One Piece just came out of a hiatus, and will soon take another break. This has been a busy year for One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda. After Akira Toriyama died back in March, he took a break, probably due to the impact it had on him. Then he went to South Africa as a new season for the Netflix's One Piece live-action series was being shot. Later, another hiatus was announced, this time due to health concerns.
