Catch the Red Hair Pirates With an Updated Design in ‘One Piece Film Red’ 

One Piece Film Red has become the hottest topic in the anime world now. Ever since they revealed the protagonist Uta and her story, fans have been going crazy with all the theories. 

But everyone knows how Oda works, and there’s no way we’ll ever know what’s about to happen in the story. This makes all theories pointless, and all that’s left to be excited about are the teasers and visuals. 

One Piece Film Red’s latest promotional video teases new character designs for the Red Hair Pirates. The movie is set to release on 6 August 2022. 

All of the characters are shown in a roughly drawn manga-style animation. The first one is, as expected, their chief and Uta’s father, Shanks, styling his usual shirt, funky-patterned pants, and a badass cape with his sword.  

Next is Benn Beckman with his rifle, Lucky Roux, Yasopp, Limejuice with his cool sunglasses, Bonk Punch, Monster, Building Snake, Hongo, Howling Gab, and Rockstar. I gotta give it to Oda for providing all One Piece characters with such quirky and distinctive names. 

Red Hair Pirates are the main reason Luffy got his rubber-like powers and formed the Straw Hats. Luffy’s motivation to be the Pirate King comes from Shanks constantly underestimating his abilities until Luffy gets angry enough to make such a statement. 

Instead of ridiculing him, Shanks is reminded of his old capital Gol D. Roger and how he had the same ambition and dreams as Luffy. 

Let’s not forget that the movie is not just about the pirates this time, but also the famous diva, Uta. Being Shanks’ daughter, her existence raises many questions that will be answered in the film. 

Moreover, the recent tease trailer also claims that Luffy and Uta have known each other since childhood! I can’t wait to see what this is all about, and I know that, like every time, we’re in for a surprise. 

About One Piece

One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997.

The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger. The final words he said at the execution tower were “My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.” These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, in search of One Piece. Thus began a new age!

Seeking to be the greatest pirate in the world, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece. His diverse crew is joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright, this will be one memorable adventure.
