Netflix’s ‘One Piece’ Live-Action Breaks Records

The live-action adaptation of ‘One Piece’ by Netflix has taken the streaming world by storm, shattering records and garnering massive popularity. The series, based on Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga, has not only captured the hearts of fans but has also achieved remarkable viewership milestones.

In its first week of release, ‘One Piece’ amassed a staggering 18.5 million views, catapulting it to the top of Netflix’s TV list and surpassing all expectations. Furthermore, during its debut weekend, the series claimed the number-one spot on Netflix’s Top 10 chart in an astounding 84 countries, breaking the previous record held by hit shows like Wednesday and ‘Stranger Things.’

The online buzz surrounding ‘One Piece’ has solidified its status as a true masterpiece, maintaining its dominance on Netflix’s charts for an entire week. The show’s cast, including Iñaki Godoy as Monkey D. Luffy, Mackenyu as Roronoa Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji, has garnered praise for their performances.

As fans eagerly anticipate season 2, the good news is that the script for the next season is already complete, according to Marty Adelstein, the CEO of the production team. Producer Becky Clements also hinted at a potential timeline for the release, aiming for a year or 18 months after the resolution of the Hollywood SAG-AFTRA strike against the AMPTP.

However, Netflix is likely to evaluate ‘One Piece’s’ viewership in the coming weeks before making a decision about renewing the series. With the immense success it has achieved thus far, it’s safe to say that ‘One Piece’ has set sail on a truly remarkable live-action adventure. Fans can only hope that the numbers are indeed impressive enough for a much-anticipated season 2.
