One Piece Odyssey – Our First Impressions

One Piece Odyssey is a new JRPG video game from ILCA and Bandai Namco. It's also the latest major game to feature the Straw Hat Pirates from one of the most iconic (and longest-running) anime series of all time. Naturally, we had to talk about it on Rookie Pirate Radio, the official anime and manga podcast of InBetweenDrafts. This isn't a formal video game review (that's coming soon to the site), but more of a first impressions discussion between Jon Negroni (me) and Travis Hymas. We want your feedback! If you have any questions, corrections, or your own theories and speculation about all things One Piece, please leave us a comment below. Or join our Discord and message us in the One Piece Spoilers Chat server. We’ll be back soon to discuss One Piece 1072 after it releases on January 22, 2023. In the meantime, be sure to subscribe to Rookie Pirate Radio on your favorite podcast app, so you can stay up to date on all our releases. One Piece Odyssey is now available to play on Playstation 5, Playstation 4, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. Our intro music is a remix version of “Overtaken” from the One Piece anime, cut together by Jon Negroni. Our podcast artwork was created by Jon Negroni. Travis Hymas is the Anime & Manga editor of InBetweenDrafts, and Jon Negroni is the Film Editor of InBetweenDrafts. Our discussion of One Piece Odyssey is based on only a few hours of gameplay.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
