The art covers Episode 1, which shares its title with the manga&#8217;s legendary opening chapter: &#8220;Romance Dawn.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Formatted like a wanted poster, the image shows a grinning Monkey D. Luffy triumphantly setting sail for the very first time. It&#8217;s both a nod to the wanted-poster culture woven throughout the <em>One Piece<\/em> world and a clean visual statement of intent: this remake honours the spirit of the original, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/daily-briefs\/2026-06-23\/the-one-piece-anime-remake-unveils-1st-episode-artwork\/.238843\">as covered by Anime News Network<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/the-one-piece-wit-studio-artwork.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"THE ONE PIECE WIT Studio official production artwork featuring characters from the East Blue Saga\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of Netflix \/ WIT Studio<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>What Is THE ONE PIECE, and Why Does It Matter?<\/h2>\n<p><em>THE ONE PIECE<\/em> is not a sequel or a spin-off \u2014 it is a complete retelling of Eiichiro Oda&#8217;s iconic manga, starting from Chapter 1, produced by WIT Studio. If that name rings a bell, it should: WIT Studio delivered <em>Attack on Titan<\/em> Seasons 1 through 3 and co-produced <em>Spy x Family<\/em>. Now the studio is bringing that same level of craft to the East Blue Saga.<\/p>\n<p>Season 1 adapts the first 50 chapters of the manga, taking Luffy from his childhood in Foosha Village all the way to his encounter with the sharp-tongued sous-chef Sanji at the floating restaurant Baratie. That&#8217;s seven episodes \u2014 all dropping simultaneously on Netflix \u2014 with a combined runtime of around 300 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>For Singapore fans who have followed the original Toei Animation series for years or decades, this is a chance to revisit one of fiction&#8217;s most beloved opening arcs with production values that match a contemporary streaming blockbuster. Netflix is available here, so no workarounds needed when the series launches in February 2027.<\/p>\n<h2>The Creative Team<\/h2>\n<p>Masashi Koizuka directs, with Taku Kishimoto on series composition. Character design and chief animation director duties are shared by Kyoji Asano and Takatoshi Honda \u2014 and the team has been open about how seriously they approached capturing Oda&#8217;s unmistakable style.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We repeatedly traced Oda-sensei&#8217;s art,&#8221; Asano <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbr.com\/netflix-the-one-piece-anime-remake-new-first-look-2027-release\/\">told CBR<\/a>. &#8220;After two full months of thoroughly studying his style, we finally achieved a level of quality that even the director was very satisfied with.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The production is a collaboration between WIT Studio, Shueisha, Fuji Television Network, and Toei Animation \u2014 a consortium that suggests Oda has had a close hand in overseeing the adaptation, as he has with other <em>One Piece<\/em> projects.<\/p>\n<h2>Last words<\/h2>\n<p>Singapore&#8217;s <em>One Piece<\/em> fandom is one of the most passionate in the region, and a WIT Studio remake that has spent months tracing Oda-sensei&#8217;s linework is a genuinely exciting prospect. February 2027 is still several months away, but the Annecy first-episode artwork is a clear signal that this ship is on course \u2014 and when it sails, it looks set to be unmissable.
