One Piece Confirms New 2025 Timeslot When Anime Returns From Hiatus

by

As a dedicated One Piece fan with over two decades of sailing through its thrilling seas, I must admit that the upcoming hiatus has left me feeling like a fish out of water! However, I am eagerly anticipating the grand return of the Straw Hats in April 2025. The news about the new time slot is intriguing, but as they say on Water 7, “the sea is vast and full of secrets.

In simple terms, the popular anime “One Piece” is set to resume its run next year after a hiatus, with a new time slot confirmed for its return. This announcement follows news from earlier this fall that “One Piece” would be taking a brief break for the first time in over two decades of weekly episodes in Japan. The break is intended to give the creative team more time to prepare for the latter half of the Egghead Arc and beyond, leaving fans excitedly awaiting its comeback.

In the initial announcement about its break, “One Piece” mentioned that when it returns with new episodes around April 2025, it would also have a new broadcast time. This information has now been solidified, as a fresh anime titled “To Be Hero X” has announced its debut in Japan on Sundays starting next April. Notably, this new series will occupy the previous broadcasting spot of “One Piece”, implying that “One Piece” will air at an unspecified new time as of now.

When Is One Piece: Egghead Arc Coming Back?

The popular anime series “One Piece” announced earlier this October that it will be taking a break and return with new episodes in April 2025. The specific time slot for the “Egghead Arc” has not yet been disclosed, but it’s expected to have some changes when it returns. In contrast, “To Be Hero X” is set to air in its original spot when it premieres in April as part of the Spring 2025 anime schedule. So, it remains to be seen whether “One Piece” will continue airing on Sundays or switch to a different day altogether.

As a devoted fan, I’m eagerly anticipating the ripple effects these changes will have on the global streaming releases of “One Piece,” especially considering they’re set to unfold next Spring. The team behind this epic series has hinted at unveiling more details about their revised schedule during Jump Festa 2025, a highly anticipated event where we’ll also learn who will be stepping into Kazuki Yao’s shoes as the new voice of Franky in the Japanese dubbed version – marking the first shift in the main voice cast in over two decades.

How to Wait for One Piece’s New Episodes

You may find yourself waiting quite some time for fresh “One Piece” episodes, but fear not! During this hiatus, you have plenty of options to keep up with the series. Not only can you stream numerous older episodes on platforms like Netflix and Crunchyroll, but the anime is also in the process of reimagining the Fish-Man Island arc entirely. Titled “One Piece Log: Fish-Man Island Saga“, this condensed version spans 21 episodes, complete with new opening and closing sequences.

The upcoming remake will continue airing its episodes until “One Piece” resumes, which means there are fresh anime releases on the horizon for you to watch. Additionally, you can explore Eiichiro Oda’s original “One Piece” manga chapters as new ones are published in Japan. At present, the latest three chapters are available for free reading through Viz Media’s digital Shonen Jump library or Shueisha’s MangaPlus service.
