Thanks Sandman! I've seen time and time again how the goofiest most off putting characters become extremely endearing and cool over time. I trust Weevil will be seen as cool in the eyes of the reader.
If he battles for a bit I hope Luffy is still needs to recover and the other Straw Hats put him down. Preferably another Sanji/Zoro team up.
Personally, I'd like for Zoro to take out Weevil in a 1-on-1.
I think Luffy should graduate from Warlords. Let the rest of his crew get some credibility.
For sure weevil is for luffy, since he was compared to yonkou whitebeard in strength(and luffy is yonkou now). Same way beating chinjao was to show that luffy matched garp, I think this is to show that luffy will surpass Whitebeard too.
And he is silly strong but dumb just like luffy, so it fits.

Naito also said that Oda will not spend dozens of chapters on Reverie since Straw Hats need to enter Wano soon.
Naito said that so many important information is crammed into Reverie that audience may feel like re-reading those chapters.
"ONE PIECE Doors!" volume 1 will be on sale on June 4th. It will handle cover story drawings and such from chapter 2 to 305. Judging from the live streaming above, it seems Sheusha decided to publish this book since it will remind audience of some characters who appear in Reverie.
Novel Ace volume 2 will handle his story until he joined Whitebeard Pirates. Shueisha wanted to include further story such as Marineford summit war, but they gave up since the book will be as thick as an encyclopedia. lol

Man this editor really likes to chat…also I dont like "yea dont worry the reverie will be over and then we get into wano soon" attitude there's gonna be a hype crash if they dont bac this up as a top 5 arc
Just as I predicted, a one volume story.
Dude, they're hyping Wano so much the only way for the arc to not be disappointing is for it to end up being the best arc ever. Just it being good won't satisfy me.
- ONE PIECE editor Naito said on Twitter live streaming 3 hours ago that Reverie will finish within the next 10 chapters (数週;2-9 weeks). He also said that he doesn't call it Reverie "arc" since it will not last long.

Would this mean we get another Ace volumen, Novel 3??

Cool so we are faster in Wano than expected… Or at least I hope so.
Maybe even closer to raid suit Sanji
BTW I read that Stephen knows about Green Bull... So will he appear FULLY soon?
These reverie chapters had better be PACKED considering it hasn't even started yet or I'm gonna be pretty disappointed

Yea this arc isn't ending in 10 chapters lol, the editors always give us shorter estimates for arc lengths every single time lmao. Excited for all the huge info though and exposition. I expect it to be 15+ at this point lol.
Thanks for the info!

Well of its any comfort, Oda is a master at making his plot heavy chapters mean a lot. We got a ridiculous amount of plot exposition in just 5 or so chapters post enies lobby and marinford. If this is supposed to be roughly 10, there will be a lot. I also expect it to be longer than 10, since Oda is notorious for extending an arc further than what he claims or just the comments on the story overall..
I'm honestly thinking 12-15 extremely plot heavy chapters unless he has the pacing all planned out from the get go.
He still needs to do:
Plus a slew of other shit that needs to be addressed
Was it ever stated that the Reverie lasted for one day and one meeting? I've always hoped that we'd just see the beginning of it now, cut to Wano, and then see the end of it once Wano concludes. That way they could react to the downfall of Kaidou.
I doubt that we'll see any decision or meeting in this streetch of history, we'll see most of what It will do will be revealed in the interarc after wano.
The goverment has felt like an aftertought since we entered the new world, I guess this is going to change that.
Cool so we are faster in Wano than expected… Or at least I hope so.
Oda readdressed the Jump Festa comments from the year before and promised that Wano would happen in 2018.
OP averages about 39 chapters per year in recent years and we're already almost halfway through 2018.
It also seems like he wants to spend a little bit of time on Weevil before Wano which will probably take up Fall 2018 with Wano arc probably starting near the very end of the year.
The point is, Reverie was never going to be a 20+ chapter long arc. I don't know why anyone thought that when every indication by Oda made it seem otherwise.
The point is, Wano was never going to be a 20+ chapter long arc.
I know you meant Reverie, but can you imagine how packed a <20 chapter Wano arc would have to be. Sad flashback every other page, not a single page without a supernova, he'd prolly give up and narrate over the unfinished panels Marville style.
While i don´t like hearing Reverie getting a bit rushed, i still think it´s gonna be great.
Oda gives us at least a volume of exposition packed chapters, where we get more to know about Green Bull, the treasure of Maryjoa and what Vegapunk invented.
Just confirms to me, that we will cut away from it once the Revo army drops the bomb they planned.

DFWind/Metal/Acid/Liquid/Time-Stop
We might get the full reveal of Green Bull, we won't get anything else from Vegapunk unless the man is in the council, and that goddam treasure, at the very least a hint is going to be made.
(My bet again is that is not the ancient weapons, nor the captured goverment phoneglyphs, but the thing that was used to beat the ancient weapons)

I dont think the news confirm it was rushed because when oda announced we were going to reverie and wano in 2017 chapter 849 had just come out. Assuming he was planning on aving everyone split for real after the wedding arc we'd probably be leaving WCI around chapter 873, give or take a few chapters, whoch debuted on july 24th. The last chapter of 2018 was 889, so if oda had kept his promise even if he entered wano on the very last day we would have gotten a reverie pretty similar in length to what were getting now.
Just because the editor mentions chapters crammed with Info amd hypes up wano I dont think the reverie is necessarily being cut down from 2-2.5 volumes to 1-1.5. I think oda always had this in mind, judging from what we got earlier

"My Hero Academia Volume Origin" will be released as a tie in to the movie. It contains a special interview between Kohei Horikoshi and Eiichiro Oda as well as character profiles and art by Horikoshi.
Thank you for the info!
Today Governor of Kumamoto Prefecture revealed that Oda had donated about 7.2 million dollars for their reconstruction project from a large earthquake.
Kumamoto is Oda's hometown.
Oda used Luffy's name for the donation; 500 million yen in 2016, same as Luffy's bounty in 2016 and 300 million yen in 2017.
Kumamoto Prefecture is planning to make statues of Straw Hats as well as Luffy.
Until this news came out today, some people were against the idea of Kumamoto spending 12 million dollars for Luffy's statue.
For reference, editor estimated in 2011 that Oda earned about 28 million dollars per year.

Wait 12 million dollars for a statue? Did you mean yen?
Cause 12 million dollars seems a bit excessive.
Other than that, cool news.
Yeah, it´s 13 million yen which is still a lot since apparently they have problems over there.
snip
it wont let me delete this post.
This kind of pop culture-related attraction has a potential to draw a lot of tourists to the prefecture in the long run. So a Luffy statue sounds like a good investment to me.

Isn't it 12 million yen for Luffy's statue, sandman?
12 million dollars are a little too much.
Also the bounty for luffy also seems to be mixed up
Did not make sense the value decrease over one year
I check the site and this say 13 milion yen not 12 milion dollars…
Nobody here is mentioning Oda is earning 28 million dollars a year? I am really really surprised it's so litte, when you think he is the mastermind of the worldwide known franchise of One Piece…

He could easily earn way more if he wanted to. And the Japanese don't worship money unlike certain nations in the world.
Anyway, 28million dollars is more than he could waste in his entire life

That's easily on par with what most elite professional sports players make a year in the US, so I'd say it's a lot.
Yep, Lebron just barely surpasses that number with his basketball salary alone, and he is teh best player in the NBA.
Of course with endorsements, their actual earnings are much higher
Oda's income is just based on speculation from a Japanese television show from a few years ago.
It could be higher, it could be lower.
I think Oda would be happier if Kumamoto put those 12 million yen to reparation and renovation works. Feels like the kinda person he'd be.

FC(Switch) - SW-3434-4042-7728 (Jin)

It still are educated guesses from people within the industry though, no?
Iirc even Oda´s former editor was involved in that show, and someone like him should probably know what he is talking about.

3 manga editors were involved in that TV show titled "Bakana Furishite Kiitemita" on May 3rd, 2011;
Nobuhiko Horie (Shonen Jump former Chief editor. He was not Oda's editor.)
Paku Chonhyon (Shonen Magazine Vice editor-in-chief)
Ryusuke Ito (Young Magazine Vice editor-in-chief)

Ah yeah, thx for the info, but makes it even more valid, someone like a chief editor should know the typical amount for royalties percentage-wise and the amount per page and so on.
Of course Oda might have a better deal than most if not all, but the approximate level should be correct.
Sorry mate, not only is it from 2015, but even the program had to explicitly state that it could be much higher. It's only considering the production and foreign rights.
Not to mention I'd bet anything they low-balled to make sure it didn't sound too intimidating.
My point is, it's not accurate to say that is his income as fact. It is/was an estimate.
Hmm, 2015… Maybe the TV show Greg is talking about is not the same as what I mentioned above. If that is thes case, I need to check it in the future. At least I can confirm that the TV show where those 3 manga editors speculated about Oda's income was aired in 2011.
By the way, new Oda's interview with Kohei Horikoshi will be released in an extra volume called "My Hero Academia Volume Origin". It will be distributed in theaters on August 3rd. :wub:
And sorry for the summary of Novel Ace being delayed. It's mainly because I'm a bit busy preparing for moving my house..

For clarification sandman, I did a Google search on the elements of the story and found references to it in 2015. TBH I thought it was even maybe as far back as 2014 but I don't trust my own memory. I swear Sabaody-san did an article on it. For some reason I also believe owarai tarento were involved in the panel. Specifically the guy who looks like ラーメンズ with glasses whose name I can never remember ^0^
I apologize if my memory serves me incorrectly but I remember it being quite some time ago.
I've read Greg's Twitter time line and he kindly posted a pretty interesting summary of Franky VA Kazuki Yao's interview.
He made a funny talk about Oda, Franky and such.

Have you been been following the Oda commentary on the JP version of The Bachelor Season 2? The bachelor himself visited the editorial office the other day and had an actual rose delivered to Oda. Oda replied with thumbs up ^O^
Here is my summary of Japanese TV show yesterday which looked back on the 50-year-history of Shonen Jump. The length of the show was 100 minutes. :wub:
In June, editor Naito kept making phone calls many times to Oda to let him know that the deadline for submitting chapter is approaching,
but Oda ignored them all day long probably because he was too busy. Both Oda and editor had agreed those frequent phone calls.
Oda sent a rough draft to Shueisha the next day. 2 hours after Oda and Naito talked about Reverie via phone,
Oda submitted a new better rough draft via FAX that went far beyond Naito's imagination. (We are not sure about the detail of the talk since only the beginning of the talk was aired in the TV show.)
Naito said Oda considers the last page/panel in each chapter is the most important to let audience get hooked.
Editor Naito visited a printing company by himself with a bag which contains a chapter Oda has just finished drawing.
BTW, editor Asada revealed in Grand Talk Show last summer that he accidentally left Oda's manuscript in a convenience store in Hibarigaoka (Tokyo) around 20 years ago. Editor Sugita was surprised to hear that since it was the last thing editors should do. After the shop staff kindly made a phone call to Shueisha, Asada visited there right away.
Before ONE PIECE started, some editors were against the idea of its serialization. A legendary Dragon Ball editor Torishima was against OP as well.
He thought, "Luffy's ability is just stretching his arms/body. Such a character doesn't deserve a protagonist."
One day, after 2-hour-discussion about whether they should start ONE PIECE or not, all editors were exhausted.
Chief editor Torishima finally decided OP serialization since he thought a manga that some editors complain about might become more popular than a manga that all editors agree to serialization.
(When the serialization was decided, Oda told Torishima, "If ONE PIECE becomes popular, be sure to admit defeat."
Soon after that, ONE PIECE made a huge success. Oda talked to Torishima again in new year's party and reminded him of the promise.
Torishima said, "OK. You won, Oda! Are you satisfied?" source: TBS Internet Radio March 25th, 2018)
