Netflix is already prepared for Season 3 of its live-action hit, One Piece, just after Season 2 dropped.
The streaming service announced that Season 3 has the official chapter title, One Piece: The Battle of Alabasta. One Piece anime fans know that the Alabasta arc is one of the most thrilling arcs of the series, with Luffy and his Straw Hat crew helping Princess Nefertari Vivi save her kingdom.
What we know so far about Season 3’s plot
Here’s the official synopsis of Season 3 from Netflix:
After agreeing to help Princess Vivi at the end of Season 2, Luffy and the Straw Hat crew face a brewing war in the desert kingdom of Alabasta, Vivi’s homeland.
In Season 3, a rebellion “threatens to tear the nation apart, fueled in secret by one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the ruthless Sir Crocodile, and his underground syndicate Baroque Works, who seek to conquer Alabasta for themselves,” the logline reads. “In a season defined by unbreakable bonds and impossible choices, the Straw Hats must face a brewing civil war and a powerful warlord to save Vivi’s kingdom before it crumbles into the sand.”
Formidable new enemies and brand-new worlds await in this upcoming installment, in which the stakes are the highest they’ve ever been.
“For many One Piece fans, Alabasta is the arc that hooked them as nakama for life, combining [One Piece manga creator Eiichiro Oda] Oda-san’s incredible talent for world-building and memorable characters in a story that’s thematically rich, emotionally gripping, and visually spectacular,” said Season 3 co-showrunners, writers, and executive producers Joe Tracz and Ian Stokes to Tudum. “Reaching this story has been a dream for our team since the live-action series began. We’re excited to be in production on Season 3 right now. We’ll see you in Alabasta, it’s going to be epic!”
Production is already underway in Cape Town, South Africa.
