In the One Piece universe, Nico Robin is a character steeped in mystery and burdened by a tragic past. Feared by the World Government and branded a "devil child," Robin possesses the power of the Hana Hana no Mi, which allows her to sprout copies of her body parts on any surface. This power, coupled with her deep understanding of ancient history and the secrets of the world, makes her a formidable and captivating character.
Meanwhile, Miss All Sunday is the alias of Nico Robin when she is acting as an agent for Baroque Works, a shadowy organization operating in the shadows of the Grand Line. The second season will delve into the machinations of Baroque Works, with Abova stepping into the role of this formidable figure and bringing her own interpretation of the character, and is sure to bring intrigue and danger to the second season.
