The One Piece anime has recently announced three exciting castings for the ongoing Egghead arc. Satoshi Hino will voice Prince Grus, Toa Yukinari will voice Vice Admiral Doll, and Shiori Mikami will voice Hibari. All three have notable voice acting credits in other popular anime such as Demon Slayer, Naruto, and Attack on Titan.
These castings have been officially confirmed by the franchise's official X accounts, and are not mere rumors or leaks. Fans can look forward to seeing all three characters make their debut in the upcoming 1090th episode of the series, set to release this Sunday, January 14, 2024 in Japan.
These initial castings mark just the beginning of the Egghead arc, with more to come before the arc concludes. Viewers can anticipate a number of additional characters being introduced as the television anime adaptation progresses through the Egghead arc. This will be particularly evident in the latter part of the arc as it builds up to its climax, introducing multiple new characters all at once.
The Egghead arc is the beginning of the final saga for the television anime adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's original manga series. While the anime is just starting the final stretch, the manga has been progressing into the final saga for some time. It seems that the manga is reaching the climax of the Egghead arc just as the anime is beginning to adapt that part of the story.
