One Piece Color Walk is the first manga artbook for One Piece. It contains 109 pages of colored images from volumes 1-9, listed in their chronological order from 1997 – 1999 (chapters 1 – 79). Of these, seven are color spreads (chapters 1, 12, 28, 52, 61, 70, and 79). In addition, 11 pages of the manga and several covers were colored, there are some sketches of One Piece as well as early concepts of the characters.
