One Piece Elbaph Arc developments: Sanji power upgrades and English dub return

The One Piece manga is entering a pivotal stage in the Elbaph Arc, focusing on character power upgrades for the Straw Hat crew. Chapter 1195 suggests that Sanji may be the next member to receive a significant boost, potentially through the awakening of Conqueror’s Haki. This development appears to be linked to revisiting his traumatic past, including his time on Momoiro Island.

Regarding the anime, the English dub is scheduled to return to Crunchyroll later this month. The dub will begin with the One Piece Heroines special on October 13, followed by the official start of the Elbaph Arc on October 20 with episode 1156. New voice cast members for the Knights of God, Dawn M. Bennett and Ray Chase, have been confirmed for the roles of Gunko and Shamrock.
