Last year, Oda said in regards to the manga he’d wrap up the Whole Cake Island arc and run into the Reverie council of kings and Wano arcs in 2017.
Then, over the summer, One Piece editor Takumi Naito and publisher Shueisha’s Taku Sugita said Wano will be amazing… the biggest thing to hit the series since The Marine Ford arc.
It involves Shueisha, Toei Animation, and Bandai Namco, plus the cooperation of Eiichiro Oda.
