I don't get why people still keep saying stuff like "will it ever end?". If you'd pay attention, you can already see where the series is heading and approximately say, when it'll end. Mind you, even if you think about it, it still has a long way to go in general perspective. I give it 7 to at most 10 years.

One of the best manga ever is the best selling manga in history, for once, things are going right.


Seriously though, nothing might ever reach this series in print sales, since digital will slowly take over.

Well if we can trust the stuff from the past articles where they said that the story is aroudn 50% done then ye we can atleast expect another 15years befor it ends unless somethin changes that.

Last I checked, Oda said the series was two-thirds done (in some ANN article). I did the math back then, and concluded that the series would end around its 1,295th chapter. This means around 6-7 years till completion.

Oda is perfectionist. One Piece will end on 1200th chapter, in my opinion.

Oda said in a video interview about 6 months ago that the series was about 70% done.

Roughly 3 times the pop of Japan? Konata Izumi Would approve ("One to keep, One to Read, and One to spread the Gospel")

Hi amVickyDLuffy,

We are aware of the discrepancies between the different numbers, but all the numbers have come from official sources. However, we did edit the article to update it on the different numbers posted since 2013.
