ARVÉ GRADED COLLECTIBLES JAPAN is a Japan-based curator specializing in graded collectibles such as comics, manga, video games, cameras, and other long-term investment pieces.
Our base of operations is Hokkaido, Japan – one of the least humid regions in the country. This low-humidity environment greatly reduces the risk of mold, paper warping, and other humidity-related damage, making it ideal for preserving high-grade collectibles.
We have a proven track record of submitting coins and other collectibles to major grading companies and selling graded items worldwide, and now apply that expertise to manga and games.
Our mission is to reconstruct the value of collections and curate items for future collectible potential.
This listing is for ONE PIECE Vol.1 (1st Printing), professionally graded by CBCS with a final grade of 5.5.
ONE PIECE, created by Eiichiro Oda, is one of the most influential manga series ever published and the best-selling manga franchise in history. As the very first volume of the series, Vol.1 holds exceptional significance for collectors worldwide.
Japanese first-print copies of ONE PIECE Vol.1 are especially sought after due to their historical importance as the beginning of Monkey D. Luffy's journey and the launch of a franchise that would become a global cultural phenomenon.

Despite the absence of the original obi, authentic Japanese first-print copies of ONE PIECE Vol.1 remain highly collectible due to their historical importance. CBCS has also assigned a separate Dust Jacket grade of 4.5, providing additional insight into the jacket's condition.
With CBCS no longer accepting new manga grading submissions, existing CBCS-graded manga volumes have effectively become fixed-population collectibles. As one of the most iconic first volumes in manga history, authenticated 1st printing copies of ONE PIECE Vol.1 continue to attract strong collector demand worldwide.
