On April 7th, original cards drawn by a stellar group of artists for the trading card game "ONE PIECE Card Game" (BANDAI) based on Eiichiro Oda's popular manga "ONE PIECE" were released. Tabata Yuuki from "Black Clover" has drawn Monkey D. Luffy, Saeki Shun from "Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma" has drawn Portgas D. Ace, and Demizu Posuka from "The Promised Neverland" has drawn Sabo. Issue 19 of "Weekly Shonen Jump" (Shueisha), which will be released on the same day, will feature a special gift of a set of original cards (with original mount) for all applicants.
The service is available to all applicants who purchase either the print or digital version of Weekly Shonen Jump, and the application deadline is April 21. The applicant fee is 1,540 yen.
"ONE PIECE" depicts the adventures of Luffy, a young man with a straw hat whose limbs can stretch like rubber, as he and his companions journey across the open seas in an attempt to become the King of the Pirates. The series began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump (Shueisha) in 1997. The TV anime has been broadcast on Fuji TV from 9:30 a.m. on Sundays for about 18 years, but has now moved to 11:15 p.m. on Sundays, which has become a hot topic.
