Popcorn Culture - Stuff We Missed: One Piece

Adapted from the wildly popular Japanese anime, this live action series managed to achieve that rare feat: the approval of the original's fans. Set in a fantastical world of oceans, islands, and pirates, the series tells the story of Monkey D. Luffy, who dreams of finding the ultimate treasure and becoming a Pirate King - and along the way, amasses an unlikely crew of friends, each with their own dream to fulfill. We review the show, and talk about how it manages to channel the anime's energy, adventure and aesthetic, while also being accessible to newbies.
