One Piece Remake’s Goal Revealed By Series Director
Masashi Koizuka was recently revealed to be the series director ofThe One Piece anime remake. At Wit Studio, he has amassed a very exciting staff under him, and while his position as the leader of this new One Piece anime project might be surprising to the fans, for him, it was an incredibly easy thing to say yes to. When Koizuka heard about the studio being approached for a One Piece remake many years ago, he decided that he wouldn’t let anyone else take charge of this project, simply because he’s such a huge fan of the franchise itself. Since then, he has contacted all the people that he trusts and knows will work faithfully on the project, and, together, they are going to recreate a fascinating piece of story soon enough.
Of course, many fans were wondering as to how long theOne Pieceanime remake will go on for, and where the story will begin from. The answer to that question was always simple, but those who needed explicit confirmation from those working on it can rejoice as it has now been confirmed that The One Piece anime remake is going to start from the East Blue Saga, which means the very beginning of the story.Masashi Koizuka, the series director, recently revealed that the idea is for the series to go on for a very long time. They are looking at it as a long-term project, which means that the anime is going to continue for many years to come. This means the plan is to cover the entire series, right from the beginning to the end. However, the series director also confirmed that much of that depends upon the reception that the series gets. If it is a successful project and is loved by people all over the world, then it is going to continue, but, if the product isn’t as good as what fans expected and is largely underwhelming, then, the future of the Anime project is going to be called into question.
Given the amount of production time that has been provided to this project and, at the same time, the amount of love and effort that seems to be put into it, it is highly unlikely that this project is going to fail. Fans can rest assured that this is going to be a massive success, which essentially means that they have a new One Piece anime at hand that is going to continue for at least 7 to 10 years or so, if not more.
Oda’s Message For The One Piece Remake Team
Oda Has Strong Advice For The Staff Working On The New One Piece Anime
Naturally, fans might wonder as to what Oda’s involvementin The One Piece anime remakeis. There’s absolutely no reason to think that Oda is not involved in this project. However, his exact involvement here is going to be very limited, just as it is in the Toei version of the anime. Oda believes that the anime is a different product from the manga, and that fans should watch it with that in mind.
Those working on the anime should take their liberties and adapt it however they see fit, because at the end of the day, it is not his work.Oda is the author of the manga, and to him, the manga matters the most. The anime staff can make it as fun as they want to, and while it is important to do justice to the source material, Oda is more concerned with those working on it to express themselves fully. Here is what Oda has to say about the anime remake in the words of the staff:
Rather than reproducing the manga of One Piece, the anime staff should digest it and remake it in their own style. I want you all to express rather than copy and paste the work. – Eiichiro Oda
The series director of the upcomingOne Pieceanime also said that the staff working on TheOne Pieceproject are fans of the series and have been for many years.
Now, they have a unique opportunity to bring their vision to life, and, in doing so, pay homage to Oda’s work that has brought countless moments of joy and happiness to them.
They grew up watching One Piece at a young age and now working on this project, still have the joy and excitement as a reader. They have a strong sense of what they felt when they were young because they were the target audience back then.
How Will The One Piece Remake Differ From The Original Anime?
The One Piece Remake Will Be A Modern Anime With Better Animation And Pacing
Of course, fans might be wondering as to what the difference is going to be betweenthe upcoming Wit Studio anime, and the one produced by Toei. The difference is simple. The anime produced by Toei Animation is quite old, and it is not fair to expect new fans to go back to it and enjoy it. While there is no denying the fact that the anime produced by Toei, especially in the very early parts, is very strong and certainly one of the very best of its era, it is still old and would not appeal to newer fans.
To modernize One Piece and, at the same time, fix the many issues that it suffers from, such as pacing, a tremendous amount of episode count, and on top of that, the formatting of the episodes itself, a recreation ofOne Piecewas absolutely needed.
These are going to be the main differences between the two anime, and, if everything goes to plan, then, the upcoming One Piece anime remake is going to be the better product of the two. Still, at the end of the day, this is something subjective. Fans may prefer one or the other, or simply enjoy both, which is a win-win situation for everyone.
The One Piece will be streamable onNetflixwhen it drops next year.
