One Piece Red: Grand Characters

One Piece Red: Grand Characters (ワンピース　レッド　グランド　キャラクターズ) is the first databook in the series. It was released on January 5, 2002 and follows the series from volume 1-21.

As its subtitle suggests, One Piece Red is concerned almost solely with character data. Roughly half its content consists of in-depth profiles on each of the first six Straw Hat Pirates, with the rest mostly consisting of shorter write-ups on all the enemy pirates (and Marines) encountered so far.

Several bonus materials conclude the book, including a personality test and a miniaturized reproduction of the series' first cover arc, Buggy's Crew Adventure Chronicles.

Contents
The contents proper are preceded by several full-color illustrations:
 * A reproduction of Chapter 1's color spread
 * A collage compiling the following:
 * Luffy from a Volume 1 inset

 * Usopp from Volume 5's cover
