Looks like there's some mix-ups here. Vegapank's quote implies stuff at the climax of the Wano arc


I'd be surprised if it's 2 on 1 lmao. Most likely Luffy will fight BM first then Kaidou. Also this feels like very broad outlines given to the Toei Senior Director by Oda. A heads-up on some of the major up-coming events.


Whereas Leo's quote may be more immediate:


Feels like he's hyping the upcoming fight between Luffy and Kaidou in the anime. The one where Luffy got KOed. Not necessarily talking about some future speculated final bout at the end of Wano or the climactic battle.

And looks like they are trippling down on the '5-year' thing. Managing expectations it seems.

-Shinji Shimizu was in an interview 32 min, talking about various stuff and did not mention anything about luffy and kaido fight (in someway he is saying the upcoming episodes will be amazing) in the anime

-Shinji Shimizu said”the wano arc is the most important arc in the story and at the end of it there will be information that will shock everyone,and people will have information about what one piece is, talking about luffy va kaido and big mom fight(he said it like this did not say 1vs1 both), also said about the ending of the story will be sadder than ace death, and they want to use chapters covers in the anime but currently they are busy and Toei animation they chooses the color of the characters and oda’s designer either agree or not


EDIT
-also said the fight between luffy and kaido and BM will be amazing
-aslo did not said that the story will end in 5 years he only said the story is over 50% and Yoshihisa Heishi (Editor-in-Chief in shonen jump) who said that

Thanks
So he's most likely not fighting both alone confirmed
Oda isn't that dumb

Zoro will die that will shocked fans...:sus::milaugh::milaugh::funky::gokulaugh::gokulaugh::finally:
This is Baitttt :seriously::pepeke:
I am opposed to anybody besides Luffy and Zoro dying. Those two can die because they had the best (relative) childhood among the crew and have no goal that can take them beyond the final War.

Rest have had (well, except Brook but he is already dead) horrible childhoods and deserve happiness in life.



Luffy beating Kaido was always plausible. And I have no problem with it. I don't think it will happen, but if it does, it won't be something new.

We've seen it before. The villain one-shots Luffy the first-time and eventually gets beaten by Luffy some chapters later.

I'd prefer Luffy/Zoro team-up, but it is not set in stone.
yeah but kaido is a yonko..There's no way that Luffy will beat him alone at least not yet..tbf no one can solo him imo
A Luffy/Zoro team up is pretty much what i expect

Yup. There you go. Even if he had been specifically referencing 'Luffy vs Kaidou', the only one that is imminent is the upcoming one in the anime. Not to some hypothetical climactic battle since we aren't even there in the manga.

This fucking 5year aren't enough, if Oda want to rush everything and run into the wall while skipping all most interessting battles, the ending gonna be sure very bad because of so many plotholes are left.
Can't understand why they decide to make such answers, I just hope Oda is here just trolling us...
Think of it more as an internal cut-off point. He's not going to literally end OP on a certain date to make it 5 years down the line. I think it's more a deadline for himself. He has enough material and outlines for 5 years - give or take. But, Oda being Oda, he often goes off-tangent, creates new characters and new plots and new storylines which then expand and extend the story, sometimes well beyond the initial notes he had.

The 5 years is now all about resolving outstanding issues, getting to the core of the story. Not making up new major plotlines anymore. Again, don't take it necessarily as Gospel or literal truth here. He'll fudge things around and we may get an ending beyond the 5-year mark. But, ultimately his stated goal and aim is to try and end it all in 5 years. It's all about self-discipline.

There's no penalty if he does it in 5-7 years though lol

Zoro too stronk to downfall
 
I remember arguing with @Paperchampion23 on how Wano should end in 80-90 chapters and most people thought it would take 120-150 chapters (some going as far as 200 chapters).

Even I have problems believing that Oda can end it in 5 years, specially since he is now reducing output to 3 chapter per cycle.

I think we still have:

Wano: 40 chapters
Elbaf: 20 chapters
Vegapunk/BB: 80 chapters
Raftel: 20 chapters
Final War: 80 chapters

At the minimum. Which means 7 years if 35 chapters per year output holds.
5 out of the last 6 years we've had 39 chapter released per year however this year it seems like we'll only get 37 unless oda doesn't take anymore breaks
 
Trust me, 5 years are enought, to end OP without rushing it.
If Oda want to offpanel most fights and only take care for the story, even then it would be still to hard.
We are still in wano and until the next year the flashback would going on, we gonna get also Kaido flashback and I don´t think Wano gonna end until 2021. Alone for Wano we have still many question and plotholes which Oda must fill.

-Oden Flashback(Probably take until the new year)
-The fire festival
-Even around it as with the Navy,Weevil,Marco and Nekomamushi(didn´t still arrive). Alone the Weevil thing is something which we should ask himself, did Luffy really need him as Enemy after he take down Kaido? I don´t think yet im sure Luffy will face Weevil and beat him before Kaido goes down and we most like getting Weevil story aswell.
-We don´t know if the fire festival gonna be a happy end for the strawhats, they can still lose to Big mom and Kaido(if they don´t get helped by the Navy).
-Strawhats alone getting fight panels, more then in Dressrosa when Oda even skipp most fights and end them with one chapter. Im sure one strawhat alone in Wano get at least 2 fight chapters...
-Plotstory around Big mom, do you guys think Luffy gonna defeat both Big mom and Kaido? I don´t think also we have the story whole around Jinbe and the Germa66 which we still don´t know.
-Zoro own flashback(Im sure he getting one) and grow up in this arc overall...

Many other things alone can put in Wano, probably even in 2021 Wano still going continue.
I mean look at Whole Cake island arc alone, something which should get handle at best with 40-50chapters, get at least over 70chapters...
We have Luffy own battle against Kid later in the story, plotstory around the Shichibukai, Vegapunk and also Elbaf(Big mom), new weapon of the Navy getting test... Plotstory around Sabo and co...Shanks crew vs Blackbeard pirates and then the raftel event with the Strawhats vs Blackbeard. And then we most like getting the final arc.

How Oda want to take everything around this in 5years? I would understand if they mean with 5 years that they reaching the final arc of One piece(not the end of the one piece manga). Be honest I don´t think all this could finish in 5years but I respect your opinion about it.
Probably Im just think to negative about these 5years because of the bad ending with I see in Bleach,Naruto,Fairy tail and Nanatsu, I hope Oda could do all of them, but im still skeptical.

Summery of the interview ^

either Shinji Shimizu or Yoshihisa Heishi in the interview did not confirm the story will end in 5 years only Yoshihisa Heishi said the story is over 50%

there is more in the interview but about technical stuff ,production and anniversary

Yes, but near the end of this year, he went to 3 chapter per cycle. With 3 chapter per cycle, there should be 35 chapters per year.

So he's talking about events in the future, perhaps the climax of the arc. Ok understood. This time it looks like we might be having a three-way after all.

I mean, if Luffy can take down 2 Yonkou at once Shanks and BB are pushovers now lol. I find that unlikely.

So did Yoshihisa state the 50% thing? and not the 5 year thing?

Only 50% I though we already reach 70-80%??
Vega since you are here, I check Scotch manga schedule, do we getting breaks before we getting two times the jump break?
After double issue 4-5# there is break (depends on chapter 968)then chapter 968 with also double issue 6-7# after that there is two weeks break

all that the magazine breaks without counting oda breaks

possibly there will be more than these breaks

chapter 968 will be leaked too early on 22-29 Dec and it's official release is on 4 Jan

Naruto was getting a new power up every 10 chapters :gokulaugh:

But my issues with Naruto were more about the themes and characterization more than power creep.
Luffy can get a flashback every 10 chapters :feelsokeman:

If the translation is accurate it will be Kaido vs BM vs Luffy
It's not Luffy vs "Kaido and BM"

BM and Kaido will weaken each other for most of the fight so Luffy can do sh** srsly Kaido and BM clashed for a couple of days u rly think Luffy can stand a chance vs both of them?At the same time?

Don't get why people think that Oda's 5 year plan is outrageous?

I believe them. If they go out of their way to stress it out so damn often, then I believe that there is something to it. We just need to wait and see how Oda deals with some plot elements, mainly Big mom, Elbaf and Shanks.

- Kaido's place to fall is Wano.
- Blackbeard will be taken down at Raftel.
- Marines/WG are the last enemies, it's also going to be Dragon's main arc.

Only Shanks, Big mom and the Elbaf arc seem to be in the way of the 5 year plan
Teach isnt making raftel
His arc comes before raftel.

No Emperor makes it after Yonko Saga.
