When it comes to One Piece, it will be included in the Red Stage, on the 22nd of March 2025. It will be alongside shows like Demon Slayer, Kaiju No.8, Oshi No Ko, and My Hero Academia.
The event for One Piece is described on the Anime Japan website as “Arc/Special Stage before broadcast resumes”. And it goes on to further describe the part for One Piece as:
“Join us for the TV anime ONE PIECE: Egghead Arc Special Stage just before the broadcast resumes!
