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.😀

A guy, who won the One Piece Knowledge King quiz competition, recently received Oda's drawing of Nami with Enel's ability.👑😍

Oda (1998): When Shanks appears frequently in manga, you can assume that One Piece has entered the final saga. 😍

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..😍

Oda(2019): One Piece is not a *bond of Straw Hats*. I hate that kind of thing. When I was a kid, I was not happy with the ending of The Wizard of Oz, that the adventure is itself a treasure. That story was unacceptable. Luffy has a great journey, so give him a proper treasure.👑 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Today I visited Oda's hometown Kumamoto. Before his debut, he worked in a steak restaurant "Baratei" here. Baratie in OP is based on it. According to the owner-chef, Oda broke many plates and ate food without permission like Luffy.😂 Took some pics.

Today a OP fan from India appeared in a TV show and obtained a straw hat with Oda's signature. Shanks' VA gave it to him like chapter 1. Here is my translation of Oda’s reply to his fan letter.😊

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)

When creating Film Red, Oda asked the film staff, "Now that OP is near the final saga, it's time to tell you guys about all important events that will happen until the end of the story." But all staff instantly declined his offer, saying they don't want to get spoiled too much.😂

Oda: Pay attention to Luffy. (2021)
Next time Nika appears, he'll show his face. (2021)
Audience won't be satisfied if Luffy beats Kaido with just a strong punch. (2016)
Skypiea party is his 3rd favorite in the series, where the same SFX was used as "drums of liberation"😆(2020)
17
Funnily enough, Luffy is mentioned in an English textbook for Japanese students.😂
18
According to Oda's message in Jump Festa today, Shanks will begin to move in 2021. Oda also said he was impressed with Kimetsu no Yaiba getting super popular in Japan.😍
19
After Naruto ended, Kishimoto told Oda that he can now take a walk with his kid on a sunny day whenever he wanted. Oda was so depressed to hear that but he was motivated at the same time to draw OP for the future where he can take a walk anytime.🥰(2018)

Oda (1999): I've already decided on the last panel and how the last chapter will be. In the final saga, I'll focus on not only Straw Hats but also on *events happening in the whole world*.✨ The problem is how many years it will take to start the final saga..

Takao Saito, mangaka of Golgo 13, has passed away at the age of 84. In 2013, Oda made a drawing to celebrate its 45-year-serialization. Below are tribute drawings by Oda, Naoki Urasawa and Takehiko Inoue.😌

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…)

After the release of One Piece Volume 1 in 1997, Oda and his editor were worried about whether his first volume would sell well. They decided to hide in a bookstore and watch the customers. When they saw a boy buying the OP volume, Oda and his editor shouted with joy. 🥰

Official Viz usually provides excellent translations, but in the latest chapter, they made a mistranslation about Kaido's important line.🤔 It should be translated like,
Kaido: The more precarious the situation is, the more you laugh. "And" the more you laugh, you....
Luffy: ?

Here is my translation of Oda’s heartwarming message in ONE PIECE Color Walk 9 released today.😋
