With over 50 musicians performing on stage in front of a large projection screen showing off video footage from the One Piece anime, fans will get to soak in music from the thousand-plus-episode adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s manga in an appropriately grand fashion. The music in these particular performances will pick up at the end of the Dressrosa arc, covering key themes from Whole Cake Island and Wano along the way, as well as some of the most famous tracks from the series, from “We Are!” to “Ougon to Oden,” “Katayoku no Taka” and more.

There will also be special appearances by composer Kohei Tanaka and singer Hiroshi Kitadani—known for recent hit opening theme song “OVER THE TOP” as well as stone cold classics “We Are!” and “We Go!”—at the Los Angeles performance. Folks who purchase VIP tickets will even get a meet and greet opportunity with Kohei Tanaka.

You can get tickets for the July 5 Dallas performance here and the July 15 Los Angeles performance here.

You can catch all of the One Piece anime on Crunchyroll, which describes the series like so:

Monkey. D. Luffy refuses to let anyone or anything stand in the way of his quest to become the king of all pirates. With a course charted for the treacherous waters of the Grand Line and beyond, this is one captain who’ll never give up until he’s claimed the greatest treasure on Earth: the Legendary One Piece!
