I know it’s over 1000 chapters/volumes now, of the manga…honestly, I haven’t watched the show, but it’s gotta be doing something rightAren't there like almost 1000 episodes of that show? lol
Also, did the Anime actually get ahead of the Manga and just go on with it's own story writing?
This actually just took over Batman as the most read comic book series of all time. The anime is in the top most watched tv series in the world.Aren't there like almost 1000 episodes of that show? lol

Hollywood have been trying to make anime/manga adaptations a thing for a while now. Some good, some bad, but it rarely is a success in the box office. I hope it works out, maybe an Alita sequel would get greenlight if anime movies started to "become a thing." Personally, I find that anime movies yield better box office results when the actual 2D animated films are released in theatres. They have limited runs, but tend to do well. I'm surprised no Hollywood exec has caught on to the stats and pushed for a 2D animated anime movie with a traditional release, or even a CGI animated version come to think of it. I suppose they did try with Astro Boy.I'm not that familiar with One Piece, but have wondered for a while during the endless Marvel super hero movie machine if Anime / Manga adpations would be a next niche trend. I enjoyed Netflix's take on Cyberpunk and some of their other anime offerings that I really hope get renewed.
Hopefully, this works out better than Cowboy Bebop.

Yeah re live action anime adaptation they usually miss the mark, this looks on point so excited now.It’s getting some love from the fandom
