One Piece Manga Sets Guinness World Record With Over 500 Million Published

Shueisha announced on Thursday that Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga has surpassed 500 million copies published worldwide as of the release of the manga's 103rd compiled book volume on the same day.

416,566,000 of those copies are in Japan, and 100 million copies are in 60 countries and territories outside of Japan. (In the past, Shueisha has used the Japanese term for "published" in reporting its manga statistics, but clarified that these figures include both print and digital copies.)
