There are a few changes I wasn't really a fan of, but overall, I thought the live action was great. I think the anime is better, but I really like how the live action is getting a lot more people into One Piece in general.

Isnt there tons more material in the anime though? Someone said it could take at least 10 years just for the live action to catch up to where the anime is. And that's assuming netflix gives this show enough seasons

I would say the Netflix show does about as good a job translating One Piece to live action as could possibly be expected.

Yes, there are adaptational changes, but I think they're more than justified.

Take Luffy for example. He's definitely different than his anime/manga portrayal; that's because Luffy barreling around from room to room, bellowing all his lines, would be extremely obnoxious in live action in a way that it just isn't in a cartoon. Instead, they capitalized on the "luffy is supposed to be easy to like" angle, and gave him an effortless, easygoing charm that works much better with the actor they chose.

Other changes, like Garp and the marine subplot, are in service to that fact that 1000+ episodes of live action is absolutely absurd, and the series is going to have to end a lot faster than the anime. Things have to happen faster or out of order, others have to be cut, and let's be real, nobody actually gives a shit about Don Krieg in that arc.

It's pretty fun, I like how they incorporated smaller future references like Bink's Sake in the background during the Shanks flashbacks. Or how Arlong Park kinda resembles an amusement park, which has its own implications.

Only cut content that might be problematic for the future was Hatchan being cut from Arlong Park. He's gonna come back way later down the line in a fairly important role character-wise for a few characters. I guess it'd be hard to have him fight Zoro because Zoro was definitely killing all the Fishmen he fought, but they should've incorporated him somehow.

Also the biggest issue with the live action is that they're never gonna adapt the whole story, and you're insane if you think the show's gonna get that far. The actors are gonna be like 50-60 by the time the series would end, let alone any older actors. I expect them to at least get maybe 4 sagas in, but that's it. I'll eat my words if they somehow do it, but I might be gone from old age by then. So far, they've been really keen on building actual sets for everything, but all the effects and sets mean that every season takes a ton of work.

I could lowkey see them ending it after Alabasta with an alternate live action only ending or something. There just isnt any way this is realistically sustainable. I could also see them skipping straight to Water 7/Enies Lobby after Alabasta and just skipping Jaya/Skypeia. I know those are important arcs, but theyve gotta get a move on

The live action exceeded all of my expectations by a really long shot.

They somehow kept the spirit of the show and the characters without making it *too* anime and without cheapening it for fans.

I don't exactly know how they managed to do that. Like Usopp doesn't act or look like the manga/anime version, and yet you still 100% believe that it's Usopp in real life.

They did an insanely good job adapting it.

Now that I think about it, did anything actually important to the long term plot happen in skypeia? That entire arc felt like a filler somehow. I liked it a lot but I can't remember if there were any long lasting consequences.

In terms of what you might be missing, One Piece is genuinely the funniest and most heartstring tugging show out there, and that only happens once you've invested into it. Like the show makes you cry at some ridiculous stuff while laughing at the same time, not many shows in any genre can do that.

Not really. I would argue it is by far the least important arc in the series

Im watching season 1 of the live action now. Its much better than I ever expected it to be (I dont see the point of live action anime adaptations period, as the entire appeal of animation as a medium is that it lets you do things live action simply cannot).

But it still pales in comparison to actual One Piece. I doubt the live action will ever get to the high point arcs like Water 7 / Ernies Lobby, much less where were currently at now, and if they do, the actors will be geriatrics.

That's a dirty lie. It's the first arc that really shows Luffy's dedication to his friends and unwillingness to quit, his grit vs kreig's weapons. In the next arc, we would see this fact that came to light tested hard; how far would he go for a crew member?

Also it properly shows Sanji's arc from holding back to pursuing his dream, in the la he just kind of joined

It sets up a lot of lore that becomes VERY relevant much later in the series, but honestly, there are other ways they can set that stuff up.

The Davy Back Fight could also be skipped.

If it wasn't for Brook's introduction and recruitment, maybe Thriller Bark as well.

Blackbeard's first appearance, Going Merry's spirit, first actual mention of observation Haki, potential hints at Nika, and Roger hearing the poneglyphs.

Plus how much weight does Robin leaving hold if they go directly from Alabasta to Water 7? She's had no bonding time with the crew in that instance.

Also without the spirit appearance the going merry's sacrifice at the end of Enies Lobby just comes out of nowhere. You also lose the dials Nami and Usopp use and the money for ship repairs

Considering they already set up Binks Sake in the flashbacks with Shanks they might skip Thriller Bark. Besides Brook joining nothing really important happens save for Zoro taking Luffys pain at the end, and that can easily be slipped into another arc. If they do choose to do Thriller Bark, I cant see it being more than 2 episodes at most. The crew exploring a haunted castle would not work for an entire season

Best way to describe the live action version is that it's "One Piece Abridged". You still get the same basic story, but in a much faster-paced and filler-free format. The trade-off is that you lose a lot of stuff from the original for the sake of that faster pace and the limitations of live-action compared to animation.

there's foreshadowing lore stuff, but for the most part its role is that it's basically a miniature version of the overall series' story. In a way it's the most One Piece arc there is

And by your own admission, the very next arc accomplished the exact same thing, with more narrative weight and nuance between other characters.

That's the entire point: if a story like One Piece has any PRAYER of being adapted, they should not waste time re-emphasizing the same point over and over and over and over. Arlong Park accomplished the same goal, more comprehensively, in one swoop. Cur the spare.

Let's be honest, he more or less "just joined" in the anime, too. Don Krieg had basically nothing to do with it, other than his first mate giving Sanji a chance to show his quality early on. The arc is just a round and round of Luffy asking Sanji to join, he says no, Zeff tells him to join, he says no, all in a circle for like 20 episodes and then he says yes. There was no need to beleaguer the point: sanji needs to move on from the past and pursue his actual dream. Boom. Done.

Nah, you need to demonstrate the connection before you can test it, see. Also, it really hamstrings Sanji's arc.
You're remembering incorrectly if you don't recall how Sanji himself questioned Luffy why he didn't just give up on his dreams, it's so easy. It's him comparing himself to Luffy, who becomes a visible example of not giving up on one's dreams no matter how hard it gets. Through fighting together, Sanji connects with him, and realizes that pursuing your dream can still involve protecting what you care about. In particular, it's when Luffy says that Zeff didn't save his life just for him to throw it away that opens his eyes.

I think Robin also realizes in Skypeia that deciding to join the Straw Hat crew is the way she's going to realize her goal of investigating the void century for herself. There's no way she would have been able to read the poneglyph or what the words I'm assuming Oden inscribed on the great belfry for Roger if she hadn't joined them.

Watch to the very end of the Water 7 saga and you'll be OK. There's a pretty big spoiler that the anime reveals right after Enies Lobby. The live action spoiler is much earlier.

As a huge one piece fan that was so sure that this live action idea would be the goofiest and most terrible looking shit ever, I was legit impressed with the work they did with the netflix live action adaption. Like these people are actual one piece fans and really cared.

I'm actually thinking about buying blu-rays for the live action series to go alongside my anime collection sets if the live action ever got/did get a physical release.

No way in shit could the live action actually replace the manga and anime adaptions, but its a pretty cool supplement type of thing that can be enjoyed on it's own.

  • The existence of sky islands being confirmed is important to the long term plot. The only other sky islands we've seen so far are Weatheria and the Labostratum above Egghead.
  • The fact that there was a poneglyph in the grand belfry was hugely important to the plot. Robin was able to read the poneglyph and also find out that Gol D. Roger had some words inscribed in the same ancient language on the belfry itself. I think Oden might have done this.
  • Usopp traded dials for rubber bands and uses them in arcs after Skypeia
  • Eneru went to the moon after he was defeated in Skypeia. This hasn't been covered at all in the anime, but in the manga, he finds space pirates and a group of robots called Automata. Eneru powers up the Automata with his devil fruit powers in addition to powering up their city. He finds a mural that seems to depict the mother flame among other things.
  • Observation haki is detailed for the first time
  • It is revealed that the land and animals in the Upper Yard came from the blue sea by way of a knock up stream. In addition to the golden bell being up there, this confirmed the story Noland was accused of lying about and was executed for.

The biggest issue with skipping the Skypeia Saga in general is that one of the series' primary antagonists, Blackbeard, is formally introduced there. I guess you could move it over to Alabasta or Water 7, probably the former because Water 7 is a pretty crowded arc already, and they're spending two seasons on the Baroque Works stuff. Also the Dials are a significant power-up to Usopp and Nami's skillsets.

I was in the middle of watching through the anime when the live action came out. I think up to Dressrosa at the time it was announced? So I wasn't going to stop and go watch the live action.

I haven't really felt an urge to go watch it after the fact, considering it took me literal years just to get up through the Wano arc where I stopped for now. I'm not against watching it but I also just don't feel the need.

I feel like just because some important stuff happen in an arc, that doesnt mean the arc cant be skipped. Take whats important and distribute it amongst other arcs. For example, the Blackbeard confrontation can happen on the way to water 7, it doesnt have to happen at the entrance to skypia

however due to the qty of important stuff in skypia, particularly Robin bonding with the crew, I dunno how you can skip it. You can at least shorten it

Off screening Don Krieg (although technically it was on screen, just as a sidenote and not a full arc) was the biggest sin imo, I love Don Krieg. I love seeing Luffy for the first time struggle, but show that ultimately his vast assortment of weapons doesn't mean shit against Luffy's unshakable determination.
