The second season of One Piece has arrived on Netflix and is receiving rave reviews, earning a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. This success follows a very positive reception to the first season, which scored 93% on the review site.
It’s a bit surprising the live-action series has continued to receive positive reviews, since second seasons often see a drop in quality. However, Luffy and his crew have once again won over both critics and fans.
In the second season, Luffy and his crew, the Straw Hats, begin their adventure on the Grand Line – a famous and dangerous sea full of incredible sights. While searching for the ultimate treasure, they’ll explore strange islands and face powerful new foes.
We at Digital Spy really enjoyed it, describing it as a deeply heartwarming experience. We said it was comforting to revisit a world where hope shines even during difficult times – a feeling many of us could use right now.
Season two successfully expanded on the strengths of the first season. According to Inverse, the show is now able to focus on what has consistently drawn viewers in: exciting journeys to different islands, over-the-top villains, and emotionally impactful stories that sneak up on you.
I’ve been watching One Piece, and honestly, after a really strong first season, season two feels like a huge step up. That’s what critic Perri Nemiroff said, and I totally agree – it’s just wildly better in a lot of ways!

GamesRadar praised the second season of One Piece, saying it captures the optimistic spirit of the show’s characters and is a significant improvement overall – exactly what fans have been waiting for.
According to The AV Club, the show’s success is largely due to the creative team working behind the scenes. They praised how the team, including Owens and Tracz, consistently manages to give surprising emotional complexity to what are essentially cartoon characters.
Even if you don’t usually cry during movies, this one might surprise you. According to RogerEbert.com, it’s delightfully quirky and openly emotional, which gives it a surprising amount of power.
The show features Iñaki Godoy as Monkey D. Luffy, Emily Rudd as Nami, Mackenyu as Roronoa Zoro, Jacob Romero Gibson as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji. It also includes a strong supporting cast with actors like Vincent Regan, Jeff Ward, David Dastmalchian, and Joe Manganiello.
The Netflix series One Piece is adapted from the best-selling manga series in Japanese history, created by Eiichiro Oda. The manga has over 100 published volumes and has sold more than 500 million copies around the world.
The popular manga and its anime have fans all over the world, spanning multiple generations. When the live-action series launched in 2023, it quickly became a global hit, appearing in the top 10 in numerous countries for eight weeks and reaching number one in over 75. The second season is expected to be even more successful.
One Piece season 1 and 2 are available to watch now on Netflix.
The latest issue of Living Legends, a vibrant, full-colour magazine dedicated to Harry Styles, is now available! You can find it at newsstands or purchase it online.
