[Lost in the official translation] Garp's attack Blue Hole is written as 海底落下 in the Japanese chapter, which means *falling to the bottom of the ocean*. Oda might be implying Kuzan may fall into the sea if not for his freezing ability.🥺 #ONEPIECE1081 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Official translation about Zoro's bounty is different from Japanese version. His bounty is 1100001100 in JP, while Viz official says 1.111 billion. Hopefully, OP official Twitter account will clarify it.😅

Here is my summary of Oda’s TV interview today. Summary is divided to multiple tweets.👍
Oda said he would like to finish OP in 4-5 years (again). He rarely goes to Jump office where today he witnessed his manuscript of chapter 1 for the first time in 23 years.😆
129
Oda talked about why he decided to become a mangaka, not film director although he loves films. Here is my summary of the interview.☺️ #oldoda

Today is Zoro's birthday.🤗 November is called "Shimotsuki" in Japanese. Here are impressive Oda's quotes:
I want to drink sake with Zoro. (2016)
Anime staff have a tendency to make Luffy and Zoro too talkative. (2012)
Don't speak ill of Zoro. (2011)

Here is my full translation for Oda's message in Jump Festa 2018 today😍
132
Yesterday, Oda asked #ChatGPT about the next story.🤣 "Hi, I'm the author of One Piece. I can't come up with nice next developments of OP. Would you consider a super amazing story on behalf of me?😋"
GPT: How about Shadow King appearing in front of Straw Hats and trying to kidnap
133
OP Magazine today: In chapter 1000, Oda initially thought it'd be cool if Luffy said, "I won't forgive anyone who hurts my friend!", the same line as Shanks in chapter 1, but he changed his mind and went with "I'm a man who's gonna be King of the Pirates!!"🥰
134
Here are Oda and Straw Hat VAs' heartwarming pics in Jump Festa 14-17 years ago. I wonder what Oda's Jump Festa message will be like this year.🥰
135
According to today's TV show "Mr. Sunday", Luffy having no thought bubbles was one of the reasons why some Shueisha editors rejected OP many times before serialization, like "Kids, Jump main target audience can't understand what this protagonist is thinking."😅
136
Japanese fans pointed out some Sword members have family related to Marines. For example, Drake and Helmeppo's fathers and Kujaku's grandmother. Prince Gurus may have a high-ranking Marine in his family. The theory about Hibari being Akainu's daughter is popular in JP fandom.😍
137
Five Elders called Shanks with the pronoun 君 (kimi), which indicates they have respect to Shanks to a certain extent. Instead, they call Akainu with the pronoun お前 (omae), which sounds rather impolite. In short, they respect Shanks more than Akainu.😍 twitter.com/Throneneo/stat…

Oda's TV interview with Gosho Aoyama 10 minutes ago:
- Only "cowards" can survive in Jump. When drawing manga, I always try thinking, "This chapter isn't entertaining enough yet!"
- My manga got popular worldwide, but I don't think I'm a special person.🥰
139
ONE PIECE editor Naito talked about Wano arc and Stampede 4 days ago. According to Oda, Wano arc is a story which is heavily related to the final chapter of OP. Here is my summary. BTW, the last pic is a small spoiler about how many pages next chapter (963) will contain.
140
Official Viz in the early days sometimes made mistranslations. In Japanese chap.1, Roo called Shanks with insult, "Calm down, you *damn* Captain!"(この野郎) I can't imagine King/Katakuri would insult their bosses. It tells us how friendly Red Hair Pirates are with each other.🥰
141
Preview of Oda’s TV interview next week is released today. It says Oda has been eager to draw Wano since long ago. Oda says there remain a lot of super-entertaining stuffs he wants to draw. (Another interview before implied Oda wanted to draw Wano since the beginning of OP.) 😋
142
Oda: I was super excited when drawing the quarrel between Luffy and Usoop. Their speech easily popped up in my mind one after another.
Luffy's VA: Usopp is a nice character, right?
Oda: Yeah, my audience can feel close to Usopp since most characters around him are superhumans.
143
Oda asked the film Red script writer, "It'd be entertaining if Doflamingo and Crocodile appear in the film." But the writer rejected his offer.😅 I was hoping to see them in theaters..
144
Oda and Gosho Aoyama (Detective Conan) will have an interview in Shonen Jump on 25th July.😍 Aoyama said years ago that he would like to have a talk with Oda and it has finally come true.💎 twitter.com/Eiichiro_Staff…
145
Luffy and Blackbeard fighting in the initial Oda's sketch of the volume cover hypes me up, but I wonder when it will come true. Will it happen right after Egghead or Elabaf or maybe around 2030..?🦄
146
Today Road to Laugh Tale Oda's sketch revealed Kaido's mysterious hidden words to Luffy were "The more you laugh, the stronger you will get!" 😍This part was not well handled in the official translation. The booklet also says, "Imagination is the source of Nika power."💪 twitter.com/sandman_AP/sta…
147
🔔Red Spoiler: According to Gorousei (Five Elders), Shanks belongs to "Fearland Family". Maybe it means Shanks was a member of the Celestial Dragons..?😍
148
Oda: Shanks is not a perfect cool guy. The most important scene in chapter 1 is where Shanks was at a loss when Luffy got abducted. Anyone can draw just a cool-looking character. But Beckman just smiles and supports him. Thanks to their relationship, Red Hair Pirates can exist🥰
149
The number of Togashi's followers has exceeded 2 million.🥰 In 2017, Oda showed his appreciation to Togashi in a message to young amateur mangakas. Here is my translation.😋

According to today's OP anime, the voice actor of Hitetsu and Kouzuki Sukiyaki is the same person, which may mean...😎
Translating One Piece news randomly. Big fan of Oda's interviews.😍 I'm native Japanese🇯🇵, but I usually tweet in English.
