Netflix’s One Piece Season 2 Finally Locks Down Release Date

The highly anticipated series, One Piece Into the Grand Line, will premiere globally on Netflix on March 10, 2026. While the exact number of episodes hasn’t been announced, it’s expected to have eight, similar to the first season. The series will adapt several key story arcs from Eiichiro Oda’s original manga, including Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island – details that have been hinted at in previously released images and teasers.

The new season will feature a fantastic cast including Mikaela Hoover as Tony Tony Chopper, Lera Abova as Nico Robin, and Joe Manganiello as Sir Crocodile. Charitha Chandran will play Vivi Nefertari, alongside Sendhil Ramamurthy as Cobra Nefertari. Other new additions include Daniel Lasker as Mr. 9, Camrus Johnson as Mr. 5, Jazzara Jaslyn as Miss Valentine, David Dastmalchian as Mr. 3, Werner Coetser as Dorry, Brendan Murray as Brogy, Callum Kerr as Smoker, Julia Rehwald as Tashigi, Rob Colletti as Wapol, Ty Keogh as Dalton, Katey Sagal as Dr. Kureha, and Mark Harelik as Dr. Hiriluk, among others.

Why Is Drum Island Special in One Piece?


Watching the beginning of One Piece as Luffy and his crew enter the Grand Line is exciting because you know they’re about to encounter characters who will be really important later on. A major moment happens on Drum Island with the introduction of Tony Tony Chopper, who becomes the next member of the Straw Hat crew. It’ll be interesting to see how the live-action series handles this part, as it feels like a crucial scene they need to get right before moving forward with the story.

Good news for fans: Netflix has confirmed a third season of One Piece is coming, and they’re already hard at work on it! If the anime and manga are any indication, the live-action series is going to take viewers on an incredible journey. Now’s a great time to rewatch the first season, which is currently available on Netflix, to get ready.
