One Piece is all set to debut its highly-anticipated Egghead arc – so, here’s how to watch it and what time it drops.

As one journey ends, the Straw Hats set sail for a new adventure. And this time, they will arrive at a futuristic island with countless wonders. The Straw Hats had an epic adventure in Wano country, where they dethroned two Yonkos with their allies’ help. However, more challenges lie ahead of them in the Egghead Island of One Piece.

The anime has entered its Final Saga for a while now. However, Egghead arc begins when they land on the island. Since it’s the first arc of the Final Saga, it’s considerably more significant than any arc we’ve watched so far. Not to mention, the amount of mysteries that unravel in this arc is astounding.

The recent episode dropped a major mystery about the protagonist. Since the first episode, the series has focused on Luffy’s dream to be the next Pirate King. However, Episode 1088 reveals that Luffy’s real dream is something else, and he can only achieve that by becoming the Pirate King. Here’s how and when you can watch One Piece’s Egghead arc.

How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023

Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One PieceAttack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen. And thanks to ExpressVPN, you can access the platform’s full library even if you’re outside the US.

If you’re abroad, here’s what you need to do to access Crunchyroll’s full selection – and it really is this simple:

  1. Sign up for ExpressVPN, which has ultra-fast servers and offers a secure, private connection wherever you are in the world
  2.  Connect to a location anywhere in the US. Express VPN allows you to choose from 24 different spots, from New Jersey to Santa Monica
  3.  Visit Crunchyroll online and start streaming all of your favorite animes – and perhaps some you’ve never watched

Accessing Crunchyroll’s US roster makes a difference. For example, Hong Kong users only have access to less than 100 titles, while the US has nearly 1,000 movies and TV shows.

You can also stream anime on Crunchyroll for free with an ad-supported plan. Or you can pay for a subscription. There’s even a 14-day free trial if you can’t quite make up your mind.
