Overview
- Weekly Shonen Jump and the official One Piece staff said this week’s chapter is skipped due to Eiichiro Oda’s poor health.
- The editorial note apologized and explained that Issue 45 still lists One Piece in the contents and survey postcards because printing changes could not be made in time.
- The series is scheduled to resume in Issue 46, on sale October 14 in Japan (October 13 in many regions), with Chapter 1162 available on VIZ, Manga Plus, and Shonen Jump+.
- Officials added that Oda is recuperating well, as fans recall his previously reported health challenges including moderate diabetes, gout, and a 2023 eye surgery.
- Separately, the anime is on a two-week pause, with Episode 1146 expected to air on October 19, according to Beebom.
