Netflix Drops the Synopsis and Episode Titles for ‘One Piece’ Live Action Ahead of Its August Release
One Piece truly lives up to its name through being a one of a kind adventure anime series. While anime and manga have both enjoyed overflowing love from all around the globe through many years, their tenure as a favorite might just get extended thanks to Netflix. The OTT Mogul has been crafting its One Piece live action series to perfection for a long time and now it is finally ready to show it to the world.
Netflix has spent a considerable amount of time and money since announcing the One Piece live-action series. This is probably because of the bitter taste that fans still have in their mouth from the streamer’s previous attempts at a live action anime. But given how ethereal the trailer and images from the sets look, fans feel that this might just be the charm. And to further convince them, Netflix has dropped One Piece live-action series synopsis and titles.

To mark the premiere of the series, the streamer will release an episode titled Romance Dawn. This episode will naturally be focusing on the basics. And as per the simple synopsis, it will follow a plot simple and understandable enough that even non anime fans can enjoy the series.
From the second episode onwards, which is titled The Man In The Straw Hat, the series will follow Luffy, Zoro, and Nami will mark the beginning of the crew’s adventures as they are trapped by Buggy.
Fans were not expecting Buggy to be introduced so early. In fact, his fight with Zoro was predicted to be the finale maker. But looks like the makers have other plans.
Will Netflix drop all One Piece live-action episodes at once?

Netflix announced during its grand TUDUM event that One Piece live-action will be releasing on the 31st of August. However, it is unclear if the streamer will drop all episodes at once and save the finale for a later date. If the synopsis is anything to go by, then episode seven and eight are perfectly cliff hanger materials.
The episodes are titled Tell No Tales, The Pirates Are Coming, Eat at Baratie!, The Chef and the Chore Boy, The Girl With the Sawfish Tattoo, and Worst in the East, from Episode 3 onwards and the tales they hold are pretty obvious to fans of the anime. However, the anime community will be seated with watchful eyes to see if Netflix will actually do justice to the enamoring story of One Piece.
