One Piece Luffy
All the new episodes of One Piece will air an hour earlier than normal in Japan, making it a little easier on those watching from overseas.
The official One Piece Twitter account has pointed out the change, confirming that it wasn’t just episode 1083 where the change applied to (thanks, CBR). They will now air at 6pm PT / 9pm ET, or 3am if you’re in Europe.
Moving forward, One Piece episodes will launch at a new time of 6 PM PT. Please look forward to tonight's episode!

Netflix’s live-action One Piece show, based on the wildly popular manga and anime, began airing in August, and has gone down very well with fans. In fact, it’s become one of the biggest shows of the year for the streaming service. Last weekend, Netflix put out a whole bunch of bloopers to celebrate.
One Piece has been running for 25 years, and is the best-selling manga of all time. It’s so popular in Japan that fans have been warning others that spoilers can be found anywhere - including billboards in local train stations. We’re such fans that we’ve included it in our list of the best anime to watch on Crunchyroll.
If you’ve not been following the evolution of One Piece, from manga, to anime, to live-action show and everything else, you can read 108 chapters of the manga for free via Shonen Jump.
