Popeyes x ONE PIECE collab just launched today with an anime-inspired menu and exclusive collectibles dropping nationwide. April 13, 2026 marks the fast-food chain’s first anime partnership ever, featuring iconic character-themed items from the legendary series. Fans nationwide are hunting for limited bento box collectibles at just 6 select locations.

Anime Gets a Taste of Chicken: Popeyes x ONE PIECE Collab Officially Live

The highly anticipated collaboration between Popeyes and the global hit anime ONE PIECE finally arrived today. This historic partnership marks the first-ever anime collaboration for the chicken chain. Toei Animation, the studio behind the legendary series, partnered with Popeyes to create a dining experience inspired by Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat Crew. The collab transforms iconic anime moments into craveable menu items designed for fans of all ages.

According to Matt Rubin, Chief Marketing Officer at Popeyes, the partnership embodies the spirit of adventure. “For ONE PIECE fans, the story is about adventure, loyalty, and going all-in for the things you love,” Rubin stated. This energy perfectly aligns with Popeyes’ bold flavor philosophy.

Four Character-Inspired Menu Items Fuel Your Adventure

The limited-time menu features four standout items inspired by beloved characters and story elements. The Luffy Bento Bundle ($13.99) serves as the ultimate power meal. This legendary feast includes two pieces of signature chicken, creamy mac and cheese, a Gum-Gum Fruit Lemonade, and Chopper’s Cupcake bundled together. Fans seeking a lighter option can grab the Luffy Bento Box ($7.99) with just the chicken and sides.

Gum-Gum Fruit Lemonade ($3.49) references Luffy’s Devil Fruit powers with a bright, refreshing flavor. Finally, Chopper’s Cupcake ($3.99) delivers a sweet pink-frosted treat inspired by the crew’s lovable doctor. All prices vary by location.

Six Cities Get Exclusive Collectible Bento Box Drops Today

The real treasure hunt begins at 6 select Popeyes locations across major US cities.

The drops happen at the following locations on April 13, 2026: New York City (1530 Broadway), Boston (304 Squire Rd, Revere, MA), New Jersey (571 Milltown Rd, New Brunswick), Chicago (621 Ogden Ave, Downers Grove, IL), Los Angeles (7635 Winnetka Ave), and Miami (1427 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL).
