BAFTA is the last organization I’d expect to post a video discussing the live action One piece.

Honestly I could watch the behind the scenes making of this show for hours. You could tell everyone worked so hard on it from sets to props to outfits. Even though he wasn’t mentioned here, everything involved with the character Kuro was amazing. I wonder if the actor, the prop and costume makers had a field day working together to make him come to life.

It's a pity they couldn't use Emily Rudd's natural hair. She actually looks a lot more like "adult" Nami than pre time skip Nami. Her natural hair is really beautiful and it's unbelievable similar to Nami's hair. I have infinite respect for the people who pulled this off. You can feel how much love, passion and hardwork went into this adaptation.

many people criticize luffy shoes but i think for safety reason, the legendary san D als will become shoes

I'd really love to see an interview centered around the snail phones. How were they created, can we get a look inside of them as they are operated, how about the other unique new varieties the show added, etc. These cute things that became little eldritch horrors in the live action really made the show stand out for me as a fan!

The shoe-with-sandal-markings worked so much better on-screen than I expected it to. It's such a clever compromise.

They did such an amazing job!!!! I can tell those people are very passionate about their job. As a long term One Piece fan, I feel so grateful to have these people in our crew! Watching the live action felt magical. Oda's world is magical. I'm so thankful. Thank you!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

so much more thought went into this than people realize. also i love how Buggy's nose is true to his character where when facing forward it looks like a classic foam clown nose, but when viewed from the side it becomes clear that it's his actual nose! lol.

I was pleasantly surprised to see so many South African supporting actors and production people in this series. A personal favourite is Celeste Loots who played Kaya so well. Great job guys. From a Joburger.

The amount of passion oozing out of every behind-the-scenes clip of this show is just incredible. Everything from the perfectly casted Strawhats to the makeup and costume design, just incredible.

I am not into anime and knew nothing about one piece. After watching the entire show in two days all I’ve done is consume behind the scenes and watching videos about the anime. What a fantastic show and brilliant actor’s. I might have had a slight tear when I saw the announcement of series 2, fantastic news!! :)

Buggy was so great. It was done beautifully from the nose to costumes to everything.

I feel so grateful to these people for being able to capture the feel of One Piece so masterfully. They truly are the biggest reason why this show is so good!!

@Dancingpinata-

10 ай бұрын

Thankfully, Smoker (and every other Logia) can follow the pre-established filming model for Buggy. Most Logia users while in their element mode basically look like disembodied heads/parts mixed with that element- or in other words kinda like Buggy but with their element in between. Likewise both smoke (for Smoker) and fire (for Ace) are cgi effects that have been in use for a very long time- meaning that the artists working on these effects will all have experience in it so it should look good! I do agree that some of the devil fruits (like Robin's) will be a lot more intense to recreate. I'm also super curious how they'll do Chopper because a full-face latex mask would be very difficult+taxing on a child actor, but a main character having a full face of cgi would also be expensive and likely hard to pull off!

4:11 share this to the people who often asking why luffy wear shoes.

I never watched the original anime and only read a couple volumes as a kid so I'm no OP expert, but I'm absolutely enamoured with this adaptation. Could seriously watch a whole multi hour docuseries of how the cast and crew brought everything to life, costumes, set, casting, everything. Every little decision made. It's such a huge undertaking to adapt anime/manga to live action and there have been so many terrible western adaptations, but I am absolutely blown away by One Piece. You can just tell how much love and care everyone who worked on the show put into this. I can't imagine how much it means to long term fans of the series. Just phenomenal work!

Excellent job! Watching the series was a treat. What I also liked about Buggy's face paint is that his smile looks like he just smeared blood from his enemies on his face.

Props to all hardworking people behind OPLA, Thank you so much

I see leaked behind the scenes for most characters, Buggy and Luffy had too much fun, the entire cast felt like a family. And then how each handled touching moments on shooting. I think they did not just pick actors, they found the right people to represent each. And then to get such dedicated and talented costume, make up, and cgi artists, this show was a recipe of success. Even the detail of tinting the sky with gold for a sunrise to enhance the beauty contrasted to the Merry... i can not wait but will happily wait for season 2

Colour Walk!!!! She mentioned Colour Walk!!! Damn no wonder this live action is a big success. Everyone who was involved here respect Oda's original work to the highest degree. Kudos.

When talent and dedication meets the results shouldn't be surprising, what an incredible job all the people involved in the series have done. I can't wait to see how they tackle the challenges on season 2 (I don't believe Netflix to be so clueless as to cancel the miracle of a show this is).

Besides the cast is so perfect. They have a very professional team behind the scenes too ❤🎉

I'm a huge One Piece fan and watching the live action adaptation, it just felt like it fitted perfectly with the Anime and the Manga. One of my favourite characters in the whole book series is Buggy and I adore the live action adaptation! Jeff suited the character so perfectly, the way that he played him was exactly how I imagined it should have been played, slightly deranged and super narcissistic. The costuming for Buggy was absolutely gorgeous, it was colourful, bright but also very him!

I love how passionate the crew is for the show, I feel like that makes a difference!

Thankyou all for your hardwork for bringing our beloved one piece characters to life .. cg vfx costume and makeup plus many more.. i hope w the positive reviews and love opla is getting u all can pat yr self on the back!

still cant get over Nojiko and Kuina's wig, they look like cosplay in the middle of the rest of the cast with perfect hair & makeup.
