One Piece Creator Gives Fans Full Look at Wild Home

Eiichiro Oda has spent decades telling the story of One Piece in the pages of the Shonen’s manga. Oda’s days of hard work are nearing their end however as the franchise is in the throes of its Final Arc, and to help celebrate, a new home tour shows fans of the Grand Line how the artist is living. Fans might be surprised to see that certain aspects of Oda’s abode are just as colorful and outrageous as some parts of the world of the Straw Hat Pirates.  

The story of One Piece first began in 1997, introducing the Shonen franchise that would become one of the biggest properties to arrive thanks to Weekly Shonen Jump. While many fans will be sad to see the long-running series come to an end, Oda himself has certainly earned his retirement, with the artist’s work schedule being a legendary one even in terms of traditional manga artists’ schedules. In preparing for the Final Arc of the series following the conclusion of the War for Wano Arc, Oda took a month off to prepare for the final journey of the Straw Hats, with the creator of One Piece hinting that he was aiming for three more years of manga chapters to arrive.

Twitter Outlets not only took the opportunity to venture into the house of One Piece’s creator via a new video but also detailed some of the wildest objects that are a part of Eiichiro Oda’s homestead, including the likes of full-sized stuffed animals and a re-creation of legendary martial artist Bruce Lee:

Oda hasn’t just been busy with the manga, as the One Piece creator has also been a part in the creation of not just the fifteenth film, but also the upcoming live-action adaptation that is scheduled to arrive on Netflix. Working as an executive producer on the first series bringing the world of the Grand Line to live-action, Oda definitely has his work cut out for him as fans continue to speculate whether Netflix’s television show will live up to the high standards of the anime franchise.
