One Piece is entering its final saga and shifting to a seasonal anime format in 2026, but its exact end date is unknown, though fans and analysts predict it could conclude around 2028-2032, depending on the manga's pace, with current estimates suggesting the anime's new seasonal run will adapt more manga chapters per episode. Creator Eiichiro Oda has stated the story is in its final stretch, but timelines vary, with recent news focusing on the anime's format change after its 26-year weekly run ended in December 2025 with the Egghead Arc.
One Piece's original anime run, which has lasted an extraordinary 26 years, is coming to an end with its current broadcast block. The final episode of Season 1 is scheduled to air on December 28, 2025, marking the end of this long-running television era.
'One Piece' enters its final saga
True to his word, after Wano, the series transitioned into its Final Saga with the Egghead arc—a segment that quickly became a fan favorite.
It will take around 8 to 9 more years for the series to fully adapt all the remaining story. 🤗 This fan roadmap imagines what the rest of the journey could look like: Egghead in 2025, Elbaf from 2026 to 2028, Laugh Tale in 2029, The War from 2030 to 2031, the Final War in 2032 to 2033, and an Epilogue in 2034.
There are currently 796 episodes (excluding Egghead Island) of One Piece available to stream on Netflix, and adding more episodes from Whole Cake Island will bring that number to somewhere in the region of 809-891. In 2024, Netflix added the Marineford Arc, Fishman Island Arc, and Punk Hazard Arc to the library.
One Piece stopped at episode 1122 in late 2024 for a planned six-month hiatus, allowing creators to "recharge" and align the anime with the manga's pacing for the intense Egghead Arc, returning in April 2025 with new episodes and a move to a Sunday night timeslot after broadcasting a re-edited Fish-Man Island saga during the break.
Yes, Netflix did skip a large chunk of One Piece episodes (over 500) to jump straight to the new "Egghead Arc" for some regions, following a deal to stream the latest content weekly, but they are slowly adding older arcs back in, though Crunchyroll remains the home for the complete series. This strategy allows Netflix to offer the current episodes, but it means new viewers might miss major story points if they start there, despite author Eiichiro Oda suggesting the arc is a good entry point.

You probably meant 406 and 407, which are both filler. I mean, both episodes are totally not related to the plot and will not have any bearing on the plot. They are safe to skip. The episodes feature characters that you should already be familiar with, but in a different setting/timeline.
