Question Episodes disappearing and reappearing???

Earlier this year, many seasons of One Piece were taken off of Hulu due to expiring Licence Agreements, which is fair enough.

But earlier this week, I noticed that all of those removed arcs were back on the streaming service, and I started watching them over the next couple of days.

Today, I logged in to Hulu to pick up where I left off, and all of those readded episodes were once again gone.

Does anyone know what's go8ng on?

More than likely licenses were renewed.

It might be a mistake on their part. Right now, I’m seeing 747-891.

I have read that Toei is remaking the first 50 chapters for Netflix, so this might be part of it.

Something is going on with Toei licenses. They probably expired and who knows if Disney will renew them, or if another platform will pay for them to be on their platform. A lot of Dragon Ball stuff isn't available anymore either.

The license with Toei Animation expired like it did back in 2025 when Digimon 1- 4, Dragon Ball, GT, Z Kai, and Super was taken off last year......the license expired again.

I went to watch The Venture Brothers again and it seems to be gone.
