With the popularity of One Piece, has Netflix hit the winning formula for live-action anime adaptations?

Retrieved on:

Saturday, September 16, 2023

One Piece’s postmodern take on the pirate genre has characters dressed in neat business suits, and contemporary t-shirts.

Key Points:

One Piece’s postmodern take on the pirate genre has characters dressed in neat business suits, and contemporary t-shirts.
But it is the general mix of the manga’s fun, action and drama that the series captures so well.

From Manga to Anime to Live-action

In 2020, anime streaming service, Crunchyroll, released the anime across its platforms in Europe and the Middle-East.
While manga and anime such as Dragon Ball Z and Pokémon have long attracted a global audience, One Piece is aimed at a slightly older audience.
One Piece’s journey from manga, through anime to live-action has precedence across all genres in Japan, not just in children’s cartoons.

Keeping it ‘real’

If you’re not sure how passionate fans can be, here’s one spirited review of the series, that he’s thoughtfully limited to just under one hour.
The remake copped a Variety review claiming that it was marred by its “charmless heroine, leaden storytelling and dime-store production values”.

Casting the crew

Perhaps one of the keys to this series immediate success is its international casting.
Luffy is played with ineffable joy by Mexico’s Inaki Godoy, who captures the wild-eyed optimism of the original manga character.
The excellent casting in One Piece tops off the series’ ability to remain breathtakingly fun.

Secret to success?

How did they create an adaptation that captured the excitement of both the manga and anime and doesn’t, well, suck?
Many of the props, including some of the boats, were actually built, so the actors aren’t just green-screening their performances.
