"You don't develop an accent" According to my speech therapist, you can. Appareantly, due to me speaking as much english as I do, I developed an "english" accent while speaking german. And it is honestly noticable when I focus on it.

I love how calm these dudes are, they are so chill

After seeing this adaptation I caught up to present day with the manga and anime, and I'm in my 60s. It's great 🖖😎👍

The Baroque Works is a set up for season 2 which is confirmed.

not to spoil anything but: after shanks, luffy goes to live somewhere else with an unruly group (not pirates) it not revealed until later on in the story but it explains the change of accent as someone else raised him

I'm only 2 minutes into the post-episode discussion and this is already one of the most in-depth analyses I've seen of One Piece. Taking notes, breaking down characters, informed speculation. Instant sub!

Nice catch on Nami surviving because she landed on Luffy. A LOT of people missed that.😂

Several things: One Piece has few filler episodes, around 80-90 episodes. The main problem is more the progress of certain episodes of the anime. And there are "movies" that group together the important episodes of an arc so you can watch that to save time. Very good reaction too.

First reactors to mention the birds clothes and stuff, i dont know how people miss that 😂

Well, there is actually a project that cuts all the filler the show has. It is called One Pace (it's a fan project tho) ;)

As a fan of the Manga and Anime. This Live Action was done AWESOMELY! They had the input of the creator in all aspects and it SHOWS! Amazing job and fun show that catches the spirit of One Piece no doubt. This can be your first. Don't worry!

One Piece has a lot of wordplay. Think "Cell Phone"... "Shell Phone"...

I only knew it had pirates so when he started stretching I was like wtf he's stretchy?

ngl i was hating on one piece bc of how long it was. but one day i pressed randomizer on netflix and it put on one piece😭. i had been saying at that time i wanted a long anime since i finished naruto 2 years before that. now one piece will never be topped for me

One piece is a manga, not just an anime. Just let you guys know. No time to watch ?, You can read it 😉

one piece is like wine, its getting better over the seasons

Hi guys! So I really loved this video, and I just want to say, looking at the comments, there seem to be some negative reactions. Comments like “it doesn’t look like a reaction video, it looks like two people studying for an exam”. I can understand that some people might not like this style of video, and that’s totally respectable, I just want to throw in a counter balance that I actually really love this kind of video. Please don’t feel like you need to fake or exaggerate your reactions and do a big crazy face anytime something cool happens on screen. I love having these kinds of videos where there is a large discussion at the end, you guys are clearly paying attention. I personally really dislike videos that consist of only a “reaction” portion and very little actual discussion, so while not everybody may like this style, please just keep doing what you’re doing and the people who your content does appeal to will come. Keep up the great work, much love.

Do you guys. You can start at the live action. I started my journey in year 2000. What an adventure. This live action is just beautiful.

41:00 they're not on planet earth its a world full of islands with many different cultures and eras of technology

Luffy doesn't want Alvida's ship because, well one it's on fire and two he can't trust the crew. Luffy has an innate ability to choose his friends/crew who are good inside and will be loyal.

32:00 Yes, the corniness absolutely works in this show's favor. Something that gave a lot of fans pause when we heard One Piece was being done in live action is that One Piece is a capital C 'Cartoon'. Not just the medium in which it's created, but the laws of physics, the worldbuilding, the reality itself. It's like Looney Toons, but with genuine fantasy worldbuilding and geopolitics. Everything about One Piece is cartoonish and exagggerated, which is a really difficult thing to pull off in live action. This adaptation leans into that cheesy/corny factor instead of trying to apologize for or hide it, which really saves it from A: feeling like it's trying to hard and B: losing the spirit of the original. It knows it's kinda goofy, and it leans into that goof instead of trying to avoid it, which is why it works so well.

One Piece is a triving world. It is alive, they have governements, they have countries which have their own culture, and all of them are cohesive with eqch other. The whole onepiece world is moving independently from the strawhats. While the main characters are having their own adventure, the rest of the world are javing their own lives as well. That's the beauty of One Piece, you will be immersed with the world. You will feel like you are part of that world.

cant wait for the next one. i was around 6-8 in the late 90s/00s when one piece started airing on tv and ive been following it ever since. this live action is the most spectacular thing to me❤

It has out sold Spiderman and Batman leaving Superman above it. It has out sold Harry Potter. It has been renew season 2. There is so much lord and world building. I have always watch and read the manga when comes out. If you want see a bit more the world there a video called The Breathtaking World Of One Piece.

It is a well written adaptation. People that don't know the source material or about anime, love it. The ones over thinking it are those who already know, fans. Which is fair everyone is scarred by live action adaptations.

I disagree that this isn't a good introduction. I think this was made for new ppl, esp with how streamlined this is, and I appreciate how it's more faithful to the manga over the anime. It gives more foundation/foreshadowing of certain main storyline points that Oda has a much more clear vision of now compared to when the series first started 20 years ago too. The manga/anime is more exploratory and the pacing can feel a lot slower. I believe less than 100 eps are actual filler (srry, guys). My rating for OPLA overall is 8.7. I think it worked for the medium it used, it holds a lot of respect and love for the original source, and it tells the story it needed to tell pretty well in just 8 episodes. There are even a couple aspects I like better here than how the manga/anime did it (similar to how I like certain aspects of the anime better but the manga will always be my #1 medium). For example, the fight between Mr. 7 and Zoro was only a throwaway line in the manga. The live does have quite a bit I can nitpick, like with how some plot is set up, the delivery of some parts, even some of the pacing and cgi, and missing bits/interpretations I felt should've been included, but overall, I think this works well to bring new ppl into the series. I still highly rec reading the manga, if nothing else. The chapters are really easy to get through and it'll be where all the canon story will be told (except for a small handful of the movies).

Honestly, what the heck is up with some of these negative, mean comments? Calm the F down, it's literally just two dudes watching a tv series and giving their opinions. As for people mocking the live action, everything went through the original author, Oda, so if he said green light it most probably fits in the OP world. Not to mention that when he started writing the manga he was about 19-20 years old. Even he knows that there are loopholes and questionable parts. It is what it is, nothing is perfect and it's impossible to include every single detail, the actors would grow old. I enjoyed it and made me wanna check out the source material (and I currently actually am watching the anime) As Zoro said: Don't like what your're seeing? Look away"

If you enjoyed Star Wars not just for its science fiction, its interesting battles, but because of the sense of adventure, the heart and soul of a character, the trial and tribulations of a character, and the tremendous world building of what the Jedi and Sith plays to the universe and philosophy (Yang and Yin respectively). Then I think you will enjoy One Piece. The plot is different, the style is somewhat different (though One Piece would be one world where Chewbacca would fit in fine), and the philosophy is not quite the same though many values do overlap. But there is one thing I feel both Lucas's world and Oda's world have similarity and that is heart. Hope you enjoy the world. It is a huge one and you are just starting off with the crew in season 1.

Cant wait to see your reaction to the rest of the season! It's a blast! :)

You guy are missing out a lot by just taking notes. Try letting the story take you in, and you’ll see the characters’ emotions, expressions, symbols, and key moments

I truly cannot emphasize how much I appreciate the decision to not even mention the snails are phones. It's like such a power move to make your audience just accept it. lmfao

One piece no filler project is called OnePace. Worth it

There is a great fan-made condensed version of the anime. It’s called One Pace So when are you starting? 😂

Oda himself [the manga author] said he wanted to make a live action to attract non manga fans and the general public to the story of one piece! so ya its a great entry point most fans will nit pick always i mean i see that star wars shirt haha so i know ya know what beloved franchise turn fans into sometimes haha. the series is fun adventurous and complements the source material cant wait for more of your thought on the later eps this was a fun watch

just found you guys and in the least dramatic way possible, i love you.

This Live Action is more based by manga

Great review, awesome insight. ❤

Just wanted to give a second endorsement to the One Pace project. They actually have been editing the anime on the principle of matching the original manga as much as possible, so you can watch it without missing any of the core story. I think they have completed about 75-80% of the episodes at this point, with a number of individual arcs being finished. So, its not a perfect solution, but believe me, it beats sitting through 5 minutes of recap and episodes that are 90% filler with 10% actual story mixed in (that only really starts to happen much later in the anime though). Definitely check them out if your have any interest in watching the anime.

One Piece has sold around 500 million copies. Superman has sold about ~600 million copies since his first appearance in 1938(85 years). One Piece first appeared in July 1997 (26 years). It's crazy. The answers to your question will be answered in time. Hopefully you will have smooth sailing across the Sea of Spoilers...

41:00 baseball caps and flint lock pistol with Sailing ship and glitter balls. The best I can say is just roll with it.

this world is 90 % ocean thus the marines is the authoritative force

you are rolling in for an upcoming roller coaster FEELS. One Piece has deeper stories than other shows. Live Action Season 1 is like 8% of the world. You will see more mysteries of the map, mysteries of the government. Mysteries of islands.

You guys are very observant and intelligent! I'm excited to see your predictions with the release of future reactions.

I'm 70. I could never get into the anime One Piece because the drawing isn't appealing to me. And I like the little "darker" animes. I just love this One Piece live-action! I've watched all of Season 1 and can't wait till Season 2!

45:00 I can’t answer those questions for spoilers reasons. Heheh

17 year long fan of one piece this is the best live action adaptation out there im 27 now

You can watch only the live action if you guys want to, that's the point of making live action, it's to tell the story in a different format, plus it's pretty much the same as seasonal anime. Although it's an abridged version so they altered the story a lot, they still kept the main story which is pretty much the same exact experience

Don't know what those people were on about, the series turned out great and it's a great intro for newbies!

Oh Yes! This will be good

lol everyone who has seen dragonball evolution has been scarred for life

I've read the manga and watched the Anime and I think it's good. My family and friends on the other hand who have not watch the anime or read the manga loved it. So much so that they keep on asking me various stuff about the world particularly the snails. 😄😆😅 I'm like the One Piece wiki now at home.

Gotta say. As a 15 year long fan I 100% disagree with whoever told you not to let this be your first experience. I will be suggesting this before either anime or manga as a newcomer's first for now on. This is a great adaptation and is 100% fully supported as your first time or even only way you experience one piece from my pov. And again, 15 year long fan with multiple reads of the manga and at least 2 runs through the anime. I consider it an equal adaptation to the anime, and even more accurate in a couple places.

I feel like this is manga accurate, because when I watched it, I immediately remembered important parts of the manga and anime that I had read and watched when I was a kid. I've watched all 8 episodes. Only if you say it's better than the manga, no it's not. If you say it's worse, no, it's not. You can't compare them because they have their own interests. So far, this is number 2 the best. Number 1 is still Alice in Borderland Live action netflix series. and number 3, Rurouni kenshin movie 1-5.

I've got good news for you, but you've likely already read the same thing 79 times, every episode is better than the one before it! From start to finish, One Piece is solid! This show sticks the landing. I cannot wait for season 2. Nice reaction. I can't wait to see your next upload =)

You say you know, but not all powers come from Devil Fruits in this series. There are others. The third live action ep villain merely uses a technique. The people in this world are naturally superhuman degree in terms of stats, with the potential to grow beyond human limits. And... well, Luffy's mentor uses something that isn't a devil fruit. Heck, in the anime, the mentioned power his mentor has wasn't even revealed until not long before the series' time skip, called Haki. ...but yeah, Devil Fruits are notable throughout the whole series. They're rare outside the Grand Line, but in it? Whole 'nother matter.

Great reaction

Damn there is quite a few spoilers in the comments. Sad to see. Hope it doesnt spoil it for you guys. I really enjoyed this live action take.

A lot easter eggs from manga to future seasons

Liked and subscribed, loved the content

You guys caught so many details for a first watch! I think it’s great that you guys are taking notes and asking such great questions! Totally get that 1000 episodes is daunting. I think the LA adaption did a good job of condensing the OG material, and also ending the season in a good place in case another season never happened, as I think most (not all, but most) of the questions you raised or discussions you had are resolved within this same season. Recently, a season 2 was greenlit and announced as well. Great that you guys are a fan of the anime style flashbacks that flesh out the story because that’s a OP staple and the LA does a great job of tying them into the current story. In the anime, the snail phones are telepathic and had attached receivers, so I think it was supposed to be less ‘murmurs’ and the actual voices came out of the snail mouth itself or something, so I think you’re right that we already knew about the map, so there was no point to listen in for that scene. 😅 Excited to see your reactions to the rest of this season! Thanks for posting!!

Yep! you are 100% right, the voice in the intro is indeed the actor in john Wick (Winston). He also played black beard in Pirates of the Caribbean so that was a good catch. I look forward to seeing more of your reactions.

i like that it turns into podcast after the reaction. why in the world is this just 2.65k sub chl

i think it's interesting that everyone kinda have different accents in this series, like garp's scottish(?), and then koby's kinda british, luffy's kinda mexican, zoro also has very slight accent, i think it adds to the 'mish-mash of everything' theme in this universe

Let's goooo hahaha! Edit 1: Yes this is my bible Edit 2: I first watched the anime in 2015 in my early teens. I'm now in my early 20s still in love reading the manga weekly

*Avoid spoilers.*

Nice shirt “ the empire strikes back” is my favorite movie. 8:15 if you watch it as Arcs (aka seasons) ONE PIECE at a time and STRECH it out over years. You will have endless content. Hehe (puns intended) 11:15 you are correct

Hear me out. Maybe not everyone can relate to the comparison I'm going to make. How does anyone have the argument that the series is too long and that's why they never start. Every story or movie I really loved I've always wanted more... with one piece ,yes it's a long story but once you understand it and that switch flicks in your brain, you get it and want no need more. It's like a drug almost you get used to having it around so abundantly then you catch up to the manga and bam your plug is gone 😢

Actually it’s a good way to start with the live action for One Piece. 😊

One Piece is Wonderful

start 8:50〜

Was very skeptical about this but I gotta admit, they did their best. This is probably the best anime adaptation. The characters are also done nicely. Some great some decent. As an OP fan, I'd rate this around 7. I guess you guys can tell ho great the anime is if the live action is this good. Two big cons which lowered the rating for me were: 1. Although they say the budget was high, some sets were too small and camera angles seemed claustrophobic. 2. Some major changes were done to the story which I didn't like.

Never seen the shell-phones in Spongebob? This where they ripped them from.

Captain Morgan's son reminds me of Draco Malfoy.. from the accent, long blond hair to the bitchy attitude, the "my father blablabla" it's all really Malfoy

As a huge fan who started a little late, around 2010, i will say One Piece is a drug. It is addicting and for some people life changing. And the Live action is a great gateway drug. I loved it!

Helmeppo reminds me of two people. Drago Malfoy and that Targarian guy from Game of Thrones that dies pretty quickly. I can't remember his name, though😂

7:00 You can completely ignore those pessimists. That was preconceived biases that has since been proven wrong by how great the series turned out. Enjoy it, it's a perfect entry point into the story.

You guys have some great conclusions on devil fruit read the manga

Never underestimate sword when hold it u should prepared to cut down ur enemy.

I just found your Channel I enjoyed your reaction a lot so I subscribed, I love the live action as much as the Anime but I never read the manga sadly. I hope we get season 2 and for it to be amazing and the actors and actresses played really amazingly when I watched the live action for the first time from first to last episode I was emotional I laughed and cried it was so good.

Whatever you do, do NOT google One Piece if you're planning to watch the anime in the future. You'll get spoiled. And recently, theres a "huge" event going on and its a major spoiler. Not gonna say what but be aware please. Would hate it if you got spoiled like many others including me in the past getting spoiled by absolute zero IQ moron fans(yes, there are some "fans" out there who purposely spoil $hit especially if you're some kind of content creator..they're not really fans, just children).

There is one sorta stunt actor, actually. The guy who makes Zoro, Mackenyu, is a very famous Japanese actor. I think he was the only one who didn't audition. He is very good on his role, though, so it clearly was justified.

If you're not subscribed to the Blake and Jeff show you know you gotta go

To be precise in comic book's is number 2 in the world and caughing up on superman number 1 in the world, one pice sell's 6x more than superman per year

Good news to you they doing a remake of one loice anime it will much shorter because they don't have the problem of caughing manga

U mean viceras from got

U said 1.5 never knew people did that now doing it just for kicks

Hey you plan on watching Naruto together?

you better not make us a buggy audience oh don't read this comment

Actually King of Pirates Is Known As Gold Roger But Actually It is Gol D. Roger & Our Main Character Shares 'D' Monkey D. Luffy & 'D' is Still Mystery In Anime Even After 1077 Episodes. Well Guyz Are Dope Btw.❤

E1 17:17 Luffy's powers, Zoro Vs Mr 2 fight, luffy eats df 22:45 Zoro bar fight 27:00 Vs morgans, Garp, Buggy

I just realized (i know ton about the lore) that Grap is most likely the highest marine without a fruit and Shanks is only Yonko without a fruit (ecev is you count 7 of them) and wondering who would won if Garp was in his prime or at least closer to it. In his absolute prime prime Garp mopes floor with current Shanks. But how about 10 years ago?

as a 20-yrs fan, I can't fully enjoy the 1st episode (some kinda baggage [?] for the old-timers) like many One Piece newcomers-reactors. but I do agree with you guys, I still can feel it in this eps. and then it pays, it just got better by every episode. I'm really enjoying you guys discussion (and attention to the detail!). cheers.

It doesn't look like a reaction video. It looks like 2 people reviewing for an exam regarding the video.

If you’re looking for one piece no filler then try watching one pace

OnePiece don`t have fillers&? What?))

The anime pacing is terrible, did u know jojos is longer than one piece, op has 18,000 pages jojos 24,000 pages now this is just mind boggling jojos adapted 80% of its series in 200 ep one piece has 1070+ ep 💀 like the pacing is terrible. New gen anime adapt 4-6 chapters per ep op adapts .5-1 chapter per ep 😭

gonna watch it at 1.25 speed out of spite

Thanks for your reaction. Love seeing new people get into the series. I know the long discussions at the end is usually hard to do for engagement and channel growth, but i do love a long discussion. Keep up how ever you want. Subscribeing now.

This is the worst series in the world, it has no connection at all, and it lacks a lot of important details that they never used. As for the real One Piece, the anime One Piece is just the best, nothing else, and the talk is over.🖕👎👎🖕☹☹👎👎☹🖕👎👎🖕☹👎🖕☹👎👎🖕👎☹🖕👎☹🤫🤫🤫🤫
