How many seasons for One Piece (the og anime) are planned?

The original One Piece anime is no longer planned as an open-ended weekly run; it’s been announced to move to a seasonal format starting in 2026 , with up to 26 episodes per year. The reports available now do not give a final total number of seasons, so the honest answer is: no fixed end number has been officially confirmed yet.

What’s been said so far

• The new format is described as seasonal , not continuous weekly airing.

• The yearly cap is 26 episodes , split into two cours.

• That means the anime will keep coming in batches, but the total season count remains unknown.

Best current estimate

If you mean “how many seasons might it take to finish the whole story,” there still isn’t an official number. One report says the anime could continue in seasonal form for a long time, but it does not lock in a final season count.

Quick note

If you were actually asking about the Netflix live-action version, that’s a different question: recent coverage says the producers have discussed 8 to 10 seasons , with some optimistic talk of more.

TL;DR: For the og anime , there’s no confirmed final season count yet ; it’s just confirmed to become seasonal in 2026.
