The Straw Hats are back, and they’re about to become a bigger swashbuckling crew as they sail into the Grand Line. Monkey D. Luffy’s (Iñaki Godoy) quest to become the King of the Pirates continues in Netflix’s live-action adaptation of One Piece. Season 2 is aptly titled One Piece: Into the Grand Line.
Filming for the second season began in 2024. The first installment based on Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga featured Godoy as Monkey D. Luffy, Mackenyu as Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji. Season 1 adapted most of the manga’s East Blue Saga up to the Arlong Park arc, which can only mean one thing: Loguetown is next!
On Feb. 10, Netflix shared a letter from One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda teasing what to expect in Season 2. “All the conventions that were established in Season 1 will be shattered,” Oda writes. “A parade of Devil Fruit users, a race of giants never before seen, adorable creatures, hard-hitting action, and stunning VFX — this season is packed with even more highlights!”

NetflixHere’s everything we know so far about Netflix’s One Piece Season 2.
Netflix’s One Piece latest news
On March 2, Netflix unveiled the final trailer for One Piece Season 2. It’s almost time to return aboard the Going Merry for an adventure with the Straw Hats. You can find the video in the trailers section below.
When is Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 coming out?
Straw Hats, mark your calendars for Tuesday, March 10. All eight episodes of Season 2 are scheduled to drop that day.
Production on Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 started in July 2024 and wrapped in February 2025. Netflix marked the occasion with a sneak peek video.
Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 teasers and trailers
The final trailer for Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 is here, and it teases the epic fight between Zoro and Baroque Works agents that anime and manga fans know all too well. “There are a hundred of us,” Daniel Lasker’s Mr. 9 says at the trailer’s opening, “and only one of you.” In the original story, Whiskey Peak is the first time Zoro wields his three new swords. And now we’re anticipating a similar level of domination from the swordsman in the live action series.
The first official One Piece Season 2 trailer dropped on Feb. 10, and it’s a spectacle. “We put together an amazing crew, made it to the Grand Line, and now we’re one step closer to our dreams,” Monkey D. Luffy, the leader of the Straw Hats, says at the beginning of the video. “So let’s celebrate!” Of course, the celebrations can’t last long because the Grand Line comes with characters more dangerous than anyone we’ve seen in Season 1. The trailer also gives an extended look at the beloved reindeer-boy doctor Tony Tony Chopper.
A new teaser for Season 2 was released on Jan. 12, and it heavily features Baroque Works, a dangerous organization of assassins. The footage gives viewers a closer look at Charithra Chandran’s Miss Wednesday, Lera Abova’s Miss All-Sunday, David Dastmalchian’s Mr. 3, Camrus Johnson’s Mr. 5, Jazzara Jaslyn’s Miss Valentine, Daniel Lasker’s Mr. 9, and Sophia Anne Caruso’s Miss Goldenweek. The teaser also shows The Unluckies, the duo consisting of the otter Mr. 13 and the vulture Miss Friday.
Netflix previously dropped a first look video for One Piece Season 2 in August 2025. The teaser gives a glimpse of the Straw Hats’ upcoming adventures, and also introduces some of the highly anticipated characters new to the live-action series. Chandran’s Miss Wednesday and Callum Kerr’s Smoker both make an appearance in the first look video.

One Piece Seasons 2 and 3 renewals
In August 2025, Netflix announced that One Piece has scored an early Season 3 renewal. The streamer also confirmed that production for the next season was set to begin in Cape Town, South Africa, later in 2025. Ian Stokes — previously a co-executive producer on Season 1 — will join Joe Tracz as co-showrunner for Season 3. Matt Owens, the co-showrunner for the first two seasons, stepped away from the show in March after production for Season 2 wrapped. “The last six years working on the live-action One Piece have been a life-changing journey. A dream come true. It’s also been A LOT,” Owens wrote on Instagram at the time. “So I’m stepping off the Going Merry to take a break and focus on myself and my mental health.”
In September 2023, Netflix shared a video of One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda announcing Season 2’s renewal. Remember, his heavy involvement in Season 1 was a huge reason why the adaptation was such a hit. In true One Piece fashion, the news was delivered through a Transponder Snail. “Two weeks after the launch, I just received some great news,” Oda said. “Netflix has decided to renew the show! The adventures of Iñaki and the live-action Straw Hats will continue onward!”
