Matt Owens, showrunner and writer for the live-action One Piece, confirms that a beloved locale will return in season two.
There is one particular location that was briefly featured in One Piece live-action's first season that many fretted might not be featured in the future of the series. With the creative minds responsible for the adaptation often needing to make decisions as to what will make the cut from the shonen's source material, certain elements might not have made the cut for season one.
Loguetown has some major significance to Monkey D. Luffy and the Grand Line, specifically as it acted as the place where Gol D. Roger met his end. When Roger died at the hands of the military, he was able to use his last words to confirm the existence of the One Piece and in doing so, set a number of pirates out on the quest of a lifetime.
Loguetown Will Appear in One Piece's Live-Action SeriesIn the recent question and answer session, Owens confirmed that the second season will not skip Loguetown, as Luffy and his comrades on the Going Merry will visit the town where Gol D. Roger met his end,"Skipped? Never! It wasn't included in season 1 because our episode number got reduced. And to try to cram it in would not have done service to it or the story it had to share space with.
When the Straw Hats hit Loguetown in the original manga and anime adaptation, they had a number of surprises that awaited them. Alongside running into Buggy and Avolda, who were now working together to fight against Luffy and his crew, they were also introduced to the powerful militaryman known as Smoker. Smoker was featured in the post-credit scene of One Piece's first season so expect him to play a big role in season two.
Do you think One Piece's second season will immediately begin with Loguetown? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of the Grand Line.
