Yes, One Piece manga was currently on hiatus. The reason was that the author, Oda, had fallen ill and would take an emergency two-week break. The next chapter was expected to be released on December 2, 2024, in the first issue of the new year.
The One Piece animation stopped airing from October 2024 to April 2025.
One Piece stopped at 1132 because the author, Oda Eichiro, was in poor health. Oda had previously gone to South Africa to participate in the live-action TV series of One Piece. South Africa was prone to contracting viruses and had a high chance of getting the flu. He might have flu symptoms after returning to Japan. Due to his sudden physical condition, he had to take an emergency two-week break. It was expected that the next issue (the first issue of the new year, which was released on December 2nd, 2024) would continue to be published. However, the process of confirming the news was rather complicated. Previously, an intelligence officer had announced a two-week break, but in the middle of the process, the official website had changed the news to a two-week break. In the end, the official JUMP announcement was released, and it was officially confirmed that Oda's health was the reason for the two-week break.
Starting from October 27, 2024, One Piece would stop broadcasting until April 2025. Therefore, January 3, 2025 would be a period of pause.
The main reason for One Piece's animation stopping was to improve the quality of production. Firstly, the manga author, Oda Eichiro, had been creating intensely for a long time. His physical and mental stress was huge, which might affect his subsequent creations. There might also be situations such as fund allocation and changes in the production team that might affect the production progress. Secondly, the officials realized that there were problems with the quality of the animation and that the plot needed to be adjusted. For example, the original 50-plus episodes of Fishmen Island would be compressed to 20-plus episodes. Moreover, the number of views for the chapters after the Kazuki Nation had plummeted, which was also one of the factors that prompted the officials to stop updating. In addition, factors such as copyright negotiations and changes in market demand may also cause the producers to adjust their production plans. During the hiatus, the officials would improve the quality of the animation and plan to release more information during the Jump2025 event in December.
The main reasons for One Piece's animation stopping were as follows: - As for the creator, the manga author, Oda Eichiro, had been working hard for a long time. He was under great physical and mental pressure. In order to ensure the quality of his work and his own health, he needed to rest and recuperate. As the plot progressed, the story structure became more and more complicated. Building a huge and logically rigorous pirate world required more time and energy to polish the plot. - Production: Animation production required a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. It was possible that the allocation of funds and changes in the production team would affect the production progress. - Quality improvement requirements: The animation team realized that there were problems with the animation's quality and plot. For example, the content of the Fishmen Island chapter was of low quality. It needed to be rectified, including quality problems and plot adjustments. At the same time, the viewership of the chapter after the Kazuki Nation plummeted, and the producers hoped to improve the quality of the animation by stopping the update. - Market and copyright factors: copyright negotiations, changes in market demand, etc. may cause the producer to adjust the production plan.
There were many reasons for One Piece to stop updating. As for the animation, the official announcement was that it would stop broadcasting from October 27th until April 2025. The main reason was to further improve the quality of the production. The production team would improve the quality of the animation, and during this period, the " Fishmen Island chapter " would be replayed. This could also be a chance for the production team to catch their breath. As the plot approached the end, the audience's demand for the animation and manga to be synchronized increased. The production team needed more time to avoid the pressure of public opinion to ensure that the final plot presented high-quality animation content. As for the manga, there was news that the author, Oda Eichiro's physical condition in recent years might be a related factor, and the manga also had an emergency suspension, such as the recent two-week suspension due to unknown reasons, but the specific reasons were not clear. In addition, the allocation of funds, changes in the production team, market and copyright factors, etc. might also affect the update of One Piece.
There were many reasons for One Piece to stop updating, and the epidemic was only one of the external factors that could affect it. In addition, there was a dispute between the copyright owner and the broadcasting platform.(If the copyright party wants to increase the license fee, the broadcasting platform will find it difficult to bear, and the negotiation fails to reach a compromise, the copyright party will suspend the update and put pressure on it), production adjustment requirements (The production team is under great pressure. They have to ensure quality and improve efficiency. It takes more time and resources to try new methods and forms. In order to improve the quality of the animation, the animation team plans to redo the lighting and painting content of the special edited version of the Fishmen Island chapter), external environmental pressure, and internal production needs.(For example, the reasonable division of the plot, the physical and mental stress brought by the production team's long-term high-intensity creation, the allocation of funds, the change of the production team affecting the production progress, the change of market demand, the negotiation of copyright, etc., would cause the producer to adjust the production plan) were also the reasons for the suspension of the update.
