Yeah I did assume they'd wait until the end of the existing anime before doing this, but I can see why it's happening now. The current One Piece anime is very successful, but a weekly kid's show that started in 1999 (and all the animation/filler jank that implies) isn't reaching the western audience that "prestige" martial arts adaptations like Jujutsu Kaisen or Demon Slayer are able to pull. One Piece is running pretty hot at the moment so it makes sense to try and really establish it in abroad.Gyges posted:Assuming they don't run it 52 weeks a year until the heat death of the universe, starting a seasonal readaptation now probably lets them only almost catch up by the time we find out what the One Piece is. Maybe not even catch up if they find a way to incorporate all the cover stories. Irony Be My Shield fucked around with this message at 15:49 on Dec 18, 2023 |

There's just not enough details about what exactly this project is yet to say for certain. I can say at least as a Netflix series it's not going to be a continuous weekly series. Probably.

SpyxFamily does have action but not the extended and near constant battles that One Piece does. I just can't see this being any easier to make than something like JJK (a show which has proved very punishing for the staff to produce even at its relatively slow rate), especially given that it's going to be scrutinized and compared to the old anime constantly. e: sticking to WIT we have Attack on Titan which changed studios at least partly due to them not being able to keep up with the tough production demands Irony Be My Shield fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Dec 18, 2023 |

Can't they just put it into the AI and tell it to "draw it again but gooder"???

mikeycp posted:a fma:b treatment is so much better than a dbz kai one. OG anime did not start making poo poo up halfway through, so there is no need for a FMB style second adaptation. I hope this version will take some liberties with style and action (maybe to the degree of Production IG OVA from 1998 or just have some creative animators for moneyshot scenes) so it would be worth watching

Erin M. Fiasco posted:The weird part to me is that the manga, like, Has No Filler and I'd even argue the early anime is pretty much paced as well as you'll get. I would have preferred a DB Kai treatment where they tightened things up and then started really working the chopping block around the (past OPLA) Water 7/Enies Lobby arcs. Even the early anime had a lot of long drawn out pauses for "effect" that were really hust there to pad for time. No arc of the One Piece anime has ever gotten up to the average pace of 3 chapters. The closest it's ever been was 2.8 in Orange Town.

God it's gonna be a long wait but I am so pumped for more. Still a little in awe that they managed to nail the feel of One Piece in live action so well.

I feel like considering everyone wants it and it would look real good to have a guest spot by an Oscar Winning Actress, there's probably gonna be a fair bit of bending over backwards to make it happen

Still feel a little bad for the cast that the strike landed right on top of the show being released so they couldn't do the full press tour for it. Charismatic bunch.

Casting Director: Jamie, will you be in our adaption of One Piece? Jamie Lee Curtis: "OF COURSE I WILL! OF COURSE I WILL! OF COURSE I WILL!"

She’s just sitting by the phone in full cosplay 24/7 by this point. Not because she’s waiting for the casting director to call, she’s just like that.
