One Piece fans have to expect breaks of several weeks in the popular Shonen manga this month and again at the beginning of next year. According to two very well-known and trusted leakers in the One Piece community, there will be several irregularities with the manga until mid-January.
Here you can find out the exact date of the individual leaked breaks and when you can expect the next chapters.
One Piece manga is taking several breaks until mid-January
One Piece fan, leaker and X user@pewpiecehas already revealed that after Chapter 1133, which will appear on December 8, 2024, Oda will first take a personal break. Since we are approaching the holidays in December and January, there will probably be some interruptions at the publishing house of the One Piece manga Shonen Jump, like every year.
In keeping with this, another One Piece fan on X (formerly Twitter)@newworldarturthe next breaks listed in the coming weeks. At @newworldartur, however, the days of the individual releases are shifted by one day due to the different time zones, which is why we have adapted it for you to the German time zone in the overview below.
Here you can get an overview of the release of the next chapters in December and January:
- December 8, 2024:Chapter 1133 release
- December 15, 2024:Personal break from Oda
- 22: December 2024:Chapter 1134 release
- December 29, 2024:Shonen Jump magazine pause
- 05 January 2025:Chapter 1135 release
- 12 January 2025:Shonen Jump magazine pause
How reliable is this information?Pewpiece and NewWorldArtur have always been reliable sources and have correctly predicted and leaked the manga breaks in the past. However, it is still possible that there can still be leaks about the chapters despite the holidays.
So a preview of the new chapters of One Piece could appear before the dates mentioned above, as only the magazine is taking a break, but Eiichiro Oda may even be preparing. However, there is a chance that nothing will happen on those days and that the mangaka will take these holidays as a well-deserved break.
What could this mean for the weekly rhythm of the One Piece manga in 2025?
If fans are correct, the One Piece manga appears to only receive a new chapter every two weeks until mid-January.
With the start of the new year, Shonen Jump could change the weekly rhythm of the One Piece manga to a bi-weekly publication rhythm due to the many breaks. After all, Eiichiro Oda had many unplanned breaks this year for health reasons.
Fans of the series are not opposed to this idea. Under the post, the community is by no means negative about the possible change in the publication rhythm and would even prefer it if the mangaka took more time for his health. Even if that would mean that fans would only get a new chapter every two weeks.
However, it is not yet officially known whether Shonen Jump or Eiichiro Oda will change the publication pattern of the new manga chapters of One Piece in 2025. According to current information, it could be that there will be weekly chapters again after the speculated breaks until mid-January. If this changes in the future, we will keep you updated.
What is your opinion on weekly releases of manga chapters and such breaks?
