I never played the game so I have no reference.
But watching this show only makes me angry at the poor choices of all the characters. The ones that are in the lead focus right now are completely uninteresting and their choices keep contradicting their words like a big bunch of hypocrites. They act like they are 12 years old on a cocktail of emotions.
What was even the point of the 3 minute scene in the forest, she just went back out in to the ocean anyway with nothing changed?
This show have gone the same route and failure as the walking dead. A show that used to be about humans surviving zombies but then became a show about humans vs humans. That is not why I started watching this show. I will not continue on with S3.

So like the title says,
and as someone who have read the manga and watched more than 500 hours of OnePiece anime, I would claim that I know the characters, story and overall world pretty well.
What I like about this show is that it seems faithful to the original story, has a decent budget and not overusing CGI. Overall the show should have a bit more of a happy/goofy tone in between big fights to ease up the tension, the show feels a bit too serious at times when it doesnt have to be. But I like that they are not afraid to show some blood.
The score is a bit meh, I noticed in one episode that they actually used a few seconds of the anime soundtrack so I was surprised that it was fine with all the copywrite stuff, would have been nice though if they could have used all the original score.
What bothers me the most are the camera angles, I swear 50% of the show are filmed in a closeup of the face from a slight upward facing angle, its so obvious it gets annoying, please change it for season 2.
Many anime adaptations have been done and they often do not deliver to expectations. A big reason for this is that emotions and abilities often are extremely over the top in anime compared to reality. But for OnePiece these are also a very important aspects to approach to its success.
Luffy feels way too weak and not goofy enough, he can be serious at times but not as much as in this show. Did not like child luffy actor, He should have been more of an insufferable idiot.
Shanks, looks cool but did not carry the same authority and power as original.
Nami should have a bit more temper tantrums on the boys.
Zoro is actually the most close to original version with badass swordskills but could raise his voice a bit more at times, Kid Zoro was great!, as well as Kuina.
Usopp should be more anxious and screamy
Sanji should be switching a bit more between cool and hopeless romantic. And WHY oh WHY did they not include the reason why Sanji only fights with his feet and legs? Its quite a big deal for his character. The episodes with Baratie was a bit disappointing actually since they did not show some important character building elements.
Koby.... WHY do he get sooo much screentime?? He is such a minor character seriously.
Buggy was alright, but its near impossible to recreate the madness that is Buggy in the manga/anime Kuro, Arlong, Mihawk, Garp were brilliant
Despite this so far its an enjoyable show, but definately not a masterpiece.

There is almost no way to not compare this from the movie with the same title from 2003, but since I do not remember most of the movie I think my views are somewhat non-biased.
The acting was really good for most parts, and I love that Gustaf Skarsgård got a role in this one since he also played in the movie. A few minor supporting actors were so-so. The first 2 episodes were really good on all fronts and exciting, after that it got quite boring actually since there was alot of dialouge with the girl that felt like nonsense since she was acting very dramatic and a bit hypocritical for me.
The show took a better turn towards the last episode by making the viewer feel closure and some kind of justice. If it was the justice I expected or prefered I will leave unsaid. Overall this would have been done better as a 2h movie in my opinion, but it still holds up on the positive side of the review scale.
