How did that idea come together and why was Ado the right singing voice for Uta? One Piece Film: Red has lots of traditional One Piece action, but in many ways it almost feels like a concert film. That was one of the challenges that I wanted to take on and use more current gen mindsets with how we approach the production and development of this project. When I joined the technical side, I could definitely see a lot of old systems that were in place for the production pipeline. What that means is that there are certain rules of specific productions, business models, and even the technical aspects in the pipeline that were set in motion 23 years ago, but may not apply anymore or are now obsolete in our current day.

GT: Well, One Piece in its current state-the TV series and franchise-has been ongoing for 23 years. Can you elaborate on that mission statement?

Taniguchi-san, I’ve read that your goal with this movie was to “destroy” the conventions of One Piece and create something new and special. Evidently, they got an immediate “yes” from Oda sensei, so that’s when I started to feel good about taking on this role and directing this film. I asked producers if they could ask Oda sensei if that’s really what he wants and if I was truly the right fit. And there are only so many times that you can turn someone down! But really, for myself, I was really questioning whether I was the right choice to direct this. GORŌ TANIGUCHI: Well, I’ve actually been offered the role of director three times in the past, which is very humbling and flattering-it’s kind of a big deal. What was it about One Piece Film: Red that changed your mind? The film’s director, Gorō Taniguchi, executive producer Shinji Shimizu, and producer for the anime series Hiroaki Shibata spoke with Den of Geek via translator about this unusual addition to the One Piece canon, how it became a “concert film,” Eiichiro Oda’s involvement in the movie, and what they think of Netflix’s upcoming live-action One Piece series.ĭEN OF GEEK: Taniguchi-san, you were previously asked several times to direct a One Piece movie, but always turned down the opportunities. One Piece Film: Red has broken box office records as the most successful One Piece film to date and the celebrated movie’s English dub is set to hit theaters on Nov.
