Manga announces one month break
Whilst the entire One Piece community is looking forward to Odyssey’s release later this year, many of us are still reeling from the recent news that the manga series will be shortly taking a one-month-long break.
Announced earlier this week, Eiichiro Oda confirmed to fans via social media that the manga would be taking a four-issue break from the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine so that he can reorganise the final story arc.
Oda will also take this opportunity to visit the South African production set of Netflix’s upcoming live-action adaptation. The author hasn’t been able to supervise filming because of the pandemic, so the chance to see how the series is coming together will surely only be a good thing for fans of One Piece.
