With One Piece releasing its 100th volume manga volume tomorrow, the editor for the series at Weekly Shonen Jump, Yuuji Iwasaki, spoke with Sankei News about how popular the series is, as well as the current state of the manga, including how far off the Wanokuni arc is from coming to a close.
Iwasaki, who is the 11th editor of One Piece, said that he feels “the story is advancing faster than we ever imagined.
I feel a strong sense that it’s drawing to a close, with more and more mysteries being uncovered every week.”
