Netflix shared an emotional One Piece live-action Season 2 poster revealing one of the series’ favourite characters. The streaming giant introduced the breathtaking shot on social media, where the huge whale Laboon has the Going Merry set sail close to its huge head.

The new poster depicts Laboon, a giant whale who has waited for its crew at the gate of the Grand Line for decades.

It sparks nostalgia and excitement for fans of the series and curiosity for new viewers.
This new poster is another addition to the series of promotional material that the streamer has shared for fans of the series.

What is Laboon’s Story?
Laboon is a whale who has waited at Reverse Mountain for more than 50 years. The whale was abandoned by a pirate crew named the Rumbar Pirates, who vowed to come back after their voyage through the Grand Line. Laboon’s head scars are a result of pounding the Red Line repeatedly out of frustration and sadness. This story is one of the saddest in One Piece, depicting loyalty, camaraderie, and hope.
Story of One Piece: Into The Grand Line
Season 2 starts with the Straw Hat Pirates entering the Grand Line via Reverse Mountain, where they meet Laboon and hear his heartbreaking story. Season 2 continues with the crew’s meeting of Crocus, the lighthouse-keeper who is responsible for Laboon, and they also make a promise that has something to do with the whale’s history. After this heart-wrenching meeting, the Straw Hats will move on from island to island and have a new set of challenges in the perilous Grand Line.
