One Piece, One Piece: How the Anime Started

What is One Piece?

The first episode of One Piece was released on February 7, 1999, and was called “Watashi no Waifu One Piece.” While it had no proper title in the original publication, it was made to be known as the first episode of One Piece. However, One Piece isn’t just one anime series, but an entire library of manga. So, we’ll be referring to the series as “One Piece” throughout this blog. The first chapter of One Piece was published in the February 1997 issue of Shueisha’s shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump. It was created by Eiichiro Oda, who is also the author of all of the chapters that follow. One Piece is a pirate-themed shōnen manga series that follows the exploits of Monkey D. Luffy, a young boy who sets out on an adventure to find the One Piece of a map that reveals the location of the most valuable treasure in the world: the legendary Golgo 13. The series is famous for its action and comedy, as well as its many references to other works of popular culture, such as movies and video games.

So, it can be read more like this: 右利きポケモン “Yūrikigeki Pokémon” which means “Right-handed Pokémon.” This is a reference to Luffy’s pirate crew being comprised entirely of right-handed people. Another common reading of the Japanese title is ワンピース Wā Pīsu, meaning “One Piece.” This is another common reading of the Japanese title, but the first reading is generally used. This is the most common reading used in the anime and manga.

Why Do Anime Names Have Different Readings in Japanese?

Japanese culture is very focused on being respectful and being a good person. It’s important to show your respect for things by saying their name correctly. For example, you wouldn’t say “My house is red.” You would say “My house is red/blue.” In Japanese, they would also be confused if you entered a grocery store with a sign that said “Potatoes.” You should say “Potatoes” or “Kotasu” in Japanese! So, when it comes to anime and manga, names are meant to be respectful. These names are often based on myths and legends of Japanese folklore, but the kanji and rōmaji are often changed to be more respectful for English speakers.
