One Piece Gear 5 anime episode schedule, release date, budget and eps numbers list

One Piece’s plot changed due to Luffy’s Gear 5. When fans discovered that the aspirant Pirate King’s devil fruit had a secret power all along in March 2022, it was a big scoop. This information was widely discussed on social media and in tabloid publications.

In the series, a devil fruit never abruptly changes its kind, but the protagonist always finds a method to make the impossible feasible. The strongest Yonko, Beast King Kaido, was easily defeated by Luffy.

Fans are nonetheless thrilled to see the anime adaptation of their favourite protagonists making history, even though the transformation took place a while ago.ย

Gear 5 will formally make its anime adaptation debut with Episode 1071. The first look at this change will be presented in Episode 1070, but it’s crucial to note that only the lower part of Luffy’s face will be visible, emphasising his wide grin.ย 

He also begins to exude steam from his mouth and is engulfed in an unknown liquid.ย 

On average, each episode of One Piece costs about $80,000 to $100,000 (which is about 10 million Yen to 13.5 million Yen) to animate and this figure makes it one of the most expensive anime of all time.

However, the cost of animation depends on the level the studios want to strive for, for example, with intense fight scenes like in Episode 1061, the budget might even stretch to the regions of $120,000 and more.

One Piece Gear 5: A Succinct Rundown Of The Decisive Combat

Gear 5 will probably be featured in the anime for a few weeks before the Wano Country Saga’s ultimate fight is resolved, given how the anime is presently adapting the manga. In Episode 1071, the combat between Gear 5 Luffy and Kaido will begin, where Yonko apologises to the young pirate on behalf of the CP0 agent who unexpectedly attacked him.ย 

After a brief prologue in which Gorosei reveals the full potential of Luffy’s devil fruit, which they view as possessing “the world’s most ridiculous ability,” the actual fight starts. The “revival” of Luffy raises the spirits of his supporters and the residents of Wano.

With the unexpected surge in power, Luffy is having fun using the Yonko like a toy and appears insane. Luffy takes his sweet fun with him rather than dealing with Kaido right away. He assumes a huge form even using Kaido’s dragon shape as a jumping rope.ย 

On the other hand, Luffy becomes perplexed when Kaido starts to doubt his identity. Fans are aware of Kaido’s fixation with Joy Boy, so it appears he may be aware of what’s happening but won’t say anything about it. The series will also briefly account for Kaido’s transition from infamous pirate to Yonko.ย
