Could One Piece season 2 deliver some of the manga's most memorable and 
bizarre baddies?

FULL STORY
======================================================================

The first teaser for One Piece season 2 has landed, and it pretty much 
confirms the story the season is going to tell and which characters are going 
to appear in it. 

The tease was a video uploaded to TikTok , in whichIaki Godoycelebrated 
Monkey D. Luffy'sbirthday with a cake that looks like a big ol' candle. That 
cake had a candle on top, which was shaped like the number three  and that is 
almost certainly a very big hint about which story arc we're going to see 
this time around. 

Where Netflix 's One Piece season one went with the East Blue story from the 
manga, the teaser suggests that we're going to follow the Arabasta story arc. 
That focused on the Baroque Works criminal syndicate, which features an array 
of villains named after numbers and holidays  including a certain Mr 3, who  
as IGN notes  can create and control candle wax. Netflix's teaser all but 
confirms the fans' speculation 

 One Piece fans were already pretty sure that the next season would follow 
the Arabasta story arc, not least because there was a reference to it early 
in the first season. A red-haired Baroque Works character called Mr 7 
featured in one of the opening scenes of season one, and was promptly killed 
off by Zoro. 

That raises the tantalizing possibility that we're going to see a whole bunch 
of the Baroque Works baddies this time around. And there are lots of them, 
with the male agents given numbers and the female ones given holidays so in 
addition to mastermind Mr 0, there are agents Mr 1, Mr 2, Mr 3, Mr 4 and Mr 5 
plus Miss All Sunday, Miss Doublefinger, Miss Goldenweek, Miss Merry 
Christmas and Miss Valentine, among others. 

With each character having their own odd abilities, there's scope for a lot 
of fun here. And there could be more: fans are hoping that Tony Tony Chopper, 
a shape-shifting reindeer absent from the first season, could also make an 
appearance. 

Other details are still under wraps, but we're expecting the second season to 
begin filming this summer for a streaming release in 2025  it's a long wait 
for the return of one of the best Netflix shows of the last couple of years, 
but it'll be worth it, we hope. You might also like Everything new on Netflix
