In a forest bathed in soft sunlight, there is a mysterious tree that seems to be dripping with honey.
The trunk is covered with pale yellow-green moss and delicate flowers in pink, yellow, and orange.
On the other side of the trunk, from the pale purple ruins, the Straw Hat Pirates are walking along, engrossed in what appears to be a treasure hunt.
Luffy and Chopper are scaling the tree as they talk to a pink monkey wearing a crown—perhaps they are asking for directions.
Nami wears a concerned expression as she studies what looks like a map. Sanji is smiling as he gives a thumbs up, as if to say, “There’s no need to rush.” Behind Zoro, Usopp and Brook are on the lookout for something.
Jimbe and Franky are following behind, but Robin appears to be fixated on a wall of the ruins, which has a skull carved into it.
Where exactly is the monkey pointing? This is an uplifting illustration that depicts the Straw Hat Pirates on an adventure together.

Never-before-seen color and detail
A collection featuring realistic colors that cannot be produced with the offset printing process used for comics and manga magazines. Available in two sizes, A2 (420 mm x 594 mm) and A1 (594 mm x 841 mm). This collection is printed on the 100% cotton velvet fine art paper used in museum collections.
At Shueisha, we have been digitally archiving manga since 2007. We initially captured color originals with the EverSmart Supreme II high-precision scanner. Since 2015, we have been using the Phase One IQ180 high-resolution digital camera. As of 2020, we are using the iXG100MP model from Phase One's Cultural Heritage series. We are able to capture and save ranges of color that cannot be reproduced by commercial printing, and we can even capture the texture of the paper that the artist used.
For the Real Color Collection label, we send these captured and adjusted images to a printer that has undergone color management. The pigmented inks used in Epson inkjet printers are light-resistant and retain their original color even in the kind of light conditions that would cause dye color inks used on the originals to fade.
Not only do the ranges of color exceed those produced by the offset printing methods used for comic covers, but we are also able to achieve levels of light resistance and durability that even exceed those of the original pictures drawn on paper.
A set of original size prints and enlarged original prints
The collection, based on works drawn on paper, contains a set of two types of prints, one in the original size (often B4) drawn by the artist, and another enlarged to A2–A1 size. One can witness the precision that went into the original size prints. The blown-up prints allow one to feel the impact of the work and notice details that only become apparent when the artwork is enlarged.
