The ratings for the recently released One Piece Episode 1112 have already eclipsed those of the Demon Slayer Season 4 finale.
For a very long time, One Piece fans have been anticipating the Shanks vs. Kid episode. This is not just a significant story point, but it’s also the first time we’ve seen Shanks engage in combat on screen.
Naturally, everyone would be anticipating this given the mystery surrounding Shanks’ persona. Toei Animation spared no effort to make this encounter as epic as fans had wanted, knowing this as well.
On July 14, after several months of anticipation and teasing, One Piece Episode 1112—which was based on Chapter 1079—was finally published. And all of the admirers concur that the wait was worthwhile.
In the episode “Clash! Shanks vs. Eustass Kid,” the Red-Haired Pirates are challenged by Eustass Kid’s Kid Pirates on Elbaf. The crews have clashed before; Kid lost his arm on the first try. However, in Episode 1112, Shanks solves the issue on his own, in contrast to the previous instance.
Shanks dominates his opponent from the start of the match, setting up a magnificent one-sided duel that is concluded by his Divine Departure. Comparably, the giants and Yonko’s crew are too strong for the Kid Pirates to defeat.
With its stunning animation and masterful direction, the latest episode shot to the top of the rankings right away. It received an astounding 9.9 rating on IMDb, outperforming numerous highly regarded anime episodes—including the season four finale of Demon Slayer.
The anime show’s highest-rated episode is the finale, “The Hashira Unite.” It is one of the finest episodes of 2024, with a 9.8 rating, and features Muzan’s much-awaited meeting with Kagaya Ubuyashiki and the subsequent battle against the Hashira.
One Piece Episode 1112 has already overthrown it, demonstrating the legendary anime’s continued global appeal. Furthermore, with Episode 1100 earning a 9.7 rating, the well-liked Shonen anime comes in third place on the list.
We may anticipate that the One Piece anime will rule the second half of 2024 with even more incredible episodes, especially with so many exciting events in the Egghead Arc still to come. Regarding Demon Slayer, once the Infinity Castle films open in theaters, it is anticipated to smash a variety of box office records.
