Jump Festa 2014
Oda often cries while he is drawing ONE PIECE. He said that the most heartbreaking scene for him is this one. [hide][/hide]Oda drew this scene again and again until he found it heartbreaking enough.[hide][/hide]Oda had no intention that Straw Hats would say goodbye to Going Merry, but he decided it since enemys' ships were getting stronger.
Oda came up with this scene near the deadline of the chapter.[hide][/hide]Oda: "The big shot I mentioned last year in Jump Festa has not appeared yet in manga. I guess he/she will start to move next year."
"Boobs will be bigger."
"I will not appear in Jump Festa super stage any more." (source: Weekly Shone Jump issue 8 2014)

Jump Festa 2015
A video about Oda's workplace was shown.
Oda: "Refreshing is the excuse for laziness." (source: a paper on the wall in Oda's workplace)
There are at least 15 notebooks that include Oda's ideas about Dressrosa arc.
Oda made a surprise appearance for a short while.
Jump Festa 2016 Mayumi Tanaka read Oda's letter aloud:
"My audience frequently ask me "When will Sanji appear?" these days. Hirata-san (Sanji's voice actor) also asks me "When the heck will I appear?"
Don't worry guys! 2016 will be Sanji's year!
Finally it's time to reveal Sanji's birth! The member of Straw Hats who didn't made much appearances in Dressrosa arc will have many highlights next year."
-The name of Master Necomamushi officially turned out to be based on the song "Let's go to see Master Necomamushi" made by Brook's voice actor 4 years ago.
From Hirata's official blog
