And? We are talking about test audience reactions to adaptations of big IPs. In this context it doesn't matter if it is animation or series. The point is rumors are rumors, and bad test reaction doesn't necessarily mean a flop (if it's true even).

I love how Oda seems very honest, to the point of saying he almost gave up and it was very infuriating. (TV production always is). Gives a lot more credit to it going great now. It seems that he indeed is also very active in the process (which is what the negative nancys keep denying and comparing it to Watanabe, while everything points otherwise).
If you want to believe this
He literally just wrote so. So you are saying Oda is lying?
We do not know how log the episodes are yet though. With Netflix, it could be anything from 45 minutes to 120 mins. If the episodes are closer to one hour mark, I don't think its out of question they could reasonably adapt East Blue. Especially if they end it at Arlong Park.
I thought it was an hour long, it was stated someone earlier... They will have to cut-down on some aspects.. for instance, Gaimon will not be featured, which is OK. But cutting down on flashbacks for instance may not work.
Nah, that not has been confirmed anywhere. There was some crewmember CVs that indicated that the episodes would be around 1 hour running length, but it's not facts yet.
It would not be the first time

Lol XD
I don't remember him ever lying. But maybe you should stop following him and his work if you are so disappointed in him?
I literally can't understand this sentence. But internet exists, distance is not a problem these days. And I'm not saying Oda has become a fulltime director or anything, but lots of consulting and discussion and suggestion has definitely been made.
Such respectful discusser you are. But yes, the deal with Netflix was done in 2016. It's not like he has done full-time work on this ever since, but all sorts of back and worth definitely has been going on.
Oh no?
What ?
I repeat, if you want to believe it, you are free to do so.
Hopefully ?
Not really a lie. Poor estimation and/or change of plans. Also very subjective.
You are so negative and confident he is lying, so it really doesn't seems like you care about his word and work at all.
About 12-14 hours work days, like most weekly mangaka. This working time most likely includes meeting with managers and discussing the show every now and then.
If I'm allowed to look forward to this show as I want, why do you keep replying me with super negative stuff, even when I'm not talking or replying directly to you? You are the one who is negatively attacking everything I have to say.
See? You've already decided it sucks without seeing. You are also hoping people will stop talking about it. Completely contradicting your previous "You are free to belief so and I will watch it first".
If he doesn't tell the truth, it's a lie.
I mean, so just because I say Oda lies, does that mean I don't appreciate his work?
So in your opinion, with all the time he dedicates to the manga, does he also have time to devote himself to a show produced on the other side of the world?
I'm just saying that I find it quite tricky to trust Oda's words, because some authors are ready to take it all back in the event of a flop...
In fact, I'm also waiting for the show
It would be contradictory why?
Again, look at the background
Never said he lies for sure.
See above
See above
False. Lie needs intention to tell false information on purpose. Oda did believe what he said at the moment he said. You really don't seem to follow many artists that deal in creating big sprawling epics. It's quite common for them to totally misjudge how much time reaching something takes.
Yes. He went his way to do a statement on the work he did fo the live-action. And you say it's a lie.
Yes. Meetings, briefs, emails, chats are all part of a creatives job and included in the work time. Thanks to internet anyone can work with anyone in the world. So no, taking some hours weekly to check scripts, answer emails and attend zoom chats isn't out of the question. Sure, it's a lot of work. But Oda does extra projects all the time. He has had time to write/consult/co-produce several animated OP films while doing the manga - how come he wouldn't be able to do so in a live-action series too? They don't have to be physically be in the same space to do the work with Oda.
So you are future sighting Oda to take it back and dismissing the project? Wow. And then you still claim you appreciate his work.
So you've decided it flops.
Read above.
Sure, live-actions adaptations don't have a good track record. Still you can't judge it before seeing it. Some live-actions have been pretty good too.
Read few quotes above. You sound very sure. Nice back pedaling.
So now you believe what he is saying in the statement? Some consistency please. Netflix won't bankrupt for delaying it some time, it's already mostly paid for. Is not like they are
And when was I going to say I believed it?
You may not mean it, but if you don't tell the truth, you're lying.
So how much that makes me a hater of Oda and all of One Piece in general.
But not with what Oda has to do every week.
Oda of extra manga to the fullest makes some cover or drawing.
I haven't decided.
But I have never given certainties, only purely personal opinions.
With this logic, if OPLA doesn't flop, it means you are now lying. But if it does flop, you are now talking the truth. That's not how it works.
I didn't quite understand. what would be the truth?
