WHY THE STRAW HAT?

Gen Z has turned fiction into reality. One Piece's story of pirates pursuing freedom against impossible odds now flies above real protests. The Straw Hat flag represents a generation refusing to accept the world as it is, fighting instead for the world as it should be.

Symbol of Freedom

The flag represents the pursuit of dreams and freedom against all odds, resonating with protesters fighting for their rights worldwide.

Unity in Diversity

Like the diverse Straw Hat crew, protesters from different backgrounds unite under a common cause for justice and change.

Never Give Up

The crew's determination to never abandon their dreams mirrors the resilience of movements that persist despite adversity.
