Abstract

This article aims to explore the portrayal of money beliefs in One Piece anime. One Piece is a globally influential anime among teenagers and young adults. This study seeks to provide valuable insights into the intersections of popular culture and personal finance, using the Arlong Park arc as a convincing and rich source of analysis that combine wealth, values, and emotional resonance. This is qualitative descriptive research. Data were collected by watching and taking notes at anime One Piece –Arlong Park Arc. Structural analysis of the narrative method was used to analyze the data. The results found that among four concepts of money beliefs, the anime was dominated by money worship and money status. This research also found positive behavior from characters who keep the value over the money. The portrayal of Nami’s emotional entanglement shows her dedication to her village, which has been destroyed by Arlong Pirates. The restoration of the village is her driving force to be a wealthy person.
