Production

Release

On October 13, 2024, it was announced that the series' Egghead story arc would enter on a six-month hiatus and is set to resume in April 2025, having a new timeslot on Fuji TV. The One Piece Fan Letter special took the time slot on October 20, which will be followed by a 21-episode special edited version of the Fishman Island story arc, titled One Piece Log: Fish-Man Island Saga. This version will feature reshot scenes, retouched art, detailing, color shading, lighting, and special effects to previously animated scenes, and a Dolby Atmos soundtrack. [4] Originally scheduled to premiere on October 27, 2024, the premiere date was moved to November 3, due to Fuji TV's coverage of the 2024 World Series. [5]

English localization and broadcasting

On June 8, 2004, 4Kids Entertainment acquired the license for distribution of One Piece in North America; [6] 4Kids contracted Viz Media to handle home video distribution. 4Kids' in-house musicians wrote a new background score and theme song nicknamed "Pirate Rap". 4Kids' dub mandated edits for content and length, which reduced the first 143 episodes into 104. [7] Initially, 4Kids originally created an English version of the first opening theme, "We Are!" by Russell Velazquez. [8] It premiered in the United States on September 18, 2004 on the Fox network as part of the weekend programming block FoxBox TV, and later aired on Cartoon Network on their Saturday night action programming block, Toonami in April 2005. It also aired in other blocks and line-ups, such as its Monday-Thursday night prime-time line-up and its Miguzi weekday after-school action block in 2006. Production was halted in 2006 after episode 143/104; [9] [10] Viz also ceased its home video release of the series after volume 11. On July 22, 2010, an interview with Anime News Network and Mark Kirk, senior vice-president of digital media for 4Kids Entertainment, revealed that 4Kids acquired One Piece as part of a package deal with other anime, and that the company did not screen the series before licensing it. However, once 4Kids realized One Piece was not appropriate for their intended demographic, the company decided to edit it into a more child-oriented series until they had an opportunity to legally drop the license. Kirk said the experience of producing One Piece "ruined the company's reputation". Since then, 4Kids established a stricter set of guidelines, checks, and balances to determine which anime the company acquires. [11]

On April 13, 2007, Funimation (later Crunchyroll, LLC) licensed the series and started production on an English-language release of One Piece [12] which also included redubbing the episodes previously dubbed by 4Kids. In an interview with voice actor Christopher Sabat, he stated that Funimation had been interested in acquiring One Piece from the very beginning, and produced a "test episode," in which Sabat portrayed the character of Helmeppo and Eric Vale played the part of the main character, Monkey D. Luffy. (They would later go on to provide the English voices for Roronoa Zoro and Sanji, respectively.) [13] After resuming production of the renewed English dub, which featured less censorship because of fewer restrictions on cable programming, Funimation released its first uncut, bilingual DVD box set containing 13 episodes on May 27, 2008, [14] similarly sized sets followed with fourteen sets released. [15] The Funimation-dubbed episodes premiered on Cartoon Network on September 29, 2007 and aired until its removal on March 22, 2008. [16] On October 28, 2011, Funimation posted a press release on their official website confirming the acquisition of episodes 206–263, and the aspect ratio, beginning with episode 207, would be changed to the 16:9 widescreen format. [17] On May 18, 2013, the uncut series began airing on Adult Swim's revived Toonami late-night programming block skipping ahead to episode 207 onward. [18] [19] One Piece was removed from the Toonami block after March 18, 2017. [20] The series returned to Toonami, skipping ahead to episode 517, on January 22, 2022. [21]

In May 2009, Funimation, Toei Animation, Shueisha, and Fuji TV announced they would simulcast stream the series within an hour of the weekly Japanese broadcast at no charge. [22] Originally scheduled to begin on May 30, 2009, with episode 403, a lack of security resulted in a leak of the episode, and Funimation delayed the offer until episode 415 on August 29, 2009. [23] [24] [25]

On February 12, 2013, it was announced that Manga Entertainment would start releasing the Funimation dub of One Piece in the United Kingdom in a DVD box set format. [26] Crunchyroll began simulcasting the series on November 2, 2013, for the United States, Canada, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Latin America. [27] Crunchyroll later expanded access to the United Kingdom and Ireland, as well as a majority of European territories, on February 22, 2020. [28] In April 2020, Netflix officially announced that they would be streaming One Piece starting on June 12 of the same year, for the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, using the "Special Edition" print. [29] Netflix announced that they would stream the Egghead story arc starting on January 13, 2024. [30]

Films

A total of 15 animated theatrical films based on the One Piece series have been released in Japan. The films are typically released in March in accordance with the spring vacation of Japanese schools. [31] The films feature self-contained, completely original plots, or retellings of story arcs with animation of a higher quality than what the weekly anime allows. The first three films were typically double features paired up with other anime films, and were thus usually an hour or less in length. Funimation has licensed the eighth, tenth, twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth films for release in North America, and these films have received in-house dubs by the company. [32]

Music

Music soundtracks have been released that are based on songs that premiered in the series. Kohei Tanaka and Shiro Hamaguchi composed the score for One Piece. [36] Various theme songs and character songs were released.

The anime television series consists of 43 pieces of theme music: 24 opening themes and 19 ending themes. As of episode 279, ending themes were omitted and, starting from episode 326 onwards, opening themes were extended from 110 seconds long to 150 seconds long. In episodes 1–206 of Crunchyroll's English-language release of the series, the opening and ending themes were dubbed into English by various voice actors, before reverting to the Japanese versions from episodes 207 onwards and some openings were not licensed by Funimation's release at the time, which is also affected by all territories. Starting with episode 1071, the ending theme has been reinstated after 17 years.

On August 11, 2019, it was announced that Sakuramen, a musical group will be collaborating with Kohei Tanaka to compose music for the anime's 20th season. [37]

Reception

Ratings

The anime has been very well received. The first episode of the anime adaptation earned a viewer rating of 12.4%, behind Pokémon and ahead of Ojamajo Doremi . [39] In Japan, One Piece has consistently been among the top five animated shows in television viewer ratings, as of 2020. [40] [41] [42]

On international online video platforms, the One Piece anime got 1.9 million demand expressions per month in 2016, making it the year's most popular anime and fourteenth most popular TV show in the world, according to Business Insider. [43] [44] In the United States, where it is available on the Hulu streaming platform, One Piece was 2018's most binge-watched television show in the states of Illinois and Wisconsin. [45]

In 2022, One Piece was the most watched TV show of the year in the world, beating Stranger Things [46] and Monkey D. Luffy was ranked as top three world's most popular character according to TV Time, a popular tracking service. [47]

Critical reception

In a review of the second DVD release of 4Kids Entertainment's dub, Todd Douglass, Jr. of DVD Talk called its adaptation a "shabby treatment" resulting in an "arguably less enjoyable rendition". Douglass said that the 4Kids original opening was "a crappy rap song" and that the removal of whole scenes leaves a "feeling that something is missing". He later went on to say that "Fans of the 'real' One Piece will want to skip picking [...] up [4Kids Entertainment's One Piece DVDs] until an uncut release is announced", and also stated that "kids may get into this version because it's what they have seen on TV". [48] Margaret Veira of activeAnime praised the TV series' "great" animation, stating that "It gives life and stays true to the style and characters of the manga."
