Summary

  • Captain Kuro survives his encounter with Luffy in season 1 of Netflix's live-action One Piece, but he likely won't return in season 2.
  • Kuro's survival is emphasized in the show, but his character doesn't play a big role in the story beyond his first appearance.
  • The live-action One Piece follows the important story beats of the manga and anime, so Kuro's absence in season 2 aligns with his limited presence in the original story.
