Volume 62

Volume 62 is titled "Adventure on Fish-Man Island".
==Cover and Volume Illustration==
The colored cover is pink, and the title logo is light blue (fading from white), dark blue, and gray. The author's name is written in dark blue.
On the front outside cover, Luffy stands in the center, with his excited gaze directed upward. To Luffy's right, from top to bottom, are Neptune, Chopper, Pappag, and Camie. To his left, from top to bottom, are Megalo, a lovestruck Sanji, and Surume. Above him are the Medaka Mermaid Quintuplets with several colorful fish swimming over them. In the background is Fish-Man Island, with a rainbow and several mermaids from Mermaid Café.
Sanji (with Mero's smiling face in the background) and Camie are featured on the spine, and the skull logo on the spine is colored hot pink.
For the volume illustration on page 3, Luffy happily poses with a piece of meat in his left hand.
==Inside Cover==
*Due to this volume being published right after the Great East Japan Earthquake, there is a hidden alternate front cover for this volume that features an illustration (by the author) of the Straw Hat Pirates sending out words of encouragement to the earthquake victims.
===Translation===
Luffy: I'M DOING GREAT!!!!
Usopp, Franky, Sanji, Zoro, Chopper: How you're doing isn't important!!
Nami: Now it's our turn to support all of you!!
Bottom text: Fight! 
(Translator's Note: The word "Fight!" means something along the lines of "You can do it!" in Japanese.)

Author's Notes	Author's Notes
 	
Apparently, if you trace the roots of peoples' DNA, our blood all leads to a single woman from a looooong time ago in Africa.
Despite this, theoretically speaking, she was not the earliest human around--- but such a person must exist.
The beginning of humanity. The mother of humanity!
It sounds intense, so I tried drawing a picture in her image.
All of humanity is one big family.
No matter who's in trouble, they're not a complete stranger.
Volume 62 is startiiiing~~!
(Translator's Note: Background text in image says "Great Mother!!!" and in Great Mother's speech bubble, it says "Do your homework!!")

==Trivia==
*There is an original illustration of Luffy on page 7 of this volume.
*The inside front cover of this volume, along with Volume 15, Volume 19, Volume 38, Volume 52, and Volume 56, is completely different from the outside cover. It features an illustration by the author encouraging victims of the Great Easter Japan Earthquake.
*Because the alternate front cover of this volume was taken up by this illustration, the title logo for the series had to be moved to the back alternate cover of this volume; hence making this the first volume to not have the official One Piece logo printed on its alternate front cover.
*The easter egg series continues on the alternate back cover of this volume, with an unnamed easter egg and Pandaman being featured.
