So... is this the start of a Netflix redemption arc? I was convinced that they were going to frick this up even worse than Cowboy Bebop but it feels like they actually learned something.

its a mystery how they could frick up a down to earth setting like Bebop and make an okayish adaptation of a wacky anime
Because they weren't ashamed of the source material and actually had the manga writer somewhat involved in the process
They need to take the hint that fans want stuff adapted properly, not by some nameless Hollywood director who is trying to make their own thing
>Adapted properly.
>Usopp doesn't have his nose and his personality is totally different.
>Luffy's an ugly dark-skinned beaner when in the manga his skin is as white as Sanji's.
>Nami's a post-wall titlet
Luffy was never white as Sanji
>when in the manga his skin is as white as Sanji's.
Nice bait lmao
>the shittier something is the easier it is to adapt passably
not a surprise at all. not watching the show though.
Because they had the rights to Cowboy Bebop and someone thought they had an opportunity on their hand to make their own unlicensed knockoff of Guardians of the Galaxy. Obviously the desire to chase that MCU money won out over the desire to adapt the material.
One Piece on the other hand is already one of the most popular series in the world, so I imagine rather than trying to turn it into Pirates of the Carribean or something, they'd rather just try to stick to what makes the original work.
Netflix treated Bebop like it was Doctor Who but Bebop fans look at it like it is Chinatown or Pulp Fiction. So there was a huge disconnect between expectations.
unironically one piece was already kinda woke therefore netflix didn't have to change much from the manga other than make Nami less sexualized
>one piece was already kinda woke
Is it though? I like one piece but beside having trans be good Feel like the rest is "slavery and fascism bad"
>Is it though?
It has a diverse cast at least for a Japanese reader, a lot of lgbt charactersm, heavy influences from American pop culture, a lot of arcs dedicated to racism is bad.
Face it anon one piece is as woke as manga can get
The entire Fishman Island arc is about how Fishggers needed to stop acting like oppressed victims and integrate with the rest of the world. Hody is a parody of American blacks, when he is asked what humans ever did to make him so racist and his answer is "nothing".
People who interpret the arc as a simple "racism bad" story have garbage reading comprehension. I think the arc sucks but it's probably the best media representation of how a race can hold itself back by clinging onto their oppression.
>I like one piece but beside having trans be good Feel like the rest is "slavery and fascism bad"
Morals like that are considered "woke".
there is nothing about fascism in one piece, if you think there is you are moronic.
One Piece may be many things but it's definitely not woke. I mean even the show has our hero punch a plus sized, Latino woman square in the face. No chance you'd get that in Rings of Power
Not only that, but One Piece especially gets ANTI woke later on too.
Bebop is boring. One Piece is not.
Can't speak to what they've done with One Piece, since I haven't seen the anime and I've no interest in the remake, but the fricking up of Bebop was deliberate. That's the only way what they did makes sense, because regular stupidity or incompetence doesn't come close to explaining thinks like (to choose randomly from a very long list) having Vicious say "Moshi moshi" and talk about getting his balls shaved, or shoehorning in lots of toilet humour, or turning Spike into a middle-aged, garrulous, submissive loser/child murderer. Impossible to "prove" when they all claimed they loved and respected the original, but did my best here (if anyone is interested/hasn't seen it): https://youtu.be/Erb2x5SQHd8
I'll give it a watch, man.
I've considered doing a similar essay on everything wrong with the music direction and why bringing back Yoko Kanno didn't mean shit if the placement was awful.
The music in One Piece is actually pretty great though. Best TV score I've heard in a while.
I covered the music very briefly (when searching for *any* positives), and a huge problem there is the ghastly "Isn't this funny?" tone throughout much of the remake, which demands "plinky", upbeat music to match. Not much room for soul there.
It's much more than that. You can't just use the intro of Ask DNA for "briefly walking to the kitchen". Opening the show with What Planet Is This? set the entire thing up to fail from there
I see your point. You probably could do a whole video just focusing on that aspect, yeah. I largely focused on the characters, as there was a hell of a lot to say there.
Netflix does it again! I will surely be renueing my subscription!
dude was a her though
No. Luffy is ugly as shit, nami is ugly, and sanji doesn't look much like him.
nami's actress isn't that bad looking irl. not a 10/10 but not ugly either. i think the hair dye they use in the show is just shit.
she's hot as frick with a nice belly
>Luffy is ugly as shit
Accurate.
>white skin
>normal human nose
That looks nothing like the ugly frick actor they got.
>nami is ugly
Lmao, this homie ate the gay-gay fruit.
You're excessively thirsty, that's all there is to it.
>Picrelated
Damn, how the frick didn't I catch this
im actually baffled how watchable it was what the frick happened with bebop then when its just space opera
They really went out on the shilling for this show
Normies love it
It's over
>people wore the hats we handed out at a promotional event
woah
i would bet my life savings this is in latin america
What a great setup to view Helmeppo's beautiful ass
no, one piece fans just have very low standards
Depends on how the second season turns out.
frick off shill
So this is your life for the next several months, huh? I'd almost feel sorry for you if you weren't a worthless piece of shit.
Every casting choice was wrong, the dialog is awful, it's stuffed with raceswaps, there's female fanservice but none for the guys and we're pretending Nami was a small-chested thirty year old when anyone can look up her Alabasta outfit and see you're full of shit and she always had massive breasts.
Go on, post a picture from the very first chapter where she's drawn like a kid and pretend that means "thirty years old" you dicklicking gaygalagadingdong. Quit spamming this shit.
Damn I didn't know boob size was a race that's crazy
You probably shouldn't respond to people's arguments when your grasp of english is this poor.
idk but the rice ball girl is pretty
why is emily rudd so hot in interviews but an ugly old hag in the actual show?
I remember back when the trailers were shown, people were saying how the cast looks too "clean" and how they should look more worn and dirty to make it look like they've been adventuring, fighting, etc.
The wig.
she's playing as a pirate not a model. Why do you expect her to be pretty in a show about pirates you dumb coomers.
The make up, lenses, and color correction they went with are all horrendous. It makes every actress look awful. The actress playing Kaya isn't good looking by any means, but she isn't nearly as hideous as she looks in the show. The actress playing Sham is even kind of cute in real life.
she'll be pushing 40 by the time s2 comes out
I want to protect their smiles!
>there's a japanese island
>everyone in it but Zoro is black
So tiresome, bros.
Maybe Geronimo Del Taco's Naoki Urasawa's Monster will finally get off the ground because of this
Had to drop 'Everybody Loves Tenma' about halfway through due to the sheer amount of stories that affirm how much if a good guy Dr Tenma' really is
>two episodes in
>no battle theme
?si=a2_LxsJ5IsZJnuoY
If it isn't in the finale at least I'll probably do something silly
This show is cancer.
It's fanbase is cancer.
Half the fanbase doesn't have toilet at home.
The other half a fricking beaners and LGBT.
>The other half a
*are
They have learned nothing. The only difference is that israelites are in the minority at the decision-making table.

Steven Maeda is the braindead homosexual that compared Luffy to Kamala Harris on his instagram and asserted Trump was Charlos.
And that's who made this shit.
I remember seeing the Trump comparison and realizing he would not be able to hold himself back from making one of the Celestial Dragons look like Trump
why are people saying this show is good? it's not bad but it's not great either. the premise is nice but the acting is kina shit and the dialogue between characters is terrible.
>why are people saying this show is good?
Because you haven't seen that abomination of Cowboy Bebop...
You just said it yourself: the concept.
People like it because it's One Piece and has One Piece in the name. If this was released as an original series and the names and faces were different, people would be shitting on it.
So are they gonna adapt Naruto next? The first few arcs are unironically kino
Netflix was never THAT bad. NPCs on here just like shitting on anything they can find.
>Extraction
>6 Underground
>Bright
>Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
>Narcos
>Daredevil
>Devilman Crybaby
>The King
>Outlaw King
>The Highwaymen
>Beasts of No Nation
>Klaus
>The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance
>Arcane
>Triple Frontier
>Altered Carbon (S1)
>Errementari
>Bodyguard
They casted a troony as Koby
And she's a terrible actress too.
Of course they expanded Koby's story and put him in every episode. I bet they do the same in every season they make.
I considered Koby to be annoying past episode 1
they should fricking stop doing these live action shit, if is good or bad, its always going to look horrible
No, its shit.
>Netflix redemption arc?
Everything that's wrong with netflix is found in there.
