Oscar and Marie Antoinette aren’t the only characters inspiring chocolates this month.
The Straw Hat crew and other characters from One Piece have become edible chocolate sweets in collaboration with Tokyo Chocolate brand. The chocolates went on sale at the Salon du Chocolat 2017 event at the Tokyo International Forum from February 2 to 5.
There are two collections, the Luffy Collection and the Law Collection. Each contains nine unique chocolate flavors representing characters from the manga and anime series. The chocolate boxes sell for 2,190 yen (US$19) each.
The chocolates will also be sold in limited quantities at 17 Tokyo chocolate shops during Valentine’s season.
Last year, One Piece‘s Mugiwara stores marked the romantic holiday by giving away bromide prints at random to customers who spend at least 1,000 yen (US$8)
