Netflix’s One Piece is returning for a second season, ending the anime adaptation curse

Finally, we have a decent anime adaptation from Netlfix and the company hasn’t let that success go unnoticed. The news is that theNetflix adaptation ofOne Piecehas been renewed for a second season.

The announcement came with a cute video of Eiichiro Oda speaking via a transponder snail, thanking fans new and old for their support of the show. Oda goes on to announce the renewal of the show before moving back to his desk where we see a sketch of fan favourite, Chopper, hopefully hinting that the reindeer will grace our screens soon.

Executive producer Marty Adelstein recentlytoldVariety that “scripts were already finished for a second season” and fellow executive producer, Becky Clements, stated that the second season could be ready “somewhere between a year and 18 months” from today.

Let’s not forget aboutOne Piece Odyssey, an RPG that came out earlier in the year, which also did a great job of telling this long-running story.

As a hugeOne Piecefan, I’m thrilled the show will continue as it has brought so many people to the Grand Line, the show’s oceanic setting. In a world full of wacky abilities, the show could have easily missed the mark with bad CGI and awkward characters, but Netlfix has landed a crew who seem to care and are attempting to capture the show’s wackiness as authentically as possible.

I hope that continues with the introduction of Chopper who, as an anthropomorphic reindeer who changes size with his strength, could push that CGI quite far.
