One Piece VFX Supervisors Break Down Episode 1’s Gum Gum Pistol Scene

One Piece VFX supervisors Scott Ramsey and Victor Scalise recently unpacked the Gum Gum Pistol scene in the live-action manga adaptation’s first episode.Ramsey and Scalise discussed the scene, in which protagonist Monkey D. Luffy (Iñaki Godoy) unleashes his signature stretchy punch on Alvida (Ilia Isorelýs Paulino), during an interview with Polygon. “It went through [showrunners] Steven Maeda and Matt Owens, all the way up to Netflix and [One Piece manga creator Eiichiro] Oda himself,” Ramsey said. “It just took a long time to get that development look right.””We looked at a lot of different things,” Scalise added. “Like: What’s the surface tension on his skin? Do we want to see muscles or, for example, his belly button while his body morphs? At what point do you keep it anatomically correct? Or do you just go full cartoon with it? I feel like all the Luffy stuff is grounded in a way that, if these physics could exist, this is what [Gum Gum powers] would really do.” Ramsay also made a point of crediting Iñaki Godoy with helping to sell the Gum Gum Pistol scene, echoing recent remarks by executive producer Marc Jobst highlighting the star’s intense preparation for One Piece’s fight scenes.Related: One Piece Showrunner Addresses the Season 1 Finale’s Mid-Credits Scene: ‘It’s a Good Mystery’
