"People’s Dreams... Have No Ends"
Shoutouts to Luffy's actor in the live action show. I always found Goku and his successors kind of cringey and annoying overtime but he gives Luffy a sense of charisma and charm that makes him fun to watch.
It's similar to Chris Evans portrayal of Captain America. Steve can be hokey but Evans avoids that.

Luffy punches through spikes and gets hit by them..I kinda miss that.Toning down superman didn't end well for me.So i hope that doesn't happen.Oda calls luffy a man of action.i was afraid luffy would start giving speeches on dreams,truth and justice to please the American audiences whom can't see beyond hero,antihero and villain boxes.
"People’s Dreams... Have No Ends"
This gets a good review here. I agree that one of the big things that could be improved is the odd cinematography choices sometimes, especially the over use of fish eye lens.

What are some of the funniest moments in the anime to all. One to me is when they're trying to save Robin and Zorro runs off the wrong way and Nami asks Chopper to make a potion to fix Zorros brain but Sanji might be beyond hope of Choppers help.
Just finished. Loved it. Never saw the anime, but this felt like they got it right. Like all the characters and actors.
Never watched the anime for this. I must confess I watched the first episode of it and it did not grab me. Too much anime shrieking with repeated mouths open a mile wide.
I like the live show better. Weird, I know.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Long time One Piece fan here. Just finished watching the first live action season the other day. And I'm delightfully surprised that I loved it.
For the longest time I thought that One Piece was too grand and too cartoony to really get right in live action. But they've done a really good job of compressing roughly the first 100 chapters into 8 episodes.
There's lots of clever changes to the plot and character writing to make it work for the live action medium. But it managed to keep the spirit of the original series.
Love the amount of practical effects and settings. They managed to make Luffy's gum gum powers look alright. And holy shit the sea beast from Luffy's flashback is one of the coolest CGI-effects I've seen in ages.
And I have nothing but praise for the cast. Special mentions to Jeff Ward as Buggy, Alexander Maniatis as Captain Kuro, Steven John Ward as Mihawk, Vincent Regan as Garp, and Inaki Godoy as Luffy. I was really impressed by how Inaki captured Luffy's body language.
It's not perfect. And it's a bit weird in places. And it'll never really match the original in my eyes. But this is a worthy adaptation of one of the world's greatest adventure series. Really looking forward to season 2.
On a real woman, I don't think Nami's outfit here is so bad for someone in warm weather. The skirt doesn't have to be shorter than the skirt she wore in season one and the actress isn't going to be busting out of it like in the anime. There's a version of that outfit that can work, imo.
