Let me say that Mr 3’s actor is gonna be insane. I know he was in Openhimer. I hope to see more of the cast later on

[@boxfullery]

surprised to see you here haha

[@damsaucy]

dude i love that actor he's great
oppenheimer, suicide squad, dune, happy, bro never misses

[@jesusriced]

​@damsaucy he just played a main role in the movie late night with the devil. Good movie

[@icantthinkofaname158]

my personal theory behind this is that you dont want to spoil all the big surprises, so they gave what they did for now

[@Frosty90651]

Yeah I agree

[@americasteam2112]

Season 1 was supposed to be 10 but covid made them shorten it to 8. I think season 2 will be 10 episodes.
1. Loguetown
2. Reverse Mountain
3. Whiskey Peak
4. Little Garden
5. Drum Island Part 1
6. Drum Island part 2
7. Alabasta Part 1
8. Alabasta Part 2
9. Alabasta Part 3
10. Alabasta Part 4
They could easily do all of Alabasta in four episodes.

[@jakebutnotfromstatefarm6044]

What’s the pacing for the live action and how long are the episodes? I didn’t know the pacing was gonna be like that.

[@Fire.Fist21]

Bro reverse mountain arc is short aint no way they need a whole 1 hour for that arc

[@argl3z]

My take , i think i read that it will be 8 episodes
1- logue town reverse mountain part1
2- reverse mountain covering with whiskey peak
3- little garden
4 Drum Island part 1
5- Drum island part 2
6-8 Alabasta

[@momotsuyuonce9473]

didnt they say ots going to be 12 episodes?

[@second1387]

Reverse Mountain arc can be split in episode 1 and 2. Episode 1 ends when the crew entered the Grand Line and found a mysterious large mountain (whale). And then the start of episode 2 will be the Laboon backstory + whole of Whiskey Peak. So that episode 3 will be all Little Garden which will be a cool detail since the main villain is related to the number 3

[@heathertilert]

A few months ago the actor for Usopp had a RUclips video on the RUclips channel called “still watching Netflix” where he answered fan mail and said season 2 would have around 50 episodes, but then again he also said they would be heavily “Usopp-driven”, and he was generally joking a lot in that video, so we should probably take that with a huge grain of salt.

[@blipblipblip4892]

As much as i wanted the season 2 to slow down and let season 3 to alabasta? The problem is its a live action, actors age by year so i wanted it to end the alabasta in season 2 and added more episode so it can be fitted and not rush.

[@second1387]

I am sure that season 2 will adapt all the way to Alabasta. Loguetown arc will be much shorter since Smoker already know what Luffy looks like (as seen in season 1). They would definitely cut down all the fillers and padding that the anime has (especially Alabasta). They can even include some future moments like episode 151 where we see some other warlords as well as the fleet admiral which can possibly added in the last episode in order to keep the suspense and remind everyone how big the world of One Piece is

[@randomsunflower6998]

I heard that they are filming season 2 & 3 at or around the same time so hopefully that won’t be an issue

[@blipblipblip4892]

@@second1387 i am really looking forward to the actor that they will cast as whitebeard and aokiji haha

[@combogalis]

honestly it's not the worst thing in the world if the characters in one piece age more than in the anime. if it takes 12 years then makeup and effects should be able to cut it down to significantly less, even if it's still more than just the 3ish years of the manga. luffy being called, for example, 23 and looking 27 isn't so bad

[@emmarod8746]

If they added like 2 to 4 more hour long episodes to the season I think they could adapt Albastra pretty well in the next season.

[@Hansi999]

They can only do alabasta if they do 10 eps for the season.
Ep 1: Logue town & Reverse mountain (10 chapters)
Ep 2: Whiskey Peak (9 chapters)
Ep 3: Little Garden (15 chapters)
Ep 4-5: Drum Island (25 chapters)
Ep 6-10: Alabasta (62 chapters)

[@jaredlally2135]

they said they're doing twelve

[@zmotion755]

​@@jaredlally2135nah live action ussop gave spoilers and he said there was 50 episodes

[@ololreolol]

The Alabasta arc can be easily condensed and fit into just 3 episodes. There is a bunch of walking around in the desert from point A to B to C etc and a lot of different cities and locations (Katorea, Erimalu, Yuba, Rainbase, Nanohana, Alubarna and more) that could be merged together or even skipped for convenience, since some of them are visited only briefly. Also, the fights would be much shorter compared to the source material, just like in season 1. I honestly believe that Alabasta can work with only 3 episodes. As far as the rest goes: 1 ep Loguetown, 1 ep Reverse Mt & Whiskey Peak, 1 ep Little Garden and 2 ep Drum Island (every main character gets a 2 ep arc), would be just fine also, as long as they don't try to shoehorn something else in there. I'm more concerned about the quality of the episodes tbh, since things get much crazier in the Grand Line (new powers and abilities, new races and creatures, new locations and climates). The casting has been great though, so far 👍

[@Hansi999]

No way, they need at least 5, it's 62 chapters

[@EmTVinfinity]

@@Hansi999 did you not even read what he commented literally 9/10 of alabasta is useless of the story

[@Enyoiyourself]

I would honestly hope they get 10 episodes as they originally planned the Romance Dawn Saga to be and problem solved. Logue Town (Episode 1), Twin Capes & landing on Whiskey Peak (Episode 2), Whiskey Peak (Episode 3), Little Garden (Episode 4), Departing Little Garden and Drum Island (Episode 5-6), then Alabasta having 7, 8, 9 & 10 gives us enough time. I mean in the anime it has been condensed into a movie length before.

[@xXBananaBearXx]

I hope they put all of Alabasta in season 2

[@OK-fo5tm]

I don't think putting the entire alabasta saga into 8 episodes is possible. I'd say they do upto drum island and the alabasta kingdom be a movie

[@Aarika101]

They can. And I know they will.

[@second1387]

Romance Dawn to Arlong Park is 95 manga chapters as far as I remember, while Loguetown to Alabasta is 121 chapters. Take note, Loguetown arc will be much shorter since Smoker already know what Luffy look like as seen in season 1. So I believe that even in 8 episodes, they can cover up to whole of Alabata

[@Aarika101]

@@second1387 1. Logue town and maybe reverse mountain
2. Whiskey peak and little garden
3, 4. Drum kingdom
5-8. Alabasta
If there is 9 and 10, maybe jaya and a little tease about sky island

[@second1387]

@@Aarika101 You're thoughts are almost similar to mine. Here's the sequence of how I think will suit in an 8-episode format:
1 -> Loguetown + Ending at where the crew passed Reverse Mountain where a cliffhanger will happen when the story showed a mysterious large whale
2 -> Twin Capes (Laboon Backstory) + Whole of Whiskey Peak [They can also include an additional Garp-Koby storyline where they will show us how they will enter the Grand Line through the Calm Belts]
3 -> Little Garden
4 - 5 -> Drum Island (pretty much how Nami's arc in season 1 went through)
6 - 8 -> Alabasta
Here's my reasons why I think of this:
- Entering the Reverse Mountain and discovering a giant whale is the first major checkpoint in the first saga of the Grand Line. So having it at the ending of episode 1 will be the best choice.
- Little Garden is suitable for episode 3. One of the LA-only things I liked is where they do the opening title that is themed to someone that is a main focus in that episode with the theme music playing at the start of an episode. So if they will do an opening title in episode 3, and if they will theme the title to the main villain (Mr. 3) then it is a cool detail to put it in the third episode because of Mr. 3's hair.
- I believe Alabasta can fit in three episodes since I think they will condense and remove some traveling-the-desert moments and pretty much a short adventure and then followed by major fights.
- The ending of episode 2 and the ending of the season 2 finale (episode 8) will have a cool parallel. Episode 2 will end where Miss All Sunday shows up in the Going Merry, and Episode 8 will end where the same person will show up but as a different identity (Nico Robin) which will make people interested in her at the next season

Pretty sure it's already been confirmed that Season 2 is going to be more than 8 episodes.

6 ep = drum island / arabasta ( luffy attacked by crocodile in dessert )
7 ep = arabasta
8 ep = arabasta (end) ( final scene robin joins " x mark farewell to vivi"/ similar to barrel oath on season 1 the wrap up ending )

Whaaaat
It would be CRAZY to finish Alabasta at the end of S2. I'd even be happy if they barely get to the end of Alabasta at the end of S3.

[@musamelody9764]

Just from the thumb tag, he said, I am not putting my finger up my nose😂

[@cwega2463]

i don’t think it’s cause for concern at all. netflix cast announcements are usually done at about 3-6 people at a time, periodically for a few months. for season one, we got the five straw hats in november 2021. in march 2022 we got shanks, arlong, garp, helmeppo, koby and buggy. then in June we got most of the syrup village and baratie casting. and then over the next year it was random characters being added to the cast every few months.
the fact that after 2 days we have most of the first of the baroque works members, crocus and dorry and broggy, it’s clear they’re just announcing the early major characters first. we will get to alabasta.

[@ladybookworms]

Are you perhaps implying that Smoker and Tashigi are not major characters? I'm concerned that they have skipped over a lot of characters in between and gave us characters who come much later in the story than where we left off.

[@cwega2463]

@@ladybookworms i’m saying they’re nowhere near as Major for this arc as Robin, Chopper Vivi or Crocodile. also smoker and tashigi were not announced when i wrote this comment. but either way, we STILL have not received the MAJOR characters.

[@ladybookworms]

@@cwega2463 True. I think those announcements need to come first over the Baroque works officer agents. Come to think of it all of them are major players for the second season. I wonder if they are having trouble casting these people.

[@cwega2463]

@@ladybookworms nope, they’re already casted. this is just how announcing them works for western shows. announcing a few members every so often for a few months.
it took us over a year to get all the cast announcements for season one. it was until production finished that they announced the majority of the baratie and arlong park cast.

[@vikib1758]

So I don't remember where, but I'm sure I saw a news on Tumblr that said there would be between 10 and 12 episodes.

[@PRESSUREyou]

Yeeeeeeeah I can't wait ...

[@PossessedbyPhoenix]

Conflicted because pacing-wise it would probably be better to have Alabasta be Season 3 to dedicate more time to telling the story, and I don't mind waiting...the real issue, however, is the actors aging. Many of the strawhat actors are already around 30 (Nami's 31). If the pacing's too slow then nevermind time skip, we might not even get to learn that the One Piece is reeeeeeeal before actors get too old or get other commitments and drop out of the show.

[@wolfbanefist111]

they'll probably get do multiple season recordings ahead of time. i think they got the go ahead for multiple seasons now. so its possible they can do that.

[@nabun111]

Just insane how much efford they make, to find the Cast. I'm relaxed. They only reveald sidecharakters. Even Mr.3 is no big deal. They will wait with the reveal of any important actor, to gain more hype in closere to the release.

[@095-tayordarang2]

The thumbnail : he picked his nose and then ate the booger

[@phillykat36]

Mr. 3 and 5 castings are the best. That’s exciting. Honestly, I never expected them to get to Alabasta. That would be too much of a rush job unless we get 12+ episodes.

[@Infritblade123]

I heard S2 is going to be 12 episodes, not 8. Also keep in mind that the live action cuts out a lot. Don Krieg was 1shot by Mihawk instead of having a full-out brawl with Luffy. We can expect the same to happen in S2 of the live action. Also, just because they revealed 4 cast members(6 actually, Dory and Broggy were also revealed) doesn’t mean anything. We are likely to get more reveals as time progresses. With Dr. Kureha/Smoker/Croc as the final big reveal. Because we already know who’s playing Dr.K, but the hype around it being confirmed will be insane.

[@RealMilester1]

Dude concern???? Dude they are gonna make Alabasta the Third season and thats perfect , that casting showed me that I was right about how to split up the arcs and almost every other fan wants the whole Alabast in the second season. This is perfect to build up Crocodile as the big bad of Season three which they shoot right after the Second, that way they can have a full season budget for two season that need alot of CGI and sets so yeah this concern thing is really weird

[@TakeD.L]

The episode situation doesn't seem to be much of a problem because by the looks of things Season will have about 12 episodes rather than 8

[@less96]

I don’t really think we need to worry because I heard season 2 potentially will be 12 episodes also season 1 was supposed to be 10 but ofc due to covid it was 8 so theirs most likely gonna be more than 10 episodes.

[@alfredo6391]

I think believing that it will take two extra years to end Alabasta is actually a strange idea, in my opinion either they extend season 2 into 10 episodes or they release season 2 and then continue filming for season 3 and release it as an extension that might end with Skypea

[@impulse3150]

Posted a bit early huh? Did you miss the others that were released a couple of hours after?

[@tedecamp]

To answer the question at the end, why does it have to be only eight episodes a season? Instead of making us wait 4-5 years before we see the end of the Alabasta saga, wouldn't it make more sense to just add an extra 2 or 3 episodes to the season instead of restraining the writers to only 8? Netflix already knows its going to be a success so why restrain the One Piece team?

[@vspence2]

I never expected Arabasta to completely finish in season 2. In fact, the most dramatic end to the season would be the cliffhanger of Luffy’s first defeat against Crocodile since it leaves an urgency for the audience that makes them want to come back to see the resolution. A lot of Netflix series end seasons on cliffhangers like that. My biggest worry is that they don’t even get to Arabasta at all

[@rngsilver]

Something to let you know
The actor who played Luffy let slip that crocodile was actually already shown in season 1

[@kiragordon5300]

You are right they have to get Dragon,Ace and the rest of broke works

[@dannydawn]

I already said right after watching Season One, that the series will go on like this…
Season Two:
Episode 1 - Logue Town
Episode 2 - Reverse Mountain/Laboon & Crocus
Episode 3 - Whisky Peak
Episode 4 & 5 - Little Garden
Episode 6, 7 & 8 - Drum Island to Alabasta
Maybe we‘ll skip Whisky Peak and they‘ll rewrite some of the Baroque Works/Alabasta characters into Laboon, Drum and Little Garden…
We‘ll probably meet Mr. 2 at the end of Episode 8 and then head on to Alabasta.
Season Three will be exclusively Alabasta, all 8 episodes the Alabasta Arc.
Season Four will cover Skypiea and then probably move onto Water 7, finishing off in Episode 8 (S4E8) with the fight between Luffy and Usopp or with Franky or with Robin being captured or something like that, so that Season Five will start with Enies Lobby and then go on to Thriller Bark and close off with Sabaody…
Season Six will then pick up with Amazon Lily/Marineford/3D2Y and via Sabaody continue to Fishman Island…
Maybe we‘ll even see Punk Hazard in Season Six which would tease and introduce Dressrosa/Doflamingo for Season 7…
Season Seven obviously would entirely cover Dressrosa.
Season Eight goes on to Zou and Whole Cake Island…
Season Nine would entirely be Wano Kuni, while Season Ten would begin with Egghead/Future Island for the first two or three episodes and then cover whatever comes after it, maybe Elbaf.
Either Season 10 or Season 11 would finish the entire series. Maybe with 10 episodes in Season 10…

[@retrogamermax8287]

I have to say that even if we don't get the Alabasta Arc itself in Season 2, it would be so worth the wait if we get Alabasta, Jaya and the entirety of Skypiea all in Season 3. I mean, it's not ridiculous to think about when if all of Season 3 is the Skypiea Saga, 80% most definitely would be nothings but Skypiea if the Alabasta Saga isn't done by then. And adding Alabasta to Jaya and Skypiea in Season 3 would make the season feel longer and feel like it has more content and story to it. I, for one, wouldn't complain as right after all of that is the Water 7 Saga, which, in my opinion, is the best Saga in the whole story.

[@pegasussword4292]

In my opinion, which I don't know if they announced something about that or not, They will make up to end of drum island this next season and they will process over Alabasta for another (3rd) season further.

[@aju.s13]

casting is good so far

[@QDPenguin]

big shot actors, very promising if they decide to go for more seasons beyond Alabasta

[@ratiuvictor9533]

Whe don't know If they would make whisky peak. They could just move the characters introductions to other arks like reverse mountain and little garden
This is how I would make it
Ep1 Logue town with part of reverse mountain
Ep2 the rest of Logue town with arival at Littlegarden
Ep3 Little Garden
Ep4-5 Drum Island
EP 6-8 Alabasta. If they cut a lot of the desert they could make the ark in 3 episodes.
Wisky Peak is fun but besides the introductions of Robin, 5 and valentine and the Vivi Reveal nothing realy important happened. Those things can easely be moved to reverse mountain or to little garden. Maiby even to Drum Island to give that ark more antagonists. In Alabasta there are so many things that can be cut or shorten. They need in season 3 to have a full season for Jaya, Skypea maiby even for Long Ring Long Land just becouse the sets for Skypea will be super expensive. It would be pretty great if they finish season 3 with the Aokiji meating at the end of Jaya so that they could have a full season for Water Seven and Enies Loby in season 4. In season 5 I would put Triller Bark, Sabaody and Amazon Lily endying with Luffy finding about Ace's execution.
Season 6 Impel Down, Marineford and the post Marineford flashbacks. Ending with Luffy ringing the bell and 3d2y message whyle showing everybody starting training.

[@billmorse5724]

I don't know... Considering how Alabaster is the first time Luffy gets REALLY beaten, it could work as a good season cliffhanger.

Hope that Netflix will relate to the Original Source and that Oda-sensei will still have the last word if it comes to the Live-action adaptation of his masterpiece.😆

[@JoshBou]

I always said season 2's big climax should be Drum island and maybe set up Alabasta, that way you can devote all of season 3 to Alabasta and end that season by setting up Skypia. It just makes sense pacing wise. People are in too much of a rush to get to the bigger arcs and aren't considering those new fans at the beginning of the One Piece journey.

It would be better for them to pace it out more and have alabasta be in season 3. The finale for season 2 could be drum kingdom.

[@second1387]

I think it's not a really great decision to do that. The season will mainly be focused on Vivi and the Baroque Works, so having the season ending at Drum Island which the crew just took side quest to find a doctor for Nami will result in losing the build-up feels for Alabasta. Some characters will also feel pointless too. Like Usopp will only have a moment in Little Garden and that's it. Sanji will also don't have that many moments too. Zoro will have a moment in Whiskey Peak but then his aura will go downhill if the season ends in Drum Island. If they will truly end in Drum Island then I expect the showrunners to change how the plot will run

[@zahidshabir4038]

I most prominently know Mr 3's actor from The Dark Knight as well as DC TV shows "The Flash" and "Gotham" although I have not seen Oppenheimer or the Suicide Squad films yet (The latter of which I never saw because a film based on what I assume is just about The Joker's love interest didn't seem too interesting to me)

[@SilverkongYGO1982]

To me the casting of Dastmalchin leads me to believe that Galdino is going to be the main antagonist and Little Garden will take up most of season 2. This way they can end on a double cliffhanger of Nami falling ill and the reveal of Crocodile and Robin who dispatch Bon Clay to kill Mr. 3.

Storywise, that would be a bad decision to not include Alabasta in my opinion. The whole season will be mainly focus about Vivi and the Baroque Works. Ending it at Drum Island will lose all the suspense and build-up for Alabasta especially for watchers who don't know the manga or anime. The first season covered 95 chapters (Romance Dawn to Arlong Park and even include some cover stories and moments from the future), Loguetown to end of Alabasta is 121 chapters if I am not mistaken. Loguetown arc here in season 2 will be much shorter since Smoker already knew what Luffy look liked unlike in the source material. They can also cut down some desert-travelling in Alabasta arc to condense it. So I believe they can cover up to end of Alabasta even in a 8-episode format. Doesn't matter how many episodes the season will take but I certainly believe that episode 3 is all Little Garden because why not? The main villain there is Mr. 3

[@kenevans6565]

I was always hoping they would take their time with the live action. Use season 2 for Grand Line hype/appreciation (Loguetown, Reverse Mtn, Rumbar Pirates, Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, end with Drum Kingdom. It is not as though the Grand Line is boring, so why rush to the conclusion of Alabasta so soon), then do proper Alabasta as 3.

4. Little garden part two

6. Drum island part two

The shoot ss 2&3 together at the same time. Therefore, the entire season 3 will be dedicated to Arabasta arc. MY guess.

[@fleinkantarell]

Reducing fights from 10 episodes to 15 minutes might help.

[@CaioGuerra19]

There is no way season 2 doesn't finish alabasta's saga. They have at least 10 seasons ahead to catch up so they don't have to slow down

[@Phoxxxx]

Season 2 ends at the introduction of alabasta. Alabasta will be a netflix movie.

[@mustaqimmokhtar615]

Vivi is gonna be a controversial 1

[@teh_shaw4103]

I can see half of Alabasta being the first half of season 3 and the second half being all of Skypiea witch might be for the best because Skypiea isn't a strong enough arc to be an entire season and might kill the live action if they even attempt it.

[@coderaven1107]

I think its a lot better if they take their time. I would rather have less story progress with good attention to detail instead of getting rushed content later. So its also the 2nd for me.

[@Zanroff]

The power of having Oda making final decisions.

[@Hoveai]

I really wanna see those smug birds in Alabasta that steal the Straw Hats food. The image of them stealing the supplies and rubbing it in the Straw Hats face. Then Luffy captures them for food would be hilarious.

[@yograjnimgaonkar1508]

live action casting team hasn't let us down only applies to the main characters. they did disappoint for some side characters. example: Nojiko

[@blatrielle]

i know a lot of people are excited for mr. 3 and i am as well but who is going to play mr. 2........that actor has to be amazing

[@Dxco31]

Let's trust oda and matt owens

[@Sage44475]

the guy on the thumbnail is so fine

[@arv9915]

All of Alabasta, because they are gonna become old

[@eduardweber2097]

I am convinced that the live action either ends at Alabasta or at Skypea.
Season 2 will not unlikly end after Choppers recruitment and the emotional far well from Dr Kureha. Season 3 will be the rest of the Alabasta arc with the groups goodbye to Vivi. Maybe something of an 2 parter. Chopper alone will eat a big amount of the budget and I want them to make it good if possible like many others. For that I am willing to accept season 2 and 3 to have 6 episodes each if needed.

[@TheOnlyVoid11]

It’s fine there are no worries they are making s2 longer

[@sergiocm2911]

They're not going to literallycopy the anime. Like season 1, they'll cut a lot of uninportant things and change everything a bit. So I think they can fit it all in 8 episodes or they might add a few so maybe like 10 episodes

[@cwega2463]

definitely not 8, but 10 for sure. season 1 covered 95 chapters in 8 episodes. which i felt was fine really well in the end. but this season has 122 to cover. it’s a bit too much to cut into 8 episodes.

[@DrewParker-vy1pw]

They are adding twelve episodes instead of 8 for season two

[@mrs_know_it_all153]

LONG COMMENT INCOMING + SPOILERS:
I think the second season must end with Drum Island. We would all love to see the intriguing Alabasta politics, but it would be terribly unwise on the showrunner's part. Admitting we get rid of the filler episodes of the anime, we're left with 32 episodes - leading up to the Alabasta arc, of 20 minutes each, to adapt in 8 (or 10) episodes of an hour. That is roughly 3 anime episodes per live action episode. And for the various events and characters we've already been promised up to today's cast reveal, it is utterly unrealistic to expect more. Smoker, Dragon, Laboon, Dorry and Broggy on Little Garden, Chopper, the Baroque Works characters and their demon fruit abilities, the sakura explosion at the end of Drum Island, the possible participation of Jaime Lee Curtis and the paycheck she deserves...etc. All of that will cost money. Insane amounts of it. And that is without the ships, sets and existing casting salaries. So if we are to get good writing and pacing, this is the best possible course of action:
Ep 1: Logue Town. Ep 2: Reverse Mountain (Laboon).
Ep 3: Whiskey Peak - the crew arrives, Zoro vs Baroque Works, Mr 5 and Miss Valentine get introduced, Vivi's secret is revealed and Mr 9 gets beaten to protect her.
Ep 4: Whiskey Peak - Nami and Igaram speak of Alabasta, Zoro protects Vivi, Zoro vs Luffy, Vivi explains her situation, Igaram dies, Robin and Mr 0 get introduced. Mr 3 is seen. The crew departs.
Ep 5: Little Garden - Sanji looks for food, Luffy and Vivi meet Dorry, Nami and Ussop meet Broggy. They fight for the first time. Everyone but Ussop and Luffy get captured by Mr 3. The giants have a second duel and the episode ends with Luffy screaming at the sky and stuck because of Dorry's doing.
Ep 6: Little Garden - Sanji speaks to Mr 0 and gets an eternal pose, Luffy and Ussop fight Mr 3, Mr 5 and miss Valentine, which takes up most of the episode. Ussop shines in this precise one. The crew gets going.
Ep 7: Drum Island - Nami falls ill. Sanji tries to treat her, but fails. We get a little storm sequence before arriving on Drum. Wapol gets introduced and gets forgotten. Dalton, Chopper and Kureha get introduced. We get some of their flashback stories via Dalton, while Luffy tries to get Sanji and Nami to Doctorine.
Episode 8: Drum Island - Nami, Sanji, Luffy get treated. They meet Chopper. Vivi and Dalton get some character development. We get Hiluluk's flashback story. Wapol comes in, fights against Luffy and Chopper. They win and bond. The episode ends with two things: Chopper joins the crew with Dr Kureha who provokes the sakura explosion, and we get a sneak peak at Ace's character.
Notice I haven't mentioned Smoker, who will probably take up Garp's place as the good cop and we cannot forsee what other exclusive content may be added. So, yes. No Alabasta arc might be for the best.

[@schwindsichtigaderechte5293]

I hope they don't go through Alabasta in Season two! It's much to complex to rush! I hope htey dedicate all the time and resources needed to make the show as good as it deserves to be.

[@Gobey1Kenobi]

perfect casting is Mr 3! David is going to be great!

[@Zejoant]

season 2 not finishing alabasta is a good thing my dude. Then it wont be rushed and skip too much.

[@ShaggyNorvilleRogers]

How has no one brought up Ace? He is so likely to appear but no one mentions it😭

[@Nitemare0faGamer]

I’m sorry for Mr 5’s actor because he’s gonna haft to pick his nose on screen

[@StrawHatNoble]

I find it funny you say your most excited for the most out of character scene in the show in my opinion (luffy v zoro in whiskey peak)

[@binxbb9234]

They should just cover drum island and alabasta, forget all the smaller arcs

[@ATVOffroadFurry]

THIS IS NOT A CAUSE FOR CONCERN! The Netflix live action One piece show needs to slow down in order for it to be as effective as the manga/anime. Any fan of the show respects the pacing and we understand why it’s there. The show needs to breathe and season one felt so air restricted. IT IS A GOOD THING IF THEY DONT BET TO ALABASTA IN SEASON 2!

[@holospade30]

if they speed through season 2 I'm not even gonna try to watch it bro

[@PlantsFromTexas]

If that man doesn't pick his nose I'm gonna be pissed >:(

[@ramadhanbenny6640]

cooler Buggy and cooler Galdino makes me the expectation for cooler Bentham, and that's kinda asking too much😅

[@yanickberthelot]

SEASON 2 AND 3 ARE BOTH IN THE MAKING AT THE SAME TIME...
