From October 20, 2024 to March 30, 2025, there will be a "recharging period," during which the production team is preparing to further improve the quality of the anime. During this period, the "SPECIAL EDITED VERSION 'ONE PIECE' Fishman Island Arc" is currently airing.

"ONE PIECE" depicts the adventures of Luffy, a young man with a straw hat whose limbs can stretch like rubber, as he and his companions set out on an adventure across the open seas in an attempt to become the King of the Pirates. The series began serialization in 1997 in "Weekly Shonen Jump" (Shueisha).
Starting from April 6th, Fuji TV will be broadcasting a completely new original anime "TO BE HERO X" by Aniplex and China's largest video site "bilibili" every Sunday at 9:30 a.m. as the successor to "ONE PIECE". The 9:30 a.m. Sunday time slot will be a time slot where Fuji TV and Aniplex will team up to produce new anime works, and "TO BE HERO X" will be the first to be broadcast.
