    What bothers me most about the Chew fight is that they could’ve easily added the internal struggle in a few seconds. They could’ve had him try to sneak away then stop for a few seconds as he realizes what he’s doing and then turn back to finish the fight

    Agreed with most of the points on this, but imo the characters that were done the worst were Nojiko, Genzo, and the other members of Cocoyashi village. They completely got rid of the idea that they knew what Nami was doing for them and how the whole reason they've been enduring the past several years has just been in desire to see her smile again. And unlike the changes to Syrup village, you cant even argue that its for time constraints (maybe on the villagers knowing, but it wouldn't have added any time at all to at least make it so Nojiko knew). Like, while Usopp's best scenes weren't present, he still feels like Usopp. Nojiko and Genzo don't feel anything like themselves (except in the flashback).

    I think your feelings are valid and my theory is that many characters were botched in small but _important_ ways. And since every watcher has their faves it hurts them the most when it comes to _their_ favorite characters. I remember reading a Zoro fan stating that LA Zoro is an abomination because they took changes to his character closely. We Usopp fans can't be silent about his mistreatment and you being partial to Nojiko and Genzo were let down by their treatment. I most certainly can agree that they feel much worse and unimportant in this. And I missed Hachi very much =[

Maybe more realistic, but in anime and manga she really fought even for a bit, and then herself admitted she got 2 girls, while in live action if Arlong didn't notice the plates she would pretend she is here alone, and then she was just crying that she doesn't have more money.

Yaaay, we got unstable old guy who is doing weird thing for the sake of his grandson. The point of him throwing cannon balls was to show his strenghts, which is lost when instead of hundreds he just thrown one and it backfires right away. Why fight Luffy if he is just going to leave him be? there was a reason why he didn't (really) attack when he goes to talk to him in anime, and when he does attack in other situations, Luffy needs to run. Or the flashback scene, yeah he isn't a good parent/grandpa, but the "fist of love" is a joke not included in live action and he again looks more like insane marine. On one hand I know the live action doesn't have to give characters the same backstories and personalities, but neither Garp has any likeable traits, or is looking essential to the story because this one doesn't look like a type who was a friend with Roger. Oh, and they either will make another season worse by stealing screen-time again, or will be forgotten.

I get a lot of the time and budget means we can’t have many of the ridiculous and metal things that Zoro does, but why do they feel the need to tone down his emotions in the part of the story where he was the most lively?

    I as a Luffy stan don't really get why they gave him a sassy nature that trash talks. Like in the anime where he first meets Alvida he asks Coby "Who is this fat lady ?". He doesn't intentionally insult her , he is just being rude. But in the live action he straight mocks her. Or when Along comes out and mock Luffy for being small , he mocks him back. In manga and anime , all he does is answering a rhetorical question. "What's the difference between a fish man and a human?" "Nose". The sassy part is on nami where she pretends to act tough. In the live action she acts like "ugh I am so done with this". They don't ruin the characters but it's just a minor gripe that I have

    Honestly, I feel the same about the entire series. On surface level it looks like the original, but wherever you look for depth because you REALLY love that part, you won't find it. For me it started with Zoro's introduction : in the OG he and Luffy recognize qualities they admire in each other (Luffy's ambition, and Zoro's kindness and sense of justice) and because of that they decide to sail together. In the LA, they're forced together because plot, and Zoro decides that now he's following Luffy willingly in Syrup village, for no reason I could see. I hate it. Or in Nami's arc : the fact Nojiko didn't secretely know about Nami's deal with Arlong means she's just been hating her sister's gut for the last decade, instead of silently supporting her along with the whole village. The LA is full of things that happen because they're supposed to happen in the OG, but lost all their emotional weight.

    The problem is that Usopp's biggest trait is how much of a scaredy cat he is, but how he still stays and fights until he has at least given it his all. In the live action, during Syrup village, he just looks like a goofy comic relief with no skills or will to put himself out there and the only really positive thing you get from him, is how much he cares about Kaya, his friends and that he's a nice guy. Many people I've seen reacting to the live action with no prior knowledge of manga or anime, were indifferent about him compared to other characters they kept rooting for and this says a lot about how important those parts that were left out actually were.

    I admit Usopp didn't have the best adaption. However I think Koby had a great adaption. One of the things that annoys me about One Piece is that despite Koby starting off as one of the main supporting characters he quickly gets sided lined and the story barely ever goes back to his adventures. When I first watched One Piece I felt the series was building up to a final fight between Koby and Luffy, with Koby being the leader of the marines. I always felt Koby should have his own arc and gotten a devil fruit. Add least in this series it helps to give Koby more time to shine.

    The live action is extremely good on a surface level, but when we get down to details and in-depth stuff it's lacking. Some of their choices as to which moments to cut or change were baffling to me considering this is our introduction to the main characters and it should be important to get them right. Fans of the original might not even notice it that much because we have the context of the anime/manga, but people who get into one piece from the live action will have, in some ways, a crucially different understanding of the base of some characters.

Manga/anime Usopp knows Kaya doesn't seriously believe his tall tales. He just wanted to make her happy. That's adorable and makes manga Usopp endearing. If live-action Usopp seriously thought Kaya believed his stories, that makes him, to be blunt, pretty dang unlikeable.

But kuro gets the better of usopp and slashes his chest, usopp tries to shoot another smoke star but kuro dodges it. Just as kuro is gonna kill usopp, luffy punches kuro in the face, the fight between luffy and kuro is still the same but instead of being sent through the window, kuro slams into the wall, luffy celebrates. But kuro yells out to luffy, and just as kuro is about to get back up, usopp gets out is iconic Usopp Hammer to knock out kuro.(Almost everything afterwards is the same) Usopp now has cuts on his chest and kaya is naturally concern but he tries to play it off like it's nothing but zoro walks over and lightly taps usopp's chest and usopp groans.(Everything is mostly the same) During his fight with chew, usopp takes off his bandages to pretend to be dead and throws a bottle of alcohol at an unsuspecting chew's head. Chew says fishmen are fire proof, usopp says alcohol isn't, and shoots an exploding star.(And everything afterwards is the same) The End This isn't to discredit netflix, this is solely my personal opinion

    As a One Piece fan, I will say that I really did love the One Piece Live Action for being faithful to the original source material, and whenever there were changes made, they still retained the spirit of the franchise and characters. Still, I do agree with you that Usopp was done dirty for the reasons you have given. I won't blame Jacob for this of course because it wasn't his fault. I love that he is able to get Usopp's personality right. The character faults clearly come from the writing. I am glad that this series has been greenlit for a Season 2, which will cover Loguetown and the Alabasta Saga. I am also hoping that Usopp's character will shine which he never got in the first season. I've heard from some One Piece fans saying that they wouldn't mind if Little Garden gets omitted in the 2nd Season, but in my opinion, I disagree with this, and the main reason being that I see the arc as another good opportunity for Usopp's character to get some justice besides his later fight against Mr. 4 and Ms. Merry Christmas. I like Dorry and Broggy, but I also think that the fact that in the manga and anime, Usopp goes from being scared of them to admiring them after watching them fight. Not to mention that Usopp and Luffy are the only other crew members in that situation who are able to fight some of the members of Baroque Works. So I am with you that I hope that Usopp will get some justice in Season 2, which he unfortunately never got in season 1. The good news at least is that maybe he will get it since the Showrunner and Oda himself are willing to accept any genuine criticism from viewers and learn from them.

If it is like the original, the original exists...... If it isn't, make a new story. Especially if you are going to change key details that were in the original. That's why all adaptations get an automatic demerit. There's no reason for them to exist. Manga / light novel / novel to movie / show, sure I guess. Still is pointless, but motionless to motion is fun. My point still stands on it though. However, Live Action remake or adaptation of something that already is live action or animated? Just why? The only real argument for this I hear is "They are making it for a new audience", but.........why not do that with a new product that you have more creative control with?

It's a jump into a new medium that might be good but tends to end up poorly. Because you are right, "The original still exists", meaning that it can't escape the shadow of it and will always be compared.

    It's not just Usopp, the live action completely screwed the WHOLE Arlong Park arc (not to mention that cutting Krieg out of the baratie only to add him in another location is idiotic because it robs Sanji of HIS moment of realization). Don't forget that: -The village doesn't know about Nami's plan -Nojiko hates Nami and has tatoos for no reason apparently (she got them to help Nami feel better about her Arlong mark) -Garp was completely pointless and was the main reason there was no time to expand those core scenes -Arlong should have NEVER talked about the fishmen being slaves, it's not in character for him and ruins the crew's realization at Sabaody All in all, i went into this with low expectations and was still disappointed by the baratie and Arlong Park stuff. Mark my words this will be the next Witcher and will progressively get worse with each season

He makes a choice and was ready to go against entire staff in order to give Krieg food for his fleet. His conviction was on full display and no one can deny it. Similar to Usopp having to make a choice to re-engage with Chew since it was an option to get away but made a decision not to. Manga always makes characters to choose if they act on their beliefs or not and that's why we love and respect these characters.

    @@StanNotSoSaint probably just the whole crew can be added here XD Luffy is most like himself, but because of the lack of humor/inocence, he seems more stupid in a bad way (he let Zoro fight for his dream, but backtracked after Nami yelled at him for a bit. And even prompted, he never said he would die for his dream, which he did like in first episode of the anime???) And Nami herself... dunno, they made her a lot more empathetic (with Kaya and all) while everything around her seems less impactful? Death of her mom, and the rest that OP wrote of Arlong Park. Ussop an Sanji got probably the most cut content, but Zoro just... his actions seems off, without context. Being a cold killer isn't surprising, but I can't recall any selfless action made by him. Helping Nami and Luffy? He wanted to kill marines anyway. And then most if not all the fights he...was just there anyway, of course he fought, exception being Mihawk but still.

    What I also love about the anime, that they didn't put in the live action, is how Usopp punches Kuro and tries to warn Kaya in front of the butler himself. The kids also helped making me love Usopp because you see him through their eyes and he's a respectable person they trust and admire, not only that but he plays pirates with them as you said and that's why the "Captain Usopp". And the meaning behind the Arlong park fight with Chu...😭 I think those things should have stayed, because they show how despite his lies and his fears, he has still people who care about him and that he would die to protect. It's like they decided to give depth to everyone but Usopp. They didn't even show much of what he can do practically, even if maybe they needed to nerf him to show his later development. In that case I wouldn't complain. Though as you said, what it really felt like, was that everyone else was the protagonist of episodes 3 and 4, but Usopp. Everyone was better compared to their anime selves, but Usopp. It's not even the fact they had to make the arcs shorter, because all the other characters got amazing moments, even though those were reduced in number. It's literally how the showrunners got nothing of what made Usopp a great character in the manga/anime and I hope it's just me being skeptical, but could there be some bias involved? Since we're talking about Netflix... they had time to expand on Garp and Kobi, so I don't know why one of the main characters gets the shortest end of the stick. I love the live action, it was amazing from start to end, but Usopp has been the only one of the Straw Hats who has been neglected and I was disappointed, I saw reactions of the syrup village arc too and a few people who never saw or read One Piece were calling Usopp a "good for nothing", or "useless" and that shit hurt.

People who hate Usopp early in the anime/manga, is also because they see themselves in him and his/their own weaknesses somehow, while everyone else in One Piece is inspirational, strong and confident, so they don't make you frustrated with them.
