One Piece is an amazing anime that has captured the hearts of many fans. However, as many experts of the series will say, the manga is even better. With amazing visuals and better pacing, reading the manga for One Piece is almost an entirely different adventure. Plus, owning the manga physically looks amazing on a shelf, and is a perfect addition for any One Piece collector to have.
However, that brings up the question. How much does it cost to collect the entire One Piece manga? Being such a long series, it’s bound to be a lot. In fact, with so many chapters and volumes out there, is it worth it to collect the entire manga physically, or should fans just stick to reading the manga digitally? While it all varies from person to person, at the very least, collecting the physical manga of One Piece is going to cost a fair amount of money.

So far, one of the best ways to collect the entire series of One Piece is in the form of box sets.

One Piece: Usopp Is Tougher Than Fans Give Him Credit For
While many view Usopp as the weakest Straw Hat in One Piece, he is far tougher than fans give him credit for.
So far, there are four different One Piece box sets that fans can buy in order to save a little money while collecting the manga. Right now, the four box sets run from Volume 1 to Volume 90, reaching around One Piece’s Reverie Arc, and each costs anywhere from $100 to $150 each. Buying all four on Amazon will cost approximately $500, though fans will still need to purchase the remaining 17 chapters individually. This means that to purchase the entire series, it will cost around $670, which is still a large amount of money but is far cheaper than the alternative.
How To Save Some Money When Purchasing One Piece
Second-Hand Copies May Be The Best Bet
With the entire manga costing so much money, for most One Piece community members, it may be a lot easier to just read the manga from issue to issue. However, the cheapest alternative to owning the series is to purchase these collections second-hand, though this option does have the most risks. Some collectors are willing to sell portions of the series, or even the entire series so far, at a large discount compared to market price. However, as is the case with most online sellers, buyers should pay close attention to the quality and pricing of the item, to make sure they aren’t getting scammed.

In the end, owning all the popular series, One Piece, is a daunting and extremely expensive task. A strong alternative to owning the entire series may involve picking out the best moments and highlights of the series, rather than trying to own every single issue. This way, fans can still have a collection of all the best moments of One Piece, without spending an incredible amount of money. However, to own the entire collection, at the very least, fans are going to spend at least around $600 for the entirety of the One Piece manga.
