Is Loguetown covered in S1?
It isn't, so that could be ep 1 for S2. It'll be a better season opener than Laboon, too.

The casting is so perfect even for people with small roles that it brings up my biggest problem. Some characters are wasted as they are reduced to bit parts. Especially since they get the costume and make up treatment to look as much like the characters as possible. The biggest offender is Don Krieg.

It doesn't ruin the show and it only bothers me because I read the manga and watched the anime. People who just watch the TV show won't even care.

Just watched the first episode, man they really sped through the Alvida part, but the rest of the episode tied out fairly well. I think they messed up on two parts and both involve Coby like in the manga his big moment was to stand up to Alvida and the other part where Luffy acted like a bad guy so Coby can join the Navy. Of course, this is only the first episode so I'll see if they do anything else with the guy, but the Buggy introduction was honestly pretty sick. Props to the costume designer for all the characters as well, they somehow made their outfits true to the source material without feeling like a cosplay, except for Nami's hair. Zorro's hair, somehow, looks fairly natural.

I think that Zoros character is played too cool. Zoro imo isnt a cool guy. Hes a lughead. A real dummy.

Seriously? Ive only seen parts from the trailer that look like the end of Loguetown. How do they not end the season going into the Grand Line!? Thats certainly.. a choice

So I've only watched a couple episodes of the anime but I have a question: Exactly what does Luffy think pirates do? Because he doesn't really seem like the type to raid merchant ships and steal their cargo, enslave folks, etc.

In One Piece, people tend to be labeled pirates if they sail around without clearance from the World Government. But mostly the Strawhats are wanted because they assault Marine bases that that are usually exploiting the locals, and generally just undermine the World Governments authority by being around.

To be fair, the Strawhats did try to pillage a country once overnight, but it was after liberating them from a tyrant, and if they had waited until the morning they wouldve been gifted way more gold than they ended up stealing.

Really pleased overall.

Though I'm really sad that they cut Luffy tricking Arlong into eating his own crewmate and Arlong beating Zoro and shitting bricks after seeing his horrible wounds realizing how he did so much damage to his crew while half dead though.

Those were actually in the first one piece chapters I ever read so I really wanted to see those moments.

Nobody here is complaining about how the tone of the show is too pg/pg-13? I get that it's on Netflix, and they're trying to appeal to many demographics, but I felt underwhelmed by the lack of blood and melancholic undertones. I felt like the anime expressed that to a satisfying degree.

It's One Piece, bro, PG-13 is about as much as you're gonna get out of it. Live Action violence is different from anime violence in general, too.

I can't believe Netflix screwed up two easy adaptations (Death Note and Cowboy Bebop) yet somehow didn't screw this up.

Having the creator of One Piece on board as an executive producer probably made a big difference. They only consulted with Cowboy Bebop's creator instead of giving him an actual creative role in it's production, which might explain why they flubbed it as hard as they did.

Don't know how much involvement Death's Note creator had with the Netflix show, but I'd assume they only consulted with them as well.

What? In what world is this PG? There is a fair amount of cursing, Zoro straight up kills a ton of people including one dude who is cut in half.

Like 10 mins in Alvida brains someone and Koby has to mop up the gorey mess.

All the tragic backstories are still present. The marines are corrupt. Pirates commit atrocitites all over.

...What? It's more violent than the anime. Alvida brains a dude and Zoro cuts somebody in half in the very first episode, and it straight up shows you the brains on the deck and the dude's innards as his body separates. I can't tell if you just zoned out while watching it, or are intentionally trolling.

Not to mention the missing leg scene with the gory mess left behind. Eurgh. The LA is 100% way more brutal than the original source with the brutality and finally death, something Oda has sucked at.

Are you watching the same show? Episode one is already gorier than the entire anime.

I like how the live action had Ussop straight up kill Chu, in the manga and anime Ussop's attack didn't kill him and he started getting up Ussop freaked out and beat him with his hammer while shouting "Ussop Hammer!" over and over again until the fishman eventually passed out, as a result this is the first time Ussop killed someone, his actual first time committing murder comes much later and he doesn't even care or hesistate to do it nor is it treated as a big moment another thing is the live action made it look like Luffy couldn't beat Arlong in a straight up fight when in reality his finisher was a huge fuck you to Arlong and how weak he is compared to Luffy

4 episodes in, this show is amazing. You can tell everyone making the show just loves the manga/anime, I feel like they have done a really good job pacing out the arcs too. Doesnt feel slow at all when Luffy has a new villain to fight every 2 episodes. Even my wife who has never watched any anime anything is really liking it. I think we might have a big hit on our hands.

Lol, of course it is years away. There are still 2 strikes going on.

Filming started on season 1 January 2022 and finished in August of that year, then it took a year to get that ready for airing. So a year and a half if they had a script ready to go, but they dont.

Finished the season, and you know what I liked it. I liked it a lot. I could complain about the changes to the story, the removed characters, the reduced roles for many, but it doesn't really matter. What matters is that I had a huge smile on my face for most of the show.

The show nailed the world, it nailed the characters, it nailed the tone.

Now we have the waiting game. Now we have to hope Netflix renews this show for a second season. If things were stable right now I and sure it would already be renewed, but things are not stable.

If they can't even do a short saga all the way through there's no way they can do anything else.

started watching it today. only have one episode left.

and from what i've seen so far, it's definitely better than i expected! sure they changed a lot of stuff but the spirit and core of the series is still there!

loving the cast btw, specially the Straw Hat Crew, Zef (even tho he sounds like Gordon Ramsay at times), Garp and Mihawk.

Arlong still looks puny as hell compared to the manga/anime version tho... lol

so yeah, while it's something that most folks didn't ask for, personally, i don't mind it at all! and i certainly wouldn't mind if Netflix followed through with more seasons of it! >_>

I think if they had made it 10 episodes they would have covered all that but they wanted to finish with the big fight with Arlong.

They can definitely cover Alabasta in the same amount of time since it's only about 20 more chapters than east blue, the problem is they now have to add Logue town and Reverse mountain in season 2. The pacing is already fast, this is just going to make it faster.
