Shopping Guide
Tokyo One Piece Tower, the greatest One Piece theme park in the history of the beloved anime, re-opened on June 18! Commemorating its renewal, protagonist Luffy will be the first member of the Straw Hat Pirates to take over the Yamanote Line 1!
Tokyo One Piece Tower’s nickname is Tongari Island, created as an original island in the New World of One Piece. The front of the train cars read “For Tongari Island,” and the nine members of the Straw Hat Pirates appear on the Yamanote Line’s special design. You’ll also be informed how long it’ll take from the line’s principal stations to get to Tongari Island 2! You can enjoy not only anime illustrations, but also images of the cast from the popular Tokyo One Piece Tower live show, One Piece Live Attraction. This special line will only be in service until July 17.
