Volume 63

Volume 63 is titled "Otohime and Tiger".

Cover and Volume Illustration
The colored cover is neon yellow, and the title logo is peach (fading from white), orange, and yellow-orange. The author's name is printed in orange.

On the front, Luffy crouches in the bottom center, his arms and feet bound by ropes. To his right is Zoro, who stands in a fighting stance, and to his left is Megalo, who looks like he is in pain. Behind him is a crying Shirahoshi, whose hair partly obscures the title logo. In the background is Fisher Tiger to her left and Otohime to her right.

Shirahoshi is featured on the spine, and the skull logo on the spine is colored pink.

For the volume illustration on page 3, Luffy is posed in an angry fighting stance.
