Monkey D. "Straw Hat"[n 1] Luffy[6] (モンキー・D・ルフィ Monkī Dī Rufi) is a fictional character and the primary protagonist of the One Piece franchise created by Eiichiro Oda. He is first introduced in the manga chapter "Romance Dawn" (Romance Dawn - 冒険の夜明 Romance Dawn - Bōken no Yoake), first published in Japan's Weekly Shōnen Jump
magazine on July 19, 1997, as a young boy whose body gains the
properties of rubber after he inadvertently eats a supernatural fruit
called the Gum-Gum Fruit, one of many Devil Fruits that can be found in
the One Piece world.
In One Piece, Luffy sails from the East Blue to the Grand Line
in search of the legendary treasure One Piece to succeed Gol D. Roger
as the King of the Pirates. He is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates
and along his journey, he recruits new crew members with unique
abilities and personalities. He fights several antagonists, such as the
Seven Warlords of the Sea and the World Government, during his travels,
while also aiding and befriending the locals of various islands. Luffy
has a nonchalant demeanor but is quick to become serious whenever he
senses that a friend is in danger. Luffy is able to use the elasticity
of his body to concentrate his strength and power to execute a diverse
range of attacks, the most prominent being his signature Gum-Gum Pistol,
in which Luffy slingshots his punches at opponents from a distance.
As the protagonist, Luffy appears in most of the episodes, films, television specials, and OVAs of the anime series One Piece, as well as several of the franchise's video games.
Due to the series' international popularity, Luffy has become one of
the most recognizable and iconic anime characters in history. Outside
the One Piece franchise, Luffy has had an appearance in the crossover manga Cross Epoch, and in a collaborative one-shot manga with Toriko. He has also been the subject of other parodies, and has appeared in various special events throughout Japanese pop culture.
