is a Japanese anime series based on the manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. One Piece follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy, a young man whose body gains the properties of rubber after unintentionally eating a Devil's Fruit, and his diverse crew of pirates, named the Straw Hat Pirates. Luffy explores the ocean in search of the world's ultimate treasure known as One Piece in order to become the next Pirate King.
Toei Animation produced the series and it premiered in Japan on Fuji Television on October 20, 1999. Since then, the still ongoing series has aired more than 700 episodes and has been exported to various countries around the world. In 2004, 4Kids Entertainment acquired the license for distribution of One Piece in North America. 4Kids collaborated with Viz Media to distribute the series for home video release. This dub was heavily edited for content, as well as length; reducing the first 143 episodes into 104. Sanji's cigarettes, for example, were turned into lollipops, and the skin of a black pirate was changed to a tan mulatto/white color.

The series premiered in the United States on September 18, 2004 on the Fox network as part of the Fox Box block. 4Kids released a statement in December 2006 confirming that it cancelled the project. Following the 4Kids dub in 2007, Funimation Entertainment began production on an English-language release of One Piece.

The 4Kids dubbed episodes premiered on Cartoon Network's Toonami block on April 23, 2005 and aired through September 22, 2007, with 104 episodes aired. After the conclusion of the 4Kids episodes, the Funimation dubbed episodes began airing on Toonami on September 29, 2007, picking up where the 4Kids dub left off with episode 144 "Caught Log! The King of Salvagers, Masira!". The Funimation dubbed episodes aired until the series was removed from the block on March 22, 2008.

During Momocon 2013, the Toonami staff announced that they had re-acquired the rights to the series and that One Piece would return to the Toonami lineup in April 2013. The series returned to Toonami on May 18, 2013 with episode 207 of the "Long Ring Long Land" arc (or "Davy Back Fight" arc as it's also known), due to the fact that a lot of the episodes preceding 207 were already shown on Toonami, and because every episode after 207 is in HD. The series was rated TV-PG-DLSV and TV-14-DLV on Adult Swim.

During a Toonami: Pre-Flight episode, it was announced that One Piece would be ending its run on Adult Swim's Toonami on March 18, 2017.

The series begins with the execution of Gold D. Roger, a man known as the King of the Pirates. Just before his death, Roger announces that his treasure, the One Piece, will be up for the taking, causing the Great Pirate Era to begin. As a result, countless pirates set out to the Grand Line to look for the treasure.

Twenty-two years have passed since Roger's execution, and Monkey D. Luffy, a young pirate inspired by his childhood idol and powerful pirate Red Haired Shanks, has since set off on a journey from the East Blue Ocean to succeed Roger and find the legendary treasure. In an attempt to organize his own crew, the Straw Hat Pirates, he befriends many different crew members, each with unique skills and abilities, that he meets on his journey to find The legendary treasure One Piece.

The Straw Hat Pirate Crew consists of: Monkey D. Luffy, a rubber-man and captain of the Straw Hat Pirates; Roronoa Zoro a swordsman and former bounty hunter; Nami, a navigator and a thief; Usopp, a sniper and a liar; Sanji, a womanizing chef; Tony Tony Chopper, an anthropomorphized reindeer and doctor; Nico Robin, an archaeologist and former member of the Baroque Works; Franky, a shipwright and self-made cyborg; and Brook, a living skeleton and musician.

Throughout the series The Straw Hat Pirates face off with many enemies including the Marines, bounty hunters, and many different pirate crews, including; Buggy The Clown and The Buggy Pirates, Arlong and The Arlong Pirates, Shichibukai Sir Crocodile and Baroque Works, and many more.

Characters

Monkey D. Luffy - The captain of the Straw Hat Pirates and the primary protagonist of the One Piece series. In the beginning of the series, he accidentally eats the Paramecia-type Gum-Gum Fruit, causing his body to gain the properties of highly stretchable rubber. In addition to his Devil Fruit ability, Luffy eventually learns to use Haki. After his life is saved by Shanks when he is seven years old, Luffy decides to achieve the tantamount goals of finding the series' titular treasure and succeed Gold Roger as King of the Pirates. Ten years later, wearing Shanks' straw hat, he sets out to sea to gather a crew and sail the Grand Line, where the One Piece is supposedly hidden.

Roronoa Zoro - A swordsman who uses up to three swords, holding the third in his mouth. To fulfill a promise to his childhood friend and rival, "Kuina", he decides to become the world's greatest swordsman by defeating Dracule Mihawk. Before meeting Luffy, Zoro has become a bounty hunter. Zoro is saved from his executioners by Luffy, who decides to follow his dream. He makes it clear that he would turn on his captain if he ever stepped between him and his dream, although he later says that he can not fulfill his dream if he does not help his captain fulfill his.

Nami - A navigator and thief who recognizes and analyzes even the slightest changes in the weather. She is also an excellent pickpocket. Her dream is to draw a complete map of the world. She briefly betrayed the crew during the Baratie Arc, but rejoined at the end of the Arlong Park Arc after her past and true intentions were revealed. Throughout the series, Nami fights using a three-sectioned bo staff. Usopp later provides her with a version of this weapon capable of controlling weather, called the Climate Baton.

Usopp - A liar, talented inventor, skilled painter, and sculptor. Usopp fills the role of the Straw Hat's Sniper. In combat, Usopp primarily uses slingshots to fire various kinds of ammunition. During Usopp's early childhood, his father, Yasopp, leaves him and his mother to join the Red-Haired Pirates. Some time after this, Usopp's mother, Banchina, falls ill. Usopp starts telling his mother and other villagers lies, stating that his father has returned and will be taking them with him. His mother eventually dies, but Usopp, in his sadness, continues to tell lies. Despite all this, he does not blame his father for leaving him, but takes pride in his heritage. Usopp has an alter-ego named "Sogeking", a hero sniper, wearing a golden mask and cape.

"Black Leg" Sanji - The Straw Hat Pirates' cook. He knows how it feels to starve from first hand experience, so he will never refuse someone a meal. He has a strong sense of chivalry, because of which, he will never harm a woman, even if he dies. Sanji also seems to keep this code regardless of a woman's appearance. His dream is to find the "All Blue", a legendary sea, containing every kind of fish in the world. Sanji only uses kicks while fighting. He said that this is because a chef's hands are his most prized possessions and should not be risked in battle. Sanji begins using a fire-based kick technique known as Diable Jambe, in which he heats his leg by spinning around rapidly to increase his attack power. Eventually, he can fly using CP9's Skywalk technique and can use Diable Jambe without spinning around.

Tony Tony Chopper - A doctor and a blue-nosed reindeer who gained human properties by eating the Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit. He comes from Drum Island, where he studied medicine under Dr. Kureha. Using a self-developed drug he calls Rumble Ball, Chopper can assume more than the three forms provided by his Devil Fruit ability alone. When complimented, Chopper acts really happy while either telling the person who complimented him to stop trying to make him happy, or that he isn't very happy.

Nico Robin - An archaeologist originating from Ohara, home of the world's largest and oldest library; she becomes an archaeologist at the age of eight and learns how to decipher the writings on the ancient stones called Poneglyph, which are scattered around the world. However, the World Government destroys the island for housing archaeologists along with her returning mother, Nico Olvia, researching these stones. As a result, Robin cooperates with various pirates and other outlaws, eventually becoming a member of Baroque Works as its vice president, nicknamed as "Ms. All-Sunday" at the time, being briefly an antagonist to the Straw Hat Pirates before joining them. Like the scholars of Ohara before her, it is her dream to find and decipher the Rio Poneglyph, which is said to tell the world's lost history. Her devotion to history and its preservation goes so far that she will even risk her life to protect ancient artifacts and buildings. Robin ate the Paramecia-type Flower-Flower Fruit, allowing her to create temporary copies of parts of her body on surfaces near her. However, if her replicated parts are hurt, she feels the pain on her actual body.

Franky - Originally named Cutty Flam, he eventually starts calling himself Franky to hide his identity. He gains infamy as "Cyborg" Franky and becomes shipwright of the Straw Hat Pirates. Abandoned by his pirate parents on the Grand Line island Water 7 at the age of ten, Franky becomes an apprentice to the master shipwright Tom along with Iceburg, who later becomes the island's mayor. When Tom is taken away as a criminal by the World Government for building Gold Roger's ship, the Oro Jackson, Franky tries to stop them. In the process, he is severely injured and, to survive, rebuilds parts of his body using pieces of scrap metal, turning himself into a cola-powered cyborg with super-human strength. His dream is to build a ship, become its shipwright, and sail it to the end of the world. To that end, he builds the Thousand Sunny, a brigantine-rigged sloop-of-war, and joins the Straw Hat Pirates.

Brook - Brook is a living skeleton, resurrected by the Paramecia-type Revive-Revive Fruit, which grants the user a second life. He is an excellent musician, who claims to be able to play any instrument, although he is usually seen playing the violin. He is also a skilled fencer, who uses a shikomizue (a Japanese cane sword), in battle. Brook can hypnotize people with his music. His lightweight skeleton body allows him to jump extraordinarily high and to run across water. He has a very childish and energetic personality. When Brook's crew, the "Rumbar Pirates", enters the Grand Line, they leave their pet whale "Laboon" behind at Reverse Mountain, promising to return after sailing around the world. Fifty years later, Brook considers it his duty to fulfill his former crew's promise.

Disclosure: I work for CNN, a subsidiary of the Turner Networks, which owns [adult swim], AKA, the place that just cancelled One Piece ... again. Also, I only found out a couple of hours before you guys did, I have no real insight behind the decision, but I've been working in television my entire adult career so I speak from some experience.

In case you hadn't heard the news, has once again been removed from American television. Toonami announced yesterday that March 18th will be the last night One Piece airs in it's 2:3o AM timeslot, and it will be replaced by Tokyo Ghoul.

Whatever your thoughts on the latter show, it's very sad for readers of our site and listeners of our podcast that One Piece will no longer be a part of the mainstream anime block. Especially since that block turns 20 years old the day before. So with this article I thought I'd try to put all of One Piece 's history on American television into perspective, and where the show goes from here.

Let's start at the beginning, and I mean the very beginning. One Piece first premiered on American TV inside the Fox Box, on September 18th, 2004. 4Kids heavily edited the dub, and made some... interesting choices.

Looking back we can now laugh at the dumb choices made by 4Kids to make the show appealing to a young demographic but to anyone who was reading the manga, which was running uncut in American Shonen Jump at the time, it was truly frustrating. This was legally the only game in town. One Piece never really seemed to find it's footing on Fox Box aiming at that really young demographic that previous 4Kids productions easily captured. Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were wildly popular anime with that 6-11 age demographic and 4Kids went ahead treated One Piece like any of it's other anime franchises. That seemed to backfire as it left the Fox Box, and ended up seeking the slightly older 9-14 demographic that watched Toonami.

Toonami premiered the 4Kids episodes on April 23rd, 2005, promoting the series with it's trademark Peter Cullen narration, and a Pelican City song. At this point, 4Kids' time with the license was coming to an end, and it's clear they didn't really want it. The episodes became a little less edited thanks to the eased restrictions of basic cable versus over the air broadcast, but that didn't really change anyone's mind on the show.

Once FUNimation got their hands on the show, you can tell they cared. They recast the dub and simultaneously began dubbing the show from the first episode, as well as continuing on from where Toonami was airing the show. FUNimation's episodes started airing on Toonami on August 25, 2007, but it seemed too little, too late. Not only did the show not really pick up an audience on TV, but Toonami itself was beginning to near its end. March 28th, 2008, the show met it's end, on its second network. Toonami itself, only ran for six more months after that on Cartoon Network.

While the series chugged along on Japanese TV, American DVD, and eventually simulcast streaming in 2009, there weren't really any avenues for it on TV anymore. [adult swim] action was still going, but it was clear to most people that it was basically on auto-pilot at this point. In that time though, One Piece continued on, growing in popularity without a presence on TV.

Cut to April 1st, 2012. [adult swim] plays an innocuous prank on an unsuspecting public by bringing Toonami back, bumps and all, for one night. The response was so uproariously positive, it became permanent a little less than 2 months later, and immediately, One Piece fans thought the show could come back. And they finally got their wish less than a year later when the Toonami staff announced at MoMoCon that the show would be given a third chance.

This time it would be aimed at the more 18-34 adult audience. Of course, a show as big as One Piece presents a lot of challenges. Where does the network start?

At the time of it's [adult swim] premiere, One Piece was 596 episodes long. The episodes have to be dubbed to air on television, so starting with the most recent Japanese episode was out of the question. You could start from the very start, but that would mean potentially stretched-out SD episodes for three or more years, likely making it look unappealing next to newer shows. You could start with the most recently dubbed episodes, but for those new to the show, they'd likely be completely lost.

Ultimately Toonami decided to start from episode 207, because that's when the show first went HD and shortly after the Davy Back Arc, there was a couple of filler episodes that happen to flashback to earlier events of the series, giving people an idea of how the crew came together.

Of course all that planning doesn't work if you don't promote it. However, Toonami did that and more. They teamed up with FUNimation to make sure the previous 206 episodes were streaming and encouraged viewers to stream it before the premiere. FUNimation even made one of their staffers binge watch all 206 episodes before the premiere, and streamed it online. It was in regular [adult swim] bumps, it had Naruto as a strong lead in, and they even had Steve Blum, the voice of TOM, speak like a pirate to sell the show. The One Piece Podcast even spoke with Toonami co-creator Jason DeMarco when it premiered in 2013.

And it worked! One Piece won it's timeslot when it premiered, and continued to win it's timeslot for a while. However, as these things go, eventually the newer shows started to outdo it and it began to slip further down the schedule.

That didn't mean they stopped promoting One Piece. Along with its usual appearance in the line-up promos, it even got a Enies Lobby promo, and it had an extra run at 8:30 PM on Saturdays, outside the block. Dragon Ball Z Kai was it's lead in at 8pm, and there's no better lead in than that (except Family Guy, never underestimate the lead-in power of Family Guy).

As time went on though, the show was clearly losing viewership. Everyone can point to one thing that did it, but it's never just one thing in the TV business. There's all sorts of variables that can be summarized somewhat, but really we'll never know the full scope of where it went wrong.

The basic factors that I believe brought on it's almost somewhat sudden cancellation announcement yesterday, come down to two things: Ratings and money.

I think everyone understands the basic concept of ratings. Ratings are high if people are watching, ratings are low if people aren't. There's more to it than that, but that is as basic an explanation that is out there. The other thing people might not be so familiar with is the money factor. With shows that [adult swim] acquires (meaning shows they didn't create or produce, like Bob's Burgers or Dragon Ball, versus shows they did create or produce, like Rick And Morty or Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex) means that they have to pay to air the episode every time it's on. One Piece is one of Toei Animation's crown jewels, and FUNimation does really well with the show, not to mention its ridiculous episode count (at the moment, 779 and still going strong). That can't be cheap for a network to spend on a show that isn't performing as well as they hoped it would. Especially when they could possibly get a show for less money that could potentially pull in more viewers. With the exceptions of Samurai Jack and Ghost In The Shell, every show on the block is an acquisition. If one's not pulling it's weight, it's probably better to find another show.

There are outside factors as well, but the one I would place as the biggest factor is that most people are ahead. I'm going to bet that most people who read this website or listen to our podcast don't watch One Piece on Toonami regularly. Most people on this site are probably caught up with FUNimation's dub, are caught up with the simulcast subtitled streams, or are reading the manga as it comes out in English Weekly Shonen Jump. The fandom of One Piece, at least in my eyes, is way ahead of Toonami. Heck, I'm way ahead of Toonami, and I stopped reading the manga last year (because I got busy at work, I'll come back to it!).

It's really easy to armchair quarterback the TV business, but to be honest, [adult swim] had the patience of saints with One Piece and gave it every opportunity in the world. No other network would have been as kind to it, allowing it to just sink in the ratings and not cancelling it way sooner. We got nearly four years of weekly One Piece on American television, only interrupted for movies and marathons.

Even One Piece got its own marathon. [adult swim] diligently put up their episodes on their website and on cable on-demand services, making the show as widely available as they possibly could and it just couldn't sustain that momentum we saw back when it premiered.

Despite all of that, despite the show not being able to finish it's run on American TV, they still felt the need to give it a proper send off. What other network would do that?

No other network would do that for One Piece, so why did Williams Street?

They're fans.

No, really, they are fans of One Piece. A couple of the employees have models and figures from the show. They may not be the most knowledgeable about it, like the readership of this website, but that doesn't mean they don't love and cherish the world that Oda created. They are as heartbroken as you are, possibly even more so because they wanted this show to work on TV more than anyone else. The entire TV industry is going through a lot of big changes right now (which is a whole other topic) and they have to stay really competitive. Just being a fan isn't enough to will something into a success.

So where does that leave One Piece? Where does the show go from here? Well... it just keeps going. FUNimation is gonna keep dubbing the show, English Weekly Shonen Jump is going to continue being released, and its simulcast has never been quicker. Of course you should absolutely continue supporting the official release, whether that's streaming it on Crunchyroll's or FUNimation's sites, buy the VIZ Manga volumes, going to see it in theaters when you can, everything. I will say that, at least anecdotally, One Piece's popularity has grown in the last couple of years. Every yearly con I go to, I always see an increase in One Piece cosplay and merchandise. The franchise is not going anywhere. It's still the top selling manga of all time (a feat that happened to be accomplished when the show re-emerged on Toonami). Sure, probably a lot of people discovered it on TV, but there was a long time there where it wasn't on TV and the fandom still grew.

It's sad to see One Piece leave American television for a third time, and while there's always the possibility it could come back, it seems to have run it's course on this platform. We shouldn't ignore the success it's had on other platforms though and continue to support it. If you want to attempt to change [adult swim]'s mind (slim to none chance of that happening, but if you want to TRY), tune in these next 2 weeks and watch as much as you can on-demand and on their website.

At the very least, we can give it the send off it deserves.

Watch One Piece, Saturday, March 11th (12th) at 2:30am EST and Saturday, March 18th (19th) at 2:30am EST.

TO BE CONTINUED...

If you'd like to follow me on Twitter, @Jose_CNN is my username. I tweet a lot about news and Ghost In The Shell these days, but I'll definitely be tweeting about One Piece at 2:30am, for as long as it's on. Join me, won't you?

"Eiichiro Oda" ha sido elegido por los usuarios como uno de los mejores de esta Wiki.

Eiichiro Oda

Familia

Chiaki Inaba (稲葉ちあき (尾田精一郎 Inaba Chiaki Oda Seiichiro ? ) (padre)? ) (esposa); Dos hijas nacidas en 2006 y 2009; Seiichiro Oda

Dado el gran éxito que One Piece ha cosechado es el creador de manga que más dinero ha ganado así como el que más copias ha vendido y es considerado, junto a Akira Toriyama, uno de los dibujantes más influyentes de la historia de Japón .

Eiichiro Oda está casado con Chiaki Inaba (稲葉ちあき, Inaba Chiaki), una ex modelo y actriz, desde el 7 de noviembre de 2004. Ambos se conocieron en 2003 durante la Jump Festa 2004.

Oda e Inaba han tenido dos hijas; la mayor nació en 2006 y la menor en 2009.

Apariencia

En la vida real, Oda es un hombre japonés de estatura media, con pocas características distintivas (si es que tiene alguna). En la actualidad usa gafas, tiene una leve perilla y lleva el pelo largo. Cuando no está en entornos formales, favorece la ropa casual de estilo occidental.

Como la mayoría de los mangakas, Oda generalmente usa caricaturas extravagantes para representarse a sí mismo en obras impresas. El más común de estos es un pez tropical rayado, mejor conocido por "dar" todos los comentarios semanales de Oda en la tabla de contenido de Shonen Jump; en representaciones más detalladas (como los encabezados de la conversación monocromática de Color Walks), a este pez generalmente se le dan orejas humanas y se fijan sobre un cuerpo humano como una máscara.

Primeros años

Cuando era niño, Oda se inspiró mucho en los piratas y vikingos y aspiraba a convertirse en un artista de manga. Él creo a un personaje llamado Pandaman. Pandaman es un personaje recurrente que hace varios cameos, tanto en el manga como en el anime. También a añadido varios , además de Pandaman a su obra tales como la marca Doskoi Panda. Oda fue inspirado por el creador de Dr. Slump y Dragon Ball, Akira Toriyama. Cuando era joven, le gustaba jugar al fútbol en la escuela y fue apodado Odacchi por sus amigos. Más tarde dio voz a Odacchi en " Rey del Fútbol de Ensueño" corto que fue añadido a la película El reino de Chopper en la isla de los extraños monstruos.

Años como asistente (1992-1997)

En 1992, Oda a los 17 años comenzó su carrera en la industria del manga comenzando como asistente de tres mangakas diferentes para la revista semanal Shonen Jump. Ese mismo año presentó su primera obra titulada Wanted! por la que ganó el segundo lugar en el Premio Tezuka. Al principio trabajó con Masaya Tokuhiro en Jungle King Tar-Chan en 1992. En 1994, trabajó brevemente con Shinobu Kaitani con Kaitani Suizan Police Gang antes de volver a Tokuhiro. En el mismo año, salió de la universidad como un estudiante de primer año. Después de que Jungle King terminó su publicación en 1995, él y Tokuhiro llegó a crear Mizu no Tomodachi Kappaman, que apareció desde 1995 hasta 1996. También en el mismo año fue a trabajar con Nobuhiro Watsuki en Rurouni Kenshin en 1996. Durante este tiempo conoció a Oda Hiroyuki Takei otro asistente de Watsuki, que más tarde seria el creador de Shaman King. Oda dibujó algunas escenas en su manga con su propio estilo artístico.

Durante 1993 y 1994, creó otras obras como El regalo de Dios para el futuro (1993), (1994) y (1994), esta última más tarde se mezclaría con One Piece.

A finales de 1996, sin dejar de trabajar con Watsuki, creó dos one-shots para su próximo manga inicialmente llamados Romance Dawn, y mucho más tarde Romance Dawn: Amanecer de una aventura, que se convertiría en el primer capítulo de One Piece. En 1997, dejó de trabajar para Nobuhiro, y comenzar a trabajar en One Piece, haciendo muchos de los primeros bocetos One Piece que aparecerían en el Color Walk 1. Planeó la fase inicial de One Piece (capítulos 1-8), antes de que empezara oficialmente.

Sin embargo, él hizo muchos cambios, como cambiar el nombre de Boogie a Buggy, cambiando a Zoro de ser un hombre de confianza de Buggy de ser un espadachín errante, y el cambio la apariencia de Morgan (que originalmente iba a parecer un Sumo, pero los editores de Oda querían cambiarlo, y Oda aceptó). Más tarde Nobuhiro Watsuki haría un tributo a su ex-asistente dibujando el Jolly Roger de los Piratas de Sombrero de Paja en un capítulo de Rurouni Kenshin como una imagen sobre una bomba utilizado por Gein, uno de los subordinados de Yukishiro Enishi.

One Piece (1997-Actualidad)

Finalmente, en agosto de 1997, creó su obra característica, One Piece. Después de haber sido inspirado por los piratas, hizo One Piece una serie de piratas.

En 1998, Oda hizo los diseños para el primer OVA y estaba feliz de ver One Piece animado. En 1999, Toei Animation animo la serie y el personal a menudo se reúne con Oda para discutir sobre cómo manejar la serie animada.

A finales de 2003, durante el festival Jump Festa de 2004, Eiichiro Oda, de 28 años, conoció a Chiaki Inaba (稲葉ちあき, Inaba Chiaki), de 25. Para ese entonces, Inaba era una modelo, actriz, "Campaign Girl", "Race Queen" y "Gravure Idol". Ambos se conocieron cuando Chiaki interpretó el papel de Nami en "ONE PIECE Spectacle Stage" un musical de acción en vivo producido por este festival desde 2001 hasta 2003.

Tras este encuentro en el año 2003 durante el espectáculo "Operation Luffy Pirates Destruction" (ルフィ海賊団壊滅作戦, Rufi kaizoku-dan kaimetsu sakusen) que tuvo lugar en la Jump Festa 2004, ambos mantuvieron una relación de un año. Se casaron el 7 de noviembre de 2004. En 2006, Chiaki Inaba dio a luz a una niña, la primera hija de Oda. Oda e Inaba se convierten nuevamente en padres al dar la bienvenida a una segunda hija que nació en 2009.

La familia de Oda reside en una mansión, en el barrio Nerima, ubicado en el área metropolitana de Tokio. Oda compró esta casa en 2006, año en que nació su primera hija. Oda, Inaba y sus dos hijas, se van de vacaciones al extranjero aproximadamente una vez al año.

En abril de 2006, Oda inesperadamente cayó enfermo y One Piece no se publicó durante esa semana. Sin embargo se recuperó y reanudó One Piece en semana próxima. Debido a su reciente enfermedad, Oda sintió que era necesario ponerse al día con sus lectores y creo el Grand Times. Más tarde ese mismo año, se unió a Akira Toriyama para crear un crossover entre Dragon Ball y One Piece titulado Cross Epoch.

En 2007, en la Jump Fiesta 2008, en ausencia de Shuichi Ikeda (seiyu de Shanks), cuando los actores de voz actuaron para un omake protagonizado por Shanks, Oda llevaba una peluca rosa para el papel y explicó que sólo haría esto porque One Piece estaba en su décimo año.

También participó en la redacción y dirección de la décima película de One Piece, la primera película en la que fue el guionista, en honor al décimo aniversario del anime One Piece.

En 2011 después del Terremoto y tsunami de Japón, Oda y otros mangakas dibujaron mensajes de apoyo a las víctimas.

En junio de 2014 se toma un descanso de dos semanas para ser operado de amígdalas, el autor bromea con que de paso pedirá que le instalen un bazooka en el hombro. El año anterior el autor también tuvo que hacer un parón durante dos semanas debido también a las amígdalas.

Debido a su intenso trabajo de rutina, Oda duerme solo tres horas por noche, según cuenta el mismo. Además, vive separado de su esposa e hijas, las cuales lo visitan una vez por semana en su lugar de trabajo. Oda visita el hogar familiar en vacaciones; una lujosa mansión ubicada en el barrio de Nerima, Tokio. En una entrevista a Oda en 2019, se supo que tras casarse en 2004, le prometió a su esposa que al finalizar el manga de One Piece, se irían de viaje por el mundo. Ya que, según el, había dicho que lo acabaría en diez años.

Oda ha declarado en una entrevista que después de terminar One Piece no haría ningún otro manga tan largo, ya que duda mucho que alcance la fama de One Piece, y solo hará historias cortas.

Su nombre a menudo aparece escrito en los episodios del anime, por ejemplo apareció en el Episodio 70 en un libro (minuto 18:08), y en un espejo en el Episodio 21 (minuto 2:53).

El avatar de Oda (con una cabeza de pescado), es un personaje de apoyo en One Piece Giant Battle y One Piece: Gigant Battle! 2 New World: dibuja un panel de manga que atrapa a los oponentes.

Curiosamente, en una reciente encuesta japonesa, Eiichiro Oda está clasificado como el 31º personaje más popular de One Piece, a pesar del hecho de que nunca se ha incluido a sí mismo en el manga (excepto en los SBS).

Método de trabajo

Al igual que muchos otros mangakas, Eiichiro Oda utiliza diversas herramientas para dibujar su manga. Para hacer bocetos y dibujar cada página del manga, utiliza (como muchos otros artistas de todo el mundo, no sólo mangaka) lápices junto con gomas de borrar y una goma de borrar de arte para corregir los errores. Para la tinta de las páginas, Oda utiliza G-Pen, Pen Maru y bolígrafos recargables afiladas para entintar. Para hacer correcciones después de entintar, utiliza tinta blanca.

Para pintar las páginas a color, Oda utiliza marcadores Copic, una marca de marcadores de colores recargables que varios otros mangakas usan para tal fin. Aunque no se ha confirmado, se ha mostrado recientemente que puede pintar con acuarelas.

Al igual que muchos otros artistas de manga, Oda parece no utilizar métodos digitales. Esta es una característica que comparte con muchos mangakas, en términos de hacer un manga lo más artesanal posible. Eso es algo que los artistas no japoneses no suelen hacer, sobre todo estadounidenses y europeos, que prefieren la forma digital, a trabajar sobre las herramientas tradicionales, por su sencillez y alta calidad. Aunque no está confirmado, Oda no parece emplear efectos digitales evidentes en sus páginas del manga.

Comentó en una de las primeras secciones de SBS que por lo general ya tiene 4 capítulos listos, antes de que se publique uno cada semana, hay una diferencia de tiempo entre el momento en que un capítulo está terminado y enviado a Shueisha, que será publicado en la revista alrededor de 4 semanas (a veces más, a veces menos) después. También ha comentado en otra ocasión que tiene un promedio de 5 asistentes que le ayudan en el entintado y dibujando a lápiz los detalles o los fondos y para aplicar los tonos grises.

Él ha comentado que él prefiere pintar negro en lugar de utilizar tonos de grises, haciendo su manga casi en blanco y negro, sin tonos de gris. Utiliza tonos grises sólo para realizar efectos especiales (como sombreado a un personaje en una escena dramática, para demostrar un panel bajo el agua, para mostrar una escena en la oscuridad o con planos separados), no para resaltar un color (la única excepción de esto es para el pelo Shanks).

Formato del argumento

Dado que el manga se centra en el avance de los Piratas de Sombrero de Paja en su viaje a través del Grand Line, no deja de tener un "formato". Como se vio en sus one-shots, a Oda le gusta poner a sus personajes en situaciones extremas que deben superar. Mientras que muchas de las situaciones son bastante graves, también disfruta incluyendo una cantidad significativa de humor en la serie.

Oda es conocido por usar en variadas ocasiones el efecto de sonido Don y por dar a sus personajes una risa distintiva diferente a una normal. Oda también incluye diversos animales en sus dibujos, y es responsable de las numerosas apariciones de animales dentro de la historia. También ha informado que disfruta de los giros repentinos en la historia. A menudo añade elementos a la trama, y estos vuelven a incluirse mucho más adelante a menudo con una historia importante no revelada antes, como el caso de la introducción del abuelo de Luffy, Monkey D. Garp, que fue presentado simplemente como "Garp" en una portada del manga, o el Haki, que se introdujo con Shanks con solo "causar miedo" al Señor de la Costa, mucho antes de que este explicara que fue lo que exactamente hizo. También el one-shot "Monsters" no tenia indicios de poder pertenecer a la trama argumental de la serie, hasta que se confirmo.

Evolución del arte

Al inicio de One Piece Oda estaba preocupado por su estilo artístico. En ese momento era más favorable tener personajes de ojos grandes, que el viejo estilo de ojos con forma de punto. One Piece es también conocida por sus numerosos diseños de personajes extraños y con proporciones extremas, que se hizo cada vez más común y exagerado a medida que la serie avanzaba. Un estilo que One Piece a lo largo de una década fue cambiando a como es hoy. En un principio utilizó muchas líneas gruesas, con un arte redondo e hinchable. Con el tiempo, las líneas fueron más delgadas y el sombreado de línea se utilizó ampliamente.

Las características de los personajes se han vuelto más floja hasta el punto de que Zoro, por ejemplo, puede parecer bufonesco en un marco y un espadachín duro en el próximo. Luffy puede parecer más adulto en un momento, antes de volver a una apariencia más de niño (debido a que Dragon Ball ya había representado a uno, Oda pensó en "hombría" para su protagonista). En su introducción, Chopper no tenía su forma chibi de ahora, aunque él siempre se consideró lindo.

Los fondos y diseños eran bastante sosos en comparación con otros más recientes. Estos eran funcionales y bien elaborados, pero no eran tan definidos como ahora.

El cambio de estilo es en realidad extremadamente apropiado. El arte parece ser más detallado, emocionalmente e intensa mientras la trama avanza volviéndose más madura.

Chiaki Inaba

Chiaki Inaba (prefectura de Kanagawa, Kantō, Japón; 4 de enero de 1978) es la esposa de Oda. Es una ex modelo, actriz, "Campaign Girl", "Race Queen" y "Gravure Idol".

Es durante el espectáculo llamado "Operation Luffy Pirates Destruction" (ルフィ海賊団壊滅作戦, Rufi kaizoku-dan kaimetsu sakusen) que se conocieron a fines de 2003 durante la Jump Festa 2004 e iniciaron una relación que duró un año antes de contraer matrimonio.

Eiichiro Oda y Chiaki Inaba se casaron el 7 de noviembre de 2004. Fruto de esta unión, Oda e Inaba se convirtieron en padres de dos hijas; le dieron la bienvenida a su primera hija a mediados de 2006 y luego a una segunda hija, la cuál nació en 2009. Chiaki se retiró del modelaje y la actuación en octubre de 2004, un mes antes de contraer matrimonio.

Chiaki Inaba y sus dos hijas residen en una opulenta mansión ubicada en el barrio Nerima (練馬区, Nerima-ku) una zona de clase alta perteneciente al área metropolitana de Tokio; la cuál es visitada por Oda durante sus descansos. Oda compró esta casa en 2006, tras el nacimiento de su primera hija. Oda, Inaba y sus dos hijas se van de vacaciones al extranjero aproximadamente una vez al año.
