Oda reveals his true feelings about the Netflix adaptation in a cute note signed by himself. The anime community is often skeptical about live-action adaptations, and the series’ creator is no different. Judging by the previous adaptations of all the other series, Oda ensured that the quality of Netflix’s adaptation is uncompromised in every aspect.

The production took seven years to complete, and Oda has been a part of it since the very beginning. He also understands that a lot of fans will not be satisfied with the changes the live-action has made. Therefore, the mangaka emphasized that the producers and crew are fans of the series, again assuring the public that the series will live up to their expectations.
