One Piece: Heroines is a special episode prepared for the anime's 25th anniversary. Aired in Japan on August 31, 2025, this special production centers on the series' strong female characters. Featuring fan favorites such as Nami, Nico Robin, and Boa Hancock, the episode stands out with both action and character-driven storytelling.

Crunchyroll's move is significant for English dub followers. In particular, the release of the Elbaph Arc in dubbed form will allow viewers who don't want to wait for subtitles to access the current story more quickly. The dub of One Piece: Heroines will also accelerate the special episode's reach to a global audience.

One Piece continues to break records on both the manga and anime fronts as one of the longest-running productions in the shonen genre. It has not yet been clarified whether the English dubbed episodes of the Elbaph Arc will be released weekly or in a batch on Crunchyroll. However, announcements from the platform in the coming weeks will clarify the schedule for fans.
