Toei Animation has officially announced a six-month hiatus for the popular One Piece anime starting October 13, 2024. The hiatus will be filled with remastered reruns of the Fish-Man Island Saga, featuring enhanced animation and audio in Dolby Atmos. This re-released series will run weekly, beginning October 27, leading up to a new episode in April 2025. In addition, a special 25th anniversary episode titled One Piece Fan Letter will premiere on October 20, portraying the Straw Hats from a different perspective. Fans can look forward to a fresh viewing experience of a beloved saga while awaiting the return of new episodes.

When will One Piece return with new episodes?

One Piece, created by Eiichiro Oda, is one of the longest-running and most popular anime series globally, known for its thrilling adventures and diverse characters. The anime first debuted in 1999 and has only grown in popularity, with over a thousand episodes and numerous movies alongside its successful manga counterpart. This hiatus allows the creators to ensure the quality of future episodes while giving fans an opportunity to enjoy updated content from earlier arcs.
