Eiichiro oda
By the time Oda-sensei was 17 years old he had intended to make his own manga, and finally in 1992 he won the Silver Honors (Junn-Nyuusen) in the 44th tezuka awards with his work entitled WANTED. A little description about wanted, this manga tells about Westren or better known as COWBOY.
There is an interesting story in the process of making wanted, which is 3 days before the submission deadline, Oda-Sensei had a car accident! The ridiculous thing was that on the way to the hospital, the first thing that occurred to him was that that day he had to return the video cassette he had borrowed. The doctor decided that Oda-sensei must be hospitalized for 1 day. And while in the hospital that he fought desperately to complete Wanted !.
During 1993-1994 Oda-sensei made several other works such as God’s gift for the future (1993), Ikki Yako (1994), and Monster (1994). At the end of 1996 when he was still working at Watsuki, he made two One-shots namely Romance Dawn Versions 1 & 2, which will be the first chapter for One Piece. And in 1997 he stopped working at Nobuhiro Watsuki and decided to focus on working on the One Piece manga (1997-Present).
However, Oda-sensei made many changes, such as changing Boogie to Buggy, changing Zoro from being a Buggy follower to becoming a wandering swordsman, and changing Morgan's appearance (he was originally supposed to look like Sumo but Oda's editor wanted him to change it, which he eventually did. ). Then Nobuhiro Watsuki will pay tribute to Oda by drawing the Straw Hat Pirate jolly roger (flag) in a chapter from Rurouni Kenshin as a picture on the 'bomb' used by Gein, one of Yukishiro Enishi's subordinates.
According to his assistants, Oda-sensei has a bad habit, which is that he likes to stick out his tongue while concentrating. On the other hand, when asked about the conditions for being his assistant, Oda-sensei casually replied "Big Luck".
When asked to mention a word that represented him, Oda-sensei chose the word Wonderfull.And in the next 30 years, what does he want to become? "Something awesome". Something amazing is the most appropriate word to represent this mangaka.
