The Grand Line is a dangerous place with formidable enemies, and the live-action series One Piece places great emphasis on the first enemies the Straw Hats will face in the first teaser for Season 2, which you can watch below:

The teaser introduces a noticeably grittier tone, centered on the mysterious criminal syndicate known as Baroque Works. Described as an “organization of assassins,” this group poses a threat unlike anything Luffy and his crew have faced before. In a chilling moment from the trailer, Robin warns Luffy, “You might think you’re unstoppable. But your friends aren’t made of rubber,” signaling that the stakes for Nami, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp are higher than ever.

A Star-Studded Villain Roster

The footage gives us our first look at the agents of Baroque Works, bringing key antagonists from the manga to life. The impressive new cast lineup includes David Dastmalchian as the sinister Mr. 3, Lera Abova as the enigmatic Miss All-Sunday (Nico Robin), and Camrus Johnson as the explosive Mr. 5. Fans also caught glimpses of Charithra Chandran as Miss Wednesday and Jazzara Jaslyn as Miss Valentine, fleshing out the syndicate’s ranks.

One of the most notable aspects is how there are major changes in the introduction of some of these characters, with Nico Robin appearing before the Straw Hats much earlier than she did in the manga and anime. The change comes as no surprise considering everything we saw during Season 1.

Subtitled “Into the Grand Line,” this season will cover fan-favorite arcs including Loguetown, Little Garden, and Drum Island. The production value appears to have scaled up to match the epic nature of these locations, promising a visual treat for long-time enthusiasts. With a third season already in production, Netflix is clearly confident in the Straw Hats’ continued voyage.
