When will One Piece Season 3 premiere?
Production has officially wrapped on the third installment. New episodes will arrive in 2027.

What happened at the end of Season 2?
At the end of Season 2, the Straw Hats help the good folks of Drum Island defeat the Wapol Pirates, not only freeing their enslaved physicians but also getting their hope back with the help of the late Dr. Hiriluk (Mark Harelik) and his “cherry blossoms.”
They also got a brand-new ship’s doctor: Tony Tony Chopper (voiced by Mikaela Hoover), a blue-nosed, foul-mouthed reindeer who ate a Devil Fruit and can now morph his body into many different variations.
The Straw Hats then promise Princess Vivi (Charithra Chandran) to help her defeat the remaining Baroque Works.
It was also revealed that the leader of the Baroque Works, Mr. 0, is none other than Sir Crocodile (Joe Manganiello), who will be the primary villain of the upcoming “Alabasta Saga” storyline as he orchestrates a takeover of the desert kingdom of Alabasta. We also learn that Miss All Sunday (Lera Abova) is Nico Robin, a fugitive and renowned archaeologist.
There are also a few wild implications. For example, Dr. Kureha, a.k.a. Doctorine (Katey Sagal), suggests that Gol D. Roger (Michael Dorman) has a deeper connection to Monkey D. Luffy. There were also cameos for Monkey D. Dragon (Rigo Sanchez) and Sabo, hyping up their upcoming story arcs.
What is One Piece Season 3 about?
