Universal Studios Orlando is closing Lost Continent over in Islands of Adventure, and preparing for the addition of a "major themed area." Amidst rumors about Nintendo franchises being used and whatnot, I'm crossing my fingers that the park is getting a section dedicated to Netflix's One Piece.
The live-action adaptation of the acclaimed manga and anime series is pushing out Season 3, and it seems like Netflix is all-in with a second anime coming in 2027. As EW reports, the Mythos restaurant in 2027 and all the ancient mythology areas will close in phases. While that's sad, I think it's time for One Piece to take a permanent place in the Universal parks stateside.
