[Question] Oda and Shonen Jump

[North Kai]

ok first, this is the One Piece section!

Just something I was wondering about

Does anyone know anything or have any idea about how much influence SJ and the editors have on Oda's manga at this point? Do they even? or do they just let Oda do what he wants considering the success of One Piece?

They take 40% cuts on each chapter as the publishing rights belongs to them and Oda kun get the rest minus taxes and other fees

I don't wanna be an ass but where exactly did you see me ask about the financial aspect of anything? this post just seems like a really forced bad attempt of a subtle jab at Oda

 

[Olorin]

well One Piece is the best selling manga of all time so I imagine SJ just let's Oda do what he wants since he's by far their biggest earner

Oda does seem like the mangaka who will do whatever he wants but I did remember hearing somewhere that he never intended on making OP last like 15 years+.

 

[Dr Strangelove]

Surely it would be in their best interest to let him do what he wants. He has done brilliantly so far why intervene?

no he didn't because he never thought it would be that successful so he changed his mind ... thank god for that

Oda is oda(synonmous with awesome) so I think they let the man roll his way and anyways I think they owe him at least as much as letting him b the main plot twister and all in all there are lyk only 2 beings that wld know onepiece at Oda's lvl, his better half(pillow talk rules) and God(the real one).
