Lego One Piece
What's the Story?
LEGO ONE PIECE begins with live-action Usopp (Jacob Romero) and Tony Tony Chopper (Mikaela Hoover) reminiscing about the adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates. The show transforms into a Lego-ified animated recap of One Piece Seasons 1 and 2, narrated (with dubious accuracy) by Usopp and Tony Tony Chopper. The story begins with Captain Luffy (Inaki Godoy) and his Straw Hat Crew's origin story. Usopp recounts their run-ins with villains like Dracule Mihawk (Steven John Ward) and monsters like the Sea King. Despite the obstacles, Usopp and the crew remain focused on their personal dreams. They end the series excited about the prospect of more adventures and finding the One Piece that will allow Captain Luffy to become King of the Pirates.
Is It Any Good?
This special is fun but frenetic. Lego One Piece basically condenses two seasons of TV into two episodes, obviously leaving a lot of nuance on the cutting room floor in the process. While a great primer for kids new to One Piece, it's much tamer on the violence and language front than the series and may surprise kids inspired to dive into the series. One Piece fans will love seeing their favorite characters and settings made out of Lego, but the surface-level content may not be very satisfying. Grown-up and kid One Piece fans will enjoy watching together, but grown-ups should be forewarned of the likely conclusion: a desire to purchase the corresponding Lego sets.
