Printed One Piece manga volumes, representing the Japanese comics format.

Clue explained

One Piece is manga: a Japanese comic series, originally created for print rather than as an animated show. Creator Eiichiro Oda built its adventure around Monkey D. Luffy and his pirate crew searching for the legendary One Piece treasure. Manga is often serialized in installments before being collected into books, and many editions preserve the original right-to-left page order. One Piece later also became a popular anime.
