One Piece Treasure Cruise 12.5th Anniversary: Gunko and Giants Preview
By Sir Ayup
One Piece Treasure Cruise is preparing its 12.5th Anniversary Super Sugo-Fest for October 24, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. PST, which corresponds to October 25 at 10:00 a.m. WIB. The latest announcements reveal Saintess Gunko (Imu Possessed) alongside Dorry and Broggy as characters joining the celebration. Their arrival gives players a clear reason to watch the next Super Sugo-Fest, although the full recruit lineup, rates and banner-step conditions should still be checked in the official in-game notice when the event opens.
When Does the 12.5th Anniversary Super Sugo-Fest Start?
The English ONE PIECE Treasure Cruise account announced an October 24, 7:00 p.m. PST start for the 12.5th Anniv. Super Sugo-Fest. Because the announcement specifically uses PST (UTC−8), that translates to October 25, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. WIB, or noon in Japan. Indonesian players should follow the local date rather than assuming that an October 24 announcement means the recruit event opens on October 24 in Indonesia.
The release time matters for anyone saving Rainbow Gems for the anniversary. A new character reveal is not the same as an active banner: before the scheduled opening, the complete in-game Sugo-Fest information is the definitive place to check which recruit options are actually available. Announced times and event content can change, so the game notice should take priority if Bandai Namco publishes a revision.
Saintess Gunko (Imu Possessed) Joins the Anniversary Lineup

The latest official reveal confirms Saintess Gunko (Imu Possessed) as a new addition for the 12.5th Anniversary Super Sugo-Fest. The reveal identifies this version of Gunko explicitly, making her a distinct headline for the anniversary rather than simply repeating an older Gunko-related announcement.

The character reveal is significant, but it does not on its own establish her Captain Ability, Special, class, type, multipliers or ideal crew composition. Those are separate gameplay facts that require a readable official character infographic or an in-game description. For now, the confirmed news is her identity and association with the anniversary Super Sugo-Fest. It would be premature to call her the strongest unit of the update, assign her a tier or recommend specific teams without checking her complete kit.
The official character announcement includes a promotional video. That is the appropriate visual reference for coverage of Saintess Gunko (Imu Possessed); older Gunko artwork from another banner should not be presented as the newly announced anniversary card.
Dorry and Broggy Are Also Coming

The anniversary reveal does not stop with Gunko. Separate posts from ONE PIECE Treasure Cruise introduce Dorry and Broggy, including an official announcement that the two giants are joining the 12.5th Anniversary Super Sugo-Fest. Separate official character-ability infographics were also published for the pair.
This creates a second clear point of interest for players following the Elbaph storyline and looking for new OPTC characters. However, the mere existence of ability infographics is not enough to claim specific numerical effects without reading them. Until those details are verified, Dorry and Broggy's exact battle roles, interaction with other units, and recruitment conditions should not be inferred from their character identities alone.
For a pre-release article, the meaningful distinction is straightforward: Gunko is one featured reveal, while Dorry and Broggy are separately confirmed additions. The detailed comparison of their kits belongs in a follow-up once the actual ability information and event notices can be checked in full.
What Is Confirmed About Anniversary Rewards?

In an October 15 letter, the OPTC team provided a promotional code ahead of the 12.5th Anniversary: TRECRU125. It can be entered through the game's official Web Store to claim 30 Rainbow Gems, once per account, using a Bandai Namco ID. The English notice states that the claim period lasts until November 16 at 6:59 a.m. PST, equivalent to November 16 at 9:59 p.m. WIB.
This code was announced before the latest character reveals. It should therefore be described as a confirmed anniversary-related gift, not as proof that the new Super Sugo-Fest will offer a particular number of free pulls. The October letter also says the team has more anniversary plans in development, but it does not publish a complete list of future login bonuses, recruitment discounts or guaranteed character rewards.
Players who want the confirmed reward can use the official Web Store's promo-code page. Any additional anniversary gifts or campaign missions should be covered only after their own official notices appear.
What to Check Before Spending Rainbow Gems
The new character announcements establish the event's central appeal, but a decision to use Rainbow Gems depends on more than a reveal trailer. Once the banner becomes available, players should check the in-game details for the complete recruitable character pool, featured units, individual rates, banner parts and step-specific rewards. None of those values should be assumed from a previous anniversary event.
The distinction is particularly important with multiple promoted characters. A character being shown in an anniversary announcement does not automatically mean every banner part offers the same chance of recruiting that character. Players comparing Gunko, Dorry and Broggy should rely on the actual Sugo-Fest notice rather than guesses about the best part to pull.
The anniversary can be covered now as a confirmed preview. A more detailed pull guide would be appropriate after the full rates, steps and character abilities are visible.
What Comes Next for OPTC's 12.5th Anniversary?
The immediate milestone is the October 25, 10:00 a.m. WIB opening of the 12.5th Anniversary Super Sugo-Fest. Saintess Gunko (Imu Possessed), Dorry and Broggy have been officially revealed, and the October developer letter confirms a separate Web Store code worth 30 Rainbow Gems.
What remains unconfirmed in the material reviewed for this preview is the full summon structure, exact character kit data and any additional anniversary campaign details. Those are better treated as potential follow-up news than filled in with assumptions. For players preparing their Rainbow Gems, the most useful next step is to check the event notice at launch and compare the actual recruit options before committing resources.
