According to One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda, there is one surefire way to ensure that an anime adaptation is successful. Having recently been turned into a live-action Netflix show, the One Piece manga was originally adapted into an anime series. The anime series has been ongoing for over 1,000 episodes and nearly 25 years, as it tells the story of Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates navigating the Grand Line. Along the way, Luffy hopes to become the undisputed King of the Pirates. In creating a live-action adaptation, Oda was determined to avoid failing the series. Working closely with Netflix, he served as a protective figure and worked carefully to guarantee a quality path.
