One Piece Season 2 has been confirmed by Netflix, as the popular live-action adaptation of the iconic manga and anime series has been renewed for a second season.
Where was One Piece Season 2 announced?
Netflix Geeked posted a video to Twitter of series creator Eiichiro Oda answering a Transponder Snail call and announcing that after working hard with Netflix on Season 1 of the live-action series, he can confirm that One Piece Season 2 is on the way. Oda then thanks both the longtime and new fans of One Piece and states that it will still take time to get the scripts ready before hinting at the forthcoming appearance of the Straw Hat Pirates’ doctor Tony Tony Chopper.
“To the Straw Hat Grand Fleet: What did you think of Season 1 of the live-action One Piece? I spent a long time working on it with Netflix and Tomorrow Studios,” Oda stated. “It seems people around the world have been enjoying the show, which makes the hard work from the production team truly worth it. To everyone who’s been a fan of One Piece for years, and to those who experienced One Piece for the first time, thank you so much.
“Two weeks after the launch, I just received some great news. Netflix has decided to renew the show! The adventures of Iñaki and the live-action Straw Hats will continue onward! It’ll still take a while to get the scripts ready, so please be patient. From here on, it seems to me the Straw Hats will need a great doctor… We will see!”
