A surprise festival special built entirely around One Piece's own celebration, not a story arc. The cast gets to breathe the same air as the actual event, turning meta-awareness into pure comedy instead of winking at the camera. Hiroshi Kitadani voicing a character in his own show is the kind of weird, self-aware flex that only works when everyone involved knows exactly what joke they're telling.

A short comedy special from ONE PIECE in LOVE, produced to celebrate the ONE PIECE DAY'25 event and screened unannounced on the festival's first day, August 9, 2025. The cast of ONE PIECE in LOVE takes part in the celebrations of the event. The special marks the first voice acting role for Hiroshi Kitadani, who sang "We Are!", the original ONE PIECE opening theme. The tone stays light and comedic throughout, and the episode includes brief references to the manga's Elbaf arc.
