Fans were thrilled to learn that the anime will resume on April 4, 2025, providing them a clear timeline for its return.
New One Piece Movie Announcement
- A new movie in the One Piece franchise has been confirmed.
- Details regarding the Wit Studio remake and its release date have yet to be announced.

While fans were eager to glean more insights about the anticipated remake by Wit Studio, the Jump Festa did not deliver any new information. This leaves the possibility of a 2025 release for the remake looking bleak, particularly since the original anime series will be returning shortly thereafter. Ideally, the remake would be better suited for release when the anime is on hiatus.
For those wishing to catch up or stay updated, One Piece is available for streaming on Crunchyroll.
