One Piece 3D: Straw Hat Chase

One Piece 3D: Straw Hat Chase is the eleventh theatrical outing for the pirate crew and takes place before the two year time skip, keeping the team in its early, rowdy phase. The film introduces 3D computer animation for a One Piece feature, signaling the series' willingness to experiment with visual scale. It also continues the franchise’s habit of pairing another anime property, joining Toriko 3D: Gourmet Adventure as a double feature under the Jump Heroes banner. The two films arrived in theaters on March 19, 2011, giving fans a big screen, two-part experience.

Directed by Hiroyuki Satou and produced within Toei Animation, the movie adapts Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga. It arrived in theaters on March 19, 2011 as part of a 3D double feature with Toriko 3D: Gourmet Adventure, under Jump Heroes, for fans worldwide.

Audience reaction skewed mixed to positive, with a vote around 6.74 out of 10 from 165 ratings. Viewers praised the lively teamwork among the Straw Hats and the new depth the 3D presentation gave to chase sequences, while some felt the story paused the momentum between bigger arcs that stretch.

By presenting the first fully CGI One Piece film and pairing it with Toriko, Straw Hat Chase helped push CGI cinema within the franchise and reinforced the idea that anime films could function as cross title events. The Jump Heroes branding underscored a shared audience for action spectacles across markets.

Animation for the film comes from Toei Animation as part of the long running One Piece cinema line. It draws on Eiichiro Oda's manga, with Hiroyuki Satou directing. The principal voices include Mayumi Tanaka as Luffy, Kazuya Nakai Zoro, Akemi Okamura Nami, Kappei Yamaguchi Usopp, and Hiroaki Hirata Sanji today.
