YouTubers Hikakin & Seikin, who are musicians and brothers, have previous experience with One Piece because they performed “We Are” for the ONE PIECE MUUUSIC COVER ALBUM. Now, five years later, they’re back in Luffy’s world, as they’re performing the “We Go!” opening theme song for episodes coming out this month.
They won’t be alone, though. Luffy’s VA will sing with them.
The brothers put two versions of the song out online. They’ve never done an anime opening theme song before, so this must be pretty exciting for them.
“We Are” First Version
“We Go! ～HIKAKIN＆SEIKIN with Monkey D. Luffy ver.～”
The “One Piece Log: Fish-Man Island Saga” is currently playing in an abridged, 21-episode format.
The Egghead arc will return in April 2025. It had initially begun in January 2024.
One Piece continues to get bigger around the world. The most successful manga series ever has a very successful live-action adaptation on Netflix (and considering that most American anime live-action adaptations tend not to do well, this is a big deal). On top of that, WIT Studio is making a whole new One Piece series, also for Netflix.
VIZ Media publishes the original One Piece manga by Eiichiro Oda, and gave this description for the first volume of the lengthy series:
As a child, Monkey D. Luffy was inspired to become a pirate by listening to the tales of the buccaneer “Red-Haired” Shanks. But his life changed when Luffy accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit and gained the power to stretch like rubber…at the cost of never being able to swim again! Years later, still vowing to become the king of the pirates, Luffy sets out on his adventure…one guy alone in a rowboat, in search of the legendary “One Piece,” said to be the greatest treasure in the world…
The current One Piece anime debuted in 1999.
