Get ready for some high priced QUALITY 3D CG, if that GitS preview is to be believed.

Actually this is supposed to get a budget of $9-$12 million an episode, Game of Thrones tier. Which again, why One Piece? Certain stories do not translate well to live action, and if you really think the Straw Hats will be the next GOT, sorry, but no. The tone switches between serious and relentlessly silly on a dime and is quite proud of it. |

I can't even imagine how cheesy the effects will be

How about Netflix tries this after all their other currently planned live-action anime titles have finally been streamed?

How much of that went to the actors, I wonder.. 
I could see them maybe adapting the early fights and locales with that kinda budget. Luffy VS Krieg maybe being the most intense fight possible that could still be convincing. Arlong will cost a lot if they want the fishmen to look Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean tier and not like rubber suits you see in tokusatsu. But any kind of heavy Paramecia/Logia fight is going to be impossible. I'd say until around Little Garden. That''ll be when the series starts becoming too complex for live-action. Mr. 3 would be the first challenge if they want to capture all the crazy and unique things Devil Fruit users can do with their powers and not just have him shoot wax balls or webs like Spider-Man. And yeah, then there's the always elephant in the room of casting, writing, humor, and tone. If they try to play is super serious it'll fail. |

This is where the fun begins.gif
I hope that this will be as wild and awkward as it can be. There is no way that Netflix of all people can make this work with live-action (anything with water costs big money and is a bitch to film) but the potential to be so bad it´s good is also there. Set a course for meme.gif the tv show. And just announce that you want to also desecrate Berserk. It´s only a question of time with the licenses they get to have it get made. And also Dragon Ball. A wonder that it didn´t precede One Piece. |

Naruto hollywood live action movie director said he wants to work with Kishimoto or else the project will stay in development I hope Oda's involvement with One Piece live action series is not gonna be just a paper thing so they can actually give us something good.

Good luck with that! Someone’s Samurai 8 project is in trouble, so I don’t see that happening anytime soon... |

I don't know why they don't pick easier anime to adapt. While not as popular as One Piece shows like Black Lagoon or Goblin Slayer would be so much easier for them to make and give them a better chance at making something most people won't hate. |

That's also what they said about ASOIAF. Look how that turned out. Personally, I don't think 'mainstream' audiences will like it unless Luffy somehow ends up behaving like a certain drunk pirate. As for the 'fan' audience, we will probably have high expectations as usual and end up criticizing it for how they localized/adapted/changed everything for the mainstream (read: Western) audience - which is the actual target audience. But we'll see how this turns out. |
