Both the latest chapter title “Echoing the impermanence of all things”and Orochi’s line “All who put on airs will be brought low.” are based on “The Tale of the Heike”, famous Japanese literature, written more than 700 years ago.😇(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_…)

Oda: My favorite food is cheap chopped pork from a discount store over rice with soy sauce. I don't like expensive marbled meat.
*When Oda holds a home party, he prepares tons of super-expensive meat from a famous steak restaurant to entertain his guests, as in the pic below.🍖

The pic says: Some months ago, Oda's editors asked him, "Why not take breaks for about a month since you're so busy this summer?" Oda "What? Breaks? Don't you know how much my audience waits for my manga!?😡.... Well, I accept your offer!!😍"

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.😋

Got my official raw Jump. Here are some info revealed in a special manga about Oda's personality drawn by Toriko's author.🙂

Here is my translation of Oda’s comments about his color spreads along with my summary of his interview in Color Walk 9. I'm surprised Oda kept in mind that he shouldn't make a girlfriend to focus on his work when the serialization started..😂
282
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😍
283
Here is my summary for ONE PIECE editor Naito and Sugita's live streaming several hours ago.😍 (source: pscp.tv/w/1nAJEWoAmlgKL)

Here is my summary for Ace novel chapter 2 in ONE PIECE Magazine volume 2😍

Oda said in the TV show that he is jealous of Straw Hats since they're enjoying their journey. He added he's determined to go on a trip every day after OP ends. When Oda was young, he sat by his father and drew an oil-painting of Luffy.😍

Oda's first editor Asada (97-2001) left Oda's latest manuscript in a shop by mistake. Shueisha has a rule: editors instantly get fired if they lose manga manuscripts. He hurried to the shop and luckily found it. He recalled in 2017 it was the worst mistake he had ever made.😅
287
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..
288
Oda submits his manga 14 days before official release date. Printing process of Shonen Jump is finished 7 days before official release date

@Un4v5s8bgsVk9Xp Translation: I have no choice but to stand up when coloring my current drawings. Besides, I have to stand up when drawing a line of the panels. I can't keep my posture even for 10 minutes, so I have no choice but to roam around. No choice.😥

Databook description pages were not written by Shueisha editor/Oda confirmed by Greg, so it might be a good idea to take it with a grain of salt.😊 Japanese fans don't use them during discussions. About the validity of Vivre Cards, here is Greg's opinion: forums.arlongpark.net/post/4027253

- Oda's recent studio in the TV show
- Tons of Oda's idea notebooks including "Wano vol. 9".
- Huge granade at his studio.😂

Oda: Cutting off scenes does happen every chapter due to pages. I made comments in this magazine, but it's not that I have "regrets". I'm fully satisfied when submitting my manuscripts. Cutting off scenes simply means I don't require them. All chapters are "epic" for me.🤗 twitter.com/sandman_AP/sta…

Here is my translation of Oda's message yesterday about upcoming ONE PIECE books next month. By the way, Oda's TV interview will be aired in 7-9 hours.🥰

Years ago, 15 young mangakas including Oda held a year-end party. Oda went home in the middle of it. When the party is over, they noticed Oda already finished having the check without saying any words.😋

Here is my additional summary for Oda's interview in ONE PIECE Magazine Volume 1 which I didn't mention yesterday.😋

In 2009, Chopper's VA Ikue Otani said she has been a very good friend with Usopp's VA and she doesn't mind taking a bath with him if he wants. Usopp's VA replied, "Well, I'm married…😅"
297
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...
298
Today .@ochimusha108 kindly confirmed it is chapter 986 that editor Takano moved to tears about. Takano shedded tears maybe because he empathized with Red Scabbards attacking Kaido, which reminds me of Tsumegeri Guards in Alabasta who shedded tears when attacking Crocodile.😥

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😋
