People picked to work on CB did'nt gave fucks, and were free to do what they wantedI am not super familiar with the source material but it’s leaps and bounds better than the Cowboy Bebop live action adaptation
It's actually a great live adaption of the source material. I watched first 3 episodes and I'm quite impressed with the detail, cast and translation of powers unto real actors and special effects.
They managed a fine line between being too goofy and still serious but at the same time, this is my main issue aswell.
One of the big qualities of One Piece were and still are it's over the top goofiness, graphic, cartoonish reactions and expressions. Like Sanjy when he's seeing a big titty lady, Luffy and Chopper reacting to a shitty robot etc. This won't translate and is mostly, sofar left out.
It's still very solid. Buggy and Kuno were excellent in their roles, Luffy is great, Zoro and Usopp are working for me too. Colby shines and only Garp seems a bit off.
I wonder how they want to tell the story tho, with their tempo, it will take another 25 years of production to get to the end.
I had no knowledge of the source material, and I fucking loved the entire series. I'm already looking forward to season 2. I will burn Netflix to the ground if they cancel it.
Fwiw I also really enjoyed Cowboy Bebop, so my opinion is apparently questionable at best. At least according to Sherdog.
No, that was all new to me as well. Probably why enjoyed it more than long time fans. Found it very entertaining.Bebop was meh to me but then again I watched the original. Exact opposite for One Piece, never saw the show before this. Were you an OG Bebop fan?

It's funny because there was a OP cosplay event yesterday. It's the most low effort of all cosplay theme. I feel bad for the kids with parents who grew up watching OP and being Luffy no. 34.3 episodes in
It's good as a OP live action can be, and for once does'nt show usual western "i will fix it" arrogance
Casting so far it's absolutely awesome, i was'nt sold at all only on Zoro, but he can act the part very well
Main actors are all very good at sell the right vibes, the thing that Oda was involved and the one who had last word must have worked great, even secondary characters have been pickd with great care
Attention to detail is pretty great
Only negative note i wish they went bit softer with hair dye colors, at times it work (example Zoro's green even looking fake feels normal) but in some other cases (Nami and even more Shanks) it make them feel like ridicolous cosplayers with cheap wigs... wich is bit a shame considering they made waaaaay more absurd stuff look "legit"
The episodes are well written, cover lot of the manga events with natural pace
Overall i'm loving it, would say 7 or 8 out 10
I would watch it from the beginning, but not the regular version. Watch the One Pace version which is the anime cut down to the manga. It's the best of both worlds and removes a lot of the filler. They have both subbed and dubbed, and you can find it here or just google One Pace.Much better than thought. Anyone know where to start watching the anime or when in the anime wpuld ot pick up from where the live action ended?
