ONE PIECE chapter 928 is officially out. A beautiful character called Komurasaki appears in this chapter. She may be the woman Oda was talking about in “26th Log” book published about 1 year ago.😍 He said, “I should make a beautiful woman appear in *there* in the future.!!” 😎
77
Here is my full translation of Oda's message in Jump Festa today. i wonder what will happen in Reverie.😍
78
In the latest chapter of ONE PIECE, it’s revealed that Drake belongs to Tobi Roppo, 6 strongest Headliners. Tobi Roppo is one of Kabuki techniques, which is probably why Viz left it untranslated. I'd like to compile Oda's themes in Wano arc🤠.
79
Some people may wonder why Oda used flashy colors for Komurasaki and Otoko in the cover of ONE PIECE volume 92. Here is my translation of Oda's comment on this question.😇
80
Here are some trivial information about Grandpa Hyo and Queen’s pun in ONE PIECE chapter 935. This week I'll post another 2 tweets about Momonosuke and Oda's comment.😋
81
Momonosuke said weird word "sunach/snatch" in ONE PIECE chapter 934 and Kiku prohibited him from saying it again. Here is a theory about what “sunach” means.😅
82
Editor Sugita retired from OP editor last week and Mr. Takano has become a new OP manga editor. Here is my summaries of Takano’s interview last summer and live streaming between editor Sugita and Naito last week😋
83
Gosho Aoyama, author of Detective Conan, revealed his desire to have an interview with Oda as comrades for weekly manga and anime. Aoyama mentioned it in “da Vinci” magazine today. He assumes that both ONE PIECE and Detective Conan will reach volume 100 around the same time.😊
84
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😅
85
Chapter 939 shows Oda’s wisdom because not only the title but also Zoro's line is based on a proverb. Zoro stops worrying about comrades, saying ship won’t go forward with too many captains.. It is based on Japanese proverb, "Too many captains cause a ship to climb up a mountain"
86
Tonoyasu being Kozuki Sukiyaki, Oden's father is an interesting theory. Japanese people call Tono (殿) when addressing Shogun. Besides, both Tonoyasu (トの"康") and Ieyasu Tokugawa (徳川家"康"), the first Shogun in Edo era, share the same kanji 康😋 twitter.com/newworldartur/…

Here is a summary of Oda’s latest interview with Yuzu, Japanese vocal group, released May 22nd 😋Thanks for the info, AU!
88
Today July 22nd is the official ONE PIECE day. Here is my summary of editors’ Live-streaming event aired 2 hours ago😋 (source: youtube.com/watch?v=x1x-JW…)
89
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
90
Zoro was born in Shimotsuki Village. Shimotsuki Ryuma, Ushimaru and Yasuie lived in Wano. Then, what does Shimotsuki mean? In Japanese, it means "November" in which Zoro was born, but I believe another important meaning is hiding behind it😇
91
In OP Stampede, official romanization of Raftel was revealed to be Laugh Tale. It reminds me of the lyrics of Binks’ Sake. Here is my compilation of interesting theories about Laugh Tale from Japanese fandoms.😋 It contains small spoiler regarding talk between Luffy and Bullet.
92
1 hour ago, Japanese Youtubers called Fischer's posted a video of Oda’s studio. They held an interview with Oda. Here is my summary of the interview. Oda said he’d like to finish OP in 5 years. He kindly gave 7 autographs to each of the Youtubers.😍 Video: youtu.be/sTgvB0Vpyxk
93
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
94
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.
95
The spelling of Raftel turned out to be Laugh Tale in Stampede 5 months before manga. Plus, the talk between Roger and Rayleigh this week was already shown in Stampede. Maybe some people think they kinda got spoiled by anime..? Here is my summary of Oda and editor’s comment.😇
96
Kurozumi elders' names are revealed in this week’s chapter of ONE PIECE. One is Semimaru (Barrier DF) and the other is Higurashi (Clone DF). Then, what do their names mean? Here is a theory about Oda's intention.😋
97
Today's message from Oda : ONE PIECE chapter breaks will increase so that me and my staffs don't get infected by Corona virus. Not that my current health isn't good. I'm drawing OP every day as usual.😀
98
2 hours ago, Oda asked his editor, “Have you noticed hashtag about OP is trending on Twitter now?” Stampede was aired on JP satellite TV today. YouTube live-streaming with anime staffs and editor commenting about each scene was also aired. I wonder how often Oda checks Twitter😍
99
Zoro’s VA made a funny joke. He spent much time watching dubbed films at home due to COVID-19 going around. He got mad every time he heard Sanji’s voice in those films. (Sanji’s VA appears in many dubbed films.) In 2018, Sanji’s VA asked him, “How much is your bounty, Zoro?”😂
100
5 minutes ago, ONE PIECE editor Takano revealed in live streaming that he was moved to tears after he read next chapter (986).😭
It was the first time for him to shed tears since he became OP editor. I wonder what next chapter will be like..😍
