Monkey D. Luffy
Monkey D. "Straw Hat" Luffy is a fictional character and the primary protagonist of the One Piece franchise created by Eiichiro Oda.
He is introduced as a young boy whose body gains the properties of rubber after he inadvertently eats a supernatural fruit called the Gum-Gum Fruit.
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 he recruits members along his journey.
He fights several antagonists, such as the World Government, during his travels.
Luffy has a nonchalant demeanor but is quick to become serious whenever he senses that someone is in danger.
Luffy is able to use the elasticity of his body to concentrate his strength and power for 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.
Outside of the One Piece franchise, Luffy has had an appearance in the crossover manga Cross Epoch.
He has also been the subject of other parodies, and has appeared in various special events throughout Japanese pop culture.
Luffy's critical reception has been largely positive and he has been recognized as one of the greatest manga/anime characters of all time.
