It would seem they finally got a live action adaptation right. Given Oda's involvement, maybe that had something to do with it. The spirit of his work was definitely captured. And they covered a whole lot of ground in just 8 episodes.

Makes me wonder how many seasons we're going to get and how they might break it up. I'm hoping for something like this:

S2: Loguetown Arc, Arabasta Saga

S3: Sky Island Saga, Water 7 Saga

S4: Thriller Bark Saga, Summit War Saga

S5: Fish-Man Island Saga, Dressrosa Saga

S6: Whole Cake Island Saga

S7: Wano Country Saga

S8: ???

It's a pretty tight schedule and we're unlikely to get that far, but I'm just happy it sounds like we're getting a season two.

Who would have thought that getting the original creator involved would help make an adaptation faithful.

Think we can get Toriyama to give live action dragon ball another chance?

@RickyRigatoni @nul sometimes i fantasize about what Dragonball or Gundam could be like if they were filmed in live action by one of the big tokusatsu studios like tsubaraya or ishimori
