One Piece: Netflix reveals first look at live-action Chopper
Published June 1st, 2025 - 06:56 GMT ALBAWABA - Netflix is the talk of social media after publishing a new trailer that revealed the live-action version of One Piece's Tony Tony Chopper alongside the actress who will voice him, sparking mixed reactions among anime and manga fans. While many praised Netflix for doing Chopper justice, several others weren't so keen about the CGI, describing it as "uncanny" and likening it to Sonic's debut into the live-action universe. A social media user on X (formerly known as Twitter) wrote, "I'm gonna be honest.. that's a great live action version!" Another added, "He looks fine... I don't know why people are hating." Several others raised the long-running debate about whether animated shows should receive live-action adaptations, claiming that it's a quick and easy cash grab for big corporations like Netflix. However, the first season of live-action One Piece received high praise among fans for its excellent casting choices, promising visuals (except Arlong), and compelling pacing.

It's worth noting that Netflix is also working alongside Japanese animation studio "WiT Studio" to bring fans a remake of the One Piece anime, although Toei's adaptation is still ongoing. © 2000 - 2025 Al Bawaba (
