One Piece, the author Eiichiro Oda explains why he warned that it will end within 5 years

Everything in life is destined to end: believe it or not, even One Piece will end sooner or later. But have you ever wondered why the author Eiichiro Oda warned that it will end within five years?

The announcement dates back to several months ago, and is now official: if the publication continues at this pace, within five years One Piece will come to its conclusion, and the story of Luffy Cappello di Paglia will end. But why warn with so much notice? A fan asked Eiichiro Oda in a recent Q&A. The master's response is very interesting.

Eiichiro Oda said he warned the whole world because the question, for him, is very serious: he wants fans to prepare for what must happen. Oda has reconfirmed that the end of the manga will show a war of which the equal is not known, superior to any other clash shown to date on One Piece. Not only that, but the end of One Piece will be "hard" for its fans, many of whom grew up with the manga / anime. Therefore he wants them to mentally enter the order of ideas, to prepare themselves at the end of the journey.

What do you think of these statements? Are you ready at the end of One Piece, at the beginning of the last narrative arc? And above all ... do you really believe that the manga can end within five years, even considering that there is still a little bit left of the end of Wano's narrative arc?
