In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the anime "ONE PIECE," an official local report has arrived from Las Vegas, where the anime has collaborated with the latest entertainment facility, "Sphere."

During the week ending on the 16th, special footage featuring characters such as Monkey D. Luffy is being shown at "Sphere." The 90-second animation includes newly drawn content supervised by the original creator, Eiichiro Oda.

On the 11th, this special footage was exclusively broadcast, and as the city grew darker, fans in cosplay and enthusiastic supporters gathered at nearby viewing spots, turning the entire Las Vegas area into a "ONE PIECE" celebration.

Additionally, Kazuki Yao, the voice actor for the Straw Hat Pirates' shipwright, Franky, eagerly attended the event in Las Vegas to support and enjoy this commemorative moment with fans from around the world.

Handwritten Message from Creator Eiichiro Oda

"Talking about 'Sphere in Las Vegas,' did you know that there’s such a gigantic spherical screen in Las Vegas, USA!? For the first time, Japanese content, ONE PIECE, will be displayed here! Words can’t convey it, so please check out the video!! Congratulations on the 25th anniversary of the ONE PIECE anime!!"

Comments from Voice Actor Kazuki Yao

"The Sphere footage made it feel like ONE PIECE took over not just Las Vegas, but the entire planet. The moment Luffy’s face appeared on the spherical screen, his cuteness and smiling face were just perfect! The video included iconic scenes from the 25-year history, making it an incredibly wonderful display. I believe ONE PIECE is a work filled with the charm of the Japanese language. I hope people all over the world will enjoy ONE PIECE in Japanese. To all ONE PIECE fans, if your schedule allows, please come and see the Sphere in Las Vegas!"
