I started reading Shonen Jump in the 1980s, and I believe Kuma’s backstory is the most touching of all time. The fact that we can live in the same era as a great writer like Oda is truly a blessing. May Oda be in good health forever.🙏 #ONEPIECE1102

Around 30 years ago, for a group photo shoot, all the Shonen Jump mangakas took a bus to a hot spring inn, stayed overnight, and had a big party. But someone pointed out, 'If this bus falls off a cliff, Shonen Jump is over,' and so the custom ended.😭

Even during his hospitalization in 2013, Oda never stopped drawing the Dressrosa arc. He created this color spread in a hospital room. Kishimoto, Naruto mangaka, visited the room to cheer up Oda. He was surprised that Oda was still drawing.

In an interview 10 minutes ago, the legendary Dragon Ball editor Torishima said it is a pity that, unlike in the early days, One Piece editors these days can no longer disagree with Oda. On the other hand, he praised Oda for his passion and excellence in character creation.🤩

In 2016, Oda strongly advised the Film Gold staff to add a scene in which Sanji was secretly worried about Zoro, who was about to be executed. On the other hand, Zoro was worried about Sanji in chapter 815.🥰

In the latest chapter, Hibari's Japanese speech style is inevitably lost in translation. It is called "Hiroshima dialect", the same as Akainu. Considering only these 2 characters speak that dialect in OP, Oda might be implying Hibari is Akainu's daughter or something.😊 #OP1061

In 2016, Oda made a drawing for Gintama exhibition. He jokingly wrote, "I reject this collaboration between Luffy and Gin-san because I can't imagine them putting their arms around each other's shoulders." Sorachi's response was hilarious.🤣

Here's my translation of Oda's new celebration message to Tite Kubo, Bleach mangaka. Hopefully their interview will come true some day.😁🏁

Oda drew the protagonist of Vagabond by Takehiko Inoue in 2009. And Inoue drew Luffy in 2007. Inoue praised Oda in the drawing, "When I read OP for the first time, I was sure that there was no need to worry about OP. I wish him good luck as he follows the path he believes in."🥰

Around 1999, when the One Piece anime began, Oda went to a restaurant near his studio and witnessed a child sitting near him watching the OP anime with his mouth open in concentration. Oda decided that he could never betray these children.🥰

Oda: I usually don't mention this since my fans may be disappointed, but some important plots were not planned well in advance. I think it'd be even more amazing if retconned plots miraculously end up working well.🥰 *Wonder if Shanks appearing in Wano was retconned as well..?

Oda (2012): Hody had baseless racism against humans. Maybe it is hard for little kids to understand, but I'm just happy if only they will understand it when they grow up.😊

Oda: If you wanna revive a dead character, don't kill him first. I've hated it since childhood because I felt the author's intention. Did he revive the character just because he is popular?🤔 Toriyama: I keep my manga story simple and try not to unnecessarily make it touching.💧

According to Usopp's VA today, Kaido's VA had not read the manga, so when the staff informed him that his role in the anime was over (at the moment?) after recording, he was shocked and said, "Wait, did I lose?"🤣🤣 Luffy 's VA was also surprised to hear the fight was over.
