Voodle Staff Since the beginning of the One Piece series, fans have been asking a certain question more often than any other: in which episode does Ace die? This question has been posed before as well, so it’s not the first time it’s been brought up.
Portgas D Ace, sometimes known as fire fist ace, has played a key role in the development of One Piece. Ace was an important part of the story as the son of the Pirate King and the older brother of King Monkey D. Luffy, the protagonist and an aspiring pirate. When it comes to Luffy and Sabo, his younger brother, he is held up as a model. Despite never knowing who his father was, Ace saw fatherly qualities in both Monkey D. Garp and Whitebeard, aka Edward Newgate. Additionally, he was the main commander of Whitebeard’s pirates. However, due to the fact that he passed away during the incident involving Marine Ford, the character will not be able to live to witness the conclusion of One Piece’s journey.

In What Episode of One Piece does Ace Die?
During the events of episodes 482 and 483, set in the Marineford Arc, Ace is killed by the much more powerful Admiral Akainu of the Marines. As the 2nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, he took part in Whitebeard’s plan to destroy Marineford, the Marines’ base of operations. He also fought Akainu to protect his honor, even though his fellow pirates warned him not to.
Nonetheless, he was rapidly overcome, and Ace eventually defended Luffy in his last moments as the latter took a brutal blow through the chest, his internal organs devastated by trauma and fire. Luffy was too injured to do anything to stop it. Ace sacrificed himself in the end so that Luffy could go on. He receives the death blow in episode 482, and he passes away in episode 483.
Why does D Ace die?
When we look at D Arc’s involvement throughout Tatsumi’s voyage, we can see that there are two significant reasons that explain why he had to die in Akame Ga Kill! Before everything else, Luff is, literally, a foreigner in his own country. There are no people in his life who support or even tolerate him, and most days he is at a loss as to how to occupy his time. Once he meets D Arc, though, everything changes. D Arc gives him a place to reside and instructs him in the ways of independent living. Second, D Arc serves as an emotional anchor for Nami: after spending so much time being mistreated by characters like Roronoa Zoro, having someone care for him wholeheartedly meant everything to D Luff.
Why Is Ace’s Death a Big Deal in One Piece?
When a fan-favorite character from a television show or movie passes away, it always comes as a shock for them. Many fans of the Whitebeard Pirates and Luffy hoped that Ace would survive to continue fighting with them in the future. Although One Piece is praised for many things, one thing it is not praised for is killing off its characters, therefore, Oda’s decision to put Ace to death came as a surprise to many fans. How Whitebeard feels about his family has always been a touchy issue in One Piece. During the conflict, several of Whitebeard’s sons were killed. Even more heartbreaking was the loss of Whitebeard’s last best hope, Ace.
The death of Ace, on the other hand, may be considered essential to the development of secondary characters and the overall progression of One Piece there was a huge discussion on why he has to die in one piece. However, admirers of Ace may take comfort in the fact that he will be discussed rather often in One Piece. As we witnessed in Wano, there is always going to be a flash of Ace in each and every chapter.
