This cover goes hand in hand with VOL 77 cover of the Doflamingo Family.

Their companion pieces meant to be seen together, similar to the covers during Alabasta of the Strawhats and Baroque works staring down across two covers.

Goes to show who is fighting who. Glad to see Shueisha is keeping up with this, that should just add to the world record now.

One Piece's various manga print circulation figures might not be as big as a big question: At what point will Luffy become the Pirate King and thus end the manga?

The volume after this should be the last one for the Dressrosa saga. I wonder if it'll have Corazon in the cover, at last. ^^

This is something us fans could care less about, because we do not want to see one piece ends, not when its going strong and strong and strong, sure you can find the usual bad apples that complain about the smallest things in some forums, about the pace, a fight, luffy´s latest power up, but what can please 100% anyone? nothing exist that does, maybe only money.., we do not need and ending in sight within the next 10 years or more. That is why fans keep it as THE KING and with sales figures better than ever, and this is one such rare case in which the insale sales, records, popularity actually equals the quality of the work. And this is one aspect that creates sometimes jealousy between rival work´s fandoms. (i.e. the usual bleach vs one piece, naruto vs one piece, fairy tails vs one piece, etc)

Yeah, I get the gist of that. For me though, it just looks cluttered a bit. Maybe they could have put the bottom strip on the back of the book? idk

That is true, but having a proper ending is important--even fundamental for a story to be really considered a masterpiece once completed.

That said, One Piece is clearly moving towards said ending, and even if I feel that there is still much to show about this awesome universe created by Oda, he also clearly knows where he's going, so I'm not worried for the ending at all and I'm enjoying the ride. Smile
