Ahead of its series debut this Friday, the first One Piece clip from Netflix’s forthcoming live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s hit manga series has surfaced online, featuring Taz Skylar as Sanji.
The video shows Sanji cooking an off-the-menu dish, which something that Baratie owner Chef Zeff disapproves of. It also provides fans a preview of the complicated mentor-mentee relationship between the fan-favorite cooks. The live-action remake will be available for streaming on August 31.
