With the anime returning from a break, fans are hyped to see Kizaru vs Luffy, and rumors suggest that it will be movie quality.
Luffy Vs Kizaru Fight To Have Amazing Animation
The Fight Rumored to Be Spread Over 2 Episodes
One Piece is finally coming back after a very long break. The anime first went on a break 6 months ago, and now, it has returned with a bang. To be specific, the anime marked its return on April 5, 2025. Not only that, the anime also received two episodes back to back immediately upon its return, so not only did fans get an episode on the 5th of April, but also on the 6th of April, which was definitely incredible to see. While the start to Egghead Part 2 wasn’t all that exciting, fans know that there’s a lot more to look forward to.
Fans who are familiar with the manga know what’s coming when it comes to the second half of Egghead. A major battle that will take place will be between Admiral Kizaru and Luffy. The fight was incredible in the manga, but it might be on a whole other level when it gets animated. Gear 5 Luffy fights have yet to disappoint as they all feature incredible animation. After 6 months of break, fans can expect nothing less than incredible quality from what’s to come in Luffy versus Kizaru.
Fans can get an idea of the animation to come by watching the small trailer for the return of the Egghead Island arc:

This new One Piece character could be the protagonist of One Piece’s sequel, if it ever gets one.
With that in mind, Luffy’s fight against Kizaru will likely start in about 3 episodes after the first returning episode drops, so in other words, it could be episodes 1126 and 1127 that cover it. So, in short, the Kizaru fight will probably start airing in about two weeks. Fans should definitely keep their expectations high as this might just be the best fight in the anime.
