Throughout theOne Piecesaga , in nearly every conflict thatLuffyfinds himself , he is usually the brusque opponent . Conversely , when limn with other member of the Straw Hat Pirates gang , he seems of average peak . This contrast is a spot confusing because , it would mean that most of his opponents , male person or distaff , are giant . luckily , to give some peace of judgment , Shueisha , One Piece ’s publishing house has provided an answer for the precise height of Luffy and otherOne Piececharacters , at their Jump Shop in Tokyo ’s Shibuya District .
One Piecetells the story of Monkey D. Luffy , and his seeking to become the greatest pirate of them all . As a tike , Luffy erroneously eat ( what appeared to be ) the Gum - Gum Devil Fruitwhich gives him the ability to extend his body as if it were a rubber band .

SinceOne Pieceis so popular it ’s outsold every unmarried Batman comiccombined , Shibuya ’s Jump Shop has a limited section of the store , dedicated toOne Pieceand Luffy . In one quoin of that section , there ’s a sprightliness - sized height chart that provides the prescribed heights of the characters in the manga . According to the chart , for instance , Luffy ’s prescribed height is listed as being a little over 5 - feet-7 - column inch ( 174 cm ) , which compare with his actual depiction in the manga , which is a small taller than Nami , who is listed , on the chart , as being 5 - feet-6 - inches ( 170 cm ) , but shorter than Sanji and Zoro who are both heel as being a pilus over 5 - feet-9 - in ( 181 cm ) . That is , the chart confirm , as the manga portrays , that most of the Straw Hat Pirates crowd is made up of man and charwoman of mean heights . The only major difference that the chart brings out is the heights of Iron Man Franky , who is listed as being 7 - feet-9 - inches tall ( 240 cm ) , and Brook who is listed as just a smidgen over 9 - feet tall . While both are show in the manga as being taller than their Straw Hat Pirate crewmates , the chart show that a more naturalistic depiction would show them a being much taller . Indeed , Luffy would barely accomplish Brook ’s midsection .
More interesting , the chart does give away that most of the opponents that Luffy does fight are super - giant - sized . For instance , Luffy is fighting Kaido in a conflict that provesOne Pieceis still tonic . While it is clear that Kaido is a colossus , what the height chart points out is how much big than Luffy , he really is . The manga simply does not do justice to the height differential coefficient . More interestingly , the stature also shows , indirectly , just how hefty and sturdy Luffy is . Win or fall behind , column inch - for - inch , it ’s operose to argue against the call that Luffy has already become the keen plagiarist ever .
While the Shibuya Jump Shop peak chart is a nice way to interact with fandom by allow fans and customers to compare their personal height toLuffyand otherOne Piececharacters , it also provides insight into the manga , and more specifically into the brilliance of Luffy .
