It was near the end of 2023 when Netflix announced that it was teaming with the renowned WIT Studio (Spy x Family, Attack on Titan Season 1-3) for a new anime adaptation of storyteller Eiichiro Oda's beloved classic manga One Piece. The news broke during the second day of Jump Festa 2024, with The One Piece beginning its on-screen adventures with the iconic East Blue Saga. In collaboration with The One Piece production committee (consisting of representatives from Shueisha, Fuji Television Network, and Toei Animation Co.), the Netflix-exclusive anime has been offering some impressive looks at how it's all coming together. But today, we learned when Monkey D. Luffy and the crew would be setting sail. A new key art poster released on Tuesday announced that The One Piece will release all seven episodes in February 2027. The first season will cover approximately the first 50 chapters of the original manga, with a total runtime of around 300 minutes, leading up to Luffy's encounter with Sanji, the sous chef of the floating restaurant Baratie.
