The person literally admits they don't have any experience with the source material.
What's your point? I'm not talking about the tweeter's opinion, but what their source relayed to them about the opinions of the audience. And we don't know who the audience is, like I said. Again, what's your point?

“At the same time, those familiar with the source material found themselves just as confused by the adaptation's changes to it.”

The tweeter never said that himself. That's just what the article writers wrote. No idea where they got it from - I'm thinking they either made it up or they're reading social media like forums/reddit/youtube/twitter and saw fans who were confused by the rumoured changes.

"I believe this is the last chance to bring One Piece to the entire world" - no pressure then.

Not releasing until Oda's satisfied, so I wonder what he thought of the screened episodes - did those have his approval already? And I wonder if they're really going to wait until he's satisfied. If they're unable to satisfy him I'm guessing they'd still release it eventually. Him saying that publicly puts more pressure on them not to force a release of a crappy version though.

If it gets more than 7 on imdb SHC has to change his name to dumfak for a month. If it gets less than 7 I'll change my name to floppy-dickhead until the end of whatever arc One Piece is on at the time.

I agree. One Piece is already just as popular as, if not more popular than, Naruto and Bleach are in North America now.

@Fantastische Hure so you're excited enough to post itYou're converted.

Luffy's voice suits him well I think. Childish, innocent, slightly stupid-sounding voice.

Gomu gomu and sea king effects don't look bad at all, neither does Buggy's makeup. Fights and the ship getting hit with a cannonball action look promising enough in the trailer. Already looks better than the FMA live-action adaptation.

Not sure about the dialogue between Luffy, Nami and Zoro on the ship, but we'll see..."not a crew" might seem like it belongs in a Nickelodeon TV show with a laugh track and don't remember if Luffy would have said "I'm sensing a little bit of tension", but it doesn't sound bad even if it's not 100% in character. I'd rather it's just slightly different to the manga/anime but makes a good live-action for non-fans than being true to the manga/anime but awkward. The final dialogue between serious Zoro and dumb Luffy was good.

Nothing about the trailer makes me that worried. Thing I'm most worried about is the tone of the show, based on the pre-screening reviews. Luffy is too weird to carry it, but the other characters can balance it out. Watched the trailer 5 times.

Gonna be talk of the schools in September.

If there's a Japanese version is it the same as the original? I looked-up the German version & it seems the same. Can't quite tell yet (outside of for sure Luffy & I think Nami). I prefer that as always.
