The anime 'One Piece' is shifting from a weekly release format to seasonal releases, with new episodes set to premiere on Crunchyroll in Spring 2026 as part of the Elbaph arc.
'One Piece' is a long-standing and immensely popular anime series that has endeared itself to fans worldwide since its debut in 1999. In a significant change to its release strategy, the series will no longer adopt a weekly episode format; instead, it will transition to seasonal releases, thereby altering how fans consume new content. This shift reflects broader trends in anime consumption and distribution, particularly in response to international streaming platforms like Netflix.
