00:00 I am the God of Stunt!

00:02 One Piece has some really awesome fights.

00:07 We are trying to capture the spirit of the manga

00:11 and give you the same spectacle.

00:13 Our actors really rose to the challenge.

00:16 No one came from a point of, "I think this is too difficult,"

00:19 because they want it to be as authentic as possible to their individual characters.

00:24 These are my friends. You don't get to mess with them.

00:28 Toffee being this happy-go-lucky character,

00:30 using his stretchy ability to protect himself or his friends,

00:33 kind of opens up a world where the whole thing is your playpen.

00:36 So we designed moves so we could put the fun element into it.

00:39 Him moving around a lot and stretching and curving his body.

00:42 Oh my gosh, I had to do a lot of stunt training.

00:45 Being a robber man has a lot of cool things.

00:48 I learned how to use wires.

00:50 He took dirt like a duck to water, and now this kid can fly.

00:55 I'd never experienced anything like that.

00:58 I hope the fans see the great attention to detail.

01:01 Transforming Zero into live action.

01:04 McKenyu is just amazing as a swordsman

01:08 and brought a lot of his own style and his experience to those fights.

01:12 He has the three-sword style.

01:14 Two swords in his hand, one in his mouth.

01:17 Ah, so that's where it goes.

01:19 I want to do my best to show what Zero and I can do.

01:24 Nami is a pro at the bo staff.

01:27 That's something that you see in the manga.

01:30 And we wanted to bring more into the live action series.

01:34 And, God, the fight sequences are so fun to do.

01:37 So I'm kind of like, "Throw them all in. I'll do them all."

01:39 She looks fantastic.

01:42 I mean, the stunt double was very impressed, as was I.

01:44 I actually grew up doing karate.

01:46 So it's a really fun thing to be able to do again.

01:49 For Usopp, we wanted to do a lot of action.

01:53 For Usopp, we had a marksmanship training.

01:56 I had to learn how to use a slingshot.

01:58 But even more so, Usopp spends a lot of the season overcoming his fears.

02:03 Maybe I should head back and make sure that Mary's secure.

02:07 Jacob is very funny. He brings an energy like no one else can.

02:13 He's like a scaredy cat, but he's also not.

02:16 Because when it comes to his friends, he's like, "Okay, I guess I'll fight."

02:22 My only weapon is my feet.

02:25 He doesn't use his hands because he has to use that for cooking.

02:28 So he exclusively uses his feet.

02:30 He definitely has to kick people in the head.

02:32 And so we were training pretty much eight to ten hours a day.

02:35 And now my leg can go fully above my head and axe kick down.

02:39 We did a mixture of kicking styles with Sanji.

02:43 Because, surprisingly enough, fighting with just your feet is a tough one to keep interesting.

02:49 So they wanted capoeira influences, they wanted some breakdancing influences.

02:53 And Tez was really dedicated to this craft and he spent hours and hours and hours practicing.

02:58 Good fighter.

03:00 This group's hard work and talent brought these characters to life in a way that is both familiar and new.

03:08 All of them are phenomenal.

03:10 And seeing them doing their own stunts and fighting, it's one of the most exciting parts of the show.

03:18 I can do more!
