The franchise has left no stone unturned in celebrating the 26th anniversary of the series during the recent ONE PIECE DAY ’23. The event was marked with Gear 5 decorations and early displays of character merchandise. More than a year after its debut in the manga pages and a brief glimpse in One Piece Film RED, it’s clear that the franchise has been gearing up for the pivotal moment for the series’ protagonist.

Gear 5: A Game-Changing Power-Up for Luffy
The term “Gear” signifies a power-up for the protagonist, but let’s delve deeper into what this “new power” brings to the table. Since Gear 4, we haven’t seen a transformation that drastically changes Luffy’s style. And yes, “Tank-Man” and “Snake-Man” were just variants of Gear 4, not entirely new transformations. Gear 5, however, signals a redefinition of everything we’ve seen and know about Luffy’s devil fruit; it’s set to challenge all logic we know about his power. The anticipation couldn’t be higher for this momentous change. Gear 5 promises to redefine Luffy, and potentially, the world of anime as we know it.
