A short video is intended to celebrate Monkey D. Luffy’s birthday, but fans believe they are seeing information about the second season of the Netflix series.
A short video on TikTok shows Monkey D. Luffy actor Iñaki Godoy celebrating his character’s birthday on May 5th. To celebrate the day, he presents a cake that looks like a huge white candle. The “wick” in the candle is the number 3.
By the way, the anime also received a new intro along with the Egghead Arc in January:

What could the video mean? What at first glance simply looks like a heartfelt video that is simply intended to celebrate the pirate captain’s birthday, but now has fans speculating about the second season of the Netflix series.
The focus of speculation is the cake with the number 3 from the video. Fans believe that this has something to do with a storyline from the manga, and especially with a specific character. “Mister 3 is coming woaaah,” writes a user in his comment under the video. Other fans also want to have recognized the reference to the character.
Mister 3 is an enemy from the manga and anime who has his hair styled in a 3 shape. Since he has eaten the wax fruit, he can not only create infinite amounts of wax, but also turn living people into wax figures. This could be another reference to the wax-like cake.
“If Mister 3 shows up in the next live-action episodes, that probably means we’ll also see Chopper, Bon Kurei, Robin and Crocodile,” another user noted.
What does this mean for the second season? For the next season of the Netflix series, this would mean that the story would focus on Alabasta next. During this storyline, the Straw Hat Gang must face off against the members of the Baroque Company. These are all named after numbers. And that includes Mister 3.
This organization was already mentioned in the first season and Zoro has even killed one of the members – Mister 7. Together with Godoy’s final words: “They will lose their minds”, there is a lot in this video that suggests that the second season will go to Alabasta.
