The ONE PIECE Netflix live-action series is now days away before releasing on Netflix, and the Japanese dub version of the trailer has been released along with a new letter from Eiichiro Oda. The original voice actors for the Straw Hat Pirates can be heard in the trailer, including Mayumi Tanaka (Luffy), Kazuya Nakai (Zoro), Hiroaki Hirata (Sanji), Akemi Okamura (Nami) and Kappei Yamaguchi (Usopp). A notable difference is Arlong, who seems to be voiced by Hiroki Tochi (Estarossa in The Seven Deadly Sins), while he was voiced by Jurota Kosugi in the anime.

- Hiroshi Naka as Garp
