The Straw Hats are gearing up for another wild voyage, and it’s finally official — One Piece Season 2 is sailing our way in 2026. Netflix made the big reveal during Tudum 2025: The Live Event, and yes, the Grand Line is calling. After a record-breaking first season, Luffy and crew are back, and production has already wrapped. That means the wait for more action, heartbreak, and devil-fruit chaos just got real.
Co-showrunner Matt Owens teases that things are about to get deeper and wilder: “When the Season 2 writers’ room got together, we knew how far we were going to get, and that this character Dr. Kureha was going to be a big part of the season.” If that wasn’t enough to send fans spiraling, he added (via Netflix), “Oda told everyone we’ll be meeting Chopper in Season 2.” That’s right — the fan-favorite reindeer doctor is making his live-action debut.
One Piece Season 2 Release Details
The crew officially returns in 2026. While Netflix hasn’t nailed down the exact month yet, production is already done and dusted. Behind-the-scenes shots from South Africa prove it’s in the can, and with Season 2 moving to the Grand Line, the stakes and visual spectacle are going up fast.

Even Eiichiro Oda himself dropped by the South African set, later writing, “My own casting selections were made from Japan over photos and videos, but seeing them all in person convinced me: They were absolutely the perfect choice!”
One Piece Season 2 Plot & What to Expect
Season 2 is heading straight into the heart of the One Piece saga. According to Oda’s update, the story will cover Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island. That’s a massive leap, both narratively and visually. Expect new villains, wackier powers, and the emotionally loaded backstory of Chopper.
Owens confirmed what fans have hoped for since the finale: “The place that we were talking about all of Season 1 — we’re in it now.”
So yeah, it’s time to rewatch those earlier episodes, stock up on snacks, and brace yourself. The Grand Line doesn’t take prisoners, and One Piece Season 2 looks ready to hit harder than ever.
