The concept art for the One Piece anime remake has been revealed. The highly anticipated remake was first announced in December 2023 and aims to reimagine the original series, starting with the East Blue saga.
At the recent One Piece Day 2024 event, new details were revealed, including key concept art and the main staff involved. Check out the video below for the staff interview.
Masashi Koizuka, who directed parts of Attack on Titan, will direct the remake, while Hideaki Abe serves as the assistant director. The series composition will be handled by Taku Kishimoto, known for Haikyuu!! and Erased. Character designs will be overseen by Kyoji Asano and Takatoshi Honda, both with significant experience in major anime projects.
This project is part of the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the One Piece anime and aims to reintroduce the series to both new audiences and long-time fans.
