One Piece mangaka Eiichiro Oda hospitalisation with a tonsil infection has caused the cancellation of at least two One Piece instalments, alarming many fans yet again.

According to Shonen Jump’s editorial announcement, volume 26 and 27 of Weekly Jump will be missing One Piece due to his hospitalisation.

Jump also clarified that he is suffering from a peritonsillar abscess, not simple tonsillitis as their print announcement stated.

Amongst Shonen Jump readers, in addition to worry for “workaholic” Oda himself, there has been the usual concern at both the fate of One Piece and the reliance of the magazine on its colossal success – and the effect any extended One Piece hiatus could have on the magazine.

    No, fuck you!

    It's not like you are paying money for your pirated manga downloads
    All you have to do is not read it
    Penis envy of others enjoying great drawing and story telling while whatever crap you like probably ripped off One Piece somewhere along the way

    These retards just hating for their immature reasons

    Oda probably needs to take a few more weeks off to enjoy life for once. Jump will not die from a few chapters short.

    Fortunately it's not cancer and incurable.

    Although he will require surgery if he wants it gone.

    Let Oda take a rest before you overwork him to death, Shounen Jump!

    If he buys it because you force him straight back to work after surgery, his blood will be on YOUR fucking hands!

    Better yet, why not make One Piece a MONTHLY release? The artwork and wall-of-text storytelling justifies more time and care to be put into it anyway.

    That way Oda can have more time to polish instead of running out of steam and life on the THREE hours of sleep a day you give him.

    Let Oda rest, Shounen Jump. If he dies, the blood will be on YOUR hands.

    The worry is if Oda dies Shounen Jump dies so blood on their hands is the least of their worries.

    if One Piece becomes a monthly release, the ending will happen around 2065, produced by Neo-Oda v1.5

    Berserk gets four chapters a year. It allows for great art but snail pacing. With such a large gap I find myself wanting less action and more plot. It's still plenty good, but man is it frustrating. I can see it lasting for about as long a OP lol with it's current release schedule.

    Don't really want to see OP go down that path, so a bi-weekly thing might be good.

    So like Berserk I'd still follow after years of serialization as long as it manages to entertain.

    The author of Berserk hates relying on assistants, that's why he takes such a long time to release a chapter.

    At least One Piece has yet to reach the levels of HiatusXHiatus in cancellation of releases.

    Miura does have assistants though, as opposed to say Togashi. He takes a long time primarily because of serialization, again opposed to say someone like Togashi.

    Berserk is on semi-hiatus because the author is reportedly burned out and trying to keep his sanity alive with gaming and family matters. He used to be the same work horse like Oda is and that will eventually tear every person down.

    how about every two weeks for One piece?

    so he can take a rest for one week.

    not bad idea right?

    I dropped One Piece a long time ago, but I don't wish for anything bad to happen to Oda. Hopefully he'll recover soon and rest a bit before going back to his usual schedule.

    Sounds like they need to let the guy have a break and have someone else do the filler stuff.

    Oda needs to do the world a favor and just die already. Onepiece is a piece of shit and NEEDS to end already.

    He should just start getting the endgame going on the damn series so he can retire.

    One Piece is at the middle of story at most. The ending is far in the horizon.

    actually, he supposedly planned out the ending a long time ago.

    Then in the worst case scenario maybe he can give detailed notes to some other mangaka to finish it for him, a la Wheel of Time...

    Actually Oda had the ending in his head right from the start and its not like he doesn´t know what to do with his story anymore (like Miuara for example).

    it might even take longer depending on how things go. I recall one time, he stated that the Skypeia arc lasted a helluva lot longer than he was intending.

    But yeah, he's had a decade and a half of build-up now. Last thing we need is to rush him and have EVERYTHING resolved in a few measly chapters (or even one year, which is a respectable amount of time but still a small fraction of this series' lifespan). I've seen enough anime gecko endings to know that doing this often leads to pisspoor results at best.

    I would say give him a vacation, and make him expand his staff. I write comics too and I dont have a staff, but even I plan only making a few things at a time within my day and try to get the needed sleep each night. If he continues like this he will work into and early grave and his series will not see an ending.

    I feel sorry for the mangaka and hope that he makes a quick recovery, but feel happy that the crappy manga has been stopped.

    The context could suggest he'd say "One Piece"
