It looks like One Piece is going to be released as a live action series, premiering on Netflix at the end of August.
What are everyone's thoughts? I'm not normally big on live action adaptations nor am I super invested in One Piece, but I'm curious what everyone here thinks!
Sorry about the title of the thread - it should read series!

I’m not usually too big on live actions either and I’m definitely not invested in One Piece either.. but it looks pretty entertaining. I wouldn’t be too hyped to see it in theaters, but it’s definitely something I’d stream if it came out on a streaming platform. It looks entertaining for sure!
Edit: I was typing as I was watching and saw the Netflix at the end!
What's my definition of success?
Creating something no one else can
Being brave enough to dream big
Grindin' when you're told to just quit
Giving more when you got nothin' left

It’s definitely giving me the streaming vibe too. All I remember from the little I watched is the name Luffy and that Zoro has 4 swords. I’d enjoy seeing what the anime is actually about.
It seems like a lot of slightly older anime’s are making a comeback these days, or is it just me not being aware of them?
I watched like the first season of One Piece and since the story is sooooo long and complex, I think this live action adaptation will be ok. You can't possibly hit all of the major plot points from the series so I think going in with low expectations and thinking more of it's basic general overview of the series will make it ok. Doesn't look too bad imo and I like how they're portraying Zoro at least in the trailer 🤷*♀️

The trailer actually looks pretty good!
Having only watched a few episodes (I think all of season 1) I don't have a great grasp of everything in the show!
But when I read the topic discussion I was thinking... is this gonna ruin the show for me? But I'm actually surprised!
Definitely going to keep my eyes out for this! It looks good!

mane... im gonna be honest as much as i love certain live action: personally thought ghost in the shell was gucci... *cowboy bebop* was not. i may give this a try since i liked the first couple seasons of one piece but i do not have my hopes high for this. netflix likes to F things up.

as a big one piece fan, i cant say i am particularly excited about this live-series. first of all, it's not in japanese!! cant trust it if it's not in jap! and secondly, the manga/anime series has done way too good for it to be converted into a live-series. feels like it's just gonna be a cash-grab kind of series. there's not much point converting it into a live-series in all honesty.
but when it's out, i'll give it a chance and watch it!

No offense but usually the western take on anime live action kinda ruin it entirely like the dragonball live action. Unless its a japanese live action i doubt i will be watching it haha ( thou not all japan live action are nice). Ronin Kenshin live action is a really good one thou xD
