The English dubbed episodes of Water Seven, Thriller Bark & Summit War Arcs for ONE PIECE are now available to stream on BBC iPlayer in the UK. 310 episodes were added to the streaming platform on 20th October 2024 (as we mentioned here) and are presented in the original aspect ratio (which at this point was 16:9 widescreen) and are seemingly being streamed in High Definition.
As a reminder the BBC acquired the English dubbed streaming rights for ONE PIECE in the UK and on 1st September 2024 the BBC iPlayer service added the East Blue, Alabasta and Skypiea arcs (listed as Seasons 1 – 3). On 20th October 2024 a further 310 English dubbed episodes, which cover the Water Seven, Thriller Bark & Summit War Arcs, were added and the remaining arcs (listed as Season 7 – 10) are expected to be added before the year ends. The episodes available on BBC iPlayer are the uncut FUNimation (Crunchyroll) English Dub and the quality of episodes varies depending on how it was originally broadcast. East Blue, Alabasta and Skypiea look to be presented in 4:3 SD PAL whereas Water Seven, Thriller Bark & Summit War Arcs are presented in 16:9 HD.
Synopsis: Monkey D. Luffy is a boy with big dreams. This daring rubber-man refuses to let anyone or anything stand in the way of his quest to become king of all pirates. With a course charted for the treacherous waters of the Grand Line, Luffy strikes out in search of a crew – and a boat. Along the way he’ll do battle with scallywag clowns, fishy foes, and an entire fleet of marines eager to see him walk the plank. The stakes are high, but with each adventure, Luffy adds a new friend to his gang of Straw Hat Pirates! Like his hero Gold Roger, this is one captain who’ll never drop anchor until he’s claimed the greatest treasure on Earth – the Legendary One Piece!
As it stands the East Blue, Alabasta, Skypiea, Water Seven, Thriller Bark and Summit War Arcs arcs of ONE PIECE are available to stream dubbed in English on BBC iPlayer in the UK. ONE PIECE is also available to stream (and simulcast stream new episodes weekly) subtitled on Crunchyroll in the UK, with the Egghead Arc episodes also available to stream subtitled on Netflix UK.
