ONE PIECE | Eiichiro Oda Meets Iñaki Godoy | Netflix

With his straw hat and ragtag crew, young pirate Monkey D. Luffy goes on an epic voyage for treasure in this live-action adaptation of the popular manga.

Imagine being told by the man Oda himself that you are just like the main character he wrote. Must be a massive honor.

[PedroAng]

The kid almost broke into tears when Oda said "I can't imagine anyone else playing this role". Touchy moment.

[tiffanygamez]

Imagine how Oda feels, being able to hug the living embodiment of his beloved character Luffy 🥺

[VoidBass]

"im so grateful that you were born, to be just like luffy" greatest achievement in anime history.

[xxminixkittyxx]

It's almost as if the real Luffy was meeting his creator... and the creator finally got to meet his creation; I wasn't expecting to get this emotional.

[videochu]

The fact that not only Iñaki looks , acts and has the spirit of Lufy, he also loves the character as it was his own. Perfect casting.

Oda is a hugger. You can tell when they go in for a hug both times Oda doesn't half heartedly go for it, he goes all into the hug and does some big back pats.

The way Iñaki is looking at Oda, when he does not understand any Japanese, and he gets emotional shows the great human being this kid is

[Jestloo]

This is what is missing in Hollywood; actors and creators LOVING and RESPECTING the source material they are adapting. The overwhelming appreciation from this video was wholesome and contagious.

[kingperalta]

"I think your energy as Luffy is going to be contagious." — That's EXACTLY how I feel watching Iñaki in this role. The casting was on point, he's the definition of adorable!

[yuuchan]

Oda-sensei meeting an embodiment of his "child" - Luffy, after years of just writing and drawing stories of him must be so awesome, and emotional for him as a mangaka and as Luffy's father.

"I can't imagine anyone else playing this role" is the biggest compliment you'll ever hear from a mangaka if you were playing a role that they created, most specially coming from a legend like Oda-sensei himself. No wonder Iñaki felt so happy, and emotional. I'm so looking forward for the next seasons to come no matter how long as long as the quality of the production won't get compromise.

[disdanny]

Not a lot of people can say that they have met one of the greatest story tellers and I am glad his own main character got the chance to.

[Nightscream]

You could see him tearing up when Oda complimented him & said he couldn't imagine anyone else playing the role. What an honor to be told that by the creator of the series that you love.

[smittyjjensin]

It must have been a true honor to meet one of the most legendary writers in history.

[gothik]

I can understand why Oda sees Luffy through Iñaki the same way the manga fans do, he has that big smile that radiates a natural positive energy. I'd argue that Iñaki was Joy Boy before Joy Boy was even a thing.

If Iñaki was a Tarot card, he'd be *The Fool* unarguably and so would be Luffy.

[Mekose]

My face hurts from smiling so much. I almost cringed from how Inaki is pushing into Oda's personal space excitedly; but when I think about it, this is exactly how Luffy would be. I can't believe they actually found Luffy. HE EVEN DREW HIM A PICTURE CARD. This kid is a treasure.

[DreaLeFay]

I am so impressed by how well casted they are 😭 live actions can be so bad, but the producers did a lot of effort to capture the spirit of the show instead of just trying to copy it. The actors are so talented as well!

[yunggrooki]

You don’t even have to be a One Piece fan to feel Inaki’s joy. He’s too precious 🥺💖

[groovercrusader]

Inaki is so infectiously charming that when you seem him in person you might either:

A. Shed tears of joy
B. Hug him
C. Kiss him on the head
D. All of the above

[takeuchi]

I DID NOT expect to get emotional. To be told "You're just like Luffy" by Oda himself, I can't even imagine what that feels like. Great casting. I hope the live action gets tons of seasons.
