"One Piece" Goes On Hiatus
[via]
The editorial department of Weekly Shonen Jump has announced that due to a sudden illness suffered by author Eiichiro Oda, One Piece will go on an unspecified hiatus.
While it is unclear how long the hiatus will last — either just one week or more — more details are expected to be known in the magazine’s March 25 issue. It is certain, though, that the manga’s current chapter will not make the March 18 issue.
For a weekly series that has been around for over 10 years and has published over 700 chapters, it comes as no surprise that the workload has started to take its toll on the author’s health.
Update: One Piece is expected to return in the March 25 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump.

Whenever someone says “I don’t like/hate One Piece because the artwork sucks” I’m all like:
Oh yeah, I guess you’re right, the art of this manga/anime is awful, particularly the backgrounds and architecture.
Clearly Oda has no idea what he’s doing considering the world of One Piece has no thought process behind it and lacks detail.
And the cover pages are just so dull.
It’s the same thing, everytime, there’s never any diversity.
Eiichiro Oda obviously has no sense of atmosphere or ambiance.
Or color.
And all of the characters are boring in design and look exactly the same.
Yep, the art of One Piece is pretty terrible. No hard work put into it what-so-ever.
