Luffy VS Kaido: the longest fight ! One Piece episode 1076 aired on September 17th. The latter is the conclusion of a long, bitter battle between the Straw Hat and Kaido.

This part of the Wano arc also contained some plot twists. However, it is still the longest battle in anime history: 61 episodes and more than a year. Some Twitter users, like @kaneda471, also had fun compiling statistics compared to other Japanese animated series to visualize the length.
61 episode…. This is unheard of in PTN and I have shocking statistics. 61 episodes are:
-3 episodes more than the entire Chimera Ants arc
-18 episodes more than the entire GTO anime
-24 episodes more than the entire Death Note anime
-3 episodes less than the entire FMA anime
-14 Episode… https://t.co/niLol68Jmo

This act is also part of the Land of Wano Saga. This is the longest story arc in the entire One Piece oeuvre, divided into three acts. It contains 149 chapters and thereby dethrones the previous record: the arch Dress pink who had 102.
Other records for One Piece

Lately, it’s Netflix’s live-action series that are delighting audiences. In 10 episodes of approximately fifty minutes, the series covers the first ten volumes of One Piece (up to the Arlong arc). With Inaki Godoy In the role of a young pirate, she caused a big surprise for many viewers. The TV show made it to first place in the top 10 in 84 countries in its first week of broadcast. A few days ago, Netflix also renewed the live action for a second season.
