Netflix has released a new teaser for the second season of its hit live-action series One Piece, with a hint for the fan-beloved character of Tony Tony Chopper, Comicbook.com reports. In a new X (formerly Twitter) post embedded below, fans can see a first look at Chopper but his face is hidden. The reindeer can be seen reading the script for the second season on a table, but he is too short to lean over the table and read it correctly.

According to Comicbook.com, the character of Chopper is brought to life with CGI, so it seems like the live-action crew at Netflix put in a lot of effort to create a live-action version of Chopper that is as close as possible to the animated version in the original anime. So, fans are eager to see the face of Chopper and find out about many other cast announcements, such as who will be portraying Ace’s character.
Furthermore, according to Comicbook.com, Netflix has shared a few more announcements during this edition of Netflix’s Geeked Week. One of them is that Lera Abova (Anna, Pitch Perfect: Bumper In Berlin) will be portraying the fan-beloved character of Miss All Sunday, better known by the Straw Hat Crew as Nico Robin. She will be alongside the famous villain Crocodile, now confirmed to be portrayed by Joe Manganiello (True Blood, How I Met Your Mother).
If anyone is interested in knowing more information about One Piece, Comicbook.com shares the official synopsis for the first season, available to read below:
“Based on Japan’s highest-selling manga series in history by Eiichiro Oda (One Piece Film: Red, One Piece Film: Z), One Piece is a legendary high-seas adventure unlike any other. Monkey D. Luffy is a young adventurer who has longed for a life of freedom since he can remember. Luffy sets off from his small village on a perilous journey to find the legendary fabled treasure, One Piece, to become King of the Pirates! But in order to find the ultimate prize, Luffy will need to assemble the crew he’s always wanted before finding a ship to sail, searching every inch of the vast blue seas, outpacing the Marines, and outwitting dangerous rivals at every turn.”
