      Congrats to One Piece 15 year anniversary! Eat your favorite meat, and go on for another 15 years!

      This was (one of known) Kishimoto’s messages to Oda on the past 15 years anniversary.

      Tbh, when I read it I didn’t know if Kishimoto was congratulating Oda or if he was being sarcastic, … I mean, 15 years more to know what the One Piece is, and to revel all black century secrets, raftel, ancient weapons… My God, could I wat that much? … Well at the moment, I have no problems to keep reading One Piece for a long time…, only that I hope to be alive to know the end.

      But to think about all those years, makes me wonder about the time and about the fact that to be reading a story for 10 or even more years it is a fact that has a meaning in my live.

      So, what could you do, or get or lose or win while the end comes? And what was you doing when OP began?

      15 years ago I was finishing my studies in Philosophy, and getting a job as a teacher... in 5 or 10 years I could learn Japanese and read the final chapter in its original language.

        When One Piece began, I wasn't born yet. Only a month later when your future leader-er, rather, I was born. I was born exactly one month after One Piece began.

          1997… Hmm. I was 5 then, so I was probably staring blankly and drooling.

          When One Piece ends I will probably be doing the same thing.

              Hmm….I was 14. So, I think I was doing varsity tennis in school. Just trying to survive that crappy school.

              I guess when it ends...I have no idea. Hopefully traveling.

                    I was 9 when One Piece began. Did not discover it until 2005 when i was 16 though. When One Piece is over i hope the have the fictional story i am working on come to life and taken off to become popular. Right now its just a bunch of ideas and the story has not been written yet, gonna probably reach out to my artist friends soon for some help.

                        LOL I can see where FelRes is coming from though. Us guys in our early to mid 20s are still used to being referred as the optimal of youth. It's strange seeing celebrities that are actually younger than me becoming popular. I still haven't adjusted to the fact that my age group is no longer the focus point of youth, but are slowly merging to become the new adult focus point.

                        –- Update From New Post Merge ---

                        In One Piece's inception (1997), I was 7 years old. I hadn't even watched Toonami yet. All I knew of action cartoons was Popeye the Sailor man and Space Ghost. The year One Piece does end, I will make history as this decades (the 2010s) greatest entrepreneur. It is my dream after all.

                          Although I'm getting off topic, I must say it's even stranger to realize I have no idea about these so called younger celebrities lol.

                          At any rate, I like to hope that I'll be showing OP to my future child. Bonding over it should be hilarious.

                            I am here only to say that the grammatical error in the thread title is frighteningly irritating.

                                Then I'll make you feel even older XD. I was 4 when it started, and didn't get into it until I was 11, and that was just the dubs, it wasn't until 5 years later that I actually ventured into the land known as subs, and managed to get caught up with the anime, not the manga. When it's over.. well I still have no idea what I want to do with my life by then.. get married I hope :p.

                                    I was three years old when One Piece began. At that time we were just moving into a new house in a new city.

                                    When it ends, I'll hopefully still be alive to read it.

                                      I was two, in nursery school, and living in the same home that I do now.

                                      Naturally I'll be sad when it ends, but how long will it continue? 10-15 years? Maybe more, maybe less? Either way, if I have kids by that point, I'll want them to read it.

                                      also cyclone you're older than i thought

                                          I was born almost a year after OP started. All you older people are making me feel young…. whether that's a good or bad thing.
                                          When OP ends, I'll hopefully be in space meeting martians and sharing my (over 120 volume long) bible with them. Other life forms need One piece too.

                                          It's a pillow! It's a pet! It's a pillow pet MOOSE ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!

                                                The same thing everybody around here was doing in 97: watching DragonBall on tv.

                                                  I was two, in nursery school, and living in the same home that I do now.

                                                  Naturally I'll be sad when it ends, but how long will it continue? 10-15 years? Maybe more, maybe less? Either way, if I have kids by that point, I'll want them to read it.

                                                  also cyclone you're older than i thought

                                                        I was six years old when One Piece started, so I was most likely outside with my friends or in my basement playing Sonic the Hedgehog games on my Genesis.

                                                        I only hope I'll be alive when it ends.

                                                            Well, I was about 10 at the time. Considering that, I would say I was probably derping around fourth grade with my tomagotchi while trying to outdo the asshole kid in my class.

                                                            As for when it ends? I hope I will still be a fan and reading that final chapter 🙂

                                                              I was 2, I do remember what I did the day I discovered One Piece. I watched it like I had never watched something before, 6 Hours a day of pure One Piece for a week/weeks in my holiday. Reality ceased to exist for me, only One Piece mattered. It was great.

                                                                    I was 12 at that time and … well i don't really want to remember that time. I was such a dork.

                                                                    When i discovered OP i was 16 i think. And it hit me hard. I was recording the episodes on VHS back then.

                                                                    When OP ends i will probably be like ... 38? Weird to think about that.

(well half a year i couldnt get my hands on a new volumne [after i read vol.9…imagine!!!] until i decided to directly order it from the publishing company here in Germany, because i couldn`t find a store who sold it anymore ..ohh those sweet times without regular i-net at home)
                                                                        I know i was finished with reading DB and i was searching for new stuff (even considered "3x3 eyes",lol), thank god i remembered that pirate manga that was announced to be published in Germany soon.

                                                                        The time were you always had to wait a month for a new volumne (later 3 months!) to get new OP material…hehe, i remember i always checked out the stores for a new volumne and how happy i was when finally a brand new volumne stood right in front of me.

                                                                        Later i found that chapters are available on the i-net and so i started reading weekly new chapters ca when Skypia came to an end, beginning of DBF (i had no i-net back then so i had to get it from our school pc or from a friend on my usb-stick 🙂

                                                                        Iam pretty sure i will stick to it till it ends, because so far i have already 13 yrs behind me and i still love it (even when iam not as much behind getting the new volumnes as i was used to be...now i get one whenever i feel like it)
                                                                        But checking out the new chapters is a routine that belongs to me and won`t stop until the story comes to an end .

                                                                              hmm, considering it was summer when it started I was most likely either a) playing outside with other kids (crazy bike races and spending half of my time upside down included), b) developing secret hideout on attic of my parent's summerhouse and paying with my cousins there, c) spending vacation on the sea cost d) visiting relatives who lived in other part of the country and sightseeing nearby castles.
                                                                              there is also likelihood of spending time with my cousins at our grandparents place or playing pirates in our friends home (they have bunk bed).
                                                                              If I were watching tv it (not a significant part of my time during holiday) was most likely Animal Planet or maybe some old anime - we have channel that have been brodcasting shows like "General Daimos", "Captain Tsubasa", "Kaiketsu Zorro", "Tiger Mask" (mum didn't approve of that one - too violent), "Jungle Book", "Snow White", "Sally the witch", "Yattaman" (mum didn't approve of that either - naked chick in every episode), "Yattodettaman" and than some, Sailor Moon just appeared (on different channel) so I may have been watching it, but I'm not sure if they wre running during holiday. I'm not sure if I ever heard of "Dragon Ball' back then.
                                                                              We might have been watching "Copa América" with my bro, we were into soccer due to being exposed to "Tsubasa" - but I'm not sure when it was taking place.
                                                                              And we've been listening about the big flood.
                                                                              Since I still have some trouble with reading (due to my dyslexia it recurred too much effort to do it for fun back when I was 9) my parents read to me and my brother every evening to encourage me.
                                                                              It was wonderful time in my life.

                                                                              I have no idea what I'll be doing when One Piece will end. But it's going to be bittersweet. Bitter because no new chapters will come out,, sweet, because, hay I'll know the ending and the story will be complete.

                                                                              "I'm a bad guy! I don't save the day, I don't fly off to the sunset and I don't get the girl! I'm going home." - MegaMind

If I'm doing dates correctly, so I was 9 or 10 when the anime came out, now i'm 24. When One Piece end's I'll probably have kids by then and I will definitely show them One Piece. Hopefully I will be creating or have already created my own anime series / manga as well, One Piece will always be my inspiration without a doubt.

That's roughly a halfyear to a year after i started getting into anime. When it ends well i just hope to be alive raising an army to take back the world from giant intelligent land-dolphins

When it ends, I will channel all of my energy to force the earth to move back in time, just enough to reach the point before the ending.

                                                                                                and when it ended, I think its gonna be the next today's dragonball topic. :3

We watched Fullmetal Alchemist together. I think it was 2004. When I came home, I was bored so I tried to find some Dragonball or Sailor Moon to download. (They were the only anime's I'd ever watched.) I actually ended up finding this little anime called Naruto first. But I didn't really like it, so I didn't get into anime until much later. One day, my sister was watching One Piece on tv while channel surfing, and for some reason I loved it. (Weird, since it was actually the 4kids dub.) But it was one of the Arlong Park episodes, which is still my favorite Arc to this day.

The internet was not yet very popular but was picking up steam. I found a website that I can't remember the name of right now and went on it at college … (Better than my 24kbps connectino at home) to read what I now realise were the most terrible of scans.

                                                                                                      Saw the 4Kids dub on whatever channel it was (English so not cartoon network at the time) and thought "This can't be right" - this is when I found out about Bad Dubbs. never watched one since.

                                                                                                      What will I be doing in 15 years ?? If I'm alive I'll definatly be reading, cant dedicate this long to a story without knowing what happens in the end.

                                                                                                        Anyway, I was in primary school at the time and blissfully unaware that anime even existed until the Pokemon hype hit the year after that because my parents basically had banned me and my sister from watching anything Dragonball and Sailor Moon because of the violence. With no local OP dub it took ages for me to actually get into it though, not until fairly late in my teens at the earliest.
                                                                                                        As for when it ends, I hope I'll have built up a nice and cosy adult life by then and be happy, when it finally will be happening.
