One Piece is the name of a manga series that is a bestseller worldwide, especially in Japan. Netflix wanted to capitalize on this popularity and turned the book series into a series with an animated adaptation. The first season of the series was released on August 31 and broke records in its first week.
Shiftdelete.netAccording to the streaming giant’s statistics, One Piece topped the charts in 84 countries in its first weekend of release. This means that it surpassed other Netflix productions such as Stranger Things season 4 and Wednesday, which reached number one in 83 countries.
The show Shooter, which is among the most popular sniper series, is being removed from the Netflix library, disappointing its fans.
For those who haven’t seen the series yet, One Piece follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy, who sets sail in search of treasure. Iñaki Godoy plays the character of Luffy in the Netflix adaptation. The series features beloved names such as Emily Rudd and Mackenyu.
It was stated that the series took about 7 years to produce. Speaking on the subject, creative producer Eiichiro Oda said that they remained faithful to the manga series and their efforts paid off. It should be noted that the reactions from the audience have been positive so far.
Given the popularity of the first season and the breadth of the One Piece story, a second season seems inevitable. The first season of One Piece consists of 10 episodes and is available to watch in Turkey.
