An explosive trailer reveals the new faces of Season 2
The first big surprise of this year’s event was the release of an exclusive trailer for the second season of the Netflix series. This highly anticipated preview instantly won over viewers by revealing several iconic characters who had yet to appear in the first season. For the first time, we got a glimpse of:
- Miss All Sunday, the enigmatic first appearance of Nico Robin
- Miss Wednesday, also known as Princess Vivi of Alabasta
- Brogy, one of the legendary giants from Little Garden
This trailer confirms that Season 2 will venture into unexplored corners of Oda’s universe, particularly the Alabasta arc — one of the most beloved storylines in the original manga. However, no exact release date has been announced, with Netflix only confirming a 2026 premiere.
Season 3 officially confirmed by Netflix
The second reveal at this year’s One Piece Day was even more earth-shattering. At the end of the Season 2 trailer, Netflix dropped a bombshell by officially confirming that production on Season 3 of One Piece Live Action will begin very soon.
This news doesn’t come out of nowhere — the writers have already been working on this next chapter for several months. Still, receiving an official green light from the streaming platform is a huge vote of confidence for the future of this ambitious adaptation.
Season 3 is already shaping up to be the most spectacular yet, as it is expected to cover the conclusion of the Alabasta arc. This fan-favorite storyline promises epic battles and major revelations that will mark a turning point in the Straw Hat Pirates’ adventure.
Where to watch One Piece Live Action?
For newcomers or anyone wanting to revisit this live-action adaptation, the entire first season is available on Netflix. Launched in 2023 with the blessing and direct involvement of Eiichiro Oda, the series has won over audiences well beyond the usual manga fanbase.
Season 2, expected in 2026, will also be available on the same platform, allowing subscribers to follow the evolution of this adaptation that’s redefining the rules for manga-based live-action. With these two major announcements, the future of One Piece on Netflix has never looked brighter.
