The series follows the adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates as they quest for the “One Piece,” a fabled prestige treasure that might elevate their captain, Monkey D. Luffy, to be “The King of the Pirates.”
Developed by Matt Owens and Steven Maeda (Salvation), Season 1 of the series focused on the first one hundred chapters of the popular manga.
The following fifty to one hundred chapters may be adapted if the show follows suit.
That would include storylines and arcs such as Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whisky Peak, and Little Garden.
These arcs are all strong possibilities, considering the cast list.
There’s no word about how many episodes One Piece Season 2 will receive.
Considering its worldwide success and acclaim, Netflix may increase the episode count.
Fans of One Piece and its source material will get all the live-action pirate booty, with a cast list that promises a plethora of exciting new and returning characters.
