D: Oda-chi, konichiwankosoba (TN: wanko soba is a type of noodle dish. The reader is making a portmanteau with konichiwa). '''Recently, Oda-chi hasn't been able to start SBS by himself, and I'm not going to let him do it this time either!! SBS! Shall we begin? P.N. Tatsuumi'''

O: What should I do? Should I start? Not start? Hold on!!

'''D: Oda sensei. I've been thinking, "Just once I'd like to try to do the title call for my beloved question corner of this beloved manga!!" With that thought, I've been practicing really hard. Please listen. SBS!- Let's begi-buuuu!!! P.N. Matsumura D. Takuya * TN: A play on the Japanese idol, Kimura Takuya'''

O: You said that with your ass!! We're off to a smelly start...

'''D: This is a bit sudden, but please say "penis" ten times! Do it quickly! There's no time! P.N. Atsuuma'''

O: Penispenispenispenispenispenispenispenispenispenis.

'''D: Quiz time. Who's this? P.N. Atsuuma'''

O: Hmm? Who indeed... Is he a popular character? Well he's got a big nose, so is he someone who appeared in a novel by Akutagawa Ryunosuke*? ...The answer is...

Answer is Penismomizou

'''O: As if I'd know that!!! What the hell!!'''

'''D: Oda-sensei, hello!!! This is sudden, but what are you thinking now? P.N. Chiko'''

O: Ehh. I'm thinking erotic thought that have to do with the Japanese government.

'''D: Is it really true that this guy is now a Shichibukai, after the two-year time skip!? P.N. My info source is my big brother'''

O: You've been revived!!! It's been a while- NOT!! What, you've grown a bit of a beard and look a bit more like an adult!? Get out of here!!

'''D: Oda-senseeeei!! This is my first postcard to you. I'll be quick about it; here's my question. In the New World, Franky can change his hairstyle at will, but how many styles does he have? Please tell me. P.N. Ryuusei'''

O: An infinite amount!!! We'll have fun with this from here on out.

'''D: Oioioioioioi, good day to you. Usopp's got those "pop greens" and all, but what would he do if they ever ran out? P.N. Girls with short hair are the best <3'''

O: Right. I've been getting this question a lot, for a while now. I thought about showing the answer in the actual comics, but I haven't had that sort of chance. There's actually a scene concerning this in the screenplay of the movie, "Film Z", which comes out in December. Everyone was worried because what he shoots are seeds, right? But it's alright. At the back of Sunny-Go, Usopp made a flower bed called "Usopp's Garden" where he mass produces pop greens. There's a scene in the movie where he's spraying insecticide, so those of you who see it can confirm. I'd like to include something about it in the comic as well.

Chapter 670, Page 64
'''D: Yoss, Oda-chi! Are you drawing manga? The truth is, I've counted all the exclamation marks that appear in One Piece!! Amazing, huh? Including stuff like "!?" and the marks at the end of sounds like "DON!!!" as of chapter 636, there've been 150,096. In other words, an average of 236 per chapter... Amazing, huh, Oda-tsu <3 P.N. Pomepomu'''

O: ...!!... you really counted them all... "But why?"... is something I would ask if I were a thoughtless jerk! Yes! Exclamation points! Right, thank you!!!!!!!!!!

'''D: Please answer my super question in a super way. Oda-chi! I super-dont-understand the meaning of "FR-U" in Franky's new weapon, "Black Rhino FR-U IV". I super-want-to-know. By Match and Takeshi'''

O: Yes. "FR-U", is it? It's like this: "FR (Franky Shogun's)-U (ude [TN: ude means "arm"])". When the Black Rhino FR-U IV transforms, it becomes the arms for Franky Shogun.

'''D: Oda-sensei, hello. In regards to Sanji, I feel that he looks like Leonardo DiCaprio-san from the western movie, "Romeo and Juliet". My friends say I'm dead wrong. Is Sanji's appearance based on someone in particular?? P.N. Noel'''

O: People used to guess DiCaprio a lot, in the past. But the truth is that Sanji has a much more unusual model. I might not go as far as to say "model", but I hoped to have a bit of this person's vibes come through. It's Steve Buscemi, as he appeared in the movie "Reservoir Dogs". Cool, huh? Someone at Bandai was the only one to guess correctly, a while back.
