In the past, it was announced that the first 130 episodes of One Piece would be removed from Netflix, causing concern for fans of the series. These episodes covered the East Blue Arc and the end of the Alabasta Arc, containing significant parts of the overall story.
The removal of these episodes meant limited access to One Piece on Netflix, a major offering of anime content on the platform. This news surprised and disappointed many fans who were either currently watching the series or planning to do so in the future.
The Big Question: Why Netflix Removed One Piece Anime?
It is not confirmed why Netflix removed One Piece from the platform. As per the rumors, Netflix removed the series’s first 130 episodes to encourage the new viewer to start with the live-action series and then transition to the anime.
However, it was not possible for the series to cover the full story without these 130 episodes. Fans could also blame the streaming rights as the reason for the removal of the series from the platform.
Since anime is highly popular among anime audiences, various platforms were fighting for the rights of the series, which could have been a possible reason for the removal of One Piece on Netflix.
