The wait seems to be finally over for One Piece fans, as the upcoming Tudum event is poised to drop a major announcement regarding the live-action show's upcoming sophomore season. While the debut season of One Piece on Netflix was a massive success, the upcoming second season is expected to set the bar even higher.

The Tudum event, which is supposed to take place on May 31, is speculated to reveal either a teaser or a full trailer for One Piece season two, alongside exclusive details about Netflix's next release lineup, as recently confirmed by @whatonnetflix on social media platform X.

Here's everything that we know.


The Tudum event is poised to drop a major One Piece season 2 announcement

Details surrounding the second season of One Piece have been remarkably kept under wraps by the streaming platform giant, in accordance with their policy of maximizing the impact of the upcoming announcement. The first season of the show was able to satiate both hard-core manga fans as well as first-time viewers, and consequently large sections of the audience expect the sophomore season of the show to be even bigger.

The upcoming Tudum event on May 31 is now being speculated to drop either a teaser or a full trailer for the second season of One Piece. In case fans of the show are handed down a full trailer, further details surrounding the plot of the upcoming season would be readily available. A definite premiere date announcement could also be on the cards for the event, as that would shore up the resultant momentum gathered by the event itself.


Matt Owens speaks about his first introduction to One-Piece

Alongside series creator Eiichiro Oda, Matt Owens has been drawing attention as the co-creator of the Netflix show. Following the huge success of the show's debut season, Owens sat down with Deadline in an exclusive interview. When asked about what first sparked his interest in the show, Owens recalled:

"I’ve been an anime fan my entire life. One Piece specifically i tried to dive into when I was younger and getting into a lot of other series like Naruto, Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z. But One Piece was a little difficult because the company that was dubbing it in English notoriously did a horrible job. It turned a lot of people off; it stripped out some of the heart, it stripped out some of the danger of the world, so I dropped it."

He further added:

"As I got older and continued in the genre, there was always a very vocal fan base for One Piece, guys you need to read it, you need to give it a try. I just never did. And then there was a period of time in my early 20s, I had just recently moved to Los Angeles. I was working on trying to get into the film and television business, and I was really depressed at this time. I just wanted to go to work and go home and not really deal with people or be social or anything like that. So I thought, well, now’s a great time to try and get into One Piece because there are hundreds and hundreds of episodes and I’m not doing anything else."

The show is exclusively available on Netflix.
