The new One Piece anime air date comes just as it prepares to adapt the Egghead arc in the coming weeks, which has been ongoing since Volume 105 of the manga. The newly-formed pirate organization Cross Guild kicked off Volume 105 and similarly was the plot twist in the latest episode 1083. The Egghead arc continues in the latest One Piece Volume 107. Live-action star Mackenyu recently featured in a commercial celebrating the volume, along with the 25th anniversary of the One Piece anime first aired in October 1999.
Crunchyroll streams the One Piece anime, whose latter part is described as:
Wano Country is under the control of Kurozumi Orochi, Kaido of the Yonko, and his crew the Beasts Pirates. The Straw Hats form an alliance with the Heart Pirates, the Mink Tribe, and the Kozuki Family to liberate the Land of Wano, but when an old foe reappears their mission is made much more difficult.
Luffy, after facing defeat at the hands of Kaido, is locked in Udon Prison where a surprising member of the Worst Generation is also being kept! Meanwhile, Robin gets an opportunity to go undercover and spy on Wano’s Shogun Orochi as the rest of the Straw Hats and their allies begin working toward the coup they plan to stage on the night of the Fire Festival.
Luffy’s journey takes him and his group to the ruins of Oden Castle where Kin’emon tells them about the past and his plans to battle at Onigashima. The Straw Hats search for allies in Wano Country, but Kaido isn’t going to let them operate freely under his watchful gaze.
