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.
252
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…
253
In the latest SBS, Oda said he recently can't see detailed drawings due to his terribly *astigmatic eyes*. 😥 He apologized to his audience for causing confusion about the small drawing of Killer eating something.
254
Oda's new editor Anayama joined Shueisha in 2022, so he's most likely about 23-24 years old. Anayama means Hole Mountain. In 2009, Oda got mad to see his editor's email address was related to Gintama as a previous Gintama editor. He instantly changed it into *onepiece-the-best*🤣
255
Here are some trivia revealed in Oda's interview, his notebooks and such in ONE PIECE Magazine volume 3.😍
256
Oda (2021): Watsuki-sensei is an amazing person. The relationship between him and me is like comrades rather than just master and apprentice. I worked under him 4 months. Maybe it was the happiest moment in my entire life.🥰
257
As I said, the Five Elders spoke to Shanks in a respectful manner. Shanks also showed respect to them by *politely* saying ええ、感謝します(Yes, I appreciate that).💎 BTW, he used a casual "thank you" (Suman) to Sengoku. Suman is used against someone of equal or lesser rank.
258
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🥰

@Un4v5s8bgsVk9Xp Translation: My health hasn't improved, so I decided to spend much time on taking care of myself.
No. 399..I'm making advices to my assistants about background effects.
260
It seems Hibari already fell in love with Coby.💞 Her speech style is the same as Akainu in this chapter as well. If my theory of Hibari being his daughter is true, would Akainu get mad or..? BTW, Coby talks politely even with Blackbeard. #ONEPIECE1080 twitter.com/sandman_AP/sta…
261
Editor's blurb in the raw chapter says, "Both wings appear!", which confirms Zoro and Sanji are the wings of Pirate King. It's kinda sad that those blurbs have been omitted in the official Viz chapters.😆
262
[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…

3 days ago, Oda sent a message to the students of his hometown, Kumamoto. The purpose was to encourage students who are suffering from this current situation about COVID-19. Here is my translation of his message.👍

Got my ONE PIECE Magazine 11 that will be released tomorrow. Here is my small summary of the magazine. 😊
265
Today Oda and 2 Japanese idols named Takuya Kimura and Kazuya Kamenashi make a collaboration drawings for LINE stamp in "Johnny's Smile Up! Project". The project is supposed to be a donation for health care workers regarding COVID-19. Here is my translation of Oda’s comment.😋
266
Oda and his family drew some heartwarming One Piece stickers for a messaging app called Line in 2021.😊 Oda drew Rayleigh with his left hand. (It's not revealed which characters were drawn by his two daughters and wife other than Rayleigh.)
267
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.😂

Got my ONE PIECE Magazine 3 today. Here is my translation for Oda's message about the bonus manga "Episode Luff"😋
269
Oda has just been awarded Shin-Watanabe Prize as the producer of Red.
Oda: OP started in a small room 25 years ago with just a piece of paper. I've been wondering how far it can entertain fans. I won't be satisfied with this prize. I'll keep creating OP as a great time-killer💎

Here is my summary for Ace novel chapter 3 in ONE PIECE Magazine which was released 2 days ago. This summary is divided into 4 parts.☺️
271
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/…
272
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.😅
273
Oda is talking about Wano arc in "manga", not anime. There is no room for mistranslation at least about that line. Oda isn't good at estimating time. He was going to burn Going Merry in 2003, but it ended up coming true in 2006.😂 (source: "10th Treasures", 2007)
274
After a chapter was out, Oda asked editor Sugita if he felt unnanutral somewhere in the chapter. Sugita admitted he had felt a bit unnatural but refrained from pointing it out. Oda got mad, "Don't you dare do that again! Editor's opinion is so important as my first audience!🔥"
275
In a TV show called "Seiyuu Park" 2 days ago, Sanji's VA Hirata showed his appreciation that Oda gave him a special curtain for a backstage dressing room. The curtain says, "To Hiroaki Hirata-sama from Eiichiro Oda". 😊
Translating One Piece news randomly. Big fan of Oda's interviews.😍 I'm native Japanese🇯🇵, but I usually tweet in English.
