First serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997, Eiichiro Oda’s manga “ONE PIECE”, which has become a global phenomenon, has surpassed 600 million copies in circulation worldwide as of March 2026.
The newly revealed concept art captures a moment in Windmill Village, where the story’s protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy, spent his childhood. The scene shows Luffy enjoying a lively time at the village bar, PARTYS BAR, alongside the visiting Red-Hair Pirates captain Shanks and first mate Benn Beckman, and the bar’s owner, Makino.
Rendered with a warm and gentle touch, the visual shows Shanks smiling at Luffy’s boundless energy, while Makino’s expression and the cozy atmosphere of the bar hint at the unexpected kindness of the Red-Hair Pirates, despite their fearsome reputation. It is a snapshot of a precious moment in Windmill Village — the place where Luffy’s great adventure begins.
Season 1 will cover approximately the first 50 chapters of the original manga, spanning seven episodes all at once with a total runtime of around 300 minutes, leading up to Luffy’s encounter with Sanji, the sous chef of the floating restaurant Baratie.
Stay tuned for more updates as THE ONE PIECE prepares to set sail, only on Netflix.
