Three eras. Three ships. Three levels of power.

Nerd Honey proudly presents the One Piece: Luffy Akira Homage Trilogy, an Anime Expo 2026 Exclusive featuring original artwork by the incredibly talented Shehzan.

Inspired by one of the most iconic images in anime history, Shehzan brilliantly reimagines the legendary Akira homage through the evolution of Monkey D. Luffy’s journey, capturing three defining moments from his rise to becoming one of the most powerful pirates in the world.

Each cover celebrates a different chapter of Luffy’s growth:

⚡ Gear 2 Cover
The beginning of Luffy’s evolution, featuring his iconic Gear 2 transformation alongside the beloved Going Merry, the ship that carried the Straw Hats through their earliest adventures.

💥 Gear 4 Cover
Luffy’s next major leap in power, showcasing the devastating strength of Gear 4 with the Thousand Sunny standing ready for the New World’s challenges.

👑 Gear 5 Cover
The ultimate awakening. Luffy’s legendary Gear 5 form is unleashed in all its glory, representing the pinnacle of his journey and one of the most celebrated moments in modern anime.

Shehzan doesn’t simply recreate the iconic Akira image. He elevates it, blending one of anime’s most recognizable visual tributes with the evolution of One Piece’s greatest hero to create a trilogy that feels both nostalgic and entirely original.
