One Piece Creator Eiichiro Oda Officially Confirms Sudden Break

One Piece is a legendary shonen manga that has been in consistent serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump since 1997. Over almost 3 decades of weekly releases, Eiichiro Oda has had to put in long hours of work with little time to rest. Consequently, he now has to take breaks often to recover his energy and plan things right. However, even though Oda often takes breaks, he usually returns with a 3-chapter run immediately after. June, however, has proven to be difficult.
