Song Kier, an unlucky graduate student in art history, was just touching a piece of celadon in a museum when, in the blink of an eye, he transmigrated to the world of One Piece! He somehow gained the powers of the Celadon Fruit, turning into a “walking porcelain factory” who can transform himself into ceramics.
He had hoped to keep living as an artsy young man in this world, but then he ran into the Straw Hat Pirates, a crew with truly questionable taste. Luffy used the blue-and-white porcelain plate he had painstakingly crafted as a dish for meat. Zoro treated his celadon sword sheath like a whetstone. Sanji completely ignored the artful tableware he designed and insisted on serving food on ordinary plates...
“Good grief! These people’s taste is a complete disaster!” Song Kier fumed inwardly every day. And yet, these “artistic disasters” possessed qualities more precious than any work of art. In the end, the artsy young man could only join the Straw Hat crew in tears as their tenth companion, embarking on a quest to “save their sense of style.”
From roasting Luffy’s “meat plate aesthetic,” to saving Zoro from his “straight-man swordsmanship,” to revamping Sanji’s “practical tableware,” Song Kier gets into all kinds of hilarious trouble in the world of One Piece. But little by little, he discovers that these “artistic disasters” possess a spirit of freedom more precious than any work of art.
And so our “porcelain artist” begins to change course. He creates not only beautiful ceramics, but also “vessels of liberation” that can break chains and awaken freedom. From the East Blue to Laugh Tale, from ribbing his crewmates to saving the world, Song Kier uses his celadon art to bring about a “revolution in taste” that is both hilarious and thrilling!
