One Piece is currently airing the Whole Cake Island arc. Currently, One Piece is on episode 835 and tomorrow we will get Episode 836. The Episode will feature Mother Carmel. For those who don’t know, Mother Carmel was supposedly the caretaker of Big Mom, when she was a child. With the addition of a new character, there had to be an addition to the cast for the upcoming episode.

On Friday the official website for One Piece announced that Fumi Hirano (Urusei Yatsura’s Lum, Detective Conan’s Rumi Wakasa) will be playing Mother Carmel in the series, starting with the show’s 836th episode on Sunday. Tomorrow’s episode is going to be set around Big Mom’s past as a child.

There isn’t much detail available for the anime episode yet. But, we can expect great quality of animation and storyline. The anime has really become better because of the much better storyline in the Whole Cake Island arc. Namie Amuro debuted the current opening theme song for the series last year on October 1.

If you are interested in watching the anime, I’ll leave the synopsis of the series below—

One Piece follows the adventures of a boy named Monkey D. Luffy, who sets sail as he wants to become the Pirate King. But, the adventure won’t be so easy as there countless obstacles that Luffy would overcome in order to realize his dream. Luffy is also on the lookout for new crew members who will help him get to his dream.
