The English-dubbed version of the Dragon Ball, One Piece, and Toriko crossover special is now streaming on Hulu, ten years after its original release. The special features beloved characters such as Goku, Monkey D. Luffy, and Toriko. Originally aired on Toonami in October 2022, the crossover consisted of two parts.
The first half of the special was not dubbed in English due to licensing problems. As a result, Toonami opted to skip the first half and directly air the concluding part of the crossover special. However, this issue was later resolved, and Toonami eventually broadcasted the entire crossover. Please note that this article contains spoilers from the crossover special.

This crossover introduces the Siayan protagonist from Dragon Ball Z, the charismatic Gourmet Hunter from Toriko, and the captain of the Straw Hat Pirate crew from One Piece, among other characters. Notably, Vegeta and Android 18 also make appearances in this special. The initial part of the crossover storyline focuses on a tournament that involves Goku, Toriko, and Luffy.
The tournament's prize was beyond the fans' expectations - the victor would be rewarded with the most savory meat imaginable. The avid followers of the series are well aware of the characters' insatiable passion for food. A fierce showdown between three contenders culminates in a deadlock.
However, the Dragon Ball x One Piece x Toriko special later unveils the true antagonist, a mystical aquatic creature named Akami.
