One Piece Red: Grand Characters

is the first One Piece databook. It was released on January 5, 2002 and covers material from Volume 1 to Volume 21, comprising all of the East Blue Saga and most of the Arabasta Saga.
As its subtitle suggests, One Piece Red is concerned almost solely with character data. Roughly half its content consists of in-depth profiles on each of the first six Straw Hat Pirates, with the rest mostly consisting of shorter write-ups on all the other pirate crews (and Marines) encountered thus far.While many of these facts are repeated from the manga and/or SBS columns, a number are new, especially where name romanizations and bounties are concerned. This article will retain all of them, including ones corrected and supplanted by later materials; "obvious" errors will be noted where appropriate. These are interspersed with several bonus stories, games, and the like.
