The official Netflix Series logo of beloved manga One Piece.

After a long wait for fans, it appears a live-action version of the beloved manga series One Piece is actually in the works at Netflix.

On Friday, Netflix’s “Geeked” Twitter account posted a photo of the script of episode one. It’s called “Romance Dawn,” written by Matt Owens and showrunner Steven Maeda.

One Piece is a manga (Japanese comic) that follows the adventures of a boy with the superpower of a rubberband body, named Monkey D. Luffy, and his band of pirates in their quest for the world’s most powerful object known as One Piece. It’s written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda, and has spawned an animated TV show and many other media properties.

Netflix first announced that it would adapt the series in January 2020. However, there’s been little released confirming that it was truly, actually happening.



We still don’t know much, but Netflix also posted the show’s official logo, which they hint is filled with easter eggs.

Maeda also posted about the show after “a long wait.” The show’s slogan is apparently “No matter how hard or how impossible it is, never lose sight of your goal.” How appropriate!
