Anime & Manga One Piece Spoilers - The Wailing Room

[Warine]

Oda got no diffed by zoro living rent free in his head

 

[Toby D. Dog]

Ngl I might sound alarmist but the breaks are getting bigger and more frequent. Not that long ago it was "just" a break every 3-4 chapter. Idk if it is motivation or health issues but this is noticeable. i've been reading the series weekly since fishman ilsand

Shonen jump forces a lot of the breaks on him ever since that health scare around dressrosa.

My guess? Bro went down there and caught something. Wether it was the weather or some virus, shonen jump will try and make sure he’s good to go even if it means making him take a month long break.

 

[Kurozumi Wiwi]

He got no new audience and can't keep the one he used to have so I don't know, it mostly comes down to consistency

Yeah, One Piece might have had "covid boom" in the west but in Japan it doesn't attract any new reader.

 

[NikaInParis]

Game of thrones failed.

Not comercially, no. It was a financial success overall. The last season was bad, ofc. But they're still pumping out spin off shows with their own following.

 

[Monster Luffy]

It ain't hitting rock bottom tho. It's the main cash cow of Shonen Jump and has been for nearly 15 years. It's too big to fail at this point.

I know but it could have been at even better position if not for unme distraction. Oda health breaks are unavoidable and much needed but this other distractions not allowing the manga to reach its potential is making me sad.

 

[Sbinotto]

Genuinely I think the manga should just go to monthly release. B

Considering the 3 week breaks and the Christmas and the New year break it’s a sort of monthly release

 

[Warine]

One Piece lasting over 15 years is a mistake Oda made

Stories like One Piece are meant to last not more than 15 years
Write it, finish it and then enjoy retirement by making sequels or canon movies for different characters/plots you didn't explore mucu

Look at what Toriyama did or other series

One piece stretching out is the best thing to happen to this story, the yankers saga would have killed the manga if it happened over the shishibukai

 

[MonsterZoro]

redon got exposed due to oda health you love to see it

 

[Toby D. Dog]

Not comercially, no. It was a financial success overall. The last season was bad, ofc. But they're still pumping out spin off shows with their own following.

It did make the franchise take a relevance hit. For years no one cared or talked about it. HOtD changed that but that cultural relevance it used to have is gone.

 

[MonochromeYoru]

It wasn't even ticklish for Warcury tbh. Condom just hurt his hand. Topman is a brick wall on defense

 

[Kurozumi Wiwi]

Imagine if Oda caught something in South Africa

Except for a giant pile of junk

 

[MonsterZoro]

[Zoroe]

Imagine if Oda caught something in South Africa

Y'all acting like he was in the jungle, bro instead was only in fancy places

 

[NikaInParis]

I agree that the quality of the arcs has been questionable. That's a separate discussion tho, and could rely on editors being lax with him more than side projects, too

 

[Monster Luffy]

Yeah, One Piece might have had "covid boom" in the west but in Japan it doesn't attract any new reader.

I don't know about other countries but OP gained so many fans from India recently. And OP has their own chunk of readers and they don't specially need new readers in japan.

 

[MonsterZoro]

oda needs to hand the story down to someone his art is shit and his jokes is not funny

 

[MonochromeYoru]
