As you can see below, critics are echoing their support for One Piece whether they’re fans of the anime or not. The show has been described as “vast” and “faithful” while having the freedom to make live-action calls. Fans have also shared their first impressions as some were lucky enough to watch the premiere of Netflix’s One Piece at various events across the United States this month.
Obviously, the support for One Piece is huge given its fandom, and now reactions say that devotion will pay off. Between Netflix’s team of creators and Oda’s input, One Piece is poised to solidify anime’s spot in Hollywood. Successes like Speed Racer and Alita: Battle Angel paved the way for Luffy to launch in live action. So if you want to watch this big debut, Netflix’s One Piece will go live later this week.
If you want to brush up on One Piece elsewhere, you can find the anime streaming on Hulu, Netflix, and Crunchyroll. For more info on the series, you can read its official synopsis below:
“As a child, Monkey D. Luffy was inspired to become a pirate by listening to the tales of the buccaneer “Red-Haired” Shanks. But Luffy’s life changed when he accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit and gained the power to stretch like rubber…at the cost of never being able to swim again! Years later, still vowing to become the king of the pirates, Luffy sets out on his adventure…one guy alone in a rowboat, in search of the legendary “One Piece,” said to be the greatest treasure in the world…”
