Quote from IGN
Netflix has officially announced a ten-episode order for a One Piece live-action series.
This live-action adaptation of the best selling manga series has reportedly been in development for some time, but this is the first official announcement from the streaming giant.
According to a press release from Netflix, the streamer "has partnered with Tomorrow Studios and Shueisha to bring this pirate adventure story from Japan to audiences around the world. The original manga, written by Eiichiro Oda, has captivated fans for many years and sold over 460 million copies."
Expect a repeat of Death Note, or worse.
