Very interesting! I'd love to see how Wit Studio handles the Marineford arc, but we'll have to wait even more years for that if they do go that far.

@a0t3a He was never depicted as black in the manga; it was an artistic choice made by Toei Animation.

This is the main takeaway from the interview video for me, adaptation is not a mere copy and paste of the original work, but understanding the essence of the series and recreating the expressions. Knowing this is the approach they will go with the series, I have faith that this series will turn out great.

They're approaching this with the mindset that it could potentially go for more than 1 season, hopefully this means that we will have a completely new set of voice actors/actresses.

Since they didn't invite the sound/music director to the interview, we didn't get much info on how they will recreate new soundtracks for the series. I do hope that they go for the same orchestral theme like the original Toei One Piece, to give it a more grandeur feel for the epic that it is.

Unfortunately, we didn't get a release date from this interview.

Nah these designs are bad, too made for a book/still images. And it’s quite disrespectful of WIT to be making this series, trampling all over the works of the Toei team from 99-01 because they smell money to be made from people too lazy to watch the original.

hohoho, Santa is here to bring up a minor lighting error on Usopp's face in the last concept drawing. This is unacceptable, we shall cancel this show today!

no, but jokes aside, this is awesome

I really like the new art style and I'm curious how it will look in motion as the more painterly lighting could be redone every frame of animation, and that might look a bit jittery. it would also be a bit jarring to go from a talking scene without much movement (not many frames so the painterly lighting won't be changing) to an action scene where the painterly lighting would be updated 24 FPS. I'll be interested to see how they resolve that issue, because tracking the same painted pattern, warping and stretching it for each frame would also look weird.

this would be the first anime that I know of to have the same art style for the characters and the backgrounds, as usually the backgrounds are more realistic and the characters more cell shaded.

Amazing list of staff! It seems like the director is passionate about One Piece, so that’s an extra plus point. The arts also look great. OMG, I’m so hyped! This reveal has raised my expectations. And if it's received well, then they'll continue on, so that's a great sign. I was kind of worried they might only do East Blue.

@BauaMarega Oda sensei choose the actors. The Netflix adaptation changed a few characters' skin color but that was to be expected it does not matter to me how they look as long they play the character well, Jacob Romero was amazing in Ussop's role.
