One Piece‘s English dub is preparing to make its return with new episodes later this month, and it’s beefing up the Elbaph Arc cast ahead of its premiere. One Piece made its grand return earlier this Spring with the start of the Elbaph Arc from Eiichiro Oda’s original manga. It kicked off a new era for the franchise now that the anime has shifted to a new seasonal release schedule with only a set number of episodes planned for each year. That also resulted in a change to its English dub schedule too.
