Japan’s box office has been dominated recently by an anime film, which has held the number one spot for eleven consecutive weeks — only the third film ever to achieve such a feat. However, considering that the film is a One Piece property, it’s not at all surprising.
In its 25-year-long run, the One Piece franchise has spawned an anime adaptation, books, theme park attractions, video games, plays, live-action series, and 15 theatrical films — including the upcoming One Piece Film: Red.

One Piece began as a Japanese shonen manga series by mangaka (comic artist/writer) Eiichiro Oda. Since starting its serialization within the popular magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump in 1997, One Piece is considered to be one of the most popular titles in manga history.
The fantasy action comedy series follows the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Monkey D. Luffy, a boy who gains the abilities of rubber after eating a mysterious devil fruit. He sets out towards the treacherous waters of the Grand Line and gathers a crew to fulfill his desire to be the next Pirate King, by searching for the treasure of the previous Pirate King: the “One Piece.”
