Original creator Oda, who also served as an executive producer, stated in May that the series would not launch until he was "satisfied." He added that "each and every entity involved is working in sync."
Adelstein stated in a video message shown at Jump Festa in 2017 that the live-action Hollywood television series adaptation of the manga would start with the East Blue arc and "broaden from there." Adelstein also stated that the series promised to create "a true One Piece" after he discussed the project with Oda personally.
