The first look at live-action Tony Tony Chopper in One piece Season 2 has been revealed, and it shows what the Straw Hat Doctor will look like in his primary form. Netflix’s Geeked Week featured several major reveals about the upcoming season 2, including the announcement that Joe Manganiello and Lera Abova have joined the cast of One piece Like Mr. 0 and Miss All Sunday, respectively. While the confirmations of the casting of Crocodile and Robin were highly anticipated, so was the first look at Chopper.
One piece Season 2 is currently filming in South Africa, and a release date has not yet been revealed. Eiichiro Oda previously confirmed that season 2 will cover from Logetown to Drum Island, with Arabasta likely saved for a potential season 3. The Drum Island arc is where audiences are introduced to Chopper In the anime, suggesting that he will make his live action debut in the latter half of the second season.

Arguably The most anticipated aspect of One piece Season 2 was how Chopper would look in a live-action. Chopper is not a very easy character to translate from the pages of the manga to the screen as he is a reindeer who gains human traits and abilities after eating a devil fruit. It was unclear how One piece Season 2 was going to feature Chopper, but it has now been confirmed that he will be created through visual effects. Puppets and other movie-making tricks may be used, but Chopper is all but confirmed as a CG character.
Although these One piece The season 2 table read released by Netflix doesn’t show Chopper too much, it offers a great look at the character. Chopper is shown from behind, with the visual effects used to make him blend perfectly with the rest of the footage as if the fan-favorite doctor is actually there at the table reading. Chopper’s face, ears, and iconic pink hat all have furWhich reminds me of how Pikachu and other Pokemon are portrayed in Detective Pikachu. We don’t get to hear Chopper, with the casting yet to be revealed.
Tony Tony Chopper is known for transforming his appearance in one piece
This won’t be Chopper’s only form in one piece live action
Not only is Chopper’s primary form already complicated to pull off in live-combat, but his Devil Fruit powers allow him to transform his appearance. This ability is given to Chopper by the Hito Hito No Mior human-human fruit. Chopper uses a human-reindeer hybrid form most of the time, but he can transform into a somewhat fully human version of himself. Chopper’s human form is stronger and more physically imposing than his basic form, and it often appears during battles or in times of need.
Chopper can also adjust other parts of his body depending on what the situation calls for, with his Devil Fruit powers enhanced by the Rumble Ball allowing him to transform his limbs and even fur. One of the most fascinating things about Chopper is how the cute-looking reindeer with human features and a fun personality can turn into a Hulk-like creature ready to take on anyone midway through a battle. I’m interested to see how Chopper will look in motion in hybrid and human form One piece Season 2, but the first look is incredibly exciting.
