The anime of ONE PIECE has been working non-stop for several years on the adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's manga of the same name, thanks to a work plan that takes care to maximize the number of chapters that separate the paper front from the television front.

With over 100 volumes of ONE PIECE published and over 1000 episodes produced and distributed by TOEI animationthe saga of Oda Sensei is among the longest running shueisha and Weekly Shonen Leap. In addition, the television series is one of the most viewed animes of all time in Japan and will soon be enriched with a new mini-saga created by the Hoc as sponsor and promoter of ONE PIECE: RED.

The narrative arc in question is titled "The promise of a new era! Luffy and Uta!' and will only contain a handful of episodes, set in Episode 1029 and 1030. The titles of the episodes concerned follow:

  • Episode 1029, August 14: "Shanks' Daughter"
  • Episode 1030, August 21: "The new Testament! Luffy and Uta!"
  • Episode 1031, August 28: 'The Legend of the Red Hair'

So just a few episodes that will deepen the bond between the protagonist and the daughter Shanks the red. And you instead, what are your expectations for this little arc? Let us know with a comment below.
