Q&A
Chapter 1145, Page 24
Q (Reader): It’s hot! In times like these, you have to turn on a fan! “S-B-S- Begins-” Oda, you must have done that before too! P.N. Kei
A (Oda): That brings back memories. Facing into an electric fan… “S-B-S- Wait, it’s already started!!
Q (Reader): Does Zunesha poop? P.N. Aho Aho Beam (“Aho” means “Idiot”)
A (Oda): Gross!! The first question is gross!! Of course, sometimes adventurers will make landfall on it, thinking “this whole island is like a swamp…” Eventually, the island sinks and becomes nutrients for the sea. As if! But of course it poops.
Q (Reader): For the people wondering, it’s about time we put an end to the question of who the person on the cover of chapter 631 is! Is it the “Golden Lion” Shiki? Or the “Left Hand of the Pirate King” Scopper Gaban? P.N. Ebi
A (Oda): You’ve got a good memory! That was Gaban. He wandered around quite a bit. He never gave up being a sailor; he is a navigator, after all.
Q (Reader): Why does Bonney look like she’s in her 20s, when she’s really 12? Will she stay 12 from now on? P.N. Nama Tamago
A (Oda): When she was out at sea, nobody would take a child captain seriously, and looking older was convenient for her journey to find her father. But on the Sunny and Elbaph, it looks like she feels safe enough to remain a child. Please keep an eye on her future developments.
Chapter 1146 Page 49
Q (Reader): Could the Sea Beast Weapons be modeled after the ** mecha, like Yatterman-1 and Yatter-King? So nostalgic!! P.N. Gomu Gomu no Gear
A (Oda): You know it!? Lol, that’s right!! A long time ago there was this mecha series that I loved, **. I’ve long been fascinated by the skills visible in the designs and colors by the people who laid the foundations of Japanese mecha anime, like Nakamura Mitsuki-san and Okanawa Kunio-san (who went on to work on **). There was also the plastic model line **. My goal with the robots I draw is always Time Bokan and Robodacchi. Though now I’ve said some things you probably don’t all understand lol. I wonder if you can find them online. They’re really designs full of excitement.
Q (Reader): The DOM shoes that appeared in chapter 1064 of volume 105 are probably an homage to the legs of the Dom from Gundam, right? P.N. Clara Stood Up
A (Oda): Oh, that’s right! In my mind, having thick legs is like the “Dom”, lol. That’s all!
Q (Reader): Hello, Oda-san!! The One Piece world has both the Age of the Sea Circle and Age of Heaven calendars. How many years ago do they refer to? What year is it now? P.N. Negizairu
A (Oda): Casual readers probably forgot all about this lol. I’m surprised. You might assume they’re both ancient calendars. But to answer, the world is currently in the year 4131 in the Age of Heaven and 1541 in the Age of the Sea Circle. Both are in active use. Incidentally, while we were on the Sky Islands, everything said “about 400 years ago”, but really this was rounded to make it easier to understand. You can forget about it.
Chapter 1147, Page 60
Q (Reader): Dada-n!! Oda-san, Thai kick P.N. Yutan
A (Oda): It hurts already
Q (Reader): What are you afraid of? P.N. Polaris
A (Oda): Thai Kick and the PTA Q (Reader): Hello Odacchi! I was reading and thinking about the Celestial Dragons. If York wants to become a Celestial Dragon, does that mean that before he split off the satellites, Vegapunk also had some desire to become one? P.N. Kibi Dango
A (Oda): I see. Are you surprised? This is difficult to talk about, but in my opinion, everyone has “greed” for everything, and only when they have the “reason” to restrain themselves do they become “human”. If Shaka is considered the “reason”, then before being split, if you feel hatred for the Celestial Dragons or have the common sense that we shouldn’t kill humans, then there may be some Celestial Dragon within you, being held back. That may be an extreme view, though. Please take it with a grain of salt haha. The simple answer is “maybe humans just feel the desire to become Celestial Dragons”.
Q (Reader): Luffy has small pupils. What would happen if he wore contact lenses? P.N. Machi
A (Oda): Here:
Chapter 1149, Page 96
Q (Reader): I want to see what Vivi looks like at 40 and 60!!! Also, here’s some Sanadacchi protection spray, so you can feel safe this summer. P.N. Ramen-maru
A (Oda): Yay! Sanada won’t appear anymore! I’ll draw Vivi as a thank you!
;Top row: *Age 40: Let’s go, Karoo! Towards East Blue! *Age 60: My, you’re quite good, fufufu! ;Bottom row (a future if something happened/went wrong): *Age 40: I’ll make ya dizzy, ya bastard!!! *Age 60: Luffy? Oh yeah… There used to be a guy like that…
Q (Reader): I got so excited when Luffy’s new Gear 5 techniques Gomu Gomu no Dawn Rocket and Dawn Whip were named! But when I see the word “white”, I naturally think “panties” - that would be even more exciting! Why is it read “dawn” instead? P.N. Ijikko (“Dawn” here is written with the kanji for “white”, but the pronunciation “dawn”.)
A (Oda): Wait! Ramen-maru!? Your spray scared away Sanada, but did you just summon another weirdo!? What do you mean “when you see ‘white’, you think ‘panties’”!? PTA members, it’s not what it sounds like! It isn’t that kind of manga!!
Q (Reader): Odacchi, heso! Are Franky and Queen parent and child? P.N.
'''O: Eh-!! (Damn… in the Vivre Card One Piece Visual Dictionary, the year that Queen’s child was born matches the year Franky was born! And what’s more, the year that Queen abandoned his child and the year that Franky was picked up by Tom all match!? It’s weird for the readers to know something that the characters involved don’t, so let’s try to cover it up nicely…!!) N-no… they’re n-not!
Chapter 1150, Page 112
Q (Reader): Odacchi!! In chapter 1127, “Adventure in the Land of Mystery”, Maki Whip Strike is drawn from the same angle as Maki Muchi Shoot in chapter 162, “Adventure in the Kingdom of Sand”! I went to check and it’s been 24 years since it was last used. I’ve grown up since then (10 years old ⮕ 34 years old). P.N. ARIMO
A (Oda): A scene that made your heart flutter as a boy. Thank you for noticing! I played a secret emotional game with this, lol.
Q (Reader): The Nine Red Scabbards have become the daimyo of each region, but I’d like to know how they were selected! Was it Kin’emon who made the decisions!? P.N. ARIMO
A (Oda): Sure. With the hated Kaidou and Orochi gone, and Oden gone, Momonosuke has declared himself the ruler of Wano Country! Of course, the Nine Red Scabbards are supporting Momonosuke, who is only 8 years old, despite having the appearance of a man! Here’s Wano now:
The poor towns outside cities, the Prisoner Mine, the factories, and Onigashima are all gone. As can be seen in the cover story, after much discussion, the Scabbards scattered across the regions. In the Flower Capital, Nekomamushi is the leader of the yakuza, and Kin’emon is the , the leader behind the scenes. Yamato is still learning about the world around him.

Chapter 1151, Page 128
Q (Reader): Recently, e-books have become commonplace, and the number of web comics has increased, but I feel like One Piece has a lot of panels that span across large pages, in addition to large double-page spreads. Are you thinking of this as a paper book? P.N. Hamachi
A (Oda): Recently, they’ve started digital versions of Jump. Everyone is free to read it however they want, but I’m thinking, in the case of the Jump magazine and comics, they’re meant to be horizontally on devices like a PC or iPad. I guess that’s what I mean. For example, when I want to draw an amazing spread, I might intentionally make the the left corner of the previous page smaller, aiming for a visual effect that makes the large panel appear even larger when the page is turned. The size of panels is also a part of artistic expression. So, I can only say sorry to those who read it on a smartphone’s vertical screen, lol.
Q (Reader): What family are the Celestial Dragons Saint Rosward, Saint Charlos, and Saint Shalria from? P.N. Polaris
A (Oda): The Rosward Family. Rosward’s parents must’ve been idiots. His name is “Rosward Rosward”.
Q (Reader): I think you’ve probably received a lot of these, but I’d like a version of the Q&A corner with ! P.N. Omote Nekoko
A (Oda): Oh, that’s right! The longtime voice actor for Franky, the talented , has now retired, so we’d like to thank the powerful Subaru Kimura for his role up until now! Subaru Kimura is voicing Franky, so let’s have a “Subaru Kimura SBS”! Send in your questions!
Chapter 1152, Page 146
Q (Reader): Don’t stay at the SBS too long. P.N. PTA President Louis Arnote
A (Oda): What!? He was the PTA president!? I… I’m aiming to create a place where children can feel safe and comfortable and spend a long time at!
(The following two questions are written in a child’s handwriting)
Q (Reader): Hello Oda-sensei! I’m Masahito and I’m 6 years old. I’ve been thinking about a new Devil Fruit. The Shaki Shaki no Mi. It can make the user’s attacks sharper. P.N. K. Masahito
A (Oda): Wow, 6-year-old Masahito-kun ♡ Cool, the Shaki Shaki no Mi, I wonder if I should use it, it’s so cute ♡ Have you seen this, PTA ♡ Oh! Another cute postcard!
Q (Reader): Is Jinbe’s penis blue? P.N. Amimi
A (Oda): Okay, 5-year-old Amimi-chan… wha… what are you asking!? (it’s blue)
Q (Reader): It’s true that magic mirrors exist in the world of One Piece! Did you know that there are magic mirror cars in this world? I have no ulterior motives, but a magic mirror sounds like a dream! Dufufu P.N. Sanadacchi
A (Oda): It’s only a dream… ♡ I think the other side is just a mirror… Sanada!! Why are you here!!!
Chapter 1153, Page 164
A (Oda): ⬆ Look! I just used it! Because we’re about to start SBS!!
Q (Reader): Odacchi! Are you really level 50? In the SBS, you said you were level 8, didn’t you?
A (Oda): Shut up!! My daughter said the same thing!
Q (Reader): This is my first time sending in!! I heard you’re working on a cover series, right? My dad said that the characters that appear in them might not show up anymore, so what’s the story behind that? P.N. Mi Sakura
A (Oda): Eh? That’s not true. The cover series I’ve done so far have been: {| style=“text-align: center; margin: auto;” |70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px |- |Buggy||Koby||Jango||Hatchan||Wapol||Ace||Gedatsu||Meet Baroque||Enel |- |70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px||70px |- |CP9||Caribou||Jinbe||colspan=“2”|Straw Hat Grand Fleet||Bege||Germa||Yamato |} There’s a lot going on in the main story. Most of the characters are returning. But what are they doing before they reappear? I want the reader to know what they’re doing while they’re gone. That’s the point of the cover story. There’s also a book called Doors! which makes it easy to read them. Mi Sakura-chan, are you wondering if Yamato will appear again? Look forward to the possibility! lol
Q (Reader): Kuma’s ship’s sail uses a picture drawn by Bonney, and the ship is cute. If it has a name, please tell me! P.N. Polaris
A (Oda): The Leap Out Jewelry. Well, that’s all for the SBS!! We’re waiting for your questions for Subaru Kimura! See you in the next volume!!
