Monkey D. Luffy's (Iñaki Godoy) journey to the Grand Line has only just begun, and we're patiently waiting for him and the live-action versions of the Straw Hats to return and continue their adventure. 

Filming for Netflix's live-action One Piece Season 2 began in 2024. The first season featured plenty of characters from Eiichiro Oda's beloved manga. And, based on the announcements made so far, Season 2's cast promises to be bigger and better.

The first season adapted most of the manga's East Blue Saga up to the Arlong Park arc, which can only mean one thing: Loguetown arc is next! The Netflix series' season finale teased Marine vice admiral Smoker, so we're anticipating Season 2 to pick up with this antagonist. 

Netflix's One Piece stars Godoy as Monkey D. Luffy, Mackenyu as Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero Gibson as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji. 

Here's everything we know so far about Netflix's One Piece Season 2.

Which arcs will One Piece Season 2 adapt?

Oda shared an update on Aug. 20, 2024 that includes which arcs from the manga Season 2 will adapt. "The story will cover Loguetown, Reverse Mountain (Twin Cape), Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island!" he said in a letter posted on One Piece's official account. "Imagine how much it'll cost! Lol."

One Piece Season 2 renewal

On Sept. 14, 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!"
