One Piece’s 1000th Chapter Celebrated With Global Popularity Poll

The moment for which we were all holding our breaths is finally here! Eiichiro Oda has published the 1000th chapter of One Piece!

Fans around the world have been waiting for this day, and now that the chapter is out, it demands a special celebration.

Very few mangas can achieve the 1000th chapter mark, but the fact that One Piece has achieved it without diluting the plot speaks miles about Eiichiro Oda’s determination.

One Piece’s 1000th chapter was released by Shueisha on 3rd January, and the manga truly deserves a hats-off! A worldwide popularity poll is being held to determine the most popular character of the series.

Popularity characters are very common and are held from time to time by the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. However, global popularity polls are quite a rare event. So, make sure that you don’t miss it!

The poll is now live and will be active until 28th February, 6:59 pm PST. The tallying of the result will then begin. If you want to see your favorite character on the World Top 100 list, then buckle up and cast your vote!

The fun doesn’t end here. Some lucky fans who will participate in the popularity poll will be gifted AR character models of One Piece characters. Also, did we tell you that a person gets only one vote per day while the poll lasts?

The New York Times is also promoting the campaign by publishing a full-color spread poster of One Piece. A lot of other events are also planned for celebrating the occasion.

The combined issues of #3, #4, and #5, #6 of Weekly Shonen Jump will contain cover illustrations that can be combined to make a full image.

The illustration shows Luffy surrounded by characters from other popular manga. Yuji (Jujutsu Kaisen), Asta (Black Clover), Senku (Dr. Stone), Deku (My Hero Academia) and many others are present.

The combined issues will also contain posters that can be put together to form the biggest poster in the history of Shonen Jump.

A live-action teaser and a new trailer that will summarize One Piece’s incredible journey will be revealed soon.

From posters to magazine collaborations and free online release of manga volumes, the list goes on, and the no fan will be left feeling empty.

About One Piece

One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997, and has been collected into 95 tankōbon volumes.

The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger.

The final words he said at the execution tower were,

“My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.”

Gol D. Roger

These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, searching for One Piece.

Thus, began a new age! Seeking to be the greatest pirate globally, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece.

His diverse crew is joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright. This will be one memorable adventure.
