The One Piece: Red movie has today shared a new teaser trailer, visual and the first episode from the Uta Diaries spin-off show.
It’s certainly been a hectic week for fans of One Piece; which started as usual with the release of both a new anime episode and manga chapter on the weekend.
However, the fandom spiralled after news of an extensive one month break to the manga was announced, even more so because of the fact that the hiatus is to prepare for the final ever story arc.
However, today has brought some well-deserved reveals for the One Piece community, including a new trailer for the upcoming Red movie, as well as a special look at the Uta Diaries show.

Manga series to take one month break
Whilst fans of the One Piece anime are celebrating the new trailer, visual and short spin-off series, many are still contemplating the news that the manga will shortly take a one-month hiatus.
This week, author Eiichiro Oda confirmed that the series will be on a break from Issue #30 (June 27th) of the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine until Issue #34 (July 25th).
The reason for the break is to allow Oda and his team the time required to properly plan out the series’ final ever story arc. However, the break will also give him a chance to visit and supervise the production set for Netflix’s upcoming live-action adaptation, which is currently filming in South Africa.
“What?! Taking a break?! How much do you think readers enjoy Jump…But Resting!! And I want to go to Africa tooooo!! I also want to reorganise the final arc of the series so I can finish it as soon as possible. So…I’m sorry, but I’m going to take a breather and some time to prepare!!” – Eiichiro Oda, via WSJ_manga Twitter.
