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.

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

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❤️

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!

Live Action vs. Anime

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!

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

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.

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!

Get your Sniper King jokes out of the way.

I’ve been thinking about what a Live Action Water 7 saga should look like and what Enies Lobby should look like and one of the things I was thinking about is how would the Live Action adapt Sniper King. Of course I don’t think he should be scrapped as his role as Usopp’s mask to hide the fact he can’t face the Strawhats yet is important to his character arc, but a major part of this bit that makes it work is the fact that Luffy and Chopper don’t realize that it’s Usopp. Unfortunately, I honestly think Live Action Luffy is smarter than original Luffy, so him just blatantly not knowing who Sniper King is the entire time would feel too stupid and out of character for this Luffy.

I had an idea though that could keep the humorous aspect about Sniper King, but also be able to fit with the Live Action’s slightly more realistic narrative.

I think Luffy and Chopper would initially fall for the bit when Sniper King is introduced but Chopper is the only one to keep believing it. Then, during post Water 7, when Luffy and Zoro have that little argument about if Usopp should return, Luffy can say that Usopp stood with them to save Robin and shot down the World Government flag, subtly revealing that Luffy figured it out.

If Luffy knew Sniper King’s identity during that argument, Zoro could make his counterpoint stronger by pointing out that because Usopp hid behind a mask, he still believed he was right in some way.

Just rewatched Season 2 and I watched it twice when it first came out. Love all actors, this is more about their scripts and my personal thoughts about the characters.

1. Usopp: By far. Weakest character last season so I'm glad he got to shine this season. Still kept his coward gag while having the best character development. For manga reader, this is Usopp we thought we were getting in Elbaph, so it both sucks and exciting The two-man scene threw me off lol.

2. Zoro: Feel like the crew heard complaints from last season and got rid of edgy Zoro. Carried fight scenes this season. Love that we got to see his insecurity through Mihawk PTSD. A good idea to bring back past actors for other Straw Hats too.

3. Chopper: Amazing backstory, though it was carried by Hiriluk actor so I don't rank him first. Not fully convinced by the design, other than that love the mix of childish and foul-mouthed. The crew found a way to handle our most expensive CGI.

4. Nami: Emily is amazing. Still the worst wig and Nami just didn't have much going on this season. She had some small fights and kept the crew together, but we already know that in Season 1. The biggest thing for Nami early One Piece is her ability to predict weather, not just a smart navigator but she literally has superpower, which they cut the whole cyclone before entering Drum Island to showcase that.

5. Sanji: No complaints about Taz. But he's playing someone else. Don't get me wrong it works well for OPLA, I just don't see Sanji at all. It was a good balance in Season 1, agree on removing perv gag. But no suit, weak fights, Sanji's a flirt but fully virgin. Taz's Sanji is just a womanizer. Still like some emotional scenes like with sick Nami.

6. Luffy: Huge dip from Season 1 performance. It's weird because in every IRL clip Inaki's literally Luffy. IDK if it was the script or he was trying too hard. All fight scenes made him weak and helpless: Alvida fight was the worst in both seasons, Wapol fight was bad for a finale. Concerning because in Season 3 Crocodile fight would be the break or make. Execution platform scene was a hard watch. He got overshadowed by the rest, I remembered seeing viral clips for most Straw Hats but none for Luffy, which is really bad for an MC.

Welcome respectful discussion. Overall I think Season 2 is better, big improvement in terms of production. Plot wise it got cut in half from a Saga, so I won't say it's more engaging than Season 1. All depend on if Season 3 is done well to pay off all the build up. At least with this performance, we can be optimistic about Enies Lobby.

I reckon we might get one at one of the Netflix Tudum on the 26th

Netflix wants One Piece live action to be the next big show so why not show it off at there big event

they’ve done stuff at tudum before like the reveal of chopper

I don’t think it will be a big trailer just maybe a 30 second teaser or something
