CATDOLL: Will the One Piece manga be serialized monthly? Official rumor denies: No such thing

The "One Piece" manga was suspended again this week, sparking discussions among many Japanese fans. Some of them spread rumors online, saying that "One Piece" will be "serialized once a month". In response, Shueisha officially refuted the rumor, saying that the idea of ​​updating once a month is pure fabrication.

According to information released by Japanese media, One Piece will be on hiatus for one issue in Shonen Jump, which will be released on July 11, and the latest manga chapter 832 will continue to be serialized in the 33rd issue of the magazine. The announcement of the hiatus disappointed many people, and the increasing number of One Piece hiatuses in recent years, with an average frequency of once a month this year alone, made fans even more worried.


The latest movie of One Piece: GOLD

Of course, the reason why Oda took a break is also closely related to the upcoming release of the latest One Piece movie, GOLD, on July 23. As a supervisor, Oda has to take care of the movie version on the one hand, and update the comics regularly on the other hand, which really makes him exhausted. At the same time, the TV animation of One Piece has also entered the original chapter recently. Toei did this on the one hand to make the TV animation fit the plot of the movie (such as Mr. Tanaka who appeared on Silver Mine Island), and on the other hand to open up the progress with the original comics, so that Oda has enough breathing space.


Japanese netizens discuss the "monthly serialization" of "One Piece"

Seeing how busy Oda is, many fans can't help but worry, "Will One Piece eventually be serialized with one episode per month?" This speculation quickly went viral on major Japanese forums and Twitter. Netizens who did not know the truth believed the news and wrote to the official Shueisha to inquire about the details.


Japanese media: Shueisha's publicity department denies rumors of "serialization once a month"

After receiving many inquiries from netizens, the staff of Shueisha's publicity department made an official refutation, saying that "the rumor of serializing once a month is not true", so that the worried fans can temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. However, some netizens believe that even if Oda really makes the move of "updating once a month", it is also reasonable - "Compared to someone, Oda's work is already very dedicated", "It is said that Oda only sleeps three hours a day, which is really too tiring", "Health is still the most important thing."

So what do you think about Oda's regular breaks?
