For anyone that wants to switch over to the anime now, I suggest: https://onepace.net/
It’s a fan edit where they strip the filler, and try to make it more like the manga.
I doubt that emily rudd and Godoy are going to make 1,000 episodes. There’s no way they could do that, and still look the same by the end of it, they would age and look older
Fans of the OPLA getting into the anime realizing they have 1000+ episodes to watch to catch up (this will take years)
Itll be cancelled like cowboy beebop
Nah it’s actually decent.
Then again I didn’t get the cowboy bebop hate either. It was okay? Like not OMFG THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW OF ALL TIME, but it wasn’t as shit as people claim it was. I fairly enjoyed the show, even after rewatching the anime right before.
One Piece actually captures the flow and the mood of the anime. It is over the top, like the anime, but realistically toned down so it doesn’t seem like it’s trying too hard. The pace is good and the changes to the story seem coherent to adapting as an live action and for people who have heard of One Piece but never really got into it. The dialogues aren’t literate master pieces but they really do not need to be. The special effects sometimes look a bit weird but they didn’t bother me too much.
Based on my research, the first season of the Netflix live action show (8 episodes) covers the first 61 anime episodes. At this rate, the live action show could still continue for 17 more seasons.
In all seriousness, the more I think about it, the more perfect this anime was for adaptation. There’s a ton of filler in the anime, but otherwise good story beats and character development. When you condense that down, you get all the good and leave out the cruft.
I watched all of the live action show this weekend, and really enjoyed it. I figured the anime tone and goofiness that they clearly baked right into it would work against it like all the other live action anime adaptations, but it feels like it’s a lot less of a quick cash grab than the others. Some real love and attention went into it and it’s a lot of fun.

Let’s hope they’ll keep Little Buggy’s Great Adventure. That filler was hilarious.
Buggy got his body back already so I don’t think we’ll be getting that :(
