One Piece Episode 1020: Release Date & Preview

One Piece is one of the longest-running and one of the best anime ever. With the Wano Arc almost over in the manga, the anime is not far behind. Episode 1019 of One Piece adapted chapter 1004 of the manga. Judging by this, we can expect the producers to adapt only the chapters 1005 or 1005 and 1006 both. One Piece Episode 1020 will air later this week and we are going to give out all the available information regarding the same.

While Luffy and Kaido are at the center of this battle, every other fight is equally important. Pirates, samurais, beasts, and everyone is fighting at Onigashima.

One Piece Episode 1019 Recap

The episode starts with what is going on at Onigashima. Big Mom knocks down Luffy, while Kaido in his dragon form is wreaking havoc. The narrative then changes and shows Tama.

The 1019th episode of One Piece gave us something new. While most of the episodes in the arc have so far focused on the Onigashima Raid and some pretty fights, episode 1019 gave a different perspective of the raid. In One Piece episode 1019, we saw what is going on in the rest of Onigashima during the raid.

The episode primarily focuses on Tama and her attempts to control the Gifters. Some fans were disappointed with this episode as the previous episodes foreshadowed some highly anticipated fights of the Skull Dome battle.

We see Tama who is already inside Onigashima with help from Speed. We see Tama’s flashbacks where she recalls how she wants to make a difference in the Onigashima Raid and wants to help her allies. She ate the devil fruit Kibi Kibi no Mi allowing her to make Dango from her cheeks. Since the Beasts Pirates are half-animal, Tama wants to feed the Kibi Dango to them, then she will be able to control them as she likes.

In the present-day Tama give the dumplings to the Gifters with the help from Daifugo and Gazelleman. Slowly, Tama starts taking control of many Beasts Pirates. On the other side, Chopper is still in the pursuit of the cure for ice Oni virus. Many people are infected with the virus and are attacking blindly in rage. Then we see Franky and Sasaki continuing their fight. Sasaki has unleashed his Triceratops form.

Franky manages to subdue Sasaki for a moment. As Franky prepares to attack Sasaki, the gifters grab hold of him. Just then, Usopp, Nami, and Tama comes to Franky’s rescue with all the gifters under Tama’s control. All the gifters start following Tama while Franky unleashes a fatal attack on Sasaki using his Franken Sword.
