One Piece has seen the Straw Hat Pirates moving across several major environments within the world of the Grand Line over the course of the decades of history within Eiichiro Oda’s titanic story, but the one-hundredth volume of the manga has helped bring Luffy into a brand new locale, outer space. In partnering with the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency, aka JAXA, the Shonen franchise of One Piece gave us a live broadcast that saw Luffy appearing alongside Japanese astronauts who were currently visiting the International Space Station as a part of the Kibo Discover Project.
Thank you all for watching the English simultaneous streaming of JAXA × ONE PIECE LIVE Broadcast from space! It was a blast! For those of you who missed it, beware! Subtitles will be added on the YouTube archive, hopefully sometime nextweek🌏💫 https://t.co/do8J7d0cmn #WeAreONE https://t.co/FAuhI8Bx5p pic.twitter.com/Gv2ikqJBLi
