The stress of the finale saga is hitting every One Piece fan. The series has reached its peak moment with shocking revelations, mysterious characters, and unexpected storylines, as featured in the Egghead Island arc of One Piece. However, this stress is not only affecting the fandom but also the creator of the series, Eiichiro Oda.
This was pointed out when fans found out that Oda had, yet again, submitted another incomplete chapter for the manga series. This is the fourth time since the beginning of the series that Oda has submitted an incomplete chapter with only thirteen pages. These frequently shortened manga chapters have got fans worried about the manga creator.
One Piece fans speculate that there is a chance that Oda’s health might have been affected because of his constant work on the narrative. There are many previous mangakas who have suffered a similar fate. This is why fans are concerned for the One Piece creator and want him to take proper rest.
Eiichiro Oda’s Fourth Incomplete Chapter
The One Piece manga creator is known for his consistency and dedication to his magnum opus. However, a few months ago, Oda broke his 26-year-old streak of giving complete chapters nonstop. He released the first incomplete Chapter 1098, with only thirteen pages, which came as a big shock to One Piece fans.
Ideally, the One Piece manga chapters have between 18 and 19 pages, which is why Oda had to apologize to the One Piece fanbase for submitting incomplete work. However, the streak continued, and Oda went on to submit three more incomplete chapters, with the last chapter being Chapter 1116, which also comprised thirteen pages.
Now, according to the popular One Piece fan page, @pewpiece on X, Oda is once again going to submit One Piece chapter 1119 with only thirteen pages. Not only that, there are reports of Oda taking a break after the chapter, as he will go on a one-week hiatus. Thus, there is a possibility that One Piece Chapter 1120 may come at a later date.
One Piece Fans Are Worried For Eiichiro Oda
For the past few months, Eiichiro Oda’s breaks and incomplete chapters have become more frequent than ever. Not only that, the mangaka himself has talked about his health concerns, which has made the fans worried for the manga creator.
As soon as the news about Oda once again submitting an incomplete chapter with only thirteen pages hit the internet, fans expressed their concern for the One Piece creator.
While some fans expressed concerns for Oda, others shared their faith in the manga creator and believed that he would come back stronger than ever.
It's concerning because this is the fourth time in the entire history of ONE PIECE that a chapter has been only 13 pages. Why wouldn't we be worried about Oda's health?

Oda will not fail! His health is important, so I'm glad that he is taking a break each week. Even though I like to see more One Piece content, i also want to know that he health is doing well. It okay to take a break. It doesn't mean it lazy. Hopefully, he gets better, though.

The concerns of One Piece fans are understandable as Oda has been working non stop on the story of One Piece for almost thirty years. The mangaka has rarely ever taken a hiatus or a break from the series for his own self. He needs to take care of himself and rest so that he can complete his life’s work.
