Being a big fan of the series already, even if I don't feel everything in the story have been translated well, it's mostly because I've reread this first saga 2389473 times and think it's already perfect in the manga. And even in disagreeing with these choices, they work well to the type of storytelling they're going for in the live action and it doesn't take away much.
The most important things, which is the characterization of the cast, the story and the messages it brings are still all there and very well made. Very fun and crazy and serious where it needs to be!
I recommend it to everyone, mainly people who haven't given the manga/anime a shot yet because of its length or any other reason!
