Just wondering what people who have watched Netflix’s new One Piece series think.

They don’t have the greatest track record with anime adaptions so I’m afraid to watch it. I thought Cowboy Bebop was alright. Although they kind of butchered Vicious and Julia, imo, the people who played Spike and Jet did well enough that it was able to sustain my interest for awhile but not long enough to finish it. Death Note was barely like the original at all. The only good thing I can say was Lakeith Stanfield’s L portrayal and Willem Dafoe’s Ryuk.

But this series seems to be trending, so maybe they’ve finally done it?

    My mom watched One Piece with me when I was a kid (she had no choice), and will catch constant reruns of it on TV through the years so she’s basically familiar with it. She watched the Live Action in one day lol, she enjoyed it way more than she expected (she usually watch a show for days) so I guess that’s a good indication.
