ONE PIECE Episode 5 'Zoro vs Mihawk Fight Scene' - Netflix Live Action Series VS Anime Comparison

[@Netsaver]

The guy they picked for Mihawk was beyond perfect, he gives both Mihawk's sass and casual boredom with everything to a T. Not to mention that tone of voice he did just fits so well.

[@bluemoon3726]

True and also idk why but he's hot🔥😅

His biggest issue I think is he is directed to not use his natural speaking voice which I think zoro honestly does use more. At least make him a little more genuine, also I think some 5 o’clock shadows to roughen his appearance more would help. He needs to look like a pirate hunter more

[@huku5jyu8]

The swordsmith Hanzo Hattori, who appears in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill," is the biological father of Mackenyu, who played Zoro. "Sonny Chiba"He is a famous Japanese action actor. Makkenyu in the Japanese movie ``Rurouni Kenshin'' was also wonderful. In fact, he was taught martial arts and karate by his father, "Sonny Chiba", from an early age. His real name Makkenyu, written in kanji, means "to help people with the sword of truth." I think he was destined for this role from the time he was born. His father, "Sonny Chiba"died of pneumonia in August 2021.

Mackenyu as Zoro is a 9/10 for me but Mihawk’s actor completely knocks its out of the park at 9.9/10. Almost as if the characters came to life out of the comic book

[@0neLiners]

The actor who plays Mihawk only acts on the side. His main job is being a casting director :)

[@cinemacraze5000]

Exactly

[@mariael2620]

Exactly to me it'd have been almost perfect if they showcased Zoro's laid-back and actual casual self. He used to smile and laugh a lot too

[@phemeloseotlolla]

The fact that they managed to adapt the scene almost 1:1 while simultaneously making it its own thing just speaks volumes to how much they understand the term "adaptation ". Zoro only put up the third sword when he did a special attack, so they did the choreography pretty well, and he didn't look goofy trying to fight with a sword in his mouth. It's actually really good.

[@Tystolfo]

I personally don't like that he didn't use his third sword from the start. It lowkey indicates live action Zoro isn't taking the fight fully seriously from the start, unlike in the manga where he goes 3 sword style from the get go because he knows there's no room to fuck around and find out while also not wanting to disrespect such a legendary opponent.

[@o-shawnspecific80]

@Tystolfo yeah agreed. However, with speaking parts, I dont see it happening as often during fights. Because realistically, a person can't talk with a sword in their mouth and be understood.

[@o-shawnspecific80]

@Tystolfo there's gonna be a lotta little stuff like that that's gonna be hard to do in the series, like for one so far we've seen Luffys leg stretch real high but with the choice to keep shoes on I imagine it would be pretty goofy if his shoes get bigger if his foot does. They are doing well so far though, the scene where Zoro had his mouth sword at a guys throat was a dope practical use of the three sword style that I dont think we've seen prior.

[@danielhaire6677]

Helps that the creator of the manga was one of the producers from day one. Something no other adaption has been able to claim.

[@johnbarber3572]

Nah the pacing is the worst part imo, I think they really struggled with the 10 to 8 episode change. But still an excellent adaptation with room for improvement

Only thing stopping a second season would be potential budget concerns. It’s more than popular enough so far and let’s see with word of mouth months down the line how it increases, but this season was already a budget of like 100 million, and I can’t imagine that number going down with the increasing extravagant ships and powers and settings and individuals

The actors, in my eyes, appeared to be born for their roles. However, I do have concerns that some viewers may not embrace it fully due to comparisons with the anime. It's essential to recognize that anime and live-action adaptations can't mirror each other precisely because human actors aren't as adaptable as their animated counterparts. In my opinion, we should celebrate these emerging adaptations, as they bring our imaginations to life.

That's the whole point of Zoro's special swordsmanship. His 3 sword style is iconic. If he doesn't do that in the show there's gonna be riots. Like if Captain America doesn't have his shield.

True but the Live Action took a different route to the Anime version like Buggy works for Arlong.. Luffy, Zoro and Nami teamed up to fight Ax Hand Morgan, Captain Alvida was looking for Pirate Bounty Hunter Zoro and Kaya owns a ship yard full of ships not just the Going Mary and Garp tells Colby to take a boarding party to arrest Luffy.. Colby takes 3people.. 😂

@@suryaandikaputratama4554 but nami tells in Live Action Story about Nolands Lie. But anyway Loguetown, Redline Whisky Peak (maybe the small/Big Island with the Giants) Drum and Alabasta, don´t know if this fit all in Season 2. Think maybe in Season 4 about Skypia

[@luigisodo915]

​@@ApevandalenI think they'll cover the alabasta saga with season two. Skypiea will be in season three, though it's tricky to choose how to split things up. An entire season on Skypiea might be wasted, but then again they can't condense both Skypiea and water seven into one season. If I were them I'd probably do most of the season about Jaya and Skypiea (6 or even 7 episodes), then introduce water seven in the last episode and maybe do a cliffhanger with Robin telling the others she'll never see them again. Then on season 4 they could cover water seven and enies lobby, season 5 thriller bark (again, same problem as Skypiea, maybe not a whole season) and maybe they could make the season a bit longer to fit all of sabaody and have season 6 dedicated to Amazon lily, impel down and marineford. Still, that's probably too condensed considering they've adapted in one season around fifty episodes, so I don't know, I wouldn't want to be in the writers' shoes when deciding how to divide the story up

[@eddpalenciavanegas6739]

Almost 100% of the casting for this show is perfect. Every actor has an uncanny similarity with the anime characters, it's amazing!!🎉🎉❤❤

[@barnabusdoyle4930]

Personally, I think the best casting was the actor who play Buggy the Clown. His goofy yet menacing character and obsession with having the spotlight was very well done. The actor who played Mihawk was also great but not in the show long enough. I do feel like they weakened Arlong in the live action and would have rather seen the Kreig fight but I understand why they focused on Arlong. The Kreig fight would have been more challenging to Luffy and more fun though.

[@KaiKrimson56]

They even got the minor characters such as the mayor of the town Buggy attacked and Merry to look exactly like their manga counterparts. Kuro's actor looks like he could pull off playing Auron in a FFX movie if that somehow happened.

[@kingxavierlovely]

[@davidmcneil2296]

I’ve always loved the fact that zoro uses his friends sword in his mouth. Because essentially he cannot truly wield it, because it’s someone else’s Sword/soul, so that’s why it’s in his mouth. Technically he isn’t using it, but is at the same time. I know there used to be huge taboo to touch another samurai’s sword.

[@KaiKrimson56]

I never thought about it like that until now.

[@ajadler1629]

Also if you want Zoro other swords you need to cut his hands, but if you want to take kuina sword you have to cut his head.

[@horyzon3143]

Dont tell me he uses nitoryu in the entire live action series...

[@mikael9325]

In the first episode he used 3 in an effective way. They can't have him holding a sword in his mouth constantly without completely revamping the choreography from the manga. They did this in episode 1 in against Morgan though.

[@simonblomberg1947]

He probably has to. I imagine that otherwise this actors jaw would be destroyed, along with his teeth. But as far as I'm concerned, if they change it to him using three-sword-style only for his most special moves, I'd be fine with such a compromise.

[@Whatth3Games]

Finally a live action anime, really good and that makes you want to watch it because already in the trailer and in the first episode it attracts attention! Of course there are things I didn't like, but they were the smallest things that didn't disturb that much, you can see that everything was well worked out and, of course, Oda's participation in all of this was essential (I believe). I hope that the second season comes even better and even more worked, that it surpasses the 1st season in everything, that it comes out of the good for the better. 💜🇧🇷

[@barnabusdoyle4930]

I actually liked some of the changes, for example having Red Leg Zeff having cut off and eaten his foot to survive the island instead of having the foot cut off underwater. Makes it so much darker and deepens the character of Zeff by quite a bit.

[@sarita-094]
