One Piece side comics is an umbrella term which applies to a variety of short (less than 5 pages each) manga drawn by Eiichiro Oda and featuring the characters of One Piece, but unrelated to the plot of the series. This is in contrast to the chapter title page mini-arcs, which are part of the main story, and "Romance Dawn," which was a prototype for One Piece. These comics are also distinguished by being drawn in Super Deformed (SD) style, giving all the characters large heads and tiny bodies.
One Piece BLUE 4-Panel Comics
The first appearance of these comics is in the book One Piece BLUE: Grand Data File. Included among the various information sections were 7 new comic strips, referred to collectively as "Luffy Pirates 4-Panel Theater" (ルフィ海賊団四コマ劇場, Rufi Kaizokudan Yon-Koma Gekijõ). Each strip featured one of the seven Straw Hat Pirates in absurd situations. Of particular note here was the comic devoted to Tony Tony Chopper, entitled "Justice's Ally 'Chopper Man'" (正義の味方「チョッパーマン」, Seigi no Mikata 'Choppāman'), which is the first appearance of the "Chopper Man" character. Here, he is asked to save the people from a rampaging giant robot, but becomes lost in a daydream about flying through the sky on its back.
"Log" Compilation Bonus Comics
The more well-known group of One Piece side-comics came from the Log series. The Logs were magazine-format compilations released between the end of 2005 and April 2006, which covered the beginning of the series up until the end of the Baroque Works saga. These short bonus comics were featured at the end of the 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 7th Logs, and advertised as "Brand-New from Oda-sensei! Special Manga" (尾田先生描きおろし!スペシャルマンガ, Oda-sensei Kakioroshi! Supesharu Manga). These comics were brought to television as "Straw Hat Theater" (麦わら劇場, Mugiwara Gekijō), airing as shorts alongside One Piece episodes 279 through 283 in October 2006. The episodes of the show during this period were made up of filler and flashback material, so it is generally believed to have been a move on the part of Toei Animation and Fuji TV to give viewers an incentive to keep watching, until the start of the fight against CP9.
Report Time
The first of these comics, "Report Time," was published in November 2005 in The 2nd Log: "SANJI". Its anime version aired alongside One Piece episode 280, on 8 October 2006. Of the bonus comics that appeared in the Logs, it is the only one to feature Luffy and crew in-character, as themselves. The one addition to the cast is a reporter with a moustache and glasses, who interviews the Straw Hat Pirates about what life was like before Sanji joined the crew. The reporter's favorite phrase is "I'm so happy, I can't express it in words."
Obahan Time
This is about what the crew would be like if they were obahan. It is also a chapter to see who is the strongest obahan.This chapter stars the whole Straw Hat crew.
No-Code-of-Honor Time
This is a fight between Luffy (Don Luffyone), Zoro (Don Zorosoa) and Sanji (Don Sanjino). They send out their assistants, Usopp (Usotoja), Tony Tony Chopper (Choparini), Nami (Namimore)and Nico Robin (Robitta).
