On March 4 at 5:55 A.M. Japan time, the TV channel Fuji TV showed visuals from the upcoming One Piece movie, One Piece Film: Gold on its daily morning show, Mezamashi TV.

As we already knew from previous reveals in the Weekly Shonen Jump, the movie is set inside the ship of possible movie antagonist Gild Tesoro. The ship’s name: the Gran Tesoro (or Grantesoro depending on which spelling the movie will use).

The images shown today reveal just how imposing the 10km golden ship is — after all, the Gran Tesoro is apparently the One Piece world’s biggest casino and entertainment facility. Japanese One Piece super fan, Kamiki, was also quick to note how there was one person in the background who looks strangely familiar: Heracles.

“Heracles, what are you doing…”

To finish off the One Piece Film: Gold segment, the Mezamashi TV morning show also showed the special One Piece Film: Gold and Toho Cinemas’ collaborative teaser video that was made under supervision of One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda.

One Piece Film: Gold will be released in Japan on July 23 and no release dates have been offered yet in other countries. Previous announcements have already given us a few ideas on the Straw Hats’ different costumes throughout the movie, as well as an idea of what Gild Tesoro, the potential main antagonist of the movie, and his crewmates will look like in this golden city.
