I am going to guess that Saturn is also a badass fighter. He has a notable scar so he has probably seen combat before.

if there is one thing Oda loves, it's old men being badass fighters so I'd be more surprised if they werent

Visible veins traveling up the entire 20 foot length of Luffy's grossly extended, realistically skin-textured arm.

Nah we won't get the veins until Gear 2

Or does Gear 2 skin look like high blood pressure, high sodium diet skin?

I think the cast having to act around a netflix-budgetted CG Chopper would be the peak of this adaptation

No way they seem to be into practical effects, I'm sure they can get someone to shake a chopper plushy while the voice comes from off camera Sabrina style.

They'll cancel it once they see how much they would have to spend on Devil Fruit CGI on the Grand Line.

It looks charming enough. It seems like the folks behind it are passionate fans, so I'm treating it as fanart or something like that. Sure it'll be wonky in some ways and cringey in others, but as long as it's got its heart in the right place it'll be fine, and I'll probably enjoy it for what it is. As a piece of absurdly expensive fanart.

As a show judged on its own merits, lol, I've got zero expectations, except certainty that Netflix will cancel it instantly regardless of quality.

Yes, regardless of the quality of the adaptation, Netflix has shown that they will cancel a show if it's not immediately become extremely popular. Like that Sandman show, I heard it's good from the reviewers I trust but there's no confirmation that Netflix is going to continue with that show.

EDIT

Personally for this adaptation, I just hope for the best, but expecting the worst (CGI)

I’ve said it before - bad CGI didn’t ruin Kung Fu Hustle. One Piece would be grotesque if it were too realistic

Best to set expectations low and not get too offended if it's a wholy different thing. Between the Series of Unfortunate Events adaption (great one, very honest to the source) and the Bebop adaption (bad, but watchable) they at least go full throttle on these. For all it's sins, the Bebop show went hard on the visuals in a kind of impressive way.
