    Dedicated and great actors + realistic changes of the story = 10 stars for me

    I am a big One Piece fan for like 15 years now. I read the manga and watch the anime. This Live-action is so good not just because I am a fan of One Piece but because the story was changed in a realistic way and you can see the dedications of the actors in portraying their characters. Oda-sensei had a lot of breaks because he got too busy for the premier of this Live-action and I feel so happy that I could see how he really supported this. I have seen a lot of vlogs today from nonfans of One Piece and they got hooked on the story which made them curious of the anime and manga. I am just happy to see them starting to appreciate the story. You know, good things should be shared and appreciated.

    Promising Beginnings

    Having just watched the first episode of One Piece on Netflix, I must say that it left a positive impression. The initial episode managed to capture my interest with its engaging plot and intriguing world-building.

    The storytelling in episode 1 was well-crafted, drawing viewers into the adventures of the characters. The introduction of the main characters and their motivations was executed effectively, making them relatable and worth investing in. The balance between introducing the main plot and providing glimpses of the larger story arc was commendable.

    One particular highlight was the way the episode established the unique dynamics among the characters, setting the stage for future interactions and growth. The pacing felt appropriate, allowing for a gradual immersion into the world of One Piece without overwhelming the audience with too much information.

    As the first episode concluded on a tantalizing note, it's natural to wonder what lies ahead in the upcoming episodes. The plot has laid the groundwork for exciting developments and potential twists. I'm eager to see how the characters' journeys unfold, the challenges they'll face, and the alliances they'll forge.

    While it's too early to provide an all-encompassing judgment, the initial episode has undoubtedly set a promising tone. The series has the potential to delve deeper into character development, action sequences, and unraveling mysteries, all of which contribute to a well-rounded viewing experience.

    In anticipation of the next episode, my hope is that the momentum built in the pilot continues to build, keeping the intrigue alive and maintaining the standard of storytelling that was showcased in episode 1.

    In conclusion, the first episode of One Piece on Netflix has generated a strong sense of anticipation for what's to come. The foundation has been laid for an exciting journey, and I'm looking forward to experiencing the unfolding narrative as the series progresses.

    Better that the anime

    This episode is by far better that the anime beginnings. I had a hard time watching the anime at first because the first 80 episodes are childish and slow paced. This episode had it's funny moments but also is very well paced, serious and has good actions sequences. I think it can attract a lot of people that have never been able to get through the first episodes of the anime. Special effects are very decent. Soundtrack is great. Loving this show so far and I hope it doesn't get the cowboy bebop treatment. Netflix tends to cut their shows really quickly, hopefully they can figure out a way to bring this show on par with the lengthy anime/manga series. I wanted to keep the review shorter but "requirements". Enjoy the show peeps!

    One Piece was once thought impossible to adapt. Maeda and Owens have proved everyone wrong. Might be too early in to claim that, but I'm risking it. They have managed to create a very vivid and surreal world pretty faithful to the original manga. Of course it has its differences, but they are worthy of Eichiiro Oda's masterpiece. Godoy, Mackenyu and Rudd shine as Luffy, Zoro and Nami, exceptionally charming in their own rights. All the other actors are very good too. I'd only complain a bit about some fight choreographies, but not even the majority of them. Thanks Enel for this! Pretty excited to watch the remaining 7 episodes.

    Simply amazing

    Ok I am a huge fan. But they have done so good to adapt it to live action! It has never been done before with such success on any anime/manga series.

    The fight scenes 10/10 The actors 10/10 The cinematics 10/10

    Just finished the first episode and wow! Made be shed a tear out of pure joy and hype!

    Yes, a few differences, but they have been done so good it actually compliments the storyline further with such grave you will think it has always been there!

    To anyone that hates on this - I cannot understand you. They have literally given us all a pure joy ride done magnificently well!

    Thank you, cast! Thank you Netflix. Thank you Goda-sensei!
