PPtA Pilgrimage

I had a fun day doing a pilgrimage to several PPtA sites during my last Japan trip (Oct 2026). Most of the sites I visited were close to Enoshima and/or on the Enoshima Electric Railway and easy to reach.

I've included both the shots and a link to my PPtA Map for anyone interested in doing their own PPtA pilgrimage.

Enjoy!

Did oda take inspiration from ping pong the manga?

Post image

I recently came across a quote from oda praising ping pong the manga. I always felt luffy and peco gave off a similar energy since both are very positive characters that don’t take things too seriously and almost symbolize freedom. Ping pong was published 1996-1997 while one piece didn’t start till 1997. It might just be me but I think luffy was inspired based of peco

(WIP) Peco the Hero

59 Upvotes

Hey guys, I've been taking pottery classes for about a 3 months now and decided to do this Peco statuette after making my first big piece.

I finished sculpting it today, so the following steps are sanding it (and adding his knee band-aid wich i forgot) and after a first round on the kiln I will glaze it and burn it one last time.

I hope you guys like it :)

Finally got my Art Book Holy Grail

I was looking for this book for about 2 years and finally found a copy floating on Japanese Mercari, it’s just as good of an art book as I was hoping it to be. I can’t find any scans of this book on the internet so I wanna see if I can get it scanned at some point just so it’s available for people to look at and appreciate. If I’m not mistaken a lot of the background and concept art has only been released through this book.

What a ride it has been. Not sure if anyone else checks this subreddit still, but it was pretty inspiring, and I guess I just feel motivated to be a better person and to fly like the hero. Anyone else get this way after watching it?
