1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:00,680
Speaker 1: Yo, What is up?

2
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:00,960
Speaker 2: Boys?

3
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: How's it going?

4
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 3: And welcome back to another episode of the Rant Cafe

5
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,320
Anime podcast. Today we're talking about the One Piece Live

6
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:11,679
Action with the Anime Dude and anime Recon. I already

7
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:13,560
did a podcast for the one Piece version talking about

8
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,400
the one Piece Live Action with Teking one on one

9
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,839
and Poseidon Mythos, so be sure to check out that

10
00:00:17,879 --> 00:00:18,519
one as well.

11
00:00:18,839 --> 00:00:24,039
Speaker 1: Let's jump right into it. What up boys, what dreamer?

12
00:00:25,839 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 3: It's yeah, Welcome back, Recon. It's always interesting to talk

13
00:00:31,879 --> 00:00:36,640
one Piece with Recon, so just right away. General thoughts, Recon,

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:38,840
what what do you think of the One Piece Live

15
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:39,719
Action Season two?

16
00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 4: It was fine, to be honest, surprisingly very fine.

17
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it very fine.

18
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,359
Speaker 3: It's crazy you are now very further in the live

19
00:00:51,399 --> 00:00:57,799
action than you got in the anime, which is sad. Yeah, okay,

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,799
Recon sounds happy to be back. Fine is a little crazy.

21
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,599
I think it's pretty pretty stinking good. It has its issues,

22
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:06,159
but for the most part, I think it's very good.

23
00:01:06,359 --> 00:01:09,760
But then again, I'm a one piece Glazer Jordan. General

24
00:01:09,799 --> 00:01:11,560
thoughts on the One Piece Live Action Season two?

25
00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:14,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that. I thought it was pretty okay.

26
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: Fucking guys.

27
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: You know, I do think it's probably the best like

28
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,640
Western anime adaptation that I've seen, so like it's up there,

29
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,599
but like the competition isn't like the the highest right,

30
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,879
So it's good, it's good. I have my critiques I

31
00:01:28,879 --> 00:01:31,040
could maybe give it, but and I was trying to

32
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,159
focus on those to where we're not only saying positive things.

33
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,159
But overall I did like it.

34
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: It's nice. Nice. See. I don't have that many critiques,

35
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,000
to be honest.

36
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: It's more so that like when you turn an anime

37
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,040
or manga into a live action, especially something as silly

38
00:01:45,079 --> 00:01:47,400
and over the top as one piece, it's like you

39
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,840
have two choices. Either you make it more serious and

40
00:01:49,879 --> 00:01:53,920
then it's not one piece, or you make it or

41
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,879
try and make it as as similar to the heart

42
00:01:57,879 --> 00:02:00,159
of one piece as you can, and by doing so,

43
00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:02,359
it's going to be cringing and awkward. And it definitely

44
00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:05,400
comes off as cringe, cringe and awkward at times, because

45
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,480
at the end of the day, it's trying to stay faithful.

46
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: To a cartoon.

47
00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 3: But I would rather it be a little bit awkward

48
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,199
than not faithful, if that makes sense.

49
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: No, for sure, I definitely don't want it to ever

50
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,840
sound like I'm understanding how difficult adapting you know, a

51
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,280
cartoon as goofy as One Piece can be, right, So like,

52
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,680
I totally get that.

53
00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:25,319
Speaker 3: People are going to be mad at that we're even

54
00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:27,759
calling in a cartoon an anime, guys, an anime.

55
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,479
Speaker 2: I watched it on four Kids originally, Okay, I didn't

56
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:31,039
know the difference.

57
00:02:31,479 --> 00:02:35,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, let's jump into episode one. Anything you

58
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,400
guys really really liked about episode of one, it's when

59
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,039
they went to Logtown and we got to see Bartolomeo

60
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:46,159
and Smoker and the execution and the little courtroom scene

61
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,759
and a bunch of other little little moments here and there,

62
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,840
Zoro swords scene. Anything you guys really liked. Anything you

63
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:52,919
guys didn't like, let me know.

64
00:02:54,439 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 4: I'll let you start with this one. Jordan, you're the

65
00:02:56,319 --> 00:02:57,360
one piece connoisseur.

66
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: I do love me some one piece. So so lowdown

67
00:03:01,439 --> 00:03:03,879
was interesting, exaid one of the things I did like

68
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,840
a lot, or I do like a lot about the

69
00:03:05,879 --> 00:03:08,080
live action thus far. And you know, maybe it's just

70
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,840
a stylistic choice. People will have their preference, but I

71
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,680
like that they're taking this opportunity now that like one

72
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,719
Piece has thousands of chapters out to turn writing decisions

73
00:03:17,719 --> 00:03:20,919
from later on into foreshadowing, so you know, we get

74
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,159
characters like Bartolomeo and and things like that popping up

75
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,479
earlier on, which I enjoyed. And then I think Buggy

76
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,800
is probably my favorite character overall in the live action.

77
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,800
I love what they did with his character, So every

78
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:40,719
scene where he's present is just gold. Right, So overall,

79
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:42,520
I like Lowdown quite a bit, and those were like

80
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,879
the biggest highlights for me.

81
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: Ricon overall.

82
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,199
Speaker 4: Honestly, Longton was pretty cool. I like how Loofy was

83
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,599
just so like excited to see where the legend is

84
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,840
born of the One Piece. With this heino the execution

85
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,319
platform where gold Gold Roger was defeated, and how everybody

86
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,759
is just set set sale to go to One Piece

87
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,919
reminds me of Season one, episode one. It was awesome,

88
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,479
But uh, it was cool to see Buggy again. Definitely

89
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,360
a huge highlight of a character.

90
00:04:15,719 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 5: Just wish he had more screen time.

91
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, such a short time, even though I will know

92
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:21,639
he'll be back.

93
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: So I agree with you boys Buggy.

94
00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 3: Buggy's actor is so talented that whenever he's on screen,

95
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:30,920
he just carries the series or carries that scene. He

96
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,839
was more prevalent in season one. In season two we

97
00:04:33,959 --> 00:04:36,160
get that one episode with him, and then unfortunately he's

98
00:04:36,199 --> 00:04:39,959
not He's not really used gone. He's gone, but which

99
00:04:39,959 --> 00:04:42,240
makes which makes sense because they're following the story and

100
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,439
he's not there in Drum Island or in Whiskey Peek,

101
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,279
et cetera. But I agree Jordan, he's always a highlight.

102
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,319
I also agree with what Jordan said about Bartolomeo because

103
00:04:52,319 --> 00:04:55,240
we all know that Bartow is a big straw hat fanboy,

104
00:04:55,399 --> 00:04:57,920
just like us, and it's cool to get to see

105
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,480
how he became a fanboy because we oh in retrospect

106
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,199
now that he was there on Lockdown, even though he

107
00:05:04,319 --> 00:05:06,399
wasn't in the anime and the mom that at the time.

108
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,800
Later on, hundreds and hundreds of chapters later, or hundreds

109
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,879
of hundreds of episodes later, we do know that he

110
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,439
was there. So by putting that in, it kind of

111
00:05:15,519 --> 00:05:19,040
just adds to the series. And I think Oda's probably saying,

112
00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:21,759
you could put Bartolomeo early, you could put Sabo early.

113
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,279
You could like hint at things here and there, the

114
00:05:24,319 --> 00:05:26,920
will of Deed, so on and so forth, because we

115
00:05:27,079 --> 00:05:30,000
know that those are things that happen later on, and

116
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,879
you might as well tease it. I think, Sabo, it's

117
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,399
kind of just like they know that we're never gonna

118
00:05:35,399 --> 00:05:36,560
get to it in the live action.

119
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:38,639
Speaker 1: Don't worry about it.

120
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 2: We come exactly, don't worry about it.

121
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 4: There was.

122
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: Like there was like a four second.

123
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,759
Speaker 3: There was like a four second little guy walks out

124
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,800
of a door and we're all just like, oh my god,

125
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,040
it's sobo where It's like, I feel like they just

126
00:05:51,079 --> 00:05:51,519
put that like.

127
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,759
Speaker 1: An easter egg. Remember, yeah, you wouldn't know, you've only

128
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,560
watched the carlong.

129
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

130
00:05:57,439 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: I don't think we've got in a flashback with him.

131
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, but regardless, it's like that's just an easter heg

132
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:06,160
for the for the for the manga fans, and I

133
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,879
don't think they'll ever get the dress Rosa for the

134
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,639
live action, so I might as well throw them.

135
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: You never know, they could go through all the way

136
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:13,560
through it.

137
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 3: They forget if it gets enough popularity. But from what

138
00:06:17,959 --> 00:06:20,800
I hear, just because of like they're gonna age, they're

139
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,000
gonna get old. I think their goals to get to

140
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,959
either end of his lobby or Marine Ford from what

141
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:26,600
I heard.

142
00:06:26,399 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 4: Okay, can I just say like, I am such a

143
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,480
fan of just the overall power system that one piece

144
00:06:33,519 --> 00:06:35,920
has with the with the double fruits, Like it's just

145
00:06:35,959 --> 00:06:38,720
so unique. You've got the gum gum fru, You've got

146
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,959
the chop chopped fruit, You've got the munch munch frew,

147
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,560
you got the slip slip through like.

148
00:06:42,639 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: These are what the is the chop chop fruit? Oh,

149
00:06:45,399 --> 00:06:46,160
Buggy Buggies.

150
00:06:46,199 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 3: Okay, I because he always he always makes for the chopper,

151
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,319
he always makes for the choppers.

152
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: I thought it was the chop chop power name.

153
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 5: I don't even know, no remember what was what was

154
00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:58,759
his Devil Fruits.

155
00:06:58,759 --> 00:07:02,439
Speaker 1: I guess Buggies is just chop shop for Yeah.

156
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,879
Speaker 4: I don't know. He did say like when he uses

157
00:07:03,959 --> 00:07:07,240
power chop chop something. I don't know, but I really

158
00:07:07,319 --> 00:07:10,600
like the idea of the of the fruit power system

159
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,560
is pretty unique. And seeing Alvida again, she was pretty

160
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,519
hot this time around.

161
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,199
Speaker 3: I have a bit of a hot take which I

162
00:07:16,199 --> 00:07:19,199
did see on the other podcast. I think Alvida the actor,

163
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,439
what a phenomenal job like losing all the weight wow

164
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,160
and getting herself into shape wow for the Devil Fruits transformation. However,

165
00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:29,360
hot take it would have been better if they've had

166
00:07:29,399 --> 00:07:33,439
two different actors, because in the manga. In the manga,

167
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,439
it's genuinely a different person, like Alvida to Alvida. It's

168
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,600
the most insane transformation that a human can't do it.

169
00:07:41,639 --> 00:07:44,199
Speaker 4: I did see the pictures. I did see the pictures.

170
00:07:44,199 --> 00:07:45,160
A huge difference.

171
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,839
Speaker 2: Nobody recognized her. Yeah that's the me, which it would

172
00:07:48,839 --> 00:07:52,160
have made sense regardless props of her. It is tough

173
00:07:52,199 --> 00:07:56,319
to I can lose that much. So either way didn't

174
00:07:56,319 --> 00:07:57,839
bother me too much. But now that's one of those

175
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,040
changes I can definitely get behind if they had done that.

176
00:08:01,279 --> 00:08:03,439
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Smoker? And how do you

177
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:04,240
feel about Dragon?

178
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,279
Speaker 4: Who the fuck is Dragon?

179
00:08:08,639 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: Don't worry about Ricon Jordan?

180
00:08:10,759 --> 00:08:12,959
Speaker 5: J'ah, come on, man, tell me old dragons.

181
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:15,439
Speaker 2: We actually got a little bit more time with Dragon,

182
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,600
I think, in uh in the live action than he.

183
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: It was the guy who saved Loofy. Was the guy

184
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:21,959
who saved Loofy from Smoker.

185
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 5: Oh, that hooded guy.

186
00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: That mysterious guy, right, Mike Tyson looking son of a gun?

187
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,440
So okay, yeah so he uh yeah, I liked that

188
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,519
we got him. We still haven't gotten a lot on him.

189
00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:38,200
We see him mentioned again later on in the Revelry,

190
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,200
uh like after the Drum Island arc towards the very

191
00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:43,679
end of the season, right, so a lot of things

192
00:08:43,759 --> 00:08:47,519
packed in there, you love to see it. And then Smoker,

193
00:08:47,639 --> 00:08:49,600
I think the guy did a pretty good job playing him.

194
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 4: Overall, Yeah, bad as badass actor.

195
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,639
Speaker 2: They included the ice cream scene, which I love to see.

196
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,360
I think a lot of the the characters are going

197
00:08:59,399 --> 00:09:01,399
to be a little bit different from the you know,

198
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,840
anime and manga compared to the live action, and overall,

199
00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:05,519
it doesn't bother me too much as long as, like

200
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,159
the core of the character is there. So I do

201
00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:11,480
have one nitpick with a character in this arc, but

202
00:09:11,639 --> 00:09:13,919
I didn't really have it in the moment. It was

203
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,799
more so like as the series went on, I was

204
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:19,120
kind of just thinking about it, right, So Tashigi would

205
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,240
be the one I would maybe have like a little

206
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,759
bit of a criticism with, but not necessarily in like

207
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:24,440
a really bad way. It was more like a writing way.

208
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: What's writing criticism?

209
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: So like with Western writing and adaptations and whatnot. The

210
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,159
way they write like women when they try to make

211
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,559
them strong, I feel like it's very different than than

212
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,360
Eastern ways a lot of the time, and a lot

213
00:09:39,399 --> 00:09:41,639
of the time it has to deal with like them,

214
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:43,399
you know, undercutting a man in some type of way,

215
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,080
being more aggressive and standoffish and whatnot. So they like it,

216
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,360
kind of wrote a little bit of an arc in

217
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:50,960
there where Smoker keeps like undermining her a little bit

218
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:53,720
and then like she has to kind of stand up

219
00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:56,159
for herself to you know, to go along with him.

220
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,480
And you know, it doesn't feel too bad that it's

221
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:01,519
like a standalone in the live action, but it's one

222
00:10:01,519 --> 00:10:03,039
of those things where I never really got that feeling

223
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,240
of their dynamic in the in the manga, right because

224
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,440
she's the number two and she's just number two for

225
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,440
a reason, like she had his trust like it, but

226
00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:11,200
it so it was like they kind of wrote that

227
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,240
in there, and then, uh, you can kind of feel

228
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,039
how it's like a little bit different writing wise.

229
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,799
Speaker 3: Wow, I agree. So I never really thought about it,

230
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,360
and then I did like it. They gave her like

231
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,200
they added to her, like she's going to the Grand

232
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,799
Line for her own dreams in a way to like

233
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,039
to find all those swords, which was a thing originally,

234
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,440
but it wasn't emphasized as much. So I like that

235
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,000
that she found her own way. But you're right, the

236
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:38,000
relationship between Smoker and t Shgi was a little bit different,

237
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,159
and they did it for the reason, I guess of

238
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,120
like making her like have to like kind of overcome him.

239
00:10:43,159 --> 00:10:45,399
I guess because he was like putting putting her off.

240
00:10:45,879 --> 00:10:48,000
But in the anime, the way they do it is

241
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,039
like she just takes on two like pirates early on

242
00:10:51,399 --> 00:10:54,080
and she just fucks them up, so like just show

243
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,799
the strength through her actual strength.

244
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: I agree. I agree, Georgian. It doesn't it doesn't need.

245
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 3: To be about putting down a man or a man

246
00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:01,879
in treating her like shit blah blah blah.

247
00:11:01,919 --> 00:11:03,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, And like I said, I didn't really think about

248
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:05,559
it too much in that standalone arc. I kind of

249
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,679
thought of it more of like overarching across the season.

250
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,080
I noticed it because we got and it's not necessarily

251
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,559
a criticism, it's more of an observation because we got

252
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,559
the same thing with like Miss Golden Week, which very

253
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,600
forgettable character in the Amanda right, kind of a little

254
00:11:18,639 --> 00:11:20,440
bit of the opposite, but like they kind of added

255
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,240
to her character a lot, and then uh, Miss Valentine's

256
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:24,799
was kind of the same way with mister five, like

257
00:11:24,799 --> 00:11:26,159
she would shoot down a lot of his jokes. He

258
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:28,360
would make dumb jokes. She would kind of do that,

259
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,039
and then, uh, we could talk about it later. But

260
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,080
I feel like there was some moments that I love

261
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,320
for Nami that really show how strong she is that

262
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,240
they didn't include. Right, So it's just like different ways

263
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,440
of like showing a strength and a character, right that. Uh,

264
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,200
just you can kind of tell on the writing when

265
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,399
they add stuff or remove it.

266
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess, yeah, Western, the Western influence does make

267
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:48,200
a difference.

268
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:49,759
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't think about that too much. It's

269
00:11:49,799 --> 00:11:50,320
a great point.

270
00:11:51,159 --> 00:11:53,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hadn't seen anybody else really bring that up,

271
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,559
but it was something I was kind of thinking about

272
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,360
after I, I guess finished the whole series and said, not

273
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000
too noticeable in standalones, and not necessarily even a criticism.

274
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,240
It's just more of an observation than anything.

275
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 3: So Okay, speaking of observations, I observed the fact that

276
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:08,159
Dragon's powers were more obvious than the live action, which

277
00:12:08,159 --> 00:12:09,840
had to have been green lit bioda.

278
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,799
Speaker 1: So like, obviously we saw.

279
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:14,039
Speaker 3: A green leaf and a little bit of wind when

280
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:17,159
he saved Loofy in the anime, and even less in

281
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,759
the manga, but it was like, oh, while he's saving him,

282
00:12:20,799 --> 00:12:23,080
there's a little bit of wind in the background, versus

283
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,639
this they like blew away, which I feel like very

284
00:12:27,879 --> 00:12:28,519
go ahead.

285
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,399
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I think I saw a social

286
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,399
media post or something or somebody screened out at a

287
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,679
social media post by like the actor where he mentioned

288
00:12:34,759 --> 00:12:36,639
dragons like double fruit, and it's like, did we just

289
00:12:36,639 --> 00:12:38,840
get like a live action confirmation that dragon has a

290
00:12:38,879 --> 00:12:39,559
double fruit, Like.

291
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: We actually never really knew.

292
00:12:40,879 --> 00:12:43,279
Speaker 3: We all assumed and we all get we all guessed

293
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,720
maybe he has the storm fruit, maybe he has the

294
00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:49,200
destiny Destiny note no me, maybe he has the wind fruit.

295
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:50,639
Speaker 1: We've all had these theories.

296
00:12:50,799 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 3: But technically we never even really knew that he had

297
00:12:53,159 --> 00:12:56,720
a double fruit to begin with, Like no confirmation one

298
00:12:56,759 --> 00:12:59,720
hundred percent, And now the live action kind of confirmed

299
00:12:59,759 --> 00:13:03,000
it because that was not Smoker's powers, right.

300
00:13:02,919 --> 00:13:04,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that. And Uh, like I said, they

301
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,919
they're doing a lot of things with foreshadowing, right as

302
00:13:06,919 --> 00:13:09,799
far as Uh introduced Sea prism Stone a little bit

303
00:13:09,799 --> 00:13:12,600
earlier on, which makes sense, a lot of people kind

304
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,080
of assumed theory wise that that's why Lufy can really

305
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,240
move anyways that that they probably would have had that

306
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:22,799
execution platform, but like they explicitly said that like in

307
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,039
the live action right, so like they're introducing concepts like

308
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:29,399
that a little bit earlier than than prior. I enjoyed that.

309
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:30,759
Speaker 1: Nice.

310
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,799
Speaker 3: Okay, so let's move on to They go through Reverse

311
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:39,720
Mountain and end up with Laboon, the cute little boy

312
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:40,879
and Coocus.

313
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 2: We kind of let you start with this one if

314
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,759
you have any any thoughts.

315
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought the I thought the whole thing with

316
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,879
Labun was interesting.

317
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 5: That he was with a crew before and then they

318
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:57,480
had to.

319
00:13:57,519 --> 00:14:00,799
Speaker 4: Leave him because the old man who owned the lighthouse

320
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,919
was saying, how it's gonna be really dangerous if Flabooon

321
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,399
keeps going, because he's gonna be pretty much eaten alive

322
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,240
by all the sea monsters out there. So they just

323
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:15,639
decided to leave him there and just sail away. But uh,

324
00:14:15,759 --> 00:14:19,159
I also like that little sequence with that Afro black

325
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,200
dude singing to him, you know that Viole. It's just

326
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,720
such a nice catchy little song. The whole the whole thing,

327
00:14:25,759 --> 00:14:28,000
I don't know, but I don't know what what the

328
00:14:28,039 --> 00:14:30,879
fuck happened to them, because they're just long gone and

329
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,519
Labun is just there trying to go through the mound

330
00:14:33,559 --> 00:14:35,559
and trying to get back to them, but the old

331
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,480
guy's like, they're gone, they ain't coming back.

332
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:40,519
Speaker 2: I don't know what the fuck happened to them.

333
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is really funny hearing Ricon's first impressions, I

334
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,679
think because like most people I talked to have read

335
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,759
the manga or watched the anime, and Ricon has not,

336
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,639
So this is I.

337
00:14:53,639 --> 00:14:58,279
Speaker 5: Don't know what My first impression is, completely raw take.

338
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,519
Speaker 4: I have no idea what's going to happ or even

339
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,240
what happened to his crew that just went.

340
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 2: But that's not necessarily important. But what is important is

341
00:15:06,519 --> 00:15:08,720
that song that they were singing is when we hear

342
00:15:08,879 --> 00:15:10,120
like throughout the series.

343
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 4: Right, So yeah, that was That was a very interesting song,

344
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,519
very cool, catchy song.

345
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: I like it, very very catchy.

346
00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:18,879
Speaker 4: But yeah, and then he had to just sedate him

347
00:15:18,879 --> 00:15:23,759
over and over again, and he swallowed the merry go

348
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,840
uh the sorry the gold marry. He swallowed it. And

349
00:15:25,879 --> 00:15:27,960
they're all stuck in there and they meet and they

350
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,919
meet VV and mister and I, and then they were

351
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,720
trying to fucking raid their ship.

352
00:15:32,799 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 5: It's pretty cool. But the sequence was awesome to see.

353
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, the music was great. A character was introduced on

354
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:41,480
that ship.

355
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 3: I guess we can't talk about spoilers, but great casting,

356
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:45,039
good laugh.

357
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:45,879
Speaker 1: I'm very excited.

358
00:15:47,159 --> 00:15:48,879
Speaker 2: He had a really good voice for the song, right,

359
00:15:48,919 --> 00:15:53,000
so it sounded I was he is that guy important

360
00:15:53,159 --> 00:15:54,159
like something may.

361
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,679
Speaker 3: Not really okay, you know, Boon's important maybe in like

362
00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:02,559
four And I.

363
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,159
Speaker 4: Have no idea what happened to lu boone because one

364
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,240
of the story. Yeah, but is he gonna come back

365
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,559
or is he just like long gone? I don't know.

366
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,919
Those are my questions, Like, those are cool characters that

367
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,840
I want to see more of.

368
00:16:18,559 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 3: It was a part I can't even say it. Man,

369
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:28,559
everything's spoiler okay. I very much enjoyed vv's introduction. Obviously,

370
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,759
she's still playing whatever her whatever her alias is, and

371
00:16:31,759 --> 00:16:34,399
she's an assassin I can't remember. But as she slowly

372
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,480
joined the crew, I came to love VV in a

373
00:16:36,519 --> 00:16:38,799
similar way that I loved her in the anime. So

374
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,799
that was great. We'll talk about mister nine. I guess

375
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,240
that whiskey peak because.

376
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: The goat what else Crocus was?

377
00:16:48,039 --> 00:16:50,159
Speaker 3: It was kind of What was really funny was Crocus

378
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,840
is supposed to be like twenty years old in the flashback,

379
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,679
and he just loves like and he's supposed to be

380
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,600
like seventy years old. When Lufy sees him, he did

381
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,200
not look twenty and seventy. He just looked like fifty

382
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:04,960
plus seventy, like seventy years old the entire time.

383
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: The hair color changed, right. That was another instance where

384
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,000
maybe they could have got two different actors. Yeah, tried

385
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,039
to play it off right, but it didn't bother me

386
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:15,519
too much. But yeah, definitely something to take note of there.

387
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 3: And in the anime, Loofy fights Lagoon, but instead this

388
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,839
time he sings to him, which I think works really

389
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,000
well with the backstory, and we get to see he

390
00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:23,839
fights him.

391
00:17:24,039 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, I wanted to see that fight.

392
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's there's a few different things done differently in

393
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:33,000
this arc, but I honestly didn't mind it.

394
00:17:33,319 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 5: How does he you guys can tell me how does

395
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:36,240
he fight him?

396
00:17:36,279 --> 00:17:37,799
Speaker 4: Because I've already seen it's more.

397
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 3: Like it's a it's it's like a battle, but they

398
00:17:40,039 --> 00:17:42,400
kind of respect each other afterwards. And then he paints

399
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,279
the the skull him crossbones on him and in a

400
00:17:46,319 --> 00:17:49,279
similar way so that he won't crash into the mountain anymore,

401
00:17:49,319 --> 00:17:50,799
and he gives them something to believe in that they're

402
00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:51,799
gonna come back around.

403
00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:54,279
Speaker 2: I'll be back to finish our duel, right because it

404
00:17:54,319 --> 00:17:55,440
was a draw this time or.

405
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: So, Yeah, something like that.

406
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,799
Speaker 2: Okay, he tears the mask off the ship, stabs it

407
00:17:59,839 --> 00:18:02,079
in the met doesn't take it easy, poor guy. It

408
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:02,880
was the animal abuse.

409
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: Peter might not approve the scene, but you know, I

410
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:06,680
like the dance.

411
00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:09,319
Speaker 3: I like the song, but like the dance again, another

412
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,640
reference to like the manga fans a little easter egg.

413
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,880
We won't get into it. We also see that on

414
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,400
the wall. Did you notice something about crocuses or crocuses?

415
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: I can't remember it around his name, he's like little

416
00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:21,640
hot recon.

417
00:18:23,799 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 4: Who is who is crocus? Again?

418
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,279
Speaker 3: Can you just remind the old light house, lighthouse, old man, Oh,

419
00:18:29,319 --> 00:18:30,200
the lighthouse, old guy.

420
00:18:30,279 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, but say it again.

421
00:18:33,279 --> 00:18:36,279
Speaker 1: Did you notice something on the walls in his in

422
00:18:36,319 --> 00:18:36,680
his heart?

423
00:18:36,839 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was what's the name?

424
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,480
He was a There was a picture of him and

425
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:42,279
gold Roger.

426
00:18:42,559 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, I just remembered there was a picture of

427
00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:49,119
him and gold Rogers. So they were like close, very close.

428
00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like he truly.

429
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,559
Speaker 5: Might be the one to find the one piece.

430
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,279
Speaker 3: One of my favorite moments from this arc was like

431
00:19:00,279 --> 00:19:04,160
reassuring Noam that she's a good navigator straight up made

432
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,880
me cry for some reason. Like, of all the fucking

433
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,279
moments to make me emotional, it's not the laboon scene

434
00:19:08,279 --> 00:19:10,880
where he's all cute and like crying and stuff. It's

435
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,400
the fucking random scene with Crocus and Nami that was

436
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:15,039
just maybe.

437
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: Emotional, but I loved it. Do you know what? You

438
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,039
even know what's I'm talking about?

439
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 2: Yeah?

440
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, he gave he gave her the device or whatever

441
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,279
that thing is she can, yeah, the log poster so

442
00:19:28,319 --> 00:19:32,720
that she can, you know, be a better navigator than

443
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,640
all the than the rest of those out there or whatever.

444
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,160
I love. You can't even yeah, I just can't even

445
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,559
speak right now. Man, I really like I enjoyed this

446
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,400
live action Like it was fine, but there were some issues.

447
00:19:48,799 --> 00:19:50,599
Speaker 2: What issues did you have with the with this art?

448
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 5: The not enough I need more is my issue?

449
00:19:57,559 --> 00:20:00,319
Speaker 4: Like a lot of like there was just a lot

450
00:20:00,319 --> 00:20:04,240
of characters that were just like in and out so fast,

451
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,680
Like I even more, what happened?

452
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: What happened to her?

453
00:20:06,799 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 4: You know how what what's gonna happen later on, I

454
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,319
mean more so quick.

455
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: It's so fast, So why don't you read the longer

456
00:20:13,519 --> 00:20:15,720
or watch the anime reconuck?

457
00:20:15,839 --> 00:20:19,839
Speaker 5: No, man, I ain't watching garbage animation or reading.

458
00:20:19,559 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: Books getting a remax one day.

459
00:20:24,079 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 4: I'll wait for I'll patiently wait for the REDI I'm

460
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,440
patiently waiting for that remake.

461
00:20:28,519 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 3: I guess that's a decent point as well, because it

462
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,839
is like they covered in one episode or two episodes,

463
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:37,279
these arcs that like sometimes take ten to fifteen episodes,

464
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,640
maybe not Logged to Logtown in reverse Mountain, but even Longtown,

465
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:46,400
it is probably like a dozen episodes with with the filler, right, Yeah,

466
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,599
so you do spend more time with Buggy and more

467
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,799
time with these characters characters versus forty minutes in and

468
00:20:51,799 --> 00:20:54,119
out forty minutes in and out. So actually, like I

469
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,319
could see that being like at the end of the day,

470
00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:59,440
while it is a series adaptation to a series, not

471
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,759
a series two movie. My biggest complaint when they do

472
00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:03,720
a series to a movie, it's not possible. You have

473
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:05,640
to make your own story up and just like rush

474
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,720
everything versus with this, they are still rushing, but at

475
00:21:08,759 --> 00:21:10,359
least it's a series to a series, But you're right,

476
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,799
recon they are trying to get through the material in

477
00:21:12,839 --> 00:21:14,000
an episode or two.

478
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, I did, I did look it up. They covered

479
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,720
a lot of episodes from the anime into into like

480
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,640
eight episodes of the live action. They covered a lot,

481
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,160
so they must have skipped a lot of filler or whatever.

482
00:21:25,599 --> 00:21:28,279
Speaker 2: I would say they skipped filler for sure, but I

483
00:21:28,319 --> 00:21:32,599
wouldn't say they necessarily like skipped too much. They actually

484
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:34,039
did a pretty good job of Like these live action

485
00:21:34,079 --> 00:21:35,839
episodes are pretty long, right, they were like an hour

486
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,559
each or so. Yeah, And I just recently watched through

487
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,799
like this section of One Piece recently because I was

488
00:21:40,839 --> 00:21:44,240
rewatching with one pace. I'd never seen it before. So

489
00:21:44,279 --> 00:21:46,599
I just finished Drum Island with that. And I don't

490
00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:47,960
know a lot of the arcs that you like, even

491
00:21:48,039 --> 00:21:50,440
Drum Island is like eight episodes maybe of like one pace,

492
00:21:50,519 --> 00:21:53,960
So like it's they like they basically gave it just

493
00:21:54,039 --> 00:21:56,680
as much, if not more time like in the live action. Uh.

494
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,799
And I feel like they were able to cover a

495
00:21:58,799 --> 00:22:01,359
lot of ground. They didn't really didn't really feel like

496
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:02,119
they left a lot out.

497
00:22:02,279 --> 00:22:06,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. Okay, let's.

498
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 3: Let's keep it moving also the backstory, and we got

499
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,920
to see a character very very excited about that. But

500
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,519
let's move on to Whiskey peak.

501
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 2: I just want to give a shout out to the

502
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,960
best joke in the series because that happened in the

503
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:25,759
What's the Joke? The Litla Boon arc. So Zorro is

504
00:22:25,799 --> 00:22:27,759
like more of a serious character. I feel like in

505
00:22:27,799 --> 00:22:29,680
the live action he doesn't get a lot of his

506
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,480
comedic moments, but the actor kind of nailed it with

507
00:22:32,559 --> 00:22:34,839
like there's like, I'm gonna hit that punching bag looking

508
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,759
thing and he's like, you mean the ubula. He's like, ah,

509
00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:41,119
so it's a girl whale? Why it went all over me?

510
00:22:42,559 --> 00:22:43,079
I enjoyed that.

511
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and it's a good reference. It's a reference

512
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,200
to a movie. I think.

513
00:22:46,319 --> 00:22:52,799
Speaker 4: Right, probably guys, I completely forgot the Zoro Mehawk moments

514
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:55,079
again with that, he's like seeing his mirage.

515
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 5: That was awesome.

516
00:22:56,319 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, right.

517
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,799
Speaker 4: I love that little edition of putting me Awk back

518
00:22:59,839 --> 00:23:01,440
in two. Season two.

519
00:23:01,599 --> 00:23:04,279
Speaker 3: I think everyone liked me Hawk wanted to see more.

520
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,119
You don't see that much more of him in the

521
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,720
anime or manga, so by having like the Mihawk mirage

522
00:23:09,079 --> 00:23:14,759
along his journey, just talking shit great.

523
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,839
Speaker 1: I can't get enough of it.

524
00:23:17,279 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think there was an interview with the actor

525
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,680
that plays Zoro two where you know, he was determined

526
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,839
to actually fight like one hundred guys. He's like, they

527
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,160
will count if we don't. Like He's like, people will

528
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,359
count and they'll say, like, he didn't actually fight a hundred.

529
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,440
So I thought it was cool. They had him kind

530
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,799
of counting throughout and it was a very extended fighting scene,

531
00:23:36,799 --> 00:23:38,480
but it was a very well done one. I think. Yes,

532
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:39,519
there was.

533
00:23:39,559 --> 00:23:41,799
Speaker 3: The choreography for that fight scene was really good. There

534
00:23:41,839 --> 00:23:43,359
was a couple of moments in it that I'm like.

535
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,279
Speaker 1: Wow, that was his top notch. That was so sick.

536
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:48,799
Speaker 3: So I enjoyed Zoro Versus one hundred men. I think

537
00:23:48,839 --> 00:23:52,079
my highlight of this arc is mister Nine's like acting

538
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,759
towards the end. He was a character that I didn't

539
00:23:54,799 --> 00:23:57,480
care about in the anime, and I'm like, Wow, this

540
00:23:57,559 --> 00:23:58,680
guy's got the will.

541
00:23:58,519 --> 00:24:01,799
Speaker 4: Of DNA and you will be missed. I don't even

542
00:24:01,839 --> 00:24:02,720
know if he's dead or not.

543
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: I think he did a pretty good job at the

544
00:24:05,799 --> 00:24:08,559
end of the Like I don't know, the actor did great,

545
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:17,200
don't take me wrong, but I need I think so,

546
00:24:17,279 --> 00:24:19,839
I don't know, but in the in the anime and manga,

547
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,440
he kind of goes out in the blaze of glory

548
00:24:22,039 --> 00:24:24,799
and uh Andmmedy at least acknowledges or he at least

549
00:24:24,799 --> 00:24:28,240
acknowledges to VV, like, uh, you know, run, I'll take

550
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,480
care of them here while you run. It's like because

551
00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:32,960
you're my partner. Like he kind of makes that self

552
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,279
sacrifice of the anime. So I enjoyed that part of

553
00:24:35,279 --> 00:24:35,680
his character.

554
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 3: They both they both do assault sacrifice in each But

555
00:24:39,039 --> 00:24:40,880
you're saying VV doesn't get to see this one.

556
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, which you know, it is what it is.

557
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,720
It's not a big change, but true, it's a good point.

558
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,559
Speaker 3: Still give me this moment, but this is I love

559
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:50,319
talking to different people about it, so I get to

560
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,200
hear all these different perspectives because he just did He

561
00:24:52,519 --> 00:24:54,720
acted so well and I didn't care about mister nine

562
00:24:54,759 --> 00:24:56,799
in the original and I didn't care about it in

563
00:24:56,799 --> 00:24:58,359
the original as well. He made me care about him

564
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,440
in this one, which I thought, like, okay, so he

565
00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:01,319
enhanced the character.

566
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: But that's a good point, like it been. It would

567
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,839
have been nice if somehow VV new yeah, which like.

568
00:25:06,799 --> 00:25:08,079
Speaker 2: I said that was not a big deal at all.

569
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,359
It's like there's gonna be changes and stuff whenever you

570
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,359
you're adapting the story right as long as the main

571
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,240
character parts are there, and he did get his moments.

572
00:25:14,319 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 3: So how did you guys feel about Miss Golden Week.

573
00:25:17,079 --> 00:25:19,920
I believe her name is is the Golden Week, the

574
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:20,880
one of the actor weight?

575
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,559
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, she's a Miss Valentine.

576
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 1: Valentine Okay, yeah, Valentine is.

577
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 3: With another forgetable character that I think they brought to life,

578
00:25:30,799 --> 00:25:31,400
at least for me.

579
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,839
Speaker 4: I think the whole Baroque works is an interesting group

580
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:41,039
of villains. You've got multiple ones with cool devil fruit

581
00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:43,559
powers like changing your weight, you got booger bombs, you

582
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:49,400
got wax powers, and yeah, they're definitely a very interesting bunch,

583
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,839
very powerful. Of course, they put up some really good

584
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,359
fight scenes and shit, but they ultimately just failed a

585
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,279
lot of the times. But they did really well with

586
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:01,200
the acting, so I enjoyed them.

587
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: Yeah. I didn't have too many strong feelings form his

588
00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:06,480
Valentine and Number five like either way in the anime

589
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,000
or in the live action, but I feel like, uh no,

590
00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:12,000
I feel like they did pretty well, like you know,

591
00:26:12,039 --> 00:26:14,480
adapting them bringing them to life, and then uh, they

592
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,440
had mister five throw a few dad jokes in there

593
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:22,000
and stuff, so I enjoyed those. But tell ya, I

594
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,599
guess one big change is that they uh, you know

595
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,319
another one. I don't mind too much, but they made

596
00:26:26,319 --> 00:26:28,079
it to where Zoro and Loofy didn't fight in the

597
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,799
live action, which, honestly, like I said, that one doesn't

598
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:31,519
really bother me.

599
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 3: See I mentioned that one bothering me in the other podcast,

600
00:26:35,039 --> 00:26:38,960
not because it was really necessary, just because it was

601
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,079
a moment that I really enjoyed. Because I'm a big

602
00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:43,400
I've always kind of been into power scaling a little bit,

603
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,400
so just getting to see them like go hard against

604
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,759
each other and like be kind of even in strength,

605
00:26:49,759 --> 00:26:52,240
it just kind of like validating things I already thought,

606
00:26:52,279 --> 00:26:54,720
even though it's not a perfect example because obviously Zora

607
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,319
doesn't want to maybe like kill them or or go

608
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,319
too hard and saying with them be Loofy, but Loufy

609
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,240
was like, obviously, I don't know what happened what he

610
00:27:02,319 --> 00:27:05,279
oh it was? It was really stupid, honestly, because Lufy's

611
00:27:05,279 --> 00:27:07,400
supposed to be a good judge of character, which they

612
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:08,359
did really well in this arc.

613
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,519
Speaker 1: In the live action. He's a good judge of character.

614
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:11,680
Even though they are assassins.

615
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,519
Speaker 3: He knows that they're good people and there were all

616
00:27:13,559 --> 00:27:15,960
period of reasons for it, So it doesn't make sense

617
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,039
for him to wake up and be like, they gave

618
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,400
us food, they gave us strinths, why the fuck did

619
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,240
you fuck you?

620
00:27:23,319 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: And they started fighting like it doesn't make sense.

621
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 2: Really, he was a man that has good character could

622
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,200
be blinded by bribes. Okay, could you know it? Can

623
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,839
it could change your blur your vision there for a bit,

624
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,519
So I either way, I don't mind it.

625
00:27:35,599 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, So when I think about it, logically, it probably

626
00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:39,599
makes sense to take it out. But at the same time,

627
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,480
I just liked seeing lufian Zoro fight, So no, that's fair.

628
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 2: Changes that are slight to the plat don't bother me

629
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,640
as long as like the core of the character is

630
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,799
kind of there, right, and then they don't change that.

631
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:52,680
So that's one of those.

632
00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 5: Uh.

633
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 2: I think they did pretty well on Whiskey Peak. I

634
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:56,400
didn't have very many complaints at all here.

635
00:27:57,039 --> 00:27:58,279
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, okay.

636
00:27:58,319 --> 00:28:00,319
Speaker 4: Oh by the way, guys, before we keep going with

637
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,119
a podcast, make sure to download Viking Rise and reach

638
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,000
the goals to support Briggs eighty A. Please do it now,

639
00:28:06,079 --> 00:28:06,880
Thank you very much.

640
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: Let's thank you. It's funny.

641
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 3: I was thinking about mentioning it because I am I

642
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,519
am sponsored by them for like another like two weeks,

643
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:15,920
I think. So, I guess if this is on YouTube

644
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,279
or on Spotify, I will include a link download a

645
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,680
Viking Rise. Just by downloading the game, you could support

646
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,759
the channel. I get like five bucks for every download,

647
00:28:22,759 --> 00:28:24,839
which is kind of insane for the first fifty downloads.

648
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:26,400
And then if you want to play the game, play it.

649
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,079
If you don't like it, stop playing. You don't even

650
00:28:29,079 --> 00:28:30,480
need to play it if you don't want to, completely

651
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:30,799
up to you.

652
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,279
Speaker 1: Appreciate you. Thank you Ricon for for doing that.

653
00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: Anyway, it's basically the same thing.

654
00:28:37,079 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 3: Let's go moving on to actually know what we got

655
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:44,119
to see Ekorim or Igoram go out in the a

656
00:28:44,119 --> 00:28:47,400
Blaze of Glory that I thought was pretty cool, and

657
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,079
I think they actually killed him in this one, like

658
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:50,559
he's done.

659
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,759
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he blew up, he's gone. You reminded me

660
00:28:53,799 --> 00:28:55,960
of my biggest complaint of this art right here. So

661
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,920
I guess I guess two complaints. So one we didn't get,

662
00:29:00,359 --> 00:29:03,240
but they did at least hint that, like probably with

663
00:29:03,279 --> 00:29:04,599
C G I and stuff, they're like, yeah, he's in

664
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,160
He's in Alabasta, we'll see him there. So we didn't.

665
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,720
So that was one. Two. We didn't get to see

666
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,640
Igorm dress up as vb Okay, that was a heroic

667
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,200
event in the anime. He came out looking exactly like her,

668
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,400
had the exact outfit at the ready, became a decoy.

669
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,759
That So, who's.

670
00:29:21,519 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: Who's gonna dress up as her in Alabasta?

671
00:29:23,559 --> 00:29:27,519
Speaker 3: It could bend his wife.

672
00:29:26,519 --> 00:29:28,039
Speaker 2: It could be you know, it could be.

673
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 4: But oh is Alabasta the the the arc in season three?

674
00:29:31,319 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the next one.

675
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:34,839
Speaker 2: That's yeah, that's that they're going to. So that's like

676
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:35,640
the name of the place.

677
00:29:35,759 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 3: Also, since it is said they decided to kill him off,

678
00:29:38,759 --> 00:29:40,720
I think it was a good choice making Robin not

679
00:29:40,839 --> 00:29:44,440
do it because in the in the anime Longans, Robbin

680
00:29:44,519 --> 00:29:46,319
is the one who takes him out, but he lives,

681
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,920
so if they do decide that he's just dead. I

682
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:51,960
like the fact that it was mister five or whoever

683
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,519
it was, instead of Robin, since Robin is eventually going

684
00:29:54,519 --> 00:29:55,759
to blah blah blah.

685
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:56,599
Speaker 1: Let's keep it moving.

686
00:29:58,799 --> 00:30:00,839
Speaker 3: I mean I'm I'm assuming'm say in Ricon knows, but

687
00:30:00,839 --> 00:30:02,960
you know what, if he didn't know about Yojoja, then

688
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,839
maybe he might not know of about Miss Sunday.

689
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,839
Speaker 5: Who Who's y'all?

690
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,799
Speaker 1: I'm speaking, I'm speaking in code, yes, okay.

691
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,039
Speaker 4: I don't know anything of what you guys are talking

692
00:30:16,079 --> 00:30:17,279
about besides of what I've seen.

693
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,119
Speaker 1: Is it miss all Sunday? Is that her alias? For?

694
00:30:20,119 --> 00:30:25,119
Speaker 2: For for Miss all Sunday? Is the mister Zero's partner?

695
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: Got it? Okay?

696
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 5: Oh the are you talking about?

697
00:30:30,319 --> 00:30:32,079
Speaker 4: What was her name? We saw it? We saw at

698
00:30:32,079 --> 00:30:37,480
the very end, Robin Robin Yeah, yeah, okay, Robin Yeah.

699
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 2: I like how they started the season by introducing her

700
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,240
though that that scene of her fighting everybody.

701
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 4: I had no idea who she was until like the

702
00:30:44,319 --> 00:30:48,200
very very last few seconds where they announced her through

703
00:30:48,319 --> 00:30:50,559
the wanted posters. And by the way, I like that

704
00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:53,440
they brought the wanted posters back. The animations pretty cool,

705
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,000
especially for the baroque works being a little bit more

706
00:30:56,359 --> 00:31:00,440
different than the traditional wanted posters. But pretty well done.

707
00:31:00,599 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 3: Okay, we got to keep this moving because I do

708
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,599
have to go in like twenty minutes. Moving on to

709
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,039
Whiskey Peak, whiskey. You know, we just talk about whiskey peak.

710
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:09,359
Speaker 4: Oh my god.

711
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: Moving on to Little Garden. I just woke up, guys.

712
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,119
Moving on to the Little Garden.

713
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 3: The dinosaurs and the giants did look a little jankie

714
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,039
at times, but for the most part it had the

715
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:19,759
heart of one piece and it had so many, so

716
00:31:19,799 --> 00:31:22,519
many great moments like oossop, Lord of Destruction.

717
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: Look, what did you guys think of the arc?

718
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 4: I think that was the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

719
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,799
I think that I think the Little Garden arc to

720
00:31:34,839 --> 00:31:36,000
me was my least favorite.

721
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:36,839
Speaker 1: It was so dumb.

722
00:31:37,519 --> 00:31:40,039
Speaker 2: It's one of the ones I had the most criticisms about,

723
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,160
so for sure it was good overall. Still, I did

724
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,400
enjoy Little Garden, so did I. But yeah, I had

725
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,720
a lot of criticisms on this one.

726
00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:52,799
Speaker 3: So my one of my complaints small complaint, but I

727
00:31:52,839 --> 00:31:55,759
didn't like that they changed it like Zoro and Soogy

728
00:31:55,839 --> 00:31:58,279
both fought the same animal and were like who killed it?

729
00:31:58,319 --> 00:31:59,519
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. When it was.

730
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 2: Supposed to make CGI, they didn't.

731
00:32:02,079 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 3: Have to make two different CGI animals. But the whole

732
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,440
thing was like it was a hunting contest, and then

733
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,359
we find out that Dorian Broggy also had the hunting contest,

734
00:32:09,559 --> 00:32:11,680
and it was like what caused both of their fights

735
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,400
but they both Yeah, I don't know.

736
00:32:14,559 --> 00:32:17,119
Speaker 4: I bet you can kick a Tyronosaurus reres in real

737
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,440
life and kill it instantly.

738
00:32:18,519 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: That's so realistic.

739
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,519
Speaker 3: This show is not realistic precon it's in it even

740
00:32:22,519 --> 00:32:24,559
more over the top than that. I do like the

741
00:32:24,559 --> 00:32:27,359
fact that like Zorro and Sondry are both like capable

742
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,519
of something like that, because it makes sense from the

743
00:32:30,559 --> 00:32:33,559
anime that Sondi could jump and break a t rex's neck,

744
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,000
especially with the stuff that we know now about his character.

745
00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, world building wise too, like it shows in the

746
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,880
anime they were recon those caves that they were in,

747
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,079
like those giant like white husks that you see from

748
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,160
uh from far out when you're looking at the island.

749
00:32:48,599 --> 00:32:51,160
Those are like the carcasses of the things that Dori

750
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,839
and Broggy hunted, right, so uh oh yeah, that was

751
00:32:53,839 --> 00:32:55,359
one of those things they were regaled at the end

752
00:32:55,359 --> 00:32:57,400
of the ark and like the anime where they they're

753
00:32:57,519 --> 00:32:59,640
like where they kind of have it fade away and

754
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,640
show show the caves now, But it's like a world

755
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,720
building thing where it's just I don't think that was

756
00:33:04,759 --> 00:33:06,480
in the live action per ses.

757
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 4: This is also one of my critiques in the show

758
00:33:10,519 --> 00:33:14,960
between the two giants. I just didn't really particularly enjoy

759
00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:19,000
those those two or the whole idea why they were

760
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,359
sucking dueling what they're doing.

761
00:33:21,359 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 5: It is because uh.

762
00:33:23,279 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 2: I had an argument and in their culture that you

763
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,599
you know, if you have a you know, your honor

764
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,920
put in doubt or what have you and stuff, you

765
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,279
might might duel to the death right in order.

766
00:33:34,119 --> 00:33:37,279
Speaker 4: To No, no, no, I'm talking about the the reason why

767
00:33:37,279 --> 00:33:40,160
they were dueling and why it took all these years.

768
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: They forgot about it, They forgot what was no then.

769
00:33:44,119 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 5: They mentioned it at the end.

770
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,279
Speaker 2: They had the same type of argument where they like

771
00:33:48,359 --> 00:33:50,400
both hunted something and then they had an argument.

772
00:33:50,599 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's because they both hunted something and they

773
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,960
were arguing I think who killed it or or whatever.

774
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,319
Speaker 3: I just thought had who had the bigger seats In

775
00:33:59,359 --> 00:34:02,799
the anime, Zorro and Sonji both went hunting and they

776
00:34:02,839 --> 00:34:05,160
were arguing about who had the bigger because one of

777
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,079
them was like thicker and one of them was longer,

778
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,039
who had the bigger? Like hunt and it was a

779
00:34:10,119 --> 00:34:13,559
paralleled dory and Broggy's argument that they forgot about because

780
00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:16,000
they both caught a sea king and bested a huge

781
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,159
sea king, and they were arguing about who was the

782
00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:20,280
bigger hunt of the day or bigger catch of the day,

783
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,440
and then they started fighting over it, and then they

784
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,320
fought for so many years and drawed so many times

785
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:25,760
they forgot why they were even fighting.

786
00:34:26,079 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: And I do think it added a little bit of

787
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:28,480
value to the arc.

788
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 3: It also even just like like building wise, the island

789
00:34:33,039 --> 00:34:36,599
itself was those caves like Jordan mentioned were the sea

790
00:34:36,679 --> 00:34:39,639
king's bones, and it just it just little cool things

791
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,679
like that that I really appreciated as a Wumpiece fan.

792
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:43,719
And they did remove that, so and then that's a great,

793
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,400
a great criticism.

794
00:34:44,679 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 2: I mean, those are things I noticed, but those were

795
00:34:48,039 --> 00:34:50,800
not my biggest criticisms of the arca. There was there

796
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,360
was two that really bothered me, or one that really

797
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,199
bothered me, another one that just kind of whatever, but

798
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,840
it did bother me. The biggest one I think was

799
00:34:59,559 --> 00:35:02,519
how they interpreted. And like I said, I haven't read

800
00:35:02,519 --> 00:35:04,320
any of the Elboff arc in the manga, so maybe

801
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,960
you can correct me on this if I'm wrong or

802
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:10,880
misinterpreting it. Like how they interpreted their dual and like

803
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,760
the religion of like elbowf right, So whenever they're fighting

804
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:21,199
each other, you know, they they take the alcohol right

805
00:35:21,199 --> 00:35:23,480
beforehand it blows up and like they don't really realize

806
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,639
what happened in the live action and uh, you know,

807
00:35:27,639 --> 00:35:29,079
that's one way to maybe go about it. But I

808
00:35:29,079 --> 00:35:31,800
feel like that takes away a lot from uh, you know,

809
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,000
manga and anime wise and stuff. What happened was, uh

810
00:35:35,519 --> 00:35:38,079
was he drank it beforehand it exploded. He knew it,

811
00:35:38,119 --> 00:35:41,679
but like it affected him a lot. But in his

812
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,880
mind he's like, that's that's you know, that's divinely ordained, right,

813
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,519
Like if that's what happens, that was uh you know,

814
00:35:48,599 --> 00:35:49,639
that's the way it was meant to be.

815
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: Like that was that was that was Odin's decision exactly.

816
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,360
Speaker 2: Knowing he's probably going to die because of that, right,

817
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,400
So it takes away like the weight of that. I

818
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,719
feel like that was my biggest thing that bothered me

819
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,639
was I feel like they just and then they acted

820
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,559
like towards the end that like the you know, oh,

821
00:36:07,559 --> 00:36:08,920
it was a stupid reason we were fighting, so we

822
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,079
probably shouldn't fight anyways. And then they started another fight.

823
00:36:11,159 --> 00:36:13,440
It's like the reason doesn't matter. Like I feel like

824
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,360
they missed like the heart and soul of like why

825
00:36:16,159 --> 00:36:18,039
those warriors were kind of going at it and like

826
00:36:18,159 --> 00:36:20,679
why uh, and the fact that they would have chosen

827
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,199
to regardless of a you know, things like that happening

828
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,039
on the sideline right that are outside of their control,

829
00:36:26,159 --> 00:36:28,400
so they wouldn't have seen it as cheating. They're like,

830
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,480
this is just like preordained by Odin.

831
00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:31,679
Speaker 1: He's a warrior.

832
00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 3: He's going into battle no matter the circumstances as well exactly, although.

833
00:36:35,199 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: I just I don't know.

834
00:36:36,559 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 3: I do agree with you, Jordan, but I also kind

835
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,079
of disagree, just because there's a moment during the fight

836
00:36:41,119 --> 00:36:44,480
where his stomach like explodes and he knows that something happened,

837
00:36:44,559 --> 00:36:48,239
and he could have easily been like like let's pause

838
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,840
the fight whatever, like like there was someone, there was

839
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,039
some outside force that impacted this, like he.

840
00:36:53,039 --> 00:36:55,559
Speaker 1: Knew even though he didn't he didn't know prior to

841
00:36:55,639 --> 00:36:55,880
the fight.

842
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,519
Speaker 3: It happened during the fight, and he knew that a

843
00:36:57,559 --> 00:37:00,519
bomb fucking exploded inside of him or something happened whatever,

844
00:37:00,639 --> 00:37:02,480
whatever it may be. So I feel like it had

845
00:37:02,519 --> 00:37:04,599
a similar weight for me where it's just like he's

846
00:37:04,639 --> 00:37:07,280
fighting anyway. He could say like, at the end of

847
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,280
the day, they're boys, Like I know they've been fighting

848
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,119
by the end of the day. I'm sure the other

849
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,000
giant wouldn't have wanted to fight him in a week

850
00:37:14,039 --> 00:37:15,880
in state, So he could have been like, there's someone

851
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,719
else on the island that fucking blew up my stomach

852
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:18,840
or something happened.

853
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 1: Let's pause for a second.

854
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 3: But he would never do that, So I feel like

855
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,519
it had a similar It did have a similar weight.

856
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:25,519
Speaker 1: To me as a viewer at least.

857
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe, and maybe I am being too nitpicky. I

858
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,119
guess it just felt a little bit different, like him

859
00:37:30,119 --> 00:37:32,280
marching in the battle knowing he's already injured, versus like

860
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,199
a happening midfighter.

861
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: Trust me, bro, I could be nipkey. I could be

862
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:35,599
nippicky as well.

863
00:37:35,639 --> 00:37:38,159
Speaker 3: There's a scene in Logtown where Zoro goes to grab

864
00:37:38,199 --> 00:37:40,199
the sword and then this one he just grabs it

865
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:41,840
and then and then someone else has to tell him

866
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,960
that it's cursed or he kind of notices after he

867
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,360
pulls it out, versus in the anime, he like he

868
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,000
feels all the handles and he just like this one,

869
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,280
This one's cursed.

870
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,159
Speaker 2: This is the one that takes me into my other,

871
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,840
That takes me into my other. Nitpick is is all

872
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,679
the things that have to do with like Lufy's instinct,

873
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,360
so like it made it kind of goofy when he

874
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,400
was fighting mister this time around, because he did not

875
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,400
hit the right guy at all, whereas like, uh, you know,

876
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,400
fighting in the in the manga, like he hits number

877
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,719
three right away and he's like, how did you know

878
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:09,079
it was me?

879
00:38:09,159 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 3: He's like instinct, like yeah, Like the coward is gonna

880
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,400
hide in the back the strate, the one who strategized.

881
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: Is gonna be the furthest away from danger, right, yes,

882
00:38:17,559 --> 00:38:18,400
and yeah.

883
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,639
Speaker 2: Trying to make the fight like maybe longer or something.

884
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,599
I'm not sure, but I agree there was like little

885
00:38:24,599 --> 00:38:25,800
things like that that kind of bothered me.

886
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: I agree.

887
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 3: Wow, I'm gonna call the one podcast praising one piece

888
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,840
live action and the next one grossing it.

889
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,639
Speaker 5: My verdict, Little Garden trash.

890
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:37,679
Speaker 4: Okay, let's move on.

891
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, Little Garden sucked. Moving on.

892
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: I still like the I still liked it.

893
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,119
Speaker 5: I loved Orangetown. Orangetown was better than the Little Guard.

894
00:38:46,159 --> 00:38:47,119
Speaker 4: And let's just say that.

895
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 2: Orgetown is probably the best arc in the live action

896
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,400
so far. So it's that's true.

897
00:38:51,679 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 3: Okay, moving on to what's next, Drum Island. We go

898
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,599
right to Drum Island because now we got hit with

899
00:38:58,639 --> 00:39:00,920
the with the prehustory disease.

900
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so this was my biggest character criticism that like

901
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,280
made me kind of rethink everything else, like in hindsight

902
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,960
of like how they handled writing the women over the

903
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,440
course of the season. So one of my favorite moments

904
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,840
in like four Nami and One Piece is she's a

905
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,840
very strong woman, right, we know that based on how

906
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,079
she handled Coco Yashi Village. She's very self sacrificial when

907
00:39:22,079 --> 00:39:24,320
it comes to like big things for those that she

908
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:28,440
cares about. And in the anime and manga and whatnot,

909
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,159
we see that journey between Little Garden and Drum Island

910
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,719
of her trying to push on anyways, and we see

911
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,760
how lost everybody kind of is without her as like,

912
00:39:38,199 --> 00:39:40,360
you know, she she's suffering from a fever, but she

913
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,719
keeps trying to navigate throughout that, so she's pushing through

914
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,480
it and then she you know, in the live action

915
00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:49,840
we had number five mentioned how bad things have gotten

916
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,000
in Alabasta. In like the newspaper, but in the manga

917
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,159
and stuff, she hides that from VV because she doesn't

918
00:39:55,159 --> 00:39:56,519
want her to worry about it if she doesn't have

919
00:39:56,599 --> 00:39:59,400
to write, She's like trying to take those burdens upon herself.

920
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,400
So how they handled on me being sick versus her

921
00:40:02,519 --> 00:40:04,840
just passing out and waking up four days later and

922
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,400
the live action, I feel like that that bothered me

923
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,239
a lot too, where I'm like, you're taking out some

924
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,920
of the moments where she's like silently suffering, the like

925
00:40:12,039 --> 00:40:13,760
showing that internal strength, right.

926
00:40:13,679 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: So I think that's that's a good point as well.

927
00:40:17,039 --> 00:40:18,519
Speaker 3: I do think it's probably just had a time thing

928
00:40:18,559 --> 00:40:20,800
where they're like, we need to keep them moving moving

929
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,840
and get everything done at eight but eight episodes, so

930
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,039
her just waking up four days later is like a

931
00:40:25,079 --> 00:40:27,000
pretty easy way of doing it, but you do lose

932
00:40:27,039 --> 00:40:28,360
something in the process.

933
00:40:28,519 --> 00:40:30,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, And like there's a lot of scenes that they

934
00:40:30,679 --> 00:40:32,440
took out where I'm like, I kind of understand it.

935
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:36,800
You don't want to animate like a bunch of bear bunnies, right,

936
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,480
Like things like or like that you'd have to do

937
00:40:38,519 --> 00:40:40,599
CBI for Like, there's things I get where I'm like

938
00:40:40,599 --> 00:40:41,920
that one I feel like it would have been very

939
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,079
easy because it's just all the very It just takes

940
00:40:44,079 --> 00:40:46,000
place there on the ship. Maybe you have to do

941
00:40:46,039 --> 00:40:49,199
some weather stuff, but uh, I don't know. I was

942
00:40:49,199 --> 00:40:50,960
sad to see go. That's one of my favorite moments

943
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:51,840
for nominal.

944
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:52,639
Speaker 1: All right, good point.

945
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 3: Let's talk about something positive with Drum Island. Doctor here Look.

946
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,440
Phenomenal performance and my favorite character in season two, probably

947
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,320
my second character overall, seven favorite, second favorite character overall

948
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,679
for the live action. What an amazing backstory and my

949
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,920
favorite episode in the In the arc thoughts Ricon and

950
00:41:12,039 --> 00:41:15,360
Jordan on Doctor here Look and Chopper in the backstory,

951
00:41:16,159 --> 00:41:16,960
I love here Look.

952
00:41:17,079 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 2: Chopper has one of the best backstories. But I'm interested

953
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:24,039
to hear hear Ricon talk about the hamsters.

954
00:41:25,079 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 1: Hilarious.

955
00:41:26,119 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 4: So Doctor Herelik was an interesting character for sure, interesting hairstyle.

956
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 5: Let's let me just get out out of the way.

957
00:41:35,199 --> 00:41:39,079
Speaker 4: But yeah, he just finds the hamster and he's injured,

958
00:41:39,079 --> 00:41:41,440
and he takes the hamster back to his crib and

959
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,440
he treats the hamster, and the hamster can speak and

960
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,199
he can even transform into Giga Hamster, which is pretty badass.

961
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 5: And uh, pretty much the hamster.

962
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,159
Speaker 4: Chopper wants to become a doctor, so here Look teaches

963
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,840
him how to become a doctor. He teaches a medicine

964
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,039
and all that stuff because he wants Chopper to become

965
00:41:59,039 --> 00:42:03,679
a doctor fulfill his and here Look dies as a

966
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:10,400
hero because he tricks Chopper into getting a poison mushroom

967
00:42:10,519 --> 00:42:12,800
where Chopper thought it was like a mushroom to.

968
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 5: Heal his incurable disease.

969
00:42:15,559 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 4: So he drinks it and goes out with a fucking

970
00:42:18,559 --> 00:42:22,360
bang at Wopple's castle and just explodes.

971
00:42:23,159 --> 00:42:25,159
Speaker 3: I have a question for Jordan. Also, that was the

972
00:42:25,199 --> 00:42:27,039
worst fucking character analysis.

973
00:42:26,639 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my life.

974
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:33,519
Speaker 3: That was hilarious. Recan doctor Kreha teaches chapter how to

975
00:42:33,519 --> 00:42:37,719
be a doctor. But doctor here Look teaches Chopper to

976
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:43,760
like chase his dreams and like to trust again, I guess,

977
00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:48,440
and yeah, yeah, well anyway, let's Jordan had a question

978
00:42:49,039 --> 00:42:52,880
in the anime or the manga. There was a reason why.

979
00:42:53,119 --> 00:42:54,800
Oh they had the same reason in this. Never mind,

980
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,559
they did a good job. The whole thing was he's

981
00:42:56,559 --> 00:43:00,320
gonna die anyway, so he wanted to make sure that

982
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,280
the doctors were actually safe. Because Wopple puts like a

983
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,280
little bluff that the doctors are all sick and dying.

984
00:43:06,519 --> 00:43:07,880
So him as a doctor, he's like, I'm going to

985
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,199
go up and even though it's a trap at the trap,

986
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:12,800
I'm going to go up and make sure. And he's

987
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,440
dying anyway, and then he goes out with a bang.

988
00:43:15,639 --> 00:43:18,159
That way, Chopper's mushroom isn't the thing that kills him

989
00:43:18,199 --> 00:43:20,079
as well. And it was a great final speech, a

990
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:24,039
great final moment, and yeah, fire to his death. This

991
00:43:24,119 --> 00:43:26,400
one more thing prior to his death, he did achieve

992
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:32,320
his goal of creating that whatever chemistry that attaches to

993
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,760
the snow to create cherry blossoms for the country. He

994
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:39,039
wasn't able to do it himself, but he was able

995
00:43:39,079 --> 00:43:42,039
to at least achieve that science and pass that on

996
00:43:42,079 --> 00:43:44,199
to Chopper and doctor Kurrey. How which is good, I

997
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,679
honestly to think, all in all great arc And he complaints,

998
00:43:46,679 --> 00:43:48,920
since you've been you've been very good at finding things

999
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,079
that I kind of completely agree with, And he complains

1000
00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:52,519
about the doctor Herolock backstory.

1001
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,159
Speaker 2: Honestly, no, like I loved the way they handled a

1002
00:43:57,159 --> 00:43:59,320
doctor hero luck. I like you said, they were very

1003
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,440
faithful for like the reasoning behind it like he goes

1004
00:44:02,519 --> 00:44:05,639
up there and he's like, thank God, nobody is sick.

1005
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,719
Like I thought this could have been a national emergency,

1006
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,519
right if all the doctors get sick, then they die.

1007
00:44:09,559 --> 00:44:12,360
So he was willing to sacrifice himself just for the

1008
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,760
chance of that. He was probably gonna die anyways, But

1009
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,320
that's beside the point. I feel like you probably would

1010
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,639
have gone regardless. It's just the kind of guy he is.

1011
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:24,239
Because doctor doctor Kuh taught Chopper medicine. But like like

1012
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,800
you said, Hero Luck was had the heart right. He

1013
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,960
wanted to cure the illnesses of the heart. And he's like,

1014
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,800
when does a man die, you know, It's it's not

1015
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,039
when he's uh, it's not when he's shot, it's not

1016
00:44:36,079 --> 00:44:39,480
when he's eats a poison mushroom. It's not when he

1017
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,480
has an incuriable disease. It's all about when he's forgotten. Right,

1018
00:44:43,559 --> 00:44:45,599
So the way he lived his life was one that's

1019
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,119
I don't think any of us will forget anytime soon.

1020
00:44:50,199 --> 00:44:53,360
No no complaints for me, doctor Heroluck or the backstory.

1021
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:57,559
Speaker 3: Well said, well said, emotional heartwarming moments as well between

1022
00:44:57,599 --> 00:45:01,440
Chopper and doctor here Luck really really well done. Then

1023
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,800
we move on. One moment that I liked was Soanjy

1024
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,519
telling his backstory early on to Noa Me. I kind

1025
00:45:08,519 --> 00:45:10,480
of would have liked it. They flashed to his mom

1026
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,320
in the bed and him making the food or whatever

1027
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,400
for a second, but they assuming they'll do that later.

1028
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:18,840
But at the same time, they don't really have to.

1029
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,000
The're probably never gonna get there, so it's nice to

1030
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,440
get that things that we know now. They're adding to

1031
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,320
the story, developing the characters a little bit better early on,

1032
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,320
foreshadowing things. It was an emotional moment and I think

1033
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,599
it added to Sonji's character. One thing I want to

1034
00:45:31,599 --> 00:45:34,719
say about Sonjy in this iteration, he's definitely more of

1035
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,079
a gentleman, more of a prioritized as being like a cook,

1036
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,000
a gentleman, and.

1037
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:41,760
Speaker 1: Cool.

1038
00:45:42,159 --> 00:45:43,599
Speaker 3: I guess he tries to go for like a cool

1039
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,199
look rather than being a simp, which I don't mind

1040
00:45:47,199 --> 00:45:49,079
that change, but I do wish he was a little

1041
00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:51,880
bit more flirtatious. You don't need to be puppy dog

1042
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,480
Guy's nosebleeds, but they could have made him a little

1043
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,360
bit more flirtatious, like his first introduction him and Namy

1044
00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:02,159
where he ignores the guys at broughtier and talks to Noami.

1045
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,639
They did a good job with the flirtatiousness, and you

1046
00:46:04,679 --> 00:46:06,920
do have one scene when he's a bartender and whiskey peek,

1047
00:46:07,079 --> 00:46:08,519
but I did want to see a little bit more

1048
00:46:09,159 --> 00:46:10,800
like I think it's a big part of his character

1049
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,280
being a simp, So maybe he doesn't need to be

1050
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,519
like Mega mega simp, but just a little bit more

1051
00:46:14,599 --> 00:46:16,079
if you want to go to the gentleman route, maybe

1052
00:46:16,199 --> 00:46:20,280
just a little bit more flirtatious and I'm interested in women.

1053
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough because that is one of the parts

1054
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,280
where his character feels a little bit different, but nothing else.

1055
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,920
It's been pretty consistent because it's his character has a

1056
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:30,440
little bit different in the anime right as a lot

1057
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,719
of the characters do. But they the live action counterparts,

1058
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,239
do you feel a little bit different than the manga counter.

1059
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,800
Speaker 1: Feels the most for me. For the actual straws, he

1060
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:40,639
feels the most.

1061
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 3: And maybe I'm biased because Soni's my favorite character in

1062
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,119
the anime and manga. Yeah, and I do think the

1063
00:46:45,159 --> 00:46:48,119
anime yeah, oh no, I've met in the anime and

1064
00:46:48,159 --> 00:46:49,360
manga and the live action.

1065
00:46:49,679 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 1: I don't know who's my favorite probably.

1066
00:46:52,199 --> 00:46:53,639
Speaker 2: As far as like how they adapted it in the

1067
00:46:53,639 --> 00:46:56,360
live action, I think, I think doing a good job

1068
00:46:57,599 --> 00:46:59,159
is actor's done great so far.

1069
00:47:00,119 --> 00:47:02,559
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think i'm a little I'll choose Buggy,

1070
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:04,199
No we're talking about.

1071
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,039
Speaker 3: We're talking about the straw hats, because Buggy and doctor

1072
00:47:07,039 --> 00:47:09,519
here look are probably probably the best actors in the series.

1073
00:47:09,679 --> 00:47:11,880
I Thinknam is a really good actor as well.

1074
00:47:12,679 --> 00:47:14,039
Speaker 1: Emily Rudd is her name.

1075
00:47:14,079 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, whenever I say how they're adapted, it's

1076
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,480
not necessarily even the criticism of the actor goes behind

1077
00:47:22,519 --> 00:47:23,440
it a little bit as.

1078
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,039
Speaker 1: Well, writing one percent as well.

1079
00:47:26,079 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 3: But I do think no, he's like acting makes her

1080
00:47:29,599 --> 00:47:32,679
feel more like Nomy or just like makes me care

1081
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:36,360
a little bit more. I do feel like Songsy all

1082
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,199
and all like they're doing a good job. He just

1083
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,760
feels like a different character and it goes even more

1084
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:44,000
beyond just the simpleness. I just feel like the way

1085
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,119
that they chose to make him talk and his dialogue

1086
00:47:47,119 --> 00:47:51,280
at times, and just like the like the annunciation. I

1087
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,159
guessed it comes off as like a different type of cool,

1088
00:47:54,599 --> 00:47:56,199
and it's still cool, and I think he's doing a

1089
00:47:56,199 --> 00:47:58,760
good job, but it's a different type of cool for

1090
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,239
whatever reason. And again it's just because I think I'm

1091
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,760
just because I'm a Sondy like fucking fanboy that I'm

1092
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,800
analyzing every word that he that he says.

1093
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say, like, well, it does feel a

1094
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,679
little bit different. I do like kind of that dynamic

1095
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:13,639
he has whenever they have those scenes where it's just

1096
00:48:13,679 --> 00:48:16,239
the boys bantering around or whatnot, right like some of

1097
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,440
the scenes he has with Oosop where they're searching through

1098
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:19,840
the whale and he's like, I don't want to touch that.

1099
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,920
You touch that. So he's still doing a good job

1100
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,559
of like making him feel like part of the crew.

1101
00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:25,559
But it does feel like a little bit of a

1102
00:48:25,559 --> 00:48:26,159
different Sonji.

1103
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,119
Speaker 1: It just feel like a different a different Soanjie. But

1104
00:48:28,119 --> 00:48:28,480
you're right.

1105
00:48:28,519 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 3: I did say that in one of my clips as

1106
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,159
well when I was talking about it. I think when

1107
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,119
Sonji interacts with Zorro and when he interacts with Oosop,

1108
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,679
he feels the most like Soandji in the series.

1109
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I enjoy. So uh.

1110
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,079
Speaker 3: Anyway, we got the we got the will of d

1111
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,559
reference by doctor Gaha, we got some cool fights, some

1112
00:48:49,639 --> 00:48:52,599
different changes with the fights. I do think it was

1113
00:48:52,639 --> 00:48:55,760
I wish Lufy just took out Wopple a little bit easier.

1114
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,920
I don't mind the teamwork because teamwork is always great

1115
00:48:58,079 --> 00:49:00,880
in regards to vv jumping in, and the Saundry kick

1116
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,400
was actually cannon. He he does that in the anime

1117
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,280
where like he flings Loofy towards him.

1118
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 1: But I just felt like.

1119
00:49:06,679 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 3: Wopple is so weak compared to Loofy, and I guess

1120
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,440
they didn't want to spend two episodes building up a

1121
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,199
fight and like, yeah, to make it like, oh, Lufy's

1122
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:19,239
is so much stronger than Wopple. But it also Lufy

1123
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,159
is really strong early on compared to the people he

1124
00:49:21,199 --> 00:49:23,639
fights other than our long for the most part, So

1125
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,840
I do kind of wish that he had some cooler

1126
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,519
moments in the fight where he overpowered him.

1127
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had some power scaling stuff, because like I said,

1128
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:38,239
they haven't given the Lufy a lot of the same

1129
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,920
feats in the live action. And I did have some

1130
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,400
concerns about character writing and stuff too as well prior

1131
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,559
to this this season airing, because I remember seeing some

1132
00:49:46,599 --> 00:49:50,159
tweets about like from some of the writers in particular, right,

1133
00:49:50,199 --> 00:49:51,639
so a lot of my criticisms are gonna be like

1134
00:49:51,639 --> 00:49:54,039
the writers and I remember seeing one where they're like,

1135
00:49:54,559 --> 00:49:58,639
you know, Wopple is obviously based off of Donald Trump,

1136
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,119
because you know Trump's German name or like it originates

1137
00:50:02,119 --> 00:50:05,239
from the German name Drum, and that's where you get drum.

1138
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:09,320
And it's like it was quickly like disproven, got community noted,

1139
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,119
and you deleted it because it's like, no, it was

1140
00:50:11,159 --> 00:50:13,679
based on like Drum Island or like the drum Rockies

1141
00:50:13,679 --> 00:50:15,800
in Canada, right, don't take away their Canada reference.

1142
00:50:16,159 --> 00:50:19,119
Speaker 3: And also, dude, this was fucking I know Trump's an

1143
00:50:19,159 --> 00:50:21,079
old man and he's been around forever, but dude, he's

1144
00:50:21,119 --> 00:50:24,440
fucking Wopple's Wopple's twenty years old.

1145
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 2: Wopple was written in the year two thousands, so yeah,

1146
00:50:27,119 --> 00:50:29,400
it didn't make sense. He quickly got community noted for that.

1147
00:50:29,519 --> 00:50:32,039
It was deleted, right, which is why I had my concerns.

1148
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:34,079
But overall, you do have like a thousand plus people

1149
00:50:34,079 --> 00:50:37,599
working on this production. It turned out really well. Rum

1150
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,480
Island had the fewest complaints on like, I thought they

1151
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:41,119
did really well.

1152
00:50:41,199 --> 00:50:43,519
Speaker 3: So I do kind of hate when a lot of

1153
00:50:43,519 --> 00:50:47,199
Hollywood writers try to make things political. One Piece is

1154
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,119
inherently a political show, one hundred percent in my opinion,

1155
00:50:50,119 --> 00:50:53,639
it's a political show or has politics. Right, we have

1156
00:50:53,679 --> 00:50:57,119
the world government deceiving people and actually being fucking demons

1157
00:50:57,119 --> 00:51:01,159
and this and that and taking away high history and

1158
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,880
hiding truth and rewriting truth and stuff like that. And

1159
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,559
then we got like marines versus pirates versus revolutionaries, this

1160
00:51:07,639 --> 00:51:08,000
and that.

1161
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: So there's a lot going on.

1162
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 3: So I do think it's inherently political, But I do

1163
00:51:12,159 --> 00:51:17,039
kind of hate when writers bring politics into stories and

1164
00:51:17,079 --> 00:51:20,440
try to connect things to real life unnecessarily. But that's

1165
00:51:20,559 --> 00:51:22,360
that's a tweet, So I don't leive a fuck about it.

1166
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:23,960
It'd be different if they had a message in the

1167
00:51:24,039 --> 00:51:25,320
actual series.

1168
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:26,559
Speaker 2: In this show, That's what I'm saying. I was, I

1169
00:51:26,639 --> 00:51:28,760
was like worried a little bit, but then I like

1170
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,320
how it turned out overall, right, So and yeah, I'm

1171
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:33,639
kind of the same way. I think One Piece has

1172
00:51:33,679 --> 00:51:36,400
a lot of good generalizations that you see from patterns

1173
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,960
throughout history and stuff. Right, there's like a political essence

1174
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:41,599
to it. But trying to make like one to one

1175
00:51:41,679 --> 00:51:45,199
political comparisons, it just doesn't doesn't work a lot of time, right, Like,

1176
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:46,679
it's just not what it is.

1177
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,079
Speaker 3: My favorite one to one political comparison is that everyone

1178
00:51:49,079 --> 00:51:52,119
in New Government is demons or lizards under their So

1179
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:59,599
think I think that, But I think Biden was wearing

1180
00:51:59,599 --> 00:52:01,519
a mask. Guys, I think he was wearing a bask

1181
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,480
He died a long time ago. He's a bat, a

1182
00:52:04,519 --> 00:52:06,480
ligard man, a lizard man, is fucking Biden.

1183
00:52:07,519 --> 00:52:09,559
Speaker 2: But going back to how they handed Wopple in the

1184
00:52:09,599 --> 00:52:12,599
live action, right, I do I did? I guess I

1185
00:52:12,639 --> 00:52:14,280
had that same criticism a little bit of like he

1186
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,360
almost seemed like too tough of an opponent in the

1187
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,360
UH live action comparatively like in the manga it was

1188
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,079
just Loofy fought him real quick, Chopper fought his two

1189
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:25,760
main henchmen, and that it didn't feel like he was

1190
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,360
that big of a deal. But at the same time

1191
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,320
they did it was like a season finality of the

1192
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,159
live action, So I see why they wanted to make

1193
00:52:32,199 --> 00:52:34,320
the stakes higher, and they did kind of do a

1194
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,320
good job of like showing how he like, you know,

1195
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,159
he ate his henchman in the manga and like morphed

1196
00:52:38,199 --> 00:52:40,880
them together. He did similar things with all his troops

1197
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,400
in this one, and it felt like something that's probably

1198
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,000
something his fruit is capable of, you know, for the

1199
00:52:46,039 --> 00:52:48,840
day or whatnot, and like until he was defeated, Like

1200
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,760
that was a really cool way I think to do that,

1201
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,880
like final live action battle at the end. So Drum

1202
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:55,920
Island Ark was probably my favorite of the of the

1203
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:56,679
season overall.

1204
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,159
Speaker 3: And then the series ends on a banger. We get

1205
00:52:59,159 --> 00:53:03,000
the cherry blossom, we get Zoro putting Chopper on his shoulder.

1206
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:07,000
We get vv saying Okay, well drop me off at

1207
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:08,679
the island or I'll drop me off on a nearby

1208
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,480
ship or whatever. Thank you guys so much for you're

1209
00:53:10,519 --> 00:53:12,519
the best, and Lufy's like, what are your what are

1210
00:53:12,519 --> 00:53:15,079
you fucking talking about? We're obviously coming to Alabasta. We're

1211
00:53:15,079 --> 00:53:18,880
gonna fuck up these baroque work guys. You're one of

1212
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,639
us now type of thing. And it was just another

1213
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:26,360
moment that well done differently is just one piece being

1214
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,719
one piece that has the heart of one piece and

1215
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,119
made me feel things that the animed manga make me

1216
00:53:32,159 --> 00:53:35,599
feel consistently, and I think it ended on a great

1217
00:53:35,639 --> 00:53:38,840
note that I'm excited for season three. Final thoughts guys.

1218
00:53:39,039 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, I wanted to ask you.

1219
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,559
Speaker 4: I don't know if this is a spoiler, but at

1220
00:53:43,559 --> 00:53:47,320
the very end, that doctor said something about the will

1221
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:51,199
of D and then she mentioned O D Roger and

1222
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,239
I'm like, he is he related to Loofy because he's

1223
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,920
like Monkey D Loofy And then I remembered, Oh, his

1224
00:53:56,039 --> 00:53:59,639
grandfather is Monkey D Garb. So does Lufy have like

1225
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:01,880
a family of pirates that I don't know about?

1226
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:03,639
Speaker 1: Or something like what's going on?

1227
00:54:03,639 --> 00:54:06,320
Speaker 2: One piece introduces a lot of like questions and things

1228
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:08,800
that keep people theorizing and they won't answer until way

1229
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,559
way later. So this was this was where that was

1230
00:54:11,559 --> 00:54:12,719
introduced initially was.

1231
00:54:12,679 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 4: Does he have a bunch of monkey de family out

1232
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:16,159
there that I don't know about?

1233
00:54:16,599 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 1: So it's less about the monkey.

1234
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,760
Speaker 5: Who's next Monkey D? Henry?

1235
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,039
Speaker 1: It's Monkey D?

1236
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:23,599
Speaker 5: Is it Monkey D Roger?

1237
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 3: Like I don't know, you're not You're not ready for

1238
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,880
carro d? You No, it's gold D Roger. D D

1239
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,400
is a mystery, the will of these kind of a

1240
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,239
mystery that you'll you'll learn more about as time goes on.

1241
00:54:36,039 --> 00:54:38,239
But there's many many characters throughout the series that have

1242
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,840
this weird D in their name. We have learned a

1243
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:46,840
little bit more, but not that much more. But yeah, good, good,

1244
00:54:47,119 --> 00:54:49,320
good pickup recon good good conversation.

1245
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,920
Speaker 1: Boys. I do think they referenced it a little.

1246
00:54:52,079 --> 00:54:54,159
Speaker 3: Korea does bring up, oh, is that what he goes

1247
00:54:54,159 --> 00:54:58,440
by nowadays gold Roger when we know that he's Goldie Roger.

1248
00:54:58,559 --> 00:55:00,519
But they went about it like the he she actually

1249
00:55:00,519 --> 00:55:02,760
says the will of d which was not something that

1250
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:03,880
was said in the anime.

1251
00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,360
Speaker 1: So I do like that a little addition as well.

1252
00:55:06,679 --> 00:55:09,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, one one more thing just so I have it.

1253
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,159
I feel like I've been a little overly critical because

1254
00:55:11,159 --> 00:55:12,719
I did like the series overall, So I want to

1255
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,360
say one more good thing about Drum Island. I did enjoy.

1256
00:55:16,519 --> 00:55:19,400
I think vv's child actor that they did for the flashback,

1257
00:55:20,039 --> 00:55:21,880
thankfully they did use two actors this time. That would

1258
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,239
have been weird, uh, but she did really good. And

1259
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:29,360
then uh, I think uh vv's actor teaching Loofy diplomacy,

1260
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,079
which is a huge part for his character in this arc.

1261
00:55:31,119 --> 00:55:32,440
He has to learn, like, you know, you can't just

1262
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,679
be violent for these people here, they're scared.

1263
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 4: Uh.

1264
00:55:35,679 --> 00:55:37,599
Speaker 2: So, like I feel like the arc or the scene

1265
00:55:37,599 --> 00:55:38,880
where she got shot, so I feel like they did

1266
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,719
that pretty well right overall. The heart of it was there,

1267
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,840
and I like how they handled vv's character in the

1268
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:44,480
live actions.

1269
00:55:44,599 --> 00:55:47,639
Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. Also, VV was hot as hell,

1270
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:48,639
which helps.

1271
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:50,159
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1272
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:55,519
Speaker 3: Monkey people were complaining about her casting initially, and I think, wow,

1273
00:55:55,679 --> 00:55:57,280
she not only did she do a good job, not

1274
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,599
only did you feel like VV and acted really well,

1275
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,280
but she was also super hot. So like, all in all,

1276
00:56:02,599 --> 00:56:03,519
fantastic character.

1277
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,639
Speaker 1: Is it Monkey? D VV show Monkey d VV?

1278
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:08,199
Speaker 4: Is it? Is?

1279
00:56:08,199 --> 00:56:08,400
Speaker 5: It?

1280
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:08,599
Speaker 4: Is it?

1281
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:10,559
Speaker 5: Monkey de Buggy? Because I don't know.

1282
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:11,079
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1283
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,119
Speaker 3: He's really he's really strung up on the monkey thing

1284
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,079
when you should be focused on the D.

1285
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:18,599
Speaker 2: It's just his first name, right, It's all about the

1286
00:56:18,639 --> 00:56:20,840
dcon is I don't know, man.

1287
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,599
Speaker 4: We'll find out, I guess, or you guys already know.

Speaker 5: I'll find out soon.

1289
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,960
