One Piece Manga Takes a 1-Week Hiatus

The official X (formerly Twitter) account for author Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece staff confirmed that the manga is taking a 1-week hiatus from Weekly Shonen Jump due to health issues that Oda is currently facing. Originally planned to release in 2025’s 45th issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, One Piece manga chapter 1162 will now release in the 46th issue on October 14 in Japan. 

The One Piece manga has been serialized since July 1997, and its legendary run in Weekly Shonen Jump needs no further introduction. Currently, fans can read the One Piece manga weekly on VIZ Media and Manga Plus in English. One Piece manga chapter 1162 is set to release digitally on October 12.

The One Piece anime is airing on an evening timeslot, with new episodes premiering at 11:15 p.m. JST on Saturdays on Fuji TV and affiliate channels. Crunchyroll is streaming the long-running anime series in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Latin America.

This past August, the ONE PIECE DAY ’25 event brought major announcements, including an anime adaptation of Jun Esaka and Sayaka Suwa’s One Piece: Heroines light novel series. A new visual for the One Piece: Heroines anime series was also revealed on stage. One Piece: Heroines was serialized in issues of One Piece Magazine in 2019. Shueisha publishes the novel series in Japan, and VIZ Media publishes the series in English outside Japan.

In addition, a new “First Look” trailer for One Piece Season 2 was released by Netflix, and a third season of the live-action series is in the works. One Piece Season 2 will premieres in 2026 on Netflix. The season includes the debut of Mikaela Hoover as Straw Hat pirate Tony Tony Chopper. One Piece Season 3 is also being planned on Netflix.
