It's hard to believe that Eiichiro Oda was inspired by Dragon Ball to become a cartoonist. A priori One Piece does not have many things in common with Toriyama's work and that is its great success. The series has kept its fans intrigued since its inception. What is One Piece? What is the World Government hiding and what happened in the Empty Century? All these questions have their own fan theories and every time we are closer to discovering the truth
At this time, that milestone has the Harry Potter saga of JK Rowling with 500 million in total. But that could change in the coming months. For the 13th consecutive year, One Piece became the best-selling manga and is already competing on almost equal footing with the DC Comics series Batman which has sold 474 million numbers (data from March 2019). However, in One Piece volume 96 it has been revealed that they have surpassed 470 million copies sold, so it will happen shortly to Batman and could take over Harry Potter as the best-selling book collection in history
Will it achieve in 2020 this historical record for manga? Until then One Piece will continue to develop the very interesting Wano arc, in addition to holding its first orchestral concert to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the professional career of composer Kohei Tanaka, responsible for the music of the anime.
