Uta, the world-famous singer that is key to this work, is voiced by Nazuka Kaori and Ado (when singing), which became a big topic. Furthermore, the songs in the film are popular such as the theme song "Shin Genesis" by Nakata Yasutaka and others by Mrs. Green Apple, Vaundy, Fake Type, Sawano Hiroyuki, Orisaka Yuta, and Hata Motohiro. The film has already earned 19 billion yen after 157 days from the release. Some project to conclude "ONE PIECE FILM RED" is in progress for January 29, 2023, the last day of a movie. The "46th Japan Academy Award" will be held on March 10, 2023, at the Grand Prince Hotel Shin Takanawa in Tokyo, where the "Special Award" will be given to the music team of "ONE PIECE FILM RED".
