Since the start of the Egghead Island arc inOne Piece, the only regret that some fans have had is the fact that they skipped the Skypiea arc. Initially deemed slow and boring, fans are now annoyed by the importance that the arc has gained since the beginning of the final saga. Many old references from the arc have yet to resurface during the Egghead narrative, and those who skipped them have no clue.
Some even decided to watch it again just to keep in touch with the mysteries that were being unfolded. From Mother Flame to Gear 5, Eiichiro Oda foreshadowed quite a few important elements in Skypiea, and now fans have understood the significance of the arc, which is why they have demanded the arc hold a specific position in the upcoming seasons ofOne Piecelive-action.
According to a recent update, theOne Piecelive-action series has been filming two consecutive seasons back to back, which means that the Skypiea arc is going to be a part of season 3. Therefore, fans who initially ignored the arc are now worried about whether the series will be able to do justice to the mysteries foreshadowed in Skypiea.
One PieceLive-Action’s Biggest Update
According to aOne Piecefan account on X(Formerly Twitter),@OPLANEWSrevealed that Brashaad Mayweather, the actor who plays the role of Patty inOne Piecelive-action, has given a major update about the filming of the upcoming seasons of the series. The actor has claimed thatOne Pieceis filming season 2 and season 3 back-to-back.

Mayweather stated:
“We’ll see if they flashback to it because they’re filming two seasons – season two and three – back to back starting soon. So we’ll see what happens.”
While Netflix has only announced the second season as of yet, the revelation by the actor has hinted that along with the Alabasta saga, the creators will begin the shooting of the Sky Island saga as well. The Sky Island saga might be the most difficult phase to be included inOne Piecelive-action as it portrays an island that is based in the sky.
One PieceFans Are Worried About Skypiea
As soon as the news aboutOne Piecefilming two seasons back-to-back hit the internet, fans gathered together to express their joint concern about the portrayal of the Skypiea arc in the series. As mentioned before, Skypiea may feel bored initially, but the arc holds special importance during the final saga.
TheSkypiea arc was the first to hintat Sun God Nika, Luffy’s Gear 5, Mother Flame, and a lot of other important elements from the story.

This is why fans are hoping that the live-action adaptation will also include these hints and do justice to the narrative.

You can’t skip Skypiea.

Just because some people who watch the anime do for some reason doesn’t mean the people working on the IP can. Skypeia is way too important to the overall storyline.

One Piecelive-action filming two seasons in a row is evidently a piece of good news for fans as they might not have to wait for long for the third season and if the reception for both seasons is good, Netflix would have no problem in renewing the series further.
