Missing the live action Straw Hats already? Well worry not, for Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 is already in the works!
About One Piece
Wealth, fame, power… One Piece follows the dream-centric adventure of the illusive Straw Hat Luffy, as he aims to gather a crew of misfits in search for Gold Roger, the previous king of the pirate’s treasure. Along with his right hand swordsman Zoro, navigator Nami, lying sniper Ussop, and love-stricken cook Sanji, the Straw Hats pirates travel the East Blue, and eventually the Grand Line, in pursuit of their dreams. From being chased by marines, hunting big bad buggy bosses, and crumbling the reputation of pirates above them, the search for the one piece has definitely begun the great pirate era.
The live action adaptation, as many hardcore fans have said, is one of the first adaptations from anime to film to break the curse. The plague of bad live actions made many scared of where their favorite stretchy captain might end up, but as it turns out, One Piece garnered quite high ratings, along with an even larger audience. The more realistic aspects helped this goofy world transition, and instead of being a 1-to-1 reenactment of the anime, became its own independent retelling of Eichiro Oda’s famous story.
