During the opening day of ONE PIECE DAY '26, Shueisha and franchise representatives revealed the standings for positions 31 through 100 in the second global character popularity poll, "WT100". Celebrating the manga surpassing 600 million copies in circulation worldwide, the global voting initiative allowed fans across the globe to cast votes for over 1,500 characters via physical ballots and online portals.
The mid-tier results showcase a fascinating spread of fan favorites, recurring legends, and iconic ships. Fan-favorites like Charlotte Katakuri (31st), Bartholomew Kuma (32nd), and Edward Newgate (36th) landed just outside the top 30, while even non-human icons made strong showings, with the Going Merry securing 45th place and the Thousand Sunny taking 90th.
