Did you know Sanji from One-piece, his name was Naruto ?

Hi

Here is the interesting fact. Sanji from One-piece, his name was Naruto in initial configuration of One-piece.

Probably, You guys know about “ROMANCE DAWN“. That is from the Oda’s prime comic book known as ”The Wanted”.

WANTED！ 尾田栄一郎短編集(1巻完結)

Why Oda-sensei needed to change Sanji’s name ?

Simply, because Naruto was going to come out soon. By the way, Oda is author of one-piece.

All the fans think he is a god hahaha. I think so too.

One-piece	1997-Now
Naruto	1999-2014

You will be thinking like why Ota couldn’t use the name before Naruto came out. Because Sanji came since 1998, October 7th. Even though Naruto started from 1999. Kishimoto, Author of Naruto had an idea and Shueisha(集英社）needs to manage the comic books.
