As a long time fan of the manga. It's a solid adaptation that made a few. Interesting changes. I mostly had a good time but I would have preferred it be just a tiny bit more faithful.

The live-action run added in a bunch of scenes with Helmeppo, Garp, and Koby. They're all super important characters but most of One Piece is about the Strawhats. Not the Marines. Having them around on a parallel adventure feels bizarre and at times out of place. Especially when to make room for them it seems like every single bad guy crew had their first mate cut. No Django, no Hachi, the Krieg Pirates skipped entirely.

Imagine like. Watching the Avengers but they cut Captain America from the script entirely and then used all of Cap's screentime to talk about the minutia of Stark Industries.

Your analogy doesn't work because Captain America is the face of the Avengers. That comparison would be akin to cutting Luffy.

Your comparison would only work comparing against another tertiary character (which wouldn't be the Avengers because in your comparison the Avengers are the Strawhats).
