Wasn't the live action One piece pretty good though?
I watched it and the lack of budget really shows. Stuff like adult Luffy having a slight accent (putting the emphasis on the wrong syllables or words in a sentence) while child actor Luffy doesn't. The hair dye looks pretty bad. Instead of fighting Buggy and his whole crew in Orange Town, the straw hats beat the crew off-screen and fight Buggy solo, with the only locations used being a small circus tent or the backroom of said small circus tent. Instead of fighting Kuro and the Black Cat Pirates on the beach to keep them from getting to Syrup Town, they fight Kuro and two other servants (who were apparently also undercover and working with him the whole time though this is never mentioned) in Kaya's mansion. Instead of fighting Don Krieg, because that would involve a large group and Baratie being damaged, Mihawk kills them all in the Grand Line so there's a small scuffle between Arlong's crew and the straw hats instead. Instead of fighting Hachi or the seacow, because those would have to be full CG, they have Sanji and Zolo just fight some random fishmen mooks, one of whom knows fishman karate. In order to re-use the sets they have (which are, in fairness, mostly very nice), they have Garp follow behind Luffy and talk to people in the same places.
Wait, what were we talking about?
Also the Charlie Sheen bit is from Hot Shots Part Deux.
