Here’s Everything We Know About Netflix One Piece Season 2
According to Netflix’s semiannual statistics release, One Piece, which debuted in August 2023, was the most popular series for the second half of 2023 based on views (total viewing hours divided by running time). A mere two weeks after its debut, the show was quickly renewed for a second season.
For season two, Matt Owens and Joe Tracz are executive producers and co-showrunners. Together with Steven Maeda, who is still an executive producer but has abdicated his showrunning responsibilities, Owens held the same title in season one.
After serving as a writer and co-executive producer on Disney+’s first season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Tracz now serves as an executive producer on the show. Creator of One Piece Eiichiro Oda, Tomorrow Studios’ Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements, Tetsu Fujimura, and Chris Symes also executive produce.
