The Hobonichi Techo is back with another collaboration with ONE PIECE magazine, which dives into the world of the hit manga series One Piece. Straw Hat Luffy (Ivory) is a Weeks book with an illustration of Luffy drawn by creator Eiichiro Oda for the cover of ONE PIECE magazine Vol.9.

The cover is constructed as a light hardcover book with some give to it so it still bends, with a rough cloth with a fine, uneven texture. Luffy, holding a large brush, has just been produced by Eiichiro Oda’s hand and runs straight out — the dynamic and energetic illustrations are laid out all over the front and back covers.

On the back is a foil-printed logo of ONE PIECE magazine x HOBONICHI as a delightful sign of the collaboration.

The spine says, “They Call Him ‘Straw Hat Luffy,’” inspired by the spine design of the ONE PIECE magazine. 

The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. This paper that underwent an overhaul with the 2024 edition techo is more resistant to bleed through, lighter despite being the same thickness, and has a smoother surface by adjusting the fibers of the paper.

The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 69 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (73 pages in the English edition). The back of the book contains bonus pages, including Sample Symbols and Icons and Oodles of Noodles.
