@MetaMario I meant Mr. 9.
As you can tell by the terrible spelling of that post, I was on my phone and the phone was not helping.

ohhh that makes way more sense lol, thought i missed some sbs.
Inaki visiting Shueisha. He's such a likable dude.
I think this is the first time I've ever seen those offices. Damn, Bakuman nailed the look!
@Md-Martin I still treasure the hell out of Bakuman. Crazy that Platinum End was the follow-up.

I didn't care for it but it ran for 6 years and a dozen volumes.
It was at least moderately successful even if its the weakest of their collabs
Bakuman's always going to be special to me though.
Bakuman got just a little in your face about burning your entire life away in an industry that has high risk and barely rewards you for success though.
Platinum end was a mess, the new comedy manga just isn't that great. Not to downplay the mastery that the duo has on their craft but Death Note was leagues above anything after.
now this is interesting. it looks like they nailed bellemere's hair.
at first i thought they'd put kid usopp with kid luffy but those are two different scenes lol
Whenever I see Banchina's name, it's odd because I rarely see it. Her name's been around for over 1000 chapters and I know the name of Sanji, Nami, and Robin's mothers more.
@Cockycent
I think she's only in the one chapter for just a few panels. Olvia and Sora are both in more chapters and Sora's name is easy to remember since it coincides with the Vinsmoke comic.
wow I won't even be able to remember her name at gunpoint I just remember her as Usopp's mum but I can mention Zeff, Bellemere, Sora, and Koushirou off the bat. Okay maybe I lied about Koushiro (it's just Zoro's teacher in my mind) but you get the point.
I hope many of us will agree in the end!

"The requirement for choosing a Straw Hat crewmate is not strength. Luffy knows what is important. I used to think it was impossible to make a live-action, but with today's technology, it can be done. We must express the cruelty of the wide ocean.
We just have to aim for an unprecedented blockbuster hit. Believe in the story. Focus on whether it is interesting rather than on film technique. There is a trust between me and my fans, and I can't lie to them. You can't call something interesting if it isn't interesting. It lacks power and interest. It's not inspiring at all because it's not well prepared. First-time viewers won't find it appealing as it is now. There could be the worst case scenario. "
All the kid actors will be competing to outdo each other in traumatic flashbacks. Usopp and Zoro's flashbacks are just awkward. Dad abandoning him and Zoro's friend dying from falling down the steps.
I'd easily put Nami and Sanji over Luffys'.

"Hey guys, Oda here. So there is a good chance this show sucks and flops, but please watch it anyway. Bye!"
I'll give them 3 episodes: if there is anything to keep me interested beyond them I'll watch it all. If there's nothing for me there in 3h, then it's over.
The closer the release date gets, the more excited I am. I don't need it to be amazing/the best thing ever. I just want to have a good time.
@FatDogForMidTerms You have been consistently sounding so fucking smug and condescending about this show, man. I don't know if you're aware of that.

Just having a bit fun at the expense of awkward promo material! :)
Sure, smug fun, but fun nonethless.
Tbh, I have complimented some stuff also!

I don't know, it's hard to explain lol. It feels kinda desperate, but that could be just the vibes i get because i don't believe that the show succeeds.
But let me tell you, all that OMG ALL THE ACTORS ARE LIKE THEIR SW ROLES THIS ISN'T AN ENGINEERED PR STUNT NO WAY stuff has been really unintentionally comical.
Guy who has never seen oscar winning actors pretend to be die-hard marvel fans at comic cons.
People understand if live action isn't for you. But I'd avoid being the RomanMack for the live action series if you can help it.

Oh, that's funny too. It's so transparent.
We have an instrumental!
I'm kind of bummed because the site I saw it own advertised it as the "opening" when it's clearly not that but... hey, music.
I like what I'm hearing!
@Robby The composer stated that it’s the theme of Roger’s execution! I’m really excited to hear the rest of the soundtrack.
Sounds great! The very end has a slight touch of whimsical. Hope there is more of that and they did not go all-in on epic pirate music.
Must sayy that we are so close now that I would have expected some more marketing and info drops
A friend of mine got to see the live action series. Not a One Piece fan but says it's surprisingly good and for what it's worth say's not a live action Cow Boy Bebop. I don't know what that means.
I'm hopeful.
Nothing against Oda, but I don't really factor ratings, reviews, or the messaging/marketing from creatives involved. Just the trailer and the 1st episodes to see if its worth continuing. Just as much as anything else, i'll be fair.
Somebody on reddit (who visually legitimized his claim) has access to the show and said it was good. He’s on episode 4.
@Kaiolino Did he post any detailed impressions? Link please?

I am greatly looking forward to this.
All the Reddit posts are gone, any reason why?

Netflix nuked them.
03:13 Aww Usopp and Nami holding hands! I always loved their relationship as the two "normal" people on the crew.
This honestly looks so good to me. Even if there will turn out to be some flaws, I'm honestly amazed that they seem to have managed to create an adaptation that actually captures the look and feel of the original East Blue saga so well. I hope so much that they will be rewarded for their efforts with a second season order!
Looks promising love how i like all 5 characters in these scenes

Oh God, Netflix keeps releasing these low effort posters on Twitter.
