There is already a lot of anticipation for the second season of One Piece live-action, titled Into the Grand Line. The beloved rubber boy Monkey D. Luffy will be making a break for the Grand Line with his crew while making new friends and facing new foes. Following the success of the first season, the makers and Netflix are trying their best to double down on the hype for the show through various events.

The goal is to get people talking as much about the show as possible, causing the curiosity around the story to skyrocket. 

Adhereing to the spirit, Jacob Romero, who plays the character of Usopp, revealed that fans should brace themselves for some Easter eggs.

While talking to Deadline at the event, Jacob Romero was asked about the set pieces the fans should watch out for. In reply, he said that there are some important Easter eggs in the Drum Island arc. While he did not reveal or give any hint as to what they are, he advised fans to be watchful when the crew arrives on Drum Island.

He also mentioned that some "big animals" could not make the cut because of the special effects budget crunch. But he did praise their detailed work, the efforts that the art department has made to elevate the aesthetic value of each frame. 

The Drum Island arc is where the team will recruit their next crewmate, Dr. Tony Tony Chopper. This storyline will explore the past life trauma of the character and navigate how Luffy convinces him to become his ship’s doctor.

Going back to the event, Romero was not the only one to tease new information about the upcoming season.

The same event saw Once Piece’s Sanji (Taz Skylar) giving Deadline an important update about the most-loved and very entertaining Zoro-Sanji rivalry. He said that there will be some moments in the upcoming season where the sparks of their rivalry will flare up. Although the first season touched upon this friendly fire, it will be further fleshed out in the second season.      

He also mentions the mutual admiration and respect between him and Mackenyu, who plays Zoro, the flashes of which fans can expect to see in the show. Anyhow, the Zoro-Sanji rivalry is a recurring theme of the anime, one loved so passionately that its discussions have earned their own label on the internet.

These events have helped boost the popularity of the show, which was already phenomenal after the success of the first season. It will further reach astronomical heights when the One Piece crew makes their debut on Jimmy Fallon’s talk show. The show is slated for a March 10 release on Netflix and will also premiere in select few theaters across the USA, Canada, and Japan simultaneously.
