The English dub of One Piece is heading into the long-awaited Elbaph arc, with new episodes set to arrive weekly on Crunchyroll from October.
Toei Animation and Crunchyroll have announced that the English, Spanish and Portuguese dub of One Piece Heroines will begin streaming on 13 October 2026 at 9 am Pacific Time (PT). This will be followed by the English dub premiere of the One Piece Elbaph arc on 20 October 2026 at 9 am PT, beginning with episode 1156.
Unlike previous English dub releases of One Piece, which were released in multi-episode batches, the Elbaph arc will follow a weekly release schedule. Episode 1157 will arrive one week after the premiere, with new episodes continuing every Tuesdays at 9 am PT.
Fans can also get an early look at the straw hat crew’s next adventure through a newly released English-dubbed clip from the Elbaph arc.
The story picks up after the crew’s daring escape from future island egghead. The straw hat crew sets course for a legendary destination and, alongside the Giant Warrior Pirates, finally reaches Elbaph, the long-awaited land of the giants. The arc will introduce new encounters with giants and reunions as the crew begins another major chapter in its journey towards the ultimate treasure, the One Piece.
Alongside the Elbaph arc, One Piece Heroines will also expand the franchise’s English-language offering on Crunchyroll. The special follows Nami after she fails to stop thieves because of her ill-fitting shoes. Seeking a refund, she enters the shop where she bought them, only to receive an unusual offer from the head designer: a new pair of shoes made from scratch in exchange for walking in the designer’s upcoming fashion show.
The release will be available on Crunchyroll across the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Southeast Asia and Latin America.
The upcoming English dub release gives One Piece fans another way to experience the straw hat crew’s highly anticipated journey into the land of the giants, while the weekly schedule will keep the audience sailing into a new episode of the Elbaph arc each week.
