One Piece Anime's Elbaph Arc English Dub Starts This Fall
The Straw Hat crew's adventure in the land of giants can now be watched with an English dub. The new season of the One Piece anime, Elbaph Arc (Elbaf), will be released with an English dub on Crunchyroll this fall. The announcement was made on the platform's official channels on July 23, 2026.
Crunchyroll will initially offer the dub to subscribers in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. While no date has been set for other regions, given that the platform has previously expanded One Piece dubs to wide territories, the list is expected to grow in the coming months. Prepared by Toei Animation, the English voice actors underwent an intense recording process over the past months to best reflect the performance of the original Japanese voice cast.
As a reminder, the manga moved to Elbaf starting from chapter 1120, where the crew faced the political turmoil and mysterious history of the giant empire. The anime officially entered Elbaph after completing the Egghead arc. This new arc stands out at a turning point where Eiichiro Oda's story approaches its final stretch, especially by bringing up old connections like Shanks and the Davy Back Fight. Moreover, the theory that Elbaf will host the biggest battles in the One Piece world has fans extremely excited.
The release of the English dub this fall is welcome news for a large audience that finds it difficult to follow with subtitles or prefers the dubbing experience. Crunchyroll has proven its speed in this area in recent years by quickly releasing dubbed versions of One Piece's Wano and Egghead arcs. Now attention turns to how frequently the dubbed episodes of the Elbaph arc will be released and licensing agreements with other platforms (such as Netflix). If everything goes as planned, in the last quarter of 2026, English-speaking One Piece fans will embark on a new adventure in the shadow of giants.
