The wave of One Piece has reached new heights this year because of the successful live-action adaptation, the conclusion of the Wano arc in both anime and manga and finally entering its final saga with the beginning of the Egghead Island arc.
Eiichiro Oda’s masterpiece has been running for the better part of 20 years and now as the series enters the climax, fans can’t wait to watch their favorite protagonist Monkey D. Luffy become the King of the Pirates, thus ending the tale of One Piece. However, this may not be the end of the franchise.
As the series has just started with the live-action adaptation and is awaiting the release of the second season, the anime adaptation remake of “ONE PIECE TV Anime” is officially being developed by WIT Studio and Netflix under the title “THE ONE PIECE.” This news was announced during the Jump Festa 2024 along with a teaser.

WIT Studio’s President Talks About Taking on One Piece
In a tweet which was shared by the official account of One Piece, WIT Studio’s president Takeshi Wataka talked about the challenge of taking on such a giant franchise and making a remake. He said:
“After thinking through many concerns before taking on this new adventure, I decided to discuss it with everyone and take a stand. ONE PIECE is an anime with over 1000 episodes created by everyone at Toei Animation. I am humbled by the weight of our history and the prospect of charting a new trajectory.”
This is truly a new beginning for One Piece and would bring a new challenge for WIT Studios, as they are looking for help from other creators and their participation to make the series as good or even better than the original.
