One Piece Season 2 plot, release timeline, cast and other details we know

When Netflix released the live-action adaptation of One Piece in 2023, many fans were sceptical. After all, this was a beloved anime and manga with a massive global following. Any misstep could’ve caused a major backlash. But instead, the show turned out to be a huge success.

In just under two weeks, One Piece received over 37.8 million views. The series impressed longtime fans with its faithful recreation of the world Eiichiro Oda created, while also pulling in a whole new audience that had never watched the anime or read the manga.

With its mix of humour, emotion and action, Season 1 proved that a live-action One Piece could actually work and now fans can’t wait to see what happens next. From the expected release timeline to the new characters, here’s everything we know so far about One Piece Season 2.
