Now 25 years since the series’ TV premiere, “ONE PIECE” has taken its place as part of mainstream pop culture, attracting fans of all ages. Today, the franchise encompasses 15 feature films, numerous video games, a trading card game and a constantly growing catalog of licensed apparel, footwear, accessories, toys, games, sporting goods, stationary, gifts, novelties, household goods, books, food & beverage, and location-based entertainment.

Crunchyroll describes the series as follows:

Monkey. D. Luffy refuses to let anyone or anything stand in the way of his quest to become the king of all pirates. With a course charted for the treacherous waters of the Grand Line and beyond, this is one captain who’ll never give up until he’s claimed the greatest treasure on Earth: the Legendary One Piece!

WIT STUDIO and Netflix announce the production for “THE ONE PIECE“, a new ONE PIECE project! This project will recreate the story of the original “ONE PIECE” manga, starting from the East Blue arc.
