Netflix's live action adaptation of the ultra popular pirate manga dropped on Aug 31!

It's 8 episodes long covering the East Blue arc, with each being about an hour.

Have you watched it yet? What did you like or dislike?

So, I've watched and read the first bits of both the comic and the manga. Watched the first live action episode. Was kinda of primed by the impressions in this thread, but I actually enjoyed it a lot. I honestly liked the performances a lot, especially Luffy. The performances for Nani and Zora felt pretty baseline (not bad, but not outstanding), but I liked the energy that Inaki brought. The set design felt great, and while the costuming was kinda weird, I think it matches the mix of modern & early modern clothes from the original. The score is really fun as well.

Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.
