Λοιπον δημιουργηθηκε ενας λογαριασμος στο Twitter απο προσωπικο που εργαζεται μαζι με τον Oda. Τωρα επειδη δεν ξερω Ιαπωνικα και γενικα το φοβαμαι το google translate δεν μπορω να πω επιπλεον πληροφοριες για το τι παιζει. Το μονο που ξερουμε ειναι οτι την Πρωτοχρονια θα μας "τιτιβισουν" κατι σημαντικο. Tα τιτιβισματα aka tweets μπορει να ειναι και απο τον Oda αλλα μαλλον οι editors του θα κανουν τα περισσοτερα. Anyway τα tweets μπορει να ειναι σχετικα με:
- pics of Oda's studio - pics of Oda's original drawing and rough draft - Oda's comment - secret info about OP manga

"Happy New Year, everyone!
I'm Eiichiro Oda, the author of ONE PIECE.
My editors declared that they will make efforts on Twitter. They frequently asks me to have a greeting toward readers on Twitter.
I don't wanna see editors' sad faces (LIE), so I'd like to post my first tweet. Let's have a nice new year.
ONE PIECE has entered 20th anniversary this year, everyone!! I'll do my best.
I wanted to make this post my greetings, but editors scolded me that the tweet must be within 140 characters. I don't care about it! Be sure to follow us."
After Oda's New Year message, editor Isaka and Sugita said on Twitter:
"In this way, Oda-sensei might post tweets in the future. We'd like to share with you OP special announcements and secret info which has never been revealed for these 20 years' serialization.
We hope OP fans all over the world will enjoy our tweets!"

Oda's interview got released in TV show in July last year. Now full version (40 minutes) is available in Film Gold Golden Limited Edition. My copy arrived a few days ago, so here is my summary of his important quotes. A few quotes might be duplicates of my previous summary in July.
********************* - When I was a kid, I used to love the anime titled "Vicke Viking", especially the scene in which the protagonist declares, "I'll go on a voyage with my dad tomorrow!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicke_Viking
- I decided to make OP serialization come true when I was in junior high school.
- I thought I can finish OP within 5 years. Whenever I come up with new characters, I can't help making them appear in manga. I feel all of them have their own lives and thus the serialization has become long. I keep in mind that I should put my new interesting ideas into manga when I come up with them. Otherwise, it would be impolite to my audience.
- My view on value has been changing. It can influence my manga, but the final scene won't change.
- I'm not sure why so many people love ONE PIECE. I think I have been just lucky. Not only my manga but also OP anime have been contributing to it. Especially, "Strong World" had an unexpected strong impact in terms of popularity.
- I want to watch films every week if possible. I love black-and-white Jidaigeki and foreign films. I watch recent popular films as well, but I rarely go to theaters unless the films are super-popular since I'm busy. The last time I went to a theater was when "Star Wars" got released. I thought I must go to a theater.
- Just because I can't come up with a suitable name for a character, I sometimes spend 1.5 days on drawing rough drafts.
- I have my assistants come to my studio early so that I can work harder and harder. Diversion is an excuse for laziness.
- Whenever I submit ONE PIECE chapters, I'm always confident that the chapters are interesting.
- Oda has been writing notebooks which contain his ideas about OP. The pacing is about 3 weeks per one notebook.
- I'm not interested in romance mangas, but it doesn't mean I hate them.
- I keep in mind about poetic justice (rewarding good and punishing evil) when wrapping up stories. Empathizing enemies would not make audience feel fine after reading stories. Those mangas would be for adults. I don't write complicated stories. I just want my audience to feel fine after reading ONE PIECE when they have bad days in real life.
- ONE PIECE is a story which myself as a kid can be satisfied. There is a story I hate, but I don't mention the title since it is so popular around the world. I hate it because it entertained me a lot but disappointed me in the end. ONE PIECE is a story which everyone will feel fulfilled in the end.

According to today's editor's tweet, recent TV news has reported that the number of Doflamingo-styled girls in Japan is increasing, which even surprises Oda.
Editor also says that Doflamingo is still so influential even after his defeat that many cool girls in Japan are fascinated by his taste in fashion.
The caption says, "When I walk on a street, people sometimes shout at me, 'Oh, Doflamingo!!
According to the official website, Oda is glad that editor Sugita gave him a 360°camera as his birthday present.
Sugita has been giving him birthday presents every year, but Oda was displeased when Sugita gave him a knitted scarf. It is because knitted scarf is often given to boyfriend from a girl as his birthday present in Japan.

Here is my summary for ONE PIECE official tweet which was posted 25 minutes ago.
Oda drew Sanji's autograph to celebrate 3 years' anniversary for ONE PIECE treasure Cruise (smartphone app). He decided to draw Sanji because "San" means 3 in Japanese.
According to the editor, Oda is glad that he has the luck to acquire Gear 4 Luffy in the app.
