In early December, Netflix premiered the second and third parts of the One Piece anime’s Whole Cake Island arc, featuring Latin American Spanish dubbing. This latest release concluded with fans reaching episode 822 of the series.
When Will Episodes 823 to 832 of the Whole Cake Island Arc Be Available on Netflix?
According to several social media accounts that track Netflix’s server updates, episodes 823 to 832 of the One Piece anime, which comprise the fourth and fifth parts of the Whole Cake Island arc, are slated for release starting Friday, May 1, 2026.
Should Netflix maintain its schedule of releasing two batches of episodes monthly, the sixth and seventh parts of the Whole Cake Island arc could potentially arrive in February 2026. These would represent the final two segments of this arc, totaling 28 episodes and concluding at chapter 877. This consistent release pattern would ideally pave the way for the premiere of the Wano Country arc in 2026, which is the most extensive arc in One Piece with a total of 196 episodes.
What is the Release Date for the First Episode of the Elbaf Arc in the One Piece Anime?
During Jump Festa 2026, an announcement confirmed that the One Piece anime will resume on Sunday, April 5, 2026, under a revised production structure. This new format will consist of two consecutive cours (blocks of episodes) per year, meaning the anime will deliver a total of only 26 episodes annually, similar to series like Gachiakuta or Sakamoto Days. Ryuta Koike, a producer for Toei Animation, explained that this decision is intended to “support the advancement and evolution of the anime series.” The reduction in episode count is designed to allow the production team to adapt one chapter of the One Piece manga for each anime episode, enhancing animation quality and pacing.
