One Piece Film Red is still aired in Japanese theaters, but according to Oda's message 1 hour ago, Oda and his staff think it's not a good idea to drag out the film airing just to make money and they has decided Red should end in the near future.🎵

2 guests were invited in recent ONE PIECE event in Saudi Arabia. One is Shimizu (TOEI anime) and the other is Heishi (Jump editor). According to Shimizu, the ending of Wano arc will be “surprising”. 😍
Below is my summary of the interview. (source: youtu.be/UOaVt310zo4

Here is my translation of what comments mangakas and editors made about Oda before OP started.😊
179
ONE PIECE editor Naito said on Twitter live streaming 3 hours ago that Reverie will finish within the next 10 chapters. He also said that he doesn't call it Reverie "arc" since it will not last long.😋 (source: twitter.com/Eiichiro_Staff…)

Film Red interview today: Oda refused to answer the question about Figarland Family (Shanks), but he implied it'll be explained in the future. Oda initially thought Kalifa and Blueno didn't belong to CP0 and Helmeppo didn't belong to Sword, but Red staff made him change his mind.
181
The drawing of Oda's father is displayed in Oda's house.🥰 His name is Seiichiro Oda (尾田精一郎), an artist. Seiichiro means "energetic first-born son". On the other hand, Eiichiro (栄一郎) means "glorious first-born son" as in his glorious manga.😍
182
it's safe to assume that Robin meant Sanii and "another person" are important for Pirate King. And Oda already used the exact same word 両翼 in volume 73 SBS, saying both Zoro and Sanji are two wings for Luffy😊
183
According to Luffy's VA interview today, the voice recording of Film Red has already been finished. When she started talking about if Luffy meets Shanks in the film or not, the staff instantly gave her a warning.😂

In OP chapter 939, it’s revealed that Hyou was known as the Mighty Blade (豪剣). Actually this Mighty Blade term was already used in chapter 23, 195 and 467. Zoro and Ryuma are classified as Mighty Blade type. Sadly, there is a translation inconsistency in official Viz version😅
185
Film Red official storyboard: Vol.2 "Straw Hat"
It says, "What is Luffy looking at? " The storyboard consists of more than 850 pages.😍 The staff already confirmed Oda's involvement in Film Red is more than Strong World.🎖️
186
Oda, Hirohiko Araki, Gege Akutami, Gotouge, Sui Ishida and such made celebration messages to Yoshihiro Togashi exhibition that will start tomorrow.🥰 Wondering what Oda's message will be like.
187
Here is a summary of Oda’s latest interview with Yuzu, Japanese vocal group, released May 22nd 😋Thanks for the info, AU!
188
Oda celebrated Detective Conan reaching "volume 100" in the latest Jump comment. On the other hand, Gosho Aoyama, the author of Conan, said in 2019 that he'd like to have an interview with Oda. I hope their legendary interview will come true in the next Color Walk or something.😍 twitter.com/sandman_AP/sta…

2 days ago, 9 men got arrested due to poaching 800 kilograms of sea cucumbers. Reportedly their boat was called "Going Merry".😂 (thanks Kamiki-san news.goo.ne.jp/article/toon/n…) In another news last year, a suspicious guy introduced himself as "Monkey D Luffy" to police officers.😋
190
In Film Red, "Volume 4 billion" will be given to 3 million audience in theaters in Japan.🤗 But it seems this volume will not contain bonus manga like chapter 0 (Strong World), only Oda's characters' sketches etc..
191
Aside from Oda, 14 mangakas sent celebration messages to Watsuki including Kishimoto, Sorachi, Shimabukuro, Obata, Inagaki, Yabuki, Hiroyuki Takei, Yusei Matsui, Shinya Suzuki, Kazuhiro Fujita, Nobuyuki Anzai, Yasuhiro Nightow, Katsunori Matsui and Mikio Ito😋 (Thanks @nilpos)
192
Today OP editors announced that Hitetsu's age being 58 years old in Vivre Card should be fixed into "81". Hitetsu and Sukiyaki (Oden's father) share the same VA and both of them are interested in Kokeshi-dolls...
193
Both ONE PIECE color spreads and Jump cover pages for chapter 999 and 1000 can be combined. Current Jump mangakas draw many OP characters in the covers. The combined color spreads will be the "largest" in Jump history. Today's jump showed us a preview of the color spread.😍
194
Queen's line to Sanji "You're already dead." might be Oda's homage to Fist of the North Star, one of his favorite mangas considering its protagonist's signature phrase is also "You're already dead". BTW, Queen looks a bit similar to a villain named Heart-sama in FNS. 😋
195
Oda: About the final saga, I keep in mind I should fool around more.😋 Even if One Piece ends up becoming a manga where my audience complains, "Such ideas are not interesting", it can be said that it is an entertainment for me.
196
Stealth Sanji blocked King's attack in the latest chapter. In 2015, Oda said his drawing style of invisible characters is inspired by Kishimoto, Naruto's author. Here is a translation of the interview. I'm glad both great mangakas respect each other.😊
197
Oda told editor Kawashima in the first meeting, "Die for ONE PIECE". He was shocked but impressed at the same time, "Oda is really determined to die for OP." Oda keeps in mind taking 30 minute-walk every day as doctor warned him he'd have an early death unless improving health😅
198
New interview of Luffy's VA (Mayumi Tanaka) will be published in the next Jump. In 2007, Oda described her as "my mother in Tokyo". She advised Oda to eat vegetables because Oda's craving for meat was as insane as Luffy.😂 Hopefully she will reveal some interesting OP tidbits.
199
Here is my translation of Oda’s new message about OP card game that will be released in July. Oda says it will be available around the world.👍 Official website: onepiece-cardgame.com

The latest Interview of Luffy's VA is interesting. She considers Luffy was crying in his heart despite his smile when Vivi said she can't go with Straw Hats. I wonder what Oda thinks about her interpretation.😉 (source: one-piece.com/news/detail/20…
Translating One Piece news randomly. Big fan of Oda's interviews.😍 I'm native Japanese🇯🇵, but I usually tweet in English.
