The Post-War Arc

One Piece is Toei Animation's adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's manga and has aired on Fuji Television since 1999. It follows Monkey D. Luffy, whose body has the properties of rubber, and his Straw Hat Pirates on their search for the treasure known as the One Piece.

After the war at Marineford, the story pauses to look back. Episode 493, "Luffy and Ace! The Story of How the Brothers Met!", begins a flashback to Luffy's childhood with his brothers Ace and Sabo. The post-war arc continues through the rest of this set.

The collection ends with episode 516, "Luffy's Training Begins! To the Place We Promised in 2 Years!", as Luffy starts training with Rayleigh. Episode 492, a crossover special with Toriko, is not part of this set, which is why it starts at 493.

Bonus Features

Extras include "Inside Look: The Shot Heard 'Round the World", "One Piece Outtakes: Part 1" and commentaries on episodes 495, 503, 506 and 515.

The English dub stars Colleen Clinkenbeard as Luffy, Christopher Sabat as Zoro, Luci Christian as Nami, Sonny Strait as Usopp and Eric Vale as Sanji. Mayumi Tanaka voices Luffy in Japanese.
