Earning 20 mil a year and yet he's still working as hard as can be (sans the three week recent break for planning the time skip). That's just amazing. My straw hat is off to you, Oda.

No wonder he is dragging it out. Although after OP is over, I hope Oda doesn't think his next project will be as successful. But with OP's success who needs another manga project.

Lucky bum! How is it Akira Toriyama, Rumiko Takahashi, Yoichi Takahashi and Masashi Kishimoto are not that rich?

Anyone who actually has read more than a few chapters of One Piece knows this is well deserved.

no idea about takahashi, but everyone else on your list is DEFINITELY RICH. there was a news story about a year or so ago mentioning takahashi as one of the highest paid manga authors in japan..

To the man who created the awesomeness that is One Piece, I say he earned every penny (or whatever the Japanese equivalent is)

I agree. While I am not a hardcore OP fan, the whole manga is still very entertaining given the length of time that it has been out. I hope he uses some of that money to do something good lol.

He deserves it, he barely takes any breaks so it's money well earned. You can't really compare him when discussing how much money mangaka make since he's so popular.
