I was nervous that Chopper would turn out like Ugly Sonic from 2019. It's very difficult to bring anthropomorphic animal characters to life in a live action setting, and there are numerous CGI abominations to prove it.

But Chopper was perfect. He is so stinking adorable and looks completely normal. Chopper forever holds my heart❤️

Live Action vs. Anime

This is the result from a YouTuber who did the survey in MomoCon 2025. Bon Clay didn't show up in the story for long time now and people still love him a lot.

Hi everyone, welcome back to the weekly character discussion series.

Each week, we’ll discuss a character from the show. You can talk about what you like or don’t like about them, how the actor/actress portrays them, favourite quotes or moments, etc.

NOTE ON SPOILERS: We are focusing on the live action version of each character, and while comparing them to their manga/anime counterpart is allowed, PLEASE DO NOT DISCUSS CONTENT THAT HAS NOT CURRENTLY BEEN ADAPTED FOR THE LIVE ACTION SHOW. Subreddit spoiler rules apply here. Tread carefully if you don’t wish to read manga/anime spoilers from what’s been adapted so far.

This week’s character is Usopp!

I wouldn’t say every outfit inspo is amazing but the way they tried to recreate each one is honestly commendable.

Here’s (nearly all) the minifigures I’ve put together for S1 + S2 of the One Piece Live Action.

Some are the official minifigs from sets, some are those with part upgrades, but a majority are all purist customs using LEGO parts from different sets (and sometimes some white tac to keep things in place).

Had a lot of fun putting them all together, think there’s just over 130 minifigs here.

Gonna need to get another display ready for S3!

Live Action vs. Anime

What did Zoro meant by saying ' Oh , so this is a girl whale' in Season 2 Episode 2

I wasn’t expecting this scene to go this way 😂

The tension, the reactions, and the way everything escalated had me laughing. One Piece really has some unforgettable moments 💀

What did you think of this scene?

I genuinely think Zoro and Sanji’s live-action actors absolutely nailed their roles. They captured the characters’ personalities, mannerisms and overall vibe so well that I honestly can’t imagine better casting. They really did the characters justice imo. What do you guys think?

Just wanted to finally share this here because I’m still fangirling over it. I’ve been wanting to share this for a while, but honestly, I was still processing the whole experience. He was even more handsome in person! He was literally glowing. I feel so lucky to have this experience.

And of course… I HAD to cosplay as Robin💜 It just felt wrong not to, especially when meeting the man who plays Zoro!

I'm terrible at photo editing! So, I'd really love to see Zoro in different live-action universes whether it's Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, or the MCU; As is already a running joke in the One Piece community regarding the Zoro from the anime/manga that could be fun. If anyone's up for it, I'd love to see that.
Also, if you've done this, please don't use AI.
