The One Piece: Netflix Announces the Remake of the Anime Series
Netflix today announces, surprisingly, a new anime adaptation of the manga One Piece, using (as hoped) the iconic saga of the Eastern Sea and unleashing the enthusiasm of the global anime community on the second day of Jump Festa 2024. The anime series will be titled THE ONE PIECE and will be produced by the renowned WIT Studio, known for working on hit titles such as SPY x FAMILY and the first three seasons of Attack on Titan. After the success of the live-action series One Piece, Netflix has announced that the popular manga by Eiichirō Oda – still waiting for a conclusion – will receive a new anime adaptation, starting from the famous saga of East Blue.
The anime series, titled The One Piece, will be produced by the renowned WIT Studio, known for its work on hit series such as Spy x Family and Attack on Titan (Season 1-3). Currently in production, The One Piece will be broadcast exclusively on Netflix worldwide, representing a significant collaboration with the production committee, composed of representatives from Shueisha, Fuji Television Network, and Toei Animation Co. In a joint statement, the committee expressed commitment to this innovative project, which stands out from the anime TV series that has captivated audiences for over 25 years. With The One Piece, the production aims to provide viewers with an experience that is both new and familiar, using cutting-edge visual technologies to reinterpret Luffy’s adventures.

Another manga by Oda, created when he was just 19 years old, will also be adapted into an anime for the first time. Coming out in January, the anime adaptation Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation follows the story of Ryuma, a samurai trapped in a world shaken by a disturbing force: a dragon capable of wreaking catastrophic destruction on the land. This anime adaptation offers a unique opportunity for fans to discover Oda’s creative genius in his early years, offering a new perspective on his storytelling talent and a window into his imaginative world. Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation will be released on Netflix in January 2024.

Currently in production, THE ONE PIECE will be available to stream worldwide exclusively on Netflix, reflecting the important collaboration with THE ONE PIECE‘s production committee made up of representatives from Shueisha, Fuji Television Network, and Toei Animation Co In a joint statement the committee expressed its enthusiasm for this revolutionary project, which will distinguish itself from the television anime series that has captivated audiences around the world for over twenty-five years. With THE ONE PIECE, the committee wants to offer viewers a new and at the same time familiar experience using cutting-edge visual technologies to reinvent Luffy’s adventures within the framework of the popular East Sea saga. The manga written by Eiichiro Oda “ONE PIECE” celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in July 2022 with a total of over 510 million copies sold worldwide. The live-action series ONE PIECE (available for streaming exclusively on Netflix) has been a great success, while the TV anime series produced by Toei Animation has been on the air since 1999.
To this, we add another novelty: Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation, or another manga by Oda – a one-shot created at the age of nineteen – was adapted into anime for the first time. The action-packed series Monsters 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation will debut in January and tells the story of Ryuma, a samurai trapped in a world turned upside down by an evil force, a dragon capable of unleashing catastrophic chaos on the earth. This anime adaptation provides fans with a unique opportunity to discover Oda’s untimely creative genius, offering a new perspective on his storytelling skills and a glimpse into his fictional world.
