Is the manga author left handed?

I just read through the manga again, and I noticed a lot of people were apparently left-handed; they had their weaons on their right sides. I was thinking that maybe the reason there are so many southpaws is that the author himself is one?

Or maybe you're thinking too much about it.

It is said that artistic people are left handed. This is not alll true, but it is widely so.

Plus, I'm left handed.

I'd say about 75% of artists I know are left handed.

I was saying earlier to someone that lefties can use tablets better then right handed people, as we're able to use the mouse in our right hand to use the user interface of Photoshop, while using our left to draw. It goes a lot faster then trying to use the pen for everything.

reasearch on the human brain showed that lefties are more creative (? debatable....but they had more neuron action in the part of the brain that controls creativity)

but it's also known statistically, lefties have a shorter life span than righties...

i wouldn't be surprised if oda sensei was a lefty.....OP can sometimes get so outrageous....

Yup research those show that lefties which uses the right brain to think are more creative while right handed ppl tend to think logically base on fact and stuff like that

After reading all your creative thinking and I am doing the non-creative thing by looking for a picture of Mr.Oda and I have determine that he is indeed "right-handed"

Look around for many pictures of him and it become too obvious...
