IShowSpeed Claims Exclusive Rights to Stream One Piece Anime
The popular streamer says he has permission to broadcast all episodes of the anime, a first-of-its-kind arrangement with Toei Animation.
- IShowSpeed, a prominent YouTuber and streamer, announced that he has been granted permission to stream the entire One Piece anime without copyright strikes.
- The claim, if true, marks the first time Toei Animation has allowed a creator to re-stream the series in its entirety, a notable departure from its usual strict copyright policies.
- Speed has yet to confirm how he plans to utilize this opportunity but suggested the possibility of a marathon stream, which could take weeks to complete given the anime's 1,122 episodes.
- Some fans have expressed skepticism about the legitimacy of the arrangement, given Toei's historically stringent stance on such permissions.
- If realized, this collaboration could introduce One Piece to a wider audience while potentially boosting Speed's already massive following across YouTube and Twitch.
