From a bush outside of Netflix HQ, I can now confirm that Netflix has renewed One Piece, the live-action adaptation of the popular anime, for seasons three through 100. Netflix Co-CEO, Ted Sarandos, confirmed the renewal at a press conference last week.
“We want to do right by the anime, so we’re covering everything; the good arcs, the bad arcs, and the Fishman Island arc,” Sarandos said, before ripping his suit away to reveal a red vest and jean shorts, an intern ran in a straw hat to help finish the outfit. “I know we’ve been gun shy with committing to series long term, sorry to the Arcane heads out there, but we’re excited to set sail with Luffy and the gang on the Grand Line.”
The One Piece anime has been airing since 1999 and features over 1,000 episodes. Fans and critics are skeptical that Sarandos and Netflix can keep this going, but the Co-CEO of the streaming giant is confident in the adaptation’s future.
“Writers? We don’t need no stinking writers. The arcs are written; we just got to Frankenstein them into eight-episode seasons that come out every two years. AI can do that for us,” Sarandos said before welcoming the show’s cast onto the stage, “The actors are another story. We’ve learned a lot from our time on Stranger Things. It turns out, young actors age. That is a problem, but we finally have a solution. We’ve bought the cloning rights to the entire cast. Every clone is signed through the show’s entire run.”
The press conference was brought to a screeching halt when a naked Greg Peters ran on stage. The Co-CEO looked exhausted and had his hands zip tied together, but that didn’t stop him from disparaging the renewal news.
“What are we doing,” Peters shouted as he dodged security guards throughout the room. “We’re fucking Netflix. We should be making cool new shit. Not regurgitating tired anime series or chasing social media clout with a side-character from the Addams Family. I will not stand for this Ted. I am the Co-CEO. ‘Co’ means we have to share. I’m telling the board on you.”
At press time Peters was dragged out of the room kicking and screaming while Sarandos pointed and laughed at his Co-CEO.
