Thank You Oda is a tribute created by fans, for fans — a space where the global One Piece community can come together to share personal messages for Eiichiro Oda, the creator of the story that brought us all aboard the same ship.
We, the crewmates behind this project, wanted to create something meaningful: a way for fans around the world to say thank you in their own language, from their own corner of the world.
But more than that, this project exists to shine a light on the countless personal stories, emotions, and memories that orbit around One Piece — moments of strength, joy, connection, and inspiration that deserve to be seen and heard.
Participation is entirely voluntary, and everyone is welcome. You can leave a message, read others, or simply explore the world map where each floating bottle represents a voice, a place, a feeling.
Each message is geolocated and placed on the map, building a living archive of what One Piece has meant to people across generations and continents.
And once the series comes to an end, all these messages will be gathered and delivered to Oda-sensei, as a heartfelt tribute from the world he helped bring together.
Because One Piece isn’t just a story — it’s a shared journey.
And this is our way of saying… thank you, Oda.
This project is completely free and non-profit —a collective love letter made by fans, for fans. If you’d like to support this initiative and help keep it afloat, you can do so in two ways: by purchasing my art on Redbubble or by making a donation via PayPal. Every little bit helps me keep caring for this little boat we’re sailing together.
