During the interview, Oda said that when he first started writing One Piece, he had anticipated it take only about 5 years, and he never expected it to go on for more than 17 years. Apparently, because of new characters in One Piece keep appearing — and because of the unending amount of sudden inspiration that Oda constantly experiences – it has gone on for much longer than he first anticipated. “I think I should be able to continue to draw One Piece for another 10 years!” Furthermore, the article adds that according to Oda, not all the members of the pirate crew have assembled just yet. “There’s still the possibility for more members to appear one after the other!” (Possibly Rebecca, Viola, Bartolomeo, Ucy, Jinbei, or even Law !!!)


According to Japanese One Piece fansite LOGPIECE, the quote in BOLD translates as “There’s going to be more (crewmates) appearing successively!”(「まだ続々と現れますよ!」) which greatly changes the degree with which we can expect new crew mates to join the Straw Hat, but as with any translation, it’s all a matter of nuance. One thing is certain, the chance of new people joining is not inexistant at all!

Tbh It kind of makes sense that OP is so long considering how big each of the SH's goals are. The more OP, the better.

Disagree on both points. I want a fighter female, not someone like Rebecca. If Law joins, it'll throw the balance of the M3 off. Regarding the anime, I hope it f*cking ends and some other studio picks it up from episode 1. Give it some Madhouse (HxH) treatment.

Oda said he could do 10 more years. I'm saying he has at least 3-5 years tops

By "unending amount of inspiration," I think he means money. Which would be plenty of inspiration for anyone.

What does that mean ?

Does he still have at least 3-5 years
or does he have 3-5 years tops ?

Just by story expansion and how to end it. Plus he said he might start another manga series after one piece (something to do with robots)

Why the hell would you want another skirt in the shc?
They should get a badass male...if you want to see strong females go and watch fairy tail...
Strong females are disgusting

So I'm guessing Hancock is disgusting? She's a fighter.

SHONEN IS FOR BOYS

How can you take rebbeca seriously? She is dresses like a jay walker and whats worse is that she is 16!
How can Kyros even allow her daughter to dress like that..well then again Kyros is a pedo

And am i the only one who thinks Rebecca looks like Nami and and Violet looks like Robin?

The perfect OP girl is Makino...she is decent,attractive and not a fan service hooker

Imo the perfect female lead was Yusuke Urameshi's girl friend from.Yu Yu Hakusho...she was attractive and decent and she was never potrayed as a common fan service girl

She's a awesome pirate if she gets revoked then maybe she'll join the StrawHats
Not every warlord that gets revoked will join the SH's. -_-
