Well... One example is this.
O: Uhhh, a few volumes ago, I said that I had been getting a fair number of
questions about international versions of One Piece, but for
some silly reason, the author, myself, had really no idea either.

O: From Hokkaido, P.N. SanjiLove-san.
This is a psychological test. The results will be on page 186.

And in the SBS corner, how come everybody calls you Oda-sensei, or
Eiichan... (or what ever name there is...) Is it simply just a nickname for
you...?
I'm sorry, I just get sonfused too easil-...ZzzzzzZzzzz....
Are you really under the impression that I'm somehow soliciting e-mails from hapless Japanese readers, posing as Eiichiro Oda to sucker in dumb kids like some kind of mall Santa? Maybe I'm somehow sneaking my webpage into the pages of Weekly Jump and siphoning off fanmail from Oda himself, like a giant fame-sucking leech? Perhaps I'm some kind of megalomaniacal nutcase who is writing himself questions from fans and then answering them pretending to be the author? No, nobody is dumb enough to think that. I'm disappointed that you haven't been able to distinguish delusion from fact, and I expect you to turn in an essay on how sorry you are and how next time you will be able to tell the difference between an actual conversation and a piece of translated text that originated from the pages of a book. Double spaced, five pages, your deadline is next Monday. Dismissed.
