One Piece x SpongeBob will be coming to the United States and Canadian McDonald’s locations, according to a recent update on social media. The major campaign is set to roll out in August.
Bikini Bottom is located somewhere in the Grand Line, at least for this new collaboration between One Piece, SpongeBob SquarePants, and McDonald’s.

This collaboration will likely be released after the Hello Kitty x Godzilla one.
