One Piece: East Blue 1-2-3

Husband love's it

I bought this manga book for my son who doesn't love to read, and he will actually put himself to bed early & wind down with this book. It's also helpful if your child likes the show, "Onepiece" and doesn't mind if it's in black & white. I will definitely get the next in the series since the storyline continues way beyond this book.

Good series, the anime is worth it.

This was my son’s favorite gift on his birthday and it got him to read more. Fantastic book.

The media could not be loaded. You have to flip it on the left side, but that’s OK if you use your left arm for reading books

This omnibus contains the first 3 volumes of One Piece, which are introductory volumes (Yes, 3 whole introductory volumes), not that it is bad or anything, One Piece is an extremely fun read, and things just get even better as the volumes go on!Enter Luffy, I'm sure we all know who he is and how he looks like, but just in case (And for the sake of wanting to write this), I will explain who he is! Monkey D. Luffy is an aspiring pirate king who at a young age vows to find the biggest treasure in the whole world, the One Piece! But before he sets sail, he eats the Gum-Gum fruit, allowing him to stretch every limb in his body (almost) infinitely.Luffys quirky design and actions make reading his dialogue very fun even for adult readers! I am 17 and I love One Piece, every thing about it is just genius in my opinion! There is enough going on in each panel to keep the attention of young readers as well. I am reading One Piece to my little sister, and even through the background stories and explanations, she really enjoys it!Luffy is constantly getting into trouble, and his inability to think before he acts results in comical outcomes! Other characters are constantly yelling and reprimanding Luffy, but he doesn't seem to care, he just punches when he wants!The art in One Piece is dated, but good. The manga was originally created in 1997, so the characters may seem a little too cartoony for traditional manga readers, but that is alright. Imperfections in the art MUST be forgiven due to old age.Overall, One Piece is a must read for ANY manga reader of any age, give the manga 3 volumes, then see if you like it or not. I have the Omnibus versions of 1-3, 4-6, and 7-9, and I just can't get enough! At some point though, you are going to want to buy the tankobon versions, they have better paper quality and look very slick on your bookshelf! I rate this a 5/5, the perfect read for any age

Loved the book and the anime would totally recommend

Looking forward to the whole series - great book designed like a traditional Japanese book
