In an announcement on Tuesday, Netflix revealed that the live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's iconic manga "One Piece" has climbed to the top of the global English-language TV rankings. In the first week from August 28 to September 3, the series reached an impressive 18.5 million viewers and 140.1 million viewing hours, with an average runtime of 7 hours and 34 minutes per viewer.
The live-action version made it into the Top 10 lists in 93 countries and secured the number one spot in 84 of them. This broke the record previously held by Season 1 of the Addams Family spinoff Wednesday and Season 4 of the hugely popular Stranger Things, both of which topped the charts in 83 countries during their respective opening weekends.
The series also received a positive consensus score of 83% based on 40 critic reviews and an audience score of 96% based on over 10,000 ratings on the review platform Rotten Tomatoes.
Its performance in the coming weeks will likely determine whether a potential second season gets the green light.
