Eiichiro Oda, Mangaka of One Piece received around 100 text messages to his mobile phone from September 2007 to December all with the message "Die. Die".
The culprit was apparently a previous assistant drawer's wife who held a grudge for her husband getting fired.
She was arrested on the 7th of this month.

Yahoo News JapanMy opinion:
I kinda understand how she could be a bit upset. I mean, I'm sure she bragged to her friends about how her husband was working on the greatest manga in Jump but... To then go and send death threats? >.> She's now my own personal enemy >.>...
I hope that lady keeps away from eiichiro forever!!
Eichio is awesome
I would sue her >.>
That's around the start/middle of Thriller park arc.... I guess it fit the mood.....
Imagine... for more than a whole year you get messages like this... o.O That must've been hard on Oda-sensei :S
Good thing everything has been settled.
And yeah, I understand she was upset, but I think there's a line we won't step over and she just did it. She needs to get a life as someone before me commented. (Well, I guess... after getting out of prison...)
Oda is like a mafia Don, unless you wants countless acts of retribution he is to remain untouched.
I hope that there aren't some more crazy people in japan who want him to die=/
now millions of fans hate her :P
Anyways - Oda is a god for me and gods are immortal, so she can keep dreaming! ;p
About Oda, he can always change his cell phone number, if he ever receive sms like that.
Nothing more, nothing less
Personaly I feel sad for the woman, even more for her family to go through all the shame and embarrassment, after her husband's firing to now all this media attention they're going to get.
Nah, just truth.
Poor Oda-sensei >____< Must have been a terrible straing on him and family ><
From which chapter is that color-spread? And yeah... One Piece is the greatest manga in Jump.
