 episodes in of one piece and so far that’s one of the 2 anime scenes that got me to cry heck that’s the only piece of piece other music to make me cry.
So much detail but so much untold, like how the hat had a mini windmill but didn't tell the story about how it get there, let's just say it was to make a baby stop crying because the guy face was scary to her,
That is the way many tribes did tattoos back in the day I know some traditional maori tattoo artist do it like that to this day. Probably just a bit more compliant to modern health and safety regulations
It's not so much that Garp always supported Luffy's dream. The moment a few episodes back where he says to Koby that "maybe he's gone about this all wrong" is the moment his attitude shifted from "stop it" to "prove it". He never wanted to HURT his grandson. He never wanted his grandson to become a criminal and be punished like Roger. But the moment he realized that nothing he could do could actually stop him, he decided his best next step was to stomp down hard and see if he broke. As he said in episode two, they can't be stopped unless you can break their dreams. Once he realized that was out of reach, he accepted it. That was the test, to see if his dream could withstand the obstacles in his way.
Garp isn’t supportive of luffy being a pirate but he also doesn’t catch or arrest him, he just beats him up for it, that part is the same than in the anime but normally the whole grandpa reveal and meetup happens much later. He is also like one of the strongest characters and what he is really capable is way beyond what you can imagine right now. For him its ok to waste marine resources and he always does what he wants, he also told coby in episode 6 he could be the fleet admiral(highest marine) if he wanted to buthe always turns down promotions, he doesn’t want to take orders from the world government and lose his freedom. He is also considered as the hero of the marine in the eye of the public and that gives him even extra points
I know you said in a previous video that you wanted to know if this show is accurate to the anime. Without spoiling anything, Netflix did remove quite a bit of the filler and merged some of the stories, but other than that, this is so much closer to the anime than I thought it would get. I can't wait for season two.
Yeah it'll do that, it's all fun and games until One Piece leans in and shows you that this fun and vibrant world has some darker edges to it too And Arlong Park is one of those moments, a tone shift into Nami's tragic past, validating all her sneakiness and distance throughout the last few arcs, shouldering all burdens and not allowing herself to rely on anyone, all paid off in one moment when she asks Luffy for help. I would encourage anyone interested to watch the anime, there's areas of padding for sure but there is some moments of added excellence too. I prefer subs to dubs if I'm honest but others have their preference. And then when you come out the other side the idea that the show is 'too long' ends up being 'now I gotta wait another week for just one episode!?'
Garp is a navy hero and could have been a lot higher in rank. But because of his ways and because he likes his freedom he didn't get promoted. But everyone in the navy knows who he is and let's him do as he wants

Sanji is just protective of every woman. Literally the only explanation you're looking for is that... he's the world's biggest simp 😅.
But we love him for it.
I went into this show 100% blind. Had no idea it was a manga or such a long running anime at all. And I'm so happy I did because I loved everything about it.

Keep in mind she's in here mid 50's. She came back after a couple days off after I recommended it and told me, "You were 100% right."
That’s amazing!!! I love that this brought many new people who knew nothing about One Piece ✨
The moment when Luffy puts his hat on Nami has always been a tearjerker and the actors absolutely killed it here.
Even the camera angles were perfect.
Zoro and sanjis back and forths are just amazing, it's like unspoken brotherly bond, they give eachother alot of crap but they respect eachother 🤘
Know i'm 8 months late. But after seeing that the Zoro/Sanji banter is a lot like the Zeff/Sanji banter I cant stop thinking about it 😄
- Sanji is protective over Nami simply because she's a woman; it could have been any woman. Their specific relationship doesn't play a part in this dynamic.
- Luffy is very strong (not just agile).
- "highly unorthodox" is a perfect description of Garp, "crazy" works too.
- The reason Nami trusts Arlong is that, within his crew, there's a rule against lying about money. While this is touched upon during the poker game, it's more emphasized in the manga.
Arlong being fair with money is also shown when Nezumi asks for double the money. Arlong's willing to give that to him until Nezumi talks shit.
I think it also is some sort of a coping mechanism for nami... "we don't lie about money" is something she keeps telling herself because it has to be right... Otherwise all her efforts would've been for nothing... She can't imagine the thought of arlong deceiving her
"crazy" only works for Garp in the LA.
YES! the sanji comment hurt me considering what we know later about why he loves all women and sees them as pure haha, get why people get confused without knowing i just wish people had faith in the story that there was a reason
@@ProbieKnox Wait what? Garp is batshit crazy in the Aime as well. If anything they played him a bit to serious in the LA adaptation.
Sanji and Zoro like each other. They are just extremely competitive with each other so they are constantly bantering about which one of them is stronger.
Not exactly "like" I'd say Respect In a bromance way🗿

Also he wanted to make sure he was ready and strong enough. And he sees he has friends now that support him.

He can't stop Luffy, but he can delay him enough untill he's strong enough to survive at least your average pirate opponents.
He already executed Roger, and probably countless other pirates, he's not too hasty to execute his own family.

The fact that Sanji only fights with his feet cuz he's a chef and needs to keep is hands clean and protected is such an awesome detail
I’m really happy you’re enjoying One Piece so far Vee! This show whether it’s anime or live-action, and the franchise is truly special
I'm so happy sooooo many people Luke it
crap character design and it looks uninteresting af!
I wouldn't say that Zoro and Sanji hate each other. Like they would always help each other out. They just have a really intense rivalry, each trying to prove that they're the stronger of the two
Zoro’s backstory was made so well, you can feel the weight of the promise he made

If you want to know if the tension between Zoro and Sanji will let up, dont worry, it is more butting heads like brothers over being hostile towards each other.
also, The reveal of each of the Strawhats's bounties are one of the hypest things in the series because they do get updated! i wont say much, but it gets wild!
and Nami's tattoo is meant to be more of a tribute to Bellemere with the symbolism of the tangerine involved.
Most people don't catch on. Garp really was on a mission to stop his Grandson Luffy and force him to become a marine instead. But when he saw Gol.D.Roger in him, given his conversation with Zeff and prior interaction with Luffy, he changed his mind right then and there. But being a very proud man and proud marine, he played it off like he was testing Luffy this whole time (which he wasn't).
if you want to read the manga, the first 12 volumes (roughly whats covered in this first season + a bit more) are officially free to read online
growing up with one piece anime and manga and seeing non one piece fans really liking the live action is enough to brighten one's day... i hope you watch the anime and enjoy the adventure and dont mind the long ass episode you will breeze by each episode in no time... #ThePirateJourneyIsWorthIt
Emily Rudd is definetly a hell of an actress, besides she really understands Nami because she's a fan of the anime. And yeah the show is good but they can't put everything together soo there's some context that is missing from the anime.
Garp is a legendary Hero of the Marines. He pretty much does whatever he wants. There's only 4 people in the Marines that outrank him, and 3 of them are officers that trained under him, with that fourth one being a very old friend of his that just tolerates his shenanigans.
When it plays Aurora song in the credits, i cried. I love One Piece so much. Been a fan since 2012, it makes me happy that one of the best anime live action adaptations belongs to OP. Great react, hope you'd see the anime!
For people that enjoy the live action, I recommend trying the anime up to the point the live action leaves off. You're not spoiling yourself, get a good taste of it, and can continue if you enjoy it.
One episode at a time till you find you're no longer enjoying it or till you catch up! Those who haven't seen it fear it being too long, those that have know it's too short
This was such fun I'm so glad you enjoyed I'm sure you would've loved the anime version too
i can't wait for a second season
I loved this show - one of my favorite lines in the finale (which I assume just didn’t make the cut in this version of your review) was the banter between Zoro and Sanji after Sanji defeats the fishman:
Zoro: Mouton shot?
Sanji: All great fighters call out their finishing moves.
Zoro: Yeah, you’re gonna fit in just fine.
I loved their friendly rivalry! They’re like siblings!
I can’t wait for season 2!!!
Definitely watch the anime! As a One Piece fan for almost 2 decades, I love how the live action makes pretty much every non-anime watcher WANT to watch the anime!
it's rare to see an anime become a live action. it's even more rare to see a live action done well. all around, this is done well. yes a lot of character development is cut out, but understandable due to time limitations. the way things are going i'm sure that they will continue to develop more as they work through the story. thanks for your videos!
"They are on chill terms" that is probably the best way to put Shanks and Mihawk's relationship as pirates
One piece is all about dreams the journey to seek and claim those dreams and the love of adventure. The most compelling thing about one piece is its characters, the world and of course the story. Oda created a masterpiece that i have watched/read for over 2 decades now

You ca always start the anime. *nudge nudge.
If you are interested, i recommend checking these out and reacting to it:
1. The appeal of One Piece, Where to start
2. Why you should watch/read One Piece
I mean, you don't need to rush starting reading the manga or watching the anime. Just letting you know to check these out so you learn information about One Piece. Non spoilers i guess
Before this show started production, one of the two head showrunners got a chance to speak with the original author Eichiro Oda, basically in an attempt to convince Oda to give them the greenlight. He explained to Oda that in his eyes, One Piece is a story about not allowing our trauma or pain to define us. It's about moving forward and finding something to believe in, using our past to help shape our future, and never giving up on our dreams no matter what we've been through.
After he was finished explaining his understanding of One Piece as a story, Oda reached over, placed a hand on his shoulder, and said 'I have complete faith in you now'.
This adaptation understands the beating heart of One Piece, and that really makes it something special.
If you ever start One Piece proper, you'll find it's one of the greatest stories ever told. Oda is not just a genius but someone who loves his story
Emily Rudd did such an amazing job as Nami. Her bitter tears when she realizes she wasted most of her life working for Arlong hits me every time. It's so good.
Most of her life? Canonically, Nami is less than 20. Eight years is hard, but definitely not "most of her life".
@@RazorStormInc they meant most of her "childhood", you know what they mean.
@@kiilee5963 Maybe they should have said that, then.
@@RazorStormIncdon't be mean :(
@@lightningjadejavier Sorry, I guess🤥
The manga never flat-out says it, but the reason why Zoro is not so friendly with Sanji is probably because Sanji acts like a total simp around women, treating them like they're made of glass (especially in the manga). Zoro grew up with the opposite conception, as he had a girl beating his ass everyday.
If there's one thing I love about One Piece, it's that no matter what form of media it takes, it will always find a way to make the viewer smile 😁
I really loved how many new "nakamas" joining the "one-piece" world thanks to netflix live action. This is a summary of both manga and anime. And it makes me so proud that I've been a hardcore fan since 2004. I still recommend for newcomers to read or watch one piece anime/manga because it will hit different trust me
So happy you enjoyed season 1, it’s been a great success and can’t wait for more. Hopefully Oda stays involved!
That's the thing with one piece you get a mc backstory,then you get a villain backstory, quite cool
Thanks so much for letting this story and its characters into your heart, V! Many here have already mentioned what a special story Oda-sensei has created, and as a long-time fan of the anime, it does my heart good to see so many newcomers appreciate it.
A few notes on your reaction, and things you noted:
"His stupid little hat, it's so funny!" She said while wearing her cat's sombrero🤣
Speaking of hats, Zeff does indeed wear an unusually tall toque. But that's nothing compared to the one in the anime -- it's almost as tall as he is! Doing that in live action would have been good for a laugh, but probably hopelessly impractical. Recreating his braided mustache was already impressive, and likely difficult enough.
The one with the huge lips is named Choo. Oda-sensei designed him as a smelt-whiting fish-man, and if you think those lips are extreme, you should see how he looks in the anime! Choo's look in live action is positively restrained. By the way, his name comes from the Japanese sound effect for a kiss (like *smooch*).
The pinwheel is an especially poignant item for Nami, although this episode doesn't explain all the reasons why. It's also the inspiration for her new tattoo -- a pinwheel and a tangerine.
If this is making you cry, then story in manga is not for you, you will drown in tears. Live Action simplify the dynamics between everyone here for the sake of time, and I must admit that this version was done extremely well, some things were done arguably better than in manga even.
The thing about Garp is that he always does what he feels like, like he doesn't even cares what his superiors say to him
the relationships are not underdeveloped you just dont know why he loves women so much yet, there is a very depressing reason but he basically sees all women as good and pure you wont get that backstory for a good few seasons yet
your final thoughts are what one piece are about and more. the anime hits the feels so so soooo much harder
Enjoyed your reaction for this! Watching this live adaptation is like going on a journey with these 5 members and so when it ended, I felt sad too!
Loved ur reactions to this series. I am 100% sure that, if you do choose to watch the anime, or even read the manga, I (and I'm sure many others) will be along for the ride from start to end.
This live action does really well to capture the soul of the series, yet as good as it is it still ranks 3rd in the 3 ways I've enjoyed this story.
It'd be great to have you on board as we set off to the grandline and beyond.
In fact I didn't really like One Piece at first. But I'd loved the live show. It was so fun and good feelings. And it makes me feel like I should retry to watch or read the original. So if you decide to make review of the anime, I think I will watch it too ^^
The reason why I love One Piece anime is that I don't have to wait years for next episodes. You have a thousand of it and it is worth it. The best show and story ever. We love the live action but I guarantee you the story in the anime is better, the towns people actually knows about Nami's plan and they are hiding that they know.
It wouldn't be nearly as much fun watching this without you. Keep up the great work!
Thank you😭💖🥹
Legit every question and everything u say gets answered in the anime😂😂 or will make sense. Never watched OP till I saw this. Now I’m 600 episodes in
in 4 month you on 600th ep ?! Tf i dont think she gonna watch the anime to
Sanji's weakness is beautiful women. In the manga and anime he will even outright refuse to attack beautiful women who are villains.
He will also easily trigger if one is in danger or insulted.
Such a fun show!! Loved it and loved your reactions!! Have started reading the manga.. this is how you get new fans !! What a great job
I’m a die hard fan of the anime and I am just endlessly impressed with Emily Rudd’s performance, makes me cry so easily, I get why she cried watching back on the footage lol
You asked how the waiter knew they were in the Conomi Islands.
That the waiter Nami asked in episode 5, which ship will sail to the Conomi Islands.
Sanji and Zoro got this sort of man warrior rivalry thing, they don't actually dislike each other, they just like being competitive about everything.
The full Nami story was too violent and mature to show in the Live-Action. Netflix would have been sued for child abuse.
I enjoyed your reactions so much. I cried again watching you feel so connected to the series, thanks a lot!
"Everyone's got such a tragic backstory"
Oh lady, they're just getting started
I hope you watch the anime :)
Future interactions between garp and the higher ups:
Higher ups: "Garp! It's your grandson again!!"
Garp: "🤣"
Useless hint: You've actually seen the guy at the end before, albeit very briefly.
zoro and sanji are always like that and its really hilarious in the anime. in the live action it looks more serious but in the anime its more goofy and funny.
also luffy is really strong despite being skinny, he was tortured, i mean trained by his grandpa. you should definitely watch the anime and we will be here to watch it with you. i dont mind watching it again all the way through.
The fact is arlong had a reason for being this way .
Ok... Now I need to see your cat wearing that tiny sombrero
In the manga/anime Nojiko and the village knew what Nami was doing but pretend they didn't so she had a chance to leave. Nojiki got her tattoos when Nami was branded as a gesture to make her feel less alone/its not a big deal to be tattooed :(
I feel sanji is underrated and it’s just because he’s a funny simp and he legit is my third favourite character
One thing I hadn't thought about until seeing Buggy hanging on the wall in Arlong Park is that Buggy-sama would be the perfect target for a knife thrower...
I like how she says Luffy hasn't got much strength as he's destroying Arlong's building.
Garp is called the Hero of the Marines because he's the one who captured Gold Roger so he has some leeway on how to use his time and the Marine's resources.
Such a great show! And so refreshingly positive. It's like the Ted Lasso of live action anime.❤
As for Garp, he was definitely trying to catch and prevent Luffy from following his dreams - out of his protective fear that Luffy would meet a similar fate to Gold Roger (...another family relative...? Perhaps?). But, Koby manages to convince him to change his outlook, and the moment when he says, "maybe I've been going about this the wrong way" is the moment when he decides to test Luffy and believe in him and hope that he will be strong enough to survive following his dreams of adventure.
27:30 I love how he talks about people like he knows who they are.
You shed tears with us. You are now part of our crew 😁
Shanks and Mihwak are rivals and friends. Their fights when Shanks still had two arms were very well known in all the seas. Akagami (Shanks) is probably the only pirate that (in the heights of live action) Dracule respects.
I liken any adaptation to trying to paint an oil painting with water colours or crayons.
Novels, comic books, manga and anime offer the author completely different sets of tools to engage and grip the audience. And because those tools are vastly different from medium to medium, something that works in one medium doesn't necessarily translate well to another.
Take the literary device of the "inner monologue" for example. It's great when you read it in novels, comics and manga, but using it in live action and animation means you are going to lose your audience. So, when adapting the inner monologue you need to find other ways to get your point across.
Going back to the analogy: Imagine having the task to paint the Mona Lisa with water colours. How do you do it? You could try to do a one-to-one recreation of the painting but that won't really do justice to the Mona Lisa because oil colours blend in different ways than water colors. What you will get is a pale imitation of the Mona Lisa.
This is why most Japanese live-action adaptations don't work by the way. They transfer the source material *exactly* as it is on screen and the result is often not something you can take seriously.
So painting the Mona Lisa with water colors doesn't quite work if you do it accurately. What actually works is using the water colors and the base of the Mona Lisa to create in your own way, with your own set of tools, something that invokes the same *feeling* you get while seeing the original Mona Lisa.
So the adaptation is now not a question of "how do I translate the original on screen" but rather "what does the original make me feel".
Ultimately, what does the original *mean* for me?
This is why most Western adaptations don't work. Most of them are made by people who just don't get the source material and in some cases even actively hate it. And their lack of connection shows on screen.
The main reason the Cowboy Adaptation didn't work was because it's clear that the people who made it were not fans of the original. They didn't get excited when Spike displayed his unique brand of martial arts on the first episode, almost dancing to Yoko Kanno's iconic music. They didn't laugh at Fay Valentine's introduction. They didn't get shocked when they found out Spike's past. They didn't cry at the final "Bang" on episode 25 and didn't bawl their eyes out when "The real folk blues" was heard one final time on screen.
Ultimately, Cowboy Bebop didn't actually *mean* anything to them. It was just a paycheck to them. And their indifference showed on screen at the abomination that ended up being the end result.
Because the people who made the adaptation felt nothing, the audience ended up receiving nothing.
The main reason the live adaptation of One Piece worked was that the source material was important to the people who made it. Matt Owens, the show's producer has gone on record to say that One Piece saved his life and many of the actors involved either were fans of the franchise (Mackenyu & Emily Rudd) or became invested afterwards (Godoy).
Ultimately, the people who made the Live-Action adaptation of One Piece did a good job of transferring the feeling of reading One Piece on screen because it *meant* something to them. They each put a piece of their love and their soul on screen and the result was something brilliant.
They didn't just please old fans they bought new fans into the franchise because they knew One Piece was amazing and knew that if they made something that gave you the feeling of reading One Piece, other people would find it amazing as well.
Was the One Piece adaptation perfect? Not by a long shot. It was however a perfect representation of how One Piece actually *feels* and for that it will also have a special place for me.
If for nothing else in that it got the people close to me to *finally* understand what was so special about that weird "Japanese pirate cartoon" I've been watching for the past 20 years.
In the end painting the Mona Lisa with water colours is not possible. The best you can hope for is your water painting bringing out the same feelings as the Mona Lisa. And making your little brother who bumps into your drawing realise that the Mona Lisa is something truly unique and special.
This is the best series ive seen!
And i loved your reactions!
Oooh there once was a girl with tangerine hair, stole my map and left me stranded somewhere, truly a crafty and crooked young las but you cant deny she had a spectacular hey! Come on! - best pirate song ever
Garp relentlessly chase Luffy because he knew what the world can throw at him including the Marine , he just wanted to see whether he wavered or not ..and Garp clearly told Luffy he's on his own now meaning whatever happen , its the path he chose
We welcome anybody who loves or just enjoys one piece in this fandom. Welcome aboard crewmate 😁👒
What a journey! Thanks for the uploads.
Nani asking for Luffy for help in live action and anime will always hit your heart. I’m only 90 episodes in of one piece and so far that’s one of the 2 anime scenes that got me to cry heck that’s the only piece of piece other music to make me cry.
So much detail but so much untold, like how the hat had a mini windmill but didn't tell the story about how it get there,
let's just say it was to make a baby stop crying because the guy face was scary to her,
That is the way many tribes did tattoos back in the day
I know some traditional maori tattoo artist do it like that to this day. Probably just a bit more compliant to modern health and safety regulations
Sanji is protective of every woman doesnt matter who it is lol
Garp being Garp. He doesn't mind wasting marine resources just to test Luffy. He has his own code of justice.
It's not so much that Garp always supported Luffy's dream. The moment a few episodes back where he says to Koby that "maybe he's gone about this all wrong" is the moment his attitude shifted from "stop it" to "prove it". He never wanted to HURT his grandson. He never wanted his grandson to become a criminal and be punished like Roger. But the moment he realized that nothing he could do could actually stop him, he decided his best next step was to stomp down hard and see if he broke. As he said in episode two, they can't be stopped unless you can break their dreams. Once he realized that was out of reach, he accepted it. That was the test, to see if his dream could withstand the obstacles in his way.
Sanji is an equal opportunity flirt. If he sees a pretty girl he instantly falls in love and will do ANYTHING for them.
i still bawling my eyes out. love the anime so much
Garp isn’t supportive of luffy being a pirate but he also doesn’t catch or arrest him, he just beats him up for it, that part is the same than in the anime but normally the whole grandpa reveal and meetup happens much later. He is also like one of the strongest characters and what he is really capable is way beyond what you can imagine right now.
For him its ok to waste marine resources and he always does what he wants, he also told coby in episode 6 he could be the fleet admiral(highest marine) if he wanted to buthe always turns down promotions, he doesn’t want to take orders from the world government and lose his freedom. He is also considered as the hero of the marine in the eye of the public and that gives him even extra points
Im ready for rewatch one piece with u!!!! Ahhhh!!!
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
I know you said in a previous video that you wanted to know if this show is accurate to the anime. Without spoiling anything, Netflix did remove quite a bit of the filler and merged some of the stories, but other than that, this is so much closer to the anime than I thought it would get. I can't wait for season two.
Yeah it'll do that, it's all fun and games until One Piece leans in and shows you that this fun and vibrant world has some darker edges to it too
And Arlong Park is one of those moments, a tone shift into Nami's tragic past, validating all her sneakiness and distance throughout the last few arcs, shouldering all burdens and not allowing herself to rely on anyone, all paid off in one moment when she asks Luffy for help.
I would encourage anyone interested to watch the anime, there's areas of padding for sure but there is some moments of added excellence too. I prefer subs to dubs if I'm honest but others have their preference. And then when you come out the other side the idea that the show is 'too long' ends up being 'now I gotta wait another week for just one episode!?'
Wholesome reaction, that was an amazing journey.
Garp is a navy hero and could have been a lot higher in rank. But because of his ways and because he likes his freedom he didn't get promoted. But everyone in the navy knows who he is and let's him do as he wants
