One Piece (2023)

• USA | 8 eps

• This series is a live action adaptation of the ongoing 1997 Japanese manga series of the same name by Eiichiro Oda. The series was developed by Matt Owens and Steven Maeda. There are now 1073 episodes of the japanese anime television series created by Toei Animation, which debuted on Fuji TV in October 1999. Malaki rin expectation ko sa japan kaya sana magkaroon din 'to ng live action adaptation japanese version.

• Luffy, a pirate wearing a straw hat, is searching for "one piece" to become a king of the pirates.

• tbh, i used to think that one piece was the name of their group, may times pa na habang nanonood ako natatawag ko si luffy "uyy si one piece" nasanay ako dati na tinatawag ko siyang gano'n kasi akala ko name niya 'yon, and another one of my interpretations when i hear the title is "One " If one piece fan ka ta's nababasa mo pinagsasabi ko rito, bEh cencia na thoughts ko lang naman 'to HSHAHAHSHAHAHHAHA

• So here's the kwento, Gold Roger the so-called king of the pirates was later executed by the marines/world govt. Sabi ng kapatid ko, Gol D. Roger daw talaga ang name ni roger sa anime at napansin ko na D rin ang middle initial ng bida na si Monkey D. Luffy. wth is D?

Naexecute si roger sa harap ng maraming tao at may sinabi siya sa last words niya na "my treasure is yours to find" called ONE PIECE (pirate king's hidden treasure) which is located in a dangerous part of the sea na ewan ko kung nasa grand line nga ba talaga pero do'n 'yong route nila. May pumasok sa isip ko, what if buhay si Gold Roger at naghihintay lang siya sa mga nagbabalak kumuha ng kaniyang treasure?

• Hindi ko napanood anime nito kaya lahat ay bago sa'kin at tinatanong ko pa kapatid ko sa ibang happenings para mas magrasp ko since nanonood siya ng anime nito.

• Well executed mga fighting scenes, maganda ang editing skills, casts, visuals. Hindi pa narrelease ang series marami na agad nagkagusto sa plot at ang plot na tinutukoy nila ay si Roronoa Zoro, mga tirador ng pogi pero hindi ko itatanggi na bf ko siya HAHHAHAHAHHA dahil lalakero ako idinagdag ko si Sanji pogi na gumalaw, masarap pa...magluto hehehe---i like men who are good at fighting >>>

• So tinatanong ko nga kapatid ko sa ibang scenes kung nailabas ba 'yon sa anime, kung sino 'yon, kilala niya ba 'yon kasi tinitingnan ko kung anong nabago sa LA, sabi niya hindi niya raw alam??!! Paano naka 1.5x speed 'di naman pala kayang intindihin pinapanood??? ulitin mo 'yan HAHAHAHAHHA

About the other characters:

• Koby - may potential sila maging magbff ni luffy pero dream talaga ni koby na maging good marine. Even though they knew they would be enemies in the future, they supported each other's dreams. Koby best boy, he really likes and does his job with all his heart^^

• Shanks - i love him, he impressed me!!! Hindi ko malimutan 'yong line niya na "Not everything can be solved with violence. A man needs to be strong, but he also needs to be good." he said that to luffy, insta kuya & sa kaniya galing 'yong straw hat >>>

• Nami - ito 'yong una kong napansin dati sa poster ng anime bc malaki ang future niya. Okay lang na naiba sa LA kasi kapatid niya si Elsa at siya na si Anna T____T (pacencia na sa humor ni mari). Her fighting skills are also good and the way she sacrificed herself to Arlong hindi ko siya jinujudge kahit alam kong may gagawin siyang masama or ik na ibbetray niya sina luffy kasi alam kong may reason siya at nassense ko na talaga na babalik siya bc she still has a dream to fulfill. I love Nami because she's the best of the worst T^T

• Roronoa Zoro - the unbothered king, lagi siyang nakapoker face pero simula no'ng nasama na siya kina luffy, ang pogi ngumiti bEh nabubuo araw ko lol. Ang ganda ng smile niya parang kayang kong ipagpalit lahat makita lang siyang nakangiti hsuahshajaha. Gumagamit siya ng three swords, kaniya 'yong dalawa ta's galing sa past friend niya 'yong isa. He makes the dream and keeps his promise to become the world's greatest swordsman.

• Usopp - with his simplicity, he showed Kaya a lot of care. When he was younger, he thought pirates existed; today, he belongs to the crew. His ambition is to become a brave warrior. He also played a big part bc if it wasn't for him they wouldn't have a ship, the "Going Merry."

• Sanji - the chef and good fighter. Siguro kung may jojowain ako rito siya pipiliin ko. He's a very kind chef, natouch ako ro'n sa nilutuan niya 'yong stranger kasi nagugutom <33. Isa sa pinaka fav kong flashbacks ay 'yong kanila ni Zeff. I like how their relationship developed and i like the idea that they only have one dream--to find All Blue. The formation of their rs is very deep, natrap sila sa gitna ng dagat i think 85 days at nagkaroon sila ng hatian, small na sako kay sanji at malaki kay zeff since big nga raw siya na akala ko parehong pagkain ang laman which is hindi!!! Zeff gave up his limb bc he was starving and eaten it? Sanji was a kid back then. Hindi ko inexpect na maiiyak ako sa series na 'to not until pumasok 'yong scene na nagpaalam sina sanji at zeff sa isa't isa. Zeff once said "It's one thing to have a dream. It's another to go after it." he really encouraged him to pursue his dream.

• Monkey D. Luffy - "straw hat pirate" si luffy na sabi nila ang taong goma bc nakakain siya accidentally ng devil fruit na nagbigay sa kaniya ng powers but his weakness is sea water. Pirata ta's hindi marunong lumangoy, ironic hane. Napakafunny niya, optimistic sa lahat ng bagay, & saktan mo na siya 'wag lang ang mga kaibigan niya. I want a friend like luffy.

• I appreciated all their background stories & nag l-look forward ako sa family background ni luffy since si grandpa lang ang kilala ko. Alam ko may ibang seasons pa 'to dahil cliffhanger ang ending, tapusin niyo 'tong pinasok niyo ha 'wag niyo kami bitinin hehehe.

• my favorite villains are buggy and mihawk, parang sa kanila ko kasi naffeel 'yong thrill kaya mas nakukuha nila interest ko, pero hihintayin ko ang revenge ni alvida, go gurrrl!! (nag cheer sa kalaban huyy T__T)

MY TAKEAWAYS:

- When you have a lot of confidence in yourself, the people around you will start to believe in you as well.

- Don't be too hard on yourself. Always have a back up plan.

- Don't let innocent people get hurt because of you.

- If the path to what you want seems too easy, then you're on the wrong path.

• the iconic line "I am Monkey D. Luffy. And I'm gonna be King of the Pirates."

• Good cast/acting, visuals, editing skills, intense OST, good transition of each scenarios, may hindi nagandahan sa color grading but it's okay for me. Overall, worth to watch. 'Wag lang magfeeling entitled 'yong mga one piece fans kasi may different taste naman tayo nang pinapanood. I give it a solid 10/10!! Go! Give it a shot and watch it. Kung mas prefer niyo anime edi go, 'wag feeling entitled na porket hindi niyo nagustuhan blablabla ehh may mga ppl talagang hindi mahilig sa anime like me (qiniqiqil n'yo si mari HSHAHAHAHHAHA)
