Just wondering what people who have watched Netflix’s new One Piece series think.

They don’t have the greatest track record with anime adaptions so I’m afraid to watch it. I thought Cowboy Bebop was alright. Although they kind of butchered Vicious and Julia, imo, the people who played Spike and Jet did well enough that it was able to sustain my interest for awhile but not long enough to finish it. Death Note was barely like the original at all. The only good thing I can say was Lakeith Stanfield’s L portrayal and Willem Dafoe’s Ryuk.

But this series seems to be trending, so maybe they’ve finally done it?

    It’s not embarrassed about being an anime adaptation so it actually does a good job embracing most of what makes the anime great. I have some reservations about it but overall I’d definitely recommend it as a “should watch” anime adaptation.
