The 2024 Writers Guild Awards unveiled its winners this Sunday, showcasing Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga “One Piece” as the victor in the “Children’s Episodic, Long Form and Specials” category. Esteemed writers Matt Owens, known for his work on “Luke Cage” and “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”, alongside Steven Maeda, clinched the award for their exceptional contribution to the series’ “Romance Dawn” episode.

Debuting exclusively on Netflix on August 31, the adaptation’s inaugural season, featuring eight episodes instead of the initially reported ten, garnered significant acclaim. Notably, the series ascended to the top spot on Netflix’s global English-language television rankings for three consecutive weeks, highlighting its widespread popularity among audiences.
