The popular manga series One Piece and the anime series based on it have a huge fan base all over the world. However, the popularity of the series is reflected not only in the number of fans, but also in the number of tattoos dedicated to the series! In this article we will show you 10 of the most impressive One Piece tattoos.
The exciting plot around the mystery of the great pirate treasure, the One Piece, captivates fans around the world. It's no wonder that both pirate flags and the heroes of the series are repeatedly portrayed in tattoo form. Will this also be the case for Netflix's live action series, which will go online on August 31, 2023? It remains to be seen. So, here are 10 of the most fascinating tattoos inspired by the manga and the anime!
Luffy and Zoro
The most popular characters of the series can of course be seen as tattoo motifs again and again. Dramatic poses and a bright color scheme are often chosen to match the characters.
1. Luffy With His Iconic Straw Hat
Let's start with Monkey D. Luffy, the main character of the series. His goal is to become the king of the pirates one day. No question that the ambitious protagonist with the straw hat has many fans!
2. Gum-Gum Pistol
Not to mention, of course, Luffy's ability to stretch like rubber thanks to the Devil Fruit. Well, isn't that an idea for a tattoo?
3. Roronoa Zoro
As the very first crew member, Luffy chooses Zoro, the passionate swordsman. With no less than three swords, he has developed his very own fighting style.
Great Works Of Art
With every tattoo dedicated to a series or a fandom, you show how loyal a fan you are. But in some cases, viewers and longtime fans have become so dedicated to the story that they have huge works of art immortalized on their bodies. Among them are several characters from the show and thoughtful color gradients. Is a concept like that for you?
1. One Piece Masterpiece
Simply combining all the characters that you personally associate most with the show. And there you have it, a work of art!
2. Epic Fight
This tattoo captures the fight between Luffy and Kaido. The sparse use of color accents make it extra impressive.
Who Is Your Favorite Character?
Again, several characters are artistically portrayed together in one big tattoo. With their poses and facial expressions, the whole thing looks really epic and emotional.
Manga Tattoos
Many One Piece fans prefer the manga over the anime as tattoo inspiration.
Manga Panel
Everyone has a favorite moment in the anime that always gives them goosebumps. And everyone has their favorite parts of the manga, too. Certain panels are just so good that you can look at them over and over again, right? There's always the option to transfer the manga pages to your own skin.
2. Manga Collection
Manga covers or similar ideas are of course a real eye-catcher, especially with the shading that creates the illusion that you can actually touch the artwork.
One Piece!
Of course, if you just love the entire show and can't decide on a character, you can opt for the series' logo or an iconic symbol that all the like-minded people out there will instantly recognize.
Patch Or Tattoo?
The pirate flag created by Luffy with his favorite hat on the skull, for example, will be spotted by any One Piece enthusiast. Especially because the illusion is just perfect!
2. One Piece Map
In this tattoo, various elements were taken from the manga. The pirate ship with the flag of the Straw Hat Pirates, the steering wheel - all combined in a delicate black and white look.
