The Netflix series returns with the Arabasta saga
Live-action anime has never been exactly popular with fans. After all, in order to adequately adapt an anime or manga to live action, many changes must be made to the source material, and this often leads to a product far from the themes of the original source. Surprisingly, One Piece proved many wrong with its brilliant live-action adaptation from Netflix, becoming one of the first blockbusters ever to air after disasters like Dragon Ball and Death Note Live Action.
One Piece Live Actions Season 1 debuted in 2023 with 8 episodes. Now, the live action series is finally coming back after a long wait. One Piece Live Actions Season 2 will premiere on March 10, 2026, and fans are definitely excited to see what's in store for them this time around. With the release date approaching, Netflix has revealed a new poster featuring the Straw Hat Pirates in their new outfits, as well as a look at the members of Baroque Works. Along with that, Netflix also revealed a new teaser for OPLA Season 2, which you can watch right here:
Eiichiro Oda, creator of the original series, also just revealed some exciting news to fans. Here is what he had to say:
