there is talk of an American live-action remake of One Piece

One Piece is my favorite manga and series, I am obsessed. I DO NOT WANT AN AMERICAN LIVE ACTION VERSION.

Oh dear.

I mean I suppose it could work, but my faith is kinda on the low side for that.

I feel like live action anime in general never works. The Japanese movies are always too low budget and the American remakes always end up having too many issues.

I always find it weird what animes people pick to make an American version of as well, like they never pick the anime that has actual white characters in it so white washing wouldn't be so completely offensive. Why not make Full Metal Alchemist or Attack on Titan? Those series would not be hard to make for an english speaking audience.

Yeah, that's a problem in general. I would probably watch the shit out of a Japanese LA One Piece but it would be hilariously bad with ridiculous CG effects like the PGSM live-action. At least that I would go into expecting it.

The other real problem with One Piece is that it is, as of current, 873 chapters (just shy of 800 episodes) - the still going isn't so much an issue as the overall length of it already. Even treating separate arcs as a single season, it will take SO LONG for the audience to get to know the characters and the world that they might check out before even one season is done. You'll never get to Skypeia or Enies Lobby or Dressrosa at that rate, if the audience can't even hang on to wait for the first five characters to be introduced. In addition, the director is saying it would be the most expensive TV series ever, in terms of effects, and I still don't trust them to have decent effects. Or casting. Whitewashing is less of a concern since Oda has said the characters aren't of any one specific race - but he has also suggested what Earthly race they would each be if they were born in our world, and I legit don't expect them to cast a Brazilian Luffy, Japanese Zoro, and Russian Robin.

Shit man, though, a live-action AoT might actually make sense. It would work better than anything else Hollywood has tried.

They really need to stop these American live action versions of anime. It just doesn't work.
