One Piece star can’t wait for one villain in the Netflix show

Netflix’s One Piece star Inaki Godoy revealed the name of a popular villain from the franchise whom he wants to see debuting in the series.

One Piece has been dominating the entire anime industry for decades, and seeing its stardom, it would be safe to assume that it will continue to do the same this year. Not only the anime and manga but fans also loved the way every element from the One Piece universe was brought to life in the Netflix live-action.

When the trailer of the non-animated version was first released by Netflix, fans were scared to get their hopes up. That’s because several live actions like Cowboy Bebop and Death Note failed miserably, and due to that, no one was ready to face the disappointment again.

However, this time the curse was broken as One Piece live-action became a blockbuster hit and got renewed for a second season within a few days of its release on the streaming platform.

One Piece’s live-action Luffy reveals his favorite villain

During the Middle East Film & Comic Con 2024 panel in Abu Dhabi, the on-screen Sanji( Taz Skyler) and Luffy(Inaki Godoy) were asked about their favorite villains from the One Piece universe. Taz reveals that he has a personal connection with the character Buggy so he is, of course, his favorite among everyone else. On the other hand, Inaki names many of them, including Buggy, Foxy, and Bon Clay.

He also enacts each one of them, making everyone present at the event laugh their hearts out. However, after a few moments, he says that he loves Blackbeard the most, and the way he laughs is the thing that never gets out of his head. He is definitely waiting for his debut in the forthcoming seasons.

One Piece Season 1 introduced us to the main protagonist and some mighty villains from the franchise. As it adapted the East Blue Saga Arc, fans can expect to see the subsequent arcs to be covered in the renewed season. However, Blackbeard’s entry in the live-action will not be anytime soon as the antagonist debuted in the manga in chapter 223, which will, unfortunately, be adapted into an anime after a long time.
