We are weeks away from Netflix’s One Piece, a live-action adaptation of the iconic anime series.
As Netflix has kept most of the story close to the chest, we now have our first real idea at what the epic saga will include as the One Piece episode titles and synopses have dropped, and it paints a pretty vivid picture of what to expect in the upcoming series. Check out the titles and episode synopses below…
