ONE PIECE STORY IS ABOUT 65% FINISHED!

According to an interview by “Dai One Piece Shimbun” to One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda, the storyline of the most popular manga of all time is finished at around 65 percent. Oda also stated that he can’t do any more long stories besides One Piece.

One Piece was first launched back in 1997 and it continues to be published in the Weekly Shonen Jump in Japan. It has been animated by Toei Animation as early as 1999, with the over 750 episodes to date.

Oda in recent years has managed to release about 40 chapters per year. If he continues to go at the same pace as now, it would take roughly 10 years to finish the series!
