I heard for some popular manga series the magazine will tell the writer to keep writing even when he wants to stop and do a new story... that may be the case with One Piece, but I have no proof, just throwing out a possibility. One Piece is by far the King of Shonen Jump right now, so it is very possible for it to be true.

To speak of, laughing at scenes that were supposed to be dramatic will make you a masochist (Just try to not be mean myself, just saying).

Still need to see how exactly Oda managed to expend the thing.

The threat of contract termination perhaps. Being a mangaka is already a low paying job and they'll probably hard pressed to find another job if they can't publish their works. Slavery still exist largely in this day and age even in modern cities, only under different names and guises.

awww... Yu-Gi-Oh anime... why did it leave out the dark games from the manga? It could have been so awesome if they didn't go exclusively for the card game. The anime (without season 0) just does not make any kind of sense, because the characters (espacially Yugi) are not introduced properly. Watching Episode 1 feels like beginning a series at Episode 50.

Contracts and legalese can put you into the nastiest chokeholds. Just an idea, but seeing how this same magazine led Toriyama by his nose for years after he intended to end Dragonball, I am sure they have their ways, even if it's as simple as telling the mangaka that he won't want to end such a successful series until it's run good and dry in their eyes (which may not be the mag's fault depending on how you view it). |

Unlike most long running shounen, Oda actually cares about One Piece. He doesn't do it (or at least that's not his main concern) because of the cash cow it is. He's put a lot of imagination and effort into it. The dude works sleepless hours on this thing and doesn't seem the least bit bothered by it. From what I have read about him, he seems to really enjoy what he does, and One Piece is his legacy.

It's widely believed for example that Dragon Ball's mangaka wanted to end it at several points but Shonen Jump made him go on. Sidenote: not all magazines are like this,some let their authors have more freedom but I wouldn't say Shonen Jump is one of them.

Yu-Gi-Oh! will be perfect for anime you hate but every kids seem to like.
And I also agree with GreyZone about Yu-Gi-Oh! anime since I’m a fan of the manga: Quote:

I guess I’m not as lucky as you Genji. I’ve read the original manga before I watched the anime so I almost felt nothing but disdain for the animated adaptation. Almost. Thank god the seiyuus were doing a good job voicing the characters (especially Yami Yugi). The card battles (when it’s good) are exciting to watch, plus the decent and distinguished score made the anime kinda entertaining when you watch it one episode a week.
