About the author
Eiichiro Oda
2,102 books4,868 followersEiichiro 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.
As a child, Oda was inspired by Akira Toriyama's works and aspired to become a manga artist. He recalls that his interest in pirates was probably sparked by the popular TV animation series titled Vicky the Viking. He submitted a character named Pandaman for Yudetamago's classic wrestling manga Kinnikuman. Pandaman was not only used in a chapter of the manga but would later return as a recurring cameo character in Oda's own works.

Something I don't like about One Piece is the reuse of old villains.
Good thing is they return for one or two episodes, so usually they don't stay for long.
But in the manga it felt longer to me than the episodes.
This volume marked the end of the fishmen arc.
I am not sure how long the smoker part will be, but it shouldn't be an arc.
I think it's just a story in between arcs.
I could be mistaken though, because not only do we have Smoker who seems a suitable foe for Luffy.
But we also have his assistant who is a good opponent to Zorro.
And we also have the lion fight with his master for Usopp and Nami.
So only Sanji would be without a fight.
As the team grows bigger, the creator will feel the need to always come up with separate challenges to each member of the team, which honestly is another issue with One Piece it just prolongs everything until it breaks at the seams and makes you quit the entire series.
So, we will see if it's any different reading the manga.
At the very least, now I have all the time for reading and no time at all for anime watching.

Luffy is finally a wanted pirate with a huge bounty on his head! Doesn't he look happy?
Finishes up the Nami shark people arc. Starts an arc where they go to rougeisland, which is where the last King of the Pirates was both born and executed. We also see the return of two old faces!

When I was younger, I thought that Loguetown was a corruption of Japanese lettering and that it was meant to be a Roguetown, as in, a town of rogues. But nowadays I get it fully. It's a place of epilogue of Roger's story, and now, prologue of Luffy's. We're done with East Blue, with beating some small-time crooks and gaining some crewmates and of course with the very first bounty, and here the story really kicks off.
There really was a lot to like here. Arlong's defeat was another one of those iconic moments, but it had nothing on Luffy grinning ear to ear at his own execution. That one moment pretty succinctly defined his character, and in retrospect, set down some interesting things for the future.

Last volume on the East Blue Arc.
Arlong Park is destroyed and our crew is headed to Loguetown, the town where the Pirate King was born and also executed. This is where we have our second encounter with Buggy the Clown, it isn't a fun one once again.
Luffy's smile seconds before his execution ... cute.

I enjoyed these mellower chapters that came after the volumes-long battle with Arlong and co.

Luffy is determined to not only beat Arlong to a pulp, but also wipe away anything that reminds Nami of her past. Oda ends the arc on a high note. His art pulls off that expert chaotic containment, as Luffy finishes his hard fought battle. Nami's reaction , seeing Luffy stand on the rubble of the castle that inprisoned her life, is filled with relief and joy.
Oda begins a trend, around this point, of major world building that takes place between arcs. Luffy gets his first bounty, which only ammuses the rubber man. We also see familiar faces meeting up to celebrate his new found fame. Small moments like this provide some of the best moments in the series.
Once the arc concludes the Straw Hats are ready to finally head for the Grand Line, with Loguetown being a pit stop. Luffy begins to get excited as he learns Gold Roger was born in this town, as well as died here. Each Straw Hat shops for much needed supplies and we meet some new faces. The stern Captain Smoker cant really be called a villain but he does play a semi antagonist in this new sub arc. The other character, Tashigi, throws an interesting curve ball at Zoro, but sadly this never plays out to be anything important.
The volume ends with typical Luffy getting into trouble and familiar foes coming back for revenge. We see Luffy's luck (sometimes called plot armor) get him out of said trouble, but this only gives Luffy's destiny a sense of mystical intrigue.
Everything from story to art just feels high quality, as Oda never wavers on his skill. The Arlong Park arc concludes with high octane action and feels kicking moments. The Loguetown sub arc begins with fun jaunts by the crew and quickly ends with an exciting plot of revenge. The return of familar foes is refreshing, with Oda showing us he never forgets his creations. New faces deliver fun characters with unique abilities and perspectives. With only one volume left, our favorite heroes begin to journey into the next main arc.

Amo este tomo, Nami nakama y loguetown <3 aunque creo que me gusta más en el anime, por las mini historias de los personajes en Loguetown y el viejito de la cantina que le cuenta a Luffy de Roger y toda la persecución de Smoker 💕
Me encanta Roger ❤ y Oda tan seco, dejando siempre pistas escondidas que al principio uno no ve.
Pd: aunque no me gusta que los villanos vuelvan a aparecer xd pinche Buggy, todo porque Oda te quiere xd

”Is there a doctor on your ship?”
”A doctor? That would be nice… but a musician should come first, right?
”Why a musician?
”Well, pirates sing, don’t they?
Oh, Luffy. He truly is one of a kind, and as a friend of mine said, “Luffy is as dumb as a stump, but once he decides you’re his friend, he’ll move the world for you.”
Accurate.

I give a special attention for this volume because:
1. There is an ending of an Arc story, of Arlong Pirate.
2. The light arc story, where protagonists resupply, I am fond of Roronoa buying swords scene. When Zoro was letting the fate/the sword decides whether he is destined to be the sowrd owner or not, I got small orgasm.

Se me había olvidado ya lo mucho que me gusta la saga de Arlon Park, no puedo ponerla ni un pero. Me encanta como Luffy logra liberar a Nami de las cadenas de sus pasado, y el final con todo el pueblo despidiéndose de ella después de que les haya robado las carteras y se haya hecho un tatuaje que represente a sus ``padres´´para suprimir la marca de la banda de Arlon. Y antes de este momento tan emblemático y bonito, todas las peleas que hay, destacando, por supuesto, el encuentro final entre Luffy y Arlong. En serio, porque tengo muchas ganas de continuar la historia, pero me da pena terminar esta saga.
Por otro lado, lo que es la trama en general sigue avanzando a pasos agigantados. El nombre de Luffy empieza a ser reconocido, ya que ha logrado su primera recompensa, lo que le señala ya por como una potencial amenaza. y no sabes tú bien como, esto es solo el principio... en estas, la banda llega a la entrada del Grand Line, en la ciudad de Loguetown donde nació y murió el Rey de los Piratas, legendario Gold Roger al que Luffy quiere emular. Las similitudes entre los dos se despliegan a lo largo de las páginas de este volumen, lo que da a esta mini saga un indudable aire de predestinación que va a más con la aparición de uno de mis personajes favoritos en la historia: Smoker, el cual va a ser un habitual en los siguientes tomos y que creo que es uno de los personajes mejor construidos de todo este manga en general.
En definitiva, me ha encantado este tomo.

One Piece is great fun to read. Characters are full of jokes and spirit is really good. The ten first volumes may feel like a series of marginally related short stories. Vol 11 solves that by bringing all key characters together and making their motives clear and simple. This is when action seriously begins.
My advice: read all 11 volumes and run buy some more ;)

Marathon buddy read with the siblings. The end of the Arlong fight and into the rivals intro. One of my favourite parts of the series is the bounties. I love the reactions every time.

The conclusion to the epic battle against Arlong. Luffy destroying the room that Nami lived in to free her! Also the team is setting sail for the grand line again, and we get to meet some old enemies.

Ótimo final de saga! E ótimo começo de outra ali em Loguetown, mas agora vou dar uma pausinha pra terminar as outras leituras 😌

Another excellent action-packed One Piece edition. Fun, hilarious and plenty of tension. I’m often left wondering how Luffy will escape his latest situation. Highly entertaining.

"Laugh? When faced with certain death....every man trembles in fear, however tough he is. Twenty-two years ago, another man laughed on that very spot. He was Gold Roger, King of the Pirates!!!"

The volume concludes the "Saw-Tooth" Arlong story arc by giving Luffy a saviour resolution in the eyes of Nami and the shackles she has been dragging around her whole life. The action sequence was insane and exactly what you'd expect from Luffy as he gets creative in the chaos he inflicts on the captain of the Fish-Man pirates.
The story then begins a transitory arc that sends Luffy and his crew to the Grand Line but first, they do a pit stop at Loguetown where new and old enemies are introduced and make a splendid spectacle as they spit out all of their motives.
Ending on a cliffhanger and one of the most improbable plot twists ever, the story is bound to get even more chaotic from here on out.

This was a tale of 2 halves: On one hand we FINALLY got away from Arlong and the fish-men, but on the other we have 2 pirate enemies back from previous volumes. It's only #11, how are we already bringing bad guys back? There was some better emotional beats in this one, which the series was desperately missing, to give it some grounding, but I may be at about the end of my patience for this series. The pace is glacial and it's light on the human element that makes it anything other than a cartoon.

'Okay. I'm in too good a mood to fight.'
Hoo boy! This was such a great end (and much more long-drawn than in the live action which I actually didn't mind because well, Arlong is just that strong) to the East Blue arc. Luffy knowing exactly what Nami needs and going ahead and doing it, ugh I love themm. Zoro waking up after the fact as everything comes crashing down around him, though LOL.
That Shanks cameo, ahh! He's so effortlessly fucking cool, no wonder Luffy is a fan.
The other half of the volume is set in Loguetown and OMG, can I just say this crew is so ridiculous and still somehow works so well? Zoro buying swords in a way that's more than fitting for him, Sanjilooking for girls to flirt with buying fish heh, Nami trying on fancy clothes only to not buy them and Usopp being the sensible one for once and purchasing supplies for the crew. Meanwhile, Luffy finding himself in a situation only Luffy can and laughing about it aldjlsf. THIS BOY.
Sidenote but I just love that Nami has the tangerine trees with her on the ship
Onto Chapter 100 and the Baroque Works arc, eeeep!

Honestamente las peleas no las disfruto tanto, pero me ha hecho mucha gracia en general que los carteles de otros piratas (como Arlong o Krieg) sean con fotos súper chungas de ellos, y la de Luffy sea esto: 😁. Lo adoro JAHSAH es el personaje más chill que conozco.
Y me ha encantado la parte donde existe la especie de duda de “¿por qué sonríe justo antes de morir?” y me da mucha curiosidad saber cómo se puede relacionar eso con lo de Gold Roger. Quizá lo del temporal tenga algo que ver, también.
Y lo de que Zoro se haya cogido la espada de la muerte trágica… Dios dame paciencia. Por favor que no se me muera, que es mi favorito😭
Ay y me han encantado los extras en los que salen los dibujos del barco. Adoro las preguntas y respuestas del SBS, pero honestamente prefiero que los mangakas pongan info complementaria. Me ha hecho gracia que Nami tenga una habitación para ella sola y los otro 4 estén ahí apretujados.

i mean, what can i say? i watched the netflix show first before getting into the manga and while the show is good, arlong is soooo much more evil in the manga. the show also didn't truly follow the timeline and left out scenes but that's expected. however, i really enjoyed this volume. you have some action and fight scenes, some banter, some tears and definitely hope. curious to see how it will continue and happy that the arlong story is finished (for now?). off to new adventures!
