Season 1 of Netflix’s One Piece almost adapted the culminating story arc of the manga’s East Blue Saga.Maeda said he fought hard to have many story arcs included in the Netflix series. In an interview with Screen Rant, the One Piece showrunner shared he was unable to explore so many backstories from the manga because these would be very expensive to shoot. He did single out the Loguetown Arc as the one adaptation he really wanted to make, but production constraints forced him to keep that pitch on the back burner for now. He said developing that arc would have also been premature, admitting that he “felt like we were rushing, and was also a very expensive build. And so that’s a regret, for sure.””The biggest one for me that we didn’t get to do, was Logue Town in the present day, and we needed two more episodes to be able to do it and there wasn’t the budget, there wasn’t the screen time,” Maeda explained. “And there wasn’t room in the eight episodes to do it the way that it deserved to be done.” Loguetown was sill briefly explored in the show as the backdrop and influence to Luffy’s early life. “And so we see Logue Town in the very beginning with Rogers’ execution. And then, of course, I wanted to come back to Logue Town and just couldn’t fit it in the eight episodes,” he confessed.RELATED: 10 Moments From The One Piece Anime The Live Action Netflix Series Nailed
