All One Piece arcs in order

I won’t sit here and tell you that getting into One Piece is an easy task — it isn’t. Sure, I am mostly caught up with the anime and as of writing, I think I’m a chapter behind on the manga, but it’s taken me six years, more or less, to get here. But, what I will tell you is that I wouldn’t trade the experience of seeing Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates progress on their journey for anything.

In the One Piece manga and anime, the story is divided into 11 sagas that are made up of more isolated and focused story arcs. As you talk with other One Piece fans, you’ll learn that everyone has a preference on watching/skipping filler, and depending on your answer, the series might end up being about a hundred episodes lighter than if you were to include fillers.

So, let’s take a look at a — non-spoilery — list of One Piece sagas and story arcs that you’ll encounter in your sea-bound travels. I’ll also mention if any given story arc is considered filler, canon, or anime canon, meaning it’s canon to the events of the anime, and is referenced later on, but isn’t present in the manga. Here are all One Piece arcs in order.

All One Piece Arcs in Order

East Blue Saga

The East Blue Saga starts with the Romance Dawn Arc, and ends with the Loguetown Arc, though there is a filler arc that takes place afterwards. Here are all One Piece arcs in the East Blue Saga:

Alabasta Saga

The Alabasta Saga starts with the Reverse Mountain Arc, and ends with the Alabasta Arc. Much like the previous saga, there is an extra filler arc that takes place afterwards. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Alabasta Saga:

Sky Island Saga

The Sky Island Saga technically consists of only two arcs: the Jaya Arc, and the Skypiea Arc. However, it also consists of three filler arcs. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Sky Island Saga:

Water 7 Saga

The Water 7 Saga is a bit confusing since it has filler arcs that take place during the canon arcs, so be sure to look through the table to see which episodes count as filler. The saga technically starts with the Long Ring Long Land arc, and ends with the Post-Enies Lobby Arc. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Water 7 Saga:

Thriller Bark Saga

The Thriller Bark Saga actually consists of a single arc—the Thriller Bark Arc—but only if you’re skipping filler. If not, the saga begins with the Ice Hunter Arc and ends with the Spa Island Arc. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Thriller Bark Saga:

Summit War Saga

The Summit War Saga starts with the Sabaody Archipelago Arc, and ends with the Post-War Arc. There’s only one filler arc here, which exists to tie in with the 10th anniversary movie, One Piece Film: Strong World. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Summit War Saga:

Fish-Man Island Saga

The Fish-Man Island Saga consists of only two arcs—the Return to Sabaody Arc and the Fish-Man Island Arc—with no filler arcs whatsoever, making it the shortest saga in the series. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Fish-Man Island Saga:

Dressrosa Saga

The Dressrosa Saga also only consists of two canon arcs—the Punk Hazard Arc and the Dressrosa Arc—but there are two filler arcs alongside it. This includes the Z’s Ambition Arc, which ties in with One Piece Film: Z. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Dressrosa Saga:

Whole Cake Island Saga

The Whole Cake Island Saga technically starts with the Silver Mine Arc, but that’s a filler arc that ties in with yet another movie, One Piece Film: Gold. The saga truly kicks of with the Zou Arc, and ends with the Levely Arc, with only one other filler arc in-between. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Whole Cake Island Saga:

Wano Country Saga

The Wano Country Saga consists of only one arc, appropriately titled the Wano Country Arc. It only has a small handful of filler episodes breaking it up, including two episodes that tie in with One Piece Film: RED. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Wano Country Saga:

Final Saga

At the time of writing, the manga and anime are covering the Final Saga and it’s so far first and only arc, the Egghead Arc. As such, it’s currently unknown how many arcs this saga will consist of, and whether the anime will need to make any more filler. All we can say for certain is that, after so many years, One Piece is finally nearing its conclusion. Here are all One Piece arcs in the Final Saga:
