One Piece Season 2: Everything we know, including all new cast members

Everything we know about One Piece Season 2 on Netflix, including release window, confirmed plot, and new cast members.

Get ready to sail the four seas because Netflix’s One Piece is about to hit the Grand Line, with more characters, and fresh stories.

Season 1 of the TV show landed on Netflix in 2023, and Season 2 has been shooting for much of 2024.

So let’s look at what’s ahead for the One Piece cast and characters, including details of the many actors who have joined the ensemble.

One Piece Season 2 release window

One Piece Season 2 will be released in 2025. It started filming in June 2024.

The release window was announced after Netflix confirmed the series’ renewal in 2023.

This was likely due to the number of viewers the first season earned, reportedly 37.8M views in less than two weeks.

Critical responses were also positive, with our One Piece review giving the show 4 stars, “While many anime live-action adaptations often feel like soulless recreations, One Piece at least seems like it’s trying to create something new out of what has come before, and it’s doing so with a passion just as infectious as Luffy’s.”

In an interview with Deadline shortly after filming began, Tomorrow Studios President Becky Clements provided an update on the filming schedule for season 2, claiming that the team is still “a long time out” from wrapping.

“July and August are the tougher months, and we adjusted our schedule so that most of our exterior stuff would shoot closer to the end of the year, summer. This is a very VFX-heavy year, so it’s going to be a while. We are a long time out. We film into December.”

Clement’s timeline appears to have been correct based on the latest info from those on set. While no official announcement has been made by Tomorrow Studios, filming for One Piece Season 2 wrapped on December 16, 2024.

The news comes courtesy of Cape Town-based stunt woman Natalie Walsh in a now-expired Instagram story. Walsh posted a photo alongside fellow stuntpeople and choreographers working on One Piece Season 2 with the caption: “Wrap Party vibes”.

The studio looks to be on track for One Piece Season 2’s 2025 release window and with filming all wrapped up, promotional material and trailers shouldn’t be too far away.

One Piece Season 2 plot: What is it about?

Netflix’s live-action One Piece has been a big success so far

The new co-showrunner, Joe Tracz, confirmed the next arc to Deadline, “It’s a dream and a joy to come aboard the Going Merry as it enters the Grand Line.” Tracz also promised the adventures would get “even grander.”

There’s plenty of future material for the show to cover, so if the next chapter does well, expect a lot more.
