Anime Vice Anime/Manga News

Today Shonen Jump has announced to the world that the special manga volume, “Volume 0” to be released in One Piece’s newest film, “Strong World”, will receive an anime feature. Hurray! This prequel story will also be published in the 53rd issue of Shonen Jump as well; which means that basically everyone and their dog will be able to read this story in some way or form.

So this story will tell of the tale of the One Piece world 20 years ago, and will feature the struggle between the movie’s villain, “Gold Lion” Shiki and the Pirate King before he was the Pirate King, Gold Roger. This will be released on 3,000 limited-edition DVDs that will not be for sale, but given away. Why? Because One Piece should be given away for everyone to see.
