WE ARE ON THE CRUISE | One Piece Live Action Ep 1x1 Reaction & Review | Netflix

[@peanutbutter447]

They didn't change Gol D Roger's name to Gold Roger for the live action. You're just not supposed to know that at this point in the story. It's just that in the beginning of One Piece he was only known as Gold Roger until you get to a certain point in the story it's revealed his name is actually Gol D Roger. There is a in story reason for it that is a spoiler.

[@niteshsingh8966]

ya will of D spoiling is fun

[@1313skr]

Spoiler, sorta... I'd have to double check to be sure, but I was under the impression the reason he's known as Gold Roger is because the navy specifically refers to him that way assumably to draw less attention to the will of D which they sorta fear... As the crew hasn't met anyone who knows better yet, they would likely be unaware. Propaganda 101...

[@niteshsingh8966]

Ya it is sort of they don't want the other civilians to support the people with D in their name because it is a threat to navy @@1313skr

@kiilee5963 in this scenario, much like life, the navy is controlled by the government....

[@loiseauxmort9568]

Regarding why they call Him Gold Roger to begin with, the same thing happened in the anime. It isn't revealed that his name is Gol D. Roger until way later into the story. In fact, if I remember correctly, you're still in the Little Garden Arc, and his name isn't revealed as Gol D. Roger until Drum Island, many episodes after, so even your knowledge about it probably comes from somewhere else, since at the point of the story you are at that reveal still hasn't happened yet.

[@arahcozy]

Yup its the way Marine don’t want people to know that he has D in his name. Gol D Roger!

[@chandrahasvemuri4841]

25:03 there are like 4 versions of Roger's execution in the anime itself , so in the later versions they show shanks, mihawk and other characters watching the execution. Many people got inspired from Rogers words and became pirates.

[@stalhein62]

As well as a certain figure in a green cloak who we see in one shot.

[@BRTLxo]

Was also gonna comment this.

[@AP-RSI]

For example, it only became known much later that Buggy and Shanks were members of Gol D. Roger's crew! That's why they weren't seen at the execution at the beginning of One Piece!

[@zibus8456]

Nerdy's giddy excitement and Clarous's bewildered confusion is exactly what I wanted from this. I agree with you Nerdy. It's such a brilliant adaptation. There's a lot of great decisions and they nail the tone and little details. The casting is incredible. I loved every episode, and I hope you do to. As for why it's called "the One Piece" as far as I know only the English version of the opening has Roger call it that. In every other version, it's kinda vague why everyone calls it that. I don't blame you getting confused. I thought he called it the One Piece in the anime opening too.

[@DonnyD_Mingo]

In the english version of the opening he says "I left everything I gathered together in one place" not "in one piece"

[@jdjack519]

[@orbboom6119]

[@sleepysera]

The thing I love the most about this is him basically getting to experience how we viewers feel when we watch the anime OP reactions. It's SO precious how he smiles knowingly when she asks questions he knows the answers to but won't spoil 🤭❤

[@BrowneePointz]

I’m glad y’all enjoyed this! As a huge OP fan(I just got caught up last week after YEARS) I LOVED how they managed to capture the essence of the AniManga and didn’t shy away from the silliness. The production design and Hair & Makeup team KILLED it. Of note, you’re gonna notice some WILD footwear, and apparently it’s because Netflix rules forbid open toed shoes on set for liability reasons. Hence Iñaki Godoy not having Luffy’s iconic simple Sandals. Also Zoro’s Actor Mackenyu was also in a Ruroni Kenshin adaptation I believe and uh….is Sonny Chiiba’s Son, yes, THAT Sonny Chiiba

[@luffysanji9840]

I love Nerdy's reaction to watching One Piece anime and now the LA. Let's go. Seeing him so excited watching the LA makes me smile and excited with him. So eager for upcoming LA episodes. But I feel bad for the great spoiler coming ahead even Nerdy is on episode 7x in anime. Anyway, still a joyful ride I speculated.

[@nikolai6361]

when i started the anime, it was a bit overwhelming, but think of it like this, instead of it being a lot to catch up to, its so much to enjoy

[@stalhein62]

That contrast between wide eyes and a big grin alongside just bemused is hilarious

[@Dracobyte]

A gentle reminder that this live-action series embraced the silliness and over-the-top moments from the original, and it worked!

At last, the time has come for the Nerdy Nightly OPLA reactions! As a longtime OP fan, I found the spin they did for the Live Action very enjoyable (though there are a few things I took issue with, but we'll get to that in another reaction). Reminded me of watching Xena, Sinbad, and Hercules back in the late 90's/early 00's. Already getting a kick out of your excitement, and Clarus' confused reaction to your excitement, lol.

[@sadmanshakib7646]

[@mon4711]

Luffy: gets stretched by a bullet Nerdy: yep this is normal stuff Clarus: whAt was that

[@HollowKonpaku]

Gold Roger never said “One Piece” in his speech. The treasure came to be known that through people referring to it as such. One Piece (WAN PISU) is actually said in English so the dub tried to do something funny with him, actually saying the words. But i’ve interpreted it as the legend of his treasure’s name that was given by the people searching for it.

[@milkntomatoes9418]

It's also very likely created by the media (as in, the news ppl). In much much later arcs we see how embellishments by the media lead to the creation of misconceptions and legends

[@HollowKonpaku]

@@milkntomatoes9418 Wonderful point!!!

[@idoorion9279]

Didn't he say he left it all in one piece?

[@avz1865]

Only in (some versions of) the English dub. In the Funimation dub he says "one place". In the original japanese he just says he 'left everything there' (soko ni oitekita)@@idoorion9279

[@ely03cassandra]

I love how much Nerdy is into the whole episode and Clarus is sitting next to him, being so confused about his excitement. xxD Let's hope Nerdy is right and the live-action will get Clarus so hooked on One Piece that she will want to watch the anime. ;)

[@Nate9-9]

2:55 in the anime/manga, Roger never called his treasure the One Piece either. Sort of a Mandela effect around that.

[@-ACE.]

The gold roger is actually somewhat accurate. The Marines call him Gold Roger to hide the fact of the D... IDK where you are in the anime now, so I don't wanna spoil much, but the D is important.

[@Shadow-fb2ec]

Hes at the end of little garden

[@David_Peltier]

I have to say - the live action version was my first exposure to the series and I really love the show. It's a great series with a great story and I already can't wait for Season 2.

[@KumaTorey]

love how Nerdy knowing context is just him getting so giddy about so much. But I will say though, little bits here and there that may seem changed is because they come from the manga instead of the anime as well as added bits here and there since its working off 20 years of material.

[@marpj6138]

Just a note but Yasopp always had just a headband with his name, never a tattoo. Also as others said until episode 90 or 91 of the anime they only use the name as "Gold Roger" and its the name in his bounty poster, but his real name is Gol D. Roger is first used at those episodes (and there is a reason for it way later). Also the scene of Roger execution is closer to what we know way later as in the manga/anime with Mihawk, Shanks, Buggy (and others) are know to be there at that moment, however when it was first animated (aka where you are now) that information was not know. There is a lot of other things like that because the producers are huge fans (and Oda did help a lot in the project) so they could use current information to make the world more accurate. Like the bounty wall in this episode was various references. Another example is the scene where Luffy eats the Devil Fruit as they went back and changed a prompt due to the latest chapter at the time making it a great easter egg

[@NerdyNightly]

Yasopp has a tattoo in the Loguetown filler, and that was the last time I saw him

Then just assume the anime made an animation error. It's drawn as a headband in the manga. @@NerdyNightly

[@whade62000]

24:30 Noo! Dude, that's a spoiler! He's always been called "Gold Roger". We don't actually learn that he shares Luffy's middle initial and that the letter "D." has hidden relevance until what's probably gonna be in season 2 of this show.

[@LPTheGas]

@Nerdy: one thing I think you may not have picked up on is that Garp is the officer overseeing Roger's execution, since his name isn't mentioned in the scene, you're still used to thinking of him in the anime as wearing the face-obscuring dog hat from the Kobymeppo cover story, and he doesn't show up again until the end of the episode, looking a fair bit different due to it being nearly a quarter century later (so it's entirely plausible you wouldn't connect him back to the guy in the prologue and realize it's the same character). Personally I think this is a brilliant change vs having it be just some random marine, though to fully explain why would be a bit of a spoiler.

[@moneilwisby61]

Live action Luffy is slightly different, but he certainly nails the vibe and intensity.

[@tarunupadhyay2821]

Nerdy, if you had waited to complete at least 400 or 500 episodes of one-piece anime and then started to watch live-action, then you would have gotten way more easter eggs than what you have gotten right now. Easter eggs are everywhere in the live action from music to wanted posters to even random character mentions. But anyway hope you enjoy this.

[@MrProthall]

I think the Anime version makes more sense, personally. Shanks wouldn't want to let that treasure out of his sight for a second. He just didn't expect Luffy to BLOODY EAT THE DAMN THING IN A SECOND

[@jarrettenaope7038]

Luffy is about as stealthy as a Blender full of BOLTS

[@MeatSim9]

You are gonna have SUCH a good time with this series. I only saw so much of One Piece, but this series does it all justice. I've NEVER seen a better live-action adaptation of a manga/anime. You'll probably pick up on more easter eggs than I can.

[@peterepeatepete2845]

[@banonKING]

Now you know how Luffy got his scar under his eye. The Anime is great but it omitted A LOT of things from the original Manga that this Live Action version kept in. The Live Action version also added a lot of nods and references to Oda's work.

[@joolzian2510]

I’m so happy you’re watching this! Found you through The Sandman and been devouring your content since. OMG your Buggy reaction 🤣

[@Thinkcrown]

Man with beard (Nerdy?) is adorable-and I mean that in an honest, non-demasculinizing way. Despite being emotively muted (in comparison to him), I agree with the majority of his takes. Switching gears, I’m also impressed by the keeness of the woman with red hair (Clarus?). She gives off ASD vibes with the tree-for-the-forest and similarly muted emotions-so like me-and yet, (despite having seen this show upwards of ten times) she has spied things I have never. That keenness of flawed-or-odd details is a money-making skill in the right context.

[@ChrisBermudo]

Nerdy said “Lucy I mean Luffy” 😁

[@johnlisiesky5337]

I tried watching the OP anime at one time and had trouble getting into it, but then the Live action came along and I loved it. So much so that it helped me get back into the anime. I skipped forward in the anime to where the live action left off and now I'm hooked and am now arriving at Alabasta. I am binge watching to keep just ahead of Nerdy's reactions to the anime.

[@HaibaneRakka571]

I never really watched or read One Piece even though I've been an anime fan for over 20 years, I had an absolutely wonderful time watching the Live Action and I don't know if I'll have time to catch up on the source material but I've been seriously considering it after seeing how much love was poured into the live action series

[@SoloRenegade]

never seen the show before. watched the entire live action series and loved it. then watched the first few episodes of the original and loved it even more seeing how well they adapted it.

[@aldan7812]

Yeah man, I absolutely loved every minute of every frame of this adaptation. I think we've all said at some point or another 'it just needed more episodes' for so many shows now, and I think this adaptation in particular, demonstrates the cope in that for all of us. Would this have been better with 10 or 12 eps? Of course. But the fact it was 8 didn't mean this had to be shit story telling like so many others that we make excuse after excuse for. It's amazing what happens when you get writers who clearly prioritise adapting the existing characters personalities and narrative arcs, and not inject their own bs into it for whatever reason. This was a joy, an absolute treat amongst a pile of disrespectful dogshit last year - cant wait to see the rest of your reviews!

[@nanach6276]

Netflix fkukked up my favorite moment. When Koby asks Luffy if he can be a Marine. Luffy said" How would I know". Given the rythm and the fast pace Koby decided for himself, rather than make a promise to some one else

[@RIPsquadwrld]

The Live Action is more about seeing the world of Op and the characters in real life settings, given ODA personaly handpicked the actors, meaning if they were real this is who they would be so its amazing for the fans just to see the characters come to life, ODA said if Luffy was from our world he would be Brazilian, but the actor for luffy is Mexican so it still fits, it was my ddream to play luffy so seeing another mexican play him is like hes' carrying on my will!

So glad you guys posted this, I probably wouldn't have watched the show otherwise. Knowing nothing of the story other than what it's based on, watched ep. 1 and it was the most ridiculous yet enjoyable episode of TV that I have seen in a long time! Agree with everything Nerdy said, esp. about Luffy's interaction with his "crew", his wonder and encouragement. Just makes yeh feel good 😊 Also like the way, so far, that they have written Nami, not a "girl boss" but very competent and capable within realistic ways. Fun show, looking forward to the rest.

[@JJ_6036]

whoops, you mentioned the live action being adapted from the anime, but the anime itself is an adaptation from the Manga. To be clear, this show and the anime are on the same footing. The manga is the source material. I think this is important to distinguish because MOST people starting the Live Action start with "I wonder what this _adaptation_ has ruined or not ruined", using *adaptation* like it's the only thing that matters, not fully realizing the anime is also an adaptation and it doesn't get flack about it. The *story* of one piece is being told again. The only real *adapting* going on is the change of format, which changes a lot automatically. Just like how the anime was changed to be slower paced to fit the "Saturday morning cartoons weekly episode" format. This show is the _story_ of One Piece suited to real actors and live sets. So...emphasizing _adaptation_ is just us giving flack where zero flacks need to be given. Let us give zero flacks and judge the show on its own merit and stop emphasizing that it's adapting something because that is criminally obvious anyway. I have spoken 🧙‍♂ -- rando on the internet

[@Lowlandlord]

1000 is so many, apparently they are remaking the anime, while the OG is still airing. I do appreciate they are working to retcon and tighten up the plotholes and stuff, make it consistent, which is easier when you know what you're doing. Lotsa IPs don't really know what they are doing until later, they change and retcon things years in because it's better for the story.
