Guests Ride Mini Train at One Piece Creator's Swank BBQ
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
One Piece creator Eiichirō Oda is one of the richest people in the manga business, earning millions in royalties each year from his smash-hit franchise. Maintaining that kind of popularity is no easy gig. Oda reportedly sleeps only three hours a night and expects similar determination from his editors. No one can fault him for cutting loose on occasion, and when Oda parties, he goes big.
Partygoers shared images from a Takoyaki party at Oda's home earlier this week on Twitter, revealing that not only does the man possess a huge barbecue grill, but there's also a miniature train ride inside his house. Singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu shared this image of the cake.

More pictures from the party where shared on voice actress and voice of Luffy Mayumi Tanaka's blog. Kotono Mitsuishi (Boa Hancock), Yuuichi Nagashima (Brook), Katsuhisa Hōki (Jimbe), Kappei Yamaguchi (Usopp), Akemi Okamura (Nami), and singer Yūsuke Kamiji were just a few of the attendees. The blog notes that Kappei is definitely drunk.

Oda's house is definitely huge, and by the looks of it, the guy throws the best parties.
