Netflix’s live-action One Piece has taken the streaming world by storm, winning over fans and overcoming the so-called “curse” of Hollywood anime adaptations. The series was commended by critics for achieving the proper mix between honoring the source material and taking the creative freedoms required for a new format.
Unfortunately, the first season of the ever-growing series only features 8 episodes and after completing those episodes, fans are left with the big question, ‘What Now?’. Well, some talks are going on about the second season being in the works, and till then, here are 7 thrilling Shows, that every One Piece Live-Action will love.
1. Shadow And Bone
Shadow and Bone is a Netflix fantasy streaming television series created by Eric Heisserer. It is based on two Leigh Bardugo series set in the Grishaverse, the Shadow and Bone trilogy, and the Six of Crows duology. The series tells the narrative of young Alina Starkov, an orphan and cartographer in the Ravka nation’s First Army, who realizes she is a Grisha, a being with exceptional abilities who has been waiting for a long time to solve a severe need in the universe. While the pirate theme isn’t as strong in Shadow and Bone because the story is mostly centered on fantasy and wizard-like skills, the world-building is vast.
Shadow And Bone is available for Streaming on Netflix.
2. Black Sails
Black Sails is a television series set on New Providence Island that was written as a precursor to Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1883 novel Treasure Island. Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine devised the series. It takes place in a world of swashbuckling pirates and naval combat, similar to One Piece. The major setting is the Bahamas’ New Providence Island, which acts as a lawless pirate refuge. Just like the live-action, Black Sails follows the Government vs. Pirates analogy and shares a lot of other similarities too.

3. Our Flag Means Death
Our Flag Means Death is a David Jenkins-created American period romantic comedy television series.
