Detective Conan

The internet goes crazy when two legends interact, even in the most indirect and subtle way possible.

One Piece’s creator Eiichiro Oda took to Weekly Shonen Jump’s ‘Mangaka Musings’ column to congratulate Aoyama on Detective Conan’s 100th volume.

Oda wrote, “I’ve never met him (Aoyama), but he feels like a comrade in arms,” as translated by Viz Media’s blog.

He further mentioned how he understands the struggle of reaching 100 volumes of manga and praised him for achieving this feat.

Even though the franchises have been going on for years, they still keep their fans entertained without getting stale.

This may be just a simple congratulations from one mangaka to the other, but it doesn’t stop us from cooking up theories about a collaboration :).
