While the live action adaptation of One Piece does not shy away from taking creative liberties, by removing or changing plot points, it still perfectly captures the essence and tone of the original story. The world is sufficiently strange and intriguing, and the special effects, mostly, do not feel out of place or distracting. A 90% score might seem a bit too high when compared to other well received shows, like Breaking Bad or the first few seasons of Game of Thrones, but rating OPLA for what it is: an adaptation of the One Piece manga, I can think of very few concrete changes to improve it, so by that metric it is indeed almost perfect.
