One Piece to Unveil Not Just One, but Two Surprises This Summer: Report

by

Since the start of the Final Saga, One Piece has been treating fans to some fantastic episodes. The Egghead Incident Arc, in particular, is a delightful surprise as it delves deeper into the enigmatic scientist Vegapunk and the ex-Warlord Bartholomew Kuma. After episode 1136 concluded Kuma’s backstory, the anime took a break for a week. The real battle in Egghead is set to commence in episode 1137, airing on July 27th, 2025. Additionally, it’s been hinted by a well-known One Piece account, @pewpiece, that the anime will introduce new opening and ending themes on August 10th, 2025. The closing theme, called “PUNKS,” will be sung by Chameleon Lime Whoopiepie, a Japanese musical group as announced through Crunchyroll.

Excitedly, I must share some intriguing tidbits about the latest developments in “One Piece.” Though it’s not an official channel, the source is trusted for its swift updates on all things related to the series. As we speak, there’s no known info on the opening theme song, but keep your eyes peeled!

The current opening and ending themes have a strong focus on Bonney and Kuma, which aligns perfectly with their significant roles in the ongoing arc. The studio has even crafted new eyecatches for the flashback sequences, demonstrating their commitment to detail. With the flashback now behind us, it’s time to gear up for the main crew’s upcoming adventures and the battles that await!

What Is Happening in One Piece’s Anime?

In response to the World Government’s efforts to exploit Vegapunk for knowledge about the Void Century, Luffy and his team choose to safeguard him against evil forces. The gravity of this situation prompted the Five Elders to dispatch Admiral Kizaru, but he was unable to complete the task after finding himself trapped by Luffy. Subsequently, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn intervenes, using a mysterious, demonic portal to reach the island. As soon as Bonney lays eyes on Saturn, half-spider and half-cow in form, reminiscent of a legendary Yokai, she is reminded of her father’s ordeals and immediately charges at him.

Sanji makes an effort to rescue her, however, it’s unsuccessful. Regrettably, Saturn turns out to be more powerful than she thought, leaving her on the brink of death. As she finds herself cornered with no means of escape, she reflects fondly on the moments she shared with her father and the tales of Nika he used to narrate. Moreover, the anime delves into Kuma’s background, detailing his origin, his transformation into a Pacifista, and the loss of his humanity.

In this particular anime, the fierce battle against the villains momentarily pauses to delve into Kuma’s emotional past, a narrative thread that began in Episode 1129 and unfolded over several weeks, culminating in Episode 1136. This dramatic flashback left fans with complex feelings and intensified their disdain for the World Government. Originally appearing as a minor adversary in the Thriller Bark Arc, Kuma was later reintroduced in the Sabaody Archipelago Arc. A significant twist occurred during the Fish-Man Island Arc when it was revealed that he had been supporting Luffy all along. With Kuma’s backstory now concluded, we can finally find out what becomes of Bonney, who is currently under Saturn’s control.
