As the global enthusiasm for One Piece skyrockets, particularly following the success of the recent Netflix live-action adaptation, fans have recently encountered some disappointing news regarding content availability on the platform. Netflix has disclosed the upcoming departures from its library, revealing that several notable films from the One Piece franchise will soon be unavailable to stream.
While Netflix holds the title of the largest streaming service worldwide, boasting an extensive collection of content, its catalog does not encompass every aspect of the One Piece universe. Although the platform features numerous films from Toei Animation’s celebrated series, it notably lacks the entirety of Season 1 of the anime.
Upcoming Departures: Two One Piece Films
Recap Films That Resonate with Fans

The One Piece franchise has excelled at transforming key story arcs into captivating recap films, showcasing enhanced animation and refined character designs. Among these, “Episode of Chopper”stands out as a poignant retelling of the Drum Island Arc, capturing the heartbreaking backstory of one of Luffy’s most beloved crew members.
Another notable film, One Piece: Episode of Arabasta, expertly condenses the essential moments of the Arabasta Arc into a 90-minute format. This film is ideal for viewers seeking to familiarize themselves with the storyline without committing to the complete series, although it should be noted that some character appearances, like Ace, were excluded as they were added in filler episodes of the anime.

- Deuces (2016)
- Handsome Siblings (2020)

Significance of the Arabasta Saga
Timing of Departure Relative to Live-Action Adaptation





The impending removal of these films is particularly regrettable for fans eager to revisit the Alabasta Saga in anticipation of the forthcoming Season 2 of the live-action One Piece. The upcoming season is set to explore this saga, which comprises pivotal arcs, including Drum Island and Alabasta. Unfortunately, viewers looking to revisit these stories or experience the animated adaptations will lose access shortly. Nonetheless, the episodes encompassing the Arabasta Saga, spanning from Episode #61 to #130, remain accessible on Netflix, offering fans an opportunity to catch up before the live-action series debuts.
