As the One Piece slowly gets closer to its episode 1000, which will come out this November, Toei Animation has released a special commemorative visual for the huge milestone. This is only a part of the celebration as the franchise has already received several projects. And it has more stuff planned for the next few weeks. Check out the visual below:
The hype is only going up, and we previously got the awesome live-action series which had animated parts mixed in:
Besides those, the franchise had the space collaboration, the special One Piece one-shot drawn by the author of Nisekoi, Yamato reveal, the live-action movie announcement, Ryuma voiced manga, and more. In addition, we got the full version of awesome song used in the WE ARE ONE mini series. “TWILIGHT” by RADWIMPS is still a daily listen for me, and you can remember it below:
Finally, we got a special message from Oda-sensei himself after the manga’s volume 100 release. He joked about the manga taking so much space now, and promised to take us to the ending now that the story is in its final phase. The visual for episode 1000 teases the showdown with Kaido, and we are ready for it!
You can catch up to the latest One Piece manga chapter for free on either VIZ website or MANGA Plus, depending on your region. Meanwhile, the anime is streaming on Funimation and Crunchyroll, and episode 993 will release on September 26. its title is “Explosive?! The Handcuffs that Shackle Yamato’s Freedom!”
