One Piece: Red Film Book Further Explores The Red-Haired Pirates of Shanks

By Evan Valentine - August 12, 2022 12:06 pm EDT

One Piece: Red recently hit theaters in Japan, with a fall release set for the world at large. As a part of the theatrical run, a new booklet has been released that not only gives new insight into the fifteenth film, it also does something of a deep dive into Shanks' pirates, including their names and the roles that they each play as a part of the Red Hair Pirates. With the film also introducing Shanks' daughter Uta, the world of One Piece is getting that much bigger.

Twitter Outlet New World Artur shared the sketches and breakdowns of the Red-Haired Pirates, with the former mentor to Luffy being the first Red-Haired Pirate in the book that will be featured as a part of One Piece: Red's theatrical release:

According to the Film RED booklet, being a Conqueror's haki user, Shanks is also referred to as an "Observation-killer" (kenbun-goroshi), as through aura control he stops his opponents from peering into the future pic.twitter.com/HWhongW0kw

Benn Beckman

Benn Beckman is very strong and agile and combining his rifle with his haki, his bullets swiftly penetrate his opponents. Even a logia like Kizaru couldn't oppose him when held at gunpoint. Though he is always cool-headed, he is also said to be a playboy that loves women pic.twitter.com/3cBPVmtKth

Yassop - "Chaser"

Yasopp's sniping skills are first-class, for which he earned the nickname "Chaser", capable of hitting 100 targets out of 100 shots. He uses observation haki, just like his son pic.twitter.com/k67C18WWIE

Lucky Roux

Lucky Roux is the cook of the Red-Haired Pirates, who fights by using his big body like a bowling ball and using haki. Despite his chubbiness, he has strong legs that make him very agile. He's always very happy, but he's not particularly good with women pic.twitter.com/mjt3oxrIBA

Monster The Monkey

Monster is an executive of the Red Hair Pirates and just as strong in battle as the other executives, even if he isn't a human. He is also highly intelligent and able to understand human emotions, ready to put his life on the line for others pic.twitter.com/CdXvOYQEEY

Limejuice

Limejuice is someone who fights with weapons that give electric discharges, like the electric bat he carries. He can use Geppo akin to Sanji's Sky Walk to attack from the skies pic.twitter.com/GALXP121aH

Building Snake

Building Snake is the navigator of the Red Hair Pirates and someone who fights with a "Two Sword Juggling Style", doing tricky moves like an acrobat would. He's been distantly looking over both Luffy and Uta's growth

Howling Gab

Howling Gab fights by somehow firing a laser roar out of his mouth that cuts through enemies. Despite his strength, he's actually very kind at heart. He hates bugs and ghosts pic.twitter.com/V1Hi8vVkFj
