SBS- Just the bare bones for now. I woke up late.
Those eyelashes are Iva's real eyelashes and Death Wink is NOT Haki.
Someone noticed that Saldeath's pitchfork was a flute and Oda admits that he didn't want to get caught up describing the detail of Saldeath's flute.
Why do New'comers' wear tights? Because they're there. Same as a mountain would climb a mountain before them.
Granny Nyon has the same Butt-Butt Chin as Franky.
Someone comments on Oda's inner flap comment from Vol 54 and worries that Dr. Kureha might die next year (because 'people lived to 140') Oda says she's safe. People that only have a year left wouldn't show their belly button in a snow country.
Wow.
Summary of question: Reader asks why Oda doesn't do things like, "Design a DF to be used in the manga!", like some others do. They suggest some dumb fruits. Oda's reply from when he gets to the point:
Yeah concerning gathering [ideas]. I don't do it. I don't want anything. Maybe it's a little cold of me but I do't want anyone else's ideas. My editors change from time to time but the very first thing I say to them never changes, "Don't even try to give me any ideas." "I thought of all the people and of all the stories!", is the kind of confidence I strive for. If you depend on someone for something you'e bound to do it again and if you fail because of them you're bound to claim it's their fault. If it goes well, it's because of your effort, if you fail, it's your own fault. That's what I like. So long as it isn't related to the main story I'm always looking for ideas. Like the Crew Member with animals covers [between mini-arcs]. I'm looking for gags for that. If you were to write me something like, "Please draw this character doing such andsuch with this animal.", I'd love to draw it.
You already know the sex changes although has anyone translated the lines?
Luffy hid NOT inside Hancock's cloak, but inside her China dress. Whew.
If a tanuki and reindeer got married they'd have a Chopper.
This is a long answer and kinda funny but I'm out of time so the short of it is, Croc was able to get his cigar and clothes from New'comers' who have been gathering that kind of stuff. It may not be his own.
A dream called 'ambition' is what's inside Hannyabal's chin.
You know the nationalities.
The 'ba' in Japanese for Death Wink is written with three marks [ba'''] instead of two indicating the 'b' sound instead of 'h'. A reader asks how to pronounce it. Oda says you need to say it so hard as spew more than three drops of spit out when you say it: "BACHYOOON!"
SBS finished
Holy fuck! Lots of interview stuff at the end for Strong World. I can't even read it now. Latez!
