Welcome to c/writing!

This is a space for all kinds of discussion referring to writing. This could include the structure and style found in different types of writing, authors worth talking about, different genres, trends, etc.

This is also a space for users who wish to share their own writing for feedback. This could look like independently posting excerpts of poems/prose/plays or it could be replying to one of the writing prompt threads. Brainstorming and worldbuilding ideas are welcome too!

Ideally, this will be a community where we work together to become better writers and appreciators of writing in all its forms.

All that said, please note that Code of Conduct still applies here. Please apply content warnings where applicable and spoiler material that might be inappropriate.

Everything I see about the writing sounds bad and the outfits also look like shit. Every character looks like they're a high end cosplayers, not someone who lives through a war. Why is everyone's clothes perfectly ironed and clean

2D and 3D have such different aesthetics, the only good way to costume an adaptation like this is to find a costume director who has never seen the original and get fresh ideas on set. But doing that would entail taking on the risk that the new ideas might suck, so Netflix would rather make something that will definitely suck but won't generate a ton of online complaints.

One piece live action has managed to pull it off the best so far, and it still looks bad.

So was the original and that's one of the best TV shows ever

Okay? I'm talking about the costumes, comrade. Its a netflix show adaptation of a child's cartoon. High end cosplay is the only thing you were ever gonna get. Why would you expect the costumes to look as though they're realistic characters living through a war
