One Piece Reaches New Levels with Remake

One Piece and Animation Remake

One Piece is a fairly veteran series. This anime produced by Toei Animation first began in 1999 and has been releasing new episodes almost every week since then.

However, there is a huge problem with this Toei adaptation and they are holding One Piece back from being an amazing adaptation like the one seen in MHA Season 8. Toei's One Piece has only recently seen improvements in animation quality, but many problems still persist. One Piece's pacing is terrible, and things like its sound design are painfully outdated.. One Piece can only truly shine once WIT Studio's remake is released.. This remake will improve the series and put it in a modern way.

Eiichiro Oda's dress appears in this week's Weekly Shonen Jump issue. The official release date for One Piece Chapter 1166 is November 23, 2025. In Japan, One Piece releases on Monday at 12am JST, i.e. 11am EST or 8am PT. Fans can read the chapters for free on the Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
