The extraordinary success of ONE-PIECE: RED is particularly found in the central role of the character of Uta and her complicated relationship with her father, Emperor Shanks the Red. Months after the film's theatrical release, the team behind the production released the first lavish designs for the young singer.
In addition to looking at as Uta was originally introduced by Master Eiichiro Oda, the author also revealed his name before going into production. As you can see from the images in the posts at the bottom of the page, Uta appeared more colorful than she was ultimately portrayed, and always accompanied by tools such as a big guitar on his shoulders.
"Depending on what kind of music we choose, it has to be reflected in its appearance. Many of the key features are yet to be decided. These are drafts. However, I have tried to present some of the ideas that I had planned. Please let's really think about whether we want to continue down the path of music. I believe that The film should put more emphasis on music compared to what was done with ONE PIECE: Gold", These are the notes and comments on Oda's notes and drawings, addressed to the production.
As for the name, first Uta's name must have been Deborah. Were you impressed by these revelations? As usual, let us know by leaving a comment below. Finally, remembering that Uta has also won a rather curious prize, we leave you with our review of ONE PIECE: RED.
