The Story: Usopp’s (Very Unreliable) Retelling
The two-part animated special follows Usopp regaling Chopper with tales of the crew’s East Blue adventures, set just before Chopper joins them in Drum Island. Naturally, Usopp casts himself as the undisputed hero — single-handedly defeating Arlong and Alvida, and even claiming credit for the idea to hunt for the One Piece in the first place. It’s a hilarious, non-canon way to recap Season 1 while giving the cast room to be genuinely funny.
Who’s Voicing Who
Jeff Ward returns as Buggy the Clown, joined by newcomers Katey Sagal as Dr. Kureha and Callum Kerr as Captain Smoker. Charithra Chandran pulls double duty voicing both Miss Wednesday and her true identity, Nefertari Vivi.
