Oda-chi alwayz taking a break ONCE in every 3 weekz of giving us hiz juicy manga manga no mi.......

I loved the last chapter. Senor Pink is just sooo awesome (wipes tear from eyes), but I gotta say, I always thought Sanji was the one with the most manliness. I doubt Zoro would have the patience for him, Frankie is getting some long overdue character development and I liked it.

Erm...is it possible that Doffy isn't as big an asswipe as we all assumed?? He had Baby 5 and Pink all loyal as feck to him and he stood up for Diamanté pretty quickly...Oda, you better make sure I forget my heart which aches for HxH oh.

Break or no break, filler or no filler. ODA MUST RELEASE O. Anime catching up fast.

Break is over!

Who will be the next Straw Hat?

None 4 naw until the nex ARC.......

I watch the anime series, I would like bartholemeo to be the next straw hat nakama, atleast his barrier will help straw hats

I've watched a youtube Video Oda says the Next Straw Hat would be a female.Of all theories,i've seen and watched,i would prefer Jewelry Bonney to be the next Straw Hat.

I hope sge escaped from Sakazuki 'cuz i really want to see her again.

the 1 legged gladiator is faster than most 3 legged dudes and what the hell is option E, probably zoro will open his eye (and I bet its not to reveal a sharingan).

Just started bleach... Was boring (too boring) at the beginning, but after Ichigo unleashed Bankai, shii became interesting..... And after I saw Hitsugaya Tonshiro sama in action, I fell in love ✔
I'm currently in episode 105...
Daiguren Hyorinmaru may just be more awesome than Tensa Zangetsu

And Zabimaru has to be the most useless Zampaktou

jewelry boinnie?? She eats alots just like luffy,, but I'd like to see her as the 10th member of the straw hat, but Most people think it will be Rebecca or Violet, Though i dont like rebecca, she's too weak to be one of them. I suggest Bellamy or Batholomeo..

This chapter was okay, nothing more. Though Jinbei's adventures on the FrontPage are rather interesting. I'm tired of this arc abeg, it gotta end.

I've seen it. . .i missed or must have forgotten when i first watched it.There will definitely be a Zou arc and maybe a Kaido or Big Mom arc right after.I like it 'cuz Law will spend more time with the Straw Hats.

Blackbeard hasn't demonstrated the use of Conq's Haki yet.I don't feel he needs that power.
He's already a formidable foe to Luffy.Before he ate the devil fruit of Darkness,he was of equal strength with the commanders.Then he adds Yami Yami + Gura Gura. . .abeg e dun do

What matters most is Luffy's power,Mihawk knows it and he will surpass all of them. Wiiihahahaha

So far in this arc,only Don Chinjao has Conq's Haki. . .not too sure if Doflamingo has.

I don't want Rebecca or Violet. . .if it's a lady then Bonney it is.Rebecca has no reason to leave her kingdom just like Vivi.Violet's DF powers are interesting but not really needed.

doffy doflamingo has it, In Punk Hazard Arc, when doffy attacks vice Admiral Smoker, he used conqueror's haki on smoker's Men(The G5) Marines..

For now, I just want to see how straw hats will fight The donquixote doflamingo family, they are trapped in Dressrosa for now, but with Sabo and his subordinates,Straw Hats, and maybe Heart pirates(the trafalgar's).I think they surely gonna take down doflamingo..


New Admiral fujitora is one hell of a guy,,,

onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Wano_Country

Region:

New World

The Wano Country is a nation in the New World. It is a country not affiliated with the World Government.

Wano Country has its own warriors, the samurai (侍, samurai?), who are swordsmen so strong that not even the Marines go near them.⁠
[1]⁠ It was first mentioned by Hogback, as Ryuma (Zoro fought him @ Thriller back arc) was from there.⁠
[2]⁠ In the Wano Country, women are expected to be modest and speak gracefully and quietly. In addition, the chonmage is a common hairstyle.⁠
[3]⁠ Aside from Ryuma, the only other known residents are Kin'emon, his son Momonosuke, and Kanjuro.

History

After his death, the legendary samurai Ryuma was buried in Wano Country. His legacy made him a national hero.⁠
[4]⁠ At one point in time, Portgas D. Ace (maybe Izo smuggled Ace then: it's possible) went to Wano Country and learned how to make a kasa, later making one for Little Oars Jr.⁠[5]⁠

Kin'emon was born in a place in Wano Country called Kuri (九里, Kuri?).⁠[6]⁠

Some time after Kin'emon was born, someone robbed Ryuma's grave and made off with Ryuma's corpse as well as his sword, Shusui. This incident was considered a disaster that brought the country to its knees. When Kin'emon saw that Zoro had Shusui, he thought Zoro was the culprit.

Trivia

The name is a pun, as "Wa no Kuni (和の国, Wa no Kuni? literally meaning "Country of Harmony"" is used as a name for Japan.

The fact that the swordsmen in this country are called "samurai" and its closed-door policy are also a reference to Japan in their Feudal era.

The location Kuri means "Nine Li", Li being a unit of measurement originating from China, but adopted in Korea and Japan, roughly being 500, 393, and 3927 meters, respectively. Since Wano Country is based on Japan, Kuri may be translated as "35,345 meters" or "21.96 miles".

""Some of selected Oda's Interviews""


"I don't care whatever readers complain in the middle stage of a story because I am confident of highlight scenes being interesting." Manga Omo! (2002)


There are at least 15 notebooks that include Oda's ideas about Dressrosa arc. Jump Festa 2015 (2014)


"The story's end hasn't changed once since the beginning. The problem is that I haven't been able to really digest all the things that are happening along the way toward the end." Inoue Takehiko Pia (2009) [Translated by gottsuiiyan]



"I just can’t help but draw a lot. The weekly format is set at 19 pages, but from the creator perspective I want to move the story along faster. I end up jamming as much as I can in there. There is also wanting to finish faster so I can relax." Inoue Takehiko Pia (2009) [Translated by gottsuiiyan]



And so One Piece was born and its popularity spread like wildfire but did you ever think it would be this big?

ODA: Well of course I knew that if I drew pirate stuff it would be interesting but I never thought it would happen that fast. It instantly spread and flared up in popularity. But since many things in this world have a way of vanishing before you know it, it’s pretty scary when I think about it. MEN'S NON-NO (2009) [Translated by Greg]


John Irons: What is Luffy's mother like? Was she beautiful? What happened to her? Did she die when Luffy was a baby?

ODA: I think she's alive. I'm still thinking hard about this. [Laughs] But if she does appear in the story, then she'll be a very tough-looking woman. And strict. There's no way that she's a beautiful mother. She's got this typical middle-aged woman's permed hair. Speaking about families, I did a backstory for Nico Robin and her family. That was actually the first time for me to draw a mother in a character's memory. Up until that point, I'd never drawn a blood relation. In Chopper's case, he's called a son even though he's not blood-related. So I've put in a message there saying that you can still call someone who's not related by blood your family. American Shonen Jump (December 2009 )



"The whole world will be thrown into turmoil in the final arc."　Asahi Evening Newspaper (26 November 1999)


Questioner: Many are looking forward to what happens next in One Piece could you give us a message for them?

ODA: One thing that keeps me motivated to keep drawing One Piece is that I want to draw the last chapter. The last chapter is amazing! I imagine a final chapter that will make Marinefold arc look like nothing!


Questioner: Seriously?!

ODA: The Marinefold arc really felt like a side trip to me. I didn't expect it to be so popular. So I don't know how readers will take this one. But the thing I think is interesting will be in that last chapter. Until then I would like as many of the fans as possible to stick with me. Eternal Log (2012)

Oda had no intention that Shanks lost his arm, but after an editor told him that the story was not interesting enough, Oda decided to cut his arm off. ONE PIECE Grand Countdown 2 (2010)

In Sabaody, Oda didn't intend to introduce supernovas at first, but only 3 hours after the editor advised him to make the stroy more exciting, Oda wrote a new story in which supernovas appeared. ONE PIECE Grand Countdown 2 (2010)
