Overview
- Toei Animation announced the two films at ONE PIECE DAY '26 on August 23, confirming One Piece Film: God Valley for summer 2027 in Japan and One Piece Film: BAAD for 2029.
- God Valley will adapt the manga’s God Valley Incident, a long‑running backstory that reunites figures such as Rocks D. Xebec, Gol D. Roger, Monkey D. Garp, Whitebeard, Big Mom and Kaidou.
- Reports say the God Valley story does not focus on Luffy or the Straw Hat crew, making it a rare One Piece theatrical project based on canonical material rather than a non‑canon side tale.
- Production is in early stages with no director, cast or full staff announced, and Toei’s shares rose about 5.6% after the film reveals, showing investor interest in the franchise move.
- The God Valley announcement joins other major 2027 plans for the franchise, including WIT Studio’s Netflix remake and the Elbaf arc, and could change how One Piece sequences are adapted to film while raising coordination and continuity challenges.
