It\u2019s January, February, and March madness!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The long-running franchise that is One Piece<\/strong> has dominated manga<\/a>, anime, video games, card games, live action TV<\/a>, and Times Square<\/a>. Recently, it\u2019s even had its sights set on many of the USA\u2019s biggest sports, with the most recent being NCAA basketball, which is getting the One Piece treatment at not just one but 15 games between January and March 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n One Piece College Basketball: US Voyage<\/strong> will bring fun activities and limited-edition merch to teams and schools from coast to coast, starting with Rutgers University<\/strong> in New Jersey and Gozanga University<\/strong> in Washington, from late January to early February. It can also be experienced at St. John\u2019s University<\/strong> in New York throughout February. The latter half of February and early March will see events take place at the University of Houston<\/strong> in Texas and the University of Illinois<\/strong>. A full schedule can be found at the end of this article.<\/p>\n Three One Piece<\/em>-themed games will be held at each venue, and one of those three will feature a special halftime show. Attendees at those games will be treated to a special performance of the theme song \u201cWe are!\u201d by the schools\u2019 marching bands and cheerleading squads<\/strong>, while limited-edition T-shirts will be launched into the stands. And speaking of T-shirts, students of the participating schools who attend games will receive free T-shirts featuring Luffy and their school\u2019s logo.<\/p>\n All spectators will receive a similar image of Luffy flexing his stuff by a team logo for each school in the form of a poster given away for free.<\/p>\n Not only that, but they\u2019ll also receive a very limited One Piece College Basketball: US Voyage card<\/strong> for the One Piece Card Game<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Much like in past sports collaborations, the venues will be decked out<\/a> in One Piece<\/em> displays to give them a whole new look. Also, before the Rutgers game on 23 January and during a timeout of the St. John\u2019s game on 6 February, a video shout-out by cast members of the live-action One Piece<\/em> series will be shown.<\/p>\n \u25bc I wonder if my fellow Guinness Record holders<\/a> Emily Rudd and Mackenyu Maeda will be a part of the video.<\/p>\n Now, with NCAA basketball another notch in One Piece\u2019s scabbard, its conquering of American sports is nearly complete. We\u2019ll be sure to let you know when it eventually reaches the shores of NHL, FIFA, and International Sports Onigoko Federation<\/a> games.<\/p>\n Game Schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n Friday, 23 January Saturday, 24 January Tuesday, 27 January Saturday, 31 January Friday, 6 February Saturday, 7 February Monday, 9 February Tuesday, 10 February Saturday, 14 February Sunday, 15 February Saturday, 21 February Friday, 27 February Saturday, 28 February Tuesday, 3 March Wednesday, 4 March Related: One Piece College Basketball: US Voyage<\/a><\/em> It\u2019s January, February, and March madness!
