One Piece followers terrified Netflix live-action present censors Sanji’s chain-smoking

Among the principle Straw Hat Pirates crew in One Piece is the ship’s cook dinner Vinsmoke Sanji. 

In Eiichiro Oda’s manga, the character is known for his kicks, sporting a jacket and tie and chain-smoking.

Infamously, his cigarettes have been censored within the 4Kids model of the anime, being transformed right into a lollipop.

With the discharge of Netflix’s live-action adaptation of the sequence, followers have been worrying that Sanji’s tobacco puffing has been censored for in the present day’s audiences.

So far the trailers, together with the ultimate one launched in the present day, don’t function the pirate – who isn’t seen with out a fag in his mouth within the manga and anime – smoking in any respect.

On prime of this, Netflix posted some footage of the forged and on the entrance is Sanji live-action star Taz Skylar, who’s sucking on a pink lollipop.

Distraught followers commented on the image, “NOT THE 4KIDS REFERENCE” and “Wait Sanji isn’t smoking ????”

It’s true he’s not but been seen puffing away on a cigarette in any of the One Piece promotional materials, however hearsay has it, he’ll a number of the time.

One fan identified how the US age score for One Piece has been modified from TV-14 to TV-Mature (over 17 solely).

Included within the classification have been the next: language, nudity, self-harm, violence and sure, you guessed it, smoking.

Other followers have claimed an early reviewer confirmed that Sanji does smoke within the live-action sequence. Now simply wait till season 2 with Naval officer Smoker who all the time has two cigars in his mouth within the manga and anime.

One Piece is streaming on Netflix from 8am BST tomorrow.
