Found this live action adaptation of what is evidently a beloved anime show with [U]over 1100 episodes[/U]. The show was based on a Japanese manga (graphic novel) series. It looked interesting, not entirely for kids, but fun with a bit of a fantasy element mixed with pirates. I was reminded of my first law school roommate, from China (engineering masters) who told me the Mandarin name for people from Japan means "short pirates". I'm three episodes in and it's good. Just what I was looking for really. Fun characters, led by Monkey D Luffy, a wannabe pirate and the rag tag crew he assembles. It's a clever storyline, colorful and enjoyable TV. It has very high reviews and a second season is coming. [/QUOTE]
