Eiichiro 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.

It's getting better and better. Things started to fall into place, i finally feel for the characters ,love'em and the story got even more exciting and addicting. It's like "Now.. the real journey begins!" Haha
One thing i love about this manga is it cracked me up all the time. 😂

I can sense that this manga series will become one of my favorites for sure. 😋👍🏻

One thing I really have to applaud One Piece for, here, is pacing: we've just finished up with the biggest and most climactic story arc in the series, that's held our attention for ever since they first came on Grand Line, so it's time to chill out a bit, lower the stakes, start up a new adventure in slow-mo. There's a lot to like in solving a seemingly unrelated sea mystery, in shipwrecks and diving, in a small lawless island with the authentic pirate atmosphere. Diabolical masterminds give way to small-time crooks: not only does it let us breathe, it's also an opportunity to show just how far the Straw Hats have come since the journey began, how much they've grown, and how powerful they've become in the grand scheme of things.

Plenty of great little jokes and gags to laugh at, too. And weird new characters to also laugh at. And Bellamy to laugh at soon.

And yet it still manages to set things up for later. There's a new big story in the horizon, and though it hasn't really gotten started yet, you can hear it rumbling. Some of the things it sets up for later still, such as a chance meeting at a saloon...

With the addition of Nico Robin to Luffy's crew, you might wonder if the Nakama is finally complete. Well, as far as I know, it is. When I was younger, I always thought Luffy's crew felt complete when Nico Robin joined.

After the events in Alubarna, Luffy and his crew embark on new adventures filled with thrilling challenges.

Reading One Piece in these volumes becomes even more entertaining. The story and character development are truly amazing, making each new chapter a delight. The evolving dynamics and deepening bonds among the crew members add layers of excitement, keeping readers eagerly turning the pages.

One Piece, Vol. 24 continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next ten chapters (217–226) of the on-going manga series.

This tankōbon begins the Jaya Arc. Indebted to Monkey D. Luffy for rescuing her, Nico Robin joins the Straw Hat Pirates. On their first adventure, an old ship falls from the sky. Rummaging through some of its remains, while dealing with a rival salvaging crew led by the monkey-like Masira, and nearby monstrous sea creatures, the Straw Hats discover the fallen ship has come from Skypiea, an island high in the sky.

Unsure of how to reach it, the Straw Hats visit a nearby port on the island of Jaya. There they meet Bellamy, a pirate who looks down on Luffy, and mocks his dreams of becoming Pirate King. Luffy, who had promised Nami not to fight in the town, allows himself to be beaten up and bullied by Bellamy.

The Straw Hats then proceed to another part of Jaya to meet a man who might have a lead on how to reach Skypiea. However, they must first get past Masira's brother Shōjō and his crew.

This tankōbon is written and illustrated by Eiichirō Oda. For the most part, it is written and illustrated rather well. The crew tearfully leaves Nefeltari Vivi behind and continues on their journey with Ms. All Sunday, aka Nico Robin, joining as an archaeologist. When a ship inexplicably falls from the sky and the Log Pose begins pointing up, they go to the island of Jaya for information on "Sky Island". There, they encounter Bellamy, a pirate who is heralding a "New Age" where pirates do not dream, and a man named Mont Blanc Cricket.

All in all, One Piece, Vol. 24 is a wonderful continuation to a series that seems really intriguing and I can't wait to read more.

Cierre de Arabasta y principio del arco de la isla del cielo 🙊 skypia jajjaj tenía cositas que comentar pero siempre se terminan olvidando 😅

Bueno partir por Robin, he de reconocer que las veces anteriores cuando ví/leí está parte Robin no me agradó incluso aunque luego conocí su historia no me terminaba de convencer como personaje 👉🏼👈🏼 pero en esta ocasión, desde la parte en que dice que no tiene motivos por los que vivir o cuando dice que lo único que quería era conocer la verdadera historia, es que me emocioné. Ahora la miro con otros ojos jajaj después su pasión por la arqueología y en fin todo eso, estoy ansiando llegar a water seven 🥰

Luego por el contrario a Robin, tengo un acercamiento a Barbanegra y uyyy que le tengo rencor a ese personaje, es que no lo aguanto 😒

Bellamy lo tengo metido en la cabeza pero no puedo recordar por qué 🥲 y mi hermano no me quiere decir xd

Y pues eso más que nada, ahora vamos a dónde Criquet aunque no recuerdo si se escribía así o no 😅🙈

So intrigued by Robin and her decision to join the Straw Hats. I think she's a great addition to the crew, and I can already predict so many arguments between her and Nami. And she really needed a good adversary instead of Sanji fawning over her all the time (and I love Sanji)!

A fun beginning to the Skypeia arc! The mystery of an island in the sky! I appreciate the build-up to this island instead of just showing up there. Reminds me a bit of what Oda did with Alabasta, but instead of political intrigue now we have a mystery!

JAYA ARC - PART 1
1. sky islands!! new things yayy, love learning new things about this world!!

2. chopper still hasn't learned how to peek around corners, and that's cute. i hope he never learns how to

3. somebody with a little uwu-face on their overalls cannot be an evil person...right? (looking at you, masira)

4. realising how much robin was needed on this ship. the others are all lunatics. poor nami and zoro

5. bellamy looks like an overgrown teen.

6. oh my god. the panel of the entire bar bursting out into condescending laughter after nami asks for directions to the sky island is actually brilliant. it's like one of those old 17th hundred paintings depicting a large gathering of people, doing all sorts of things. this is actually such an amazing caricature of all things ridiculousness.

7. i wonder why luffy said not to fight bellamy and allowed zoro and himself to be abused like that. i wonder, had nami gotten touched by bellamy, if luffy also would have held back like that.

8. if i had a nickel for every time that i see salvaging pirates that look like monkeys, i would have two.

9. oh. the monkeys are brothers. nevermind. that explains the origin of my two nickels.

Finally, I have some time to continue my re-read of this gem. What I remember Skypia arc was not one of my favourites. Nevertheless, the great imagination of Oda is starting to show. We meet humanoid Apes, weird ships, sky Islands and of course a proper bully Bellamy.

It is very funny and satisfying to read something like this if you know what will happen in like 50 volumes. Oda has great character work and in here he starts to show the bigger threads. Bellamy, sky Island and most importantly Blackbeard.

I can't wait to dive into in back once more!

Clueless as to how to reach the mysterious sky island, the crew encounters odd monkey-like seafarers and other pirates who mock their goal.

Nothing stands in their way to this day and once they set their mind on something, they clearly do everything in their means to achieve it, and this volume proves it.

Mostly serving as an introduction to new faces, things are about to get more interesting.

Yours truly,

Robin joins the crew and as they are going forward they learn of this Sky Island and find some ship and legend continues. They meet Magira Pirates, have a face off in a bar against Bellamy Hyena and his crew while at the same time meeting Shoujou PIRATES king Shoujou and seems like they have to face off against him next! It was a good quick read and deepens the mystery about the SKY ISLAND!

Seriously, who choses to sail anywhere, when you can sail to a freaking Sky Island?!

So to say it in the words of great sailsman Luffy: "Rudder up!"

This volume happens to possess my favourite scene in all of One Piece: Teach's speech to Luffy on the street. Best scene in the series to this day. Blackbeard is also my second favourite character.

Alabasta is in the rearview.

This morning I followed the Straw Hat Pirates as they move forward on the journey through the Grand Line.

The log pose has an interesting direction for the new island it has locked on to.... UP

Luffy has decided this must be accomplished, so the crew heads to Jaya to find some upward navigational help.

Unfortunately the only help they find so far is the kind that rewards you with a few knocks to the head...

I know Jaya is a small set up arc, but man, is it an exciting one. I remember the first time I was going through this arc I couldn't hold my enthusiasm and just wanted to keep going until I knew how the fuck they would go to a sky island; the archaeologist moment Robin has with the ship wreck is something I'd like to see more, even beyond the Poneglyphs; and the interactions with Bellamy and Blackbeard were freaking spot on.

Bueno, tomo de transición. Parece que el cambio de traducción continúa, sin terminar de decidirse entre utilizar términos en inglés (log pose) o en español (brújula grabadora). Qué triste tener que parar de leer para buscar en google palabras en inglés que no conozco. Peor aún, comerme un spoiler por tener que googlear. Éxitos 10/10.

Lo importante: me lo he pasado muy bien leyéndolo, a pesar de la transición. La parte con el gorila es divertida, Nico Robin es muy carismática, me pregunto qué traman Zoro y Luffy...
