Netflix’s upcoming One piece Anime remake made me realize how hard it will be for the live action show to cover Eiichiro Oda’s 27 year old manga. Although Netflix’s One piece Adaptation never promised to cover the whole story – which, as of now, is impossible considering the manga has not ended yet – the success of season 1 made me imagine how future arcs will look like in live-action. I enjoy Eastern Blue’s version of the show, I can’t wait to see what arcs like Arabasta and Water 7 will be as they are adapted.
One piece The premiere of live-action and the immediate renewal of season 2 are not the only big news fans of Oda’s work received in 2023 outside of the manga and the current anime. In addition to the live-action adaptation, Netflix is developing a One piece Anime remake from WIT Studio. The one piece It is expected to be a modern, more streamlined anime adaptation whose pacing will be closer to the manga. The idea is to introduce Luffy and his friends to new audiences, which is also something the live-action show was expected to do.

with One piece Saving Arabasta for a potential season 3The live-action show will have spent several years just getting through the manga’s first two sagas. Such pacing is slow even when compared to the current one One piece anime, let alone the upcoming remake.

There’s no way one piece of live action covers all anime episodes, right?
One piece Season 2 won’t even get through Arabasta
The fact that One piece Season 1 was so good, it’s quite bittersweet to think about the future of the show. on the one hand, One piece Getting through each arc and giving them enough screen time indicates that The show will continue to be as faithful to Oda’s manga as possible. On the other hand, even if all the seasons would run through the manga’s arc, it would still be almost impossible for the Netflix show to cover the entire story in a reasonable number of seasons. At this rate, more than 10 seasons would be required.

Interestingly, based on the popularity of the live-action adaptation, Netflix One piece Live-action may still run when the original anime ends. This gives the live action show an interesting advantage – the producers can incorporate future events and hint at major twists much sooner than the anime.
The one piece Remake could also run during the time the current show ends.
