Now I am introducing the best manga in the world to you! One Piece is personally the best manga and anime that I have ever experienced in my life. Mr. Eiichiro Oda (尾田 栄一郎) is the brilliantly talented artist who has written and illustrated this magical and extraordinary story. The story begins with the King of the Pirates Gol. D. Roger who announces the great treasure, One Piece, is there available for anyone who finds it just before his death and therefore countless pirates are so eager to find this treasure.
The main character Monkey. D. Luffy is a young pirate who wants to become the next King of the Pirates. He finds a crew of talented members and set up the Straw Hat Pirates. The members are: Roronoa Zoro theSwordsman; Sanji the chef; Nami the Navigator and Weather forecaster; Usopp the sniper;Tony Tony Chopper the doctor; Nico Robin the archaeologist; Franky the shipwright and finally Brook the skeleton musician. Within the crew, Luffy, Chopper, Robin and Brook have eaten a fruit called Devil fruit which is believed to be the mysterious power of the ocean and once they have consumed the fruit, they will never be able to swim but they get some amazing powers from that. In the case Luffy ate the Paramecia-type Gum-Gum Fruit and turns into a rubber man; Chopper who was originally a reindeer but accidentally ate the Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit and becomes a human- like creature; Robin ate the Paramecia-type Flower-Flower Fruit that enable her to grow any body parts in anywhere; Brook was a special one who ate the Paramecia-type Revive-Revive Fruit before his death, nothing happen when he was alive but his soul went back to his body when he die and now he has another life in the body of skeleton. Every devil fruit is unique and they can be categorised into three class: Paramecia-type (changing the body mechanism), Zoan-type (contain an animal's features)and Logia-type ( become an organic substance for instance water and lighting)
examples of the Logia-type! from top to bottom, left to right are:smoke, fire, sand, thunder, frost, black hole, light, lava and smudge.
ate a Gum-gum fruit and...
turn into a rubber man!
The crew has been through a lot of big event that amazed the world with their great power. Their fame grows bigger as they sail along the sea and getting closer to One Piece. One of the best thing in One Piece is the main characters have bad times and not like the typical manga or comic, the hero wins every time. When Luffy loses his brother, he was extremely upset and nearly die but he was supported by the friendship and his belief which enable him to get through all the pain and bad memories. I really appreciate Luffy's personality, he is silly and funny, I may say no brainer. However, once he has made up his mind, nothing can stop him, not even he got so injured or facing death.
Monkey. D. Luffy the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, bright red top and the distinguish Straw hat. Brave, silly and lively that attract a lot of good people but also always get himself into troubles.
I will use amazing to describe the plot and storyboard that are unique and bold. One Piece is one of the best known manga globally which has already released in different languages, has video games, movies and light novels. I think the success of One Piece allows Oda to have more inspiration and motivation to produce a better manga he wants. The fans always believe that there are a lot of hidden messages that reflect problems we facing in nowadays society and how we should get over them like the main characters with friendship and belief. What is more, I like the character design of every character in this story because everyone of them have a story behind and their appearance matches the past or can show a lot of personality.
The original character designs of Sanji, Robin and Franky. I do not like Sanji in curly hair, as a chef I think he needs to look more sophisticated. I can not imagine Robin in short hair which long hair suits her personality perfectly.
Talking about character, Robin has a complicated background and secret identity. Nico Robin known as the devil child comes from Ohara which was an island full of talented archaeologist. She learns how to decipher the writings on the ancient stones called Poneglyph ( In the world of One Piece, there are 20 years without any records or historical facts left due to the conspiracy of the world government )when she was eight which are scattered around the world. The world government wants to stop people from knowing truth of the past, therefore they destroys the whole island and Robin is the only people left from that crisis. Since that day, she has been chasing by the world government while searching for more stones. Oda creates Robin in a spy-like woman full of mystery at first, she always wears black and leather clothes which can makes her personality stands out from the rest of the crew. The more the crew get through, the greater the trust has built, Robin has totally depended on other members and disarms her protection which she dresses differently and changes the state of mind.
One Piece is still releasing weekly so I highly recommand everyone should read or watch it! The story is very touching and exciting. It makes me want to set up a pirates crew and sail to explore the world with my trusty friends!
At the end, enjoy the latest opening of One Piece!
