Mackenyu was born in USA and went to Japan when he was still a child. He also can play several instruments, sing, dance and is awesome with swords, martial arts and archery. He's complete.

[@yours_eve2001]

The entire cast was amazing but Zoro's casting was 100% Zoro from One Piece, that I did not think for a minute that he is an actor portraying a character. I know that some claim that he was not so goofy as in the manga but in my opinion Zoro in the live action is more serious, because yeah we might watch a live action with comedy elements but you can clearly say from his first fight with N7 when he cut him into pieces, that the live action is much more mature than the original work in that domain, in my opinion. And Zoro live action has his funny moments too. I believe that he is 100% Zoro. Mackenyu did an amazing job and you can tell from that that he is a huuuuge fan of ONE PIECE.

[@vamparicW]

totally agree, but not just that, even sanji lol in the anime Zeff lost his leg rescuing sanji IIRC, in the manga he ate it, but the point is Live action is more serious than the anime too. The only thing i miss was the booger scene in baratie but the whole crew is fiiiiiiiiiiire

[@majRFan]

For those who only watched Netflix One Piece and think Zoro is amazing, let me tell you that the entire show was like just a trailer for One Piece. And the OG Zoro is so amazing and badass beyond words…. There are some Zoro moments in the Anime/manga, that still gives me goosebumps just thinking about it…. If you have time to spare, please give the OG One Piece a try, you will not regret it….

Mackenyu Maeda is incredible with his swords. He plays Zoro so perfectly, it's juste INSANE! And I've no doubt about the fact that he'll progress as the story progress and grow to become the greatest swordsman in the world and probably the only with 3 swords art!!! 💪💪💪

[@ErieleAngelaSolis]

Mackenyu is the right fit for every live action characters he did

[@justskye8064]

When I first saw One Piece, Mackenyu immediately caught my attention because he reminded me of someone I knew a long time ago. They’ve got the same eyes. Now I see that person in him and every other day when I’ve got time, I will look at Macken’s photos to remember how his eyes look like. Anyway, Mackenyu is a very talented actor, his acting skills are on point. He’s now one of my favorite actors and I hope he will be recognized as he deserves and get more roles in international films. :-)

[@CableAnna]

Can we appreciate how accurate the younger versions of the actors were. Well done casting team!

[@Celebrinnen]

Somehow, both the manga and the anime had totally missed me, so came to the series as a blank slate. And man, did I love it! The casting was perfect, the actors were brilliant, it had a good balance of goofy and serious. I loved Luffy, I loved Sanji, and I loved Nami, but Zoro became hands down the instant favourite. Mackenyu is just amazing. And this edit is SO GOOD, I have watched it now for two weeks at least once or twice a day!

[@TheHoon57]

I'm usually not a fan of live action anime, but I'll admit I'm enjoying this one so far. I also love how they added Zoro pledge to Luffy. It's not exactly like the manga, but it's good in its own right.

[@robbertlw9610]

I just realized one of the reasons why the live-action of One Piece is exactly what I needed from the live-action of Avatar! Luffy from the live-action has almost the exact same energy as Aang from the animated series of Avatar!

[@julia3983able]

Flipped on Netflix one day to find the live action trending. I decided to try it partly out of curiosity and partly because One Piece was one of those shows I grew up on. Not gonna lie-- I feared that the adaptation was gonna be bad. In fact, I was almost positive that it would be based on past experience with live actions. My biggest concern was the show turning out too cheesy and corny. For one, how were they gonna portray Luffy's stretchy abilities? It would look ridiculous, I thought. But to my surprise, this show is pretty amazing so far (still on episode 1). The overall acting and action sequences feel solid. And yes, the casting is so spot-on!! Zoro straight out of the anime. Update: I just finished the entire show. It’s amazing!!! This adaptation is GOLD….and the actors are a HUGE part of it. Highly recommend it!! Give it a try anyone hesitating out there. Season 2 can’t come fast enough 🙏

[@wulfreiks7239]

God damn it, they nailed Zoro and Mihawk perfectly. Luffy and Sanji as well to an extent.

[@ThePerfectG]

the ones that havent grown on us, will! i truly believe that lol maybe an OP fan can say they dont like usopp in general but by the end its hard to imagine lol possible i guess, but i feel like it'll be the same! but tbf so far they all grew on me already haha

This is really an amazing edit. Not gonna lie tho but Zoro may be my favorite character of all time. I just hope that there will be a season 2 of one piece soon because I would love to see Zoro more often. But by far, I love the series so much, that I have played it over 4-5 times.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@nekomiaou]

I guess season 2 will take AT LEAST 2 years to produce, and it's really a minimum if they want to keep the same level of quality. This is just the beginning of the story, if Netflix stays with it until the end, we are at the beginning of 20 years of adventures. Ho, and East blue is generally considered as one of the weakest arc in the serie (but you have to start somewhere and set the mood for what's to come).

[@trantho9891]

I come back here after reading all the hates on Zoro by Mackenyu 😂. I guess because I did not watch anime so I never compared LA to anime and thats how I enjoyed this show and like the Zoro in LA so much 😂. I did not even know Mackenyu before One Piece. People want Mackenyu to have more fun and laugh out loud like in anime, but laugh just makes sense when the words are funny enough which do not happen in this Zoro's case. His expressions are good to me given that he is portraying a cold and cool man who barely talk unless prompted. Portraying a talktive and/or noisy person is much easier, so the point here is what he wants to portray, not what he can.

[@HisWord_Joshua1_9]

Funny thing is, since I've decided to watch the LA because of Mackenyu, so far I've never seen any hate comment to him. People from different nations are glad he played to be Zorro. I guess haters are outnumbered. 😊❤
