Netflix and Tomorrow Studios’ “One Piece” Netflix adaptation live-action series has been officially launched. At present, the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is 82%, the audience rating is as high as 94%, and the IMDb score is 8.6 points. Compared with the recent Hollywood live-action version of “Saint Seiya”, which has a dismal box office Rotten Tomatoes scored 61% from the audience, and the live-action version of “One Piece” can be regarded as a successful adaptation of Hollywood Japanese comics.
The live-action series One Piece is executive produced by Eiichiro Oda, produced by Tomorrow Studios’ Marty Adelstein and written by Matt Owens. The plot mainly describes the “Oriental Blue” chapter of the original manga, which is the story before the Straw Hats enter the Great Channel.

The live-action version of “One Piece” has many differences from the original, including some interactive bridges, relationship descriptions, character appearances, etc., and the rhythm is more American-style. For audiences who have an impression of the story but don’t remember the details, or audiences who are exposed to “One Piece” for the first time, they can still enjoy watching it.
vision
Before the album was officially released, many fans of the original series criticized the character’s appearance as inconsistent with the original series, for example, Sanji’s eyebrows are not curled, and the deceptively long nose is not long. Zoro felt that “calling out the name of the move is stupid” and it was not an original work. Zoro is someone who uses nigiri sushi and rice balls as move names.
Occasionally, there are flaws in the picture. Sauron’s scabbard was bent for a few seconds in the battle of Monka.
Although the visual shortcomings of the live-action version are mentioned first, the advantages are still worthy of praise. Not only are the exquisite scenic spots and monster special effects, but the production team put a lot of original easter eggs in the series. The clothes worn by the characters in the series are all from the colorful title pages of comics; Bellamy”, “Silver Fox Foxy”, “Cavendish” and so on.

When each pirate debuts, there will be special effects of bounty list, and the character will open and discard it himself, which is a small detail that I like very much.
plot
The “Oriental Blue Chapter” of the original work focuses on the Straw Hat Boys and the villains, and there are very few naval scenes in comparison; while the live-action version reduces the scenes of some villains and adjusts the length of the plot. The part of the Klick Pirates is less than 3 minutes long, and the villains are mainly Al Lita, Bucky the Clown, Mengka the Axeman, Crowe, and the evil dragon.
The live-action version of Kirby and Luffy’s grandfather “Karp” is portrayed as the main character of the Oriental Blue Chapter, further emphasizing the contradictory relationship between Karp, Kirby, and Luffy. Karp’s plot in the live-action version is basically All original production.
However, even if the plot is adjusted, the arrangement of the production team will not make the story too contrary to common sense, creating another possibility of “One Piece”, and the actors all have the charm of showing the characters, which will make the audience Be convincing without being too detached. It confirms Oda’s feelings regarding the live-action version, “It feels like the real Straw Hat Boys are talking.”
The “character’s childhood memories” that are very important in the original work are expressed in the form of interlaced narratives in the live-action version. In the sailing ceremony of the last episode, the Straw Hat Boys stated their goals, overlapped with them in childhood, and established their determination to realize their dreams.
The original ingenuity arranged by the production team is not only visual. In the memory, when the red-haired Jack stitched Ruffy’s wound, the background music in the bar was “Binks’ Wine”; when Sauron was recuperating in the cabin following being cut by Hawkeye, Nami told him “The Liar Noland” “, this fairy tale was mentioned in the original Gaya Island chapter. These details are very touching to fans of the original work.
epilogue
Contrary to the negative impression of anime fans on “Hollywood adaptations of Japanese manga live-action film and television works”, the live-action album “One Piece” has achieved a balance between the original elements of the production team, the original setting, and the rationality of converting the two-dimensional to the three-dimensional , the actor’s temperament and the role are also very suitable.
However, it is still recommended not to review the original work before watching it, just treat it as a “One Piece”-style sailing-themed American drama.
