The Impel Down Arc

One Piece, Toei Animation's series based on Eiichiro Oda's manga, has aired on Fuji Television since 1999. It follows Monkey D. Luffy, whose body has the properties of rubber, and his quest for the treasure called the One Piece. These episodes first aired in Japan from late 2009 into 2010.

The set opens with episode 422, "A Deadly Infiltration! The Underwater Prison Impel Down!" With help from Boa Hancock, Luffy sneaks into the prison, where he crosses paths with old foes and allies such as Buggy, Mr. 3 and Mr. 2 Bon Clay. Warden Magellan, whose breath is poisonous, stands in his way, and Emporio Ivankov of the Kamabakka Kingdom steps in to treat Luffy's poisoning.

Episodes 426 to 429 are "Little East Blue", a short film tie-in story that pauses the prison break. The collection ends with episode 445, "The Dangerous Encounter! Blackbeard and Shiryu of the Rain!"
