ONE PIECE EPISODE 8 REACTION - WE WILL MISS THIS! - First Time Watching Netflix Live Action 1x8

Welcome to our first-time reaction to the eighth episode of the One Piece live action adaptation that just released on Netflix! This is the grand finale for season one!
Today we watch the eighth episode of the live action adaptation of One Piece. This is it! The finale! What an amazing way to end the season. We get an incredible Arlong vs Luffy fight scene. Usopp gets to go toe to toe and outwit one of Arlong's goons. And the incredible duo Zoro and Sanji beat the hell out of a group of Arlong's crew in the most stylish way ever. All in the name of getting payback for Nami and helping out the people that reside in Conomi Islands.
This has been an incredible season filled with amazing storytelling, great cinematography, awesome score and color grading that is emotionally connected to what the characters are experiencing. Everything about this yells "We know how to tell a good story"
We're all in for this pirate adventure that is ahead of us! So join us as we set our sails and head into the final episode of season one 1x8 of this highly-anticipated adaptation of one of the greatest anime and manga series ever created.
If you are a fan of the anime feel free to add context and let us know if we missed anything. Having experienced the Grand Line before we'd love to hear from the veteran pirates themselves!
We hope you enjoy our reactions and commentary as we delve into this world for the first time, talk about the cinematography and different aspects of filmmaking that makes the show different and how this seventh episode made an impact as first time viewers.

[@bearwiz44]

are you going to react to the anime?

[@vincesaligue5963]

arlong’s power is kinda like level 20 while Garp is already level 500+. His grandpa is one of the most OP characters in One Piece. Considering Garp is always a rival of Roger.

[@Richard-du2mk]

Start the anime if you don’t want to wait for season 2, the feels are deeper.

[@nevaladder]

You don't have to wait. That's the benefit of a long-running IP. :) Also, while very good, the live action is not a substitute to the actual manga/anime. It only covers the barebones of the story.

[@samir.p240]

one of the few real reactions in this scene 🎉

[@stalhein62]

People new to the series "Garp is not taking it easy on him any more" People caught up to the series "This is the least effort Garp could physically put in"

[@story_rook1581]

😂😂 It's true. But the path to discovery is a super fun one..

[@markfoshee4768]

I don't know he could've tied one of his arms behind his back 😂

[@RifqiMainGitar]

Fun fact: in a recent interview Steven Maeda (the showrunner) said that in the cast off ceremony scene it was the editor's idea to show the strawhat crew as kids lip syncing their adult counterparts speaking their dreams and it wasn't even on the script. It's such a brilliant touch in my opinion.

[@damnhated16]

One of the best scenes❤

[@BlankSama]

ohh really, thats cool

[@ZevsMika]

It makes sense. I think if it wasn't they would have figured out a way to have little Usopp and little Nami say their dreams

[@mechabeach]

The most beautiful scene in the show, I’m sure even Oda was so happy to see that on screen.

[@YzaekPark]

Fkin totally agree!!! Was awesome!

[@The-Rguy]

As a chef, Sanji believes his hands have no place in a fight, only for cooking and ladies. It's why Tazz Skyler became a black belt in Capoeira and Kickboxing to truly embody Sanji's fighting style, which he learned from Zeff, called Red Leg style, but Sanji calls his Black Leg style to make it his own

[@laupao2595]

Sanji doesn't want his precious hands get dirty 😅

That is truly awesome. The level of commitment the actors demonstrated is outstanding!

[@Rommulo35628]

I can't remember if it's ever said in the live action, but the reason Sanji only fights with his legs is that as a Cook he can't risk having his hands damaged in battle.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

I don't think we caught that if it was mentioned, fairly certain they didn't! But that makes so much sense, thank you so much for elaborating on that for us!!

[@aruhik]

​@@OfficialMediaKnightsactually it was more like "Hands are only for cooking, you don't cook using blood stained hands". Also sanji's personal philosophy:- Hands are only for cooking and wooing ladies. The anime Sanji is crazy about women and not just a flirt as shown in live action

[@bluelight17]

​@@OfficialMediaKnights yeah, they didn't mention it in the LA! He learned it from Zeff who always scolded him when he found out he fought with his hands as a kid. In the manga, at the end of the Baratie arc, Zeff and the kitchen staff acted as if Sanji's food sucked and threw it on the floor, to give him the final push to leave, and when Sanji got pissed Zeff punched him. That shocked everyone cause he never used his hands to beat Sanji but "only" kicked him (yeah, being raised and trained by a pirate is something else😅).

[@kouji0031]

@@bluelight17yeah they changed alot on baratie. Honestly as good as it was i really feel disappointed that they didnt show much the importance of sanji and zeff feeding the hungry no matter what especially how the flashback showed the hunger they experience. Its like one of the best part of both them is they will feed anyone hungry even if they are the bad guys. Sanji has the kindest heart and in the show some werent emphasized especially one of there major trait.

[@bluelight17]

@@kouji0031 yeah, the Baratie eps were good but we lost a LOT of Sanji's characterization. In the manga him feeding Gin and Don Krieg despite knowing how dangerous they were hit so much harder than Sanji feeding a poor starving man in the LA. Gin, someone described as a devil, was going to sacrifice himself for him after it. They didn't even mention that Zeff opened Baratie so that people would find food even in the middle of the sea, Sanji was ready to die for the restaurant cause it was Zeff's dream after what they went through.

[@allpissedup229]

To answer your question about Mihawk and Shanks without spoiling anything: Yes, Shanks could go toe-to-toe with him. It's implied they used to duel for fun back in the day.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

We would love to see that! Truly can't wait to see the extent of how much power these characters have!

[@DeathFORcameO]

I think what you meant to say is that Mihawk can go toe-to-toe with Shanks.

[@syra2323]

Im sayin dude, people forget that this show opened with Garp executing the actual KING OF THE PIRATES. and he throws a cannonball with his bare hands at Luffy earlier in the series too. manz a beast.

[@JPRequiem]

Hearing the mix of the live action theme and the original opening from 1999 during the barrel scene had me crying

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

I knew that was a node to the original score! We hadn't heard those melodies before and it sounded just like an anime soundtrack. It is awesome they added that!

[@KevinGonzalez-hs7so]

Me too. I live all the new fans. But watching the LA as a One Piece Anime watcher is on another level. I cried so much.

[@lastsunofkrypton7950]

Listen carefully to the upbeat bar music that was playing in the Luffy flashback where Shanks was stitching Luffy’s cheek injury. Some of us older OP fans got a bit teary eyed just hearing that.

[@banzinarbanzinar5012]

[@parthachem83]

Trivia: Capt Nezumi (Nezumi = rat in Japanese). That's why his getup is like a rat and he basically is a dirty rat. Literally and symbolically. Oda put many names by being inspired of old folklore, old legends (several famous pirate names, etc) or used the names to describe to personalities. It is always a great touch

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Oda is a genius man! His creativity is through the roof. So glad he shared his talent with all of us!

[@thetimsalaproject]

@@OfficialMediaKnights one of the main reasons this show is a success is because Oda sensei is heavily involved. The production wouldn't go through with it without his approval they even have to reshoot some scene because he wasn't satisfied.

[@vincesaligue5963]

@@ncknelson well technically I didn’t spoil u cause it was shown in the 1st ep just as u said. Hehehe. Marines have a lot of powerful characters but that still has to be shown in the next seasons. Garp is just too OP. He and Roger are within top 5 most powerful characs in this verse. 😊

When Garp said 'You're on your own now', it meant he might not be able to protect Luffy once he enters the Grandline. And now that he has his bounty and even if Garp is a vice-admiral, Garp can not take his grandson's side. Luffy is still a criminal in front of the Marines. Despite having opposite beliefs, there is no doubt that Garp loves his grandson/s. A tough kind of love.

I'm new to One Piece and just adored this series! So many heartfelt and wonderful messages: The importance of friendship and family, standing up for what is right no matter the consequence, knowing who you are and not being afraid to express it and the joy/trials of following your dreams. I loved Luffy's positive attitude and unwavering optimism, indomitable spirit and caring heart. He's a badass both inside and out!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Definitely agree! This show was such an incredible journey and it had everything we were looking for in a story. Not only were the characters so likable, the action was great and man...the emotional moments in this creeped up on us and hit us full force!

[@rockCity777]

If you want to experience the full story, I would personally recommend "reading" it over "watching". The anime has some really strong parts to it, but as it goes on it runs into some problems with pacing and production-quality. The manga is the most consistent, high-quality experience, which is not surprising considering it's the author's direct work. A fan-made recolour of the manga is potentially even better. I also don't see the point of intentionally depriving yourself of the story, if you did enjoy it. The point of One Piece is that it is a blast to read/experience.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

We're definitely getting the East Blue saga but will stop there! We wanna be surprised by what the future holds for these characters 😀

[@rockCity777]

@@OfficialMediaKnights East Blue is, essentially the "Prologue" of One Piece's narrative. In a lot of ways, it was the easiest part of the story to translate to LA, because it is in some ways the "simplest". With that framing, you can imagine why people have such high expectations for Season 2.

[@ShaynneDiaries]

[@coco-sh2ny]

I feel so bad for nami. If she didn't met Luffy and the crew, she’ll be forever arlong's slave. Arlong would never let her go because of her talent. In the manga, arlong said Nami is a genius and she can make the most accurate maps that no one can do, especially at her young age. So I agree that Arlong is nothing without nami. A great cartographer and the best navigator. I'm glad you guys are enjoying it. The barrel scene feels so emotional, the nostalgia.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Absolutely agreed, she could have been stuck with Arlong for far longer! It's so amazing what the right friendships can do for us - how the Strawhat crew elevated each other vs Arlong's crew enabling his totalitarian behavior... what a stark difference!

They’re like exactly the characters straight out from the manga. Oda, the creator and writer of One Piece, picked them himself! Oda’s very involved with the live action production.

The best part it, this is just the tips of an iceberg. Before starting reading One Piece I almost laugh at the fan for telling me One Piece world building rival the great such as Tolkien, Frank Hebert, Georg RR Martin.

One Piece is a TITANIC encyclopedia fill with geopolitics, culture, tradition, crazy set building, people with different ideology, faction, power and motivation. I am really grateful that you all give the series a chance, because when season 2 come out is where the fun truly started. Everyone, no matter who they are, should try One Piece as some point in there life, no matter life action or anime/manga. This series save me a lot during depress time, bringing JOY and FREEDOM that you can only get from a fictional world.

Trivia: The new tattoo Nami got in place of Arlong's mark is a pinwheel and a tangerine which represent the dear memory of her late foster mother (the tangerine skin pinwheel in the series). Nami's backstory is watered down quite a bit comparing to the source material though. Actually, every villagers know what Nami has been doing from the start but they turned blind eyes so that Nami can get away without guilt if she can't bare the burden anymore. Nojiko even got her tattoo so that Nami doesn't feel so bad about Arlong's mark.

This is such a huge compliment, thank you so so much!! Your support means the world to us, and hopefully we see each other again for Season 2, if not sooner 😊

[@DeathFORcameO]

The only criticism I had with OPLA is that they didn't explained or at least hinted about the power system in one piece world early, so that non anime watchers will have no confusion between devil fruit users and just Haki users. Just like with Mihawk, Shanks and Garp, they didn't ate a devil fruit but among the most op characters in the story.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Mm that makes sense, we were confused on the power structures because with characters like Garp, we assumed their powers were maybe supernatural, but turns out not every superpower is attained by the Devil Fruit. Hopefully they delve more into this in the next season!

[@kevinkijowski5980]

@@OfficialMediaKnights If somebody ate a devil fruit they will usually announce it. Like buggy explicitly saying "I ate the chop chop fruit". Devil fruit users will also have powers that are completely unique to them. Luffy's entire body having the properties of rubber is a power unique to him because he ate a fruit for example.

[@MikeHesk742]

To be fair, the manga and anime dont explain those points either. I remember assuming Kuro had eaten a devil fruit to explain his speed, but One Piece just assumes standard anime logic of "this person trained really hard and now they can punch a hole in the moon".

[@royalfun1031]

As a fan of One Piece I watched a couple of reactions to this Live Action and I found you guys to be the most sincere and entertaining ones! Also your cutting and overall production is very good. I really had a blast watching this with you two, so thanks for your work! :) and praise GODA that Season 2 was already announced XD

[@wacky1456]

So this is it crew see you in the grand line and sanji only use his hands for cooking and he values food more than anything in his life sanji can't stand if someone wastes food. In s2 we will see a completely different world from east blue, rookies entering grand line to fulfill their dreams that's not gonna be easy. Also, our crew isn't complete yet we need few more members on our ship ;) and if you notice in first episode luffy started alone in barrel and at the end all 5 of them are together on a barrel performing a ceremony (foreshadowing) it's a complete circle and that's the beauty of one piece :)

[@tonypee3465]

@@OfficialMediaKnights just a HeadsUp, if someday you decided to watch the anime, just skip the filler episodes (stories that not in the manga, it's made so the original source can catch-up with the anime airs schedule). 1000+ episodes can quite intimidating, but if you skip the fillers (you can search it on google), maybe it can ease the experience quite a bit. Peace.

@@OfficialMediaKnightsI think it’d be amazing to see your guys reactions to the anime and comparisons to the live action. Anime is definitely worth it this was nothing compared to later arcs

[@SummuSLeO1]

I really enjoyed your reactions a lot. Even though there are so many reaction channels on youtube, sometimes it's hard to find people that you vibe with. Also, One Piece only gets better and better. The stories(Arcs) only get more intricate, the world keeps expanding and the characters(new and old) are always so layered and interesting. Season 2 is gonna be insane and i'm really excited for you guys to experience it for the first time.

[@Guandilicious]

Oda did a fantastic job of creating characters that are real. They all have a history, they all encounter hardships, struggles, and sometimes they have to ask for help. Not every fight is one they'll win. They all suffer losses and setbacks. The world that has been created is HUGE, and the writing is done where we feel for our incredibly relatable heroes and side characters. Even if the characters remain for a small arc of story telling, we remember them. In the manga before every chapter there would be 1 page depicting something happening with someone else. Sometimes it would be a funny scene, like Garp eating a bag of cookies while getting yelled at by his boss, or Buggy on an adventure as "Tiny Buggy" to show that even though they aren't being shown in the story, they're still there, doing their own thing, living their lives and dealing with their own problems (usually caused by the Straw Hats)

[@nevishiii]

Thanks a lot for enjoying One Piece , eagerly looking forward to season 2 and your reactions to that as well!! ❤️

[@milo.t_]

if you're interest in the source material, i suggest that you should buy and read just the first 12 books. (not sure if the US version have them in sets. in many asian countries, they have saga sets, like this one is the "East Blue Saga"). i don't recomment watching the anime because the pace in the anime is super slow and they have to add extra eps so that it won't overtake/catch up with the manga too fast. you can just read the east blue saga and leave it there, watch OPLA season 2, and then buy the next saga which is Arabasta Saga. this way, you'll get to enjoy the Live Action to the fullest while also understand the source material more. Also won't take as much of your time as watching the anime.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

I think that is honestly what we'll do. We won't go any further until the next season of the LA comes out!

[@milo.t_]

@@OfficialMediaKnights i checked the book. East Blue saga actually end at chapter 100 which is the first chapter of vol.12, the rest of the book is pretty much spoiler. so guess it's better to get just vol1-11 if you're avoiding spoiler. also, you'll notice all the little things in the LA ss1 way more after read the manga. one funniest thing they didn't say in the LA is that Zoro is so damn bad with directions, he can't find a way to get out of east blue to go find Mihawk and he also have zero clue how to get back home 😂. he didn't really think about becoming a pirate hunter, he just figured that it's an easy way to make money while he's still lost at sea.😂😂

Not sure if you caught it but when Garp punches the floor you can hear the earth rumble from its force. With Garp and Mihawk, we are given an idea of the level of strength that awaits the crew on the Grand Line. Also, not sure if you knew but the guy in the dreads holding the poster for Shanks is Yussop, Ussop’s dad. He’s the sniper/marksmen of Red Hair pirates. He’s the one that did that cool ricochet bullet shot when we saw Red Hair crew fighting the bandits in the Luffy flashback.

[@tisme9420]

One of the things I love about One Piece is that it has introduced it's endgame characters very early in the saga. Some of these characters in Season 1 you'll rarely ever see again until towards the end of the story. Oda doesn't come up with mountains to climb one arc after another, he shows you exactly how big and seemingly insurmountable the mountains are and it lingers there throughout the story. You understand that the crew is small compared to the world, and it just makes all the more fun to follow them and see how they could possibly conquer it.

[@snuzzlebumble]

I think the LA One Piece is such a breath of fresh air because basically every other show is dark, gritty, and pessimistic. Having just a fun show that is a beacon of pure optimism is so refreshing!

[@roycebracket1010]

If you like Mihawk I want to give you a bit easter egg. Go back to eps 1, the moment after Roger executed. When all the pirate setting sail among the ships there's on little boat floating. That's Mihawk's ship. That's how he sailed the sea. Making him MORE BADASS

The world building of One Piece is usually one of the most praised aspects about the series! It is fantastic and the world feels huge when reading the manga/watching the anime.
