A resurfaced interview from One Piece’s Eiichiro Oda reveals the author’s obsession with ranking and seniority, potentially explaining why he wants to win awards such as Emmys and Oscars so badly.Translated by X (formerly Twitter) user Sandman, Oda and One Outs author Shinobu Kaitani shared their differing views on rank and seniority within the manga industry in a recently resurfaced 2009 interview. While Kaitani said he was happy that all professionals are deemed ‘just’ mangaka, Oda said he disliked that system, wanting his rank to be commensurate with his efforts. “I want to be ranked,” he said. “I want a title to rank me. I wonder why I have the same title of ‘mangaka’ as other people when I work so hard. When you are a member of society, you have a title like ‘section chief’ or ‘general manager’ on your business card. It looks like a sign of ‘I worked so hard.’ But as a mangaka, no matter how hard you work, you are still a mangaka. It’s a little bit demoralizing.”While the One Piece live-action isn’t up for any major awards, Zoro’s actor Mackenyu was honored with the Global Groundbreaker for One Asia award for his impact. Fans can soon see Mackenyu perform again in Disney+’s live-action anime hybrid Dragons of Wonderhatch. In many ways, the One Piece live-action is similar to the manga, shattering records without many formal awards to show for it, especially in the manga’s recent years. The Netflix series went #1 in over 84 countries, eclipsing the previous record held by worldwide smash-hits Wednesday and Stranger Things, which peaked at 83 countries. One Piece also topped Netflix’s global top 10 for three consecutive weeks, amassing over 476 million hours before falling out of the list — a stunning three months after its debut.
