I just saw the new episode, it was nice.
And Japan isn't the place that matters U.S. is, Japan isn't as popular as U.S. in all honesty
LOL.
LOL.
Japan isn't the place that matters?
If it wasn't for Japan, there'd be no Naruto or no One Piece. If there was no Japan, there'd be no manga or anime..
There are more people watching anime and reading manga in Japan than there are in US.
What has country popularity to do with anything? Japan isn't as popular as US? LOL.. That has no meaning in this discussion.

"Since its release, One Piece has become the most popular manga series of all time in Japan and one of the most popular manga series worldwide. It is the highest-selling manga of all time in the history of Weekly Shōnen Jump, as well as currently being its most acclaimed manga.[1] In 2010, Shueisha announced that they sold over 230 million volumes of One Piece manga so far; volume 61 set a new record for the highest initial print run of any book in Japan in history with 3.8 million copies (the previous record belonging to volume 60 with 3.4 million copies). Volume 60 is the first book to sell over two million copies in its opening week on Japan's Oricon book rankings.[2] One Piece is currently ranked as the best-selling series of all time in manga history.[3] It enjoys a very high readership, with more than 250 million volumes of the series sold by 2011. One Piece has received wide critical acclaim from reviewers, primarily for its art, characterization, humor and story."
"One Piece is also the first manga to increase Weekly Shōnen Jump's sales in eleven years"
" Volume 61 holds a manga publishing record in Japan, with 3.8 million copies published in its first printing alone, breaking its own previous records established by volumes 57, 59 and 60 (at 3.0, 3.2 and 3.4 million copies respectively)"
" In addition to that, it also broke Japan's all time first print publishing record of all books, passing the previous record of 2.9 million copies, held by Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix."
"Since 2010 One piece has sold 54.8 million copies out of its total of around 250 million copies. This amounted to more than number 2 Naruto, number 3 Kimi ni Todoke, number 4 Fairy Tail, number 5 Bleach, number 6 Bakuman, number 7 Gintama and number 8 Fullmetal Alchemist combined."
