ONE PIECE DAY ’26: Free Global Stream on 22–23 August — Character Poll, Card Game Reveal Inside

Singapore One Piece fans, one of the biggest annual dates on the franchise calendar is just two weeks away — and you can watch the whole thing live, for free, from your couch.

What Is ONE PIECE DAY ’26?

ONE PIECE DAY is Toei Animation and Shueisha’s yearly fan celebration, combining franchise announcements, voice cast appearances, character polls, card game reveals, and live music under one roof. This year’s event runs across two days — Saturday 22 August and Sunday 23 August — at the Makuhari Messe convention centre in Chiba, Japan. Key segments will stream live and free worldwide via the official ONE PIECE YouTube channel, no ticket or VPN required.

Day 1 — Premium Eve (22 August, stream starts 17:15 SGT)

The first broadcast runs from 17:15 to roughly 18:45 SGT and is dedicated almost entirely to one thing: the 2nd Global ONE PIECE Character Popularity Poll World Top 100. Characters ranked 100 to 31 will be revealed live on stage. Midterm results had Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji locked in the top three — whether that order holds when the full results drop is what every fan will be arguing about on Sunday morning.

Day 2 — Main Event (23 August, stream starts 09:30 SGT)

  • 09:40 SGT — Character Popularity Poll Top 30: The remaining ranked characters, including the all-important Number 1, are revealed.
  • 10:40 SGT — Franchise News Segments: Two back-to-back news windows on the official schedule, where major ONE PIECE announcements — including updates on upcoming projects — will be made.
  • 11:40 SGT — ONE PIECE Card Game Panel: A new Kaido card illustrated by Keisuke Itagaki (known for Baki) has already been confirmed for this panel. Further card game announcements are expected.
  • 13:10 SGT — Elbaph Arc Voice Cast Panel: Mayumi Tanaka (Luffy), Kazuya Nakai (Zoro), Akemi Okamura (Nami), and new voice actors joining for the Elbaph arc’s cast appear together in a dedicated panel.
  • 16:15 SGT — Live Concert: Closing performances by AiNA THE END, Jisoku 36km/h (performing the current Elbaph arc theme), Hiroshi Kitadani, and Maki Otsuki.

How to Watch from Singapore

Both days stream live on the ONE PIECE Official ENG YouTube channel. The Premium Eve on Saturday (17:15 SGT) is the friendlier timeslot for Singapore fans — a weekend evening watch party. Sunday’s main event starts at 09:30 SGT, which is early but very doable for a weekend morning.

Sessions are expected to be archived after the broadcast, but given how fast character poll spoilers travel on social media, catching the poll reveal live is strongly recommended if you care about the results landing unspoiled. Check the official ONE PIECE DAY website for any last-minute schedule changes — times are subject to revision.
