00:29.326 --> 00:42.104
[SPEAKER_00]: In advance of the release of the second season of the live action one piece on Netflix, this media of the show in Jump App is making the first 155 chapters of the manga free to read online.

00:42.184 --> 00:50.695
[SPEAKER_00]: For TV Watchers, that should cover everything that's being adapted to the Netflix series all the way through almost the end of what's titled the Alibastasaga.

00:50.755 --> 00:54.861
[SPEAKER_00]: However, as you may be aware, there's a lot more one piece out there.

00:54.841 --> 01:03.072
[SPEAKER_00]: In fact, this free-to-read portion is not even 13% of the total story that's been released, which is starting to stretch up to 1,200 chapters.

01:03.252 --> 01:17.592
[SPEAKER_00]: Still, if you've never checked out one piece in her curious, head to the Showning Jump app, where those 155 chapters are free to download until April 10.

01:32.292 --> 01:37.519

01:37.539 --> 01:46.330
[SPEAKER_00]: Follows Cartoonist, Journalist and Activist, targeted by the federal government under the espionage act as dissent as criminalized and fear is used as a political weapon.

01:46.310 --> 02:01.026
[SPEAKER_00]: As the story unfolds, the parallels to the present are Starks, or Valence, propaganda, attacks on the press and the erosion of civil liberties, feel uncomfortably familiar, making the dissonance a reminder that the fight over free expression in America is not new and far from settled.

02:01.046 --> 02:06.212
[SPEAKER_00]: The new book hits stores on September 15, which is a ways away, so I'm sure it won't be as relevant then, right?

02:07.593 --> 02:12.739
[SPEAKER_00]: Right?

02:15.942 --> 02:19.148

02:33.595 --> 02:36.280
[SPEAKER_00]: As well as an inks-only version of Nick Tragota's variant.

02:36.260 --> 02:38.202
[SPEAKER_00]: to be even more specific.

02:38.222 --> 02:41.705
[SPEAKER_00]: The second printing per DC is based on strong demand.

02:41.825 --> 02:46.489
[SPEAKER_00]: Nothing of the provided press release says the book is sold out at the distributor level or anything like that.

02:46.509 --> 02:59.161
[SPEAKER_00]: But it does mean that as the new DC vertical line builds over the month and hopefully word of mouse spurs on continued sales, a second printing will be available in stores on March 18 right after issue number two hits on March 11.
