It's a big deal for a show that airs continuously and, although the gap is being filled with a remade version of an old arc, things are about to get a lot different around here!

However, that's been pushed back by a week, and is now due to start on 4th November.

If you're looking to get into One Piece for the first time, you may want to hop over to BBC iPlayer, which will be home to English-language dubs of the first 1,000 episodes.

One Piece episode 1,123 will be released in April 2025, following a six-month break.

In fact, BBC iPlayer is the only service in the UK carrying the English dubs of One Piece, with Crunchyroll and Netflix having the original Japanese versions of the latest episodes instead.

Of course, Netflix is also where you can find the live-action version of One Piece, which proved to be one of very few western anime adaptations to earn resounding approval from the existing fan base.

You can catch One Piece on Crunchyroll and Netflix. Sign up for Netflix from £4.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream.
