One Piece, Volume 1 by Eiichiro Oda6/10/2023 Also, every time the gum-gum fruit is mentioned - and it’s mentioned a lot - it’s called a “secret treasure” but literally everyone knows what it is so I don’t get what’s “secret” about it? They just had it because Luffy needed to eat it and get those powers and so have these adventures - it’s that contrived. I have no idea why the pirates who had the gum-gum fruit in their possession didn’t eat it immediately and turn into Stretch Armstrong themselves given that doing so has literally no downsides. But, like every other character here, he doesn’t have much of a personality either. There’s nothing more boring than a main character who is as invincible as he is, who can effortlessly overcome any obstacle in his way and has no weaknesses whatsoever. Which seems unlikely until he accidentally eats the gum-gum fruit and basically turns into Mister Fantastic from the Fantastic Four, becoming invulnerable to swords and bullets and seemingly everything, as well as strong, in the bargain! He’s gotta assemble a crew and he’s questing for the fabled treasure, One Piece. One Piece is the best-selling manga of all time - and, going by this first book, I have no idea why!Ī kid called Luffy wants to grow up to become king of pirates.
