Read One Piece Episode 1056 Summaries, Full Preview, Leaks & Much More Updates
On Sunday, April 2, 2023, at 9:30 a.m. JST, the next episode of One Piece, number 1056, will premiere. With last week’s montage-like exploration of Onigashima, the anime appears to be setting the stage for the climax events of the Wano arc. Even though there’s a long way to go, the show is starting to go in the right direction. As there are currently no spoilers available for One Piece Episode 1056, this is still largely conjectural. But, viewers are confident that the story will soon come to a close.
When and where can we expect to see the premiere?
On Sunday, April 2, 2023, at 9:30 a.m. JST, local Japanese networks will begin showing Episode 1056 of One Piece. For a select group of viewers throughout the world, the show will premiere on a Saturday night. Most fans outside of Japan, however, will have to wait until Sunday morning local time to watch the episode. The actual time of release may vary by area and time zone.
Crunchyroll will make the episode available for streaming around 90 minutes after it first airs in Japan. New episodes of the series are also made available each week via Funimation’s streaming service. Their delays are far longer than those of Crunchyroll, though. So, the best place to watch the next episode is Crunchyroll.

Synopsis of Episode 1055
In the opening moments of One Piece Episode 1055, we saw Sanji and Queen’s unrelenting attack on each other continue. Sanji’s body, however, stopped responding to treatment. Queen underlined that this was not because of Haki’s leadership but rather Germa’s scientific advancements. Sanji is afraid that if Vinsmoke Judge were to get an exoskeleton, he would become a ruthless monster like his brothers, as stated by Queen. The program changed its focus to Nico Robin and Brook for a short while. It was discovered that the Animal Kingdom Pirates and CP0 were both after her live capture. After then, Kin’emon and Kanjuro became the main characters in One Piece Episode 1055. Kurozumi Orochi was able to get in touch with Kurozumi Kanjuro through Transponder Snail while the lower half of the former located Nami’s party and led them to Kiku. In response to Orochi’s final request, Kanjuro drew a gigantic living flame, whom he named Kazenbo, and sent him on a mission to set fire to everything in the castle as he went.
Expectations from Episode 1056
If the last scenes of One Piece Episode 1054 are any indication, the next episode will put the spotlight on Law and Kid’s fight against Big Mom. These two are engaged in arguably the island’s most intense conflict outside of Luffy’s one-on-one combat with Kaido on the rooftop of the Skull Dome. The story seems to be postponing the major developments of Zoro vs King and Luffy versus Kaido until after Sanji’s battle with Queen is over, suggesting that the spotlight will be on Sanji. In addition, Episode 1055 will focus on Sanji’s emotions over his transformation into a heartless monster, so viewers may anticipate a storyline on this subject. A quick introduction to Kazenbo and an update on Yamato’s condition may be expected in One Piece Episode 1056. With the two characters ostensibly striving toward opposite ends, the narrative will eventually bring them into conflict.
