The manga is leaps and bounds different and it expands on so much more while accomplishing a lot more. I currently own the entire series Plus all the side stories, the new volume for the new series, and the two doujinshii collections that were released. As you can tell I over this series. The story is great and feels authentic. The characters are wonderful and have many hilarious quips along with huge personality. The art is great, being able to convey the story that it is in with beautiful designs mixed in with other designs that seem to represent the characters themselves. Finally I would like to address the world building which is amazing, it feels sort of like the ghost in the she'll manga in how nozuma tamaka goes into all the intricate details of the world which he has created. Overall I give this a ten out of ten as it is my favorite manga thus far. ...more

TheI'm so glad that VIZ finally put together another boxset for One Piece, especially considering the number of volumes that are currently available. The bonus exclusive "Strong World" chapter is icing on the cake. Also love the fact that the box contains the newest printings, which have small labels printed on each of the spines with the corresponding arc. Can't recommend it enough for fans who want to continue their collection. Can't wait for the third box :)...more
