Currently, One Piece---as a comic---is the 2nd best-selling in the world. A few years back it beat Batman and has been closing in on Superman ever since. The Live Action has been SUPER helpful for the series. Although I'm not going to get into it here, One Piece has had a rough reputation in the West because of a really rough beginning that turned into a slow recovery. Such a spectacular project with so many devoted fans on the team has been great for reintroductions as well as new first impressions. Eiichiro Oda, the author for ~26 years *straight* (remember that there were huge pauses between Dragon Ball Z, GT, & Super) was very hands-on with the production. Cooperative with the writing team who made changes to shorten the first few arcs into 8 episodes, and almost magic with choosing the perfect actors for every role. And I do mean EVERY role. There's a lot of behind the scenes with the longtime voice actors meeting with the live action actors and them connecting over the characters. Although I may come back with more specific recommendations when you finish, there is a remake anime in the works. It might be something to look forward to if you don't want to commit to 1100 episodes (as of this post). Happy sailing!

There are currently 1101 One Piece episode, at that same rate that's 590 in the "kai" version. But even if they go even faster than DB Kai (which is gonna be hard because One Piece has ten times more dialogue than DBZ, and you can't really cut that), remember that the OP anime is far from over. We've got two big arcs left in the manga, that's like 200 chapters at least, so 250 anime episodes at least (probably closer to 300), so the final episode count will be something like 1400, which means that to get to 600 for the new anime, you'd need to go 2.33 times faster. They're not gonna go any faster than that, not with a manga as dense as One Piece. This isn't Chainsaw Man where chapters are short and often have little dialogue so you can adapt 3.5 chapter per episode, that's impossible to do for One Piece. They can't even do what they did with Death Note which had tons of dialogue, but a lot of it was tense reaction face with no action going around and characters talking at the speed of light (pun intended). One Piece has everything, a lot of dialogue, ton of set pieces, a lot of action, even with good pacing this is easily 600 episodes.

You prolly know this (?) but the creator of One Piece was a huge fan of Dragon Ball growing up, so there's a lotta general inspiration taken from it ^^ (It's also inspired by a show called Vicky the Viking, but I feel you prolly don't know it) In the Japanese dub of the L.A. they actually got most of the anime voice actors to reprise their roles for the characters- some of them share VAs with Dragon Ball characters too (most famously Luffy is Krillin, Zoro is Piccolo, and Buggy is Pilaf)

First chapter came out 1997 and latest chapter released is chapter 1111 actually. The latest volume released was 108. It’s still absolutely amazing and the story is nearing its end. Really happy to see you enjoy it and hope you become one piece fans 😊

I like your réaction so much spécialy the guy + yup mackenyu the one who acted zoro is suuuper handsom ❤

Finally been wanting one piece content for a while😁

Its not that it didn't blow it. It did, but has been a while since it released. Those that wanted to watch and those curious at the time, have already seen it. Its a very good live action. The live action has so many references that one piece fans can see and enjoy, but not needed for new watchers. Plus, the live action has the benefit of having a ton of story ahead of it and can put into the earlier parts. Thats not to say the manga/anime's beginning is lacking, but the live action makes it more meaty with a lot more of the world realized. The thing they may struggle with is the size differences between some of the characters. Some one piece characters are huge(but not giants), much bigger than the normal sized human. Do wonder how they will handle that

As a MASSIVE fan of One Piece, it makes me super happy that you guys are starting this series. While I do prefer the original, I think the live action is a great adaptation. If you two enjoy this adaptation enough, maybe consider reacting to the original anime. 1000+ episodes may sound daunting, but it’s worth it.

Morgan said that it's a week in the yard for attacking a Marine, what they didn't say was that he was being charged for attacking four or five Marines which means four to five weeks in the yard. There's no guarantee that they would have given them water either with how tyrannical Axehand Morgan was. 3 hours without shelter, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food, only by sheer willpower with Zoro have survived which is why the spoiled son was so sure he was going to die.

Of all the people who have reacted to this, you're the first I've seen who Immediately knew that Nami was after the uniform. Well done!

The One Piece Live Action is one of the, if not the, best Live Action adaptations. The success blew away every expectations people had, good and bad. When it came out, people were saying it broke the curse of Live Action adaptations that has been bad for decades. I can't wait to watch your journey through this show you will have a great time.

The guy who casted the main roles is actually the guy who writes the manga

As someone who has watched (Both Dub & Sub) and read the entire story. This is a great reinactment. While not completely accurate as you would expect. I was like I'm revisiting my favourite Shounen as modern interpretation. Plus, with the familiar enough energy of the anime, combined with 'Pirates of The Caribbean' like vibe. It's feels unique as well.

As of now there are currently 1112 manga chapters and 1100 anime episodes....the author of One Piece Eiichiro Oda said that he plan to finish the manga within a few more years. The anime has been airing since 1999 but the manga has been around since 1997. I think you should react to the breathtaking world of One Piece by Strawhat V to get a point of view of the anime.

This is probably the most well-received live-action version of an anime. No seriously. There have been a lot of live-action adaptations in the past for a bunch of anime, but most of the reception are either very mixed or very, very poor. But One Piece broke the preconception of live-action being bad. The anime itself is of course a much more different experience, that does take a big commitment to get through, but thankfully this live-action version became a gateway for newcomers.

@@AlexGamingAlexGaming02I got to that point quicker than anyone should have, but I still enjoyed it. If I would recommend one piece to anyone, I would go with reading the manga since it’s an easier read. Or if they want to go with the anime, I would say to go at the rate you are comfortable with, so don’t try to speed running through it just to get caught up.

you are both in for a treat.

The Game of Thrones TV show lasted about 10 years. Expect this to be about that long, maybe more.

Word of advice- Remember the name Gold Roger, the guy who got executed at the beginning of the episode. I only say this because sometimes reactors tend to forget who he is, and his story is kind of important to the series.

Huge One Piece fan so looking forward to this 😊 Their all amazing characters

fun reaction!~ saw you guys pop up and saw One Piece and i was like o.o so it finally begins!~ lol

Even if it's different from the manga/anime, it's still pretty faithful to the source material and still brings in some new things making it pretty refreshing.

i'm glad that you two are enjoying the One Piece live action. I hope you two enjoy the journey of One Piece alot more than me and the rest of the One Piece fans did.

I don't know about that. The fan reception that I've seen has been pretty positive. Admittedly it's been more popular with general audiences, but I think overall, the fans love it, even if it does have a fair amount of inconsistencies.

@@grandpagohan1 yes, there's changes than what it is in the anime. But they adapting it from the manga side and Oda himself (the creator of One Piece) aproved the changes and i don't mind the changes at all, i don't really see it ruined the show for new comers of One Piece at all

We got another crewmate !!! I am soooo ready to join the journey!❤️Welcome onboard

A couple things: 1) in your editing your missing important lines such as Zoro saying his dream is to be the greatest swordsman (or Luffy saying he ate a Devil fruit called the Gum Gum fruit). One of the main themes is what the characters dreams are. 2) In japan names are listed with last names first so Luffy is Luffy D. Monkey and Zoro is Zoro's first name. 3) If you blink you will miss the only mention of Axe Hand's son's name in this series. It is Helmepo.

I've waited ages for this.

Y’all the best reactors for the live!!!

The Live Serie have been surprisingly huge and a big deal . I mean fans knew it had a huge budget and investment , but as usual most of us waited for it with a cynical "another trash anime adaptation" outlook . in the end it was pretty well received among fandom , and making waves among the mainstream non anime ones . It broke a few Netflix records previously set by Wednesday and Stranger Things , and reigned for a long while in its top 10 . You might also have noticed a big influx of reactions around it from all kind of streamers and youtube channels , not just anime centric ones . It was big , just not i guess , in your social circles

Perfect shanks

Its so crazy how you guys got the gist of these characters just from episode 1 😂

4:58 Ok, now this is important. You hear that song they're playing in the background while Shanks stitches Luffy up? In this world it's an old song that pirates used to sing all the time. We hear it much much later in the story and Luffy comments that Shanks used to sing it. We won't hear the words till much later in this show. Here is the full instrumental version of that song that they were playing in this scene, it's a nice addition to the world building by having us hear it now rather than in a few seasons when we get the full impact of it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJeGtsNvZbKcYcY.html If you want to learn the words but without any spoilers, there's plenty of covers. It's called Binks's Brew.

2:20 I think the name of Alvida's ship is 'Miss Love Duck'

OH GOD THEY'RE TRYING THE GOAT SHONEN THAT EVER EXISTED

Lesss goooo!! Super excited for the series... One piece is a really really great show. I'm 💯 sure you guys will love it.

You guys should watch the breathtaking world of one piece it’s a great video without any spoilers and is a good introduction to the show
