Witnessing Monkey D. Luffy’s Journey:
The inaugural season of One Piece Live Action charted the journey of Monkey D. Luffy as he set out to make new friends. Battling several obstacles, Luffy was able to overcome adversity, thanks to the support of his friends. Season two will expand the horizon, introducing audiences to the Grandline and the adventurous Straw Hat Pirates.
Introducing Tony Tony Chopper:
An exciting addition to the upcoming season is the character Tony Tony Chopper. His entry into the live adaptation was hinted at by Eiichiro Oda, the original creator of One Piece, during the renewal announcement video. Oda, expressing gratitude for the fans’ love for the live-action series, drew a sketch of Chopper, thereby setting the stage for the character’s debut on Netflix.
Christina Convery-The Dream Chopper Candidate:
With Chopper’s inclusion confirmed, fans are now eagerly speculating about the actor who will bring the character to life. The popular choice seems to be Christian Convery, the child actor famed for his role in Netflix’s Sweet Tooth. Fans believe that Convery, having played a half-human, half-deer character in Sweet Tooth, is ideally suited to play Chopper, a reindeer-turned-human due to consuming Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Human Devil Fruit.
The Potential Casting for Chopper:
Although Convery’s casting is purely speculative at this stage, the similarities between Sweet Tooth’s character and Chopper are undoubted. Being fourteen years old, Convery also matches Chopper’s height, further fueling the speculation. Additionally, his prior experience with Netflix and the similar character attributes make him a strong contender for the role.
Upcoming Storyline:
The second season of One Piece Live Action will kick-off at the East Blue Saga’s Loguetown arc, following which, the narrative will shift to the Grandline. The Drum Island, the Grandline’s third island, will present Chopper for the first time. By the storyline’s end, Chopper will join the Straw Hat Pirates as the ship’s doctor.
Despite the strong case for Convery as the ideal Chopper, Netflix could opt for CGI portrayal of Chopper. Until there is further confirmation, fans can only guess and speculate. As it stands, one thing is clear, the anticipation for One Piece Live Action Season 2 is heating up, and the inclusion of Tony Tony Chopper is set to make it an unforgettable adventure.
