He seems to love playing Crocodile already, going by his Twitter.

forget the accent, what about the costuming
Dammit Joe! That's a huge spoiler for the tourists!
One might call it a hook…
Pretty much, yeah. Honestly, I think Alabasta was the first or second real “major” flashpoint, depending on how you view Arlong Park.
As cool as that would be, I doubt Netflix would touch that guy. If anything, Axel Braun has a talent that’s ready for his parody if he ever does it.
Arlong Park is the first real "feels" of OP. Nami's story is the first time the reader notices that this isn't just "funny ha ha rubber man" story. Luffy did take some pretty mean hits from Arlong, but didn't actually get wrecked though, so I'm giving that award to ol Crocoman.
I'll give it this much, it was the absolute right call to push up to Arlong Park even if you had to speed run through the rest of the stories. Stopping after captain Kuro to give a random example would not really leave people particularly wanting for more.
You know, after Alabasta and Robin joining the crew, I don’t think you can really speedrun or condense things very much until probably once we get to where we get to everyone starting their training for the timeskip. If anything, every arc will be its own season, while Thriller Bark seems contained enough to be its own episode (though I doubt that’s gonna happen).
Yeah, Alabasta is season worthy. After that we got Skypea, which again season worthy, I imagine super serial Netflix skips Foxy outright. Bigger question is how to deal with the smaller moments like with Alabasta there is Little Garden which is stupid important with Dorri and Broggi and Drum, whole with Skipea you have Jaya and all of Noland's backstory with Kalgara (plus introduction of best pirate Teach). Then water 7 plus Eines Lobby, after that Thriller Bark sandwiched with Saboday maybe... you would want to end it with everyone getting yeeted by Kuma for maximum cliffhanger. And next season Impel Down plus marineford war.
It’s 8. It could really do with being 10.
You’d just need to realise Punk Hazard only has enough plot for 2-3 episodes and being Episode 3-4 with them arriving at Dressrosa. 4 hours should be mangable.
There’s a reason I say there is no way they finish the live action. Although maybe once the manga is finished Oda will have more time so production can speed up.
This is kind of Par for the course for Luffy.
Look he just doesn’t think things through ok.
I think in the first episode of the anime, Koby mentions pirates being awful, and Luffy goes “not the ones I know”, and it’s shown Luffy got his notion of pirates from the chill and carefree Shanks.
This can pertain to a lot of people that get roles for stuff like anime, cartoons or animated movies. The ones that think it is some sort of prophecy or think they are gonna change the world with their performance when it is like "You're just the one they agreed on like calm down"
Arlong Park and Enie’s Lobby have the same emotional beats with both Nami and Robin moving forward as characters. It’s an emotional peak even if Luffy doesn’t get his shit kicked in.
It doesn't need to get through his head.
