An animatronic puppet Baby Yoda-like would be the right choice (cute and perfect for merchandise). When he fights obviously the use the CGI.

@Barkworm said in Season 1 General Discussion:

Whatever happened to Dragon, by the way? Wasn't his casting announced a while ago?

The actor said in his IG account that his part has been cut.

Season 2 is official!

An interesting interview to the producers 'bout the series and future seasons.

This article says the numbers are not so good. But, hey, I WANT TO BELIEVE!

https://www.whats-on-netflix.com/news/netflix-top-10-report-virgin-river-top-boy-one-piece-dear-child/

The show now is first in only 37 countries. Not a good sign. Let's hope and see what happens.

@Riddler said in Season 2 (and Beyond?) Speculation Thread (Spoilers):

I mean, how do you keep viewers when all episodes are available from Day 1? I don't really get how this system is supposed to work. Like, if one hundred people are interested in One Piece, and 80 of them are so damn interested, they are gonna watch it in the first week it's available, then there will be only 20 people left to watch it in Week 2. Seems more like a downside of airing the whole season at once, if you ask me? Does anybody have the numbers on big hits like Wednesday in that regard? How did that one change from week to week

Wednesday was first in top 10 for at least one month (Stranger Things season 4 too). But these are their Monster shows. The Witcher Season 3 is going worse than One Piece but It got renewed. Thursday Netflix will publish the new hours and visualization of the second week and we'll know better how it Is going.

Despite the good reviews and a solid start, it seems the shows is losing viewers...

And today in the US is third. Not a good sign...

I hope It goes better worldwide (in Italy it remains first).

@Johnny-B-Decent said in "One Piece Odyssey" trademark registered by Shueisha and Bandai Namco:

They also needed to add Skypiea into this game. With so much focus on the Sky Islands, not having it felt really like a missed opportunity.

Well, It seems they did it with the new DLC (or with Ener, at least).

Oda thanks italian fans at Napoli Comicon!

Italy here. We're a bit confused 'bout the streaming rights. If they're owned exclusively by Crunchyroll we can't watch the show dubbed (because here Crunchyroll has adopted the "no dub" policy). Ok for the current simulcast of Wano arc but the entirely previous arcs aren't dubbed. Meanwhile we have Mediaset, who ownes the television rights but can't stream the dubbed episodes. So My question is: does Crunchyroll have the exclusive streaming rights in Europe? Or we can hope in other streaming services like Netflix in a near future for the dubbed episodes?

I hope they will not delay this series again due to the recent IATSE strike…

@dropper:

With the success of the recent Dragon Ball Super film and Stampede I can see Toei rushing to get more films out, especially after Demon Slayer's phenomenal box office.

So Dragon Ball Super in 2022, and potentially One Piece in 2022? I'm going to guess One Piece will release late into 2022, if it does.

DB in summer, OP in Christmas. They can fit on the same year.

I hope Oda's alright. This break is extremely worrying me about his health conditions.

Guys, i hope Oda is alright :( If it's confirmed, the 2 weeks break worries me and I'm afraid for his health.

It seems in the next months a lot of Netflix shows are going to get canceled, due to the growing budget for the Covid measures (they've already canceled I'm Not Okay With This). I hope it's not this case. Fingers crossed.

@Gia:

Why say this with no source? Your Twitter link has nothing to do with that at all

Edit: Read the OP Magazine thread, Scotch already confirmed 2 week delays for Magazine 10. Very likely volume 97 and Color Walk 10 has the same delay

I'm Sorry, man. My Twitter source says they removed OP Magazine fron the schedule buy there are no official sources that confirm It all. So let's wait for upcoming news.

@RoboBlue:

Japan's struggling with COVID again, I assume we'll see more delays over the next few weeks.

I don't think that. One Punch Man, Boruto and Boku no Hero Academia are still scheduled.

@Captain:

When was that stated? I must have missed the update.

Extremely worrying if true. Something must have gone horribly wrong somewhere in the production line.

Has anyone spotted any other scheduled releases being effected?

I've ready this tweet:

The magazine Is now infinitely delayed. We have only the Digital release of volume 97 scheduled in october.

I think they postponed casting calls due to the situation in South Africa (where they'll start shooting).
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jul/23/south-africa-sees-60-spike-in-excess-deaths-suggesting-high-covid-19-toll

@Jaime:

Didn't South Africa start to open up just recently?

Yep, but it seems there are a lot of new cases: https://ewn.co.za/2020/06/15/massive-jump-in-infections-pushes-sa-over-70-000-cases

Due to the recent masive jump in covid infections in South Africa, I think the shoots may be delayed again. So I don't expect any news about casting for now.

I think they'll find young and not well known actors to play the main characters, with "big names" for supporting and guest roles (like Shanks, Roger, Garp, ecc.).
Can't wait to find the results of the casting call (this month, right?).

@StuckWithInsomniac:

Steven Maeda is now caught up to the manga.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CAq8KtBpBg0/?igshid=zpzjycq3pzb0

Woah, i like he's read the entire Oden's flashback. It means he knows the Laugh Tale name and other details before they start shooting the series. Well done.

Unfortunately in Italy we haven't a Netflix page yet :( I don't think it will be available on June for us.

I've watched the first episodes of Snowpiercer and the VFX effects are not impressive (look at the cgi of the train). I hope they will really have more budget for One Piece and not something like CW series.

@Raydjahs:

From Worstgen Forum (by Kalimoxto) :

Eddie Bonin is the Visual Effects Executive in his IMDb.

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BYjlmMDUxZGQtYjM4Yy00NDdmLTk2ZDktZDJhNTg2Mjk3N2U0XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTg1ODM1MTI@.V1_SY1000_CR0,0,574,1000_AL.jpg

It seems he had a solid filmography. I like VFX in other series, except Legion CGI but i hope there will be more budget here.

So after the next chapter, he's going on hiatus due to reorganize his work? Or he's talking about future multiple breaks in the magazine?

@Sengokusgoat:

I guess racial-casting might be warranted for some of them since it fits them. Usopp being black, Sanji white, Zoro asian. Nami and specially Luffy could go a number of ways and the rest probably won't show up in the first season.

Searching for specific nationalities would be pretty absurd though.

Agreed. It's less complicated searching for them in this way.

I hope they're searching the actors with nationalities suggested by Oda in the SBS:
Luffy (Brazil)
Zoro (Japan)
Nami (Sweden)
Usopp (Africa)
Sanji (France)
Robin (Russia)
Franky (USA)
Well, Chopper and Brook are from Canada and Austria but CGI will provide.

In Italy next 19th March in 3 editions too:
https://www.amazon.it/One-Piece-Stampede-Steelbook-Collectors/dp/B081VXZ37H/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_it_IT=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=one+piece+stampede&qid=1574951846&sr=8-1
I've already ordered the steelbook edition :ninja:

@gyuukarubi:

• Ace in Sabo’s flame. Does this mean that Devil Fruit users who die live on in the fruit that returns? Did Sabo kill Festa?

No, it's due to Ann's powers. She can create optical illusions of photos or drawings and Sabo asks her if she can reproduce Ace a few moments ago.

Sawn in Italy today. The character design was EPIC! Better than other OP movies, although Strong World and Z are still my favourite ones.
Wikipedia says that the movie earned $ 83.6 milions, so soon or later it will pass Z soon becoming the highest grossing OP movie of all time. Is it legit or they are giving fake numbers?

Naito: "Oda, WTF. You said OP will finish in 5 years!"
Oda: "yep, 5 years in the OP current timeline."
Naito: "oh, you…"
large laugh of random sit-com

Oda: OP is 50% completed. It will finish in 10 years.
10 years later.
Oda: OP is 70-80% completed. It will finish in 5 years.
Oooook, suuuure.

Nakaba, you magnificent troll king
So…

! Timeskip is coming?

Well, Ann could create illusions of Roger and other pirates, due to her fruit abilities.

Interesting that Sanji is without moustache and beard (but probably it's due to an Oda's mistake, like some pages on the manga).

Agree. Unfortunately the administrators of that page say it's true and they reject to deny it :getlost:

So an Italian facebook group has reported a Naito interview (but i didn't find anything about this on other forums or sites, nor i haven't read posts of redon and sandman) and it will be probably fake. I've translated it (sorry for my poor English, i hope it's understandable).

-Wano will be "the biggest One Piece saga", in terms of lenght and plot development.
-Naito says many mighty characters will appear soon, as "the sleeping world legend", who he talked about in a precedent interview.

• Oda says 2019 will be "Zoro's year".
• Naito says Oda calls him at pgone very rarely, and sometimes he's worried Oda works too hard, but he'satisfied about his work.
• Naito says Oda's working many hours at day, and he reduced his rest by only 2 hours ad day . When he says him to repose, Oda always says "it's stronger than me, i need the result of my work will be amazing"
• Naito talks about the Stampede movie. he says "the movie will introduce a dangerous and mighty enemy, comparable to an admiral or Dragon". He also says there will be some familiar characters, not only the Mugiwaras.
• The editor reveals Oda's favourite food is chicken yakisoba and umeboshi, and he also likes sashimi cooked by his wife at home, and he offers it at Japanese dubbers of Mugiwaras

Crossover with Trigun confirmed.

Excuse me, guys, it will be available only in US? Or in Europe too?
'Cause i can't download the Shonen Jump Manga Reader App in Italy.

Hello everyone. I've heard that Star Comics in Italy is going to publish the first quiz book at the end of this month. It's hilarious that some Italian fanboys are disappointed about this book (one poor Italian youtuber thinks that nobody knows Greg and the Italian fanbase is better than others).
As Italian I'm tired of these brainless fanboys and I'm going to buy it, hoping they will publish the second volume too. Can't wait to read the Greg section :)

@ScotchInformer:

According to Preview WSJ #50:

-We have a lot of information about Anime ! maybe about Film !

[qimg]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dq9hvuhWoAAjiQ_.jpg[/qimg]

Well, any news about this?

So Onigashima is an island of Wano Kingdom or far away from it? :wassat:

Strong World and Z were good, Gold was half-disappointing in my opinion (Sabo, Lucci and Spandam put there at random). Hope this will be better than the previous one.

So, "things are advancing" :ninja:

Sorry guys, I've heard some opposite views 'round the web and i want to figure out it: is there an Oda involvement on this game? Like the design of villain he did for Unlimited World Red or else.
