Eiichiro Oda, the author and illustrator behind One Piece, revealed he almost had second thoughts regarding the fate of Portgas D. Ace.In a 2012 interview recently translated in part by X (formerly Twitter) user @/sandman_AP, Oda opened up about the overwhelming reception toward Monkey D. Luffy’s brother. “When Ace first appeared, the reaction from my audience was tremendous,” Oda said. “So I was worried about whether or not I should kill Ace. I had planned to kill him just one year after his appearance, but it ended up taking 10 years.” Oda’s comments can be traced back to One Piece Magazine Vol.3.The loss of Ace was also an eye-opening moment for Luffy himself. Story-wise, it wasn’t that long ago when the Straw Hat captain was forcibly separated from his crew by Bartholomew Kuma in the “Sabaody Archipelago” arc. Failing to protect his friends and brother made Luffy realize he wasn’t strong enough to venture further into the New World. This led him to make the painful but necessary decision to have everyone train on their own and meet up again two years later.
