One Piece Manga Hiatus: Eiichiro Oda’s Health Scare!
One Piece by Eichiro Oda is probably considered as the Greatest Manga of all time, the tales of Luffy and his Friends on a Quest has moved people around the Globe. But behind such a beautiful story lies Two Decades of Spine Breaking Hard Work by the Author, with age this hurdle was bound to appear!
Eiichiro Oda has clearly stated that he is very much okay with dying if he’s doing what he loves, but we need Oda to live because he is an important figure in the world of storytellers. Imagine the author faces an unfortunate death, which is nothing new in the manga industry.
Only ODA knows about the truth of ‘One Piece’, that’s why he needs to live a healthy life.
The One Piece fans are worried about Oda’s health, let’s get into more information on what’s happening with the author and when One Piece Chapter 1162 release.
What happened to Eichiro Oda?
A reliable source of One on X/Twitter @sandman_AP stated that Eiichiro Oda fell sick because of his love for ‘Raw Horse Meat!’ Yes, his hometown Kumamoto has plenty of restaurants that serve Raw Horse Meat! Oda has contracted Food Poisoning from eating the uncooked meat, it is known that the poisoning from raw horse meat is a serious issue. This means the One Piece Chapter 1162 will take time to arrive.
Eiichiro Oda hasn’t really been a person who takes care of his health despite sitting in one place and drawing for hours. Oda has bad health habits that have given him conditions like Diabetes, High Blood Pressure and Severe Back Pain. The Doctor has also advised him to walk and eat healthy, otherwise he is destined to pass away due to his schedule.

We read from a reliable source of Oda that he likes eating cheap food like meat on rice more than anything else. Oda adding corned beef to his every meal concerned his family and friends , that’s very much Luffy Like from Oda! Look at this last comment he made before falling sick…Surprise, It was about burgers!
Oda has been working like a horse for the last 24 years, his gears were bound to catch up to him. So he needs to go on a Hiatus, Fix his Health and then Return with the Story. Shonen Jump needs to treat their Greatest Living Mangaka with some respect and care, it would be terrible if anything unfortunate happens to him.
Have you ever wondered about the result if New Gen went against the First Generation of Pirates. Check out our video on What would happen if New Gen Pirates and Old Gen Pirates Fought| One Piece.
The Dark side of Manga Industry
Check this video about Author Reiji Miyajima (Rent-a-Girlfriend), to get an idea about the Weekly Manga Struggles!
The Japanese Manga might look dreamy and fiesty but the industry is really dark. The mangakas are under insane pressure to deliver their weekly manga, the fear of being axed drives them insane and they work tirelessly day and night. During such times the author adapts to this toxic lifestyle and ignores healthy habits, they forget to drink, eat and sleep on time.
Many Mangakas have died due to heavy pressure of the Manga Industry, the weekly schedule is sometimes too much for the authors. Hunter X Hunter’s author Yoshihiro Togashi is someone who suffers from severe back issues due to drawing manga for years! The HXH Manga has been on a hiatus, even Kentaro Miura suffered health issues due to Berserk which caused his untimely death.
Hinako Ashihara, the creator of Sand Chronicles and Sexy Tanaka San commited Suicide last year due to pressure. The Big Manga Companies need to end this horrible schedule for mangakas, the monthly manga is more of a perfect deal for both parties.
When will One Piece Chapter 1162 Release?
Weekly Shonen Jump announced on October 2nd that One Piece Manga will take a small break, we can hear the weebs already sighing. The God Valley Flashback will continue when the manga resumes, the Editorial Team of Shonen Jump Apologised to the fans in the official Statement.

The Break will last only a week and the One Piece Chapter 1162 will release on October 13. We wish Law and Chopper could team up and Heal our Oda Sensei!
Till then pray that Sensei recovers well and returns to the world of Pirates.
