The results of the "One Piece World Top 100 2nd" poll are in, confirming that the core Straw Hat trio remains the franchise's most popular force. Announced during the One Piece Day '26 event, the worldwide ranking saw Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, and Sanji sweep the top three positions. The remaining Straw Hat crew members maintained a strong presence in the top 30, with Nami leading the group at fourth place, followed by Nico Robin at sixth and Tony Tony Chopper at 13th.
While Luffy largely maintained his dominance across Japan, Asia, and North America, the global data revealed fascinating regional variations. Nami proved particularly popular in Oceania, Europe, and the Middle East, where she surged ahead to claim the top spot. Meanwhile, Roronoa Zoro captured the hearts of fans in Africa and Central and South America, securing first place in those regions. Oceania stands out as the only region where Luffy did not break into the top three.
The massive undertaking, which allowed fans to vote for their favorites among 1,567 characters from March 4 through June 11, serves as a significant pulse check for the long-running series. The final top 10 list also highlights the enduring appeal of heavy hitters beyond the crew, including Trafalgar Law at fifth place, Portgas D. Ace at seventh, and Shanks at eighth. A commemorative video released alongside the results highlights iconic manga moments for these top-ranking characters, underscoring the deep connection fans maintain with Eiichiro Oda’s sprawling epic.
