One Piece Episode 1151: Release date and everything we need to know

One Piece Episode 1151 has been eagerly awaited by the fans as it is shaping up to become one of the most emotional installments since the Egghead Island arc began. But turns out that fans will have to wait for a little bit longer, as it seems like Toei Animation has scheduled another recap episode, which in turn pushed the release of the next major chapter in the final saga.

While delays in the world of One Piece have become common this year, the timing of this one stings more than usual, especially with the arc racing toward its climactic finish. According to official sources, it is now confirmed that One Piece Episode 1151 will release on November 30, 2025.

Originally, this episode was supposed to be released on November 23, but the production house released a recap special episode focused on Chopped, and this episode is titled “Dr. Chopper’s Adventure Checkup - The ‘Final World Broadcast’ That the Genius Left Behind.” From sources, it seems like this episode will show us Vegapunk’s monumental world broadcast, summarizing the information he shared before the Five Elders abruptly cut him off.

Fans who want to watch this series can stream it legally on multiple streaming platforms like Netflix (selected arc) and Crunchyroll. The episode will first air in Japan and then soon be made available for fans around the world. Once the recap airs, the anime will be returning to its regular schedule, and One Piece Episode 1151 will finally debut.

Recap of Episode 1150

Episode 1150 focused on how the world is reacting to Vegapunk's broadcast, and everyone is trying to escape from the island. But the highlights of this episode were on how Zoro fought with one of the Elders. The animation was visually striking, and while this was a minor battle, it was important because this elder was on his way to destroy the Thousand Sunny. Fans loved to watch their beloved character in action.

Another moment in this episode was the Five Elders finally ending Vegapunk’s broadcast. Just as he began talking in detail about the mystery of the “Will of D,” the Elders launched a coordinated attack that submerged the Iron Giant and severed the transmission. Unfortunately, this important broadcast ending mid-revelation felt brutal.

But fans were not surprised, as One Piece is known to tease about these mysteries, as it is still not the right time for the creator to reveal such important information. Meanwhile, Luffy is also on his way with the Elbaf giants, where Bonney and Sanji are waiting for them to get on board. The Marines are still trying their best not to allow anyone to escape.

What to expect from One Piece Episode 1151? (Speculative)

Trending

Based on the episode title and narrative setup, fans can expect One Piece Episode 1151 to focus on Bonney’s emotional arc, her childhood dreams, and her desperate fight to free herself and Kuma from their tragic destiny. With the Egghead arc nearing its end, this upcoming episode may also represent Bonney’s final spotlight moment before the story shifts its focus toward Elbaph.

There is also a chance that the upcoming episode will show developments hinting at the Iron Giant’s survival, as its sudden disappearance at the bottom of the sea feels too abrupt for a figure tied so deeply to Joy Boy. Most importantly, the Straw Hat Pirates appear to be gearing up for a final push to escape Egghead, and One Piece Episode 1151 could actually be the beginning of the conclusion of this intense and chaotic arc.
