• Oda has also enjoyed the live-action series

Recently, Eiichiro Oda sat down for an interview, where the One Piece writer revealed his best moments from the second season of the live-action show. Oda said he loved the scene where Luffy sings to Laboon. He said it was a change he enjoyed. Oda also seemed proud of the final scene involving Chopper. Last but not the least, Oda praised Charithra Chandran for her performance as Vivi in ​​the new season.

It's clear that Oda enjoys One Piece Live Action, and he has no problem with the adaptation. As fans may already know, Oda is heavily involved in the casting and other production-related decisions of One Piece Live Action. So he has a say in many things.

One Piece Anime will return in April 2026

Live-action is constantly in the news, but most One Piece fans are eagerly awaiting the return of the anime, which has been on hiatus for months now. In 2025, it was confirmed that the One Piece anime would no longer be weekly. Instead, it would be seasonal.

The One Piece anime will only release 26 episodes per year, and they will be split into two courses. The decision to make the anime seasonal has been praised by most, as it will allow the staff at Toei Animation to rest properly. Ever since the Egghead arc began, the quality of the anime has been incredible.

The staff has ensured that all episodes are top rated. Such quality naturally requires a lot of effort, which is not possible if the staff is overworked.

When the anime finally returns in April 2026, it will adapt the Elbaf arc. Each episode will adapt at least one chapter. Hopefully there will be new sound effects, as the previous ones are quite outdated. Whether or not Toei Animation will make the change is currently unknown.
