One Piece Film Red is the 15th movie of the franchise, and it will premiere in Japan on August 6, 2022. The film had teased a new female character, Uta, when it was first announced, but no one knew who she was until now.
Before we discuss the jaw-dropping identity of Uta, why don’t you watch the trailer for yourself first?
As revealed in the video, Uta is actually Shanks’ daughter. At the very beginning of the teaser, he says to her, “though we’re apart, you’ll always be my daughter.”
Even after 1000+ published chapters of One Piece, Shanks remains to be a mysterious character. Now, suddenly it appears that he has a daughter? So, is Uta a protagonist or an antagonist?
The 46-second teaser packs a lot of tears, which makes me question how emotional the movie might turn out to be.
Eiichiro Oda is not only supervising the project but also serving as its executive producer, so there’s no doubt the movie will have the capacity to overwhelm us.

About One Piece
One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997.
The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger. The final words he said at the execution tower were “My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.” These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, in search of One Piece. Thus began a new age!
Seeking to be the greatest pirate in the world, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece. His diverse crew is joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright, this will be one memorable adventure.
