Цитата: In a recent interview about the Monsters 🟩Interviewer: About the anime adaptation, when you heard the offer "we want to make an anime adaptation of MONSTERS," what were your thoughts? 🟥Oda : I thought, "I guess it's okay to do it now." In fact, way back before this adaptation happened, more than 10 years ago, was it at Jump Festa or an Anime Tour? There had been an offer to animate MONSTERS. But I declined it at that time. I thought it wouldn't be fun to show the audience, who were looking forward to ONE PIECE, something I created when I was younger (LOL). Speaking from my personal experience, a long time ago, I went to Toriyama (Akira) sensei's anime tour, and I was very happy to see that one of Toriyama sensei's past one-shot stories had been adapted into an anime. At that time, I couldn't imagine the fans of ONE PIECE would be delighted in the same way with MONSTERS. And now this time, the anime adaptation talks have come once again. The Wano Country Arc is already completed, and the story connection with Thriller Bark has already been established, and I thought it was good as a ONE PIECE substory, so I agreed. I just gave my go-ahead, but I didn't really explain the connection to ONE PIECE with them, but then on the storyboard that they sent me, Zoro appeared at the end, and I thought, "Yeah, that's perfect."
