The grandaddy of all currently publishing shonen manga, and the bestselling manga series of all time: what more accolades can one heap upon One Piece? How about this: an astonishing twenty years and 85 volumes in, the story of wannabe pirate king Monkey D. Luffy and his fellow misfits about the good ship Merry Go has lost none of its oddball charm, even as the plotting grows ever more complex and self-referential, rewarding those who have been following since the beginning or reread each volume multiple times. It’s hard to say what’s more appealing, the larger-than-life characters, or the sheer nuttiness of the anything-goes world they inhabit. There’s no telling when Oda will reach the end of this journey, but we’ll be with him every step of the way.
