I think the Buggy circus concept really works here. Buggy is forcing people to laugh and smile, which is in contrast to Luffy who is all about wanting people to have freedom, laugh, and smile
@davidmeister9697 well buggy arc is the lowest tier of all in anime and manga because its joke time but barattie and arlong arc is the rise of one piece in the 19s no lie btw
@@insatiablehunger2138Usopp was never all that interesting even in the manga and Captain Kuro was carrying the whole episode 3 and 4 on his back in the live-action so I give episode 3 a 75% and episode 4 an 80%
I mean when you pull rubber you can break it, so I don't think that was overly goofy. But Luffy saying, "Never!" and Buggy saying "Why not!?" and then hurting his hand on the glass among a few other moments gave him that goofy vibe. Early Buggy in OP was menacing too so I think they absolutely nailed it.
They do a pretty good job at acknowledging the more anime style things they had to cut, such as Richie and Luffy talking about flying into the Marine base by grabbing onto a giant bird
It's always been funny that in the beginning of the story Buggy can be seen more of an actual threat but as time goes on its becomes more apparent that he's more of a joke than a threat. Jeff Ward shows that 'threat' side well but as time moves you start to see that 'joke' side of his character, more in later episodes
Buggy is so good! Honestly the most engaging part of the entire season to me is that we are following Koby because it really is the newest material. Garp is also a standout to me. I love the way they did Luffy's backstory with Shanks and the Lord of the Coast. I am sad they didn't keep Shanks' "put your life on the line " quote tho. I always thought that was the most badass line. I love that each episode's title screen is a different Jolly Roger!
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS . . . . . . . . I also loved Garp this season. Especially the scene between Garp and Zeff. I loved seeing the juxtaposition between a father figure able to let go of his son, let him be his own person and actualize his dreams, while Garp is desperately trying to control Luffy and push his own dreams onto him. It’s simultaneously a story about coming of age and parents struggling to let their children go and be their own people. Just beautiful! 🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌
Boogie was actually meant to be the name of Buggy initially, also Zoro was meant to be on his crew. I love how they have the little Easter eggs for the super One Piece nerds. You can tell that Artur (Livrary of Ohara) was involved, great decision!!
This feels similar to how they handled The lord of the rings trilogy, They keept the heart of the story. Changed and removed some part to make the story flow better, while keeping the core parts intact. And by keeping the small details, One Piece fans gets some treat while first time watches gets a good, well ballanced story. I hope they keep this up. I generally arn't a fan of live action versions of animes/mangas. But they have so far handled it great and I hope it will continue. X)
I'm getting that feeling as well. So many adaptations completely rewrite the overall story/world and change major character events/traits/personalities. So far these characters feel like their characters from the manga/anime and they are hitting many of the major story beats, even if they are altered some.
Ruff noticed them using Nami's concept art outfit but another little easter egg is that Buggy's original concept had him named "Boogie the Clown" and what does Luffy misname him as in this episode? Boogie.
One of the biggest things i was waiting for is how well they would handle buggy's devil fruit, and they FECKIN NAILED IT. exactly like i imagined it would be, its perfect
Very good adaptation. All the changes were made well in good taste, great pacing for 8 hour long episodes, the cast is fantastic, and the set design is out of this world! Of course nothing is ever perfect but this really was something special and I can’t wait for more. My only real complaint is that I hope in future seasons we get a higher episode count!
@@zionfreedom9149that's your opinion. And not even a very popular one. Most ppl are happy with the changes as they don't ridicule the anime and manga (let's not forget those two are different too) yet stay true to the vibes
Lowkey should give extra props to the LA given the fact that East Blue Saga is easily one of the weakest in the series yet they somehow made Syrup Village arc watchable.
5:12 everyone talks about the performance of Buggy in this episode (he was absolutely wonderful btw), but after rewatching the entire show it stands out that the camera focuses on Luffy right after Nami tried to cut and run. They pulled her back into the room and he literally cares more about observing how upset she is, he doesn't care about the betrayal. Foreshadowing how much he judged her character early on and he had faith in her later in the season when they went to rescue her, it was only a tiny moment of the episode but it shows how much detail they put into every single second of the filming
I think this live action also a really good entry for new one piece fan, I feel nostalgic watching it but I totally can see how this can reach new audience. Love love it.
I totally agree with you guys.. one piece changed my life.. but i couldn't get my family interested in it... Me and my sister always share what we are interested in... But she refused to watch anime . Especially if its that long.. but i bugged her to watch one episode of this when ut came out.. and she binged watch the rest with me.. it was the greatest feeling ever.. finally being able to share that happiness and epicness of one piece with my sister .. and yeah she said she wanna see anime now😂😂😂
I watched the whole 8 episodes - and there are a lot of " FEELS " to come... like, I hope it's not just me, but it's so well filmed / written that some moments hit me in the feels harder than it has any right to. I was shook.
I just finished your episode 1 reaction and this shit is already up for me to keep going? Please keep them coming as fast as possible. I love you guys. In regards to the episode? Jeff Ward is now *the* Buggy as far as I'm concerned. He steals the show in every regard, and his performance is just fucking perfect.
Buggy was on Roger's ship and went to the New World, the anime showed that he used his power at their lowest capacity. Like he had a month of practice and called it quits, this version shows that he actually put some effort into honing his skills.
thank you guys for the double drop!~ big love, and such a surprise, i watched episode 1 and then went grocery shopping and came back and was like "why does it say the video i just watched isnt watched... OMG EPISODE 2!?" also i need a link for Milord Kneebrace's shirt
I think for the most part, this is its own thing but i think the showrunners still want newcomers to be interested enough to be like "i wonder what happens next, i should read the manga" but as its own thing its really quite good
Iñaki Godoy as Luffy and Jeff Ward as Buggy are the standouts for this season, IMO. They manage to capture the energy I expect. I also love the fact that Usopp isn't as snivellingly shrieking as he is in the anime. I know a lot of people enjoy his portrayal in the anime, but his high-pitched screaming put me off watching it all the way through. I managed to stick it out for the entirety of the Skypeia Arc, but whenever I thought about watching more, I always came crashing up against Usopp's snot-riddled face screaming like a little girl. Jacob Romero gets to play him a bit cooler, and I'm so very much here for that.
@@peytonalexander5300 So people tell me. That should tell you exactly how much I freaking hate Usopp in the anime. His screaming grates so much on my nerves that I want to gnaw my own ears off.
Same, that’s the first time I teared up watching One Piece and what got me to stick with it even though it’s going to be a while before I get through all the episodes.
Send In Buggy The Clown - Shanks is played by Peter Gadiot (Mxyzptlk in “Supergirl”, Cyrus in “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland”, & a few more) while in Roger’s execution young version was played by Matt Herrington - Benn Beckman is played by Laudo Liebenberg who also is Dooley (Black Sails), Zander (Project Dina), Rudy (Dam), Adrian (Die Byl), & many more - Lucky Roux is played by Ntlanhla Morgan Kutu, but after he kill that bandit I loved how the show included the others in the fight - Yasopp is played by Stevel Marc who also is Trig (Professionals), Booker (Theodore Roosevelt), Oba (uBettina Wethu), Jackson (Commandos), Maroon chief (Black Sails), & many more - Buggy (bounty 15,000,000 Berries / Yen = $ 103,242.85) is played by Jeff Ward who also is Deke Shaw (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Seth (Channel Zero), Wyatt (Rosewood), Matthew (The Mentalist), & many more - Cabaji is played by Sven Ruygork who is also Kermit (Theodore Roosevelt), Mr.Chetty (Eraser: Reborn), & many more. But as for his fellow crew mate Mohji seems more like a cameo & as of now the actor hasn’t been announced & his pet Richie is not in this version or maybe not yet but there is a reference to Richie on a poster that says missing Lion - Garp is played by Vincent Regan who also is Eudorus (Troy), Cepheus (Clash of the Titans), Atlan (Aquaman & the Lost Kingdom), & many more - Bogard is played by Armand Aucamp who also is Bernard (Warrior), Gigi (Six in the City), Lukas (Spoorloos) - Makino is played by Kathleen Stephens & at the end she is along with mayor Woop Slap - Higuma “the Bear” (bounty is 8,000,000 Berries / Yen = $ 55,042.40) is played by Tamer Burjaq who also is Mr.Ahmed (Skemerdans), Ramzis (Eraser: Reborn), Tahir (Trackers), Mombasa gunman (Bloodshoot), & many more - Mayor Boodle is played by Lindsay Reardon who also is Jefscut (The Adventures of Sinbad), Szigetti (Tropical Heat), Priest (Dam), & a few more - Here are some Easter eggs in this episode - Luffy outfit come form Ch.198 while the “Marvelous Noon” comes from Shanks’ shirt on Ch.28 color spread - Inside the safe you may have noticed that Morgan kept the Wanted Poster of Kuro - When Luffy says Buggy’s name is “Boogie” this is a reference to what going to be his original name but changed it due the antagonist in The Nightmare Before Christmas - When Buggy uses his Buggy Ball to knock Luffy out in releases a gas so I feel like this is a reference to The Joker which a lot of people makes that comparison with this version - The Sea King that took Shanks’ arm is called the Lord of the Coast which notice that the souls it makes sound like the T-Rex from Jurassic Park - At Partys Bar you can see various bottles labels that come from the series like Old Cactus Whiskey & Rum Clement - Right before Shanks says goodbye to Luffy next to him is a box that mentions Galley La Company - At the end of the flashback along wit Makino you can see the mayor Woop Slap & possibly see Gyoru the fishmonger & his wife Chicken - At the end we see a dog that most likely is Chouchou - The ending credits shows the addition to the map with every episode it adds new islands
I quite liked the first ep, the only thing that stuck to me a little was, it felt like they were kinda downplaying Luffy's strength? Like I am a huge zoro fan, but that captain morgan fight was mainly luffy vs morgan and then zoro ended him with luffy trusting him fully with his back, I wish they didn't change that, I feel like that kinda reduced the impact of their bonding.
I missed Ruffs Reactions to OP Stuff so much Since he is reading the Manga I am too afraid to follow him anymore because even Thumbnails would spoil me and he also warned people that this could happen on his channel So it is a great feeling to be able to see his excitement again. Boom is not caught up so I can still watch his Reactions Cant wait to see the reaction of your group to the next episodes if there are more coming.
I feel like we’ll be having the WORLD MAP of One Piece thru NAMI once Luffy became the King of the Pirates and the rest of the crew finally get their dreams. Because, in the story, there’s no world map yet. And Nami will be the first one to map out the world once they get to the final island. And thinking about it, it’s kinda fulfilling to see the world map of one piece after their final voyage or when their adventure ends. Just sharing my thoughts hihi.
The actor playing Cabaji is from the (Cirque du Soleil) , and I'm fairly sure he would have been able to fight on a unicycle, but I agree, the way they went for it was just fine. It flowed well into the story.
😂❤ So far, I've only watched the first 3 episodes and a 1/2. And I love it, it's amazing and I agree. Live action cover stories would be freaking awesome. And I really love how there's still nodding with references. At the things they removed to be like. Yeah, we didn't forget we just have to work with a episodes. This has to get a season 2 with more episodes than 8.🎉😢😂❤
I feel like this is manga accurate, 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 series. and number 3, Rurouni kenshin movie 1-5.
nahh I can def say this is worse than; the manga. The anime. Fucking 4Kid's censorship version-- Hell, NONE PIECE looks better in comparison story wise. Least I already know that's a chaotic mess
Since this will likely get a second season at this point I'm curious how they will handle creating Chopper. They will have to use CGI for Chopper and I think he will be the most expensive character to create cause he has around seven transformations when they originally meet him. At the current pace of the live action show if they expect to finish the Alabasta Arc by the end of season 2 I think they will need at least a12 episode season or more. Assuming season 2 episode 1 is Logue Town and entering the Grand Line, episode 2 would probably be meet Laboon and Vivi, episode 3 recruit Vivi and head for Drum Kingdom, episode 4 through 6 recruit Chopper and beat Wapol, and use the last 6 episodes to arrive at Alabasta and beat Crocodile.
Wait, you pointed out in the end credits a "Goat Island" on the maps. There was a filler arc in the anime with a goat island. It was in the grand line so geography wise it doesn't match up, but I do wonder if that's a deep cut reference. That would be wild if it was.
I really loved this series overall most the changes are for the better there's one or two emotional beats that don't hit as hard for me. But MY GOD is this man PERFECT as Buggy! Like Inaki is also perfect as Luffy... but HOLY SHIT Jeff Ward took this char early on to perfection! I'd love to see his run in Impel Down lol
That was always gonna be a key scene. I was like "Don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, YASS THEY DIDN'T FUCK IT UP!!!!"
@@quanganhvu6791 not only did they not fuck it up, but the scene is better than in the anime. The progression of him saying "of course I'll help you" normally to her instead of just yelling it like in the anime was perfect
Emily Rudd said that scene was what cemented her love for the story when she first experienced it, and why she adores Nami so much; it’s definitely a common opinion that although OP was always charming and wonderful, Arlong Park was the point at which the story ascended into something incredible.
I am very moved and happy to see positive comments from all of you 🥺 If you are happy with One Piece Live Action it makes my heart happy too because there are so many out there who really hate Live Action this one piece is a failed adaptation. I'm grateful that there are still people who appreciate Oda's work
I think that every new iteration of a show even if it's done by the same group and it's the same network showing it and there are characters from the previous show in this show and it's later on or before whatever it should all be seen as a parallel universe unless explicitly made obvious that they are one and the same universe within the adaptation itself.
The reason that no one has the full map is because of how the map changed due to certain events... Therefore no one has a full map to be able to work off of. No one has traveled the entire world. Plus the maps that some people make might not be perfect. That's part of the reason nami wants to make a map of the world.
This show is so amazing, it got me into starting the anime series, I'm working through season 1 of the original, but it's been great so far. Still don't understand why they scream while they talk all the time. That's a little weird and strange, but the show is good so far.
OMG YES, I already told my mom. She's not into manga or even anime but now she's 2 eps ahead of me in watching the live action. AND SHE"S LOVING IT!!! Also, I never thought there would ever be a day I would have to tell her not to spoil me anything about One Piece.
I agree that it was better than the other Netflix anime adaptations. And I would definitely love to see a second season. But it can never be better than the anime! The anime is on a completely different level! Live actions will never get there no matter how hard they try! The only things I didn't like were, 1. Arlong 2. Nami joined them on the walk to the Arlong Park 3. Don Crieg had so much less spotlight
I think the Buggy circus concept really works here. Buggy is forcing people to laugh and smile, which is in contrast to Luffy who is all about wanting people to have freedom, laugh, and smile
@davidmeister9697 well buggy arc is the lowest tier of all in anime and manga because its joke time but barattie and arlong arc is the rise of one piece in the 19s no lie btw
Tbh so far where I’m at these 2 are the peak ep of the season the others drag
This show how much he improved as Yonko when His men in Empty bluff island is laughing and following him out of their own free will
@@insatiablehunger2138i like episode 3 and 5 tho
@@insatiablehunger2138Usopp was never all that interesting even in the manga and Captain Kuro was carrying the whole episode 3 and 4 on his back in the live-action so I give episode 3 a 75% and episode 4 an 80%
Nami saying theres only one type of pirate followed by buggys appearance is hilariously poetic
That Buggy was top tier. The actor killed it. They did the CGI justice for the Chop Chop fruit.
My favorite small detail a Buggy still being goofy. Like he saw Luffy stretch for his hat and he still thought stretching him would be torture.
I mean when you pull rubber you can break it, so I don't think that was overly goofy. But Luffy saying, "Never!" and Buggy saying "Why not!?" and then hurting his hand on the glass among a few other moments gave him that goofy vibe. Early Buggy in OP was menacing too so I think they absolutely nailed it.
They do a pretty good job at acknowledging the more anime style things they had to cut, such as Richie and Luffy talking about flying into the Marine base by grabbing onto a giant bird
It's always been funny that in the beginning of the story Buggy can be seen more of an actual threat but as time goes on its becomes more apparent that he's more of a joke than a threat. Jeff Ward shows that 'threat' side well but as time moves you start to see that 'joke' side of his character, more in later episodes
Buggy is so good! Honestly the most engaging part of the entire season to me is that we are following Koby because it really is the newest material. Garp is also a standout to me. I love the way they did Luffy's backstory with Shanks and the Lord of the Coast. I am sad they didn't keep Shanks' "put your life on the line " quote tho. I always thought that was the most badass line. I love that each episode's title screen is a different Jolly Roger!
I was expecting Roux to pull up next to Shank shooting other dudes head off like in the anime..but I like what they did either way.

Since he is reading the Manga I am too afraid to follow him anymore because even Thumbnails would spoil me and he also warned people that this could happen on his channel
So it is a great feeling to be able to see his excitement again. Boom is not caught up so I can still watch his Reactions
Cant wait to see the reaction of your group to the next episodes if there are more coming.
I feel like we’ll be having the WORLD MAP of One Piece thru NAMI once Luffy became the King of the Pirates and the rest of the crew finally get their dreams. Because, in the story, there’s no world map yet. And Nami will be the first one to map out the world once they get to the final island. And thinking about it, it’s kinda fulfilling to see the world map of one piece after their final voyage or when their adventure ends. Just sharing my thoughts hihi.
The actor playing Cabaji is from the (Cirque du Soleil) , and I'm fairly sure he would have been able to fight on a unicycle, but I agree, the way they went for it was just fine. It flowed well into the story.
yassop was so fricken smooth and lucky rioux using his meat to beat up fools is just amazing
22:47
"Speaking of piracy"
That was just GOLD goodness me LMAOOOO
😂❤ So far, I've only watched the first 3 episodes and a 1/2. And I love it, it's amazing and I agree. Live action cover stories would be freaking awesome. And I really love how there's still nodding with references.
At the things they removed to be like. Yeah, we didn't forget we just have to work with a episodes.
This has to get a season 2 with more episodes than 8.🎉😢😂❤
Yes. They change the logo every episode. Have noticed that while watching until the 5th episode.
Garp tiny "oh for f*** sake" faces are killing me and might be my favorite part of the show so far
I feel like this is manga accurate, 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 series. and number 3, Rurouni kenshin movie 1-5.
nahh I can def say this is worse than; the manga.
The anime.
Fucking 4Kid's censorship version--
Hell, NONE PIECE looks better in comparison story wise. Least I already know that's a chaotic mess
But, The anime had 2 version, right? 4kids censorship, and the original.
Since this will likely get a second season at this point I'm curious how they will handle creating Chopper. They will have to use CGI for Chopper and I think he will be the most expensive character to create cause he has around seven transformations when they originally meet him. At the current pace of the live action show if they expect to finish the Alabasta Arc by the end of season 2 I think they will need at least a12 episode season or more. Assuming season 2 episode 1 is Logue Town and entering the Grand Line, episode 2 would probably be meet Laboon and Vivi, episode 3 recruit Vivi and head for Drum Kingdom, episode 4 through 6 recruit Chopper and beat Wapol, and use the last 6 episodes to arrive at Alabasta and beat Crocodile.
Been waiting for this video all day and it did not disappoint!
My friend loved the live action. He liked it so much he started watching the anime.
This title is criminal.
Wait, you pointed out in the end credits a "Goat Island" on the maps. There was a filler arc in the anime with a goat island. It was in the grand line so geography wise it doesn't match up, but I do wonder if that's a deep cut reference. That would be wild if it was.
Don't have a full map yet cause Nami hasn't finished it yet 😜
So glad you guys are loving this! I had a blast with this show.
Garp being Scottish keeps throwing me for a loop. I don't hate it, it just makes me chuckles every time. LOL
I LOVE your reactions bro!!! But wish your reaction vids were numbered. XD
Idk if you noticed but Buggy’s hand flipped Luffy off after he gassed and punched him. That was funny af
I really loved this series overall most the changes are for the better there's one or two emotional beats that don't hit as hard for me. But MY GOD is this man PERFECT as Buggy! Like Inaki is also perfect as Luffy... but HOLY SHIT Jeff Ward took this char early on to perfection! I'd love to see his run in Impel Down lol
Live action is good, but Brooo aint no way is better than anime
Deadass, they're just scumming for clicks lol. Can't hate the players though, you know it's already working.
well yeah , its just bait for views , not that I care.
It's definitely better
The pace being much better makes a lot for it‚ and the additions are almost all great. It's definitely on par‚ if not better than the anime
Bruh I can’t wait to see that moment with Luffy and Nami when she asks for help. THAT scene got me to cry lolol
That was always gonna be a key scene. I was like "Don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, don't fuck it up, YASS THEY DIDN'T FUCK IT UP!!!!"
@@quanganhvu6791 not only did they not fuck it up, but the scene is better than in the anime. The progression of him saying "of course I'll help you" normally to her instead of just yelling it like in the anime was perfect
@@yannickgervais240It was definitely executed better, but it wasn't quite as emotionally charged for some reason
@@Anonymous25012 surprise factor ig
Emily Rudd said that scene was what cemented her love for the story when she first experienced it, and why she adores Nami so much; it’s definitely a common opinion that although OP was always charming and wonderful, Arlong Park was the point at which the story ascended into something incredible.
2:29 The throat-what?!?😂
Luffy: spots some empty crates
Buggy: becomes Bernd das Brot
Glad I wasn't the only one who thought the piece of wood flying off the boat in the flashback was an arm lol
Buggy didn’t even say “flashily” even once.
they got the brand new snailpod guys ahahaha, i love it
I like how everyone (including me) is using subtitles for English adaptations
Title is obvious rage clickbait, I miss y’all’s old anime podcast. 😢
I can’t wait for how they do Law, The Surgeon of Death, with this more dark tone
Damn dude, when i saw the prisoners of Buggy that was so unsettling. They really made Buggy a menace
I binged the first 8 episodes in the original dub and it was good. Im rewatching ut now with the Japanese Dub and I like it even more
Watching it in the Japanese dub with the anime voice cast was the absolute best experience so many emotions hit me. They fucking killed it as always.
That hat scene is just wild knowing what we know now and the amt if time that has passed 😢
Okay you know the titles complete cap but it’s decent.
allright , , fine , , i'll say the damn thing : i was wrong , this adaptation is the curse breaking level
I am very moved and happy to see positive comments from all of you 🥺 If you are happy with One Piece Live Action it makes my heart happy too because there are so many out there who really hate Live Action this one piece is a failed adaptation. I'm grateful that there are still people who appreciate Oda's work
I think that every new iteration of a show even if it's done by the same group and it's the same network showing it and there are characters from the previous show in this show and it's later on or before whatever it should all be seen as a parallel universe unless explicitly made obvious that they are one and the same universe within the adaptation itself.
The reason that no one has the full map is because of how the map changed due to certain events...
Therefore no one has a full map to be able to work off of.
No one has traveled the entire world.
Plus the maps that some people make might not be perfect.
That's part of the reason nami wants to make a map of the world.
I just found out that OPLA have japanese dub ❤️❤️❤️
LMAO I can't believe the title of the video. These monetize-chasers are really willing to say anything in order to attract audiences.
No we just like to see people like you whine and it works every time lol
@@sortastupid lol, I picture you using hours of your time to archive such a pathetic goal.
👏👏👏👏
I wasn't expecting less from you
Damn I gotta catch up brb! 😂😂
Aight I’m back LFG!! 😂
Skipping out on the dog episode was a bit sad, but they really did justice to Buggy's power. And tiny Buggy was even more hilarious in live action!
Fun fact~ Oda never liked the fact that shanks and luffy scene fell of the boat, so they kinda did it in the La
Luffy hiding things inside himself like he's ACDC or Josuke
This video was a bit hard to find because it is not labeled as episode 2 😊
This show is so amazing, it got me into starting the anime series, I'm working through season 1 of the original, but it's been great so far. Still don't understand why they scream while they talk all the time. That's a little weird and strange, but the show is good so far.
They made a good call cutting out Ritchie, he would steal so much attention with a show introducing a handful of characters.
OMG YES, I already told my mom. She's not into manga or even anime but now she's 2 eps ahead of me in watching the live action. AND SHE"S LOVING IT!!!
Also, I never thought there would ever be a day I would have to tell her not to spoil me anything about One Piece.
I dragged my mom into watching this and she actually said she liked the anime more. Wild.
Ngl I do think Buggy does steal the show when he on
That title is such good clickbait
Nami has one of those SnailPods™
she got the iWano
9:42 You think the snail is creepy, wait till they giving them expression.
I still have a few gripes but honestly, it's not as bad as i thought it would be. I also like the way they did Buggy very nice.
I agree that it was better than the other Netflix anime adaptations. And I would definitely love to see a second season. But it can never be better than the anime! The anime is on a completely different level! Live actions will never get there no matter how hard they try! The only things I didn't like were,
1. Arlong
2. Nami joined them on the walk to the Arlong Park
3. Don Crieg had so much less spotlight
I’m surprised they didn’t have the mountain bandit(I forget his name) bragging about his bounty.
I want them to introduce the supernova early or just one of them passing by
21:00 They could’ve just used a real lion as a cameo.
Just imagine for a second saying "I am Monkey D Luffy and I will be the king of the pirates" damn he's so lucky the Inaki boy😍😍
It's already on dvd. Hint E of Bay put One Piece Live Action Series.
