This is so fun as a longtime One Piece fan. I can never get enough of people reacting to the craziness and greatness of One Piece. Big compliment to your podcast host skills, btw. It was very easy and fun to listen to.
this made my soul happy. It satisfied all the times I wanted to talk about One Piece to non fans around me but they were just disinterested and wierded out instead appreciating just how weird and wonderful it is. Even if they didn't personally want to go watch or read it
@@lelmdrWHO that’s exactly why we made this show! There should always be a space for people to nerd out about the things they love, and it brings out the best in us when we fan out!
Trafalgar Law, a character she mentioned, is actually named Trafalgar Water Law, this is a reference to the battle of Trafalgar and the battle of Waterloo, two pivotal battles Napoleon lost, this is a reference to certain actions the character takes in the story and who he defeats later on.
Been reading the One Piece manga since the year 2001, since I was 11 years old, just recently started re-reading the whole manga and it's so much fun, definitely worth your time, it will not disappoint, it will only make you more invested!! 😆 One Piece has a pure heart, that's why we love it so much and that's why every One Piece fan will instantly feel like family to you once you become a One Piece fan!! 🥰
@@skyewells0821 thank you! We will be uploading episodes going forward but there are 70+ episodes that are audio only available wherever you get podcasts!
You start at the beginning and just enjoy... my best explanation of One Piece is found family.. it probably won't end for about 300 chapters.. so you have a few years until the end.. and there are 1100+ episodes and chapters.. best of luck with your channel
@@monster-enthusiast Oh sorry bout that😅. Also I forgot that there really is a paramecia fruit that has a liquid like property, Magellan's devil fruit.
I mean, there is a guy who has ice powers & ice is frozen water. There’s also someone who has snow powers that’s also similar to ice. There’s even a guy who can create wax, & wax can be a liquid.
Asking a One Piece fan to describe the series in a single sentence should be a illegal 🤣 that is just so hard to do. The premise is fairly simple but what it really is, is like the entirety of human history and conflict wrapped up in a whimsical, political (racism/oppression/slavery/human trafficking), emotional, awful, tragic, hilarious, beautiful and heartfelt bubble, and the main cast is like the cast from Friends but instead of being confined to a couple of apartments, they are traversing an entire fictional planet's ocean in search of a grand treasure whilst encountering various islands with differing cultures and religions. It goes to places you would never expect from the start and does it all in such a charming and mature way. You look back after 500-1000 episodes/chapters and wonder how the fck so much character writing was packed into everything while also building this huge world of lore and history.
There isn't an argument, by August 2022, One Piece had over 516.6 million copies in circulation in 61 countries and regions worldwide, making it the best-selling manga series in history, and the best-selling comic series printed in a book volume.
Somebody already said it in the comments but yes watching "the breathtaking of One Piece" yt video would do a very good reaction. This story is so great it's amazing ! One hour would be way too short for me to talk about One Piece if I had the pleasure to talk to newcomers like you just as the host did I would be there for hours and hours. The story truly has it all and somehow still surprise us and makes us happy. I regulary belly laugh to the serie and cry rivers to it and even cry tears of joys something very hard to achieved. All the characters have smt unique to them even tho it's normal to forget their name you always think "oh yay it's that dude from that island or this character with this gimmick". One of my favorite TH-camrs for OnePiece is the fantastic MelonTee who in my opinions do the best in depth character and theme analysis. Because One Piece actually use quite a lot of show don't tell on the way character respond to event with their trauma and experiences in mind, you know that when Nami give out money it's a really big deal because it's Nami. and then most characters have logical and fletched characters arc that spend across for some hundreds of episodes. My favorite strawhats and character in general is Sanji and he is soo complex and you need to wait around the 800' to get all the pieces of who this : Bratty, perverted, chilvarus, self-sacrificial, the kiddest ever, deeply traumasised for two different reason, cook get it from and even then his character arc isn't done .... also ngl he's quite hot and cute to me XD😅 One thing also that I really apreciate in One Piece is the different dynamic and relationships between characters. Each person on the crew (and also outside of it) react and interact differently between eachover it's amazing. You have : Sanji and Zoro's rivalry, Robin's motherly bond to Chopper, Nami and Usopp camaderie, Brook and Sanji perverted antic, Luffy and Zoro sharing one braincell, Luffy Chopper and Usopp goofing off and in awe of Franky's inventions, Jimbei and Robin as being the most serious and mature, Robin scaring the shit out of Usopp, Usopp and Luffy's love for insects, Nami and Robin sisterly bond ect.... I could go on and on lol very fun stuff Ima stop myself now 'cause it's getting late but yeah I you ever decide to show your progress through the series by doing reactions or reviews I wil gladly be there watching. If you ever met a OnePiece fan we crave to make other people enter the serie lol One of us One of us One of us One of us One of us One of us ...XDXDXD I promises we're mostly normal ahah
i personally think that the One Thing thats sets one piece apart not only from other shonen manga, but from all other adventure stories/stories in general, is its creativity (and as such, also the world building). the fact that Oda manages to keep all of the worldbuilding and all the characters straight in his head is WILD. because, tho he has editors and assistants who helps draw the manga (mostly the backgrounds, oda is still the only one drawing anything that moves he said), HE is still the only one actively actually writing this story. HE has to have it all in his head (and in his binders and binders and binders of notes), and that is literally inconceivable to me. HOW.
This was a really fun podcast and I'm definitely gonna be listening to more of y'all. There's so much I could say about One Piece and why I love it so much (it's my favorite piece of fiction) but what I'll say here is it's the pure embodiment of joy. It's so much fun spending time with these characters and seeing them get into stupid shenanigans. Also because you spend a lot of time goofing around with them it makes the emotional moments HIT because you care deeply about these characters.
what i personally love so much about luffy is how simple he is. he doesnt lie, ever, (in fact he is HORRIBLE at lying), you know his motivations in chapter 1 and you know them in chapter 1127. im pretty sure that hes the only character (along with a few other straw hat characters bc theyre just so well written) that im 99,99% confident that i could predict what he'd do in any circumstance, just because he's such a consistently-written character. i feel like i UNDERSTAND him, like, as a person. also, it was such a good decision by Oda to never have him have any thought bubbles in the manga. like he doesnt do the "talks to himself in his head" thing, specifically because if he is thinking of something to say thats important, he WILL just say it. which makes the moments where he stays silent and serious THAT much more impactful. because then you know "oh oh somethings up". its SO GOOD.
22:53 "The disposition to stand above others" Also its nevery said "You need all 3 to become king!" Why do we Follow Luffy? because he is an Idiot. Because we Love Him Because we BELIEVE IN HIM!"
To clarify something about The One Piece, the original episodes came out on a 4:3 aspect ratio, for old tube tvs, nowadays TVs are 16:9 for their aspect ratio, basically the first 300ish episodes are so old they have trouble running on modern television and look awkward so the reason for the update is partially so that new viewers can actually watch the beginning of the series
If you don't know anything about One Piece there is a 100% probability that you will forget all these facts before you've finished water 7 in 3-4 months.
one piece is your english teacher's favorite manga. one piece is every genre on literature ever made. a series about adventure, romance, fun, joy, loss, and inequality. the world building, power systems, story arcs, character writing, and drama, are all 10/10. saturday morning cartoons with a plot.
My recommendation for getting into One Piece is if you’re a manga reader in general just pick up the manga. If you are an anime watcher but the episode count is daunting then just wait for the remake. If you’re new to both mediums and just unsure try the live action
8:53 The term “Big 3” was a term coined for specifically the three largest long running anime/manga at the time; other manga could have gotten the title, but it didn’t quite fit all the criteria but also the fact that they defined an era. That is why I don’t think there is no modern day big three yet, and there probably won’t be for a while because modern shonen manga don’t fit that and definitely not 3 different manga.
The Big 3 is objective, you can't apply opinions on it, it's a title that was given to the 3 biggest shonen that kept Shonen Jump alive back then, so, it isn't even a title that means they were the best at the time
very enjoyable talk! but the OP nerd in me has to add some things Oda developed the basic idea for One Piece when he was about 10(ish), iirc while watching the anime Vicky the Viking. He further worked on the idea until he started the weekly publication of the series in his early/mid-20's in '97, publishing some oneshots on the way (the stories that still tie-in to OP Katie mentioned). It wasn't uncommon that he overworked himself (20h days, sleeping at his desk etc) [overworking is sadly quite prevolent and a very serious problem in japan in general, but especially for mangaka, because of the stress of the weekly publication cycle (the manga Bakuman by the Deathnote duo gives at least some insight to that)] until a couple years ago, when he started to take a 1week break after every 3 chapters. as others mentioned, The Breathtaking world of One Piece by Strawhat V was a great visual introduction into the world, before it was taken down. Luckily, there are reuploads, and Strawhat V has(or had) a download link in a community post on their channel. Oda writes amazing characters and themes. he also is a master in using designquirks of a location or character from hundreds of chapters ago and tie them into the current story - so much so that it is hard if not impossible for maybe even him to know what is/was foreshadowing and what is just amazing ability to adapt. The Whole Cake arc Katie mentioned for example was originally supposed to be some kind of short side-quest of 25-30 chapters but developed into a full-on main-quest of 80ish chapters because his creative juices just kept flowing. And since you guys talked about it, there are tons and tons of references, from really obvious to more obscure ones, to all kinds of fiction, popculture and history (the first real pirate reference happens as early as chapter 2) If you want to try it out, through the MangaPlus app (by Shueisha, the japanese publisher) you can read every chapter once for free - and in english (for all their manga on their platform as well) (apparently, yet again, I struggle to keep a comment in this context short - sorry for the rambling)
Listening to this as a fan I'm simultaneous grateful and also screaming at the expert. "Are there other groups of pirates?" "Well, for a while there was the Whitebeard pirates who were big..." I'm like... just give the overview of the power structure! Marines employed by the world government, which is an alliance of more than 170 nations. The World Government has given the equivalent to letters of marque to seven very dangerous pirates, who have agreed to by allies in exchange for not being hunted down anymore. And then there's also the four emperors, who are four major pirate crews that individually cannot fight the world government, but are their biggest headache because if they unite their powers, the World Government is going to struggle.. which is one of the primary motivators the WG had for employing those other pirates as it allowed them to use their resources against the big threats more effectively. There's so many layers of power and intrigue going on in One Piece, and all we get is "for a while, the Whitebeard pirates were pretty important"... gaaaah. All that said, we will be expecting you two who haven't experienced One Piece to get into it now. You were far too enthusiastic about all the nonsense you were hearing to NOT check it out properly.
I would definitely recommend watching one pace though it’s mostly sub. But it’s pacing is much better and is a basic copy of the manga and cuts out all that extra stuff.
Many people , like myself, fell in love with OP throught the live action and ended up watching the anime or reading the manga. As a anime watcher (bc I prefer the multiple elements of music, direction, and voice acting besides the visuals coming together in storytelling as opposed to just manga panels) I find that what the guest said about the manga pacing applies to the anime as well aka biging it makes the pacing look not so bad. If you skip intro-outro and "previously on" sections, you're left with about 15 minutes of episode. If a repeated scene as filler really bothers you, you can skip that also, although I haven't usually had that much trouble with that.
Roger never said it "I left it all in One Piece.". Roger said "You want my treasure? You can have it. I left it all there.". Mangs started in 1997 and the anime startet in 1999.
It is the same studio as Dragonball so it makes sense that there is so much fluff in it lol. From what I can find the manga is at 109 volumes. Luffy also doesn't want to be a hero because heros save and help other because they have to, Luffy help and save others because he want to and if he like the people and want to fight for them self.
8:33 3 things that for me set One Piece apart is the world building, the dedication to foreshadowing, and the treatment of side characters. 1) The world building adds more story/character developments and often calls back to previous arcs as news of world events spread. One Piece has arguably some of the best worldbuilding in fiction. 2) Oda's dedication to foreshadowing and callbacks to moments that didn't seem important at the time can and will literally occur hundreds of episodes in between. 3) The side characters are treated with care by Oda. Seemingly pointless or comic relief characters are no exception to this and you will occasionally find yourself asking "why am I crying over you?". Also the side characters that assist Monkey D Luffy, in this case his crew, rarely fade into the background after their "big moment" and continue to play an important role in future arcs.
Love the podcast, good luck to you guys. Just wanted to mention that the audio levels are really low. I had to max out the volume on my end to hear and I swapped between other channels to see if it was on my end.
They cast the lady from Sons of Anarchy/Married With Children/Smart House as Dr Kureha. I think she'll be great too Edit: her name is Katey Sagal. Lol I couldn't remember, had to look it up
There's a pacing issue, because the anime was reaching the manga. There are filler episodes and later in the series there is padding, but it's way to fun.
3:24 that's the old 4kids dub dialogue, haha! the one piece is the treasure, not "in one piece," that's on the dub & old viz manga translation based on the 4kids dub, lol. Or, it's more "in one place" according to FUNimation XD
Gotta say as a fan this was a disaster course full of unnecessary spoilers but I found it funny as hell. Seeing Katie just zip around to one major spoiler after another for no reason was like my add brother.
One Piece is like the combination of Saturday Morning Slapstick Comedy Cartoon, Pixar storytelling style, and old children fables into one world called One Piece verse
This is common misunderstanding, the big 3 are an era when one piece naruto and bleach dominated sales and discussion. the era ended, but a lot of people still try and recreate the dynamic of the era.
The funny thing is, especially now, everone will look at the amount of episodes and go thats too much One Piece. But if you catch up youre like theres not enough one piece
There are a little over 110 volumes (Books), each with an average of about 10-11 18=page long chapters each. You guys asked about the genre of the story; I've always found that "high epic fantasy" on the scale of TLOTR in both epicness, hrichness and history of the world, and lore. Matter of fact, I personally think it is the greatest epic ever told. Luffy is the embodiment of freedom and high EQ
I think the "fandom name" would just be The Strawhats like the name of the crew. Or maybe just "Nakama" which is a word they use in the show that means friend/colleague/loved one.
Don’t do One Pace. Yes it does cut stuff that the anime added, but it also cuts the good stuff that the anime added that actually enhances the manga content. One pace is not worth it. Pacing is an issue but if you fall in love with one piece anime, the pacing won’t feel like an issue. But I would recommend to wait for the one piece remake.
I watched one pace and they actually got better with that. For some huge moments i went back and watched the OG Episode, but one pace makes one piece super accessible and narratively doesn't change anything
I prefer reading the One Piece-manga, because it is the DIRECT unfiltered work by the Master Eiichiro Oda himself!! In general I prefer reading mangas, as they directly reflect the creators work and intention!! In some rare cases the anime might improve on the manga, but animes are just too loud and hectic for me with the constant screaming and flashy animation, so I enjoy my manga in quietude with a cup of tea!! 😁👍
Also, yall need to do a reaction video to Strawhat V’s video “The Breathtaking World of One Piece” No spoilers but it shows the world and scenery of One Piece. It’s incredible. Sadly they took down the original video for copyright but others have uploaded and reacted to it.
Any live-action of Avatar The Last Airbender is not recommended btw. Not unless you have actually watched the original show and are just watching the live-action for the memes😅 The success of One Piece live-action is super rare because rarely are the live-action adaptations of anime/manga done with any respect to the original work, or it's just done poorly overall. I personally have only seen 2 anime live-action adaptations that were done well where the fans actually enjoyed and respected them. Gintama and One Piece. There might have been more, but I have yet to see or hear of them.
watch the live action... it's not a bad start for experiencing one piece world... it's pretty good in summarizing arc before they enter the grandline... the live action is not bad at all..
> "Why is a dog also a gun?"
No! No. You don't understand! It's the GUN that is also a dog.
lol the Gun ate the Dof Gruit!

Spoiling One piece is very hard to do. People generally can't remember random facts about an even more random story.
Asking a One Piece fan to describe the series in a single sentence should be a illegal 🤣 that is just so hard to do.
The premise is fairly simple but what it really is, is like the entirety of human history and conflict wrapped up in a whimsical, political (racism/oppression/slavery/human trafficking), emotional, awful, tragic, hilarious, beautiful and heartfelt bubble, and the main cast is like the cast from Friends but instead of being confined to a couple of apartments, they are traversing an entire fictional planet's ocean in search of a grand treasure whilst encountering various islands with differing cultures and religions.

"one piece? Hol up lemme just spoil everything"
Love this!!😂❤
been seeing clips of this on tiktok, time to lock in and watch
As someone who watched one piece after having been spoiled for most things, it only helped my enjoyment
As someone who has never watched it none of this held and I don’t worry it will spoil it for us!
Always love how people get so hooked up on you a thousand episodes a thousand episodes oh my gosh it's a thousand episodes.
The Big 3 is objective, you can't apply opinions on it, it's a title that was given to the 3 biggest shonen that kept Shonen Jump alive back then, so, it isn't even a title that means they were the best at the time
At this point “the big 3” has become synonymous with “the best 3” and the OG ones are solidified, the new big 3 is objective though and up for debate.

Listening to this as a fan I'm simultaneous grateful and also screaming at the expert. "Are there other groups of pirates?" "Well, for a while there was the Whitebeard pirates who were big..." I'm like... just give the overview of the power structure! Marines employed by the world government, which is an alliance of more than 170 nations. The World Government has given the equivalent to letters of marque to seven very dangerous pirates, who have agreed to by allies in exchange for not being hunted down anymore. And then there's also the four emperors, who are four major pirate crews that individually cannot fight the world government, but are their biggest headache because if they unite their powers, the World Government is going to struggle.. which is one of the primary motivators the WG had for employing those other pirates as it allowed them to use their resources against the big threats more effectively. There's so many layers of power and intrigue going on in One Piece, and all we get is "for a while, the Whitebeard pirates were pretty important"... gaaaah.
All that said, we will be expecting you two who haven't experienced One Piece to get into it now. You were far too enthusiastic about all the nonsense you were hearing to NOT check it out properly.
We are definitely going to check it out. Every new fandom we learn about we end up consuming afterwards. This podcast is our gateway drug!
Man, what I wouldn’t give to be interviewed about ONE PIECE in this fashion.
I would definitely recommend watching one pace though it’s mostly sub. But it’s pacing is much better and is a basic copy of the manga and cuts out all that extra stuff.
17:21 but yes there is also Filler Episodes that arent in the Manga
I am so here for the Foxy love! One Piece gave us a Wacky Races arc and it's some of the funniest materials the series has ever come up with!
I enjoyed this one piece podcast. Subscribed
Another fun fact is that you canonically become/stay attractive if you follow your dream
She did a pretty good job explaining it
One pace is definitely the only way to watch the anime if you’re not already caught up
Katie living the dream of having dedicated time to initiate people to One Piece
15:46 Some people fall in love in Chapter 1!!!!
Many people , like myself, fell in love with OP throught the live action and ended up watching the anime or reading the manga. As a anime watcher (bc I prefer the multiple elements of music, direction, and voice acting besides the visuals coming together in storytelling as opposed to just manga panels) I find that what the guest said about the manga pacing applies to the anime as well aka biging it makes the pacing look not so bad. If you skip intro-outro and "previously on" sections, you're left with about 15 minutes of episode. If a repeated scene as filler really bothers you, you can skip that also, although I haven't usually had that much trouble with that.
Roger never said it "I left it all in One Piece.".
Roger said "You want my treasure? You can have it. I left it all there.".
Mangs started in 1997 and the anime startet in 1999.
Actually, the 4Kids dub said the former.
You can get a snipet of the anime if you see the video The breathtaking world of One Piece.
It is the same studio as Dragonball so it makes sense that there is so much fluff in it lol.
From what I can find the manga is at 109 volumes.
Luffy also doesn't want to be a hero because heros save and help other because they have to, Luffy help and save others because he want to and if he like the people and want to fight for them self.
"Over 70" it's a bit over 100.
How do we explain Vegapunk😅
the remake will significantly reduce the episode count we have to trudge through
What is one piece?..the greatest fucking work of fiction ever created..the end
Shonen r usually very emotional when they do it
8:33 3 things that for me set One Piece apart is the world building, the dedication to foreshadowing, and the treatment of side characters.
1) The world building adds more story/character developments and often calls back to previous arcs as news of world events spread. One Piece has arguably some of the best worldbuilding in fiction.
2) Oda's dedication to foreshadowing and callbacks to moments that didn't seem important at the time can and will literally occur hundreds of episodes in between.
3) The side characters are treated with care by Oda. Seemingly pointless or comic relief characters are no exception to this and you will occasionally find yourself asking "why am I crying over you?". Also the side characters that assist Monkey D Luffy, in this case his crew, rarely fade into the background after their "big moment" and continue to play an important role in future arcs.
Very funny podcast, and very cool representative of our fandom B)
@@LeGhostX thanks so much!
Love the podcast, good luck to you guys. Just wanted to mention that the audio levels are really low. I had to max out the volume on my end to hear and I swapped between other channels to see if it was on my end.
Thanks for the tips we will look into it!
Sanji doesn't have superpowers? Are you kidding?
They cast the lady from Sons of Anarchy/Married With Children/Smart House as Dr Kureha. I think she'll be great too
Edit: her name is Katey Sagal. Lol I couldn't remember, had to look it up
The one piece world is 20x bigger than the earth, thats why people havent found the one piece yet and islands prolly built like as big as australia
Manga started in 1997, anime in 1999.
I just wanna say, I loved the podcast, but the volume is SUPER quiet, I had to put it at way higher volume than normal for it to sound normal.
There's a pacing issue, because the anime was reaching the manga. There are filler episodes and later in the series there is padding, but it's way to fun.
49:51 Killer does have a devil’s fruit and can’t swim. It’s just an artificial smile fruit which didn’t have any power.
3:24 that's the old 4kids dub dialogue, haha!
the one piece is the treasure, not "in one piece," that's on the dub & old viz manga translation based on the 4kids dub, lol. Or, it's more "in one place" according to FUNimation XD
Gotta say as a fan this was a disaster course full of unnecessary spoilers but I found it funny as hell. Seeing Katie just zip around to one major spoiler after another for no reason was like my add brother.
One Piece is like the combination of Saturday Morning Slapstick Comedy Cartoon, Pixar storytelling style, and old children fables into one world called One Piece verse
This is common misunderstanding, the big 3 are an era when one piece naruto and bleach dominated sales and discussion. the era ended, but a lot of people still try and recreate the dynamic of the era.
The anime was released when I was born 😂😂
The funny thing is, especially now, everone will look at the amount of episodes and go thats too much One Piece. But if you catch up youre like theres not enough one piece
it's 110 Volumes at this point.
There are a little over 110 volumes (Books), each with an average of about 10-11 18=page long chapters each.
You guys asked about the genre of the story; I've always found that "high epic fantasy" on the scale of TLOTR in both epicness, hrichness and history of the world, and lore. Matter of fact, I personally think it is the greatest epic ever told.
Luffy is the embodiment of freedom and high EQ
Awsome podcast
Thank you 😊
Nawwww I was fully on board from episode 1.
What? We've already finished the Egghead arc and we are in Elbaf. Wano was a long time ago, not even the anime is in Wano for sometime now.
21:04 The closest thing I could think of is the Nakama but idk if that counts
Love @GrandLineReview 1:03:09 !!
I think the "fandom name" would just be The Strawhats like the name of the crew. Or maybe just "Nakama" which is a word they use in the show that means friend/colleague/loved one.
Actually, the One Piece fandom is known as the Grand Fleet.
1:00:35 preeeaaach LRLL is great in the manga
the 11 supernovas were luffy's fellow super rookies
Well Zoro and Luffy plus 9 more
Don’t do One Pace. Yes it does cut stuff that the anime added, but it also cuts the good stuff that the anime added that actually enhances the manga content. One pace is not worth it. Pacing is an issue but if you fall in love with one piece anime, the pacing won’t feel like an issue. But I would recommend to wait for the one piece remake.
Heard this from a lot of people! We may wait or just do the LA and then see how I feel about it all!
I watched one pace and they actually got better with that. For some huge moments i went back and watched the OG Episode, but one pace makes one piece super accessible and narratively doesn't change anything
@@FandomShowPodI bet if you see the Live Action, you'll try the anime to find out the differences.
I prefer reading the One Piece-manga, because it is the DIRECT unfiltered work by the Master Eiichiro Oda himself!! In general I prefer reading mangas, as they directly reflect the creators work and intention!! In some rare cases the anime might improve on the manga, but animes are just too loud and hectic for me with the constant screaming and flashy animation, so I enjoy my manga in quietude with a cup of tea!! 😁👍
One Piece is fun from the start but you’ll figure out how this story really is during Arlong Park
Also, yall need to do a reaction video to Strawhat V’s video “The Breathtaking World of One Piece”
No spoilers but it shows the world and scenery of One Piece.
It’s incredible. Sadly they took down the original video for copyright but others have uploaded and reacted to it.
Any live-action of Avatar The Last Airbender is not recommended btw. Not unless you have actually watched the original show and are just watching the live-action for the memes😅 The success of One Piece live-action is super rare because rarely are the live-action adaptations of anime/manga done with any respect to the original work, or it's just done poorly overall. I personally have only seen 2 anime live-action adaptations that were done well where the fans actually enjoyed and respected them. Gintama and One Piece. There might have been more, but I have yet to see or hear of them.
watch the live action... it's not a bad start for experiencing one piece world... it's pretty good in summarizing arc before they enter the grandline... the live action is not bad at all..
HUGE Spoiler warning
We updated the description to say Spoiler Alert! Thanks!
@@FandomShowPodlol
One Piece is the greatest story ever written by man or god.
