Mackenyu Jokes About His Age During One Piece Live Action Panel

Mackenyu and Taz Skylar recently took the stage at Anime NYC 2026 to talk about their roles in the live action One Piece series. Fans love the chemistry between the two actors, which feels just as fun as the relationship between their characters Zoro and Sanji. They spent the time sharing behind the scenes stories, talking about their intense training schedules, and reflecting on their work for Netflix.

One of the most memorable moments happened when someone in the crowd asked Mackenyu about the show reaching the Wano arc. With a laugh, he joked that he would be ninety years old by the time the series gets to that part of the story. It was a lighthearted moment that got a huge reaction from the audience.

While the comment was just for laughs, it highlights how much content the show has left to cover. Fans are already excited for the upcoming seasons, and seeing the stars enjoy their roles this much makes the wait a little easier. We look forward to seeing how the rest of the crew continues their journey on screen.
