Embark on an epic journey of adventure and discovery with the One Piece Box Set: East Blue and Baroque Works (Volumes 1-23 with Premium) by Eiichiro Oda- an unparalleled manga series that delivers an action-packed and emotional story with a larger than life cast of characters and a premium edition that includes exclusive artwork and other bonus materials. The ending is fine and I like Vivi staying in Alabasta not because she's completely useless but because having a character tag along for a while without needing to join the crew is a really good idea. The Buggy chronicles starts to make Buggy a compelling character, the Koby story is pretty important and interesting, the Django story is fun and a riot, and the Hachi one is sweet and surprisingly hits well. Eiichiro Oda ( 尾田栄一郎, Oda Eiichirō) is a Japanese manga artist, best known as the creator of the manga and anime One Piece.While Dragon Ball's emphasis was almost entirely on strength, the characters in OP have some (ridiculous and) imaginative powers by virtue of 'Devil Fruits'. Previous chapters has been good at rapidly expanding the crew but their battle vs the Fishmen pirates is where everyone gets a chance to shine and their comradery is truly put on blast. I love Chopper, but I think Wapol is super annoying and not a threat at all, so the tension is really weird and it feels like Wapol should've been an enemy even before Arlong.

But his life changed when he accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Fruit, an enchanted Devil Fruit that gave him the ability to stretch like rubber.Volumes 10,11, and 12 have a lot of action including scenes where Luffy's crew fights the fish-men because they lied and betrayed Nami.

If something unexplained pops up in a earlier story, it almost always gets picked back up at a much later date. Years later, Luffy sets off on his quest to find the "One Piece," said to be the greatest treasure in the world. Volumes 4,5 and 6 were about Luffy going on an adventure to find his crewmates, in which he becomes friendly with Sanji, who worked in a restaurant.Finally the strawhats enter the grand line and meet Laboon (and vivi i guess) which is a really cute short arc that obviously has a special place in any fan's heart.

Sets up Coby and Helmeppo casually, the Marines as a if not corrupt then definitely doubtful organization and Zoro as an absolute badass. Especially cause this series relies really heavily on character interactions, so introducing nee people for the crew to interact with is always pleasant. W. is pretty awesome and I like Luffy losing over and over again but Crocodile not bothering to properly finish him off because he underestimates him. While at first I found the manga to be simply okay, the more I read, the more I grew to like it and while I found the first few arcs to be generic shounen (2 to 3 stars worthy), the Baroque Works arc was absolutely phenomenal and earned the current 5 stars!Although I always hear that the beginning is pretty rough to reread, I actually enjoyed most of this a lot. A note on style - while I initially thought that Oda's study of action movements is inferior to Toriyami's spectacularly neat Dragon Ball, I realised quite embarrassingly late that he has experimented with perspectives in intelligent ways, so a single action could probably be composed of 3 or 4 PoVs. Great themes, great scenes/character moments, the excellent Zoro/Mohawk fight, the Nami developments…this is the first time stakes really get raised. It’s a transitional arc though so it never really transcends that status and Buggy/Alvida are still on the lame side. And when we do reach the point where we are several adventures in, our main characters have changed in meaningful and powerful ways.
