This young man dreams of becoming the King of the Pirates and embarks on a voyage gathering new shipmates as they navigate their way around the world on an epic adventure. He has a distinctive scar under his left eye. He possesses the power of the Gomu Gomu no Mi and his limbs stretch like rubber. Luffy is the main character of One Piece. Luffy a.k.a “Straw Hat Luffy”, “Straw Hat” These ceremonies are all on YouTube and are delightful and quaint as hell.1. (Long story short: Oda’s home prefecture had a horrible earthquake, and he donated a bunch of money to the relief fund, so Kumamoto Prefecture commissioned bronze statues of all the Straw Hats as a thank you. There will be other festivities in the One Piece Day stream as well, including the unveiling of a bronze Jinbe statue in Kumamoto Prefecture. Part of it ( part!) will be streamed, if you can rally yourself to be awake at 4:50 AM EST. The film will be premiering at the One Piece Day festival this weekend at the Budokan. (I played the demo-excitement is warranted.) A new film centering partially around Shanks, the cool pirate from Chapter 1 who we’ve barely seen since, is coming out in just a couple weeks in Japan, and in October in the USA and Canada. The series’ first-ever excursion into JRPGs is coming out later this year. One Piece has not skimped on celebrations for its 25th birthday. Before I would wonder what the hell she could be talking about, she followed up, “I started One Piece. “You made a really big impact on my life,” she said, out of nowhere. A year after I caught up, I was chatting with an acquaintance I hadn’t seen in years. Since it’s One Piece‘s big birthday, I’m going to take this spot to shamelessly convince you to either start watching or reading it (reading it is faster). This time, I kept on-and then the pandemic happened, and One Piece became my lifeline.
I hopped on again in fall 2019, when I was about to go to Japan again. (That’s arguably because the infamous 4Kids royally messed up the initial dub, squandering the series’ spread to the West for a good decade at least.) I made it through Arlong Park, but life occurred and I lost track.
#ONE PIECE CHARACTER SERIES#
I began watching in 2016, because I was about to go to Japan for the first time and began hearing about this series that was absurdly popular over there that, previously, I’d never even heard of. I was an incredibly late convert to the series. Since I began writing at The Mary Sue, I have essentially made it my mission to spread the gospel of One Piece, well-endowed ladies and all. (It’s true! It’s a wild alternate universe to behold). Garp is in the Navy, not Luffy’s pirate hero. But Jmarked the official start of the One Piece we all know and love-the One Piece that has Nami, and where Monkey D.
#ONE PIECE CHARACTER MOVIE#
Version 1 has its own movie ( One Piece: Romance Dawn Story), and the second was adapted into episode 907 of the anime. If you, like me, love a good work in progress and are curious about these iterations, you can find them online. Two iterations of a potential series featuring Luffy, entitled Romance Dawn (which is also the name of Chapter 1), had appeared previously in Weekly Shonen Jump. How was anyone to anticipate the phenomenon-and, hell, the masterpiece-One Piece would become?Ĭhapter 1 of One Piece wasn’t the first time Shonen Jump readers had seen Monkey D. After all, the mangaka, Eiichiro Oda, was quite sure his tale would only last five years. If you had told anyone, the mangaka included, that boy would be entering the final saga of his adventure 25 years and over 1,000 chapters later, having inspired nearly 20 films, a (now closed) indoor theme park, countless video games, a gigantic international fanbase, and even a gym … I’m pretty sure they would’ve stared at you, wide-eyed, mouth agape. It began with a rambunctious young boy giving himself a scar under the eye to prove to a particularly cool pirate that he was tough enough to join his crew. On July 19, 1997, the first chapter of a new manga debuted in Shonen Jump.
