The iconic manga by Eiichiro Oda, One Piece, has been going for over a quarter of a century and doesn’t look to be stopping anytime soon. It has spawned movies, video games, merchandise and countless other things on its way to becoming one of the most important stories of the 21st Century. And all that success caught the eye of streaming giant Netflix, which has now brought the series to live-action for the first time.Bringing a story like One Piece to life with real-life actors and sets is a daunting task, but it’s one that the Netflix series doesn’t take lightly. In fact, while many traditionalists will likely scoff at the idea that the live-action version actually captures some of the heart of the series, it goes even further by doing justice to two of its more notable moments — Zoro’s battle with Mihawk and Nami’s plea for help.Roronoa Zoro is not one to back down from a fight, and nowhere is that more evident than during his battle with Dracule Mihawk, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. In both the manga and live-action versions of the story, Zoro crosses paths with Mihawk at Baratie and challenges him to a fight. Zoro’s goal is to become the greatest swordsman in the world, a title that Mihawk holds, so it’s only natural for him to want to attempt to take the crown when the opportunity presents itself. Unfortunately, with Zoro’s journey still in its infancy, he stands no chance, but that’s not what makes the battle so important — and the creative team at Netflix knows that.RELATED: One Piece: How Monkey D.
