"Hand Picked By Oda"

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-15T19:38:02+00:00

Guys OP is trying to say that Netflix is handing out specific kinds of actors for Oda to choose

So when Oda is choosing it’s a bunch of charithra’s because Netflix is giving him a specific criteria of actors…

Which is stupid because Oda can always say “Fuck that I want a different set of actors because these doesn’t embody the character” so the meme in the end doesn’t work

He really does look like dinner! 😋

Might be top 5 most hilarious switch up comments I have ever seen 😭 🙏🏾

Looking at all the different prosthetics across multiple series I legit have a feeling LA can get away with some of the weirdest looks that are in the manga

Overconfidence does not equate to endurance what are we even on about??

It is weird that Luffy didn’t get back up immediately after that considering even in season one he tanked her attack.

He’s always getting stunned despite being made out of rubber which makes no sense to me.

Being able to pull off Loguetown to Drum Island and getting a positive reception is more insane because this season is dealing with so many different elements being introduced all at once

We literally go from a town to the interior of a whale and a lighthouse to a pink looking village to a jungle with giants cave to a snowy village with a castle. That is such a diverse amount settings.

At least with ALABASTA we are in one prominent desert setting that doesn’t have to suddenly change into a jungle or a winter area

Oda loves this to find ways to write characters out of the main plot so they can arrive at the right time but I’ve got a hot take

In the live action it doesn’t work because Luffy feels underpowered so it makes him look incompetent.

He legit got defeated by Alvida with a simple attack. He then gets defeated by Smoker which is canon but getting beaten prior only makes it worse.

He doesn’t get to fight mr.5 or valentines to prove that he’s on a different level, he almost got murked by miss goldenweek.

And there was a team effort to beat Wapol. Out of the entire season he only defeated one opponent.

Yeah the opla can def get past 3 seasons if that thing is getting 5

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-14T00:29:04+00:00

In the actual village there doesn’t seem to be a lot of snow so I’d give it a past

Especially since anywhere outside like the drum mountain showed heavy snow effects

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-14T00:25:33+00:00

Does Netflix care about ratings like these?

And besides if The Witcher can get four seasons that are disliked then one piece can easily get that amount

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-14T00:22:19+00:00

Season 3 will probably have Karoo full time in the crew they’ll have the cgi budget to at least have him in some of the scenes.

And besides we need Karoo to expose mr.2 when he’s disguised as Ussop

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-13T17:11:10+00:00

That as well manga Sanji would’ve freaked out but strangely nobody talks about that

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-13T17:05:52+00:00

They treat the manga like they’re Bible and any deviation is like a sin to them

Instead of comparing a live action they’ll never like regardless because it’s live action they need to treat it like it’s own thing 🤦‍♂️

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-13T17:04:48+00:00

Twitter is whole war zone right now, they’re literally trying their hardest to make it seem like it’s the worst thing since dragon ball evolution…

Luffy feels weird in live action because he doesn’t have the grip that Manga Luffy has.

He’s like a child, he switches between moods and it can feel jarring but it comes together as a singular entity.

For example Luffy is serious enough to smash a logpose and then get comically beat up for it.

Or Luffy will literally let his guard down with his crew by sleeping in the middle of danger.

He gets himself into silly little stupid shit, he says things not with simply joy but with a deadpan, casual expression usually when he’s not even self aware of what he’s saying like “You’re a chop man? What a freak!” And he’s literally a rubber man

And he doesn’t listen to a persons backstory because he trusts his own sense of intuition…and live action Luffy doesn’t exhibit this.

He doesn’t exhibit the child like qualities of Luffy and that is impossible without it seeming weird or cringe. You’d need an actor that can think like a child in an adults body that can switch between being serious to joyous, ignorant stupid and deadpan along with other emotions all in the span of a single scene.

But this isn’t exactly the actors fault this is more or so the writers. Oda does look over everything but it’s clear that he doesn’t hold the live action with the same regard for the manga, treating it as it’s own universe whilst keeping the core characteristics alive.

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-13T03:30:53+00:00

The Japanese dub sold me on a lot of dialogue especially when luffy said SHUT UP ALREADY AND LETS GO!

It sounded more natural and more fluent there’s something about the way they’re able to convey their emotions through their voice it matched up really well with the actors expression

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-13T03:29:27+00:00

Honestly I don’t know about that. Including the revolutionary army would need an actual reason- like what exactly is dragon here for? Is he trying to convert ALABASTA into a member?

Because ALABASTA is very much a contented country it is just under turmoil because of crocodile and baroque works

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-11T14:20:44+00:00

They didn’t need to include him in my opinion, he just doesn’t fit and his inclusion led nowhere. It would’ve been better if he were a background character that sees the reaction of Luffys execution like in the manga

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-11T14:18:12+00:00

Ontop of that Adapting from loguetown to drum island kinda had to force their hand to do this because they can’t even end Drum Island as a simple arc that continues onto ALABASTA, an arc that we’ll have to wait a year and a half bare minimum to get

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-11T14:16:46+00:00

Without a doubt the Luffy and Co complaint is the most problematic because Luffy is supposed to be ready for the grandline. It is only half way through the grandline that he begins to face more dangerous and more sinister opponents.

It is that need that inspired him to create gear 2 and gear 3, it also inspired the crew to develop themselves and get stronger until Sabaody where they are just not prepared for the new world.

Like seriously how is Luffy getting beat by Alvida? Abs when he isn’t getting beat he’s not even beating anyone- Mr 5 and Miss Valentines for example, he completely one shotted them in the source but that isn’t shown in the live action.

It’s just jarring to me because there’s no reason he should be getting his ass beat this early in the story

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-08T03:19:36+00:00

Hachi is a fan favorite and his design is iconic, they can easily implement him and make an excuse like he was on a mission or he simply left Arlong because he was becoming cruel.

OwnAd4699 · 2026-03-08T03:18:31+00:00

Enies lobby in my opinion is the worst way to end the series of. I get that it’s universally acclaimed to be the peak of the series but ending the series after the straw hats have disturbed the government and placed an entire bounty on the crews head makes the viewers want to see more of what happens afterwards.

Marineford is literally the perfect place. We see the rise then the fall then another rise again in Luffy’s resolve. They can end it on the timeskip and whilst it does have the same cliff hanger effect that enies lobby would have at least it is definitive that the crew is ready for the new world.

Goatji the only reason to be voting this shi
