Ok, that was a decent gag I’ll admit.

Its a bad gag because Zoro agreeing with him would have been funnier and more appropriate to the character.

If it gets people curious enough to check out One Piece proper then it's done its job, and it looks like it could do that.

i mean zoro calls out his finishing moves all the time too so it's funnier if he just does and never acknowledges his prior disagreement

things i liked:
the two shots of luffy strecthing were fine (though the alvida one felt kind of... empty? so they could sell the vfx?)
luffys actor is luffy
lot of the overall vfx looked ok

things that sucked:
costume design looks cheap as hell
netflix anime loves weird fisheye lenses that make zero sense
everything involving nami felt off
luffy making marvel quips

everything else:
fine, whatever

If he turns around on it and calls out his attacks then it's a good gag, if not, then the show is trash.

I feel the same way. The One Piece anime is not great. At least pacing-wise, it's very daunting. It's hard to recommend it to people, unlike something like Cowboy Bebop. So if this show is decent enough, it could encourage anime/manga likes who are put off by the anime to read the manga!

I mean all naysayers can just not watch it as the manga is still there, as well as the anime.

I don't wanna get into a whole Thing about modern writing trends, but Luffy quipping is just wrong. That's not a thing he does.

There are plenty of characters in One Piece who do! But definitely not him.

I think it’s the opposite, it won’t really appeal to anyone except those who are already fans of the series

I wanted it to be good but it looks awful. I'll still watch it, hoping that against expectations it will be good, but oof that was not a good trailer.

Not a fan of their characterization (the quips) and luffy's voice isn't as excited as I expect it to be when he's shouting he's gonna be king of the pirates. Also the stupid filter and fish eyes poo poo and whatever Depth of Field poo poo needs to go.
