Reading the official print also gives you the opportunity for you to read the quirky/pervy mind of Oda in the SBS questions corner.They are really fun to read
One piece has such a special place in my heart. I started watching it in late 2017, eventually switching to the manga, and catching up towards the end of 2018. No other series captures that sense of childlike wonder while also containing extremely fascinating characters and worldbuilding like One Piece imo. It's a long and daunting series but I assure you it's worth it. I've never felt bored or regretful over starting the series and I really hope you feel the same
I am laughing so hard. I started One Piece last year and had to immediately start collecting One Piece manga and merch. I am so excited for more One Piece vlogs.
@@GavinReadsItAll I don't think you'll need that to keep going! I've been reading since 2005 and there was only a year or two when I collected ten or so chapters at a time before reading. Otherwise I've been looking forward to reading the new chapter every week!
I would love to see them all displayed on a small bookshelf just for all of your One Piece memorabilia, haha. Maybe add some figurines and things... it would be so cute. It's such a fun (and wild) feeling when something takes hold of us like that. It's like it just completes a missing part of your soul. I'm so happy for you!
I've been reading One Piece for the last 21 years. It's been with me for more than half of my life. Seeing someone fall in love with the series as you are, is just beautiful. Welcome to the Crew.
I used to watch the anime when it was first coming out and got to about ep. 98 before life got in the way and I stopped. For the past few years I wanted to read or watch it and catch up but I never found the time so at the start of this year I decided to just go for it and make the time to read it. I have been taking breaks between arcs but after seeing your first OP video I binge read *a lot* (for me). Thanks for the re-motivation!
Great tip for shelving manga! Because it's so small, you can put a shoebox or somethibg on the shelf and make tiered shelves, storing twice as many manga while keeping them all visible!
I've never touched One Piece but your joy in falling hard and fast for it is so fun to watch. There's nothing like that whirlwind excitement of finding an instant favorite. Getting the entire series was definitely worth it! One hundred volumes sounds so intimidating - I was nervous when collecting Fullmetal Alchemist and that's not even a third as long as One Piece.
You made the right choice buying the collection. In no small part the the question corner inserted into the volumes throughout. The SBS turns the world into something real. Everything from serious world building questions to running jokes some readers have with Oda himself, are answered there. Some readers even have recurring jokes with Oda! One Piece has been a part of my life for... most of it tbh, so to say it has a special place in my heart is an understatement. Seeing someone pick it up for the first time and watching them fall in love with it with such excitement, like you are, is an experience i'll never grow tired of. In several months time when you're about to catch up you will think to yourself; "Damn... I wish there was more." I guarantee it. One thing to keep in mind throughout this whole journey is that this was written by a single man, chapter by chapter, week to week. Remember that as the artwork improves and the story gets better and better. Oda got married in 2004 and didn't get to go on his honeymoon till 2010. I'm bigging the series up a lot, it's important to know just how monumental One Piece is as a series. Both commercially and a piece of media on the whole. BEST OF LUCK ON YOUR JOURNEY! WE'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU ON THE SHORES OF WANO!!!
god, maybe one day ill be able to own all the volumes of one piece as well! ive been watching/reading the series since i was 10 or 11 years old, around 14 years ago, and its just always been part of my life it feels like. getting home from school and watching the german dubbed skypea episodes, celebrating when something good happened, crying my eyes out when something bad happened or someone backstory got revealed lmao...just the best
This is so funny to me xD It's like One Piece was haunting you until you've bought most of the series haha The covers are so beautiful to me because they are so colorful and fun, but they sometimes contain spoilers... So you've been warned
I am so glad to have discovered your channel. It's been an absolute delight watching you get absorbed into the series. Can't wait to be part of your journey through the rest of One Piece. I can already tell it's gonna be an amazing one😊❤️
love the collection, your excitment is infectious! also i just have to say you've inspired me so much in the organization of all of my shelves i swear everything i have looks so much better now after seeing how your library has been set up so thanks for that!
Wow, seems like you got an impressive collection of all things One Piece. Personally I’ve never watched the anime series cause it’s extremely long, but I know for a fact that they’re all great. Wishing you well on your future content to come, Gavin. Best of luck to you.
Getting a hold of the fabled volume 100 was something I could only dream about when I started watching the anime in 2005 and reading the manga in 2006. As a long term fan of One Piece you have no idea how good it felt to finally reach volume 100. The week to week experience reading and watching this series is truly special. It will be a mixture of elation, relief and sadness when it finally ends, although I still think we have several years left to go despite Oda's claims it will end in 3 years. He is notoriously bad at giving timelines after all
buying all volumes of one piece in one go even though you've only read the first 12 or so volumes might sound crazy to some but with one piece it's actually 100% the greatest investment any reader could do. trust me, one piece won't let you down. you won't regret any of it for a single second! can't wait to see your journey, welcome to the one piece family!
this is brilliant!!! 😂 love your channel and love this content! You start One Piece and end up giving your soul (and your shelves) to the series, very relatable experience 😂 and also love how these videos are now like a video diary of your journey through this
Seeing a person spending a ton of money on something they actually also very much enjoy to buy was so funny and adorable to watch! No regrets Gavin, you're actually lucky to have all the volumes now. I've been reading OP for 20 years and I only own a handful of physical volumes because I neither have the money nor the space for all of them xD Happy reading and be careful of spoilers on the internet.
Part of me wishes I did the work and collected over time, I feel like it would have been far more satisfying, but love that you got a complete collection!
Man… I’m currently rewatching it and hearing you casually name all of the saga names and made me think to myself “oh he has no idea what he’s in for…” enjoy!
I'm excited to watch your updates. Also, hilarious how you unwittingly reinforced several reoccuring jokes in One Piece - Zoro constantly sleeping, and the ghost mug with the Thriller Bark arc. Wishing you luck!
One suggestion to store the comic/manga books is to use the DVD cabinet bought in IKEA. The size fits and it is neat, and it saves space too. Just a suggestion, I use that as well.
Seeing you get excited over these is very heartwarming but a saga a month??? I completely missed that if you said it in the first One Piece video 😩 hope you could do more honestly 🙏
I bloody love One Piece! I started reading it last year during the lockdown in my country and I had so much anxiety of getting Covid or my family getting Covid and quarantining in government bases so I read it every day. There are days I finish a short arc in one day cos I had to know what happens before I slept
Your even luckier because that 20 you got and some others are in gold on the top it means one of the first prints I watched this video 5 times cuz of satisfaction of opening them up
I’m so excited for this journey!! I started one piece back in 7th grade, now I’m in the 11th… thanks to birthday money and Christmas I have the first two box sets of the manga and the last one as well… now I just need the 3rd one and the 5th one whenever it comes out! I think I’ll continue collecting them in box set form because that’s how I started collecting the manga. To be honest I have not read it, but I’m caught up with the anime! I’ll definitely read it in the future to rediscover the amazing journey I’ve been going on with the strawhats for a while!
i also start reading the omnibus volume one and god i enjoy it so much!!! i can’t wait to continue reading, the series is so fresh, funny and wholesome!!!
I finally catched up with one piece last week and I'm also completely obsessed with it. I have the first 4 omnibus versions (read the rest on a free app), but my ultimate dream right now is to own all 100 volumes. This series is just unexplainably good
Always glad to see a happy fellow OP fan, grats Gavin👏 I can sense your joy just watching you count all those volumes. Also that's a great haul considering that all of those seems to be in pretty great condition. Enjoy, you're in for a wild ride!
Completing a collection, especially if it’s out of print or anything can be such a pain. I used to read the w.i.t.c.h magazine and collected some of the bind up paperbacks. But eventually when the series ended the stopped selling them. Since they were published by a more magazine/comic publisher and I guess it was nothing with a high demand. Anyway for a long time I only had the few volumes I bought as a teen and getting them individually wasn’t really a thing so I eventually just bought someone’s complete set on eBay and just kept the ones I didn’t already own. Was a big Investment all at once but did. save me much time spent searching. Have a great weekend and enjoy your new obsession 😊
I love how more one piece things started showing up the longer it got. It was such a delight watching you go through it and that it was all of them, I was worried some were going to be missing, like 34 took a while to come out 😂😂
Man. Im so happy your response to one piece was basically the same as mine. I too am obsessed with one piece. And your reaction to east blue was why i subscribed. Right during ther baratie review
this made me so happy to watch. i'm always so excited seeing someone starting one piece :) have fun on the journey!! i really love this video and your east blue saga video. looking forward to the next one piece videos as well!! :)
great haul!! I hope you love the rest of the series ♥️ my boyfriend & I are currently collecting and reading the mangas together, we’re both fans of the anime since childhood!
I started a rewatch of One Piece back in May this year (a rewatch because years ago stopped right after Fishman Island). I'm flying through and am now on episode 561, so I think I'm right about where I had left off. I just showed this to my husband and said "It could be so much worse." XD Little does he know, I think about doing this all the time! ;)
That's awesome! Looking forward to your thoughts on the series. I currently own the first 6 Japanese box sets for the first 6 saga's, their design is lovely
This is amazing. If I came into a fortune, I'd definitely collect the entire series too. I've read many manga, but One Piece is one of only 3 that I have ever actually day dreamed about collecting.
ahahah I love your enthusiasm, gonna sub just for it alone :D I love watching people fall in love with a show I love myself. Welcome aboard, mate. (Don't worry I recently bought the entire series as well second hand in Japanese because I'm learning japanese and haven't actually read the manga, only watched the anime)
Lmao yes only 5 days and full conversion! One Piece captured me in the intense kind of way that I felt like it was a hyperfixation, then years later realized it was in fact not, and then it felt like I stumbled into a cult. I found my religion I guess. Welcome Nakama.
I've already watched all episodes of the anime years ago and read the manga, but this year (in June) I decided that I wanted reread One Piece, but I wanted it physical, cause I really like reading manga with the actual volume in my hand and turning the pages, etc. So I got myself the 4 box sets, it was the best option for me, cheaper, extra goodies and it's easier to store, thanks to the boxes ^^ Now I'm at volume 90 (so almost done reading them all, I really hope I don't have to wait too long for Box set 5, but I will wait for it, I mean I have already read the chapters online anyways xD)
You seem a bit anxious to justify buying them, but I can say you were 100% correct in that being the best choice. You go you Gavin ! Can't wait to see you read everything!
I would love to have those, but sticking to Omnibus since it's cheaper and more readily available. Like they actually have collections for each saga, but they're always sold out and sold by scalpers for 5 times the amount which is about 500-600$ for East Blue while I easily got the entire East Blue Omnibus for about 80$. Like there is a clear cheaper option.
i dislocated my knee, and one piece is so long, that basically my entire recovery was just getting through one piece, time did fly by it served its purpose, but i dont look so fundly back, for sure there are some hard to get through arcs, my least favs are : the ceasar clown island, skypiea, the fishman island, big mom's island, nami's origin, gecko moria's island, the furries island, the colosseum, in that order, ceasar clown being my least fav.
Based off past statements and calculations there should be 18 to 20 volumes after that to complete the series so you should plan for that much more. I figure there will be 118 volumes when the series is over from those statements and how many chapters usually come in a volume. I've already made room in my collection for those not released yet. Anyway, it's both cool and wild that you bought every volume so far in one shot like that.
Maybe by the time it actually concludes (😭) you will be able to fill up that full shelf without doubling (or maybe still with the doubling). At the current moment, I'm guessing we might get to 150 volumes... maybe 125 at the smallest. It does feel like we are approaching the endgame, but at the same time, who knows how long even the endgame will take? I'm just hoping no one will pressure Oda into ending it early (or what I actually mean is on time in that quoted "5" years... if it takes longer, it takes longer).
You could be right on the bookshelf space and I would love for the entire series to fill it up! I feel like I may have gotten into OP at the right time as there’s an endgame in sight, though I’m now sad that my journey will be over in a couple of years when other people have been part of One Piece for 2 decades 😢
@@GavinReadsItAll I say... as a long time 20year+ fan.. don't put too much weight in the "it's almost over" stuff because Oda's said it before. Technically (without spoiling) we can feel it in the current narrative now, so we talk like it could be real, but there also is a ton of stuff he could cover in the meantime that elongates the story. I'm sure you already got it at that point, just what I mean is don't be disappointed if it keeps going. (Though, I don't know how people could... I know a lot of fans are thinking more "What am I going to do when it does finally end" more than anything, but it always sounds like many are waiting for it to end to be a part of that big occasion.)
Oda Said OP will be done in 4-5 years, but again he said that in 2014 😂 but we are in the last Saga, so who knows, I hope he stays healthy and he can finish this masterpiece
Maybe if you swap the triple pack collections with the ones on the bottom and move the Luffy figurine somewhere else you can fit the 100 volumes on the top line
Maybe use that little notebook to write down some small things across your readthrough, Oda is great at putting small details early on that are explored much more later
Fun fact: The covers for volumes 99, 100 and 101 can be combined to form a single picture
Oh wow that’s so cool! I’ve just went and put 99 and 100 together to check 😂
@@GavinReadsItAll same for volumes 21-22 and that full image is one of my favorites
Does it also work as individual volumes?

I do recommend watching certain parts in the anime after reading such as Nami asking for help. So emotional and memorable.
Nothing happened

I love how more one piece things started showing up the longer it got. It was such a delight watching you go through it and that it was all of them, I was worried some were going to be missing, like 34 took a while to come out 😂😂
Welcome to the one piece journey it's one heck of a ride. U will laugh, cry and experience so many emotions going through this
Man. Im so happy your response to one piece was basically the same as mine. I too am obsessed with one piece. And your reaction to east blue was why i subscribed. Right during ther baratie review
this made me so happy to watch. i'm always so excited seeing someone starting one piece :) have fun on the journey!! i really love this video and your east blue saga video. looking forward to the next one piece videos as well!! :)
I’m literally subscribing so i can follow your one piece journey, im so excited! I loved the one hour long saga review. love ittttt
Damn, im so jealous you got your hands on all the volumes. Enjoy the series
I'm so jealous, love this. Pity about not fitting everything in perfectly, but oh well. Enjoy, looking forward to your journey
great haul!! I hope you love the rest of the series ♥️
my boyfriend & I are currently collecting and reading the mangas together, we’re both fans of the anime since childhood!
Oh I love that you both love it! It’s great to share OP with someone 🥰
the big sigh and zoom out had me rolling LMAOOO 😂😂
I love how booktubers are getting in to one piece.Its like a dream come true
I started a rewatch of One Piece back in May this year (a rewatch because years ago stopped right after Fishman Island). I'm flying through and am now on episode 561, so I think I'm right about where I had left off. I just showed this to my husband and said "It could be so much worse." XD Little does he know, I think about doing this all the time! ;)
That's awesome! Looking forward to your thoughts on the series. I currently own the first 6 Japanese box sets for the first 6 saga's, their design is lovely
this was so satisfying to watch I'm excited for the journey again, Merphy's was a blast
Love the ZORO just lying down on the bottom shelve
I love seeing ppl fall in love with one piece, I've been reading/watching since 2002 lmao
I think 'A person on RUclips is falling in love with One Piece in real time' is my favorite genre right now.
This is amazing. If I came into a fortune, I'd definitely collect the entire series too. I've read many manga, but One Piece is one of only 3 that I have ever actually day dreamed about collecting.
ahahah I love your enthusiasm, gonna sub just for it alone :D I love watching people fall in love with a show I love myself. Welcome aboard, mate. (Don't worry I recently bought the entire series as well second hand in Japanese because I'm learning japanese and haven't actually read the manga, only watched the anime)
This is the first unboxing video I have watched. One Piece does something to ya
Lmao yes only 5 days and full conversion! One Piece captured me in the intense kind of way that I felt like it was a hyperfixation, then years later realized it was in fact not, and then it felt like I stumbled into a cult. I found my religion I guess. Welcome Nakama.
I loved the new video! I think those figure will look amazing on you shelf too x
Oh my, Gavin, that a lot of manga lol but you do you! Also, loved the Hocus Pocus book in the background! Happy release day :)
Yay happy Hocus Pocus 2 day!!
Welcome to the “Straw Hats”. I fell down the rabbit hole a year ago and don’t regret it
I've already watched all episodes of the anime years ago and read the manga, but this year (in June) I decided that I wanted reread One Piece, but I wanted it physical, cause I really like reading manga with the actual volume in my hand and turning the pages, etc.
So I got myself the 4 box sets, it was the best option for me, cheaper, extra goodies and it's easier to store, thanks to the boxes ^^
Now I'm at volume 90 (so almost done reading them all, I really hope I don't have to wait too long for Box set 5, but I will wait for it, I mean I have already read the chapters online anyways xD)
You seem a bit anxious to justify buying them, but I can say you were 100% correct in that being the best choice. You go you Gavin ! Can't wait to see you read everything!
You're saving money for sure. When One Piece ended, the demand for those volumes will increase as so many fans will try to buy the full collection.
I would love to have those, but sticking to Omnibus since it's cheaper and more readily available. Like they actually have collections for each saga, but they're always sold out and sold by scalpers for 5 times the amount which is about 500-600$ for East Blue while I easily got the entire East Blue Omnibus for about 80$. Like there is a clear cheaper option.
I’m jealous that you have more One Piece volumes than I do.
But welcome to the One Piece family.😁
Thank you 🥰
11:20 Crazy to think about that you have more than 20 years of history on your table. One Piece truly is a journey
i dislocated my knee, and one piece is so long, that basically my entire recovery was just getting through one piece, time did fly by it served its purpose, but i dont look so fundly back, for sure there are some hard to get through arcs, my least favs are : the ceasar clown island, skypiea, the fishman island, big mom's island, nami's origin, gecko moria's island, the furries island, the colosseum, in that order, ceasar clown being my least fav.
Never have I been so jealous of a person before! Hope you don't get a One Piece cocaine addiction to it😂
Haha too late I think 😂
He’s fine 😂😂 but his wallet will cry most of the time 😂 I even got a Luffy tattoo bcs I love this story so much
Anyone remember the episode where squidward tries a crabby pattie? Lmao
The part about staying awake thinking about the one missing book hit deep
Based off past statements and calculations there should be 18 to 20 volumes after that to complete the series so you should plan for that much more. I figure there will be 118 volumes when the series is over from those statements and how many chapters usually come in a volume. I've already made room in my collection for those not released yet. Anyway, it's both cool and wild that you bought every volume so far in one shot like that.
Maybe by the time it actually concludes (😭) you will be able to fill up that full shelf without doubling (or maybe still with the doubling). At the current moment, I'm guessing we might get to 150 volumes... maybe 125 at the smallest. It does feel like we are approaching the endgame, but at the same time, who knows how long even the endgame will take? I'm just hoping no one will pressure Oda into ending it early (or what I actually mean is on time in that quoted "5" years... if it takes longer, it takes longer).
You could be right on the bookshelf space and I would love for the entire series to fill it up! I feel like I may have gotten into OP at the right time as there’s an endgame in sight, though I’m now sad that my journey will be over in a couple of years when other people have been part of One Piece for 2 decades 😢
@@GavinReadsItAll I say... as a long time 20year+ fan.. don't put too much weight in the "it's almost over" stuff because Oda's said it before.
Technically (without spoiling) we can feel it in the current narrative now, so we talk like it could be real, but there also is a ton of stuff he could cover in the meantime that elongates the story. I'm sure you already got it at that point, just what I mean is don't be disappointed if it keeps going.
(Though, I don't know how people could... I know a lot of fans are thinking more "What am I going to do when it does finally end" more than anything, but it always sounds like many are waiting for it to end to be a part of that big occasion.)
Oda Said OP will be done in 4-5 years, but again he said that in 2014 😂 but we are in the last Saga, so who knows, I hope he stays healthy and he can finish this masterpiece
You did well, fam :D You will definitely not regret it!
That 1 follower on Merphy's channel who continually recommend One Piece has sent ripples cascading across RUclips into a wave far beyond imagining.
I really wish I knew who they were so I could thank them 😂
Maybe if you swap the triple pack collections with the ones on the bottom and move the Luffy figurine somewhere else you can fit the 100 volumes on the top line
I dont expect 100 volume manga gonna be so much like this😂 and yeah lets start marathon💪
Maybe use that little notebook to write down some small things across your readthrough, Oda is great at putting small details early on that are explored much more later
You've embarked on quite a journey, friend. You're going to be amazed at how Oda can tug on those heartstrings. You ain't seen _nothing_ yet.
You will not regret your purchase. I am fully caught up and I’m looking to buy all the volumes myself now.
“Accidentally”
8:33 “I cannot wait to get to this!”
Yes you can. Once you’re caught up, you’ll realize that 100 volumes still isn’t enough. 😂
