The wait for the “Devil Child” is officially over. With the global release of ONE PIECE Season 2 on March 10, 2026, Netflix has introduced Lera Abova as the enigmatic Nico Robin (appearing first as Miss All Sunday).
Despite a brief introduction in the initial episodes, the actress has already solidified her place as a breakout star. For more on 2026’s biggest premieres, check out our recent report on Victoria Pedretti and Camila Morrone.
Lera Abova Nico Robin Casting Highlights
Fans are praising the casting for its “manga-perfect” accuracy. Portraying the Vice President of Baroque Works, the star captures the quiet intelligence and razor-sharp composure that defines this character.
In the new episodes, she operates alongside Joe Manganiello’s Crocodile (Mr. 0). Her introduction sets the stage for the Alabasta conflict, where her forbidden knowledge of Poneglyphs becomes the ultimate prize.

Visualizing the Flower-Flower Fruit Powers
One of the biggest technical triumphs of the new season is the live-action adaptation of the Hana Hana no Mi (Flower-Flower Fruit) abilities. The visual effects for the Lera Abova Nico Robin debut successfully translate her power to “sprout” limbs from surfaces into a surreal, elegant combat style.
What’s Next for the Series in Season 3?
While Season 2 focuses on the journey through Drum Island, the finale has already teased a much larger role for the cast in Season 3. This follows the high-engagement trend we saw with our Florence Pugh and Zendaya coverage, as fans gravitate toward strong, mysterious female leads.
Pop-RNB Verdict
Lera Abova is the breakout star of the season. Her casting proves that Netflix is prioritizing atmospheric accuracy over big-name cameos.
