The actor who plays Zoro has an actual background in martial arts, and was trained by his father who is famous Japanese actor, Sonny Chiba who you may also remember from Kill Bill vol.1 as the man who gave Uma Thurman the katana that she uses. Mackenyu who plays Zoro is also very popular in Japan, and has played in numerous films like Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, and many more

[@zuriyel5368]

That is perfectly ironic for this series considering Blackbeard in the official one piece manga is basically Luffy’s final boss. 😂

[@Phanthief95]

Also, Roger’s actor was also a lowly pirate in Pirates of the Caribbean too.

[@lonewolf9325]

The main character is played by Iñaki Godoy, now aged 20, while auditioning he was 17. And he made the Author Eiichiro Oda laugh with the audition. He was born to play this character which is actually so hard to do right in live action. All of his behind the scenes and him meeting the original voice actor and Oda are on KZbin, he is wholly charming.

[@danielefortini536]

It's way away from being perfect, but at least it's a good show, enjoyable especially for people who don't know anything about one piece. The thing is that right now is an average series, you can't understand why it's so loved by manga and anime fans, they have to improve the quality for the next seasons, because the first one is good but nothing special, and from the next season things will start to be wild for a live action. It can be improved, this series is promising, it's definitely a happy surprise for a lot of one piece fans, I need a season 2

[@billbillinger2117]

I was so pleasantly surprised by their attention to detail and their ability to stick to the source material as much as possible even with it being extremely condensed story wise.

[@C12K_Gaming]

The creator made Netflix producers sign a creative contract clause. He was highly involved with the script and character representation on screen. Which is awesome, glad he did that.

[@littlerainy3453]

If I recall correctly Luffy wore shoes because something with Netflix's safety policy didn't allow the actor to wear sandals....or so I've heard.

[@NRG-REC]

That exactly it. Those stunts in sandals would snap your shit like two twigs.

[@sombrashadow0013]

I feel like this is a great show for both people who don't know anything about One Piece and those who do. There are particular scenes that, with context, mean so much more, but even if you don't have the context, it still works. They strike a very good balance with that.

[@nekfard]

They really made a successful live action of arguably the most difficult anime to translate in real life because the anime/manga is super GOOFY. I really enjoyed watching the first season, hoping for a second season and more improvements on production. The one piece is real!

[@Kanriel]

Yeah, it really cannot be emphasized enough how magical this adaptation is because One Piece is EXTREMELY goofy. It's not just Helmeppo that has huge mouth agape faces and the sort, it's everyone. I for sure did not think it was possible to make an adaptation that worked but I finished the whole season and...it works, it actually works.

[@vionafernandes4619]

I was so hesitant at first because Luffy is just so goofy and lively and I watch the sub version. I thought it will be cringe but I'm quite impressed with the live action. Especially Zoro. They nailed him, and the santoryu🔥🔥 perfect

[@bodbyss]

I am so incredibly excited that One Piece is available in a new format for people who wouldn't otherwise consume anime or manga. And that it's actually really good and fun! I really doubted this could work, but it does. And now so many people will get to enjoy this awesome, cute series.

[@Limonelguey]

Netflix pretty much covered episodes 1-65 of the anime in one season.

[@MishaHusnainAli]

This episode (no spoilers) condenses and mixes up a few first meet stories. The Koby and Luffy part is over about three episodes and some things change and some are not gone into for the condensed runtime, but basically Koby deciding to do what he wants is decently addressed here. Glad you enjoyed and I love how they make the world design really lived in but also really colorful and fun!

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

i had never heard of this anime before. so yesterday i watched it on netflix and i binged the whole thing. it was AMSOME. such fun show.

When the creator of the manga saw the first ep, he told the show runner, “It’s good, the only problem is that Luffy isn’t wearing sandals.” Unfortunately, sandals are banned by part of Netflix’s standard on-set safety rules.

[@swordhunter12]

Realistically, the kind of stunts Luffy was doing in this show, I think peoples' feet would have gotten shredded.

[@bodbyss]

@@swordhunter12 Yeah he'd break so many sandals and really, that might have resulted in Inaki hurting himself too. Pulling something, maybe breaking something. I'm totally ok with the shoes, it's such a great compromise

[@UnnLykley]

The best part was that he had real footware for once. Always annoyed me he had thongs on

[@sanictheedgehog]

Figured it had to be due to some safety reasons. They gave him and Shanks big goofy looking bowling shoes with straps vaguely similar to their sandals. Honestly not a big deal though, Kind of like the goofy bowling shoes.

[@Iwillone]

Took me while to even notice that he wasn’t wearing sandals.

[@NealMarchuk]

As someone who has watched the "One Piece" anime on Japanese TV from the very beginning, I'm thrilled to see how much you two enjoyed this opening episode. I think it stays very true to the spirit of the original, and does a great job of capturing the world, the characters and their fighting styles in live action. To respond to some of your remarks: You're right about Koby's arc being a bit condensed, but not by much. Even in the anime, he doesn't stick with Luffy for long after Captain Morgan is defeated, although that parting is somewhat more involved than what we saw here. Unfortunately, to fit in as much story as they're planning to in just 8 episodes, a fair bit of condensing will be necessary. In the original, Captain Morgan's son Helmeppo was very much as depicted here: a self-important dandy shamelessly riding on this daddy's coattails. And yes, Aiden Scott did his laugh to perfection. In this world, Marines are simply what the world-wide navy is called. They're pretty much the only public branch of the military that exists -- since the world is almost entirely ocean, a land-based force wouldn't make much sense. And the bearded man with the scar is named Garp. He's one of the higher ranking officers in the Marines, but he's not at the absolute top. Achara was right about Alvida's ship: It accidentally caught fire when Alvida smashed a lantern while aiming at Luffy. That's probably the main reason why Luffy opted for one of the lifeboats instead -- the ship was burning and its helm was wrecked. Also, I imagine he realized he couldn't run such a large vessel on his own, or even with Koby, and he likely didn't trust the rest of Alvida's crew. Luffy's optimism and charisma are huge factors in the story going forward, so be prepared to see more of that. As for his acting like a cartoon character -- you have no idea how apt that statement is. Enjoy the next one!

[@JustZy]

I just love when people laugh when luffy is on screen. It just makes me tear up with JOY 😭😂

[@assasinarcade]

Joyboy.... HAS RETURNED!!

[@sreeram242]

Achara said "We have smile the entire time while watching". Welcome to one piece world that is what one piece and Luffy is all about the one who brings joy to every person. This manga is so popular not bcs of its fights and all. One piece has one of the best world building in all of the fiction

[@RoRZoro]

27:26 It was 3 episodes of anime (But this is one hour while anime episode is around 25 minutes). Live action skipped some incidents and merged many. For example, here Nami joins the crew in the Marine HQ. In the anime, they never meet here. She just stole the map and leave. It took a lot of effort from Luffy to make her join later. Also, Koby had a bigger role in the anime episodes and Lufy helps Koby to join the Navy. So a lot of smaller events like that are merged probably might be to speed up the episodes.

One Piece as a story is one of the greatest pieces of fiction ever written. Every single question that you have right now will be answered in the future arcs (of the anime or manga). For example if something is mentioned in episode 200 will be fully explained 500 episodes later. The scale of world-building that Oda did is incredible.

[@_previously]

After putting it off for so long, I started watching anime after the first few live action trailers were dropped earlier this year. I’m about 230 episodes in, just starting the water seven arc, and even though there are some things about the anime that I don’t like, I get the hype, and it is a really good anime. I’m not going to say whether I think the manga, anime, or the live action is “better”, especially since I don’t have the history and nostalgia other one piece fans have for the show. However, this is the best live action adaptation of an anime I’ve seen ever. The first season covers probably the first 60 to 70 episodes of the series and I think that Netflix did a pretty great job at condensing so much story in such a fun and digestible way. I’m also really enjoying some of the creative changes that Netflix’s production made to the plot and some of the character relationships, specifically the relationship between Luffy and Koby. Probably my favorite change of the series tbh. I’m glad that you guys like it and I’m really hoping that season two come sooner than later!

Watching you guys reaction to this makes me remember my first time watching One Piece, I was sucked in by the character and the world too. This adaptation is faithful and they nail the cast, who said you need big actors to sell a show, just cast someone perfect for the role.

[@adi6898]

Man said about Zoro "So far luffy chose the worst partner" ☠️😭...........Jaby is gonna get humbled real badly for this 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

[@SanjayRai-wy5lp]

Omg it is soo good to see you guys watching one piece ❤

[@hypsterfall2829]

yees yes yes yeeees i was hoping you guys did react to my fav series . All I can say is THIS DOES CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF THE ANIME ❤

[@skyelunaco_]

There's a fan project called "One Pace" that re-edits the anime series to bring it closer in line to the manga and removes all the filler. Removes a bit over 50% of the total time. Although there will be some changes regardless, I've read the show is an adaptation of the manga and not the anime.

[@wpelfeta]

The episode covered the first 7 chapters (4 episodes in the anime), but it also took a few scenes from later chapters and moved them up to bring Nami into the crew earlier. And you're right, in the manga, Koby did play a much larger role and got a lot of character development, which was off screened here. There were a lot of scenes that were cut, but they got most of the important scenes. A lot of scenes were changed to be slightly more realistic and take less time. A lot of scenes were actually multiple scenes from the manga combined together. And most of the Nami scenes are original, since she wasn't a big part of the story at this point in the manga. It's pretty impressive how much information they were able to condense into one episode. They also changed the plot slightly to give the episodes better continuity through all the cut content, but I felt the changes were well thought out and made sense. The characters are definitely faithful to their manga counterparts in spirit. I think this show has been really good at knowing when to change things and when to stay faithful.

Jaby's t-shirt literally has the answer to where the third sword goes

[@rafaelcalmon2858]

As a LONG time One Piece fan (almost 20 years and counting) I am delighted with how they did it 😁👍 A lot cut and changed like it has to be, but the heart is there and it's as faithful as they could make it, which is all I really needed. *I'm loving it so far, and if this live action entices anyone who hasn't watched or read One Piece yet, know that the original is also amazing and, for me, one of the greatest stories ever told.* One Piece is genuinely one of the things I love the most and I love seeing people enjoy it, hence why I watch so many reactions to it 😍

[@abtuseplays]

I actually didnt expect you guys would see this! Excited for your reaction. You would love the anime

[@MalMalWasTaken]

Always happy seeing people that never watched One Piece see this. As a lifelong fan of One Piece, this live adaptation is amazing. 👏👏

[@liamgloryosyoung3601]

Came here from the pitch meetings, have been enjoing a good deal of your content, but watching both the live action as well as the anime and/or manga read along for me would 100% be something I'd join Patreon for. I would absolutely love to follow you on the journey of OP.

[@dyoralexan9351]

This is great live action imo. Although there are differences here and there but it still can deliver the story pretty well and engaging

[@ayankumar6156]

I am so happy you decided to do this😭😭😭😭😭😭 been watching you guys for a long time and a huge fan of one piece, seeing this reaction is so amazing for me

[@amruthmj]

Adaptation is better than other Adaptations...... I am looking forward for full crew cast. Robin and Franky, brooks. I am huge fan of One piece, the set looks very good

[@dlynazmi]

Great! Now both brothers are watching and as a hardcore One Piece fan, I can't thank you enough for doing this!

[@Mugiwara_Sanjii]

Hell yeah, Actually you guys are the main target audience. If this show makes you want to watch anime or manga then do it, It will be a journey of a life time

[@gorevarix4036]

the window scene, Luffys made of Rubber and absorbed the impact for Nami.

[@Bigsteelguy4]

It's my first time watching OnePiece as well, and i'm actually enjoying it. I just started the animated series and it's not all bad. But i will be watching the live action version a bit more.

[@pipeporo7316]

i heard one piece EVERYWHERE but never wanted to read its manga or watch the anime. main reason was the episodes reached 1000+ and it quite a lot to sit and catching up. luckily there’s live action and ‘hmm why not’ and as first timer, i enjoyed every single episodes. now i wanna watch the whole anime, i’m in love already 😂

[@Skammas91]

The reason why I think it worked so well, it's because the anime it's bizarre and goofy most of the time, the world is very crazy and creative... SO you kinda accept the live action to have these "goofy" things and moments. Imagine translating Attack on Titan: is SUPER serious. If you have one wrong non-realistic thing the fans gonna get pissed. Not with One Piece =) I'm loving it. They did a great job!

[@poransuki8203]

I'm soooo happy you guys watch this! Also I noticed how the fox on Jaby's shirt also holds a sword in his mouth.

[@dribblesification]

Dang awesome series! This will be big, bigger than wednesday, and at par with strangers things

[@Ozai75]

Per Luffy and Nami falling out the window. Luffy is essentially rubber, so of course he's going to cushion Nami and falling like that does nothing to him.

[@afiqjiwa_14]

I love your reactions! Glad that you enjoyed it!

[@mehdi_allaf334]

THE ONE PIECE IS REAL!!!!! 🎉

[@vinaykumar-ww9tt]

jaby wearing that t-shirt and still wondering where that 3rd sword goes.

[@ashashimation9452]

All the Japanese voices are done by the original anime voice actors.
