Netflix is set to remake the One Piece anime series, Variety reported.

Following the massive success for the One Piece live-action version, the streaming platform is working with the manga's creator Eiichiro Oda, its publisher Shueisha as well as Fuji Television Network and Toei Animation Co. for a new anime series based on Oda's manga series.

One Piece: The Anime Remake

The anime remake is separate from the existing series by Toei Animation. The One Piece anime was released in October 1999 and is currently on its 21st season.

Netflix's remake, The One Piece, will follow the same story as the one in Oda's manga. It will start at the same timeline as both the exiting anime as well as Netflix's live action series. Luffy and the gang in the anima remake will begin with the East Blue storyline.

The One Piece is being produced at WIT Studio, the same production company as Spy x Family and season one to three of Attack on Titan.
