One Piece has smashed another Guinness World Record, with hundreds of fans using Luffy’s iconic straw hat to do so.
On May 4, 2025, One Piece fans broke a Guinness World Record at Osaka Comic Con. This year, One Piece Netflix stars Mackenyu Maeda (Zoro), Emily Rudd (Nami), and Jacob Gibson (Usopp) attended the event. Fans got to interact with the trio and discuss the Netflix adaptation, which will return when Season 2 releases.
However, the occasion was made even more special as fans had the chance to break a Guinness World Record for the most people wearing straw hats in the same place.
One Piece sets new Guinness World Record
To achieve this Guinness World Record, every fan present needed to wear Luffy’s iconic straw hat for a total of one minute, or it wouldn’t be counted.
As reported by SoraNews24, a whopping 897 people took part in the challenge, smashing the previous record of 797 and gaining that Record.
As shown in the post above, Mackenyu Maeda, Emily Rudd, and Jacob Gibson took to the stage holding the official certificate to commemorate the achievement.
Interestingly, while the most amount of straw hats is impressive, it’s not the only Guinness World Record that One Piece holds.
Back in 2021, a man from Hong Kong set a record for owning the most amount of One Piece merchandise, with his collection consisting of an impressive 20,125 pieces. On top of this, another more recent record was set by One Piece itself back in 2024, after the show broke a milestone for the most DVDs ever released by a serial anime TV program, reaching 300 DVDs.
While you wait for One Piece season 2, which is yet to break any Guinness World Records, be sure to check out everything we know about the upcoming Netflix series.
