One Piece

One Piece is a Japanese manga series by Eiichiro Oda, serialized since 1997 in Weekly Shōnen Jump. The story follows Monkey D. Luffy and his crew, the Straw Hat Pirates, as they search for the legendary treasure, “One Piece,” to make Luffy the King of the Pirates. It has been adapted into various media, including an anime series by Toei Animation, films, and a live-action series by Netflix in 2023.

The series is praised for its storytelling, world-building, and humor, making it one of the best-selling manga series in history with over 516 million copies sold globally. The plot is set in a world governed by the World Government, with pirates and revolutionaries challenging its authority. The world features mystical elements like Devil Fruits and Haki, which grant characters supernatural powers.

Eiichiro Oda, inspired by pirates and works like Dragon Ball, initially planned for the series to last five years, but due to its popularity, it has continued much longer. Oda has outlined the series’ end, though the story has progressed at a slower pace. In 2022, Oda announced the manga would begin its final saga, preparing for the series’ conclusion.
