One Piece anime theme park coming to Tokyo Tower in 2015

The popular Japanese anime will celebrate its 15th anniversary with the new attraction
Anime fans could soon be planning a trip to Tokyo to visit the world’s first One Piece theme park, due to open its doors in Q1 of 2015. The popular Japanese manga and later anime series, which first debuted in December 1997, follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy – a young man whose body gains the properties of rubber after unintentionally eating a Devil Fruit – and his crew of pirates.
The ¥101m (US$1m, €742,500, £585,000) pirate-themed park will be located at Tokyo Tower – Japan’s second-tallest structure which first opened in 1958 – but specific details are scarce at present, though indications point to the tower actually being incorporated into the theme park, rather than the park being merely located at the base of the structure.
Tentatively named Amuse Tokyo Tower, the One Piece attraction will feature live events, attractions, a museum, a restaurant and an original merchandise shop.
