The production of Netflix’sOne Piecelive-action season 2 is going full throttle as the series is anticipated to be released by the end of 2025. Fans have huge expectations for the upcoming season because the first season of Netflix’sOne Pieceadaptation broke the live-action curse and paved the way for many other prominent anime series to get a live-action adaptation.
The second season also holds a lot of significance for the future of the series, as it will be adapting the Alabasta saga, which is quite important for theOne Piecenarrative. It not only introduces major characters like Ace, Nico Robin, Crocodile, Chopper, etc. but also provides a glimpse into some of the biggest mysteries that will shape theOne Piecestoryline in the future.
While the fans eagerly wait for the live-action adaptation’s release, new rumors about the upcoming series have started making rounds on the internet, and it does not look good. According to these rumors, the second season ofOne Piecelive-action will probably have only 7 episodes, which might be disappointing as fans have been waiting for the series’ release for a long time.

While this may sound exciting, it looks like the series is still currently in the production phase, as actors from theOne Piecelive-action have indirectly pointed out thatthe shooting is still going on. Therefore, it may still take a few months for the series to get a release date, much less an official release. The series might get ready by mid-2025 and could see a release by the end of the year.
However, the excitement for the release might have gotten a little low as new rumors about the series have been revealed.

These rumors were shared by @OP_Netflix_Fan on X, and they claim that the upcoming season ofOne Piecelive-action might only have 7 episodes. This is indeed disappointing considering the fact that the first season ofOne Piecehad eight episodes.
7 Episodes Might Not Be Enough forOne PieceLive-Action
One of the main reasons why the notion thatOne Piecelive-action season 2 will only have 7 episodes is disappointing is the arcs that will be adapted within the series. It was confirmed by Oda himself that the second season of the series will be adapting Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whisky Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island.
While Loguetown is the final arc of the East Blue Saga, the rest of the arcs are a part of the Alabasta Saga, and it holds a lot of significant moments from the originalOne Piecestoryline. Thus, compressing all these crucial moments into 7 episodes might make them lose their importance within the series. There is also a chance that the creators might just ignore a lot of them.

If this happens, the Alabasta saga will not be as enticing and thrilling as fans are anticipating. It might also affect the success of the upcoming series. However, the only silver lining is that the only silver lining is that the main arc of the storyline, the Alabasta arc, will not be a part of season 2, which increases the possibility ofOne Piecelive-action getting a third season.
One Piecelive-action is available to watch on Netflix.
