First Time Watching One Piece! "SHOCKED HOW MUCH I LIKE THIS SHOW”

[@GreySunday17]

I hope you guys read my comment ! It's a running gag in the story that Zoro's sense of direction is literally non existent !! Example, when Luffy found him in the hallway and Zoro said "this place is a maze" whilst being in a literal hallway that goes in a straight line, lmao. 😂 Just a heads up !

If u didn't know, all of the people who helped create this series are huge onepiece fans. Even the director. And it is one of the reasons why this series is so successful. They never included a scene without the permission of Oda aka creator of OP. There's a lot of behind the scenes, interviews in the yt. Hope y'all watch it in your free time to see how passionate all of the people who helped to create this. Also there are a lot of, i mean a LOT of hidden easter eggs from manga even down to their costumes, the wine they drink and stuff.

[@ngatasworld7294]

As much as they should, it's better that they don't discriminate against the live action's efforts. Plus I think it's more of a tease for new watchers to get into the anime, which I think made a lot of people think abt starting it.

[@ZachParks21]

Along was supposed to be a sawfish. Many people mistake the sawfish for a species of shark, but they’re actually more closely related to stingrays and other members of the ray family. His nose is most definitely made to resemble the sawfish nose. The sawfish actually has teeth that grow out of both sides of their long appendage in the place of a nose. They hunt fish by swimming into a school of small fish and thrash their saw quickly back and forth, usually killing many of the bait fish. Then they eat the injured or dead fish that remain.

[@kevinrafaelriverabueso1419]

The manga, which is the original source material, tends to be more bloody and dark than the anime, which is why I can tell you that Buggy's first introduction in the manga was scary (for a moment), unlike his anime appearance. Now, the Live Action did make them darker characters, but it suits them well, imo. Each media version (Manga, Anime, Live Action) has its own unique characteristics and twists, but they all maintain the core values of the story, at least up to this moment.

[@erndaman8641]

You'll never experience an anime/manga or a work of fiction in your lifetime as great as One Piece. It is a masterclass in storytelling. I started my One Piece journey in early 1999, when it first aired in our country. Up to this day I anticipate every chapter and every episode that come out. I fell in awe of the story, the world and the characters. It may seemingly cartoonish at first but it will teach you many lessons in life. It will make you happy, it will make you mad, it will make you go at the edge of your seat and it will definitely make you cry. When people ask me why are you still watching that even though you're almost 40, I say this, "This anime has more heart and thought put into this than most shows produced nowadays. You need to experience this show to know, and once you do, you'll also love it.". As an advice, consume One Piece at your own pace, no need to rush. It is meant to be enjoyed piece by piece, savor every morsel of the story and before you know it, you'll be amazed by the journey you went through with the Straw Hat crew.

One Piece is definitely a journey, and the mangaka spends a good amount of time actually exploring each place the crew visits, and foreshadowing. Even though it’s a lot of episodes if you’re just focused on enjoying the adventure it won’t seem like a chore to get caught up

Additionally, one of the 'make a wish' campaigns was for a kid who was terminally ill with cancer to finish the story for the kid, so Oda showed up and told the kid that was dying the end of the story. The guy is a fucking wonderful man. I know hardly anything about him but I have not heard one single bad thing about this man.

I started the One Piece journey back in 2018… my buddy had been hounding me and hounding me about watching One Piece but never did because I was intimidated by the sheer amount of episodes.. I ended up caving and found myself watching multiple episodes a day, caught up in a year 😂 loved the journey and I think you guys will too

[@zahidurrahman2869]

to start OnePiece, do not get scared of 1000+ episodes. no need to rush to catch up. it is all about the journey, vibe with the crew. you will get there eventually. it is a journey like no other. true. the amount/volume of references from real world history, mythology, legends (European,Asian,African, ... ), religion, politics, economics, social structure, geography, ..... just mind blowing!! Eiichiro Oda is a genius of a writer to create such intricate world with accumulating many themes and topics smoothly.

[@no_osumu]

Hey guys, first time posting a comment. I love your reactions and (just as you said in the first video) it is nice to see the opinion of people who are starting One Piece through the live action. (Spoiler free) I really love the world of One Piece. Some might argue about the pace of the anime but it is there so you can know (and starting loving) all the characters and the world. As you guessed and commented in the first video, there are some dialogues and interactions that were ommited in the live action so some things might feel somewhat weirdly glued. But the original story is pretty (sometimes unbelievably awesome) solid. The author really focuses in storytelling and it becomes very clear that he is telling just one big adventure. I would say take your time. I don't see any reason for rushing to catch up (also because that is not the point). The anime will probably still go on for a couple of years more so you will have plenty of time to "catch up". I just wish you can trully enjoy this amazing journey.

[@bunnyv4228]

So glad you two are reacting to this. One piece is quite the journey. fun fact: Kuro actually doesn’t have a devil fruit power. He’s just that fast on his feet due to training and technique.

[@nicoluna9674]

One Piece manga started in 1997, and the anime started 2 years later in 1999. Eiichiro Oda works so hard, sleeps very little, and over time has gotten ill. One time when he was hospitalized in 2013, Masashi Kishimoto (creator of Naruto) came to visit him in the hospital and saw him working on One Piece there in his hospital room. Kishimoto ended helping him draw some of the story arc for one of the manga. Won’t say which, no spoilers, but in the anime it is the arc that runs from episodes 575 to 746. Not sure how much of the arc he helped with, just knew he had helped. Someone who got what it took to do this type of storytelling. To answer your question: started the anime in or around 2003/2004. Was suggested by my nephew. Am 49 now and cannot wait till the anime is released each Sunday (most Sundays lol), at 9:30am in Japan. 5:30pm (Saturday) pst.

Oda the author says no relationships among the crew ever. There are a family. Netflix are not allowed to change character backstories or make the crew love interest to each other.

Probably the first reactors I’ve seen read into it. But I get it, it’s a common expectation in shows. Just not this one😅 Crew romance is a no no

[@myTERAexperience]

@ECAstack can you stop spoiling for Michelle and Ron? Michelle and Ron have stated they weren't familiar with One Piece before watching the live action. They did a video asking people not to do spoilers and specifically say things viewers know that they don't know that they will learn from watching. Knowing what the author said is something they don't know, but learning they never get together they'd learn from watching...thus it is a spoiler in their eyes. Michelle and Ron stated what THEY, the reactors WE are watching consider spoilers.... that comment fits that criteria. Commenting it over and over again on their channel means you are intentionally trying to get them to read it. So are you trying to spoil it?

[@ECAstack]

@@myTERAexperience Brah, its not a spoiler when the author himself says it in a multitude of interviews over the years as well as the OPLA show runners as recent as a few weeks ago in interviews and articles as its not their intent to show romance between the crew in the OPLA, This is a story about friends/action as a boys shonen manga/anime and not romance. Its good to know now than think some shipment non-sense that will never happen even when it won't after a millon anime shows or manga chapters.

One of my favorite things about One Piece is you can see a character from the start of the show, first 100 episodes and under then find out some random crazy connection to that character or event or something in the 800's or higher. Just the web of world building is beautifully done. And to add my friends watched this when it started and in high school. I didn't care for it at the time but years later i go to their house to chill with 4-5 dudes and they were watching OP and it was such an amazing episode that i had told them then and there i gotta start this over because i gotta know how we got here lol.

Rice is correct, the game Garp and Koby are playing is an Asian game. It’s the game called “Go” in Japanese or “Weiqui” in Mandarin or “Baduk” in Korean. Strategy game. There’s also an manga/anime based around it that actually got me into it called Hikaru no Go.

The anime is goofier but the heart and essence is there in the live action

[@EliDontDoIt]

[@JayRV2488]

The One Piece live action did so well because Eiichiro Oda (the creator of One Piece) worked hand in hand with Netflix and the studios to bring it to life. He was heavily involved in the show. He gave the final green light for every decision. I’m not sure other anime/manga would translate as well as a live action show.

[@FuzzyDlop]

He clearly didn't give green light for every decision, since he clearly said to Japanese media that he didn't like some of the changes as they affect characters or future storylines. And there's a dozen manga that would translate to live action better than One Piece.

[@SBaby]

@@FuzzyDlop Interesting that this is the first time they ever did a good live action adaptation of an anime or manga. Also, I don't know how true that is about Oda not liking certain changes, because he literally had to approve everything. So if he didn't like something, it simply wouldn't be in the show.

[@SplyttScreen]

Like u guys were talking abt at the end EVERYTHING IN ONE PIECE MATTERS! Everything is done for a reason, again as u said even the fillers. For example (and spoilers I guess?) early on in the anime a character will mention some names of certain characters, then like 500 episodes/chapters later that character is FULLY introduced into the anime/manga. Also even the TINY details that u think wouldn’t matter at all…they do😂. On another note the world building of the OP universe is 100% THE BEST IN ANIME AND MANGA! Even non OP fans can agree with that statement. There’s funny moments, painful, sad, disturbing, disgusting, uncomfortable, insane, and downright devastating, but it all makes sense and makes for an INCREDIBLE story and journey. I REALLY hope u guys do check out the anime, if u want to dip your toes into the WORLD/WORLD BUILDING of OP I recommend checking out the video "The Breathtaking World of One Piece"👌 (no there’s no spoilers in it)

[@Illjwamh]

I started One Piece around 20 years ago, but only casually. I didn't keep up with it and would forget about it for long periods of time. I started REALLY getting into it around 2007. At that time there were 300-something episodes of the anime and I binged them all in like a week and a half. Then I binge read the manga. I've been a die hard fan ever since. And they do indeed have an entire TV network dedicated to the game of Go (or Baduk, as it's called there) in South Korea

[@GisamokanNa]

Some points for clarification: 1. It doesn't always mean that when they have a power, they ate a devil fruit. 2. Their history is different from ours. It's a different world after all. So you can't say, "maybe back then..." because our "back then" is not the same to theirs. They have their own timeline. 3. Their fashion and the things they use are also their own. It doesn't follow the same timeline as ours. That's why you will see someone wearing baseball caps, normal tshirts, suits, etc. and some wearing outfits like the spanish conquistadors, or pirates, and also others that look like farmers, etc. 4. They have their own races, too. It's humans plus others you will see in the next episodes and seasons. That's why it doesn't matter what race the actor/actress that plays a certain character is. As long as they look like the character, it's fine. Their accents don't matter, too because they are all "humans" in the One Piece world.

This arc got some cuts of various characters so i hope that you will give a check to the manga / anime someday :E Btw, Mirror Ball island doesnt appears during the main story but it appeared in one of the short stories (Note: "Short-Term Focused Cover Page Serials" usually shortened to Cover Stories or Cover Arcs, are a series of supplemental stories told through the cover pages of select manga chapters. With few exceptions, they focus on the activities of various antagonists and side-characters after their initial encounters with the Straw Hat Pirates.)

Yes you should definitely start watching the anime. Once you do, you will never be the same. It's very well written. The author (Oda) can make you cry over a friken banana if he wanted to. That's how good One Piece is. That being said, with the amount of shows ur doing now, I do suggest finishing one current show that ur watching first if ur planning on tackling One Piece. It's a journey, and a LONG one at that. We don't want u overworking urselves.

[@candlerc]

They way they did the live action in MANY cases can act as a supplemental to the anime. For example, the Garp/Helmeppo/Coby interaction is not covered in the anime. It leaves a LOT of questions for later in the anime. That is just ONE of many examples of how the live action adds to the anime experience.

I started in 2016 when I was in middle school. Now I’m 19 in my sophomore year of college. It’s definitely a journey but it’s so worth it!!

[@ravenfall9477]

Its fine to watch the anime whenever you guys want, it is much better to watch it without feeling burnt out

[@ASCE56]

I started watching the anime my freshman year of high school, got to episode 300 something by the end of sophomore year. then I started reading the manga and caught up by the time I graduated

One Piece is truly a league of its own. It's a journey like no other. I started my OP journey back in 2020. My brother had been convincing me to watch it waaaaaaay before that but it having 700 episodes at that time kinda put me off 😅 but now I'm caught up and all I gotta say is, I WANT MORE! Some people suggest to give it at least 100 episodes to see if you'd like to continue watching the series but as for me, the first episode of the anime was enough to hook me to the series and then followed by other instances that just stamped my undying love for One Piece 😅 It's really so easy to fall in love with One Piece in all its forms, may it be manga, anime or live action. This really is a masterpiece by Oda sensei. It's gonna give you a roller coaster ride of emotions and will take you to a different world ❤

19:20 I feel like answering that question well spoil things for later.

[@No_remorseless]

I started One Piece beginning of 2021. I've binged the anime twice myself. Watch other reactions to feel the emotions of others 1st times and read the manga weekly now. I'd recommend watching a KZbin video called The Breath Taking World of One Piece, it's spoiler free but gives you a sense of the art of each Arc and island. Also as others have said, it's journey not to be rushed so watch it at your pace. There's a lot to read into and think about per episode

[@robsonchagas2984]

Good to be smart with the channel decisions. And great that you are having so much fun.

[@RVillamor-yn1li]

Fan fact. Each episode in the Live action of one piece was actually comprised of 3 to 7 episodes in the anime. That's why changes were made in the live action. The 8-episode one piece live action reached 68 epsodes of the anime.

[@piratedavey5246]

I started one piece when I was 13 and I am 31 now. I started with dragon ball z much younger and followed the big three anime/manga (Naruto, One Piece, Bleach) weekly growing up. Ive watched lots of anime but those are my top 4 anime, One Piece being my favorite.

The different title card designs represent the different pirate crews. The first few are actually fashioned for each of Luffy's crew members. They are predictions of what their jolly Rogers would be if they were to each Captain a pirate crew.

[@klairvoyance]

The One Piece Live Action (just like the One Piece anime) is adapting the manga. However, the live action adaptation's plot deviates quite a bit from the manga, due to only having 8 episodes, while the anime adapts it almost 1-on-1. Though I agree that Alice in Borderland, Rurouni Kenshin, etc. were easier to adapt since (a) they're more grounded and not as fantastical and wacky as One Piece (b) and also made in Japan(ese), so they don't suffer the same chance of coming off as corny when you bring "anime dialogue" into live action format....

[@microwaevy]

My One Piece journey started when I was like 6 and saw the 4Kids dub in like 2001... My cousin and I ended up downloading episodes on Limewire when we got our first computer and I was caught up by the manga around 9th grade 2009. Been on and off on the anime rewatching arcs when I want to revisit some stuff, but have read the manga every week it comes out since

[@WatermelonWasabi]

Omg I can’t wait till you guys do one piece reactions for the anime even if it won’t be for a while. I know you guys would love it so much it just gets better and better and better

[@phobic1818]

6:45 She said that there isn't any toilet on the boat 😂😂 Zoro was just confused cuz of the water there

[@teck1756]

I'm just starting to watch your reactions while I work on server stuff. It's pretty hilarious so far. Rice asks ~@29:00 about our journeys into One Piece. In the late 2000's, I was an admin of a fansite for Bleach, and the "4th Division" of our site was heavily invested into the One Piece anime. At first, I thought it was too goofy animation-wise, but I finally gave it a chance around 2007/2008, and... Well, you'll see for yourself. I can already see you've taken the plunge and are in the Alabasta arc. I'll love catching up with you and making more comments along the way. (Don't worry, I'm being sure to "Like" each video as I watch your playlists.)

[@lightstrickreacts]

One piece is so good man...literally an anime for people like both of you. There will be laughter, lots of tears, and lots of theories. When you are ready, please watch the anime. You will not regret it.

[@Hollow_Vamp]

Love the ivan ooze callout, That was my childhood lol

[@ovutai363]

Buggy was handcuffed by handcuffs made of sea water in the scene with Arlong

[@LJ_S1K]

I'm 29. My One Piece Journey started back in 2004, I was 10yrs old watching the 4kids dub. I stopped watching probably in 8th grade, but picked the show back up when I went into college, once I caught up with the Anime I switched over to Manga, I went a long time not knowing that the Manga was way ahead of the Anime lol. But yeah I've been a weekly Manga reader now for years. I don't watch the anime weekly anymore, because of the pacing, but a couple times a year I will binge watch from where I stopped up until the most current. The Anime is great when you can just binge it, but for me it was excruciating having to wait every week hahah, anyway I think ya'll should at least watch the Anime up until the live action season 1 ends

[@Valenvenge]

I start one piece 14 years ago, I was bored in my dorm and borrow a friend external drive and watch all the episode that he have... from there I start keeping up on the manga till today

[@ebreshea1337]

Animes are usually adaptations but sometimes there are completely original animes created for that medium. Apparently psycho-pass, FLCL, Samurai Champloo, Kill-la-kill, Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Evangelion, and Cowboy Bebop were all created as animes, not as adaptations. There are many many more - especially (standalone) anime movies are usually not adaptations. In some cases, mangas are even adaptations of a Light Novel. Or sometimes they skip the manga and adapt a LN straight into an anime.
