Good
A fun but flawed adaptation that captures the spirit, but not the magic, of One Piece.
- Excellent casting choices, especially the Straw Hats and Buggy.
- Marine subplot was a good way to introduce the government and drive the main plot.
- Captures the spirit of the series well.
Pros
- Several emotional backstories and moments were either cut or lack the weight of the manga.
- Fishmen and Going Merry did not look as good as the rest of the series.
- Cinematography and direction lacked any risks in order to stay manga accurate.
