After 25 years of publication, it seems that the outcome of ‘One Piece’ is getting closer and the very Eiichiro Oda has confirmed that the manga is already entering the final stretch of history.
Eye, that in a manga as long as ‘One Piece’, this does not mean that the end will be published right away and we can still have quite a few years of series ahead. But without getting too wet about dates, what its creator has confirmed is that we are going to be able to see how many of the great mysteries that it has been raising for us during all these years are resolved.
Returning with strength from the hiatus
Last month, Oda confirmed that he was taking a month hiatus and that he would be pausing publication of the manga in order to focus on various events related to ‘OnePiece’including a visit to the filming of the series in real action on Netflix.
As of July 25, the publication will be resumed in the Weekly Shōnen Jumpand Oda wanted to share a message with his fans about the end of the manga, where he assures that all the great secrets that we still have left on the list will be revealed.
“When I was little I thought… ‘I wish I could draw a manga series where the ending is the most exciting! I wonder if I can do it!’ Now we are almost done with the Wano Country Arc, and all the preparation work is done,” said the mangaka. “It’s taken me 25 years, but it’s fine if you start reading from here… From now on, this will be ‘One Piece’!”
“I will draw all the mysteries that remain in this world and that I have been hiding until now,” says Oda. “It’s going to be very interesting. Please fasten your seat belts. Thank you very much, I hope you’ll stay with me a little while longer!”
