One of the Straw Hat Pirates will become the official mascot for the charity organization “Doctors Without Borders.” Tony Tony Chopper will not only be a doctor in the anime in the future.
Who will be the mascot for what? The character Tony Tony Chopper has been revealed as an “official supporter” by the charity organization “Doctors Without Borders.” There was also a special illustration by the series creator Eiichiro Oda.
The new position of the Straw Hat Pirate will officially be announced in the upcoming issue of the magazine Weekly Shono Jump
. The magazine will be released on March 24, 2026.
This is what the specially crafted illustration of Tony Tony Chopper for Doctors Without Borders looks like:
The organization Doctors Without Borders consists of a group of doctors from various countries who provide medical emergency assistance in conflict and disaster areas. They are metaphorically borderless
, as the organization operates across national borders.
Not only will Tony Chopper appear in the charity organization, but also in the live-action series of One Piece on Netflix:
