One Piece is certainly one of the longest-running anime series, with over a thousand episodes and a few films here and there. In its latest film entry, One Piece Film: Red takes the Straw Hats Pirates into a new adventure that pits them against an unheard adversary that uses music against them.
Here is the One Piece Film: Red synopsis:
Uta—the most beloved singer in the world whose voice has been described as “otherworldly”—is renowned for concealing her own identity when performing. Now, for the first time ever, she will reveal herself to the world at a live concert.
With the Navy watching closely, the venue fills with Uta’s fans—including excited pirates and the Straw Hats led by Luffy, who simply came to enjoy her sonorous performance—all eagerly awaiting the voice that the whole world has been waiting for to resound. The story begins with the shocking revelation that she is the enigmatic Shanks’ daughter.
