Fortunately , One Pieceseason 1checked all the boxes for what a springy - action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda ’s iconic fiber needed . Godoy proved to be the utter pick to play Luffyand entrance all the vim the character demanded . In addition to theOne Piececast ’s great performances , the show itself had many quotes that could have well been said by the characters ' gum anime opposite number .

10“I’m setting out to follow my dream, to find the One Piece.”
Luffy’s motives are very clear from the start
Luffy is not a very complex main character , which does not stand for he is not a fascinating one . Whereas some champion have elaborated goal and complicated backstories , Luffy ’s journey is very straightforward – he wants to notice the One Pieceand become King of the Pirates . thing get complicated as the history build , and Luffy ’s yesteryear finally catches up with him , but he never give up on his aspiration . Every determination Luffy makes is either to protect his booster or to advance his journey , which is something the Netflix show captures very well .
One Pieceseason 2 ’s release date has yet to be foretell .
9“If the path to what you want seems too easy, then you’re on the wrong path.”

While this quote technically comes from cannon , it was said by Luffy at the end ofOne Pieceepisode 2 . When questioned by Zoro if every Clarence Day with him would be that chaotic , Luffy steer out that the good path is never the easy one . Zoro agreed , say that“this Shanks guy”sounds really smart .

Still , Luffy knows that things will not be well-fixed thanks to Shanks ’ lesson .
8“You gave up on your dream. No one who does that can ever call themselves a pirate.”

Kuro , for model , have up on his sea robber journey as before long as he found the opportunity to become fat by steal Kaya ’s hereditary pattern . consort to Luffy , those who give up on their dreams are not worthy of call themselves literary pirate .

7“Being a pirate is not about raiding villages or perfect plans. It’s about adventure and freedom.”
Luffy is his own type of pirate in One Piece
Koby and mostOne Piececharactersperceive pirates as something negative – villainous mass who will foray into settlement and slip from others . Luffy , however , is his own type of pirate . For Luffy , being a pirate is not about vehemence or deceiving people with genius plans – it is about the adventure and freedom that comes with it . This is a core look of Luffy ’s graphic symbol that should be present in every loop of the character . Fortunately , Netflix ’s alive - action version of Luffy nailed it , both through how the part was pen and Godoy ’s operation .
6“You should never let anyone tell you what you can’t do.”
Luffy changed Koby’s life with one line.
Luffy is all about exemption , which is why he is personally offended by hoi polloi who give up their dreams because they do n’t call back they can accomplish them . Luffy slapped Koby in the face after the latter said his ambition of being a marine was stupefied . According to Luffy , there are no unintelligent dreaming , and no one can tell a person what they can or can not achieve . This simple line would change Koby ’s liveliness forever and a day , open him the courage and the strength to get together the Marinesand finally become one of Garp ’s sound recruits .
Luffy believe everyone should be free to live life as they prefer , which is also one ofOne Piece ’s primal melodic theme .
5“I don’t really do regretting.”
Luffy is always looking forward
When meeting Sanji for the first time at the Baratie , Luffy was demand about sorrow . However , the Straw Hat pirate noted that he doesn’t“do regretting,”meaning he never looks behind . Luffy does not always make the correct choice , yet he never second - guesses . It can be difficult for the rest of the Straw Hats to keep up with him because of it , yet this is also one of Luffy ’s swelled advantages . Interestingly , Sanji is very much defined by his past , which bring in this interaction between him and Luffy even well .
4“No one should be forced into anything. Everyone should be free to live as they choose.”
Luffy helped free Nami from Arlong
Luffy believes everyone should be free to live life as they pick out , which is also one ofOne Piece ’s central idea . This is why he becomes absurdly angry after study that Nami has been storm to work for Arlong for the past 10 year . Nami had an unbelievable talent for navigation and cartography , yet she had to apply it for the benefit of Arlong and his plagiarizer gang . By kill Arlong , Luffy gave Nami her freedom backand forge a bond that would never be broken . Curiously , Nami wo n’t be the last fiber Luffy help oneself loose inOne Piece .
A central element to One Piece success is its great casting of major and nonaged cast . Nico Robin ’s accurate casting can stay the trend in time of year 2 .
3“… No one messes with my friends.”
One Piece’s villains’ biggest mistake is to mess with Luffy’s friends
A simple yet hefty descent from Luffy is that no one messes with his friends , which he aver to Arlong toward the final stage of the show . Monkey D. Luffy will stand up against thousands of Marines or the intact World Government to help a friend in indigence , and there is nothing he would not do to protect someone he cares about . The big mistake aOne Piecevillain can make is to mess with Luffy ’s crew , which reference like Kuro and Arlong cursorily realized in season 1 .
2“You can hit me all day long, but I’m never giving up on my dream.”
Garp can’t stand between Luffy and his dream
Netflix’sOne Piecechanged Garp ’s role in the level , at least in terms of the timeline . Garp was not supposed to be part of the East Blue saga , although his role in season 1 head to some interesting second . Garp and Luffy ’s confrontation at the end ofOne Pieceepisode 8 makes it clear that nothing can bear between Luffy and his dreaming , not even his ridiculously powerful grandfather . If not even Monkey D. Garp ’s lick can stop Luffy from chasing the One Piece , nothing in the universe can .
1“You never know what’s on the horizon. It’s all about being free.”
Freedom is one of One Piece’s biggest themes
Koby wish to realize why Luffy want to become a pirate , to which Luffy responded“Why would n’t someone need to be a pirate?”From Luffy ’s perspective , sailing as a pirate is about finding adventures , make a crew at your side , and feel to wing . In other words , it is about not knowing what is on the skyline and being free . Luffy ’s lookup for freedom becomes even more interesting when more about his past tense is revealed , but the Netflix adaptation ofOne Piecealready captured this defining trait of the character .
