    One Piece is great, but it is a big investment. Worth it IMO. If you’re not sure, watch the Netflix live action. It’s only 8 episodes and is pretty faithful to the original.

      I was laid off, and in my 13 months before getting a new job, I didn’t watch a single episode.

      And it’s a high risk investment at this point. I hope Oda stays healthy to see through his masterpiece.

        3 more years tops. Iirc he mentioned he has one more arc in him. Historically they’re 2ish years long give or take. So just a bit longer and we’ll get to see how the one piece was the friends we made along the way.

        Jk I know he said it wasn’t that.

          I don’t trust the guy that initially planned it for 5 years. He just can’t help it!

        Yeah “faithful” isn’t what I would call it but your comment is a huge exaggeration and I hope you know that. I’d struggle to find western adaptations that change less stuff than what the OP LA did.
