One Piece: Netflix is now developing a second series that sets everything to zero

You can’t get enough of One Piece? Then we have good news for you: Netflix and Studio Wit are working on a remake of the popular anime

The One Piece instead of One Piece: 25 years after the launch of the legendary anime, Eiichiro Oda’s work is getting a remake. This is being made in collaboration between Netflix and Studio Wit and tells the story of the Straw Hat Pirates all over again.

Netflix sets everything back to square one with The One Piece

This means: The One Piece is described as a modern remake that brings back the East Blue Saga in a nostalgic yet new way to the world. The remake is dedicated to the first 61 episodes of the anime and the first 100 chapters of the manga respectively.

These chapters were also the subject of Netflix’s live-action series, which was surprisingly well received by critics and fans alike. Just a few months ago, One Piece was therefore renewed for a second season, which is now being worked on diligently

The One Piece production companies Toei Animation and Fuji Television are also on board. Anime fans should of course be familiar with Studio Wit by now: The team has already been responsible for projects such as Spy X Family, the first three seasons of Attack on Titan and Season 1 of Vinland Saga. Their latest project is Suicide Squad Isekai

A first teaser trailer for The One Piece is already available, but you shouldn’t expect too much:

Mayumi Tanaka  has already been confirmed as the original Japanese voice actress for Monkey D. Ruffy for The One Piece. This means that it cannot be ruled out that the entire voice cast of the original anime may even return.

However, fans will have to be patient. Because officially, the release date is still a long way off, as The One Piece is a lengthy project that will take even more time – no official release date has been communicated yet.
