User blog comment:Dezza/How many chapters will One Piece end with?/@comment-1595565-20100723202740

Kingluffy1 is right, I just bought vol. 52. At first I was thinking that there was a slight chance that it could be a translation error, and it meant that volume 52 would now start or something. It would be inconsistent with other volumes and the translators would have confirmed something that important. It looks like there will be about 1000 chapters.
