One Piece will be releasing a special new film in celebration of the anime’s 20th Anniversary, and Toei Animation officially revealed fans’ first look at it with a new poster and teaser trailer.

Officially titled One Piece: Stampede, the new film will serve as the 14th film in the franchise. Details are currently under wraps as to what the new film will entail, but it has an official release date of August 9, 2019 in Japan.
The official Twitter for the film also teases that there is a deeper meaning to its “Stampede” subtitle, “One Piece: Stampede is the title! Stampede is a wording meaning rushing or running away. As a film made to honor the anime’s 20th anniversary, it will heat up the Summer of 2019. What is meant by the straw hat dancing in the sky!? And the huge monster made of rubble behind! Please wait for more news!”
With a Summer release imminent, fans should expect more news on the film sooner rather than later. Fans are especially excited to see the true meaning behind the “Stampede” in the title, and it’s especially interesting given the new beast seemingly made out of junk metal.
Read on to see what fans are saying about the new One Piece film, and let us know what you think in the comments!
Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece first began serialization in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997. It has since been collected into over 80 volumes, and has been a critical and commercial success worldwide with many of the volumes breaking printing records in Japan. The manga has even set a Guinness World Record for the most copies published for the same comic book by a single author, and is the best-selling manga series worldwide with over 430 million copies sold. The series still ranked number one in manga sales in 2018, which surprised fans of major new entries.

Hope This Isn’t the Case…
You should note the next One Piece movie doesn’t have “Film” in the title. Being referred to as “Gekijoban” (Movie) as opposed to the “Film” title so it probably means Oda isn’t involved directly with the story like he was on the “Film” ones.

Will it Feel Big Too?
I know it’s silly but I really hope we aren’t droping the “Film” subtitle for the new #OnePiece movie. One Piece Film: Strong World, Z, and Gold all sounded like true big events for the OP anime because of that title. So here’s hoping the trend continues..One Piece Film: Stampede pic.twitter.com/4TX8CoOurg
