'One Piece' Babes Get Lingerie, Bikini Line; Eiichiro Oda Reveals Favorite Character But It's Not Luffy
Japanese company Peach John is collaborating with "One Piece" for a range of lingerie and bikini inspired from prominent women in the anime. Series creator Eiichiro Oda has revealed his favorite character in the franchise but it's not the main character Luffy as everyone expects.
In this collaboration, there will be a swimwear set based off of both Nami and Robin and a lingerie set based off on Hancock and Shirahoshi. According to ComicBook, the "One Piece" lingerie and bikini sets range from $60 to $100 each and will be released in Japan starting April 12 online or in Peach John's store.
The outlet adds that there will be more "One Piece" clothing set in the future. Peach John teased that there will be lounging clothes based off of the male characters from the anime including Luffy, Chopper, Bon Clay, Sabo and many more. These future sets are a wearable option for the both female and male fans of the anime.
"One Piece" is one of the most popular manga running and the anime series based off on it has more than 700 episodes. This year, the franchise is celebrating its 20th anniversary in July.
In an interview, series creator Eiichiro Oda has revealed his favorite character in "One Piece." While he is a big fan of Luffy and most of the Straw Hat pirates, his most favorite one isn't any of them. Oda revealed in an interview with "Dragon Ball's" Akira Toriyama that his favorite is Gaimon.
Gaimon is a former pirate who was shown as someone who has been stuck in a pirate chest for 20 years. He was featured in the earlier episodes of the anime and in the earlier years of the manga. Eiichiro Oda says that he thinks Gaimon is a great character despite his predicament.
